Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of dumbbell technology, and more specifically, to a multifunctional dumbbell with adjustable spacing. Background Technology

[0002] A dumbbell is a type of fitness equipment, typically consisting of two equally weighted discs (dumbbell plates) connected by a short bar (dumbbell handle). The design of dumbbells allows users to perform various strength training, muscle building, and conditioning exercises by holding them. The weight of dumbbells can be adjusted to meet individual needs, ranging from a few pounds to hundreds of pounds, to satisfy different training intensities and objectives.

[0003] Patent CN219815167U discloses a dumbbell comprising: multiple dumbbell plates, a support portion, and an operating portion. The operating portion is rotatably connected to the support portion so that the support portion can controllably support one or more dumbbell plates. The dumbbell further includes a limiting disc connected to the operating portion and a first positioning member and a second positioning member connected to the support portion. The outer side of the limiting disc includes multiple limiting grooves arranged circumferentially, and the inner side of the limiting disc includes multiple limiting slots arranged circumferentially. The first positioning member and the second positioning member are detachably connected to the limiting slots. Applying this technical solution can reduce the risk of dumbbell plates slipping off.

[0004] Although the device has many benefits, it still has the following problems: While the dumbbell can reduce the risk of the dumbbell plates slipping, most dumbbells on the market are of a fixed structure and cannot adjust the spacing of the dumbbell plates according to the user's body size, strength level or training needs. This means that users need to buy dumbbells of various sizes to meet different training needs, which increases the economic burden and storage space requirements. Utility Model Content

[0026] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0027] Please see Figure 1-5 This utility model provides a technical solution:

[0028] An adjustable-gap multi-functional dumbbell includes a dumbbell bar 1, with two symmetrically distributed dumbbell plates 2 on the outer surface of the dumbbell bar 1. Each dumbbell plate 2 has a locking block 4 on its outer side, and locking rings 3 on the adjacent outer surfaces of the two dumbbell plates 2. The dumbbell bar 1 also includes:

[0029] Two sets of adjustable locking components are located on the outer surface of the locking block 4 and are used to fix the locking block 4 to the dumbbell bar 1.

[0030] A snap-fit ​​assembly, located on the outer surface of the dumbbell bar 1 and connected to the locking ring 3, is used to drive the locking ring 3 to press against the outer surface of the dumbbell plate 2, and to move the locking block 4 on the dumbbell bar 1.

[0031] Furthermore, the adjustable locking assembly includes a movable post 7, a slot 10, a snap-fit ​​block 11, and a connecting post 12. The connecting post 12 is inserted into the inside of the locking block 4, and the movable post 7 is slidably connected inside the connecting post 12. Two symmetrically distributed snap-fit ​​blocks 11 are rotatably connected to the outer surface of the movable post 7. Two symmetrically distributed slots 10 are opened on the outer surface of the connecting post 12. The two snap-fit ​​blocks 11 are movably connected to the corresponding slots 10. After the two connecting posts 12 move the position of the slots 10, the two snap-fit ​​blocks 11 unfold.

[0032] Furthermore, a return spring 14 is elastically connected to the outer surface of the movable column 7. The return spring 14 is located inside the connecting column 12. A compression spring 13 is elastically connected to the end of the movable column 7. The compression spring 13 is elastically connected to the bottom inner wall of the connecting column 12. The movable column 7 is pushed further, causing the movable column 7 to squeeze the compression spring 13.

[0033] Furthermore, the outer surface of the connecting post 12 is provided with a first thread 9, and a threaded block 8 is threadedly connected to the outer surface of the connecting post 12. The threaded block 8 is located above the locking block 4. By rotating the threaded block 8, the threaded block 8 moves to the top of the locking block 4 under the cooperation of the first thread 9.

[0034] Furthermore, the outer surface of the dumbbell bar 1 is provided with multiple equidistant connecting holes 5. Two connecting posts 12 are inserted into the corresponding connecting holes 5. The connecting posts 12 are inserted into the locking block 4 and then pass through the corresponding connecting holes 5 on the dumbbell bar 1.

[0035] Furthermore, the snap-fit ​​assembly includes a groove 6 and a second thread 15. Two symmetrically distributed second threads 15 are formed on the outer surface of the dumbbell bar 1. Two locking rings 3 are threadedly connected to the corresponding second threads 15. Multiple intersecting grooves 6 are formed on the outer surface of the dumbbell bar 1. The two second threads 15 are located on both sides of the grooves 6. By rotating the locking ring 3, it moves to the outer surface of the dumbbell plate 2 under the cooperation of the second threads 15. With the cooperation of the locking block 4 and the locking ring 3, the dumbbell plate 2 is fixed on the dumbbell bar 1, and the spacing between the two dumbbell plates 2 can be adjusted. The multiple grooves 6 can increase friction and facilitate user use.

[0036] Working principle: When the operator needs to use this adjustable-gap multi-functional dumbbell, and needs to adjust the position of the dumbbell plates 2, first move the locking block 4 on the dumbbell bar 1 to the appropriate position. Then, insert the connecting post 12 into the locking block 4 and pass it through the corresponding connecting hole 5 on the dumbbell bar 1. Then, push the movable post 7 inside the connecting post 12. During the movement, the movable post 7 compresses the spring 13. During the movement, the return spring 14 pulls the movable post 7. The locking block 11 fits against the inner wall of the connecting post 12. As the two connecting posts 12 move to the position of the slot 10, the two locking blocks 11 unfold. Then, rotate the threaded block 8 so that it moves to the top of the locking block 4 under the engagement of the first thread 9, thereby connecting the connecting post 12 with the locking block 4. Continue to push the movable post 7 so that it squeezes and compresses the spring 13. Then, the two snap-fit ​​blocks 11 are retracted into the connecting post 12 through the slot 10, thus enabling disassembly. Then, rotate the locking ring 3 so that it moves to the outer surface of the dumbbell plate 2 under the engagement of the second thread 15. With the engagement of the locking block 4 and the locking ring 3, the dumbbell plate 2 is fixed on the dumbbell bar 1, and the spacing between the two dumbbell plates 2 can be adjusted. The multiple grooves 6 can increase friction and facilitate user use.

[0037] The foregoing has shown and described the basic principles, main features, and advantages of this utility model. Those skilled in the art should understand that this utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. The embodiments and descriptions in the specification are merely preferred examples and are not intended to limit the utility model.
