- FIGS. 1-5 a pool with twirling seesaw embodying the present invention is illustrated therein with a pool or container member generally designated by the numeral 10 which is formed from an integral sheet of synthetic plastic material and a seesaw assembly supported thereon and generally designated by the numeral 12.
- the pool member 10 has a bottom wall 14 of generally planar configuration and an upstanding post portion 16 of generally frustoconical configuration adjacent the center there of formed from the material of the bottom wall 14 so as to define an open cavity extending inwardly from the bottom surface.
- Extending upwardly and outwardly from the periphery of the bottom wall 14 is a sidewall 18 terminating in a peripheral flange 20 of inverted generally U-shaped cross section.
- the sidewall 18 is of generally circular cross section as defined by the generally circular bottom wall 14 in the illustrated embodiment, but it is comprised of a multiplicity of relatively shallow scallop or convexly arcuate portions 22 about its periphery and lying in a plane perpendicular to the bottom wall 14 so that the overall circular sidewall is in fact defined by a series of smaller radius arcs.
- the several scallop portions 22 individually slope upwardly and outwardly from the bottom wall 14 and converge in inwardly projecting ribs 24 which extend upwardly from adjacent the bottom wall 14 to adjacent the flange 20 to provide rigidity and enhance the strength of the sidewall 18.
- the sidewall 18 is also provided with a series of shallow arcuate ribs 26 extending between adjacent vertical ribs 24 generally parallel to the bottom wall 14 and opening generally upwardly.
- FIGS. 6-8 includes a mounting member 30 of a generally frustoconical configuration which fits about and snugly seats upon the post 16 of the pool member 10.
- the post and mounting members are provided with cooperating, generally axially extending ribs 32, 34 which are formed so as to extend alternately inwardly and outwardly.
- outwardly projecting ribs 32 on the post will extend into and seat in channels formed on the inner surface of the mounting member 30 and defined by outwardly projecting ribs 34, and inwardly projecting ribs 34 on the mounting member 30 will extend into and seat in the channels fonned on the outer surface of the post 16 and defined by inwardly projecting ribs 32.
- This arrangement prevents relative rotation between the post 16 and mounting member 30 and greatly enhances the rigidity and strength of the assembly.
- pivot bracket member gener ally designated by the numeral 38 and generally of U- shaped configuration to provide a pair of upstanding legs 40 and a connecting web or base 42.
- bracket member 38 is secured to the top wall 36 by a rivet or similar fastener 44, and washers 46 are provided on both surfaces of the top wall 36 to facilitate relative rotation, minimize abrasion and enhance the strength of the assembly.
- an elongated tubular or seesaw member 56 Mounted for pivotal movement between the leg portions 4Q by the rivet or similar fastener it; is an elongated tubular or seesaw member 56 of generally circular cross section except at its ends where the upper portion is flattened as best seen in FIG. 8.
- a block 52 of resiliently deformable synthetic plastic foam is inserted between the legs 40 to fill the space between the web 52 and the tubular member 50, thus preventing the insertion of a finger thereinto and possible injury.
- the block 52 is held in position by a rivet or similar fastener 54.
- the seat members 56 are molded to provide a pair of depending parallel walls 62 defining a channel therebetween in which is snugly received the flattened end portion of the tubular member 50, and a depending end wall 64 extends between the parallel walls 62 at the outer end thereof to provide an end abutment for the tubular member 5!
- the seat members 56 are secured onto the tubular member 50 by a pair of rivets or similar members 66.
- a handle or grip member 68 of elongate configuration with reversely bent end portions 70 has its body portion spaced upwardly from and extending parallel to the tubular member 50. It is mounted adjacent the central portion of the tubular member 50 by means of rivets or similar members 72 extending through the flattened free ends 74 which are slightly arcuate in cross section to conform to the contour of the tubular member 5!
- the cross section of the pool member may assume a variety of configurations including circular, figure 8, trilobal or rectangular, the preferred structures are generally circular in configuration so as to provide substantially equal spacing outwardly of the elongated seesaw member as it rotates therewithin.
- the generally circular configuration (or any of the other selected configurations) preferably employs generally vertically extending ribs at suitable intervals thereabout in order to enhance the rigidity of the sidewall.
- these vertically extending ribs are provided by relatively short scallops or arcs of lesser radius than the radius of the overall pool so that riblike portions are formed at the intersections thereof.
- the ribs may continue into the bottom wall to provide maximum rigidity.
- the depth of the sidewall drawn from the sheet material and factors of economy will generally dictate the use of a radius at the point of intersection between the sidewall and the bottom wall in which case the ribs will blend into the radius and terminate adjacent to but at a slight distance therefrom.
- the rigidity of the sidewall may be further enhanced by ribs or corrugations extending transversely between the vertically extending ribs.
- ribs or corrugations extending transversely between the vertically extending ribs.
- the wavelike scallops in each of the larger arcuate segments define a corrugation or rib therebetween.
- various other structures may be employed to achieve a comparable result.
- the flange extending about the periphery of the pool member is particularly important in providing strength to the sidewall portion. It acts in the fashion of a hoop or other encircling band and its preferred U-shaped construction imparts substantial rigidity to the upper portion of the pool member sidewall. It will be appreciated that the actual configuration of the flange may vary and that it, too, may include stiffening corrugations or ribs extending along its length.
- the bottom wall is desirably formed with a slip resistant surface. This can be done by treating the inner surface thereof to make it relatively rough or it can be formed with stiffening deformations such as corrugations or ribs therein, such as may be fon'ned by use of a mesh structure in the appropriate portion of the forming mold.
- thermoplastic materials may be used to form the pool member, it. is most desirably and conveniently formed by pressure and heat from synthetic plastic sheet material in a conventional thermoforming operation. This may include various kinds of mechanical assistance in addition to air or other fluid pressure to effect the displacement of the sheet material.
- thermoplastic resins which may be employed are polyethylene, polypropylene, nylon, impact polystyrene, ABS (a graft blend of styrene/acrylonitrile copolymer upon a butadiene rubber substrate), and various olefin copolymers.
- the configuration of the post and mounting members may vary to include rectangular, oval and other cross sections.
- the preferred cross section is circular to facilitate molding thereof and the preferred overall configuration is frustoconical as in the illustrated embodiment. It should be appreciated that the actual cross section may deviate from a true circle due to the presence of ribs as hereinafter described.
- these elements are desirably provided with generally vertically extending ribs or corrugations as in the illustrated embodiment.
- ribs or corrugations By alternating the direction of the ribs or corrugations on the two members, ribs on one will fit into channels on the other in an alternating pattern, thus increasing the relative rigidity and providing a high degree of resistance to relative rotation.
- the length of the ribs and corrugations along the post and mounting member may vary but is desirably substantially the entire height thereof.
- the pivot support may assume a variety of configurations and may be fabricated from a plurality of parts, preferably it incorporates a basic U-shaped element or yoke providing a pair of upstanding legs through which the elongated seesaw member extends.
- the pivot pin for the seesaw member may be seated in suitable apertures formed in the upstanding legs as in the illustrated embodiment, and that pivot pin may be a rivet, or a disengageable fastener of the nut and bolt type, or any other suitable member.
- the mounting means for the pivot support upon the support member and will include a depending portion which may or may not be integral with the body of the pivot support. Most conveniently, it is provided by a separate fastener extending through the web of the U-shaped pivot support and washers or other suitable bearing surfaces are disposed on the opposite surfaces of the top wall of the mounting member.
- the elongated seesaw member has been shown mounted in a fixed position. If so desired, the elongated seesaw member may have several holes spaced along its length and the pivot member may be removeable so as to permit variation in the length of the seesaw member projecting on the opposite side in the conventional fashion to accommodate children of different weight.
- the elongated seesaw member is conveniently tubular in construction for greater strength and economy. It may be fabricated from synthetic plastics although generally metallic members are highly satisfactory for this purpose in providing the necessary strength commensurate with acceptable costs.
- a separate handle or gripping means disposed above the plane of the seesaw member.
- a single tubular member can be provided with a complex configuration so as to provide gripping means adjacent both seats.
- a tubular metal member is bent so as to provide end portions which are secured to the elongated seesaw member.
- the handle member may be of synthetic plastic or of metallic construction; generally metal tubing is preferred from the standpoints of cost, weight and strength.
- the pool member will be filled with either sand or water under normal conditions and that the weight of the medium introduced thereinto will hold the pool member firmly against the ground.
- the weight of the medium introduced thereinto will hold the pool member firmly against the ground.
- the relatively large dimension of the bottom wall and the concentration of weight through the post into the ground will impart stability to the assembly even in the absence of sand or water in the pool member.
- the seesaw subassembly may be removed from the post at any time to permit utilization of the pool member per se with totally unencumbered playing area. Whenever the children so desire, the seesaw subassembly may then be placed upon the post to permit twirling or seesaw action. The children will be able to splash into water within the pool member, spraying themselves and each other with water as a part of the play action so desired.
- the pool assembly of the present invention is novel and provides highly desirable play action including not only a pool or sandbox type of activity but also a seesaw.
- the pool assembly may also include a twirling action and the seesaw subassembly may be readily removed when so desired.
- the structure may be fabricated readily and relatively economically and permits vw'de variations in size and appearance.
