This application claims the priority benefit of Chinese application serial no. 202323473474.1, filed on Dec. 19, 2023. The entirety of the above-mentioned patent application is hereby incorporated by reference herein and made a part of this specification.
The present disclosure relates to the field of fitness equipment, and in particular, to a pull rope connecting device and a fitness accessory.
At present, many sets of fitness equipments for strength exercise include pull bars. When a user performs strength exercise, the user holds the pull bar and pulls it to drive a pull rope, so as to provide a resistance to a motor connected to the pull rope, achieving an effect of strength exercise.
Chinese patent No. CN218961688U provides a pull rope connecting device. The pull rope connecting device sleeves a pull bar, and the pull bar is provided with a plurality of plugging holes spaced from one another. The pull rope connecting device includes a ringlike main body and an elastic plug; the elastic plug includes a sliding block and an elastic member; the sliding block is slidably arranged on the ringlike main body, and a plugging column is arranged on an inner side of the sliding block; the elastic member is in contact with the sliding block and the ringlike main body respectively; and the elastic member is configured to drive the plugging column to be plugged into the plugging hole, so as to lock the pull rope connecting device on the pull bar. When a connection position between the pull rope and the pull bar needs to be adjusted, the plugging column is pulled outwards and removed from the plugging hole, and then the pull rope connecting device is moved to align the plugging column and plug it into the plugging holes at different positions. However, as the degree of freedom of the pull rope connecting device in a circumferential direction of the pull bar is not limited, the pull rope connecting device easily rotates during movement, making it difficult to align the plugging column with the plugging hole.

The pull bar 1 is provided with a guide slot 11 and a plurality of location holes 12 that the guide slot 11 and location holes 12 are connected. And the plurality of location holes 12 are arranged at intervals in an extension direction of the guide slot 11.
The pull rope connecting device 2 is provided with a connecting part 2111, a guide block 221, and a positioning column 231; the connecting part 2111 is configured to be connected to a pull rope; the guide block 221 is slidably plugged into the guide slot 11 to limit rotation of the pull rope connecting device 2 relative to the pull bar 1; the positioning column 231 is movably arranged; and the positioning column 231 can be plugged into or removed from the location holes 12.
Through the above structural design, when the positioning column 231 is removed from the location hole 12, the pull rope connecting device 2 can slide on the pull bar 1 to adjust a connection position between the pull rope connecting device 2 and the pull bar 1. Furthermore, in a sliding process mentioned above, the guide block 221 of the pull rope connecting device 2 slides in the guide slot 11; the cooperation between the guide block 221 and the guide slot 11 limits the rotation of the pull rope connecting device 2 relative to the pull bar 1, and the arrangement positions of the plurality of location holes 12 in the extension direction of the guide slot 11 are fixed. When the pull rope connecting device 2 slides to an adjusted connection position, automatic quick alignment can be achieved under the action of an elastic member, and an angle of the pull rope connecting device 2 does not need to be adjusted by rotation, which makes it more convenient to align the positioning column 231 with the corresponding location hole 12 on the adjusted connection position; and the positioning column 231 is plugged into the corresponding location hole 12 to lock the pull rope connecting device 2.
A region, which is provided with the guide slot 11 and the location holes 12 on the pull bar 1 is named as the adjustment region. The pull bar 1 includes two adjustment regions, and the two adjustment regions are respectively located at two ends of the pull bar 1. There are two groups of pull rope connecting devices 2 which slidably sleeve the two adjustment regions respectively. When any pull rope connecting device 2 slides on pull bar 1, a distance between the two pull rope connecting devices 2 can be adjusted to adapt to users with different shoulder widths, so as to ensure the exercise effect.
In other embodiments, the fitness accessory can also be provided with only one pull rope connecting device 2. The connecting part 2111 configured to be connected to the pull rope on the pull rope connecting device 2 is a mobile connecting part 2111, and a fixed connecting part 2111 is arranged on the pull bar 1. When the pull rope connecting device 2 slides, a distance between the mobile connecting part 2111 and the fixed connecting part 2111 can be adjusted to adapt to the users with different shoulder widths.
The guide slot 11 is linear and extends in an axial direction of the pull bar 1. When the pull rope connecting device 2 slides, the distance between the two pull rope connecting devices 2 can be quickly adjusted. In other embodiments, the guide slot 11 can also be arc-shaped or threaded.
The pull bar 1 is linear. In other embodiments, the pull bar 1 can also be curved.
The location holes 12 extend in a circumferential direction of the pull bar 1, and the positioning column 231 can be rotatably arranged. A rotation direction of the positioning column 231 is the circumferential direction of the pull bar 1. The positioning column 231 is rotated to be plugged into or removed from the location holes 12. For example, when the positioning column 231 is clockwise rotated to be plugged into the location holes 12, and then the positioning column 231 is anticlockwise rotated to be removed from the location holes 12.
In other embodiments, the location holes 12 extend in a radial direction of the pull bar 1, and the location holes 12 are concavely formed in a bottom surface of the guide slot 11. The positioning column 231 is movably arranged. A movement direction of the positioning column 231 is the radial direction of the pull bar 1. The positioning column 231 is pushed inwards to be plugged into the location holes 12, and the positioning column 231 is pulled outwards to be removed from the location holes 12.
