  • Patent number: 4097043
    Abstract: A playground climber comprises one or more equally sized dodecahedron-shaped modules, two or more of which of equal size are joined together along a face of each. The modules are each made up of pieces of pipe of equal length attached together at their ends using a connector, each module having twelve faces and twenty corners, each face having five sides, and each corner being formed by the juncture of three pipes. Each module is a regular dodecahedron with structural members so positioned that a child can reach the members. Also, the majority of the faces of the dodecahedrons are open to permit a child to pass therethrough. The structural members of each face of each dodecahedron are spaced close enough to each other to permit a child to grasp the structural members of a regular pentagon, which forms each face of the dodecahedron, while climbing thereon.
