<p>This invention provides bell weight support apparatus for supporting a bell weight comprising a weight portion and a bar, and includes a base assembly (40), and elongate support means (43) on the base assembly (40) adapted to receive the weight portion at one of a plurality of positions therealong and supporting the bell weight with the bar thereof clear of the elongate support means (43). The base assembly (40) can be free standing or adapted to be fixed to a wall, floor or the like. The base assembly (40) may include means for adjustment (13) or selection of the height thereof whereby the height of the elongate support means (43) may be adjustable or selected. Further, the base assembly (40) may include adjustment means permitting adjustment of the relative positions of a user bench (41) and the elongate support means (43) with respect thereto. Supporting the weights or bells rather than the bar the elongate support means (43) makes use of the enlarged diameter of the bells relative to the bar to support the bell weights with the bar clear of the elongate support means (43). The elongate support means (43) may comprise an elongate gutter or part circular or elliptical cross section or may comprise a pair of spaced bars (46, 47, 54) or rollers. The supporting height of the gutter may be selected such that the bell weight will not readily roll transversely through the gutter when released from the lip, but should not be so deep as to require excess lifting to discharge the bell weight.</p> |
