Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of sports equipment technology, specifically to an agility ring component that can be assembled into an agility bar. Background Technology

[0002] The agility circle is a ring-shaped training device used to improve human coordination, agility, and reaction speed. It is widely used in youth fitness training, soccer training, sensory integration training, and school sports programs. Its core function is to serve as a versatile tool for jumping and movement exercises, enhancing the user's lower limb explosive power, balance, and neuromuscular coordination.

[0003] Agility barriers (also known as agility hurdles) are a type of equipment widely used in physical training, sports-specific improvement, and children's physical fitness education. They are mainly used as obstacle courses to assist users in jumping, moving, and other exercises, thereby improving users' agility, coordination, reaction speed, and lower limb explosive power.

[0004] Agility rings and agility bars are important equipment for training children's agility. During training, agility rings and agility bars are used independently and require separate purchase, storage, and retrieval. When using an agility ring or agility bar alone, the other equipment is idle, and the number of the required equipment may be insufficient. Therefore, it is necessary to design an agility ring structure that can be used independently as an agility ring or assembled into an agility bar, making it convenient to disassemble or assemble according to training needs, thereby improving equipment utilization and reducing purchase costs. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to develop an agility circle component that can be assembled into an agility bar, in order to solve the problem that agility circles and agility bars are not interchangeable in the prior art, and to improve the utilization and practicality of agility circles / agility bars.

[0006] This utility model is achieved through the following technical solution: An agility ring assembly that can be assembled into an agility bar includes an equilateral triangular agility ring, a connecting plate, and a base; the triangular agility ring includes three sides connected end to end, and the connection point of each pair of sides is a corner. The surface of each side of the triangular agility ring is provided with a first slot, the positioning surface of the connecting plate is provided with a protrusion that matches the first slot, and at least two protrusions are spaced apart on the positioning surface of the connecting plate. The base is hemispherical, and a second slot is provided on the spherical surface of the base. The width of the second slot is adapted to the thickness of the corner of the triangular agility ring, so that the corner can be engaged with the second slot. The second slot includes at least one strip groove, and one strip groove can accommodate the corners of at least two triangular agility rings at the same time.

[0007] The beneficial effects of the above technical solution are as follows: the agility ring body is an equilateral triangle structure, and each side of each agility ring is provided with a first slot. When the two sides of two agility rings are placed side by side, the two protrusions on the connecting plate are respectively inserted into the first slots on the sides of the two agility rings to connect the two agility rings to form a splicing structure. When using an equilateral triangle, there is no need to distinguish specific sides, which facilitates expansion and splicing, and can be combined into various shapes, including large triangles, trapezoids, rhombuses, and parallelograms. When used as a fence structure, multiple agility rings are combined to expand linearly or in a grid pattern. After splicing, bases are installed on both sides (and bottom) of the splicing structure (the corners of the triangular agility rings on both sides of the splicing structure are respectively inserted into a base), which allows the fence structure to stand up.

[0008] In one possible implementation, at least two first slots are provided at intervals along the length direction on each side of the triangular agility ring, and the at least two first slots are evenly distributed on the side, thereby ensuring the stability of the connection between the two triangular agility rings.

[0009] In one possible implementation, the two protrusions on the connecting plate are parallel to each other, and the positioning surface of the connecting plate has an axis of symmetry. The two protrusions are symmetrically distributed on both sides of the axis of symmetry. This symmetrical layout eliminates the need to distinguish the orientation of the connecting plate during use; any protrusion can engage with any first slot, improving assembly efficiency.

[0010] In one possible implementation, the first slot extends in a long strip along the side length of the triangular agility ring, and the protrusion is a strip-shaped protrusion adapted to the first slot; the long strip-shaped first slot and the strip-shaped protrusion cooperate to prevent the triangular agility ring from rotating relative to the connecting plate during training, maximize the length of the locking part, and ensure stable locking.

[0011] In one possible implementation, the base is a hollow structure with a water inlet. The water inlet is fitted with a removable cap. When the base is engaged with the triangular agility ring, water is first injected into the base through the water inlet to counterweight it. After water is injected, the cap is sealed. In actual production, to make the product more aesthetically pleasing, the water inlet can be located on the bottom plane of the hemispherical base. After the base is filled with water, the center of gravity of the assembled agility ring is lowered, preventing it from tipping over.

[0012] In one possible implementation, the second slot is a cross-shaped slot formed by two intersecting strip slots, allowing the corner of the triangular agility ring to be inserted from either opening direction of the cross-shaped slot, thus improving the convenience of base assembly.

[0013] When assembling the aforementioned agility ring components, the first slot on the side of the triangular agility ring engages with one of the positioning protrusions on the connecting plate. Simultaneously, another positioning protrusion on the connecting plate connects with the first slot on the side of another triangular agility ring. By assembling the three triangular agility rings in this way, an isosceles trapezoidal structure can be formed. The assembly process is simple and fun, allowing children to perform longer and more extensive training sessions based on their existing training. Water-filled bases are placed at the two base corners of the assembled trapezoidal structure, embedding the two corners of the trapezoid into the water-filled bases. All sides of the triangular agility rings are of the same length, and the height and size of the two water-filled bases are also uniform. The height of both ends of the frame remains consistent.

[0014] The aforementioned agility circle components are primarily used by athletes and are commonly found in children's fitness programs. The use of this two-in-one equipment increases the variety of training courses and enhances children's enthusiasm for participation. The two-in-one function of this agility circle component effectively saves space, making it suitable for homes and small training spaces. Furthermore, children can independently adjust the training difficulty, which, to a certain extent, can also cultivate their interest in sports and their hands-on skills. Attached Figure Description

[0019] In the embodiments of this application, unless otherwise expressly specified and limited, "above" or "below" the second feature can mean that the first feature is in direct contact with the second feature, or that the first feature is in indirect contact with the second feature through an intermediate medium. Furthermore, "above," "on top of," and "over" the second feature can mean that the first feature is directly above or diagonally above the second feature, or simply that the first feature is at a higher horizontal level than the second feature. "Below," "below," and "under" the second feature can mean that the first feature is directly below or diagonally below the second feature, or simply that the first feature is at a lower horizontal level than the second feature.

[0020] To make the objectives, features and advantages of this utility model more apparent and understandable, the specific embodiments are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Example

[0021] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, this embodiment provides an agility ring assembly that can be assembled into an agility bar, including an equilateral triangular agility ring 1, a connecting plate 2, and a base 3; the triangular agility ring 1 includes three sides connected end to end, with the connection point of each pair of sides being a corner; each side of the triangular agility ring 1 has a first slot 11 on its surface, and the positioning surface of the connecting plate 2 has a protrusion 21 adapted to the first slot 11, and at least two protrusions 21 are spaced apart on the positioning surface of the connecting plate 2; the base 3 is hemispherical, and the spherical surface of the base 3 has a second slot 31, the width of the second slot 31 being adapted to the thickness of the corner of the triangular agility ring 1, so that the corner can be engaged with the second slot 31, the second slot 31 including at least one strip groove, and one strip groove can allow at least two corners of the triangular agility ring 1 to be engaged simultaneously.

[0022] Furthermore, at least two first slots 11 are provided at intervals along the length direction on each side of the triangular agility ring 1, and the at least two first slots 11 are evenly distributed along the length direction of the side. By providing at least two first slots 11, the stability of the connection between the two triangular agility rings 1 is ensured.

[0023] Furthermore, the two latching protrusions 21 on the connecting plate 2 are parallel to each other, and the positioning surface of the connecting plate 2 has an axis of symmetry. The two latching protrusions 21 are symmetrically distributed on both sides of the axis of symmetry. The symmetrical layout eliminates the need to distinguish the direction of the connecting plate during use, and any latching protrusion can cooperate with any first slot 11, improving assembly efficiency. Furthermore, the first slot 11 extends in a long strip along the side length direction of the triangular agility ring 1, and the protrusion 21 is a strip-shaped protrusion adapted to the first slot 11. The long slot 11 and the strip-shaped protrusion cooperate to increase the length of the snap-fit ​​and ensure the snap-fit ​​is stable.

[0024] Furthermore, the base 3 is a hollow structure, and a water inlet 32 ​​is provided on the base 3. The water inlet 32 ​​is fitted with a removable plug. For clear identification, in this embodiment, the water inlet 32 ​​is drawn on the spherical surface of the base 3. In actual production, in order to make the product more aesthetically pleasing, the water inlet can be opened on the bottom plane of the hemispherical base 3. After the base 3 is filled with water, it can lower the center of gravity of the assembled agility rail and prevent it from tipping over.

[0025] Furthermore, the second slot 31 is a cross-shaped slot formed by two intersecting strip slots, allowing the corner to be inserted from either direction of the cross-shaped slot, thus improving the convenience of base assembly.

[0026] The aforementioned snap-fit ​​can be a tight fit formed by insertion, or a snap-fit ​​consisting of a snap protrusion and a snap block.

[0027] like Figure 4 As shown, in this embodiment, three triangular agility rings, two connecting plates, and two bases are spliced ​​together to form an agility railing. The three triangular agility rings are spliced ​​together to form an isosceles trapezoidal structure. The two corners of the base of the isosceles trapezoidal structure are embedded in the water-filled base 3 for positioning. The middle part of the base of the isosceles trapezoidal structure, that is, the splicing point of the three agility rings, can also be embedded in the water-filled base 3 to maintain the stability of the middle part. It can maintain the triangular structure of the agility rings and can be quickly transformed into the form of a trapezoidal railing, and the two ends of the trapezoidal railing are at the same height.

[0028] In addition, multiple triangular agility rings can be combined into hexagonal, rhomboid, parallelogram and other shapes to support a variety of training movements such as jumping jacks. The agility ring components can support two training modes: circular jumping paths and hurdle obstacles, effectively reducing equipment purchase costs and storage space.

[0029] In this product, any side of one triangular agility ring can be connected to any side of another triangular agility ring via connecting plate 2, allowing for quick assembly and disassembly of multiple triangular agility rings. By assembling three triangular agility rings into a trapezoid and placing water-filled bases at the bottom of both ends, the agility rings can be converted into stable hurdles, enabling diverse training movements. The water-filled bases ensure the stable upright position of the assembled structure, enhancing the structural stability of the equipment. Furthermore, compared to purchasing two separate pieces of equipment, the agility ring assembly effectively reduces storage volume, further optimizing storage space. By achieving two functions (agility ring / agility hurdle) through the agility ring assembly, purchase costs are reduced, material utilization is significantly improved, and resource waste during the production process is minimized. Example

[0030] like Figures 5 to 6 As shown, Embodiment 2 adds structural details based on Embodiment 1. The inner wall of the second slot 31 is provided with a positioning groove 311. The outer surface of the corner of the triangular agile ring 1 has a positioning protrusion 12 that matches the shape of the positioning groove 311. The inner wall of the positioning groove 311 has a first guide arc surface, and the outer surface of the positioning protrusion 12 has a second guide arc surface that guides and cooperates with the first guide arc surface. When the corner of the triangular agile ring 1 is inserted into the second slot 31, the positioning protrusion 12 is inserted into the positioning groove 311 under the guidance of the two guide arc surfaces, so that the corner of the triangular agile ring 1 is stably engaged with the second slot 31 when inserted into the second slot 31.

[0031] Furthermore, the outer periphery of the three corners of the triangular agility ring 1 is rounded, which enhances safety.
