Lateral Motion Freestanding Hammock

Abstract

A lateral motion freestanding hammock has a base frame assembly for standing on a floor, and the base frame assembly further comprises a first end structure, at a first end, a second end structure at a second end, and a first middle bar connecting the first end structure to the second end structure. A net supported by the base frame assembly has a first rocker formed as a curved structure and has a contact surface for a floor. The curved structure has a curvature in a lateral direction for rocking in a lateral direction. The first end structure comprises a first upright at the first end. A second rocker is formed as a curved structure and has a contact surface for a floor. The curved structure has a curvature in a lateral direction for rocking in a lateral direction.

1 . A lateral motion freestanding hammock, comprising:
 a. a base frame assembly for standing on a floor, wherein the base frame assembly further comprises:

 ii. a second end structure at a second end, and 
 iii. a first middle bar connecting the first end structure to the second end structure; 
   b. a net supported by the base frame assembly, wherein the net has a lateral dimension and a lengthwise dimension greater than the lateral dimension;   c. a first rocker formed as a curved structure and having a contact surface for a floor, wherein the curved structure has a curvature in a lateral direction for rocking in a lateral direction, wherein the first end structure comprises a first upright at the first end, wherein the first middle bar is above the first rocker and below the net;   d. a second rocker formed as a curved structure and having a contact surface for a floor, wherein the curved structure has a curvature in a lateral direction for rocking in a lateral direction, wherein the second end structure comprises a second upright at the first end;   e. a first net holder horizontally fixed above the first rocker, for receiving a first side of a net along the lateral dimension of the net, wherein the first net holder is generally parallel to the first rocker; and   f. a second net holder horizontally fixed above the second rocker, for receiving a second side of a net along the lateral dimension of the net, wherein the second net holder is generally parallel to the second rocker.   
     
     
         2 . The lateral motion freestanding hammock, of  claim 1  further comprising: an adjustment means. 
     
     
         3 . The lateral motion freestanding hammock, of  claim 1  further comprising: a second set of upright members comprising an auxiliary first upright, and an auxiliary second upright, wherein the auxiliary first upright rigidly connects between the first rocker and the first net holder, and wherein the second upright rigidly connects between the second rocker and the second net holder. 
     
     
         4 . The lateral motion freestanding hammock, of  claim 1  further comprising: a second middle bar connecting the first end structure to the second end structure. 
     
     
         5 . The lateral motion freestanding hammock, of  claim 1  wherein the net further comprises a first sleeve and a second sleeve, wherein the first sleeve fits over the first net holder, and wherein the second sleeve fits over the second net holder. 
     
     
         6 . The lateral motion freestanding hammock, of  claim 1  further comprising: an adjustment means; and a second set of upright members comprising an auxiliary first upright, and an auxiliary second upright, wherein the auxiliary first upright rigidly connects between the first rocker and the first net holder, and wherein the second upright rigidly connects between the second rocker and the second net holder. 
     
     
         7 . The lateral motion freestanding hammock, of  claim 1  further comprising: an adjustment means; and a second middle bar connecting the first end structure to the second end structure. 
     
     
         8 . The lateral motion freestanding hammock, of  claim 1  further comprising: an adjustment means; and wherein the net further comprises a first sleeve and a second sleeve, wherein the first sleeve fits over the first net holder, and wherein the second sleeve fits over the second net holder. 
     
     
         9 . The lateral motion freestanding hammock, of  claim 1  further comprising: a second middle bar connecting the first end structure to the second end structure, wherein the net further comprises a first sleeve and a second sleeve, wherein the first sleeve fits over the first net holder, and wherein the second sleeve fits over the second net holder. 
     
     
         10 . The lateral motion freestanding hammock, of  claim 1  further comprising: a second set of upright members comprising an auxiliary first upright, and an auxiliary second upright, wherein the auxiliary first upright rigidly connects between the first rocker and the first net holder, and wherein the second upright rigidly connects between the second rocker and the second net holder; and a second middle bar connecting the first end structure to the second end structure. 
     
     
         11 . The lateral motion freestanding hammock, of  claim 1  further comprising: a second set of upright members comprising an auxiliary first upright, and an auxiliary second upright, wherein the auxiliary first upright rigidly connects between the first rocker and the first net holder, and wherein the second upright rigidly connects between the second rocker and the second net holder, wherein the net further comprises a first sleeve and a second sleeve, wherein the first sleeve fits over the first net holder, and wherein the second sleeve fits over the second net holder.
