Detailed Implementation

[0033] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments:

[0034] See Figures 1 to 9As shown, a bouncy ball includes a foot pedal 1 and an elastic ball 2. The foot pedal 1 has a pressing surface 115 at its lower end, and the elastic ball 2 has a supporting surface 25 at its upper end that matches the pressing surface 115. The lower end of the elastic ball 2 has an arc-shaped bottom surface 21, and the upper part of the elastic ball 2 extends outward to form a mounting flange 22. A pressure plate 3 is detachably mounted on the foot pedal 1. The pressure plate 3 presses the mounting flange 22 against the foot pedal 1, thus fixing the foot pedal 1 and the elastic ball 2 relatively. In this structure, the upper end of the elastic ball 2 has a supporting surface 25 for supporting the foot pedal 1, which facilitates the increase in size. The contact area between the elastic ball 2 and the foot pedal 1 is conducive to the stable support of the elastic ball 2 for the foot pedal 1, making it convenient for the user to use and preventing the user from falling due to the relative tilt of the foot pedal 1 and the elastic ball 2 during use. This helps to improve the safety of the bouncy ball. In addition, the mounting protrusion 22 is pressed against the foot pedal 1 by the pressure plate 3, which helps to stabilize the installation of the foot pedal 1 and the elastic ball 2. This structure also helps to increase the force-bearing area of ​​the mounting protrusion 22, preventing the mounting protrusion 22 from being damaged due to stress concentration during use, and helping to extend the service life of the bouncy ball.

[0035] In this invention, the abutting surface 115 can be the entire surface below the foot pedal 1, or it can be the surface of a protruding end such as an annular surface. In this embodiment, a reinforcing rib extends below the foot pedal 1, and the abutting surface 115 is the bottom surface of the reinforcing rib. This reinforcing rib can not only improve the structural strength of the foot pedal 1, but also reduce the contact area between the abutting surface 115 and the supporting surface 25, thus avoiding the poor flatness of the abutting surface 115 during the production process, which would affect the tight fit between the foot pedal 1 and the elastic ball 2.

[0036] In this invention, the foot pedal 1 extends downward to form a protective protrusion 114, which surrounds and forms a mounting cavity 113. A mating surface 115 is disposed in the mounting cavity 113, and the mounting protrusion 22 passes through the mounting cavity 113. The bottom surface 21 protrudes from the mounting cavity 113 and is exposed to the outside. A light strip is disposed in the mounting cavity 113. The protective protrusion 114 helps to prevent the mounting protrusion 22 and the pressure plate 3 from being bumped during use, and also prevents contaminants from contacting the mounting protrusion 22 and the pressure plate 3, which helps to extend the service life of the bouncy ball. The light strip disposed in the mounting cavity 113 helps to increase the fun of the bouncy ball, and the protective protrusion 114 can protect the light strip and prevent it from being damaged.

[0037] In the accompanying drawings of this utility model, a mounting groove 32 is provided on the upper side of the pressure plate 3. The light strip is installed in the mounting groove 32. When the pressure plate 3 is connected to the foot pedal 1, the light strip can be stably installed in the mounting groove 32. Preferably, the pressure plate 3 is made of transparent material, so that the light emitted by the light strip can pass through the pressure plate 3 and be emitted. The light strip is not specifically shown in the accompanying drawings of this utility model, but installing a light strip on fitness equipment is a common technical solution in the field. Those skilled in the art can implement this technical solution with the existing technology and the description in the specification.

[0038] In this invention, an air hole 24 for inflation can be provided on the support surface or on the bottom surface 21. When the air hole is provided on the bottom surface 21, it is convenient for the user to inflate or deflate the elastic ball 2. In this embodiment, it is preferable that the air hole 24 for inflation is provided on the support surface 25. The air hole 24 provided on the support surface 25 can prevent the air hole 24 from being blocked or damaged during use.

[0039] Preferably, the foot pedal 1 is provided with an air inlet 112 corresponding to the air hole 24. The air inlet 112 on the foot pedal 1 makes it convenient for the user to inflate the elastic ball 2. When inflating, the foot pedal 1 and the elastic ball 2 do not need to be disassembled relative to each other, which is convenient for the user.

[0040] The pressure plate 3 of this utility model is provided with a first mounting hole 31, and the mounting flange 22 is provided with a plurality of second mounting holes 23. Fasteners pass through the first mounting holes 31 and the second mounting holes 23 and are connected to the foot pedal 1, thereby fixing the pressure plate 3 and the elastic ball 2 relative to the foot pedal 1. The setting of the first mounting holes 31 and the second mounting holes 23 facilitates the positioning and installation of the foot pedal 1, the elastic ball 2 and the pressure plate 3, and avoids the relative movement of the mounting flange 22 during use, which affects the stable installation of the elastic ball 2, making it convenient for users to use the bouncy ball.

[0041] The pressure plate 3 is annular and surrounds the outer circumference of the elastic ball 2. The inner ring of the pressure plate 3 abuts against the outer circumference of the elastic ball 2, thereby preventing the elastic ball 2 from shaking in the pressure plate 3. The annular pressure plate 3 facilitates the uniform force on the circumference of the elastic ball 2, which is conducive to the stable installation of the elastic ball 2 and prevents the elastic ball 2 from moving relative to or separating from the foot pedal 1 during use, making it convenient for the user.

[0042] The foot pedal 1 includes two mounting bases 11, each with a detachable elastic ball 2 at its lower end. The upper end of the mounting base 11 is provided with a footrest 111 for the user to step on. The elastic ball 2 located below the two mounting bases 11 provides stable support for the foot pedal 1 during use, which helps reduce the difficulty of using the bouncy ball and makes it easier for beginners or people with poor balance to use, facilitating user learning and training.

[0043] In this embodiment, a connecting part 12 is provided between the two mounting bases 11. A connecting seat 4 is detachably provided on the connecting part 12.

The connection part 12 is designed to facilitate the fixed installation of the mounting bases 11.

[0044] The connecting seat 4 includes a detachably connected front cover 41 and a rear cover 42. The front cover 41 and the rear cover 42 are respectively provided with a first connecting groove 43 and a second connecting groove 46. The connecting part 12 passes through the first connecting groove 43 and the second connecting groove 46 on the front and rear sides respectively. The front cover 41 and the rear cover 42 facilitate the production and processing of the connecting seat 4, while the first connecting groove 43 and the second connecting groove 46 facilitate the stable installation of the connecting seat 4 and the foot pedal 1, and prevent the connecting seat 4 from accidentally separating from the foot pedal 1 during use.

[0045] Preferably, a third mounting hole 45 is provided on the side wall of both the first connecting groove 43 and the second connecting groove 46. The fastener passes through the third mounting hole 45 and detachably connects the front cover 41 or the rear cover 42 to the connecting part 12.

[0046] In this embodiment, the connecting rope 5 is provided with two limiting protrusions 51, a connecting hole is formed between the front cover 41 and the rear cover 42, and the handle 6 is also provided with a connecting hole. The connecting rope 5 is passed through the connecting hole, and the limiting protrusions 51 can prevent the connecting rope 5 from detaching from the connecting hole.

[0047] The connecting part 12 of this utility model is provided with a positioning groove 121. The first connecting groove 43 and the second connecting groove 46 are both provided with positioning protrusions 44 that are adapted to the positioning groove 121. The positioning groove 121 and the positioning protrusions 44 facilitate the positioning and installation of the connecting seat 4 and the foot pedal 1, and prevent the connecting seat 4 and the foot pedal 1 from shaking relative to each other during use, making it convenient for users to use.

[0048] In this embodiment, the positioning groove 121 is provided on the front and rear sides of the connecting part 12. The first connecting groove 43 and the second connecting groove 46 are both provided with positioning protrusions 44 that are adapted to the positioning groove 121. In this utility model, the front cover 41 and the rear cover 42 have similar structures. Therefore, although only the structure of the front cover 41 is shown in the accompanying drawings, those skilled in the art can implement this technical solution based on the specification and the accompanying drawings.

[0049] The above embodiments are merely preferred embodiments of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present utility model. Therefore, all equivalent changes made to the structure, shape, and principle of the present utility model should be covered within the scope of protection of the present utility model.
