This application claims priority to Taiwan Application Serial Numbers 106211006 and 106211007, both filed Jul. 26, 2017, which are herein incorporated by reference.
The present disclosure relates to an exercising device. More particularly, the present disclosure relates to a roller exercising device and a set of exercising devices including the roller exercising device.
Along with the prevalence of the fitness industry, various exercising devices have been available on the market, and some of them try to draw attentions from consumers by providing novel exercising ways. However, the exercising ways provided by these devices are usually highly limited, such that the users cannot use them to perform various movements, and hence the variations and fun will be less.
For example, a conventional push-up bar is usually configured with an integrally formed support (or a rotary plate) and a handle portion, wherein the support is used to stand on the floor, and the handle connected with the support (or the rotary plate) is used for the user to hold and pushes the floor via the support (or the rotary plate), such that the user may perform a push-up operation. However, the conventional push-up bar is difficult for the user to perform the other movement, and hence less variations can be achieved. Besides, after the conventional push-up bar has been used for a while, the user may not be willing to use it because the exercising way thereof is less interesting.
For another example, a conventional ab-roller usually has two handles and a roller that can pivotally rotate between the handles. The user may hold the handles with both hands and push out the conventional ab-roller out in a standing position or kneeling position. Next, the user may pull the conventional ab-roller back to be back to the standing position or kneeling position again, such that the training effects can be achieved. However, it is still difficult for the user to use the conventional ab-roller to perform other movements, and hence less variability can be achieved as well.
Therefore, to the people having ordinary skills in the art, it is important to design an exercising device that can provide less limitation, more variability, and more fun.

In one embodiment, a distance between the female buckle 250a and the female buckle 250b may be wider than a palm for facilitating the user to hold. Besides, the female buckle 250a and the female buckle 250b may correspond to the male buckle 130a and the male buckle 130b of the first roller exercising device 100 shown in
See
The second roller exercising device 100′ may be the same as the first roller exercising device 100. In this case, the male buckle 130a and the male buckle 130b of the first roller exercising device 100 may respectively buckle the female buckle 140a ′ and the female buckle 140b ′ of the second roller exercising device 100′. Meanwhile, the male buckle 130a ′ of the second roller exercising device 100′ may buckle the female buckle 140a of the first roller exercising device 100, such that the first roller exercising device 100 and the second roller exercising device 100′ may be combined with each other to form a roller exercising device 300 in a face-to-face way.
Moreover, the connecting rod 320 may penetrate the first central through hole 112 and the second central through hole 122 of the first roller exercising device 100 and penetrate the first central through hole (not labelled) and the second central through hole (not labelled) of the second roller exercising device 100′, such that the roller exercising device 300 may pivotally rotate on the connecting rod 320.
In one embodiment, reeds 322a and 322b may be disposed on the connecting rod 320, and two ends of the connecting rod 320 may form an inserting portion 324a and an inserting portion 324b. In this case, the handle 310a and the handle 310b may sleeve on the two ends of the connecting rod 320. Specifically, the inserting portion 324a and the inserting portion 324b of the connecting rod 320 may respectively insert the chambers (not labelled) of the handle 310a and the handle 310b, and the reeds 322a and 322b may be respectively buckled by the buckle portions (not labelled) of the handle 310a and the handle 310b.
In this way, the roller exercising device 300, the connecting rod 320, the handle 310a, and the handle 310b may be combined as the exercising device 300′ for the user to perform a rolling operation. For example, the user may use the exercising device 300′ based on the way of using the conventional ab-roller. That is, the user may hold the handle 310a and the handle 310b with both hands and push out the exercising device 300′ out in a standing position or kneeling position.
