Description

CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATION

This application claims priority of Taiwanese Patent Application No. 108121071, filed on Jun. 18, 2019.

FIELD

The disclosure relates to a fitness equipment, more particularly to a dumbbell assembly with adjustable weights.

BACKGROUND

Dumbbell is an exercise equipment for training hand muscles, and is usually equipped with a single weight which cannot be changed. If a user needs to adjust different exercise intensity, he/she needs to prepare many dumbbells with different weights simultaneously. This not only results in waste of money, but is also difficult to store.

A dumbbell assembly is disclosed in Taiwanese Patent Publication No. TW201725062, and mainly includes a base seat and a dumbbell. The dumbbell includes a handle and two weight units respectively disposed on two opposite ends of the handle. Each weight unit includes a plurality of hook discs rotatable along with the handle, and a plurality of weight blocks. Each hook disc has a hooking unit which includes at least one protruding portion and at least one gap besides the at least one protruding portion. Each weight block has a hooking protrusion. Rotating the handle can adjust the relative position between the at least one protruding portion and the at least one gap of the hook discs and the hooking protrusion, so that the weight blocks can be selectively mounted to the handle or detached from the handle so as to be placed in the receiving seat, thereby achieving the effect of adjusting the weights of the dumbbell.

Although the aforementioned dumbbell assembly can achieve its intended purpose, since each weight block is connected to a corresponding one of the hook discs through the hooking protrusion thereof, the weight of the weight block is thus concentrated on the hooking protrusion, and since the hooking protrusion is not connected as one piece with the main body of the weight block, if there are defects during making of the hooking protrusion and the main body of the weight block, the hooking protrusion is easily broken and removed from the main body of the weight block. If the breakage takes place during exercise, the weight block directly falls downward, and potential hazard may take place.

SUMMARY

Therefore, an object of the present disclosure is to provide a dumbbell assembly that is capable of alleviating at least one of the drawbacks of the prior art.

According to this disclosure, a dumbbell assembly comprises a base seat extending along a left-right direction, two weight units and a dumbbell. The base seat includes a main seat body having two receiving areas formed in a top surface thereof and spaced apart from each other in the left-right direction. Each receiving area has a plurality of receiving grooves arranged spaced apart from one another along the left-right direction. The weight units are respectively disposed in the receiving areas. Each weight unit includes a plurality of weight blocks received respectively and removably in the receiving grooves of a respective one of the receiving areas. Each weight block has at least one engaging hole.

The dumbbell includes a handle extending in the left-right direction, and two weight adjustment modules respectively disposed on two opposite ends of the handle and respectively corresponding to the weight units. Each weight adjustment module includes an insertion base defining a plurality of adjustment spaces arranged spaced apart from one another along the left-right direction, and a plurality of engaging units respectively received in the adjustment spaces and respectively corresponding to the weight blocks of a respective weight unit. Each engaging unit includes a drive component mounted on the handle, and at least one insertion pin resiliently connected to the drive component and corresponding to the at least one engaging hole. When the handle is rotated relative to the weight adjustment modules, the handle drives each engaging unit to move between an engaging state and a disengaging state.

When each engaging unit is in the engaging state, the at least one insertion pin is driven by the drive component to protrude out of the insertion base and engage with the at least one engaging hole in a corresponding one of the weight blocks, thereby connecting the insertion base with the corresponding weight block; and, when each engaging unit is in the disengaging state, the at least one insertion pin is retracted into the insertion base and is moved away from the at least one engaging hole in the corresponding one of the weight blocks, thereby disconnecting the insertion base with the corresponding weight block.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

Referring to FIGS. 1 to 3, a dumbbell assembly according to an embodiment of the present disclosure is shown to comprise a base seat 1, two weight units 2, and a dumbbell 3.

The base seat 1 extends along a left-right direction (X), and includes a main seat body 11, and two projections 13 protruding out of the main seat body 11. The main seat body 11 has two receiving areas 12 formed in a top surface thereof and spaced apart from each other in the left-right direction (X). Each receiving area 12 has three receiving grooves 121 arranged spaced apart from one another along the left-right direction (X). The projections 13 are located between the receiving areas 12. Specifically, each projection 13 is proximate to a respective one of the receiving areas 12, and has an inverted L-shaped body.

The weight units 2 are respectively disposed in the receiving areas 12. Each weight unit 2 includes three weight blocks 2 received respectively and removably received in the receiving grooves 121 of a respective one of the receiving areas 12. Each weight block 21 has a substantially U-shaped groove wall 211 defining an insertion groove 20 with an opening that faces upward, and two engaging holes 212 (only one is visible in FIG. 2) formed in two opposite ends of the groove wall 211 in proximity to an upper end thereof and spaced apart from each other along a front-rear direction (Y) transverse to the left-right direction (X). The weight blocks 21 of each weight unit 2 have different thicknesses and weights. An outermost one of the weight blocks 21 is the thinnest and the lightest, whereas an innermost one of the weight blocks 21 is the thickest and the heaviest.

The dumbbell 3 includes a handle 31, two weight adjustment modules 32, and two anti-rotation modules 33. The handle 31 extends in the left-right direction (X), and includes a grip portion 311 and a shaft portion 312 extending through the grip portion 311. The weight adjustment modules 32 are respectively mounted on two opposite ends of the shaft portion 312. The anti-rotation modules 33 are respectively connected to the weight adjustment modules 32.

Each weight adjustment module 32 includes a hollow insertion base 321, four substantially U-shaped limiting plates 322 disposed on a bottom portion of the insertion base 321 and spaced apart from one another along the left-right direction (X), three engaging units 323, 323′, 323″, a top cover 324, and three first elastic members 325. Each two adjacent limiting plates 322 cooperate with the bottom portion of the insertion base 321 to define amounting space 302. Thus, the bottom portion of the insertion base 321 and the limiting plates 322 cooperatively define three mounting spaces 302 spaced apart along the left-right direction (X). The insertion base 321 of each weight adjustment module 32 can be inserted into the insertion grooves 20 of the weight blocks 21 of the corresponding weight unit 2, such that the weight blocks 21 are respectively received in the mounting spaces 302. The insertion base 321 defines three adjustment spaces 301 arranged spaced apart from one another along the left-right direction (X) and respectively having openings that face upward.

The engaging units 323, 323′, 323″ of each weight adjustment module 32 are respectively disposed in the adjustment spaces 301 of the insertion base 321, and respectively correspond to the weight blocks 21 of each weight unit 2. Each engaging unit 323, 323′, 323″ includes a drive component 400 mounted on the shaft portion 312 of the handle 31, two insertion pins 500 respectively connected to front and rear sides of the drive component 400, and two second elastic members 600 respectively sleeved on the insertion pins 500. The drive component 400 of each engaging unit 323, 323′, 323″ has a drive block 41, 41′, 41″ sleeved on one of the ends of the shaft portion 312 and driven to rotate by the handle 31, and a driven block 42 superposed on and abutting against the drive block 41, 41′, 41″. The driven block 42 is driven to move up and down relative to the drive block 41, 41′ 41″ when the latter is rotated by the handle 31. For convenience of illustration, the drive block of the drive component 400 of the engaging unit 323 that is proximate to the grip portion 311 is represented by the reference numeral 41, the drive block of the drive component 400 of the engaging unit 323″ that is distal from the grip portion 311 is represented by the reference numeral 41″, and the drive block of the drive component 400 of the engaging unit 323′ that is disposed between the engaging units 323 and 323″ is represented by the reference numeral 41′.

Referring to FIGS. 4 to 7, the drive blocks 41, 41′, 41″ of the engaging units 323, 323′, 323″ have different shapes. The drive block 41, as shown in FIG. 5, has a substantially sector-shaped drive main body 411, five spaced-apart protruding portions 412 protruding outwardly and integrally from an outer periphery of the drive main body 411, and four positioning recesses 413 extending inwardly from the outer periphery thereof and each of which is located between two adjacent ones of the protruding portions 412. The drive block 41′, as shown in FIG. 6 has a substantially rectangular drive main body 411′, three protruding portions 412′ protruding outwardly and integrally from each short side of the drive main body 411′, and four positioning recesses 413′ each of which is located between two adjacent ones of the protruding portions 412′. The drive block 41″, as shown in FIG. 7, has an X-shaped drive main body 411″ including four spaced-apart arms 4111, four pairs of protruding portions 412″ each pair of which protrudes outwardly and integrally from a respective one of the arms 4111, and four positioning recesses 413″ each of which is located between a respective one of the pairs of protruding portions 412″.

FIG. 8 illustrates the drive blocks 41, 41′, 41″ of the engaging units 323, 323′, 323″ being sleeved on the shank portion 312 of the handle 31 and being overlapped in the left-right direction (X) (see FIGS. 1 and 2) with the protruding portions 412, 412′, 412″ of the drive blocks 41, 41′, 41″ blocking one another.

Referring again to FIGS. 4 to 7, the driven block 42 of each engaging unit 323, 323′, 323″ has a driven main body 421, and an abutment portion 422 protruding downwardly and integrally from the driven main body 421 and abutting against the drive block 41, 41′, 41″ of a corresponding one of the engaging units 323, 323′, 323″. The driven main body 421 has two curved guide notches 423 opposite to each other in the front-rear direction (Y). Each guide notch 423 is defined by a notch-defining surface 4231.

With reference to FIGS. 3 to 7, the insertion pins 500 of each engaging unit 323, 323′, 323″ are located in a corresponding one of the adjustment spaces 301. Each insertion pin 500 has a curved head portion 52 abutting against the notch-defining surface 4231 of a respective one of the guide notches 423, and a shank portion 51 extending outwardly from the head portion 52 along the front-rear direction (Y) and inserted into the insertion base 321 to position thereat. The second elastic members 600 of each engaging unit 323, 323′, 323″ are respectively sleeved on the shank portions 51 of the insertion pins 500. Each second elastic member 600 abuts between the head portion 52 and the insertion base 321.

The top cover 324 is mounted on the insertion base 321 and covers the adjustment spaces 301. Each first elastic member 325 is disposed between the top cover 324 and one of the driven blocks 42 of the engaging units 323, 323′, 323″, and elastically biases the one of the driven blocks 42 downwardly.

Referring to FIG. 12, in combination with FIG. 7, the engaging unit 323″ will be illustrated hereinafter. The engaging unit 323″ can be driven by rotation of the handle 31 to move between an engaging state and a disengaging state. When the engaging unit 323″ is moved from the disengaging state (see FIG. 7) to the engaging state (see FIG. 12), the drive block 41″ is rotated with one of the arms 4111 pushing upward the abutment portion 422 of the driven block 42 until the abutment portion 422 moves over one of the protruding portions 412″ and falls into and engages with the positioning recess 413″, thereby driving the driven main body 421 to move upward relative to the insertion base 321 and relative to the insertion pins 500. At this time, the insertion pins 500 are moved away from the respective guide notches 423 and are pushed by the notch-defining surfaces 4231 of the guide notches 423 to move until the shank portions 51 thereof protrude out of the insertion base 321 and engage with the respective engaging holes 212 of the weight block 21, thereby connecting the insertion base 321 with the weight block 21. Simultaneously, the first elastic member 325 is compressed by the driven main body 421 to store a restoring force, and presses downward the abutment portion 422 to abut against the positioning recess 413 and prevent the same from slipping therefrom, thereby fixing the engaging unit 323″ in the engaging state. The second elastic members 600 are compressed due to outward movement of the insertion pins 500, and store restoring forces.

To switch the engaging unit 323″ from the engaging state to the disengaging state, the handle 31 is rotated to drive rotation of the drive block 41″ relative to the driven block 42 so as to move the abutment portion 422 out of the positioning recess 413″ and move over the one of the protruding portions 412″ to a position between two adjacent ones of the arms 4111. At this time, the upward pushing force on the driven block 42 is released, and the restoring force of the first elastic member 325 is also released and biases the driven block 42 to move downward relative to the insertion pins 500 to fix the engaging unit 323″ in the disengaging state. At the same time, the restoring forces of the second elastic members 600 are also released and respectively bias the head portions 52 of the insertion pins 500 to move into the respective guide notches 423 and gradually retract the shank portions 51 of the insertion pins 500 into the insertion base 321 and away from the respective engaging holes 212 of the weight block 21, thereby disconnecting the insertion base 321 with the weight block 21.

Since the relative positions of the drive blocks 41, 41′, 41″ are fixed, when the drive blocks 41, 41′, 41″ are driven to rotate by the handle 31, specific areas of the drive blocks 41, 41′, 41″ can be selected to face upward to a state that the protruding portions 412, 412′, 412″ can interact with the abutment portions 422 of the driven blocks 42. As such, the engaging units 323 can be switched respectively and independently between the engaging state and the disengaging state.

Referring again to FIGS. 2 and 3, the anti-rotation modules 33 are mounted on the two opposite ends of the shaft portion 312 of the handle 31, and respectively face the weight adjustment modules 32. Each anti-rotation module 33 includes an outer casing 331, and a rotary disc 332 rotatably fixed to the outer casing 331. Before the insertion base 321 of each weight adjustment module 32 of the dumbbell 3 is inserted into the insertion grooves 20 of the weight blocks 21 of the corresponding weight unit 2, the anti-rotation modules 33 can prevent rotation of the handle 31 relative to the weight adjustment modules 32; and, after the insertion base 321 of each weight adjustment module 32 of the dumbbell 3 is inserted into the insertion grooves 20 of the weight blocks 21 of the corresponding weight unit 2, the anti-rotation modules 33 are activated by the respective projections 13 so as to permit rotation of the rotary disc 332 and the handle 31 relative to the weight adjustment modules 32 for switching the states of the engaging units 323, 323′, 323″. Since the anti-rotation modules 33 are not the main aspect of this disclosure, a detailed description thereof will be omitted herein.

With reference to FIGS. 1 and 2, to use this embodiment, the weight units 2 are first placed in the receiving areas 12, after which the insertion bases 321 of the weight adjustment modules 32 of the dumbbell 3 are inserted downwardly into the insertion grooves 20 of the weight blocks 21 so as to be disposed at a state shown in FIG. 1. At this time, the projections 13 of the base seat 1 respectively activate the anti-rotation modules 33, so that the user can rotate the handle 31 relative to the weight adjustment modules 32.

With reference to FIGS. 4 to 7, when the user intends to use the lightest weight, that is, the dumbbell 3 is not connected with any of the weight blocks 21, the user rotates the grip portion 311 of the handle 31 for adjusting the drive main body 411, 411′, 411″ such that the protruding portions 412, 412′, 412″ thereof do not face upward, so that all of the engaging units 323, 323′, 323″ are in the disengaging state. When the user lifts up the handle 31, all the weight blocks 21 are not connected to the weight adjustment modules 32 and all remain in the respective receiving grooves 121, so that the user can obtain the lightest weight of the dumbbell 3.

Referring to FIGS. 9 to 12, if the user intends to change the weight, for instance, he/she intends to connect only the outermost weight blocks 21 of the weight units 2 to obtain the second lightest weight, the dumbbell assembly of this disclosure is first restored to the state shown in FIG. 1, after which the grip portion 311 of the handle 31 is rotated to move one of the pairs of the protruding portions 412″ of the drive blocks 41″ to face upward, and only the most outermost engaging units 323″ are switched to the engaging state, while the other engaging units 323 and 323′ remain in the disengaging state. After the adjustment, when the user lifts up the handle 31, he/she can obtain the desired weight of the outermost weight blocks 21.

Referring to FIGS. 13 to 16, the handle 31 is rotated to adjust the protruding portions 412′ on one of the short sides of the drive main bodies 411′ of the drive blocks 41′ to face upward, so that only the middle ones of the weight blocks 21 can be connected to the weight adjustment modules 32, or referring to FIGS. 17 to 20, only the innermost ones of the weight blocks 21 can be connected to the weight adjustment modules 32, so that different weight effects can be achieved by connecting with different weight blocks 21.

Referring to FIGS. 21 to 24, similarly, by rotating the grip portion 311 of the handle 31, the middle engaging units 323′ and the innermost engaging units 323 can be simultaneously switched to the engaging state, while the outermost engaging units 323″ are switched to the disengaging state, so that each weight adjustment module 32 is connected with two weight blocks 21, thereby achieving a heavier weight. Of course, the grip portion 311 of the handle 31 may be rotated such that only the outermost engaging units 323″ and the middle engaging units 323′ are simultaneously switched to the engaging state, or only the outermost engaging units 323″ and the innermost engaging units 323 are simultaneously switched to the engaging state, so that different combinations of two weight blocks 21 connected to the weight adjustment modules 32 can be achieved.

Referring to FIGS. 25 to 28, the grip portion 311 of the handle 31 is rotated such that specific protruding portions 412, 412′, 412″ of the drive main body 411, 411′, 411″ face upward, so that the engaging units 323, 323′, 323″ are all switched to the engaging state, and all the weight blocks 21 are connected to the weight adjustment modules 32, thereby achieving the heaviest weight of the dumbbell 3.

It is worth to mention herein that, in this embodiment, the weight blocks 21 of each weight unit 2 have different widths in the left-right direction (X) and different weights. The widths of the receiving grooves 121 corresponding to the weight blocks 21 are also correspondingly changed. However, in practice, it is not limited thereto. The sizes of the weight blocks 21 and the receiving grooves 121 may be the same, and will not affect the effect of weight adjustment. Moreover, the number of the weight blocks 21 of each weight unit 2 is not limited to three, it may be two or four. Matching the number corresponding to the engaging units 323, 323′, 323″ and adjusting the number of the protruding portions 412, 412′, 412″ of the drive blocks 41, 41′, 41″ and the structures of the overlapping and non-overlapping portions can similarly achieve the effect of weight adjustment.

It should be noted herein that, each weight block 21 has two engaging holes 212, and each engaging unit 323, 323′, 323″ has two insertion pins 500 insertable into the respective engaging holes 212 in the front-rear direction (Y), apart from providing more stable connection, the balance of the overall structure can also be maintained. However, in practice, it is not limited thereto. In other variations of this embodiment, each weight block 21 may have only one engaging hole 212, and each engaging unit 323, 323′, 323″ may have only one insertion pin 500 insertable into the engaging hole 212. The connection effect between the weight adjustment module 32 and the weight block 21 can still be achieved.

In sum, the effect of the dumbbell assembly of this disclosure resides in: through the structural design of the protruding portions 412, 412′, 412″ of the drive blocks 41, 41′, 41″, all or a portion of the engaging units 323, 323′, 323″ can be driven to the engaging state or the disengaging state so as to facilitate the user in selecting different weights of weight blocks 21, thereby achieving the purpose of adjusting the weight of the dumbbell 3. Further, the connection of each engaging unit 323, 323′, 323″ with each weight block 21 is achieved through the insertion of the insertion pins 500 into the engaging holes 212 of the weight block 21, replacing the existing weight block which requires an additional connection with a hook protrusion before it could be connected to the dumbbell, and avoiding the situation where the hook protrusion may break and the weight block may detach. Moreover, each weight block 21 is connected with two insertion pins 500, so even if one of the insertion pins 500 is broken, the weight block 21 will not drop to the ground immediately. Anew insertion pin 500 replaces the broken one, and there is no need to replace the entire weight block 21. Not only the weight adjustment modules 32 and the weight blocks 21 can be safely connected to each other, but also the maintenance cost can be significantly reduced.

While the disclosure has been described in connection with what is considered the exemplary embodiment, it is understood that this disclosure is not limited to the disclosed embodiment but is intended to cover various arrangements included within the spirit and scope of the broadest interpretation so as to encompass all such modifications and equivalent arrangements.
