IMPROVEMENTS IN OR RELATING TO TRAMPOLINES

摘要

A trampoline comprising a flexible mat connected to a frame by one or more resilient members such that the flexible mat is held above the ground in tension. The trampoline may comprise a plurality of support poles, each pole arranged to be connected to the frame to extend upwardly from the frame and a surround of flexible material arranged to be connected to the support poles to extend around and above the flexible mat. Each pole may be arranged to be connected to the frame at two locations such that the pole is deformed (from its natural state) to extend upwardly from the frame between the two locations. The surround may be connected to a portion of each support pole between the two locations. In one embodiment, the surround comprises at least one opaque panel extending, in use, between a pair of support poles and substantially a full height of the support poles. A series of openings may be provided in the opaque panel through which a user can be viewed, the openings spaced one above the other and each opening having a width significantly less than the width of the opaque panel or alternatively an opening may be provided in a centre of the opaque panel.
