Abstract

A hygienic covering assembly for exercise equipment includes a first panel and a second panel. A connector that is coupled to a back of the first panel is configured to selectively and removably couple the first panel to a contact element of a respective piece of exercise equipment so that the first panel substantially covers an upper surface of the contact element. A plurality of first couplers is coupled to a front, proximate to a circumference, of the first panel. The second panel comprises cloth and is configured to absorb sweat and oils. A plurality of second couplers is coupled proximate to a perimeter of the second panel. Each second coupler is positioned to selectively couple to a respective first coupler to removably couple the second panel to the first panel, positioning the second panel to absorb the sweat and oils from a body of a user.

Claims

1. A hygienic covering assembly comprising:

a first panel;

a connector coupled to a back of the first panel wherein the connector is configured for selectively removably coupling the first panel to a contact element of a respective piece of exercise equipment such that the first panel substantially covers an upper surface of the contact element; and

a plurality of first couplers coupled to a front of the first panel proximate to a circumference of the first panel;

a second panel, the second panel comprising cloth wherein the second panel is configured for absorbing sweat and oils; and

a plurality of second couplers coupled to the second panel proximate to a perimeter of the second panel, the second couplers being complementary to the first couplers wherein each second coupler is positioned for selectively coupling to a respective first coupler for removably coupling the second panel to the first panel positioning the second panel for absorbing sweat and oils from a body of a user.

2. The assembly of claim 1, further including the first panel being shaped substantially complementarily to an upper surface of the contact element of the respective piece of exercise equipment.

3. The assembly of claim 1, further including the first panel comprising at least one of rubber, latex, polyvinyl chloride, nitrile rubber, and neoprene.

4. The assembly of claim 1, further including the connector comprising a sleeve coupled to the back of the first panel proximate to a first end of the first panel, the sleeve being resiliently stretchable wherein the sleeve is configured for stretching for selectively inserting an end section of the contact element of the respective piece of exercise equipment and for rebounding for removably coupling the first panel to the contact element of the respective piece of exercise equipment.

5. The assembly of claim 4, further including the sleeve comprising at least one of rubber, latex, polyvinyl chloride, nitrile rubber, and neoprene.

6. The assembly of claim 1, further including the second panel comprising at least one of cotton, polyester, wool, flax, and hemp.

7. The assembly of claim 1, further including the second coupler and the respective first coupler comprising at least one of a snap closure and a hook and loop fastener.

8. The assembly of claim 1, further including the first panel and the plurality of first couplers being integral to the contact element of the respective piece of exercise equipment.

9. A hygienic covering assembly comprising:

a first panel, the first panel being shaped substantially complementarily to an upper surface of a contact element of a respective piece of exercise equipment, the first panel comprising at least one of rubber, latex, polyvinyl chloride, nitrile rubber, and neoprene;

a connector coupled to a back of the first panel wherein the connector is configured for selectively removably coupling the first panel to the contact element of the respective piece of exercise equipment such that the first panel substantially covers the upper surface of the contact element, the connector comprising a sleeve coupled to the back of the first panel proximate to a first end of the first panel, the sleeve being resiliently stretchable wherein the sleeve is configured for stretching for selectively inserting an end section of the contact element of the respective piece of exercise equipment and for rebounding for removably coupling the first panel to the contact element of the respective piece of exercise equipment, the sleeve comprising at least one of rubber, latex, polyvinyl chloride, nitrile rubber, and neoprene;

a plurality of first couplers coupled to a front of the first panel proximate to a circumference of the first panel;

a second panel, the second panel comprising cloth wherein the second panel is configured for absorbing sweat and oils, the second panel comprising at least one of cotton, polyester, wool, flax, and hemp; and

a plurality of second couplers coupled to the second panel proximate to a perimeter of the second panel, the second couplers being complementary to the first couplers wherein each second coupler is positioned for selectively coupling to a respective first coupler for removably coupling the second panel to the first panel positioning the second panel for absorbing sweat and oils from a body of a user, the second coupler and the respective first coupler comprising at least one of a snap closure and a hook and loop fastener.

10. The assembly of claim 9, further including the first panel and the plurality of first couplers being integral to the contact element of the respective piece of exercise equipment.
