Abstract: A playground roof system having the capability of being attached to different diameter support members is provided. The frame of the roof structure is roto-molded such that two different sized openings are provided at each corner of the frame, each opening in the same area, such that the roof is interchangeable in different playground systems. The roof system further includes openings formed in the frame such that a fastener can be threaded therein fastening the frame and support members together.

Abstract: The coupling assembly connects at least first and second members of a structure. The first member has at least a first end with an outer surface, and at least one attachment means is located on the first end of the first member. A collar has at least one attachment means for engaging the at least one attachment means on the first end of the first member, the collar being located on the outer surface of the first end of the first member. A cap surrounds at least the collar on the first end of the first member, the cap having a first end oriented toward the first end of the first member and a second end opposed from the first end. The cap has a lip on the second end, the lip being structured to engage the collar to thereby prevent removal of the cap off the first end. The cap has first connecting means at least on the first end of the cap. A base has a first end connected to the second member, and has a second end, opposed from the first end.

Abstract: A recreation system resembling a jungle scene is provided with platform elements surrounded by and elevated by support members disguised to look like bamboo rods and tree branches with leaves. The support elements are generally made of pipe materials covered with foam and plastic cable ties so as to resemble bamboo. The tree branch elements are interlocking members designed to appear as tree branches and are changeable to allow for different configurations of tree elements by pulling the present elements apart and then pushing them together in other configurations. The recreation system includes jungle and bird noises and simulated lightning and thunder which are activated during play on the recreation system. The recreation system allows the user to pretend to be in a jungle setting during play.
