Abstract
Description
- The invention relates to the filed of adjustable barbells or dumbbells or exercise devices. More specifically, the invention relates to an adjustable exercise device comprising a handle including two ends and a plurality of weights each including an opening for engaging with the end of the handle.
- Such adjustable exercise device are generally known in the art.
- Typical dumbbells comprise a number of weight plates to be attached onto the ends of the handle. However, the weight plates or weight members may not be easily and quickly attached onto or disengaged from the handle shaft or handle bar.
- The inventiona aims at improving an adjustable exercise device in respect of attachment and detachment of the weights.
- This technical problem is solved by an adjustable exercise device as defined in
claim 1. Advantageous embodiments are indicated in further claims. - The invention provides an adjustable exercise device, e.g. dumbbell, wherein weight members can be easily and quickly attached to the weight carrier or handle or disengaged therefrom.
- In the drawings
- FIG. 1
- is a partial exploded view of an adjustable dumbbell;
- FIGS. 2, 7
- are perspective views of the adjustable dumbbell;
- FIGS. 3, 4, 5, 6
- are partial perspective views of the dumbbell;
- FIGS. 8, 9

- FIG. 10
- is a perspective view illustrating the other arrangement of the adjustable dumbbell.
-
FIGS. 1 to 4 show an adjustable exercise device, by example, in the form of a dumbbell. The adjustable exercise device can also be e.g. a barbell. - The dumbbell or
exercise device 1 comprises ahandle 10 including ahand grip 11 having twoends 12 and acompartment 14. Twocarriers 20 each include atube 21 attached to theends 12 of thehandle 10 with apin 15, aninner anchor plate 22 having an outer diameter greater than that of thetube 21, and one or more (such as three) notches or cut-offportions 23 for forming a non-circular or triangular cross section. Thecarriers 20 each include a chamber 24 (FIG. 1 ), and one ormore slots 25 located in the cut-offportion 23 and communicative with thechamber 24, thepins 15 are engaged with the anchor plate 22 (FIGS. 3, 6 ) for securing thetubes 21 of thecarriers 20 to thehandle 10. - A
latch 30 includes ashank 31 engaged into thetube 21 and having a bore 32 (FIGS. 1 ,4-5 ) for receiving thehandle 10, and one or more (such as two opposite)grooves 33 for engaging with thepin 15 and for limiting thelatch 30 to rotate relative to thecarrier 20 and thehandle 10. Thelatch 30 includes aknob 34 at one end or outer end of theshank 31 and having an outer diameter greater than that of theshank 31, and having an outer contour similar to that of thetube 21 of the carrier 20 (FIGS. 2-3 ,8 ), and thelatch 30 is rotatable relative to thecarrier 20 and thehandle 10 to an interlock or crisscross position (FIGS. 6-7 , and9 ). - The
latch 30 includes one or more (such as three) rows oftongues 35 aligned with theslots 25 of thecarrier 20 for selectively extending out through theslots 25 of the carrier 20 (FIGS. 6 ,9 ), or engaged in thetube 21 of the carrier 20 (FIGS. 3 ,8 ). A number ofweights 40 each include anopening 41 formed in the central and having a non-circular or triangular cross section similar to that of thetube 21 for engaging with thetube 21 and for preventing theweight 40 from being rotated relative to thecarrier 20 and thehandle 10. - In operation, the required weights 40 (
FIGS. 3 ,8 ) may be engaged onto or disengaged from thecarrier 20 when theknob 34 of thelatch 30 is aligned with thetube 21 of thecarrier 20 and when thetongues 35 of thelatch 30 are engaged in thetube 21. After the requiredweights 40 are engaged onto thecarrier 20, theknob 34 of thelatch 30 may be rotated relative to thecarrier 20 and thehandle 10 to the interlock position (FIGS. 6-7 ,9 ), and thetongues 35 of thelatch 30 are extended out through theslots 25 of thecarrier 20 and engaged with theweights 40 for locking theweights 40 to thecarrier 20 and thehandle 10. As shown inFIG. 10 , the length or dimension of thehandle 101 and/or theweights 40 may be enlarged to form and to act as a barbell. - A
