ABSTRACT:
Structures including a platform and a slide located adjacent to the platform which are primarily useful for play purposes can be constructed so as to fold into an essentially small, flat configuration for storage and shipment purposes. Such structures are constructed utilizing a support including two normally upright sections connected by a plurality of links or link-type structures, one of which extends between the sections and serves as the platform. The links or link-type structures used are connected to the sections so that the sections can be manipulated between an open position in which they are spaced from one another and a folded position in which the sections are adjacent to one another. A slide is connected to one of the sections by mechanical connecting structures enabling the slide to be manipulated between an open position in which it extends outwardly from the support at an angle to the horizontal when the support is in an open position and a folded position in which it extends adjacent to one of the sections when the support is in a folded position.
