Embodiment Construction

[0060] Various embodiments of the present disclosure are directed to adjustable weight kettlebells. The kettlebell may include one or more safety features to ensure that one or more weights of the kettlebell do not become dislodged from the kettlebell during exercise. In various embodiments, the kettlebell may include a selector rod that selectively couples each weight to the kettlebell based on the rotational position of the rod relative to the weight. To ensure that each weight is properly coupled to the kettlebell, the rod may selectively engage the base supporting the kettlebell. When the weight of the desired weight is properly coupled to the kettlebell, the kettlebell can be removed from the base and the bar locked in its rotational position to ensure that the bar does not rotate relative to the weight during the exercise.

Abstract

An adjustable weight kettlebell includes a body defining an internal cavity configured to receive one or more of a plurality of weights, and a weight selector assembly configured to selectively coupleone or more of the plurality of weights to the body. The weight selector assembly may include an actuator to enable a user to select one of a plurality of available weight settings. The weight selector assembly may be locked for adjustment when the kettlebell is removed from a support surface such as a base, thereby inhibiting inadvertent detachment of the weights from the kettlebell during exercise. The weight selector assembly may automatically shift to the closest weight settings upon release of the actuator and may automatically unlock upon placement of the kettlebell on the support surface such as the base, the bottom weight if not coupled to the kettlebell, or any other suitable support surface.

Description

technical field [0001] The present disclosure relates generally to exercise equipment, and more particularly to adjustable weight kettlebells. Background technique [0002] Kettlebells are used for various types of exercises such as deadlifts, knee lifts, lunges, presses, rows, snatches, and squats. Due to the variety of exercises that can be performed with kettlebells, users often require many kettlebells of different weights to perform an exercise routine. However, obtaining a kettlebell arrangement can be very expensive, and storing a kettlebell arrangement can require a lot of space. [0003] In response to at least these problems, a variety of adjustable kettlebells have been designed that allow the user to selectively adjust the kettlebell weight prior to exercising. For example, China Taiwan Patent Publication No. TW M534015U discloses a kettlebell with adjustable weight. Different weight arrangements are usually attached to kettlebells depending on the total kettl...
