tion, reference being had therein to the accompanying drawing.
This invention relates to an amusement apparatus and 'has for its object the production of an apparatus which consists in a combination circular seesaw, giant stride, trapeze and swing.
The principal object of this invention is the production of a simple and :efiicient' standard which so supports the main supporting board as to allow the diiferent PGf-g tions of the apparatus to be efficiently .at; tached thereto.
Another object of this invention is the production of an eflic-ient means for securing so as to allow the same to swing in the usual manner as a seesaw.
With these and other objects in view, this invention consists of certain novel constructions, combinations, and arrangements of parts, as will be hereinafter fully described and claimed.
' In the drawings z-Fig-ure 1 is .a side view of the device showing the same supported upon'the primary supporting standard. Fig. 2 is :a side elevation of the device showing the supportingboardlused as a seesaw upon the auxiliary supporting frame. Fig. 3 is a top plan View of the device as illustrated in Fig. 2. :Fig. 4 is a transverse section taken on line 4-4 of Fig. 2. Fig. 5 is a transverse section taken --on line 5-5 of members 2. Latcrally extending V-shaped brace members 3 are secured :near the cor- "ners' of the primary standard, and the vertical members -1 of the standard are also braced :by means oi auxiliary braces 4i and 5. Cross braces =6 arealsoempiloyed bracing 3 the standard and constituting :an eiiicient' support therefor. The-upper ends of the i to the standard side members 1 of the standard are'c onnected by means of transversely extending brace members 8, as illustratedin Fig. 1.
'When it is desired that the device be used as a trapeze or swing or giant stride,the auxiliary frame 9 is placed upon the primary frame as indicated in Fig. 1; This auxiliary frame comprises apair of corner standards 10 which are braced by means of transversely extending connecting members 11, which transversely extending connecting members 11 engage the sides of the upper end of the primary standard as indicated in 1, so as to have its overhanging ends fit over the transversely extending members 8 of the primary standard. In this manner it will :be seen that the aux .iliary standard-will be firmly held upon the primary standard and that the same will be placed upon the primary standard by sliding the same over'the upper end of the prirmarystandard. The lower ends of the cornersst'andands 10 are braced as at 12 to fit over the tipperend, as illustrated in Fig, 1,
' .ef the primarystandard. These braces will,
therefiorefconstitute an. eilicient lock for bracing the auxiliary standard upon the wimarystandard. The vertically extendng members 10 of the auxiliary standard are braced by means of cross braces 13, and these vertically extending members 10 support the top plate 1 1-;
A hearing plate 15 is secured to the up per face of the .top plate 14, and this hearing plate is provided with receiving the ball bearing 17. A hinge plate 18 is ,pivota'lly secured to the top plate 14, and is held above the bearing plate 15, by
a race 16 for ineans'of a journal bolt 19; which bolt passes 1 through. the hinge (plate 18, and is securely held in engagement with the top plate 14 by meansof a nut-20. Thehi'nge plate 18 is provided with a pair of pintle receiving earsQlQwhich are spaced from the side edges thereof, and are spaced from each other so as to allow the head of the bolt 19 to fit tharcbetween. An auxiliary hinge tplateQQ is carried by the under face of the see-saw board 23, and this plate .is provided near each end with a ,pintle receiving ear PA tor receiving the pintle :pin 25. This toilette pin is held in the ears 2lsnd at, by
means G $116 to al low the board, as the sam operatecl so as a pair of parallel members conne ted at their upper ends, by means of 5 tr. erse bar 2t. lhe lower ends of t members "28 are notched rooted at 30, for firmly grip pinuaround the side edges of the see-saw l. oard 23. 3 binding belt; 331 is secured to the lower ends of the parallel members 28, and i'irmly hold the notches 30 around the edges of the see-saw board 23. t will,
tlmretore. be seen that the handles 2! may be ad ustaol'" secured at an 5 'ed position alone the see-saw board, asindicated at Figs. 1 and 2. From the foregoing description, it will be seen that the handles 53'? may be adjusted upon different places alongthe see-saw board so as to allow different Weight persons to balance the board when so desired. By having the handles adjusted in this manner, it will be seen that the handles may be moved to a convenient place for the occupant of one end of the board to hold securely thereto, as for instance, Where a heavy person is seated upon the board to one side 0.. 1. 1e center thereof, the handle 2'? may be moved up near the center of the board so as to allow the heavy person to be seated near the center thereof, and When a lighter person 15 seated-upon the opposite end of theboard the h end Wlll be moved out audio 2? upon this toward the end so as the light person. to be seated upon the extreme end of the boardto balance the heavy person who is moved a relative distance toward the center of the board to re cure the desired balance. Bumper members 32 are carried by the under face of the auxiliary hinge plate to take up the jar of e swings While being used as a see-saw.
l" s are secured to the respective ends board 23, and to these eyes may be secured the trapeze 54, or the usual swing 35. The giant stride upon the suspending rod 38, Wl'llCll chain is of the see-saw 37, from the chain. supported upon some of the eyes carried by the under face of the see-saw board.
From the foregoing description, it ill be seen. that fivery etiicient and durable device has been produced which justed to accommodate different apparatuses and which may be to rotate when so so as to swing in the caseiwitha seesaw.
It, of course, should be understood that the see-s'aw'ma be used when the auxiliary standard is removed from the primary especially amusement effectively desired or usual manner as is the standard when it. is so desired, Where. the see-saw board is being used by smallcluldren. When it is-desired to swing device from the board. the same effect of the swinging is suspended aw board 9-3, and these i131): l l.
l l l may be ad-' cured thereto,
rceegrie mard may be produced by placing the sum i iary standard. upon the primary stun-(lardv so as to raise the seesaw board to great height and allow the amusement device to be hung or swung therefrom.
l'Vhat is claimed is l. in amusement apparatus of the class described comprising a, primary standard and an auxiliary standard, said auxiliary standard det'achably secured to said primary standard, a top plate carried by said auxiliary standard a bearing plate carried by said auxiliary standard, ball bearings carried thereby, a hinge plat-e pivotally secured to said top plate and bearing plate, piutle receiving ears carried by the center of said hinge plate and spaced from the side edges there of, an auxiliary hinge'plate provided With pintle receiving ears registering with the pintle receiving ears of said primary plate, a see-saw board carried by said auxiliary hinge plate, and means passing through said pintle receiving ears for pivotally securing said hinge plates together, whereby said see-saw board may beswung upward and downward.
