Abstract

A health club accessory comprising: a front semicylindrical wall, with a top surface; a rear wall attached to the front semicylindrical wall; a bottom wall attached to the front semicylindrical wall and rear wall, the front semicylindrical, the rear wall, and the bottom wall defining a semicylindrical volume; and a magnet located flush on the rear wall.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . A health club accessory comprising:
 a front semicylindrical wall, with a top surface;   a rear wall attached to the front semicylindrical wall;   a bottom wall attached to the front semicylindrical wall and rear wall, the front semicylindrical wall, the rear wall, and the bottom wall defining a semicylindrical volume; and   at least one magnet located flush on the rear wall.   
   
   
       2 . The health club accessory of  claim 1 , wherein there are two magnets located flush on the rear wall. 
   
   
       3 . The health club accessory of  claim 1 , further comprising:
 a non-slip material attached to the rear wall, and located below the at least one magnet.   
   
   
       4 . The health club accessory of  claim 1 , wherein the non-slip material is 32 mil 60 Grit silicone carbide. 
   
   
       5 . The health club accessory of  claim 1 , further comprising:
 an elongated holding member extending downwardly from the rear wall;   two orthogonal members located at a distal end of the holding member, the two orthogonal members being generally at right angles to the elongated holding member;   a space located between the two orthogonal members.   
   
   
       6 . The health club accessory of  claim 1 , further comprising:
 a handle member attached to the bottom wall, and extending out from semicylindrical front wall by a distance D, the handle member comprising:   an underside;   a downward extending handle, an upwardly extending guide extending from the handle;   a towel surface located on the handle member between the upwardly extending guide and the semicylindrical front wall;   a semicylindrical groove located on the underside of the handle member;   
   
   
       7 . The health club accessory of  claim 1 , further comprising:
 a taper on the rear wall with an angle θ, which creates a fulcrum point on the rear wall.   
   
   
       8 . The health club accessory of  claim 5 , wherein the length of the space between the two orthogonal members decreases from a maximum distance of S 1  between the distal ends of the two orthogonal members to a minimum distance of S 2  between the proximal ends of the two orthogonal members. 
   
   
       9 . The health club accessory of  claim 7 , wherein the angle θ is between about 2° and 10°. 
   
   
       10 . The health club accessory of  claim 7 , wherein the angle θ is about 4°. 
   
   
       11 . The health club accessory of  claim 6 , wherein the distance D is between about ¾″ to about 3″. 
   
   
       12 . The health club accessory of  claim 6 , wherein the distance D is between about 1¼″ to about 1½″. 
   
   
       13 . The health club accessory of  claim 1 , wherein the health club accessory is generally manufactured from one of the materials selected from the group consisting of metal, plastic, wood, and fiberglass.

       15 . The health club of accessory of  claim 1 , wherein the at least one magnet is strong enough to hold from about 2 to about 20 pounds of weight. 
   
   
       16 . The health club accessory of  claim 1 , wherein the at least one magnet is strong enough to hold about 3 pounds of weight. 
   
   
       17 . A health club accessory comprising:
 a front semicylindrical wall, with a top surface;   a rear wall attached to the front semicylindrical wall;   a bottom wall attached to the front semicylindrical wall and rear wall, the front semicylindrical wall, the rear wall, and the bottom wall defining a semicylindrical volume;   a handle member attached to the bottom wall, and extending out from semicylindrical front wall by a distance D, the handle member comprising:
 an underside; 
 a downward extending handle, an upwardly extending guide extending from the handle; 
 a towel surface located on the handle member between the upwardly extending guide and the semicylindrical front wall; 
 a semicylindrical groove located on the underside of the handle member; 
   an elongated holding member extending downwardly from the rear wall   two orthogonal members located at a distal end of the holding member, the two orthogonal members being generally at right angles to the elongated holding member;   a space located between the two orthogonal members;   a taper on the rear wall with an angle θ, which creates a fulcrum point on the rear wall; and   at least one magnet located flush on the rear wall.   
   
   
       18 . The health club accessory of  claim 17 , wherein there are two magnets located flush on the rear wall.
