ABSTRACT:
A teeter-totter is constructed with a pair of seats mounted at opposite ends of a rocker beam. The seats, when aligned horizontally, are below the pivot point so as to provide a pendular component of motion. The pivot is supported on an overhead framework and the rocker beam is suspended below the pivot to eliminate the pinch points found in conventional teeter-totter designs. A counterbalance mechanism may be incorporated so that users of different weights remain in balance while operating the teeter-totter.
