Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to an ab wheel, and more particularly to a flip-type three-in-one ab wheel, belonging to the field of fitness equipment technology. Background Technology

[0002] An ab wheel is a simple, convenient, and effective fitness device. It allows users to easily perform abdominal exercises at home and is far more effective than traditional sit-ups. Currently, there are two main types of ab wheels on the market, described below: (1) Handle-type single-wheel structure: such as Figure 1 As shown, utility model patent CN201320180665.6 discloses an ab wheel, including a wheel body located in the middle and left and right grips extending from the wheel axis on both sides of the wheel body. However, beginners or people with weak abdominal core strength find it difficult to control their balance when using this type of ab wheel, and they are also prone to using other parts of their body for force, which limits the training effect of core muscles and can easily cause sports injuries.

[0003] (2) Forearm support double wheel structure: such as Figure 2 As shown, the utility model with patent number CN202322964372.3 discloses a modularly assembled ab wheel, including an elbow support, a wheel assembly, and a mounting base. However, this type of ab wheel is relatively large, resulting in a large storage space requirement, insufficient ease of use, and poor functional expandability, making it difficult to meet diverse training needs.

[0004] Therefore, in order to reduce the difficulty of operation for users, reduce storage space, and expand fitness functions, there is an urgent need to develop a new type of ab wheel. Summary of the Invention

[0005] To address the aforementioned technical problems, this utility model provides a flip-type three-in-one ab wheel, which combines an ab wheel, a plank support device, and a foam roller into one unit, thereby reducing the difficulty of operation, minimizing storage space, and expanding fitness functions.

[0006] To achieve the above technical objectives, this utility model provides a flip-type three-in-one abdominal wheel, including two support side plates, a pad-type handle assembly and two roller massage assemblies installed between the two support side plates; Both supporting side plates are symmetrical in front and back, and are placed opposite each other symmetrically in the left and right. The padded grip assembly includes a flip-up grip base, two base pivots, two U-shaped pins, two grips, and two elbow support pads. The two grips are mounted on the top surface of the grip base; the two elbow support pads are mounted on the bottom surface of the grip base. The two base pivots are inserted from the top center of the two support side plates into the center of the left and right sides of the grip base, respectively. The two U-shaped pins are movably inserted from the top of the two support side plates into the left and right sides of the grip base, respectively. The grip base can be flipped around the two base pivots and can be fixed in position by the two U-shaped pins. Furthermore, the central axes of the two base pivots, the two U-shaped pins, the two grips, and the two elbow support pads are all located on the left-right central axis of the grip base and are distributed in a mirror-symmetrical manner about the front-back central axis of the grip base. The two roller massage assemblies are distributed in a mirror-symmetrical manner about the left and right sides of the grip base along the central axis; each roller massage assembly includes a roller shaft, two rollers and a foam roller; the two ends of the roller shaft are symmetrically inserted into the bottom of two support side plates; the two rollers are symmetrically mounted on the roller shaft; the foam roller is mounted on the roller shaft and located between the two rollers.

[0007] Furthermore, when the grip base is rotated 180 degrees along the two base pivots, the top surface of the elbow support pad is flush with the top edge of the support side plate. Furthermore, the bottom edges of the roller and the foam roller protrude beyond the bottom edge of the supporting side plate; the bottom edge of the roller protrudes beyond the bottom edge of the foam roller.

[0008] Specifically, in this invention, the surface of the elbow support pad is made of soft rubber material.

[0009] Specifically, the surface of the foam roller is provided with a textured surface.

[0010] In summary, the working principle of this utility model is as follows: when the grip base is kept with the grip facing upwards, the roller contacts the ground, and this utility model switches to the ab wheel mode. The user can hold both grips with both hands and perform push-pull training by having the roller contact the ground.

[0011] When the grip base is flipped so that the elbow support pad is facing upwards, the rollers are still in contact with the ground. This invention switches to plank support mode, allowing users to support their forearms on the elbow support pad for plank training.

[0012] When the grip base is flipped so that the elbow pad is facing upwards, the entire invention is flipped so that the rollers and foam roller are facing upwards, and the two support side plates and elbow pads are in contact with the ground. The invention then switches to foam roller mode, allowing users to use the textured surface of the foam roller to massage the leg or back muscles and achieve muscle relaxation.

[0013] In this way, the entire pad-type grip assembly achieves smooth rotation of the grip base through the base pivot, and the U-shaped pin ensures the positioning accuracy of the grip base after mode switching, making the switching between different training modes both convenient and reliable.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, this utility model has the following technical advantages: (1) Three-in-one functional integration: For the first time, the grip-type ab wheel, forearm support double wheel machine and foam roller are integrated into a single device, realizing the miniaturization of professional-grade functions, greatly reducing the size of fitness equipment, reducing the space occupied for storage, and improving the convenience of use. In addition, the flipping and pin locking mechanism enables quick mode switching, which not only reduces the difficulty of operation and expands the fitness functions to meet the needs of different training stages, but also ensures the structural stability during mode switching.

[0015] (2) Enhanced safety: The design of the two roller massage components reduces the risk of tipping over; the U-shaped locking mechanism prevents sports injuries caused by accidental tipping over; the soft rubber texture of the elbow support pad reduces forearm pressure damage, and the elbow support pad provides anti-slip protection by grounding after tipping over. The above designs effectively prevent the risk of imbalance during training for beginners and reduce the probability of lower back sports injuries.

[0016] (3) Multifunctional Expansion: The double-sided design of the grip base allows for derivative training movements (such as inverted support or seated balance training); the two elbow pads are placed side by side, also serving as a seat cushion; the foam roller supports active / passive massage, allowing for self-relaxation of leg and back muscles, as well as use for others' physical therapy; the texture of the foam roller can be customized to suit the massage needs of different muscle groups. The above designs break through the limitations of traditional equipment's single purpose and expand the usage scenarios. Attached Figure Description

[0018] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the embodiments of this utility model.

[0019] In the description of this application, terms such as "connection" or "linked" are not limited to physical or mechanical connections, but can include electrical connections, whether direct or indirect. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of these terms in this application according to the specific circumstances. Furthermore, terms such as "upper," "lower," "left," "right," "front," "back," "top," "bottom," and "middle" are only used to indicate relative positional relationships; when the absolute position of the described object changes, the relative positional relationship may also change accordingly.

[0020] like Figures 3-6 As shown, this embodiment provides a flip-type three-in-one ab wheel, including two support side plates 4, a pad-type grip assembly and two roller massage assemblies installed between the two support side plates 4, which are described in detail below.

[0021] like Figures 3-6 As shown, the two supporting side plates 4 are designed with a front-to-back symmetrical structure and stand opposite each other symmetrically on the left and right sides, serving as a stable supporting frame.

[0022] In practical implementation, the two supporting side plates 4 serve as connecting hubs to fix the pad-type grip assembly and the two roller massage assemblies, ensuring the stability of the overall structure of this utility model and adapting to high-intensity pushing, pulling and supporting actions.

[0023] like Figures 3-6 As shown, the padded grip assembly adopts a dual-axis symmetrical structure design, including a flip-up grip base 2, and two base pivots 3, two U-shaped pins 5, two grips 1, and two elbow support pads 9 symmetrically mounted on the grip base 2. Furthermore, the central axes of the two base pivots 3, the two U-shaped pins 5, the two grips 1, and the two elbow support pads 9 are all strictly aligned with the left-right central axis of the grip base 2, and are distributed in a mirror-symmetrical manner about the front-back central axis of the grip base 2. This symmetrical layout not only ensures structural stability but also enables seamless switching between three training modes: ab wheel, plank, and foam roller, as detailed below.

[0024] like Figures 3-6As shown, the two base pivots 3 are symmetrically inserted into the center holes on the left and right sides of the grip base 2, respectively, from the center position of the top of the outer side of the two support side plates 4. Furthermore, the central axes of the two base pivots 3 are located on the left-right central axis of the grip base 2.

[0025] In practice, the two base pivots 3 are symmetrically installed on both sides of the grip base 2 as rotation fulcrums. They not only support the flipping movement of the entire grip base 2, but also drive the grip 1 and elbow support pad 9 installed on it to achieve 180-degree mode switching. They also work with the movable U-shaped pin 5 to achieve precise positioning of the grip base 2 after mode switching.

[0026] like Figures 3-6 As shown, the two U-shaped pins 5 are inserted symmetrically into the left and right sides of the grip base 2 from the top of the outer sides of the two supporting side plates 4. Furthermore, the central axis of the two U-shaped pins 5 is located on the left-right central axis of the grip base 2.

[0027] In practice, the two U-shaped pins 5 are designed to be movable. After the grip base 2 has rotated 180 degrees, the locking function of the U-shaped pins 5 can achieve precise positioning of the grip base 2, especially ensuring absolute stability of the structure in ab wheel mode. This collaborative design of the base pivot 3 and the U-shaped pins 5 not only ensures smooth mode switching but also provides reliable positioning, allowing users to obtain a stable and consistent operating experience when switching between different training modes.

[0028] like Figure 3 As shown, the two grips 1 are symmetrically mounted on the top surface of the grip base 2. Furthermore, the central axis of the two grips 1 is located on the left-right central axis of the grip base 2.

[0029] In practice, the two grips 1 adopt an ergonomic curved surface design to fit the curvature of the palm, making it easy for users to grip with both hands for ab wheel training, and ensuring grip comfort and force application stability.

[0030] like Figure 4 , Figure 5 As shown, the two elbow support pads 9 are symmetrically mounted on the bottom surface of the grip base 2. Furthermore, the central axis of the two elbow support pads 9 is located on the left-right central axis of the grip base 2. In other embodiments, the surface of the elbow support pads 9 is made of a highly elastic soft rubber material.

[0031] In specific implementation, such as Figure 5As shown, when the grip base 2 is rotated 180 degrees, the top surfaces of the two elbow support pads 9 are flush with the top edges of the two support side plates 4. This design ensures that when the device is in plank mode, the top edges of the support side plates 4 and the surfaces of the elbow support pads 9 together form a stable support plane. The soft rubber material not only provides excellent anti-slip properties but also effectively distributes pressure on the user's forearms, significantly improving training comfort. Figure 6 As shown, when this invention is rotated 180 degrees, the top surfaces of the two elbow support pads 9 remain flush with the top edge of the supporting side plate 4, and both are in contact with the ground. In particular, the surface of the elbow support pads 9 can serve as a non-slip contact surface, providing both stable support and ensuring comfort. Furthermore, the two elbow support pads 9 placed side by side also function as seat cushions, allowing users to rest and expanding their range of uses.

[0032] like Figures 3-6 As shown, the grip base 2 adopts a double-sided design. Two ergonomic grips 1 are symmetrically mounted on its top surface, while two high-elasticity soft rubber elbow pads 9 are configured on the bottom surface. A 180-degree smooth rotation is achieved through two precisely designed base pivots 3. This structure strictly adheres to the principle of orthogonal symmetry; the left-right central axis of the grip base 2 completely coincides with the left-right central axis of the two supporting side plates 4. All functional components, including the grips 1, elbow pads 9, base pivots 3, and U-shaped pins 5, are precisely mirror-symmetrically distributed. This symmetrical layout is particularly useful in ab wheel mode (…). Figure 3 This effectively eliminates lateral torque, ensuring absolute balance of the device when both hands grip the handles; in plank mode ( Figure 4 , Figure 5 This ensures that the pressure on the forearm is evenly distributed on the symmetrical elbow support pad 9, preventing the support surface from deflecting.

[0033] In practical implementation, the grip base 2 is connected to two support side plates 4 via two base pivots 3, and reliably locked with two movable U-shaped pins 5. This prevents accidental flipping and ensures precise positioning during mode switching. When the grip 1 on the top surface of the grip base 2 faces upwards, the roller 7 is in contact with the ground, and the device is used as an ab wheel. When the grip base 2 is rotated 180 degrees so that the elbow support pad 9 faces upwards, the device transforms into a plank support device. At this time, the roller 7 is in contact with the ground, and the top edge of the support side plate 4 and the top surface of the elbow support pad 9 together form a stable support surface. This dual-mode design not only expands the functionality of the equipment, but its precise symmetrical structure and reliable locking mechanism also ensure the safety and comfort of the training process, providing users with a professional-grade fitness experience.

[0034] like Figures 3-6As shown, the two roller massage assemblies are symmetrically distributed on the front and rear sides with the left-right central axis of the grip base 2 as the reference. Each roller massage assembly includes a roller shaft 6, two rollers 7, and a foam roller 8, which are described in detail below.

[0035] like Figures 3-6 As shown, in each roller massage assembly, the two ends of the roller shaft 6 are symmetrically mounted on the bottom of the two supporting side plates 4. Furthermore, in the two roller massage assemblies, the two roller shafts 6 are located on the front and rear sides of the handle base 2 along the central axis, respectively.

[0036] In practice, the two roller shafts 6 pass through the bottom of the two support side plates 4, providing support for the rotation of the four rollers 7 and the two foam rollers 8.

[0037] like Figures 3-6 As shown, in each roller massage group, the two rollers 7 are symmetrically mounted on the roller shaft 6. Furthermore, the two roller massage groups have a total of four rollers 7 (two groups in the front and two in the back).

[0038] In practice, the four symmetrically distributed rollers 7 achieve the rolling function of this utility model through ground contact.

[0039] like Figures 3-6 As shown, in each roller massage assembly, the foam roller 8 is mounted on the roller shaft 6 and located between the two rollers 7. It is worth noting that the bottom edges of both the foam roller 8 and the rollers 7 protrude beyond the bottom edge of the support side plate 4, and the bottom edge of the rollers 7 protrudes more than the bottom edge of the foam roller 8, that is, the protrusion of the rollers 7 is greater than that of the foam roller 8.

[0040] In practice, when roller 7 contacts the ground, foam roller 8 remains suspended, effectively preventing wear on its surface. Furthermore, foam roller 8 can be picked up to massage others, expanding its application range.

[0041] In other embodiments, the surface of the foam roller 8 is provided with an uneven texture. In specific implementations, the texture of the foam roller 8 can be customized (e.g., wavy, granular) to suit the massage needs of different muscle groups.

[0042] In the above technical solution, two roller massage components are symmetrically distributed on the front and rear sides of the two supporting side plates 4, integrating the rollers 7 and the foam roller 8 into one unit, enabling free switching between flat support mode and foam roller mode. Figure 6As shown, when this invention is flipped so that the elbow support pad 9 faces down and the roller 7 and foam roller 8 face up, it can be converted into a foam roller mode through the ground support of the supporting side plate 4 and the elbow support pad 9. This structural design retains the traditional motion function of the roller 7 and achieves a muscle relaxation massage effect through the addition of the foam roller 8, enabling a single device to have the dual functions of exercise training and rehabilitation therapy.

[0043] In summary, such as Figure 7 As shown, this utility model, through innovative mechanical structure design, enables free switching between three training modes: ab wheel, plank, and foam roller. The specific switching mechanisms for each mode are as follows: (1) Ab wheel mode: such as Figure 3 As shown, a dual-roller stable structure is adopted. When the two grips 1 are facing upwards and the elbow support pad 9 is facing downwards, the foam roller 8 is suspended in the air, with only the four rollers 7 forming the ground contact surface. Combined with the U-shaped pins 5 securing the grip base 2, a stable push-pull training system is constructed. Users can hold the two grips 1 with both hands and perform push-pull training by using the rollers 7 to contact the ground. This design innovatively uses a symmetrical dual-roller massage component, significantly improving balance compared to traditional single-roller ab wheels, and is particularly beneficial for beginners to maintain stability during core muscle training.

[0044] (2) Plank support mode: such as Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the grip base 2 is rotated 180 degrees to achieve a change in shape. During operation, the two U-shaped pins 5 must first be removed. After rotating the grip base 2, the elbow support pad 9 faces upwards and the grip 1 faces downwards. The two U-shaped pins 5 are then reinserted to secure the grip base 2. The user can then support their forearm on the elbow support pad 9 and perform plank exercises. At this time, the elbow support pad 9 serves as the forearm support plane, the foam roller 8 is suspended in the air, and the four rollers 7 maintain contact with the ground, providing an ergonomically stable platform for the user's forearm support training.

[0045] (3) Foam roller pattern: such as Figure 6 As shown, based on the plank support mode, the entire device is rotated 180 degrees, resulting in a usage configuration where the four rollers 7, foam roller 8, and two handles 1 face upwards, while the surfaces of the two elbow pads 9 and the top edges of the two support side plates 4 face downwards and are in contact with the ground. Users can massage leg or back muscles using the textured surface of the foam roller 8. In this mode, the raised texture of the foam roller 8 effectively stimulates deep muscle tissue, and combined with the non-slip elbow pads 9, it achieves a professional-grade muscle relaxation effect while significantly improving the space utilization of the device through its three-in-one design.
