Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of fitness equipment technology, and in particular to a pull rope connector. Background Technology

[0002] In fitness equipment, especially strength training devices, resistance bands (also known as training ropes) are used. One end of the resistance band is fixed to the motor, and the other end connects to a resistance band connector. In current technology, the resistance band and connector are often glued together. While this prevents separation, it makes disassembly and maintenance difficult. Resistance bands are consumable parts with a limited lifespan, requiring replacement after that period. The difficulty in separating the resistance band from the connector obviously causes maintenance inconvenience. Furthermore, the glue is corrosive to the resistance band, affecting its lifespan.

[0036] Furthermore, the stop portion 222 located at the bottom of the winding portion 221 is fan-shaped.

[0037] As can be seen from the above description, the fan-shaped stop 222 can withstand greater tensile force, thereby reducing the risk of damage to the stop 222, and at the same time, it can improve the structural strength of the bracket 2 to a greater extent.

[0038] Furthermore, the bottom of the bracket 2 has a wiring area 26 for wiring, the wiring area 26 is connected to the wire groove 24, and the base 1 has a contact surface 12 for contacting the pull rope area located in the wiring area 26.

[0039] As described above, the base 1 and the bracket 2 can clamp and fix the pull rope area located in the wiring area 26, which helps to improve the fixing effect of the pull rope and the pull rope connector.

[0040] Furthermore, the base 1 has a protruding ring 11, and the bottom of the bracket 2 is threadedly connected to the protruding ring 11.

[0041] As can be seen from the above description, the connection between the base 1 and the bracket 2 is simple and reliable.

[0043] As described above, the mounting cover 3 can protect the bracket 2 and the pull rope wrapped around the bracket 2.

[0044] Furthermore, the outer contour of the mounting cover 3 is frustoconical.

[0045] As can be seen from the above description, the frustum-shaped mounting cover 3 can be effectively adapted to the winding portion 221, which has a right-angled trapezoidal vertical cross-section.

[0046] Furthermore, the base 1 is provided with an installation cavity 13 and a slit 14. The installation cavity 13 is connected to the outer surface of the base 1 to form a pressing port. The slit 14 is connected to the outer surface of the base 1 and the installation cavity 13. The mounting mechanism includes an elastic element 41, a limiting guide post 42 and a mounting block 43. The mounting block 43 has a hook portion 431 corresponding to the slit 14. The mounting block 43 is slidably disposed in the installation cavity 13. The limiting guide post 42 is disposed on the base 1. The mounting block 43 is provided with a guide groove 432 that cooperates with the limiting guide post 42. The elastic element 41 is located in the installation cavity 13. The elastic element 41 contacts the mounting block 43 and the base 1.

The bracket 2 includes a fixed cylinder 21 and a plurality of winding blocks 22 arranged around the fixed cylinder 21. The fixed cylinder 21 has a through-hole 211. The winding block 22 includes a winding portion 221 connecting to the fixed cylinder 21. The winding portion 221 is provided with a plurality of stop portions 222, and at least one of them is provided with a stop portion 222. The two stop portions 222 are disposed far apart from each other, and at least one of the stop portions 222 forms a limiting gap 23 with the fixed cylinder 21. A wire groove 24 is formed between two adjacent winding portions 221, which communicates with the limiting gap 23. When the pull rope is wound on the bracket 2, the limiting gap 23 and the wire groove 24 are the path of the pull rope. The mounting cover 3 covers the bracket 2.
