Trampoline park frame

摘要

A support frame for the multiple jumping surfaces making up a trampoline park utilizes multiple trampoline support grid arrays, each consisting of support cable segments supported by a rectangular array of individual support columns. Each cable segment is attached to a separate pair of support columns within the array. Diagonal cross-brace cables likewise are attached to and extend between each separate pair of support columns. The adjacent paired support columns support the individual trampoline beds, with the loading occasioned by jumping users rapidly transferred to ground—the vertical loading through the support columns and the horizontal loading through the diagonal cross-brace cabling. The support frame includes peripheral support grid arrays having an outer grid of peripheral support columns with attached kick braces extending to adjacent outer support columns, completing the peripheral horizontal load paths.

主权项

1. A trampoline park frame comprising:
a plurality of support columns arranged in a rectangular grid array; a plurality of support cabling, each of said plurality of support cabling individually attached to and extending between a separate adjacent pair of said plurality of support columns in a manner such that collectively said plurality of attached support cabling and said support columns define a plurality of trampoline support grid arrays; a plurality of diagonal cross-brace cabling, each of said plurality of diagonal cross-brace cabling attached to and extending vertically diagonal between a separate one of said separate adjacent pairs of said plurality of support columns; a plurality of peripheral support columns extending in a grid array about an outer periphery of said plurality of trampoline support grid arrays, wherein a separate one of said plurality of support cabling is attached to and extends between each of said plurality of peripheral support columns and a separate adjacent one of said plurality of support columns; a plurality of kick braces, each of said plurality of kick braces is attached to a separate one of said plurality of peripheral support columns and extends and is attached to said separate adjacent one of said plurality of support columns to which said separate one of said plurality of support cabling is attached; and a plurality of peripheral rails, each of said plurality of peripheral rails is attached to and extends between a separate pair of said plurality of peripheral support columns.
