Abstract
An illuminating hand-shaking exerciser with a triple rotating axle mainly comprises a main shell having internal rotary collars connected to shells by an axle. When two semi-spherical covers of two sets of matching shells are closed against each other, a space is provided for internal rotary collars. One shell holds several lighting coils. The internal rotary collars are placed in the order of large, medium and small collars. The small collar has a groove at inner edge to lock an inertial magnetic weight inside. When the user grasps the shell and shakes it around, the large, medium and small collars will rotate three-dimensionally. Further, due to inertial rotation by the inertial magnetic weight inside the small collar, the entire exerciser will shake vigorously. Meanwhile, the lighting coils will illuminate due to inertial rotation of the magnet. Thus, the exerciser provides hand exercise with entertaining effect of illumination.
Description




FIELD OF THE INVENTION




The present invention is related to an illuminating hand-shaking exerciser with a triple rotating axle, particularly, a hand-shaking exerciser that has internal rotary collars capable of three-dimensional rotation and illumination.




BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION




Among various kinds of leisure activities, indoor bodybuilding exercise has become widely accepted. No matter in a bodybuilding exercise room or at home, almost all kinds of exercise equipment can be used in leisure time for the purpose of bodybuilding. However the bodybuilding equipment has both complicated structure and expensive cost. Further, the equipment has a rather large size that would result in disadvantages such as waste of space during placement or storage.




In view of this and based on the need of a bodybuilding equipment that can be used in leisure time, the inventor for the present invention has achieved an illuminating hand-shaking exerciser with internal rotary collars after very careful thought and accumulation of many years of experience in research and development.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION




Please refer to

FIGS. 1

to


3


. The present invention is mainly formed by connecting a shell


1


with internal rotary collars


2


at axle. The shell


1


is formed by combining two matching shells


11


,


12


. The matching shells


11


,


12


are in butterfly shape that is formed by two semi-spherical covers


111


,


121


and handles


112


,


122


of their extension. The semi-spherical covers


111


,


121


of the matching shells


11


,


12


have pivot holes


113


,


123


at the center of inner edge and convex beads


114


,


124


at center of the outer surface. The semi-spherical cover


111


of the matching shell


11


has a holder


115


for placing and positioning a magnet


3


or the above-mentioned lighting coils


4


.




The above-mentioned internal rotary collars


2


are formed in order by a large collar


21


, a medium collar


22


and a small collar


23


. The large collar


21


is positioned by pivots


212


through passages


211


, so that the two pivots protrude beyond the outer edge of the large collar


21


and connect to the pivot holes


113


,


123


on the semi-spherical covers


111


,


121


of the matching shells


11


,


12


for the main shell


1


. As a result, the large collar


21


can rotate inside the space created by closing the two semi-spherical covers


111


,


121


for the main shell


1


. Further, the large collar


21


has two pivot holes


213


at the position perpendicular to the pivots


212


on inner edge, which are used to connect to the medium collar


22


with two corresponding passages


221


and pivots


222


. The two pivots


222


protrude beyond the outer edge of the medium collar


22


and insert into the pivot holes


213


on the large collar


21


, so the medium collar


22


can rotate in the large collar


21


. The small collar


23


has two corresponding passages


231


and pivots


232


that protrude beyond the outer edge of the small collar


23


and connect with the medium collar


22


through the pivot holes


223


. So the small collar


22


can rotate in the medium collar


21


.




Further, the above-mentioned small collar


23


has an inertial weight on the inner surface, which can be a magnet


3


or lighting coils


4


. If the inertial weight is a magnet


3


, a groove


233


can be installed on the inner surface of the small collar


23


for locking the magnet


3


(as shown in FIG.


4


), which corresponds to the lighting coils


4


(as shown in

FIG. 3

) in the holder


115


of the above-mentioned matching shell


11


. If the inertial weight is lighting coil


4


, the small collar


23


can further has a gravitational weight


234


on inner surface for incorporating several lighting coils


4


(as shown in FIG.


5


), which corresponds to the magnet


3


(as shown in

FIG. 6

) in the holder


115


of the above-mentioned matching shell


11


. Thus, when the small collar


23


rotates to position the magnet


3


to the lighting coil


4


, the lighting coil


4


will light.




It is known from the above that the large collar


21


, the medium collar


22


and the small collar


23


in order can be connected to the two semi-spherical covers


111


,


121


for the main shell


1


to rotate within the internal space. Besides, the small collar


23


has an inertial weight on the inner surface. When the user grasps the two handles


112


,


122


of the main shell


1


by hands and rotate the exerciser around a circle, the large collar


21


, the medium collar


22


and the small collar


23


in the main shell


1


can make three-dimensional rotation. Further, the inertial weight in the small collar


23


produces an inertial rotation when the user rotates the exerciser. As a result, a vibrational effect is given to the entire exerciser. This is in accordance with the convex beads


114


,


124


at the center of the outer surface of the two semi-spherical covers


111


,


121


for the main shell


1


to achieve a massaging effect. Further, the interaction between the magnet


3


and the lighting coil


4


in the main shell


1


is used for the lighting coil to light. No matter it is the inertial rotary magnet


3


to be positioned to the lighting coil


4


or the stationary magnet


3


to be positioned to the lighting coil


4


, the exerciser can make the lighting coil


4


to generate attractive light of entertaining effect. Therefore, the present invention in practical application can combine a massaging effect on hand exercise with entertaining effect of illumination, so it certainly has the features in both progressiveness and practical use.
