ABSTRACT:
The disclosure pertains to an articulated playground bridge including a frame, and a deck having opposite sides and opposite ends. The deck is attached at its opposite ends to the frame such that the deck is suspended above the ground by the frame with the deck sagging downwardly between its opposite ends. The deck is made up of a plurality of generally rectangular planks having longitudinally edges extending in side-to-side direction with respect to the deck. Adjacent planks are in generally edge-to-edge relationship, and pivotally interconnected by a hinge pin extending generally along the longitudinal edges of the adjacent planks. Thus, the planks will pivot upwardly and downwardly in an undulating fashion with respect to each other when the bridge is crossed.
