Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a device for the installation and removal of the floor elements of a ride which can be transported on a trailer, in particular of a ride called auto-skooter, comprising a base element secured to the trailer forming the base part. of the track floor with the front ends of this base element two vertical wall elements generally constituting the lower part of the vertical pillars supporting the roof of the arena, perpendicular beams being arranged laterally from the base part of the floor for support the floor elements.
  • the problem which the present invention therefore seeks to solve is the manipulation, namely the laying and removal by a simple device of the additional floor elements intended to form the floor of the carousel from a basic floor element constituted by the floor of the transport trailer, the additional floor elements being stored and transported in said trailer.
  • the present invention therefore relates to a device for the storage and installation of floors by juxtaposed elements of the above type comprising on the inner face of each vertical wall element located at the ends of the base element of the floor at least one support element forming a raceway, the floor elements comprising, at each of their ends and in the vicinity of the edge intended to be the farthest from the base part of the floor, at least one means capable of cooperating with the aforesaid support element for vertically suspending, by means of said means, the floor elements from the support elements, a lifting and tilting means mounted oscillating about an axis parallel to the longitudinal edge of the base element of the floor, this means being likely to hang a floor element suspended from the support elements, to release it, to bring it by tilting above the plane of the floor joists, to push it on said beams and to replace the floor elements on the support elements by a reverse operation.
  • the lateral support elements consist of rolling tracks sloping towards the side where the floor elements must be put in place, the means provided at each end of the floor element for cooperating with the support element being a roller, the raceways comprising a stop at their lower end.
  • the means for lifting and tilting the floor elements consists of two slides articulated at the ends of the central element and capable of being tilted around this axis by a control jack, a carriage which can slide along of each of said slides, this carriage carrying a means for hooking a floor element by cooperation with additional means provided on said floor element and means for sliding the two carriages.
  • the length of the stroke of the carriage in the slide is at least equal to the width of a floor element.
  • the slides are secured to the side panel of the corresponding side and articulated around the axis of articulation of the side panel, this side panel being tilted by jacks articulated at their other end on the frame of the central part.
  • the means for sliding each carriage consists of a jack housed in the slide in the vicinity of the point of articulation thereof.
  • the surfaces of the support beams of the floor and the side panel on which the floor elements are supported during their movement are constituted by anti-friction means such as rollers.
  • the carousel comprises a basic central element comprising a floor 1 having a width compatible with road traffic and a length, perpendicular to the plane of the drawing, equal to the width of the track of the carousel.
  • This floor is carried by a frame 2 which also carries end walls, not shown, perpendicular to the floor 1 and therefore parallel to the plane of the figure.
  • the device is symmetrical and the floor of the merry-go-round track is deployed on either side of the central part 1. In the drawing, however, only the case, also possible, has been shown, where the track is made on only one side of the storage space for the floor elements.
  • On the two end walls facing each other are fixed inclined raceways 3, parallel and having a stop 4 at their lower end.
  • the floor elements comprise in known manner a support body 5 whose length perpendicular to the plane of the figure is equal to the width of the track and whose width is for example 1.10 meters.
  • a sheet metal 6 is fixed on the upper surface of the carrier body so that the floor can constitute one of the vehicle supply conductors.
  • These floor elements are stored during transport above the element 1 by being suspended by lateral rollers 7 between the two raceways 3 of the two end walls.
  • the floor elements also carry on each of their two end faces a lug 8 which is used for their handling but which can also be used, by cooperation with a means not shown attached to the other end of each side face, to ensure the joining of the installed floor elements.
  • the floor also comprises, in known manner, a number of parallel beams 9 distributed over the entire width of the track and adjusted in level to receive the floor elements 5.
  • beams 9 At their end close to part 1, beams 9 have a recess 10 intended to receive the side panel 11 shown in phantom in the tilted position in this recess.
  • This drop side is articulated on the side of the chassis 2 by an axis 12 and its displacement between the raised position shown in dashed lines and its tilted position represented in broken lines, is provided by one or more jacks 13 articulated between an axis 14 secured to the side panel 11 and an axis 15 carried by the frame 2.
  • the side panel 11 1 is generally formed by profiles which extend the beams 9 with bracing. To facilitate the movement of the floor elements 5 on the beams 9 and the corresponding profiles of the side panel 11, the upper surface of these is provided with rollers 16 generally produced in the form of roller chains.
  • the actual handling device of the floor elements 5 is constituted by two slides preferably constituted by a C-shaped section which are articulated on the same axis 12 as the side panel 11 and secured to the latter at the two ends of said side panel 11 of so as to tilt with it passing outside the end face of the floor elements 5.
  • the slides are made up of two parts of section in C, the base 17 and an extension 17 'secured together by a lateral hinge 18 and a corresponding attachment means on the opposite face of the slide.
  • the slides (assembly 17, 17 ′) are used to guide carriages 19 carried by rollers 20, these carriages bearing on a body projecting through the slot in the base 17 of the slideway and comprising a clamp 21 constituted by two stops elastic articulated around axes 22. These two stops leave between them an interval in which can be accommodated the lug 8 of the lateral face of a floor element.
  • the movement of a carriage 19 is controlled by a jack 23 housed in the base 17 of the slide.
  • the operation of the device described above is as follows.
  • the frame 2 is leveled then the beams 9 are put in place and wedged in level.
  • the slide (assembly 17-17 ') is deployed and secured, if it was not already, with the drop side 11.
  • the carriage 19 is in the position shown with the clamps 21 enclosing the lug 8 of the first floor element .
  • the jack 23 is then extended by a few centimeters to make the roller 7 escape the stop 4, then the jacks 13 are actuated to tilt the side panel 11 and the slides (together 17 and 17 ') which drive with them the first floor element 5 which rests on the rollers 16 of the drop side.
  • the rollers 16 of the side panel are level with those of the beams 9. Then the cylinder 23 is extended to pass the floor element of the rollers of the drop side on the rollers of the beams 9, at least until the drop side 11 is released.
  • the clamps 21 are then released from the lugs 8 and the carriages 19 are brought backwards in order to free them from said lug, then the sideboard 11, the slides (assembly 17, 17 ′) and the carriages 19 are brought back to the starting position by commanding suitably the jacks 23 and 13 for loading the second floor element 5 which is lowered by gravity by pressing on the stop 4 and the cycle is repeated with this second floor element 5 which pushes the first element placed on the beams 9 and is secured with him.
  • the penultimate floor element is placed, the first element 5 is in abutment at the end of the track, which leaves between the penultimate element 5 and the floor 1 only the place of an element 5.
  • its position on the drop side 11 is adjusted with the jack 23 so that its lower edge is in contact with the edge adjacent to the floor part 10 so that it comes to fit exactly in free space.
  • the folding of the runway is done by a reverse operation, the floor elements 5 joined together being brought back to the removal position, that is to say with the first element to be removed above the drop side, by displacement of all of the elements still in place with the jack 23, the first and second elements 5 to be removed are then separated before the resuspension operation of the first element 5 which drives the floor elements 5 removed before it onto the raceway 3.
