ABSTRACT:
An improved hammock stand including a central base pipe, a pair of canted upstanding arm pipes, a set of four foot extension pipes, and a pair of connector assemblies to which the individually mountable/demountable feet extension, arm and base pipes may be telescopingly mounted. Each connector unit has a pair of extension pipes welded to a bowed crosspiece pipe oriented concave down. The extension pipes are identical in character and disposed on the crosspiece pipe such that the pipes lie in a vertical plane which passes transversely through the crosspiece at the center of the bend. The arm and base pipes telescopingly mount onto the extension pipes; the foot extension pipes telescopingly mount onto the crosspiece pipe so that they are canted downwardly and outwardly from about one to about five degrees. The bend in the crosspiece pipe creates a vertical lift beneath the connector assemblies and the central base pipe thereby compensating for uneven ground surface levels, and stabilizing and cushioning the support of the hammock. In addition, the outer diameter of the crosspiece and extension pipes when compared to the inner diameter of the feet, base and arm pipes, provide enough clearance such that the feet, base and arm pipes may be easily slipped on and off the crosspiece and extension pipes in order to prevent jamming and, thus avoiding a problem of not being able to disassemble the unit once it has been assembled.
