Abstract

An easy to assemble hammock stand is made up of three support members which are connected together. To facilitate connection, plates are located at each end of the support members which include a base and two upwardly extending end members having a plurality of key slot shaped openings with an upward larger entry section. The other of the members to be connected to the key slot shaped opening include corresponding lugs with large head portions which fit in through the larger portion of the key slot openings and then slidably engage securely in a narrower portion of the key slot opening to hold the three members together. Foot members are connected at the joints between the hammock stand member and connected with a combination of a similar key slot shaped arrangement, and conventional screws. The hammock stand components are preferably made of light weight metal tubing and covered with a covering such as wicker mesh.
