- the cylindrical bar 48 which is preferably metal, is threaded through the aligned grooves 53 and the transverse channel 61, to secure the interlocking engagement.
- Figure 6 shows said bar 48 in final position when the upper and middle sections 21, 23 are interconnected.
- the diameter of the bar 48 is such as to closely conform with that of the grooves 53 and channel 61 so that it can slide easily within, but is close-fitting such that it will not easily be freed without user effort.

- interlocking means at the join between the sections 21, 23, 25 ensures even greater stability; the keystone wedge shape minimises the downwards forces imposed on the interlocking sections during use, which may otherwise weaken the interlocking means over time. In the event of any part failing, the keystone wedge shape of the middle section 23 will ultimately prevent failure.
- the interlocking means also prevents unwanted lateral movement, with the plural fingers preventing a possible hinge point.
Abstract
Description
- This invention relates to a slide assembly, particularly one formed of multiple parts for assembly at the point of use.
- A slide is a well-known playground or garden fixture comprising of a metal, wooden or plastic inclined member with a smooth upper surface so that a user can slide down the surface. The surface may be straight or curved or wavy, and may be supported at its upper end by a fixture such as a ladder, climbing frame or playhouse.
- In some countries, a slide is known as a playground chute, sliding pond or pon.
- Due to the relatively large size and shape of a slide, it is difficult to transport and will occupy a large amount of space in a van or truck, which is inefficient. Although modular slides, i.e. slides that are provided in sections for assembly at their point of use, are known, because of the safety aspect which requires that the slide will not fail when used, these known slides tend to rely on complex connection mechanisms, which may ultimately fail over time, and may require expert assembly at the point of use.
- It is an aim to provide an improved slide assembly.
- A first aspect of the invention provides a slide assembly, comprising: first, second and third sections which detachably connect together, each section having an upper and lower surface and side walls, the third section being arranged to locate between the first and second sections by means of first and second end walls, which are generally transverse to the side walls and have an external surface the majority of which has a profile which extends inwardly from the upper surface to the lower surface to provide generally an overall wedge shape when the third section is viewed side-on, an end wall of each of the first and second sections being formed with a correspondingly-shaped surface so that, in use, the end walls of the third section abut said end walls of the first and second sections such that the third section can be supported above ground between the first and second sections without the need for its own ground support.
- The supporting of the third section between the first and second sections is in the manner of a 'keystone' by virtue of its shape and the corresponding shape of the walls it abuts at each end. This means that the slide can be broken down into at least three sections, providing a transportable product that can be compact, and when assembled the third section has strong support without the need for its own ground support. If additional engagement portions are provided between adjacent sections, the wedge shape minimises, or at least reduces, the downwards forces imposed on said portions to improve lifespan of the product.
- The end walls of the third section may have a flat, inwardly tapering profile. These may be identical at both ends.
- The inwardly tapering profiles of the end walls may be angled so that they have a converging angle of between 15 and 20 degrees, e.g. 18 degrees, substantially.
- The first and second sections may be arranged to be in fixed relation to an underlying surface, e.g. the ground.
- When assembled, the first section may be the upper section, the third section the middle section and the second section the lower section, and the upper end wall of the first section may further comprise means for attachment to a ladder, climbing frame or playhouse structure.
- The second section may further comprise means for anchoring it to an underlying surface, e.g. the ground.
- The abutting end walls may further be arranged with interlocking means, e.g. beneath the upper surface, to provide additional support.
- The interlocking means may comprise, on one of the abutting end walls, a plurality of fingers extending from, or from the region of, said end wall, each arranged to locate within a corresponding groove or channel provided in, or in the region of, the other end wall with which it is to abut.
- The plurality of fingers on, or in the region of, each said end wall may each comprise a transverse groove or channel at a predetermined distance along the finger configured in use to receive a bar which extends through said transverse grooves or channels.
- Said other wall may comprise a transverse channel through which the bar passes.
- A second aspect of the invention provides a slide assembly, comprising: an upper section, a middle section and a lower section, each having an upper sliding surface, a lower surface and lateral side walls, the middle section having end walls for abutting a respective end wall of the upper section and the lower section, said end walls of the middle section having an inwardly-converging profile from the upper surface to the lower surface to provide an overall generally wedge-shaped profile when viewed side-on, said end wall profiles corresponding with the abutting surface of the upper and lower sections so that the middle section can be supported between the upper and lower sections without the need for its own ground support, the middle section further comprising means to interlock at or in the region of each end wall with the other sections by means of a transverse bar that extends through a groove or channel underneath the upper sliding surface.
- The invention will now be described, by way of non-limiting example, with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which:
-
Figure 1 is a partial schematic view of a slide assembly, comprising upper, lower and a middle sections, in accordance with the invention; -
Figure 2 is a perspective view of a first embodiment slide assembly according to the invention, when assembled; -
Figure 3 is a side view of theFigure 2 slide assembly; -
Figure 4 is an exploded perspective view of theFigure 2 slide assembly; -
Figure 5 is a close-up, underside view of engagement portions between the upper and middle sections of theFigure 2 slide assembly, prior to assembly; -
Figure 6 is a close-up, underside view of theFigure 5 engagement portions, when assembled; and -
Figure 7 is a cross-sectional view of the engagement portions between the lower and middle sections, when assembled. - The preferred embodiment disclosed herein provides a slide assembly suitable for use in a garden or playground. The assembly can be provided in disassembled form, making it easily and efficiently transportable from factory/distributor to place of use, where it can be safely and easily assembled. The slide assembly comprises three separate slide sections, namely an upper, lower and middle section, which means that the sections can be compactly stored and transported, e.g. in nested form.
- The middle section is generally wedge-shaped (when viewed in cross-section or from the side) and supported when assembled by the adjacent sections in the manner of a bridge or arch 'key stone' so that it requires no ground support of its own and is sturdy and stable when assembled between the two fixed outer sections.
- Referring to
Figure 1 , which is useful for understanding the general principle, there is shown in cross-section part of anupper section 1, part of a lower section 3 and amiddle section 5 in assembled form. Eachsection surface 7, a lower surface 9 and generallytransverse end walls upper surface 7 to prevent a user from falling sideways from the slide. - It will be seen that the
end walls middle section 5 taper inwardly from the upper tolower surfaces 5, 9, i.e. they converge towards a distant point, indicated by dotted lines with a convergence angle α. - The overall side profile of the
middle section 5 is therefore that of a wedge. Theabutting surfaces upper sections 1, 3 are correspondingly shaped. Provided the lower andupper sections 1, 3 are mounted in fixed relation to the ground, then themiddle section 5 will remain supported as shown without the need for its own ground support. The stability is improved by virtue of the fact that the majority of the end wall surfaces are tapered in this way, making the assembly strong and less likely to fail. The end wall surfaces are substantially planar and have the same, but oppositely oriented, taper. - Referring now to
Figure 2 , a first embodiment slide assembly 20 (hereafter "slide") is shown in assembled form. Theslide 20 employs theFigure 1 keystone principle, employing in this case a convergence angle α of approximately 18 degrees. Theslide 20 comprises anupper section 21, amiddle section 23 and alower section 25. The upper sliding surface is indicated generally byreference numeral 26, and the upstanding lateral walls byreference numeral 27. - Each
section lower sections arrows upper section 21, this may be by means of a ladder or attachment to a playhouse or climbing frame, for example. In the case of thelower section 25, this may be any suitable anchoring means, e.g. posts or spikes that embed into the ground. -
Figure 3 shows theFigure 2 embodiment in side view, where the convergingend walls middle section 23 abutadjacent walls lower sections Figure 1 . Theseparate sections - In theory, provided the upper and
lower sections middle section 23 will support the weight of users. However, for further safety, the embodiment also provides interlocking connecting means, to be described below. -
Figure 3 also provides typical dimensions, which may of course vary. The width of theFigure 3 slide is 570 mm. - Referring to
Figure 4 , the upper, middle andlower sections fingers lower sections channels middle section 23, specifically within part of the taperingend walls middle section 23 and channels on the upper andlower sections -
Figure 5 shows the interlocking means in more detail, specifically from the underside between theupper section 21 and themiddle section 23. - The
upper section 21 has on its underside a central, reinforcedportion 50; on either side of this portion extend a pair of fingers 51 (hereafter "overhanging fingers") with part-cylindrical grooves 53 transverse along axis X-X. A pair of further fingers 55 (hereafter "underhanging fingers") extend in the same direction, nearer to the side walls. - The
middle section 23 has on its underside a central, reinforcedportion 56; on either side of this portion are provided a pair of grooves or recesses 59 shaped and dimensioned so as to receive the overhangingfingers 51 in a close-fitting manner. A transverse cylindrical channel 61 extends through the reinforcedportion 56 and is aligned with thegrooves 53 which locate either side of said portion when the twosections underhanging fingers 55 in a close-fitting manner, when thesections - As indicated in
Figure 5 , thecylindrical bar 48, which is preferably metal, is threaded through the alignedgrooves 53 and the transverse channel 61, to secure the interlocking engagement.Figure 6 shows saidbar 48 in final position when the upper andmiddle sections bar 48 is such as to closely conform with that of thegrooves 53 and channel 61 so that it can slide easily within, but is close-fitting such that it will not easily be freed without user effort. - The same or a similar interlocking means 42, 46 is/are provided between the lower and
middle sections - As shown in
Figure 7 , which indicates the engagement between the lower andmiddle sections fingers 51 may be shaped on their upper sides (not-visible inFigure 5 , which is from the underside) with protrusions 70 (or recesses) which mate with correspondingly shaped recesses (or protrusions) on the lower surface of the grooves/recesses 59 into which they locate. The same may also apply to theouter fingers 55. The fingers will therefore act as clips. - End caps (not shown) may locate over the ends of each
bar 48. Screws 65 (seeFigure 6 ) may be used to secure thebar 48 in position within thechannel 53. - The provision of the above-described interlocking means at the join between the
sections middle section 23 will ultimately prevent failure. The interlocking means also prevents unwanted lateral movement, with the plural fingers preventing a possible hinge point. - Manufacture is straightforward, particularly in the case of plastics materials, in that moulding can provide the
sections middle section 23. - The above-described embodiment is particularly suited to play slides for use in gardens or playgrounds. The principles and advantages described herein can also be applied to other forms of slide or chute, however.
