Vault shaped miniature trampoline
A miniature trampoline includes a frame having at least a pair of spaced apart upper frame members each having an upper front end and an upper rear end, respectively, the upper frame members being inclined toward the upper rear ends, respectively. A trampoline bed includes at least one planar surface and a pair of elongate side edges situated between the upper frame members and extending substantially between the upper rear ends and upper front ends of the pair of upper frame members, respectively. The trampoline includes a plurality of springs, each spring having a spring fastener coupled to a respective upper frame member and a bed fastener coupled to the trampoline bed proximate a side edge thereof, wherein the springs are spaced apart along the respective upper frame members, respectively, such that the trampoline bed is selectively held in tension between the upper frame members, respectively.
Hurdle
A hurdle has a supporting frame and two crossing rods. The two crossing rod each respectively employing a connecting joint, a spring, an engaging member, and a locking screw engageable with two opposing standing bars. The supporting frame includes the two standing bars and a horizontal aperture.
