Trampoline Frame
A trampoline has a frame. A bed is suspended across the frame. The frame includes a horizontally oriented bed frame for suspending the bed. Frame legs are attached to the frame for supporting the frame above a ground surface. An enclosure includes a net suspended from an enclosure frame. Enclosure poles are mounted to the trampoline around a periphery of the bed. The enclosure poles extend upwardly. The enclosure poles are branched at a lower diagonal connection to form a first lower branch and a second lower branch that branch away from each other at a diagonal angle as they extend upwardly. The first lower branch is connected to a first upper branch. The second lower branch is connected to a second upper branch. The first upper branch and the second upper branch toward each other at a diagonal angle as they extend upwardly.
1 . A trampoline comprising:
a. a frame;
b. a bed suspended across the frame, wherein the frame includes a horizontally oriented bed frame for suspending the bed;
c. frame legs attached to the frame for supporting the frame above a ground surface;
d. an enclosure including a net suspended from an enclosure frame; and
e. enclosure poles mounted to the trampoline around a periphery of the bed, wherein the enclosure poles extend upwardly, wherein the enclosure poles are branched at a lower diagonal connection to form a first lower branch and a second lower branch that branch away from each other at a diagonal angle as they extend upwardly, wherein the first lower branch is connected to a first upper branch, and wherein the second lower branch is connected to a second upper branch, wherein the first upper branch and the second upper branch toward each other at a diagonal angle as they extend upwardly.
2 . The trampoline of claim 1 , further comprising: a frame leg connector bridge connecting between frame legs.
3 . The trampoline of claim 1 , further comprising: an upper enclosure loop connected to the enclosure poles at loop connectors, wherein each of the loop connectors connect to the first upper branch and the second upper branch at a loop connector joint, wherein the first upper branch and the second upper branch are angled apart from each other at a diagonal angle, meaning that they are not parallel or perpendicular to each other.
4 . The trampoline of claim 1 , further comprising: a kite shaped middle enclosure opening formed between the first lower branch, the second lower branch, the first upper branch, and the second upper branch.
5 . The trampoline of claim 1 , further comprising: an upper enclosure opening, wherein the upper enclosure opening is defined between an upper enclosure loop, the first upper branch and the second upper branch.
6 . The trampoline of claim 1 , further comprising: a lower enclosure opening, wherein the lower enclosure opening is defined between a first lower branch and a second lower branch.
7 . The trampoline of claim 1 , further comprising: an upper enclosure loop connected to the enclosure poles at loop connectors, wherein each of the loop connectors connect to the first upper branch and the second upper branch at a loop connector joint, wherein the first upper branch and the second upper branch are angled apart from each other at a diagonal angle, meaning that they are not parallel or perpendicular to each other; and further comprising a kite shaped middle enclosure opening formed between the first lower branch, the second lower branch, the first upper branch, and the second upper branch.
8 . The trampoline of claim 1 , further comprising: an upper enclosure opening, wherein the upper enclosure opening is defined between an upper enclosure loop, the first upper branch and the second upper branch; and further comprising a lower enclosure opening, wherein the lower enclosure opening is defined between a first lower branch and a second lower branch.
9 . A trampoline comprising:
a. a frame;
b. a bed suspended across the frame, wherein the frame includes a horizontally oriented bed frame for suspending the bed;
c. frame legs attached to the frame for supporting the frame above a ground surface;
d. an enclosure including a net suspended from an enclosure frame; and
e. enclosure poles mounted to the trampoline around a periphery of the bed, wherein the enclosure poles extend upwardly, wherein the enclosure poles are branched at a lower diagonal connection to form a first lower branch and a second lower branch that branch away from each other at a diagonal angle as they extend upwardly, wherein each enclosure pole is connected to an adjacent enclosure pole at a first diagonal connection joint wherein the first lower branch is connected to a right adjacent enclosure pole to the right of the first lower branch, and wherein the second lower branch is connected at a second diagonal connection joint wherein the second lower branch is connected to a left adjacent enclosure pole to the left of the first lower branch.
10 . The trampoline of claim 9 , further comprising: a frame leg connector bridge connecting between frame legs.
11 . The trampoline of claim 9 , further comprising: an upper enclosure loop connected to the enclosure poles at loop connectors, wherein each of the loop connectors connect to the first upper branch and the second upper branch at a loop connector joint, wherein the first upper branch and the second upper branch are angled apart from each other at a diagonal angle, meaning that they are not parallel or perpendicular to each other.
12 . The trampoline of claim 9 , further comprising: a kite shaped middle enclosure opening formed between the first lower branch, the second lower branch, the first upper branch, and the second upper branch.
13 . The trampoline of claim 12 , further comprising: an upper enclosure opening, wherein the upper enclosure opening is defined between an upper enclosure loop, the first upper branch and the second upper branch.
