[0056] The technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of this utility model.

[0057] Please see Figures 1-6 This application provides the following technical solutions:

[0058] The composite handle includes a central structure 25 located in the middle region of the handle. The central structure 25 can be a bracket, sufficient to provide horizontal support; in this design, the central structure 25 is a rod. A connecting structure 24 is provided in the middle of the central structure 25. The connecting structure is a connecting plate with connecting holes at its ends, or a connector for easy connection to a cable. The connecting structure 24 extends towards one side of the central structure 25 for fixed connection to the cable in the fitness equipment. A first grip portion 21 is symmetrically arranged on each side of the central structure 25. Two second grip portions 22 are fixedly arranged on the central structure 25, one symmetrically arranged on each side of the connecting structure 24, and the second grip portions 22 are located between the first grip portions 21 and the connecting structure 24. Furthermore, a third grip portion 23 is provided on each side of the two first grip portions 21 away from the central structure 25. The first grip portions 21 and second grip portions 22 are rod-shaped; the third grip portion 23 is a plate.

[0059] Taking the usage of this composite handle as a reference, the middle structure 25 is positioned horizontally in front of the human body, extending in the direction of the shoulders, that is, horizontally positioned to the left and right of the user. One end of the first gripping part 21 is fixedly connected to the middle structure 25, and the other end is horizontally inclined towards the human body. Figure 6 As shown. When the user holds the first grip 21, the posture is similar to that of holding a bicycle or motorcycle. The second grip 22 is tilted in a different direction from the first grip 21, as shown. Figure 5 As shown, the second grip 22 provides a different grip structure from the first grip 21, with the hand gripping in an approximately vertical direction, similar to the gripping posture of an aircraft control stick. The third grip 23 adopts a plate structure different from the first and second grips, focusing more on the grip strength of the fingers.

[0060] The composite handle structure offers different grip styles, giving athletes more options, and the effects on hand and arm training vary depending on the grip style.

[0061] This composite handle can be installed on different fitness equipment according to actual needs, mainly for "pulling" related fitness movements, but can also be adapted to "pushing" related movements.

[0062] Based on the above implementation plan, see Figure 6 In this design, the central structure 25 and the first gripping portions 21 on both sides are generally "arch-shaped." Both the central structure 25 and the first gripping portions 21 are rods. The first gripping portions 21 are inclined relative to the central structure 25, and the angle between the axes of the first gripping portions 21 and the central structure 25 is an obtuse angle. The central structure 25 and the first gripping portions 21 are integrally formed. See also... Figure 5 and Figure 6 The second grip portion 22 includes a second grip rod, which is a rod body. One end of the rod body is fixedly connected to the intermediate structure 25, and the other end extends obliquely in the opposite direction to the first grip portion 21. The second grip rods of the two second grip portions 22 are arranged in a figure-eight shape; the ends of the two second grip rods away from the intermediate structure 25 are close together. A second limiting plate is fixedly provided at the end of the second grip rod away from the intermediate structure 25.

[0063] With this structure, the first grip 21 is limited by the third grip 23, preventing it from slipping out of the hand. The second grip 22 also prevents slipping out of the hand with the help of the second limiting plate.

[0064] Based on the above implementation scheme, the third grip portion 23 includes a third grip plate and a third grip rod. The third grip plate is approximately trapezoidal in shape, with its short edge facing the user and its long edge fixedly connected to the third grip rod. One side of the third grip plate is fixedly connected to the end of the first grip portion 21; the outer side of the third grip rod is fixedly connected to the edge of the third grip plate. The diameter of the third grip rod is larger than the thickness of the third grip plate. This structure, utilizing the third grip rod, makes it easier for the user to grip the third grip portion 23 using their finger joints.

[0065] This plan also includes rowing equipment, such as... Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, this rowing exercise machine uses the aforementioned composite handle 2. In addition, this rowing exercise machine also includes a support component 1, a weight component 3, and an adjustment component 4. The support component 1 is the main support structure of the exercise machine, used to support the user's body. The adjustment component 4 is located between the composite handle 2 and the support component 1, and can adjust the orientation of the composite handle 2 during use. The weight component 3 serves as a counterweight for exercise, and is linked to the composite handle 2.

[0066] The support assembly 1 includes a main support 11 that can be placed on the ground. A seat cushion 12 and a footrest 13 are respectively mounted on the main support 11. Both the seat cushion 12 and the footrest 13 are fixedly connected to the main support 11. The seat cushion 12 can be a long strip of cushion, or a seat structure with a backrest can be used. The footrest 13 is inclined on the side of the seat cushion 12 facing the adjustment assembly 4. The counterweight assembly 3 includes a counterweight block assembly and a cable pulley assembly. The connection structure 24 of the composite handle 2 is linked to the counterweight block assembly via a cable. The counterweight block assembly and cable pulley assembly of the counterweight assembly 3 can adopt existing technology, and its specific structure will not be described in detail here.

[0067] With this rowing exercise machine, users can choose different grip methods to hold the compound handle 2 and change the orientation of the compound handle 2 with the help of the adjustment component 4, thereby achieving rowing movements with different angles and grip gestures.

[0068] Based on the above implementation scheme, the adjustment assembly 4 includes an adjustment frame 41, a swing frame 42, a connecting frame 43, and an adjustment component 44. See also... Figures 9 to 12 The adjustment frame 41 is fixedly mounted on the main support 11. The adjustment frame 41 includes two parallel fan-shaped plates, with several positioning grooves distributed on the side of the two fan-shaped plates away from the seat cushion 12. The swing frame 42 is rotatably connected to the main support 11. The swing frame 42 is fixedly connected to the connecting frame 43, or the two are integrally formed. A guide wheel is rotatably mounted inside the connecting frame 43; the cable of the counterweight assembly 3 passes around the guide wheel and connects to the composite handle 2. The adjustment component 44 is rotatably connected to the swing frame 42 or the connecting frame 43, and a positioning rod is provided at the end of the adjustment component 44. The positioning rod corresponds to the positioning groove of the adjustment frame 41, and the positioning rod can be engaged in the positioning groove.

[0069] With this structure, the user pulls the adjusting component 44, causing the positioning rod of the adjusting component 44 to disengage from the positioning groove. Then, the swing frame 42 can rotate. Once it has rotated to the appropriate angle, the user can then guide the positioning rod back into the positioning groove to complete the adjustment. At this time, the composite handle 2 follows the position of the connecting frame 43, and its orientation changes. Figure 10 This shows the lowest position of the swing frame 42. Figure 11 This is a view of the highest position of the swing frame 42. Figure 10 The direction indicated by the middle arrow is the direction of movement of the adjusting component 44.

[0070] Based on the above implementation scheme, the swing frame 42 is rotatably connected to the main support 11 via a swing shaft 421. The swing shaft 421 is located at the end of the swing frame 42. The adjusting component 44 includes an adjusting shaft 441, which passes through the swing frame 42. An adjusting rod is rotatably connected to each end of the adjusting shaft 441, and the adjusting rod is approximately "7"-shaped. A positioning rod is connected to the lower part of the adjusting rod, and a limiting rod is connected to the upper part. The limiting rod is located above the adjusting shaft 441. A limiting groove 442 is formed on the swing frame 42 corresponding to the limiting rod.

[0071] When the adjusting rod is pulled, the limiting rod can move slightly within the limiting groove 442. This movement distance is sufficient to ensure that the positioning rod can disengage from the positioning groove.

[0072] See Figure 11A reset element 45, which is a tension spring, is provided between the limiting rod and the connecting frame 43. Under normal conditions, the tension spring pulls the limiting rod, causing the adjusting rod to engage the positioning rod within the positioning groove. When adjusting, the user pulls the adjusting rod, stretching the tension spring and causing the adjusting rod to rotate. After adjustment, the reset element 45 resets the adjusting rod, and the positioning rod is engaged within the corresponding positioning groove.
