DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0034] The following description is provided to enable any person skilled in the art to practice the present application. The preferred embodiments described below are only examples of the present application, and other obvious modifications are possible.
[0035] As shown in Figure 2 and Figure 3 , a dumbbell facilitating the assembly and disassembly of weight blocks comprises a center rod 100 providing a hand holding area, two ends of the center rod 100 are connected with structureally identical mounting seats 300 having weight block mounting cavities, a base 400 for placing the overall dumbbell, and weight blocks 200 placed on the surface of the base 400. Rotating the center rod 100 can adjust the number of weight blocks 200 mounted in the mounting cavities of the mounting seats 300, thereby achieving the installation or disassembly of different weight blocks 200.
[0036] Specifically, as shown in Figure 1 , the mounting seat 300 is a long columnar shape, and a plurality of weight block mounting cavities 310 are arranged along the axial direction thereof. The mounting cavity 310 closest to the center rod 100 is regarded as the first mounting cavity, and the second, third, and Nth mounting cavities are sequentially arranged along the axial direction thereof. Rotating the center rod 100 once, the first mounting cavity is assembled and connected with the weight block 200, and rotating it again, the second mounting cavity is assembled and connected with the weight block 200 at the corresponding position. Through the rotation of the center rod 100, all mounting cavities 310 are sequentially assembled and connected with the corresponding weight blocks 200, until the center rod 100 is rotated one full circle, and all mounting cavities 310 are assembled and connected with the weight blocks 200. If it is necessary to disassemble the weight blocks 200, rotating the center rod 100 in the opposite direction can achieve the disassembly action.
[0037] The guide shaft body 500 is provided with a plurality of annular guide grooves on the outer circumferential surface, and the annular guide grooves are distributed along the axial direction. Each annular guide groove corresponds to one mounting cavity. The guide shaft body 500 is provided with an adapter 600 corresponding to the annular guide groove. The adapter 600 is used to realize the mounting of the counterweight 200 and the mounting seat 300. The adapter 600 is provided with a guide column 610. One end of the guide column 610 is matched with the corresponding annular guide groove. With the rotation of the guide shaft body 500, the guide column 610 drives the adapter 600 to change the direction of the annular guide groove, so as to realize the assembly of the counterweight 200.
[0038] In order to improve the connection firmness of the center rod 100 and the guide shaft body 500, and avoid the disconnection of the center rod 100 and the guide shaft body 500 during the rotation process, a square block 110 is additionally arranged at the end of the center rod 100. The end of the guide shaft body 500 is provided with a square through hole matched with the square block 110, so as to realize the connection and fixation of the two.
[0039] In the embodiment, as shown in Figures 4-6 The annular guide grooves are sequentially a first guide groove 510, a second guide groove 520, a third guide groove 530, a fourth guide groove 540 and a fifth guide groove 550 from the direction close to the center rod 100 to the direction away from the center rod 100. The first guide groove 510 is formed by a V-shaped section 511 and a first arc-shaped section 512. The opening of the V-shaped section 511 is directed to the end away from the center rod 100. The second guide groove 520 is formed by a U-shaped section 521 and a second arc-shaped section 522. The opening of the U-shaped section 521 is directed to the end away from the center rod 100. The opening width of the U-shaped section 521 is greater than the opening width of the V-shaped section 511, and the first guide groove 510 and the second guide groove 520 are staggered in profile, so as to avoid the coincidence of the two guide grooves, which causes the missing of the counterweight 200.
[0040] The inclined direction of the slope section 531 is consistent with the inclined direction of the vertical part of the U-shaped section 521, and the slope section 531 is located at one side of the opening of the U-shaped section 521; the fourth guide groove 540 is the same in structure as the second guide groove 520, and the opening directions are opposite, the openings of the fourth guide groove 540 and the second guide groove 520 are staggered and not corresponding, so as to avoid the problem of missing hanging; the fifth guide groove 550 is a zigzag shape formed by a plurality of V-shaped sections and a U-shaped section, and is used for hanging a compound weight 700, the weight of the compound weight 700 is less than the weight of the weight block 200, when the weight of one weight block 200 is light and the weight of two weight blocks 200 is heavy, the compound weight 700 is placed at the corresponding position of the fifth guide groove 550, so as to realize that the weight is between one weight block and two weight blocks, realize the selection of more weight, and improve the applicability of the dumbbell, and the dumbbell is more suitable for groups with more compound weight requirements.
[0041] It is explained here that the number of annular guide grooves can be adjusted according to the number of weight blocks 200 to be assembled; if the number of weight blocks 200 to be assembled is large, more annular guide grooves are added, and vice versa.
[0042] In the embodiment, as shown in Figure 1 The top of the weight block 200 is formed with a U-shaped notch 210, the U-shaped notch 210 is U-shaped, the vertical inner wall is formed with a concave arc, and the openings of the two side concave arcs are oppositely arranged to form a containing cavity for accommodating the adapter 600.
[0043] In the embodiment, the center rod 100 is further provided with an end plate 120 with a cavity at both ends, the opposite surfaces of the end plate 120 are engraved with weight adjustment marks, and the inner wall of the cavity of the end plate 120 is provided with blocking blocks 121 uniformly distributed along the circumferential surface, and there is a gap between the two adjacent blocking blocks 121; further comprising a locking block 800 matched with the gap, one end of the locking block 800 is fixedly connected with a vertical upward spring 810, the spring 810 is fixedly connected with the center rod 100, and the other end of the locking block 800 is in contact with an unlocking block (not shown in the figure) of the base 400; in the initial state, that is, when the weight block 400 is placed on the base 1, the bottom surface of the locking block 800 is in contact with the unlocking block, the unlocking block applies an upward force to the locking block 700, the locking block 800 is in a compressed state, and is away from the gap between the two blocking blocks 121, so that the center rod 100 can rotate; when the dumbbell is away from the base 400, the locking block 800 releases the elastic force downward under the action of the spring 810, the locking block 800 falls into the gap between the two blocking blocks 121, and the circumferential rotation of the center rod 100 is limited, so as to realize the locking effect of the center rod 100.
