Abstract
A foldable handle for skateboard includes a base plate adapted to be fixed on a base board of a skateboard; two opposed upright plates, fixed on the base plate and spaced apart from each other; a handle, pivoted between the upright plates, and which does not contact the base plate; a gripping mechanism for gripping releasably the handle, disposed between the upright plates along a side of the handle; and a block member, fixed between the upright plates along an opposite side of the handle from the gripping mechanism for blocking the handle; thereby, when the gripping mechanism is released, the handle is foldable to rest transversely on the base board of the skateboard from an operative position. Furthermore, the foldable handle can be used with the skateboard for exercise as soon as it is restored to the operative position.

A foldable handle for a skateboard comprising:
- a base plate adapted to be fixed on a base board of a skateboard;
- two opposed upright plates, fixed on said base plate and spaced apart from each other at a predetermined distance;
- a handle, pivoted between said two upright plates, and which does not contact said base plate at a lower end portion of the handle;
- a gripping mechanism, disposed between said two upright plates along a side of said handle, including a gripping element pivoted between said two upright plates, and a resilient member biasing said gripping element upwardly to grip said lower end portion of said handle;
- and
- a block member, fixed between said two upright plates along an opposite side of said handle from said gripping mechanism so that, said block member, said two upright plates and said gripping mechanism surround closely and locate said lower end portion of said handle in position;
- whereby, when said gripping element is moved downward against said resilient member to disconnect with said lower end portion of said handle, said handle is capable of being folded to rest on said base board of said skateboard.
