This device consists primarily of a pair of parallel spaced-apart sides, which are arcuately curved on the bottom, so as to be in rocking-like engagement with a ground, or floor, surface. The device includes, in the upper portion, between the sides, a rotatable member, upon which a person stands and holds onto, for effecting a somersault motion, and the device further includes a transverse member on each end of the sides, so as to enable the person using it, to somersault safely.

A child's motorized swing includes a frame from which a seat is suspended by spaced-apart hangers pivotally connected to the frame so that the seat and its occupant can swing like a pendulum. A battery operated drive unit mounted on the frame adjacent one of the hangers rotates a small crank situated adjacent the hanger. A resilient, lost motion linkage connected between the hanger and the rotating crank applies reinforcing impulses to the hanger which maintain the weighted seat in oscillation a...

A child's swing set of the type which is pumped by both hand and foot action on horizontal bars and includes a "T"-shaped upper support bracket capable of mounting on a horizontal bar for the purpose of providing three-point suspension of the swing set below. A swing set seat and support arrangment includes horizontal set support members which carry the weight and stress of the swing member, and a molded plastic seat for comfort of the swinger, but which does not carry the direct loads of the sw...

A pivotally suspended trolley swing that can be propelled by the rider in both a horizontal direction and the radial direction of a normal swing. The device comprises a rigid frame which supports a trolley track at a selected height above the ground. The trolley, which is mounted for to and fro motion along the track, comprises a carrier near the front and rear ends of which are pivotally attached the upper ends of rigid hanger struts which support the swing. The hanger struts are also pivotally...

A swing employs a hollow U-shaped tubular frame having a top horizontal tube. An elongated vertical tube is pivotally secured at its upper end to the midpoint of the horizontal tube. A seat is secured to the vertical tube, and is free to swing back and forth below an in a vertical plane perpendicular to the horizontal tube. A clip extends horizontally over the horizontal tube at right angles thereto and has a spring at each end extending downwardly and inwardly toward the vertical tube.

A chain-hung seat pendant from the top of a swing frame has a motor supported on the frame at the side of the top so that a crank keyed to its driven shaft rotates toward and away from a crossbar secured at its ends to the support chains near their top ends. A pull chain connected at one end to the outer end of the crank and at the other end to the center of the crossbar pulls the support chains in one direction during a portion of the rotation of the crank, the seat returning in the other direc...

A swing seat for suspension from an overhead support which utilizes at least one arch member to transmit vertical loads to a swing seat suspension element. The swing seat is formed as a continuous walled, generally elongated shell having upper and lower wall sections. The upper wall section has a generally horizontal seating surface. The lower wall section defines at least one longitudinally extending arch member that is positioned between the ends of the lower wall section. A walled aperture lo...

A swing set apparatus, providing that the pendulum-type swinging movement of a swing also provides the power for the revolving movement of a seat assembly on other portions of the apparatus.

A swing switch, which is disposed in a decorative panel having a surface and an opening, includes a switch body, and a panel-side guide. The switch body has an input element, a switch-side guide, and a swing center. The input element is disposed in the opening of the decorative panel. At least part of the switch-side guide is disposed on the rear side of the input element. The swing center is disposed substantially flush with the input element or the surface of the decorative panel. The switch b...

A child swing includes a swing frame, at least one hanger arm rotatably coupled to the swing frame, and a bouncer seat assembly including a bouncer frame and a seat coupled to the bouncer frame. The bouncer seat assembly is adapted to be attached to and detached from the at least one hanger arm. When the bouncer seat assembly is coupled to the at least one hanger arm, the bouncer frame and the seat can undergo swinging movement with the at least one hanger arm relative to the swing frame. When t...
