  • Patent number: 5554074
    Abstract: A playground deck is supported above the ground on a center pedestal through radially extending cantilevered arms connected to plates on the exterior of the pedestal and to each other through a ring disposed at the axial center of the pedestal thereby providing an integral support frame for pie shaped deck sections which include hollow plastic shells filled with plastic foam. The support arms have bottom and intermediate ledges on opposite sides which engage the pie sections for support and structural strength. A rounded nose portion may be connected to each of the pie sections at their outer ends to give the deck a circular shape. A plate interconnects the outer ends of the arms and the nose portions to the pie sections to rigidify the support framework. A web climber may be connected to the deck and includes a grid work of horizontal and vertical cables locked together at junctions by locking blocks which clamp the cables against each other.
