Abstract: A play system floor includes a frame defining the periphery of an area to be floored and a webbed flooring constructed of a webbing material extending between the frame members. The webbing material has an optimal predetermined stretch coefficient at which it retains its resiliency, while resisting sagging. The webbed flooring is sized using the stretch coefficient whereby the dimensions of the webbed flooring when stretched substantially correspond to the dimensions of the area to be floored. The webbed flooring is stretched to the dimensions of the area to be floored and secured to the frame. The floor is stretched to the dimensions of the area to be floored by positioning a bar through loops on each side of the weaved flooring, and applying tension to each bar. The webbed flooring is secured to the frame by attaching each bar to the frame using clamps, bands, or other attaching devices. Tension to each bar is applied by operating a screw-actuated clamping member to tighten the bar against the frame.

Abstract: A side bracket for netting has a top, a bottom, two opposed sides, a plurality of net loops extending along the netting top, bottom and sides, and an elastic cord threaded through at least one of the top and bottom net loops. The bracket comprises a base having two opposed ends and located adjacent at least one of the netting sides. A net loop receiving member is disposed between the two ends. A housing is provided for the elastic cord. The bracket further comprises a mechanism for attaching the cord housing to the base, and a mechanism for attaching the netting to a desired surface. A process for assembling the netting to the bracket comprises the step of placing a row of side net loops over a corresponding number of net loop receiving members.

Abstract: An assembly of a plurality of hooks with a particular curtain structure is disclosed. The curtain structure includes straps which extend from an edge of a curtain and a fabric layer attached to the curtain in the vicinity of each strap. Each hook has first and second spaced legs which depend from a web, and a third leg which depends from the web between the first and second legs, and has an upturned free end which constitutes a hook member. The legs of the hooks are supported relative to the curtain by the fabric layer. The straps of the curtain structure have free ends with openings therethrough, and are so sized that the curtain structure can be installed by passing the straps over a suitably mounted rod and slipping the openings in the free ends thereof over the hook members. The hook members are so shaped that, when the curtain is so installed, a second curtain can be installed by slipping openings in the vicinity of its upper edge over the hook members.

Abstract: An environmental curtain for closing a doorway, including elongated, flexible strips having their upper ends formed into loops and a curtain support extending through the loops to suspend the flexible strips within the doorway. The upper end portion of at least one of the flexible strips has a head, a neck which is narrower than the head, and an opening. The head can be inserted through the opening to place the neck within the opening to quickly and easily form the upper end portion of that flexible strip into a loop.

Abstract: An inexpensive shower curtain ensemble is provided consisting of a curtain member and a plurality of flexible strap members. The curtain member is a flexible opaque rectangular sheet comprised of cellulosic paper having a basis weight between 50 and 400 grams per square meter, at least one surface of which being covered by an adherent layer of water-resistant organic polymer material. Adjacent its upper edge, the curtain member contains a uniformly spaced series of holes. The strap members have an elongated configuration terminating in anchor ends provided with contact-type adhesive means capable of rapidly establishing an adhesive bond with either surface of said curtain member.
