Abstract
A pivoting swing maintains a support member that is rotatably attached to pivot assembly allows the support member to be rotated in any desired position. The pivot assembly includes a lock assembly that allows the position of the support member to be retained once a desired position has been found. Flexible suspension members attach the support member to the pivot assembly, thereby allowing the support member to swing back and forth once the support member has been rotated to a desired position.
Claims16
A pivoting swing for attachment to an overhead member, the pivoting swing comprising:
- a pivot assembly adapted to be attached to the overhead member, wherein said pivot assembly includes a rotating arm that receives a carrying member pivotably attached to said pivot assembly, said rotating arm rotating upon a bearing assembly maintained by said pivot assembly;
- and
- a support member coupled to said carrying member by at least one flexible suspension member, wherein said support member is moved when said carrying member is rotated.
A pivoting swing for attachment to an overhead member, the pivoting swing comprising:
- a pivot assembly adapted to be attached to the overhead member, wherein said pivot assembly includes a rotating arm that receives a carrying member pivotably attached to said pivot assembly, said rotating arm rotating upon a bearing assembly maintained by said pivot assembly, said pivot assembly including a lock plate, maintaining at least one lock aperture to receive a lock pin carried by a lock assembly attached to said rotating arm to selectively lock said carrying member in place;
- and
- a support member coupled to said carrying member by at least one flexible suspension member, wherein said support member is moved when said carrying member is rotated.
A pivoting swing for attachment to an overhead member comprising:
- a lock plate adapted to be attached to the overhead member, said lock plate maintaining at least one lock aperture;
- a shaft received through said lock plate and adapted to be attached to the overhead member;
- a bearing assembly adjacent said lock plate and carried by said shaft;
- a rotating arm rotatably carried by said bearing assembly, said rotating arm carrying a lock pin to selectively engage said at least one lock aperture to lock said rotating arm in place;
- a carrying member received by said rotating arm, wherein said rotating arm and said carrying member are supported by said shaft;
- and
- a support assembly attached to said carrying member by at least one flexible suspension member to allow said support assembly to move forward and backward.
