Dumbbell with adjustable weight
A dumbbell with adjustable weight essentially includes a handle, two first weight blocks, two second weight blocks, and two position-limiting elements. The handle has a gripping portion and two arms protruding outward from the gripping portion. The first weight blocks are removably disposed around the arms of the handle, respectively. The second weight blocks are removably disposed around the first weight blocks, respectively. The position-limiting elements abut against the second weight blocks ends, respectively. Hence, a user can adjust the total weight of the dumbbell by changing or removing the second weight blocks.
1. A dumbbell with adjustable weight, comprising:
a handle having a gripping portion and two arms protruding outward from two opposing ends of the gripping portion, respectively;
two first weight blocks removably disposed around the arms of the handle, respectively, and each having an opening end abutting against the gripping portion and an end opposing the opening end and penetrated by a corresponding one of the arms;
two second weight blocks removably disposed around the first weight blocks, respectively, and each having an end penetrated by a corresponding one of the arms; and
two position-limiting elements disposed at the arms for abutting against the ends of the second weight blocks, respectively.
2. The dumbbell with adjustable weight of claim 1 , wherein a thread segment is disposed at each of the two arms of the handle and spaced apart from the gripping portion, and the position-limiting elements are screwed to the thread segments of the arms so as to abut against the second weight blocks, respectively, thereby allowing the first and second weight blocks to be fixed to the handle.
3. The dumbbell with adjustable weight of claim 2 , wherein the position-limiting elements each have a body and a blind hole penetrating an end of the body, and a thread is disposed on a wall of the blind hole.
4. The dumbbell with adjustable weight of claim 2 , wherein the position-limiting elements each have a body and a through hole penetrating the body, and a thread is disposed on a wall of the through hole.
5. The dumbbell with adjustable weight of claim 1 , wherein the first weight blocks each have an outer wall, and the second weight blocks each have an inner wall, such that the outer walls of the first weight blocks correspond in shape to the inner walls of the second weight blocks, respectively.
6. The dumbbell with adjustable weight of claim 1 , wherein the first and second weight blocks each have a ring-shaped cross-section.
7. The dumbbell with adjustable weight of claim 1 , wherein the first and second weight blocks have an outer wall each, and the outer walls of the first and second weight blocks have a flat side each.
8. The dumbbell with adjustable weight of claim 1 , wherein the first weight blocks have an outer wall each, and the second weight blocks have an inner wall each, such that the outer wall of each of the first weight blocks has a flat side and the inner wall of each of the second weight blocks has a flat side corresponding in position to the flat side of a corresponding one of the first weight blocks.
9. The dumbbell with adjustable weight of claim 1 , wherein the gripping portion of the handle has an outer wall, and the outer wall has a recess.
10. The dumbbell with adjustable weight of claim 1 , wherein the second weight blocks each have an opening end opposite to the end, such that the opening ends of the second weight blocks are flush with the opening ends of the first weight blocks, respectively, when the second weight blocks are disposed around the first weight blocks, respectively.
