Hand held exercising device

Abstract

An exercising device includes a housing member having one or more rollers, and having a spindle, a handle device includes a shank having a head attached to the spindle for allowing the shank of the handle device to be pivoted relative to the housing member, and a latch device slidably attached to the housing member and engageable with the handle device for positioning the shank of the handle device to the housing member at a selected angular position. The head of the shank of the handle device includes one or more notches, and the latch device includes a latch member slidably attached to the housing member and having one or more pawls for engaging with the notches of the head and for positioning the shank of the handle device to the housing member at the selected angular position.

I claim: 
     
         1 . An exercising device comprising:
 a housing member including at least one roller attached to said housing member, said housing member including a spindle provided therein,   a handle device including a shank having a first end portion, a head attached to said first end portion of said shank and engageable onto said spindle of said housing member, for allowing said shank of said handle device to be pivoted relative to said housing member, and   a latch device slidably attached to said housing member and engageable with said handle device for positioning said shank of said handle device to said housing member at a selected angular position.   
     
     
         2 . The exercising device as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein said housing member includes a compartment formed therein and defined by two side walls and an end wall, said spindle of said housing member is attached between said side walls of said housing member. 
     
     
         3 . The exercising device as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein said head of said shank of said handle device includes at least one notch formed therein, and said latch device includes a latch member slidably attached to said housing member and having at least one pawl extended therefrom for engaging with said at least one first notch of said head of said handle device and for positioning said shank of said handle device to said housing member at said selected angular position. 
     
     
         4 . The exercising device as claimed in  claim 3 , wherein said housing member includes at least one orifice formed therein for slidably engaging with said at least one pawl of said latch member. 
     
     
         5 . The exercising device as claimed in  claim 3 , wherein said housing member includes a carrier attached to said housing member and engaged with said latch member for supporting said latch member to said housing member. 
     
     
         6 . The exercising device as claimed in  claim 3 , wherein said head of said shank of said handle device includes at least one second notch formed therein for selectively engaging with said at least one pawl of said latch member. 
     
     
         7 . The exercising device as claimed in  claim 6 , wherein said head of said shank of said handle device includes at least one third notch formed therein for selectively engaging with said at least one pawl of said latch member. 
     
     
         8 . The exercising device as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein said housing member includes at least one wire coupled to said housing member for applying a spring biasing force to said housing member.
