The dumbbell, a type of free weight, is a piece of equipment used in weight training. It can be used individually or in pairs, with one in each hand.

Dumbbell that can respond to exercise status and play music

A dumbbell that can respond to exercise status and play music by which a user can clearly understand the exercise status with the dumbbell when using the dumbbell, includes a sensor unit for sensing a movement of the dumbbell, and a control circuit containing a micro processor, a display unit, a trumpet, and a plurality of press buttons. The micro processor receives a signal of exercising, performs calculation or summation to time duration, number of times, and energy consumption of a continuous exercise, and outputs the outcomes through the display unit, based on settings of the press buttons. Voice and music generation circuits, installed inside the micro processor, can also receive a signal of exercising including number of times and time duration of a continuous exercise, output a related voice or music in a rhythm through the trumpet based on the settings of the press buttons.

Weight selection and adjustment system for selectorized dumbbells including motorized selector positioning

A weight selection and adjustment system for a selectorized dumbbell comprises a stand that holds a pair of selectorized dumbbells. The stand has an electric motor that is selectively energized by a controller for substantially simultaneously adjusting the weight of both dumbbells. The controller is responsive to a weight selection made by a user through a data entry device. The system can also be used with a single dumbbell placed on the stand. Alternatively, the electric motor can be mounted on the handle of a selectorized dumbbell to allow weight adjustment operations to be made without placing the selectorized dumbbell on a stand. In this embodiment, the data entry device and controller can also be carried on the handle of each selectorized dumbbell.

Device to Position Dumbbells for Exercise

An apparatus to hold and position dumbbells with adjustment through three dimensions (vertical, horizontal and forward and backward) so as to provide an elevated and precisely positioned starting and ending position for the dumbbells used in a dumbbell exercise. The apparatus may be configured as a stand-alone device, an attachment to another piece of equipment (such as a power rack or bench press) or integrated into another piece of exercise equipment such as a lying / incline / seated press apparatus. It enables adjustment of the dumbbell position by the user while the user is positioned for the exercise, as well as prior to assuming the position for the exercise, to provide precise positioning as desired by each individual user. It features a channeling device which guides a user's hands, wrists and arms when returning the dumbbell to the holder.
