ABSTRACT:
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
This invention entails the design of a structure comprised of two basic modules which, on being fitted together, form a modular arch which can be attached in line to other similar modular arches to form an elongated, winding structure of an optional layout and length depending upon the method used to connect said modules and of the number of modules employed.
The result is a structure in the shape of a tunnel or an ogival-shaped duct, which, as a whole, simulates the body of a fanciful centipede, with additional parts for the head and tail, each of which are equipped with round openings for the entry of children, who can go through the inside of the structure, it being possible for the adults to monitor the children from the outside thanks to the round windows located at different levels along the walls of the modules.
The structure is equipped with stable added supports which comprise the worm's feet and has a curved, smooth outer surface, which forms the worm's back on which the children can play as part of their games.
This structure is assembled without any screws by an adult, on a flat surface, and is stored, after being broken down into its different modules, requiring very little space.
For the purpose of facilitating the explanation, a sheet of drawings is attached to this descriptive report on which one embodiment which is being provided as an example is shown.
