Description
SPECIFICATION Weighttrainingbody building device
This invention relates to the training of the body for fitness and the building of the bodyforstrengtji.
Weight training and body building devices are many, and vary from the simple straight barwith weights at each end to sophisticated gym sets requiring pivots and pulleys. Other devices require exertion against the action of a spring. Mostbodysculpture equipment is expensive and often has to be purchased in kit form, some ofwhich is lying idle until such times as the user's body had developed the strength to include it.
According to the present invention there is provided a steel tube with end blanking caps. Secured into the blanking caps are handles with plastic moulded grips. Extra weights can befitted over the external circumference of the steel tube. Running through the centre of the steel tube and passing into the 'T' handles is a steel weight rack. Tinsfilied with anything from sand to lead pellets are inserted into the weight rack, or alternatively a properly manufactured set of weight discs can be inserted.
A specific embodiment of the invention will now be described by way of example with reference to the accompanying drawing inwhich:
Figure 1 shows in plan form the complete device.
Only one external weight is shown for reasons of clarity.
Figure 2 shows the weight rack removed from main body.
Figure 3 shows one ofthe tins removed from the weight rack.
Figure 4shows the alternative weight discs required to fill one segment ofthe weight rack.
Referring to the drawing the device comprises a steel tube 10with end blanking caps 12. Secured into the end blanking caps are 'T' handles 14with
moulded hand grips. Surrounding the.external cir
cumference of the steel tube are weights 15 with
integral positioning grub screw. Through the centre ofthe steel tube and protruding through the end
blanking caps into the'T' handles is a weight rack 16.
The weight rack is required as a housing fortins 17 with screw on lids. Metal discs 18 provide an alternative to the tins.
In order to increase or decrease external or internal weights, one of the end blanking caps 12 is remov
able. When unscrewed complete with 'T' handle 14 an
external weight can be slipped overthe steel tube 10, ortheweight rack 16can be pulled outand atin 17 or weights 18 can be added internally. The end blanking
cap with 'T' handle can then be screwed back into
place.
