ADAPTABLE BAR

Abstract

An adaptable bar with means at the ends thereof for securing same between two opposite surfaces is provided that includes a variable-angle attachment unit with a movable double spider that allows the joining angle between the variable-angle attachment unit and the bar to be changed and fixed in two axes of space, the length of the bar being adjustable by means of inner tubes provided with threaded units. The attachment unit includes a plate for securing to a wall, which plate is secured independently and on which the bar fits. The movable double spider includes a cardan joint to which is joined, on one side, respective lugs of a connection base with a pin that provides an articulated joint in a first axis of the space, and on the other side, a connector with another pin perpendicular to the first that provides another articulated joint in a second axis of the space.

PREFERRED EMBODIMENT OF THE INVENTION

[0026] In light of the aforementioned figures, and in accordance with the numbering adopted, a non-limiting exemplary embodiment of the adaptable bar of the invention may be observed therein, which comprises the parts and elements indicated and described in detail below.

[0027] Thus, as seen in said figures, the pull-up bar of the invention, made up of a single bar (1) itself with wall securing means at the ends thereof for securing same between two opposing surfaces, comprises, on at least one of said ends, a variable-angle attachment unit (2) that includes a movable double spider (21) which allows the joining angle between said variable-angle attachment unit (2) and the bar (1) itself to be changed and fixed in two axes of the space.

[0028] In the preferred embodiment, however, the bar (1) has at both ends a variable-angle attachment unit (2) with a movable double spider (21) which allows the joining angle thereof with the bar (1) itself to be changed and fixed in two axes of the space.

[0029] In any case, the variable-angle attachment unit (2) comprises a plate for securing to the wall (22) which is secured independently by means of self-tapping screws (23) and eventually the corresponding wall plugs thereof, and whereon the bar (1) is then fitted, preferably through a connection base (24) which can be inserted into a guide (25) envisaged for this purpose in said securing plate (22). Optionally, ornamental covers are envisaged in order to cover the securing plates (22) when the bar (1) is not fitted.

[0030] Preferably, the movable double spider (21), as seen in the detail of FIGS. 4 and 6, comprises a cardan joint (26) to which is joined, on one side, respective lugs of the connection base (24) with a pin (27) that provides an articulated joint in a first axis of the space, and on the other side, a connector (28) with another pin (27) perpendicular to the first that provides another articulated joint in a second axis of the space, this connector (28) being joined, in turn, to the bar (1) on the opposite side thereof.

[0031] Additionally, the variable-angle attachment unit (2) is covered and protected with an ornamental bellows (29) which covers all the elements thereof, including the aforementioned securing plate (22).

[0032] Moreover, the means for adjusting the length that the bar (1) according to the invention also has preferably comprise two inner tubes (11), joined at one end to the respective securing ends of the bar, preferably the two variable-angle attachment units (2), and at the opposite end to a central outer tube (12), by means of respective threaded units (13), one right-handed and the other left-handed, which, in turn, as seen in the detail of FIG. 5, comprise a conical screw (14) integral with the inner tube (11) which threads into a nut (15) integral with the outer tube (12).

[0033] Finally, it should be noted that, preferably, both the joint of the end of the inner tube (11) on each side of the bar (1) with the connector (28) of the respective attachment units (2) and the joint, on the other end of the inner tube (11) with the conical screw (14), is performed by means of pins (16).

[0034] Having sufficiently described the nature of the present invention, as well as the ways of implementing it, it is not considered necessary to extend its explanation for any expert in the state of the art to understand its scope and the advantages which derive from it, specifying that, within its essential nature, it can be carried out in other embodiments that differ in detail from the one provided by way of example, and which are also covered by the requested protection, provided that they do not alter, change or modify its fundamental principle.
