DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0039] The following is a summary of the subject matter described in detail herein. This summary is not intended to limit the scope of the claims.

[0040] As described in the background technology, the dumbbells and barbells in the related art are inconvenient to carry and have poor applicability. The inventors have found that the reason for this problem is that common dumbbells and barbells are made of cast iron materials, which are heavy and cannot be carried by users, and their weight is fixed and users cannot adjust their weight, resulting in poor applicability.

[0041] In response to the above technical problems, an embodiment of the present application provides a water bucket-based fitness component and fitness device, wherein the fitness component is connected to at least one water bucket using its connecting structure, and the gripping piece is connected to the connecting structure, and the water bucket can be a common bottled water bucket in a household.

[0042] With such a configuration, the fitness component provided in the embodiment of the present application can form a simple fitness device based on an idle bucket. The idle bucket is easy to obtain and carry, thus meeting people's needs for flexible fitness and has a low production cost. The weight of the bucket can also be easily adjusted to suit the weight required by people for different fitness, thereby improving its applicability.

[0043] In order to make the above-mentioned purposes, features and advantages of the embodiments of the present application more obvious and easy to understand, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative work are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0044] An embodiment of the present application provides a fitness component that is suitable for a water bucket. The water bucket can be a common bottled water bucket in a household. For example, the water bucket can be a common 4L, 5L, 6L and 10L bucket, and this embodiment does not limit this.

[0045] The fitness component further includes a gripping member and a connecting structure. The gripping member is configured to provide a gripping portion for the user to grasp during exercise. One side of the connecting structure is connected to the gripping member, and the other side is connected to at least one water bucket. The water bucket can be filled with water to increase the weight of the bucket, and the amount of water can be adjusted according to the user's exercise needs. For example, depending on the user's exercise needs, the fitness component can be configured as a kettlebell or a barbell. The following description will be based on the configuration of the fitness component as a kettlebell or a barbell.

[0046] As shown in Figures 1 to 3, the fitness assembly provided in the present embodiment is configured as a kettlebell, which is connected to a water bucket 60. Specifically, the gripping member is configured as a handle 10, which is connected to the connecting structure. Handle 10 includes a body 11 and a connecting portion 12. Body 11 is provided with a hollow portion to form a gripping portion, which includes at least a horizontal portion to facilitate gripping by the user.

[0047] This embodiment does not limit the shape of the main body 11 and the hollowing, and the grip formed conforms to the ergonomic design and improves the user's grip comfort; for example, the main body 11 has a certain counterweight, which can be made of stainless steel, cast iron and other materials to improve the structural strength and weight of the handle 10.

[0048] The handle 10 is connected to a connecting structure via its connecting portion 12, and further connected to a water bucket 60 via the connecting structure. For example, the connecting portion 12 may be provided with a threaded connection hole, and the water bucket 60 may have a lid mounting portion 61. In other words, the water bucket 60 may have a place to screw the lid. The connecting structure may be configured as a connecting thread provided on the lid mounting portion 61. The connecting thread is an external thread that mates with the threaded connection hole, so that the handle 10 can be mounted to the lid mounting portion 61 through the threaded connection hole, that is, the connecting portion 12 and the water bucket 60 can be connected together by a threaded connection.

[0049] It should be noted that the above-mentioned connection structure can be an external thread for installing a bucket cover, so based on an idle bucket, the handle 10 can be directly connected to the bucket 60 to form a simple kettlebell.

[0050] Compared with the fitness equipment made of cast iron materials in the related art (such as kettlebells), the fitness component provided in the embodiment of the present application can form a simple fitness device 100 based on an idle water bucket 60. The idle water bucket 60 is easy to obtain and carry, so it can meet people's needs for flexible fitness and has low production costs; and the weight of the water bucket 60 can be easily adjusted to suit the weight required by people for different fitness, thereby improving its applicability.

[0051] As shown in Figures 4 to 6, the present embodiment also provides another connection structure. To adapt to this connection structure, the connection portion 12 of the handle 10 can be adaptively modified. Specifically, the connection portion 12 is provided with a plug hole, which is opposite to the bucket cover mounting portion 61. The bucket cover mounting portion 61 has a water inlet 62. When the connection portion 12 is connected to the bucket 60, the plug hole and the water inlet 62 are connected.

[0052] Furthermore, the connection structure is configured as an expansion connector 20, and the expansion connector 20 has an expansion plug. One end of the expansion connector 20 is inserted into the water inlet 62, and the other end is inserted into the insertion hole, and the cap end 21 of the expansion connector 20 abuts against the connecting portion 12. That is, one end of the expansion connector 20 is inserted into the water inlet 62 through the insertion hole, and the cap end 21 abuts against the connecting portion 12.

[0053] The expansion plug has an expansion portion 22, and the expansion portion 22 is located within the water inlet 62. When the expansion connector 20 is inserted into the water bucket 60, the expansion plug is screwed, causing the expansion portion 22 to expand. The outer diameter of the expanded expansion portion 22 is larger than the diameter of the water inlet 62, allowing the expansion connector 20 to fit closely to the inner wall of the water inlet 62, thereby preventing the expansion connector 20 from falling out of the water bucket 60. In other words, the handle 10 and the water bucket 60 are connected together through the expansion connector 20, forming a simple kettlebell.

[0054] As shown in Figures 7 to 12, in another embodiment, the connecting structure is configured as a connecting cover 30, which includes a first cover body 31 and a second cover body 32. The first cover body 31 and the second cover body 32 can enclose a space for accommodating the bucket 60, and the first cover body 31 and the second cover body 32 are both connected to the connecting part 12; that is, the bucket 60 is set in the connecting cover 30, and the connecting cover 30 is further connected to the connecting part 12 of the handle 10.

[0055] For example, referring to Figures 7 to 9, in one embodiment, the connecting cover 30 wraps the bucket 60 along the length direction of the bucket 60, and the bottoms of the first cover body 31 and the second cover body 32 are combined together. This combination method includes that the bottoms of the first cover body 31 and the second cover body 32 are an integral structure and can be folded relative to each other; or the bottoms of the first cover body 31 and the second cover body 32 are connected together by a hinge structure, and this embodiment of the application is not limited to this.

[0056] A first clamp 33 is provided at the top of the first cover 31, and a second clamp 34 is provided at the second cover 32. Both the first clamp 33 and the second clamp 34 are semicircular and surround the connecting portion 12. The connecting portion 12 is generally cylindrical and is disposed near the lid mounting portion 61 of the bucket 60, i.e., the handle 10 is located at the top of the bucket 60.

[0057] Furthermore, the first clamp 33 and the first cover body 31 are an integral structure, the second clamp 34 and the second cover body 32 are an integral structure, and the first cover body 31 and the second cover body 32 have at least one notch along their radial direction, so that the outer diameter of the connecting cover 30 can be deformed under the action of external force to increase the outer diameter of the connecting cover 30 so that the bucket 60 can be placed in the connecting cover 30.

[0058] The first clamp 33 and the second clamp 34 are fitted with the outer peripheral surface of the connecting part 12. The first clamp 33 and the second clamp 34 are fastened to the connecting part 12 through a connecting piece, and the connecting piece includes but is not limited to a fastening bolt or a fastening screw, that is, the handle 10 is connected to the bucket 60 through the connecting cover 30 to form a simple kettlebell.

[0059] Referring to Figures 10 to 12, in another embodiment, the connection portion 12 is disposed near the middle of the barrel body of the water bucket 60, and the connection cover 30 is placed horizontally, and the water bucket 60 is placed horizontally within the connection cover 30. Furthermore, the bucket cover mounting portion 61 of the water bucket 60 is exposed. To enhance the stability of the water bucket 60 within the connection cover 30, the connection cover 30 further includes a clamping portion, which is connected to the first clamp 33 and the second clamp 34, and is sleeved on the bucket cover mounting portion 61 to secure the water bucket 60.

[0060] It can be understood that the above two different embodiments provide two different connection methods between the water bucket 60 and the connecting cover 30. Regardless of the connection method adopted by the two, one side of the first cover body 31 and the second cover body 32 of the connecting cover 30 is an integral structure, and the other side can be fastened together by a connecting piece; or, both sides of the first cover body 31 and the second cover body 32 are fastened together by a connecting piece to facilitate the installation of the water bucket 60 into the connecting cover 30.

[0061] As shown in FIG. 13 to FIG. 15 , the fitness component provided in the embodiment of the present application may also be a barbell, in which case both the gripping member and the connecting structure are adaptively changed, and a water bucket 60 is connected to each end of the connecting structure.

[0062] Specifically, the gripping member is configured as a connecting rod 40, which can be considered a barbell bar, and thus the bucket 60 can be considered a barbell plate. The connecting rod 40 has gripping portions spaced apart along its extension. The connecting structure is configured as two connecting sleeves 50, one at each end of the connecting rod 40, and each connecting sleeve 50 is connected to a bucket 60; that is, the connecting structure is configured as connecting sleeves 50 provided at each end of the connecting rod 40, and each connecting sleeve 50 is used to connect to a bucket 60.

[0063] Correspondingly, the connecting sleeve 50 is provided with a threaded connection hole, and the bucket cover mounting portion 61 of the bucket 60 is provided with a connecting thread. The connecting sleeve 50 is connected to the bucket cover mounting portion 61 through the threaded connection hole, so that the two ends of the connecting rod 40 are respectively connected to a bucket 60, and a simple barbell is formed.

[0064] It is understood that the connecting rod 40 and the water bucket 60 may also be connected by other connecting structures, such as the connecting cover, expansion connector, or adaptively deformed handle in the above embodiment, and this embodiment is not limited thereto. Preferably, the connecting rod 40 and the water bucket 60 are connected by a connecting sleeve 50.

[0065] The fitness device 100 provided in this embodiment includes the aforementioned fitness component and at least one water bucket 60. The fitness component includes a gripping member and a connecting structure, and the gripping member is connected to the water bucket 60 via the connecting structure, which will not be described in detail here. It should be understood that the water bucket 60 can be an unused household water bucket or a container provided by the fitness device 100 and adapted for the fitness component, including but not limited to the water bucket 60.
