(DE19615392-C1)      The cycle ergonometer includes a program-controlled drive motor which is programmed to vary the pivot points of a carrier either continuously or stepwise. A seat or seat-leaning unit is mounted on a base frame via a carrier pivotable about an axis parallel to the axle of a pedal crank unit. The carrier can be fixed in a pivoted position.    Different working pivot positions can be used. The carrier pivot axis is arranged on or near the pedal crank unit axle so that the mean distance between the seat surface and the crank axle is essentially constant for the different pivot positions.    ADVANTAGE -   The relatively simple device provides a wider range of training facilities.    (DE29623281-U1)      The cycle ergonometer includes a program-controlled drive motor which is programmed to vary the pivot points of a carrier either continuously or stepwise. A seat or seat-leaning unit (SL) is mounted on a base frame via a carrier (4) pivotable about an axis (Z) parallel to the axle (3.1) of a pedal crank unit (3). The carrier can be fixed in a pivoted position.    Different working pivot positions can be used. The carrier pivot axis is arranged on or near the pedal crank unit axle so that the mean distance between the seat surface (8) and the crank axle is essentially constant for the different pivot positions.
