Swing
A one-piece bracket 5 is described for coupling an A-frame (7, figure 1) with rectangular section legs to a top bar of a support framework for a swing (1, see figure 1). The bracket 5 is symmetrical about a central plane, and adopts a generally saddle-shaped configuration. A first planar panel 16 extends in a plane perpendicular to the central plane and is adapted to underlie a top bar (6, figure 1) in use. Respective planar side panels 18 are formed along opposite side edges of the first panel 16 at an angle to the first panel 16. Each such side panel 18 has a rear edge 20 along which an end panel 21 is bent at a right-angle out of the plane of the side panel 18. The angles between the side panels 18 and the first panel 16 and between the end panels 21 and the first panel 16 are chosen so that, for each side panel 18, the planes of that side panel 18 and of its respective end panel 21 correspond to orthogonal faces of a leg of the A-frame (7). Also described is a swing of the kind in which a swing member (2) adapted for support of a user is supported by at least one and preferably two or four elongate flexible members (3) selected from cords, ropes and chains to allow the swing member (2) to swing in a back-and-forth manner. The at least one elongate flexible member is(are) supported from a wooden top bar (6). At least one end of the top bar (6) is supported by a wooden A-frame (7) coupled to it by a bracket 5. The or each A-frame includes two legs (8 & 9) each formed from rectangular sectioned timber.
