TRAMPOLINE WITH ENCLOSURE

摘要

A fence (30) surrounds a trampoline (20) and extends above the rebounding surface, reduc-ing the risk of injury. Shock absorption is aided in one embodiment by a support system of indepen-dent poles (86) linked at their tops by a flexible strap, or line (128). An impact anywhere on the fence causes the posts to flex inwardly, absorbing the force. Much of this impact injury is stored in system components, and is subsequently returned helping propel an errant jumper back onto the rebounding surface. One or more elastic cords can extend across the enclosed trampoline area to serve as a game accessory, either alone or in conjunction with other structures. Such an elastic cord can also support a tent-like structure over the rebounding surface. Numerous other embodi-ments, and various other trampoline game acces-sories (including electronic components, and wa-ter toys) are also detailed. Similar arrangements are suitable for use with above ground pools.
