Abstract
A two-handed dumbbell lifting device is disclosed for picking up, using, and moving dumbbells. The two-handed dumbbell lifting device comprises a two-piece body that can be attached to a dumbbell handle or bar, and a pair of grips attached to opposing sides of the body providing a left and right grip for the user. The two-handed dumbbell lifting device also comprises various pivot points that enable the grip to tilt at selected positions and further will enable the grip to rotate along different degrees of axis as related to the body. The two-handed dumbbell lifting device also comprise a locking feature that will lock the two body halves together around the existing dumbbell handle or bar.
Claims20
A two-handed dumbbell lifting device comprising:
- a left body comprised of a first spacer and a right body comprised of a second spacer, the first spacer and the second spacer configured to join and form a spacer bushing;
- a left handle assembly comprising:
- a first handle base pivotally connected to the left body via a first rotating handle axis point, enabling rotation of the left handle assembly relative to the left body;
- a first tilting handle arm assembly attached to the left handle base configured to adjust an angle of a first grip on the first tilting handle arm assembly;
- a first rotating handle lock assembly associated with the left handle base, configured to lock the rotation of the left handle base at a selected position;
- a right handle assembly comprising:
- a second handle base pivotally connected to the right body via a second rotating handle axis point, enabling rotation of the right handle assembly relative to the right body;
- a second tilting handle arm assembly attached to the right handle base configured to adjust an angle of a second grip on the second tilting handle arm assembly;
- and
- a second rotating handle lock assembly associated with the right handle base, configured to lock the rotation of the right handle base at a selected position.
A two-handed dumbbell lifting device comprising:
- a left body portion comprising a first spacer and a right body portion comprised of a second spacer;
- a left handle assembly comprising:
- a first handle base that is rotatably mounted to the left body portion and pivotable around a first axis point to adjust a rotational angle of the left handle assembly;
- a first tiltable handle arm assembly attached to the first handle base, wherein the first handle arm assembly includes a first grip and is configured to tilt relative to the first handle base;
- a first locking mechanism configured to secure the rotation of the left handle base to a first predetermined angle;
- a right handle assembly comprising:
- a second handle base that is rotatably mounted to the right body portion and pivotable around a second axis point to adjust a rotational angle of the right handle assembly;
- a second tiltable handle arm assembly attached to the second handle base, wherein the second handle arm assembly includes a second grip and is configured to tilt relative to the second handle base;
- and
- a second locking mechanism configured to secure the rotation of the right handle base to a second predetermined angle.
A two-handed dumbbell lifting device comprising:
- a left body comprised of a first spacer and a right body comprised of a second spacer, the first spacer and the second spacer configured to join and form a spacer bushing;
- a left handle assembly comprising:
- a first rotatable handle base that pivots around a first axis point attached to the left body;
- a first handle arm assembly that tilts relative to a first handle base to adjust a first angle of a first grip attached to the first handle arm assembly;
- and
- a first locking pin configured to secure the left handle assembly in a rotational position or a tilting position;
- a right handle assembly comprising:
- a second rotatable handle base that pivots around a second axis point attached to the right body;
- a second handle arm assembly that tilts relative to a second handle base to adjust a second angle of a second grip attached to the second handle arm assembly;
- and
- a second locking pin configured to secure the right handle assembly in a rotational position or a tilting position.
