Bar and disc set with coupling elements

Abstract

A bar and weight discs assembly with disc holding elements intended for sports reveals a set with a bar and at least one disc for weight exercises or weightlifting, where said set is obtained by coupling the discs to the bar without the need to use other coupling means such as bar clamps or safety collars, the set can be used both for an exercise bar of the conventional type of 28 mm in diameter or for an Olympic bar of 50 mm in diameter, as well as the discs that are inserted in the bar (1) which can be of different weights.

Claims

1. A bar and disc assembly comprising: a bar (1) with a first end and a second end; and a plurality of weight discs (2); wherein the first end and the second end each further comprises a stop (3) and a plurality of rails (4) extending between the respective end of the bar (1) and the respective stop (3); wherein each of the plurality of rails (4) is disposed over a circumference of the first end and the second end of the bar; wherein each of the plurality of rails (4) further comprises a plurality of holes (5) located orthogonally on both sides along a length of said rails (4); and wherein the plurality of weight discs (2) comprises at least 4 pins (6) fixedly attached to an inner circle of the plurality of weight discs (2) that allow the plurality of weight discs (2) to be inserted into the plurality of rails and be secured via the plurality of holes (5) of the bar (1).

2. The bar and disc assembly according to claim 1, which is characterized in that the bar (1) is a conventional bar of 28 mm diameter.

3. The bar and disc assembly according to claim 1, which is characterized in that the bar (1) is an Olympic bar of 50 mm diameter.

4. The bar and disc assembly according to claim 1, which is characterized in that the plurality of weight discs (2) are of different weights.

Description

DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

(1) To complement the description that is being made and in order to help a better understanding of the characteristics of the invention, in accordance with a preferred example of the practical embodiment of the same, is accompanied as an integral part of said description, a set of drawings in which, by way of illustration and not limitation, the following has been represented:

(2) FIG. 1.—Shows a view of the exercise bar (1) of the present invention, where can be seen the plurality of rails (4) and the holes (5) above and below the bar (1).

(3) FIG. 2.—Shows a view of the different discs (2) that can be used with the bar (1), where the pins (6) are shown in each of the discs (2).

DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

(4) The present invention reveals a set consisting of a bar (1) and at least one disc (2) for weight exercises or weightlifting, where said set is obtained by coupling the discs (2) to the bar (1) without the need to use other coupling means such as bar clamps or safety collars, the set can be used both for an exercise bar (1) of the conventional type of 28 mm in diameter or for an Olympic bar (1) of 50 mm in diameter, as well as the discs (2) that are inserted in the bar (1) which can be of different weights.

(5) The bar (1) has two stops (3) at a certain distance from the ends of the bar (1), at each end of the bar a plurality of rails (4) have been made that extend between the ends of the bar (1) and the stops (3). Each of said rails (4) has a plurality of holes (5) above and below said rails (4).

(6) The discs (2) each have at least 4 pins (6) which, inserted in the hole (5) of the bar (1), prevent the discs (2) that have been previously inserted in the end of the bar from coming out (1) at the time of placing the load formed by said discs (2).

(7) The set allows a comfortable coupling of the discs (2) with the bar (1), in such a way that it is not necessary to apply pressure to place the discs (2) and the bar (1), as well as avoiding their sliding.

(8) By having a greater coupling due to the effect of the pins (6) in the discs (2) and the holes (5) in the bar (1), it is not necessary to implement external clamps in order to prevent the discs from sliding and coming off the bar (1), so that the user, in addition to obtaining greater security, can change the discs (2) quicker, since he does not need to uncouple external elements that hold the discs in place (2).
