Foam pit assembly

Abstract

A foam pit assembly includes a platform defining a foam pit opening and plurality of platform trampoline openings adjacent thereto. A plurality of platform trampolines extends across the platform trampoline openings. A framework assembly carries the platform and surrounds the foam pit opening defining a lower level thereof below the platform and above an underlying surface. First and second foam pit trampolines connect to the framework assembly and extend across the lower level of the foam pit opening. A wire rope run connects to the framework assembly and extends across the lower level of the foam pit opening, the wire rope run extending between, and connecting to, adjacent edges of the first and second foam pit trampolines.

         2 . The foam pit assembly of  claim 1 , further comprising a plurality of pads surrounding a periphery of the foam pit opening on the platform. 
     
     
         3 . The foam pit assembly of  claim 1 , wherein the platform further defines a first platform trampoline opening adjacent to the foam pit opening, and the foam pit assembly further comprises a first platform trampoline extending across the first platform trampoline opening. 
     
     
         4 . The foam pit assembly of  claim 3 , wherein the platform further defines a second platform trampoline opening adjacent to the foam pit opening and the first platform trampoline opening, and the foam pit assembly further comprises a second platform trampoline extending across the first platform trampoline opening. 
     
     
         5 . The foam pit assembly of  claim 3 , further comprising a plurality of pads surrounding a periphery of the foam pit opening and the first platform trampoline opening on the platform. 
     
     
         6 . The foam pit assembly of  claim 1 , further comprising a second foam pit trampoline connected to the framework assembly and extending across the lower level of the foam pit opening adjacent to the first foam pit trampoline. 
     
     
         7 . The foam pit assembly of  claim 6 , further comprising a wire rope run extending across the lower level of the foam pit opening between adjacent edges of the first and second foam pit trampolines, the adjacent edges of the first and second foam pit trampolines being connected to the wire rope run. 
     
     
         8 . The foam pit assembly of  claim 7 , wherein the wire rope run includes double runs. 
     
     
         9 . The foam pit assembly of  claim 8 , wherein the adjacent edges of the first and second foam pit trampolines are each connected to a respective one of the double runs closest thereto. 
     
     
         10 . The foam pit assembly of  claim 7 , wherein opposite ends of the wire rope run are connected to the framework assembly. 
     
     
         11 . The foam pit assembly of  claim 7 , further comprising a plurality of pads surrounding a periphery of the foam pit opening on the platform and also the wire rope run under the plurality of foam blocks. 
     
     
         12 . The foam pit assembly of  claim 1 , wherein each of the plurality of foam blocks includes a foam block core covered by a sheath. 
     
     
         13 . The foam pit assembly of  claim 1 , further comprising a first staircase extending between the platform and the underlying surface. 
     
     
         14 . The foam pit assembly of  claim 13 , further comprising a second staircase extending between the platform and the underlying surface, the second staircase extending to an opposite side of the platform than the first staircase. 
     
     
         15 . A foam pit assembly comprising:
 a platform defining a foam pit opening and plurality of platform trampoline openings adjacent thereto;   a plurality of platform trampolines extending across the platform trampoline openings;   a framework assembly carrying the platform and surrounding the foam pit opening defining a lower level thereof below the platform and above an underlying surface;   a first and second foam pit trampolines connected to the framework assembly and extending across the lower level of the foam pit opening; and   a wire rope run connected to the framework assembly and extending across the lower level of the foam pit opening, the wire rope run extending between, and connecting to, adjacent edges of the first and second foam pit trampolines.   
     
     
         16 . The foam pit assembly of  claim 15 , further comprising a plurality of pads surrounding a periphery of the foam pit opening and the first platform trampoline opening on the platform and also the wire rope run at the lower level of the foam pit opening. 
     
     
         17 . The foam pit assembly of  claim 15 , wherein the wire rope run includes double runs and the adjacent edges of the first and second foam pit trampolines are each connected to a respective one of the double runs closest thereto. 
     
     
         18 . The foam pit assembly of  claim 15 , wherein the plurality of platform trampoline openings are all adjacent a first side of the foam pit opening. 
     
     
         19 . The foam pit assembly of  claim 18 , further comprising:
 a first staircase leading to the platform along the first side of the foam pit opening; and   a second staircase leading from the platform along a second side of the foam pit opening opposite the first side.
