Abstract: Embodiments of a playground device that includes a net lattice are disclosed. The net lattice is attached either directly or indirectly to the playground device. First and second segments of a net rope are part of the net lattice and include a woven outer net rope layer that surrounds a woven inner net rope layer. A net clamp is also part of the net lattice. The first and second segments of the net rope run substantially parallel to one another through the net clamp. The net clamp secures the first segment of net rope to the second segment of net rope at the point at which they run substantially parallel to one another.

Abstract: Embodiments of an interactive play system are provided. In one such embodiment, an interactive play system includes a satellite having a sensor. The satellite is integrated within a component included within a playground environment. A feedback mechanism is also provided within the playground environment. A computing device supports a selective change between a first programming state in which the feedback mechanism will respond to an actuation of the sensor based on a computer instruction provided by a system administrator and a second programming state in which the feedback mechanism will respond to an actuation of the sensor based on a computer instruction provided by someone other than a system administrator.

Abstract: An extension mechanism for a zip track system within a playground environment is provided. The extension system comprises a crossover unit configured to attach to a zip track. The crossover unit comprises a crossover arch, configured to couple to the zip track. The crossover unit also comprises a support pole configured to couple to an end of the crossover arch, such that the support pole does not obstruct a path of movement under the zip track. The extension mechanism also comprises a connection mechanism configured to connect the crossover unit to the zip track system such that the crossover unit distributes the weight of the track through the crossover arch and the crossover support poles.

Abstract: A piece of playground equipment is disclosed and includes a system for tensioning one or more cables. The system includes a cable retaining device having a cylindrical shaped body with threads disposed around an outer circumferential surface, the outer circumferential surface being interrupted in at least one location by one or more cable receiving channel. The system also includes a tightening sleeve into which the cable retaining device is configured to be threaded such that the cable retaining device moves as the tightening sleeve is rotated.

Abstract: A metallophone structure configured for permanent installation in an outdoor environment is provided. The metallophone structure comprises a mounting structure. The metallophone structure also comprises a set of tone producing devices each coupled to the mounting structure by a fastener, wherein each tone producing device is configured to, when actuated, produce a sound frequency. The tone producing device is coupled in a location, by the fastener, as to reduce the effect on the quality of sound produced. The metallophone structure also comprises a mallet cradle configured to receive a mallet. The mallet is configured to actuate one of the tone producing devices. The metallophone structure is configured to be weather resistant such that each tone producing device still produces the sound frequency after an outdoor exposure period.

Abstract: A system for spreading tension at a rope connection point on a structure is provided. The system comprises a connection mechanism configured to receive a rope. The system also comprises a fastening mechanism configured to couple the connection mechanism to the structure at the rope connection point. The rope is configured to enter the connection mechanism at an inlet point and exit the connection mechanism at an outlet point, such that a tension applied to the rope is spread between the inlet point and the outlet point.
