Description

Die Erfindung betrifft ein Rundfahrgeschäft mit einem Fahrgastträger, der am freien Ende eines um eine horizontale Achse dreh- und antreibbaren Auslegerarms angebracht und mit diesem bewegbar ist, wobei das Gegengewicht nur das Leegewicht des Fahrgastträgers ausgleicht, daß auf das Zahnrad mehrere, jeweils von einem eigenen Öl -oder Gleichstrommotor befestigtes, zur Achse konzentrisches Zahnrad von einem Ritzel angetrieben wird.The invention relates to a circular ride with a passenger carrier, which is attached to the free end of a cantilever arm that can be rotated and driven about a horizontal axis and is movable with the latter, the counterweight only compensating for the tare weight of the passenger carrier, that several, each of its own on the gearwheel Oil or DC motor mounted gear concentric with the axis is driven by a pinion.

Bei dem aus der US-A-1987004 bekannten Rundfahrgeschäft dieser Art ist ein Elektromotor vorgesehen, dessen Abtriebsritzel mit dem Zahnrad zusammenwirkt, welches auf einer den Auslegerarm tragenden Welle befestigt ist. Bei diesem bekannten Rundfahrgeschäft ist der Auslegerarm über diese Antriebswelle hinaus verlängert und trägt an seinem dem Fahrgastträger gegenüberliegenden Ende ein Ausgleichsgewicht, dessen Grösse durch veränderliche Wasserfüllung veränderbar ist.In the circular ride of this type known from US-A-1987004, an electric motor is provided, the output pinion of which cooperates with the gearwheel which is fastened on a shaft carrying the cantilever arm. In this known circular ride, the cantilever arm is extended beyond this drive shaft and carries a counterweight at its end opposite the passenger carrier, the size of which can be changed by changing the water filling.

Wenn das Farhverhalten eines solchen Rundfahrgeschäfts dem einer Schaukel - insbesondere einer Uberschlagschaukel - angenähert wird, bedarf es der Übertragung grosser Kräfte vom Motorantrieb auf das Zahnrad, weil das Durchmesserverhältnis zwischen Ausleger und Zahnrad sehr gross ist. Das gilt auch dann, wenn der Fahrgastträger rasch und ohne Aufschaukeln zu seiner Kreisbewegung beschleunigt werden soll. Die bekannte Anordnung zur Übertragung der motorischen Antriebskraft auf das Zahnrad würde eine so grosse Zahnbreite erfordern, dass eine praktische Ausführung in aller Regel ausscheidet.If the color behavior of such a round trip business is approximated to that of a swing - in particular a rollover swing - large forces must be transferred from the motor drive to the gear, because the diameter ratio between the boom and the gear is very large. This also applies if the passenger carrier is to be accelerated to its circular motion quickly and without rocking. The known arrangement for transmitting the motor drive force to the gearwheel would require such a large tooth width that a practical design is generally not possible.

Der Erfindung liegt daher die Aufgabe zugrunde, einen erheblich, auch exzentrisch belasteten, um eine Achse drehbaren Auslegerarm im Achsbereich anzutreiben und dafür das hierfür benötigte grosse Drehmoment über einen Zahnradantrieb von vertretbarer Dimensionierung aufzubringen.The invention is therefore based on the object of driving a cantilever arm which can be rotated about an axis and is eccentrically loaded, and for this purpose to apply the large torque required for this purpose via a gear drive of reasonable dimensions.

Erfindungsgemäss wird diese Aufgabe dadurch gelöst, dass der Auslegerarm über die Achse hinaus zu einem zweiten, ein Gegengewicht tragenden Auslegerarm verlängert ist und ein an den Auslegerarmen angetiebene Ritzel arbeiten, und dass das Zahnrad Teil einer Kugeldrehverbindung ist. Auf diese Weise ist es möglich, die Zahnabmessungen innerhalb normaler Grenzen zu halten und dennoch beträchtliche Antriebskräfte zu übertragen. Dabei gleicht die Elastizität des Ölmotorantriebs oder Gleichstrommotorantriebs Unterschiedlichkeiten an den einzelnen Ritzeln aus. Überdies ermöglicht der hydraulische Antrieb die Realisierung eines Freilaufs (der vorzugsweise zumindest während der Abwärtsfahrt des Schaukelkorbes zuschaltbar vorgesehen ist) mit einfachsten Mitteln, nämlich durch einen by-pass zum Ölmotor bzw. den Ölmotoren, in welchem ein Ventil öffnet, sobald die Druckverhältnisse (beim Übergang in die Abwärtfahrt) wechseln.According to the invention, this object is achieved in that the cantilever arm is extended beyond the axis to a second cantilever arm that bears a counterweight, and a pinion driven on the cantilever arms works, and in that the gear wheel is part of a rotary bearing connection. In this way it is possible to keep the tooth dimensions within normal limits and still transmit considerable driving forces. The elasticity of the oil motor drive or DC motor drive compensates for differences in the individual pinions. In addition, the hydraulic drive enables the implementation of a freewheel (which is preferably provided at least during the downward movement of the rocking basket) with the simplest means, namely by a by-pass to the oil motor or motors, in which a valve opens as soon as the pressure conditions (when Change to downward travel).

Aus der DE-A-1650848 ist es zwar bekannt, Drehmonente mehrere Ritzel am Umfang eines zentrischen Zahnrads vorzusehen und jedes Ritzel von einem eigenen Motor anzutreiben.From DE-A-1650848 it is known to provide several sprockets at the circumference of a central gearwheel and to drive each sprocket by its own motor.

Über die Anwendung dieser Antriebsanordnung bei Rundfahrgeschäften hinaus ermöglicht die Ausbildung des Zahnrades als Teil einer Kugeldrehverbindung den Verzicht auf eine zentrische Welle und einen relativ grossen Lagersowie Zahnraddurchmesser.In addition to the use of this drive arrangement in circular rides, the design of the gear as part of a ball slewing ring makes it possible to dispense with a central shaft and a relatively large bearing and gear diameter.

Sofern nicht die schon erörterte Freilauffahrt - vorgesehen ist, soll vorzugsweise die auf den Auslegerarm wirkende Antriebsleistung (ggf. auch das Antriebsmoment) über die gesamte Kreisbahn des Fahrgastträgers gleich sein.Unless the freewheeling trip already discussed is provided, the drive power acting on the cantilever arm (possibly also the drive torque) should preferably be the same over the entire circular path of the passenger carrier.

Der erfindungsgemässe Antrieb lässt sich mit Erfolg bei im übrigen unterschiedlichen Rundfahrgeschäften der vorliegenden Art anwenden. So kann vorgesehen sein, dass der Fahrgastträger starr am freien Ende des Auslegerarmes befestigt und im wesentlichen einem Ausschnitt der vom Ende des Auslegerarms beschriebebenen Kreisbahn entsprechend geformt ist. Bei einer solchen Ausbildung führt die gewollte Unwucht dazu, dass die Bewegung des Fahrgastträgers im steigenden Ast der Kreisbahn verzögert und im fallenden Ast beschleunigt wird. Die Fahrgäste haben daher den Eindruck, einen Looping zu fliegen oder in einem Wagen zu fahren.The drive according to the invention can be used with success in other round rides of the present type. Thus, it can be provided that the passenger carrier is rigidly attached to the free end of the cantilever arm and is essentially shaped in accordance with a section of the circular path described by the end of the cantilever arm. With such a design, the desired imbalance has the effect that the movement of the passenger carrier is delayed in the rising branch of the circular path and accelerated in the falling branch. The passengers therefore have the impression of flying a loop or driving in a car.

Jener Eindruck der Fahrgäste verstärkt sich, wenn der Fahrgastträger einen der Kreisbahn im wesentlichen entsprechenden, zur Achse konzentrischen Ring übergreift, der ebenfalls an den Auslegerarmen befestigt ist. Beim Betrieb dieses Rundfahrgeschäfts haben die auf dem Fahrgastträger sitzenden Personen den Eindruck, in einem Wagen zu sitzen und mit diesem auf der vom Ring gebildeten Schiene entlang zu fahren.That impression of the passengers increases when the passenger carrier engages over a ring which essentially corresponds to the circular path and is concentric with the axis and which is also fastened to the cantilever arms. In the operation of this tour business, the people sitting on the passenger carrier have the impression of sitting in a car and driving it along the rail formed by the ring.

Während bei der vorstehend geschilderten Konstruktion des erfindungsgemässen Rundfahrgeschäfts die Fahrgäste über Kopf durch den oberen Bereich der Kreisbahn geschleudert werden, geht eine alternative Ausbildung des erfindungsgemässen Rundfahrgeschäfts von einem Fahrgastträger aus, der am freien Ende des Auslegerarms derart schwenkbar angelenkt ist, dass er in allen Winkelstellungen des Auslegararms waagerecht hängt, wobei ein Gegengewicht an einem sich von der Achse in entgegengesetzter Richtung erstreckenden Ausgleichsarm das Leergewicht des Fahrgastträgers im wesentlichen ausgleicht. Für diesen Fall, der im Prinzip der aus der DE-A-2549261 bekannten Konstruktion entspricht, ist erfindungsgemäss vorgesehen, dass der Fahrgastträger an einem sich achsparallel vom Auslegerarm weg erstrekkenden Kragarm sitzt. Auf diese Weise ist der Fahrgastträger auf der einen Seite völlig frei von irgendwelchen Konstruktionsaufbauten, so dass den Fahrgästen der Eindruck vermittelt wird, sie schwebten frei durch die Luft. Dieser Eindruck verstärkt sich noch, wenn - wie bevorzugt - die Sitze des Fahrgastträgers quer zu dessen Schwenkachse, mit den Rückenlehnen zum Auslegerarm, angeordnet sind. Ausserdem erhalten die Fahrgäste auf diese Weise ein bessere, nach beiden Seiten gleiche Abstützung, wenn das Rundfahrgeschäft im Schaukelbetrieb (also mit wechselnder Drehrichtung) läuft.While in the construction of the round trip business according to the invention described above, the passengers are thrown overhead through the upper area of the circular path, an alternative embodiment of the round trip business according to the invention is based on a passenger carrier which is pivoted at the free end of the cantilever arm in such a way that it can be pivoted in all angular positions of the extension arm hangs horizontally, a counterweight on a compensating arm extending from the axis in the opposite direction essentially compensating for the empty weight of the passenger carrier. In this case, which corresponds in principle to the construction known from DE-A-2549261, it is provided according to the invention that the passenger carrier is seated on a cantilever arm extending parallel to the axis of the cantilever arm. In this way, the passenger carrier on the one hand is completely free of any design structures, so that the passengers are given the impression that they are floating freely in the air. This impression is reinforced if - as preferred - the seats of the passenger carrier are arranged transversely to its pivot axis, with the backrests to the cantilever arm. Also received this provides passengers with better support, which is the same on both sides, when the circular ride is in the swing mode (i.e. with changing direction of rotation).

Eine Weiterbildung dieser Art von Rundfahrgeschäft mit einem Fahrgastträger, dessen stets waagerechte Lage durch einen Kettentrieb zwischen der Schwenkwelle des Fahrgastträgers und der ruhenden Drehachse des Auslegerarms gesichert wird (DE-A-2549261), besteht darin, dass der Kettentrieb über ein am Auslegerarm gelagertes Kettenrad geführt und mit diesem ein Zahnrad verbunden ist, welches mit einem Zwischenrad kämmt, das seinerseits in ein zur Drehachse des Auslegerarms konzentrisches, ortsfestes Zahnrad eingreift, und dass mindestens der den Kettentrieb mit dem Kettenrad und Zahnrad tragende Teil des Auslegerarms an einem das Drehlager des Auslegerarms umfassenden Restteil lösbar befestigt ist. Eine solche Ausbildung macht es möglich, unter Beibehaltung des bekannten Kettentriebes (oder eines vergleichbar wirkenden Bauelements) die mit diesem bislang verbundenen Probleme zu beseitigen. Sie ergaben sich vor allem daraus, dass bei der in der Regel notwendigen Abnahme des Auslegers vom Traggestell (Ständer etc.) die Kette ebenfalls abgenommen werden musste. Dies ist umständlich und insoweit gefährlich, als Beschädigungen der Kette die Gefahr späterer Unfälle sich bergen.A further development of this type of circular ride with a passenger carrier, the horizontal position of which is always secured by a chain drive between the pivot shaft of the passenger carrier and the stationary axis of rotation of the cantilever arm (DE-A-2549261), consists in that the chain drive has a chain wheel mounted on the cantilever arm guided and connected to this a gear, which meshes with an idler gear, which in turn engages in a fixed gear concentric with the axis of rotation of the cantilever arm, and that at least the part of the cantilever arm supporting the chain drive with the sprocket and cogwheel on one of the pivot bearings of the cantilever arm comprehensive remaining part is releasably attached. Such a design makes it possible, while maintaining the known chain drive (or a component having a comparable effect), to eliminate the problems previously associated with it. They mainly resulted from the fact that the chain also had to be removed when the boom was generally removed from the supporting frame (stand, etc.). This is cumbersome and dangerous insofar as damage to the chain harbors the risk of later accidents.

Mit der vorstehend geschilderten Weiterentwicklung ist es möglich, den Ausleger im wesentlichen zu demontieren und wieder anzubringen, ohne den Kettentrieb anzufassen. Dabei spielt keine Rolle, ob das die notwendige Bewegungsumkehr bewirkende Zwischenrad zum demontierbaren Teil des Auslegerarms gehört oder mit dem Restteil am Ständer verbleibt.With the development described above, it is possible to essentially disassemble and reinstall the boom without touching the chain drive. It is irrelevant whether the intermediate wheel that causes the necessary reversal of movement belongs to the removable part of the cantilever arm or remains on the stand with the remaining part.

Der Schutz des Kettentriebs kann dadurch noch weiter vergrössert werden, dass er in dem als Gehäuse ausgebildeten Teil des Auslegerarms, gekapselt untergebracht wird. Gleichzeitig wird dadurch der Kettentrieb den Blicken der Fahrgäste entzogen, und der Inneraum eines aus Gründen statischer Zweckmässigkeit als Hohlkasten ausgebildeten Auslegerarms wird sinnvoll genutzt.The protection of the chain drive can be further increased by encapsulating it in the part of the cantilever arm designed as a housing. At the same time, the chain drive is hidden from the eyes of the passengers, and the interior of a cantilever arm designed for structural reasons is used in a sensible manner.

Ein Ständer 1 bzw. 101 (Figuren 3-6), auf dessen konstruktive Einzelheiten es im vorliegenden Zusammenhang nicht ankommt, trägt an seinem oberen freien Ende - seitwärts gerichtet - den feststehenden Teil 3 der Antriebsanordnung und die im ganzen mit 2 bezeichnete Kugeldrehverbindung, welche in er-Figtren-1---und 2 näher dargestellt ist. An dem sich um die Achse 7 drehenden Teil der Kugeldrehverbindung 2, nämlich einer Nabe 4, ist der Auslegerarm 8 (Figuren 3 und 4) bzw. 108 (Figuren 5 und 6) befestigt.A stand 1 or 101 (FIGS. 3-6), the structural details of which do not matter in the present context, carries at its upper free end - directed sideways - the fixed part 3 of the drive arrangement and the ball pivot connection designated as 2, which in he-Figtren-1 --- and 2 is shown in more detail. The cantilever arm 8 (FIGS. 3 and 4) or 108 (FIGS. 5 and 6) is fastened to the part of the ball slewing ring 2, namely a hub 4, which rotates about the axis 7.

Der Ständer 1 kann auch aus einer Lafette mit mehreren Radpaaren bestehen, an der ein Achsträger schwenkbar angelenkt und nach jedem Transport des Rundfahrgeschäfts mit Hilfe eines mehrstufigen Teleskopzylinders aufrichtbar ist. Dabei kann die Anordnung (wie Fig. 4 veranschaulicht) so getroffen sein, dass der Achsträger nicht bis in seine senkrechte Stellung geschwenkt zu werden braucht, wodurch die Möglichkeit besteht, vorn einsteigende Fahrgäste nach hinten aussteigen zu lassen. Ein solcher Achsträger wird in seiner Betriebsstellung von Pendelstützen ausgesteift.The stand 1 can also consist of a carriage with several pairs of wheels, to which an axle support is pivotably articulated and can be erected with the aid of a multi-stage telescopic cylinder after each transport of the tour business. The arrangement (as illustrated in FIG. 4) can be such that the axle support does not have to be pivoted into its vertical position, so that it is possible for passengers boarding the vehicle to get out at the rear. Such an axle beam is braced by pendulum supports in its operating position.

Die Figuren 1 und 2 veranschaulichen die erfindungsgemässe Antriebsanordnung, welche den beiden in den Figuren 3 und 4 bzw. 5 und 6 dargestellten Ausführungsbeispielen gemeinsam ist. Der Innenring 2' der Kugeldrehverbindung 2 istwie am deutlichsten aus Fig. 2 hervorgeht - am feststehenden Teil 3 der Antriebsanordnung befestigt. Der Aussenring der Kugeldrehverbindung 2 ist als Aussenzahnrad 16 ausgebildet. In diesen Zahnkranz greifen vier Ritzel 17 ein, deren jedes - von einem separaten Motor 18, beispielsweise einem Ölmotor, angetrieben wid. Die Motoren 18 sind auf dem feststehenden Teil 3 der Antriebsanordnung befistigt und in geeigneter Weise untereinander sowie mit der Kraftversorgung und der Steuerung verbunden.FIGS. 1 and 2 illustrate the drive arrangement according to the invention, which is common to the two exemplary embodiments shown in FIGS. 3 and 4 or 5 and 6. The inner ring 2 'of the ball slewing ring 2 is, as can be seen most clearly from Fig. 2, attached to the fixed part 3 of the drive arrangement. The outer ring of the ball slewing ring 2 is designed as an external gear 16. Four sprockets 17 engage in this ring gear, each of which is driven by a separate motor 18, for example an oil motor. The motors 18 are mounted on the fixed part 3 of the drive arrangement and are connected in a suitable manner to one another and to the power supply and the control.

Beim Ausführungsbeispiel der Figuren 3 und 4 ist am freien Ende des Auslegerarms 8 ein Fahrgastträger 9 starr befestigt. Er (d.h. vor allem sein die Sitze 10 tragender Boden 11) hat die Form eines Ausschnitts der Kreisbahn, die er bei Drehung des Auslegerarms 8 um die Achse 7 überstreicht. Ferner übergreifgt - zumindest scheinbar - der Fahrgastträger 9 einen Schienenring 12, welcher ebenfalls am freien Ende des Auslegerarms 8 sowie, zur Achse diametral gegenüber, am freien Ende eines den Auslegerarm 8 über die Achse 7 hinaus verlängernden zweiten Auslegerarms 13 befestigt ist. Der Ring 12 dreht sich demgemäss mit den Auslegerarmen 8 und 13, wenn diese über die Kugeldrehverbindung 2 um die Achse 7 drehend angetrieben werden.In the embodiment of Figures 3 and 4, a passenger carrier 9 is rigidly attached to the free end of the cantilever arm 8. It (i.e. above all its base 11 supporting the seats 10) has the shape of a section of the circular path which it sweeps over the axis 7 when the extension arm 8 rotates. Furthermore, the passenger carrier 9 overlaps - at least apparently - a rail ring 12, which is also fastened to the free end of the extension arm 8 and, diametrically opposite to the axis, to the free end of a second extension arm 13 extending the extension arm 8 beyond the axis 7. The ring 12 accordingly rotates with the cantilever arms 8 and 13 when these are driven to rotate about the axis 7 via the ball slewing ring 2.

Der Querschnitt des Ringes 12 ist so gewählt, dass die Fahrgäste auf den Sitzen 10 im Fahrgastträger 9 den Eindruck haben, sie sässen in einem Wagen, welcher auf einer Schiene abrollt. Unter "Ubergreifen" ist im vorliegenden Zusammenhang auch ein Eingreifen in den Ring 12 sowie jede andere, das Verbinden des Fahrgastträgers 9 bzw. des Auslegerarms, 8 mit dem Ring 12 erlaubende Relativlage zu verstehen.The cross-section of the ring 12 is selected so that the passengers on the seats 10 in the passenger carrier 9 have the impression that they are sitting in a car that rolls on a rail. "Overreaching" is in the present context also intervening in the ring 12 as well as any other relative position allowing the connection of the passenger carrier 9 or the extension arm 8 to the ring 12 to be understood.

Im Bereich des freien Endes des zweiten Auslegerarms 13 ist ausserdem ein das Gewicht des leeren Fahrgastträgers 9 ausgleichendes Gegengewicht 14 angeordnet. Mit 15 sind Ketten von Lichtquellen angedeutet, welche auf dem Ring 12 befestigt sind.In the area of the free end of the second cantilever arm 13 there is also a counterweight 14 which compensates for the weight of the empty passenger carrier 9. With 15 chains of light sources are indicated, which are attached to the ring 12.

Die Figuren 5 und 6 zeigen ein anderes Ausführungsbeispiel; darin sind dem zuvor beschriebenen Ausführungsbeispiel entsprechende, aber konstruktiv abweichende Bauteile mit einem um 100 erhöhten Bezugszeichen versehen. Der Ständer 101 trägt die erfindunggemässe Antriebsanordnung mit der Kugeldrehverbindung 2 zwischen dem feststehenden Teil 3 und der Nabe 4. An letzterer sind sowohl der den Fahrgastträger 109 tragende Auslegerarm 108 als auch der das Gegengewicht 114 tragende zweite Auslegerarm 113 befestigt.Figures 5 and 6 show another embodiment; In this example, components which correspond to the exemplary embodiment described above but are structurally different are provided with a reference number increased by 100. The stand 101 carries the drive arrangement according to the invention with the rotary ball joint 2 between the fixed part 3 and the hub 4. Both the cantilever arm 108 carrying the passenger carrier 109 and the second cantilever arm 113 carrying the counterweight 114 are fastened to the latter.

Der Fahrgastträger 109 ist am Auslegerarm 108 mit Hilfe eines Kragarms 20 etwa in Höhe der Fahrgastsitze 110 derart schwenkbar befestigt, dass er sich in allen Drehlagen des Auslegerarms 108 in Waagerechter Lage befindet (vergleiche Fig. 7 und 8). Fig. 6 macht deutlich, dass die Fahrgastsitze 110 mit den Rückenlehnen zum Auslegerarm 108 hin angeordnet sind, und zwar in mehreren Reihen, die treppenartig gegeneinander versetzt sind, wobei die höchste Reihe nächst dem Auslegerarm 108 angeordnet ist.The passenger carrier 109 is pivotally attached to the cantilever arm 108 by means of a cantilever arm 20 approximately at the height of the passenger seats 110 in such a way that it is in a horizontal position in all rotational positions of the cantilever arm 108 (cf. FIGS. 7 and 8). FIG. 6 makes it clear that the passenger seats 110 are arranged with the backrests toward the extension arm 108, in several rows that are offset in a step-like manner, the highest row being arranged next to the extension arm 108.

Die Figuren 7 und 8 zeigen ein Ausführungsbeispiel für die erfindungsgemässe Parallelführung des Fahrgastträgers 109 am Auslegerarm 108, und zwar in schematischer Darstellung unter Fortlassung der Antriebsanordnung.FIGS. 7 and 8 show an exemplary embodiment for the parallel guidance of the passenger carrier 109 according to the invention on the extension arm 108, specifically in a schematic representation while leaving out the drive arrangement.

Der den (hier nicht dargestellten) Fahrgastträger 109 haltende Kragarm 20 ist in Form eines Schwenkzapfens im Auslegerarm 108 gelagert und trägt ein Kettenrad 125, über das eine Kette 124 läuft. Das Gegen-Kettenrad 126 ist zusammen mit einem Zahnrad 127 auf einem Drehzapfen 131 befestigt, der ebenfalls am Auslegerarm 108 ge- . lagert ist. Etwa tangential zum Teilkreis des Zahnrades 127 ist der Auslegerarm 108 bei 132 geteilt. Der Teil 123 mit dem Kettentrieb 124 bis 126 lässt sich vom Restteil 122 durch lösen von Schrauben o.dgl. abnehmen, wobei der gesamte Kettentrieb am Teil 123 verbleibt.The cantilever 20 holding the passenger carrier 109 (not shown here) is mounted in the form of a pivot pin in the extension arm 108 and carries a chain wheel 125 over which a chain 124 runs. The counter sprocket 126 is fastened together with a gear 127 on a pivot 131, which is also on the extension arm 108. is stored. The cantilever arm 108 is divided at 132 approximately tangentially to the pitch circle of the gear wheel 127. The part 123 with the chain drive 124 to 126 can be removed from the remaining part 122 by loosening screws or the like. remove, leaving the entire chain drive on part 123.

Beim Wiederansetzen des Teils 123 kommt das Zahnrad 127 mit einem am Restteil 122 des Auslegerarms 108 gelagerten Zwischenzahnrad 128 in Eingriff. Dieses kämmt seinerseits mit einem feststehenden Zahnrad 129, welches konzentrisch zur Achse 7 an einem im vorliegenden Beispiel als feststehende Achse dargestellten Bauteil befestigt ist. Um diese ist der Restteil 122 des Auslegerarms 108 mittels des Gleitlagers 130 drehbar.When the part 123 is reattached, the gear 127 comes into engagement with an intermediate gear 128 mounted on the remaining part 122 of the extension arm 108. This in turn meshes with a fixed gear 129, which is fixed concentrically to the axis 7 on a component shown in the present example as a fixed axis. The remaining part 122 of the cantilever arm 108 can be rotated about this by means of the sliding bearing 130.

Wird der aus den Teilen 122 und 123 zusammengesetzte Auslegerarm 108 in nicht dargestellter Weise in Drehung versetzt, so wälzt sich das Zwischenrad 128 auf dem Zahnrad 129 ab und erteilt dem Zahnrad 127 (von gleicher Grösse wie das Zahnrad 129) eine Drehung, welche durch den Kettentrieb 124 bis 126 auf den Kragarm 20 und damit den Fahrgastträger 109 übertragen wird. Dabei entspricht der Drehwinkel des Fahrgasttragers 109 entgegengesetzt demjenigen des Auslegerarms 108, so dass der Fahrgastträger 109 stets in waagerechter Lage gehalten wird. Gleichwohl braucht beim Demontieren und Zusammensetzen des Rundfahrgeschäfts unter Abnahme des (grössten Teils des) Auslegerarms 108 der diese Relativlage sichernde Kettentrieb nicht berührt zu werden.If the cantilever arm 108 composed of the parts 122 and 123 is rotated in a manner not shown, the idler gear 128 rolls on the gear 129 and gives the gear 127 (of the same size as the gear 129) a rotation which is caused by the Chain drive 124 to 126 is transmitted to the cantilever 20 and thus the passenger carrier 109. The angle of rotation of the passenger carrier 109 corresponds to that of the extension arm 108, so that the passenger carrier 109 is always held in a horizontal position. Nevertheless, the chain drive securing this relative position does not have to be touched when dismantling and assembling the circular business with the removal of the (most of the) extension arm 108.

Es ist daher auch möglich, den Kettentrieb 124 bis 126 in einem als geschlossenes Gehäuse ausgebildeten Auslegerarm 108 praktisch vollständig gekapselt unterzubringen. Selbstverständlich kann - wie ohne weiteres einleuchtet - die Trennstelle 132 zwischen den Teilen 122 und 123 des Auslegerarms 108 auch im Bereich des Eingriffs der Zahnräder 128 und 129 angeordnet werden, so dass das Zwischenrad 128 ebenfalls am Teil 123 gelagert ist.It is therefore also possible to accommodate the chain drive 124 to 126 practically completely encapsulated in a cantilever arm 108 designed as a closed housing. Of course - as is readily apparent - the separation point 132 between the parts 122 and 123 of the cantilever arm 108 can also be arranged in the area of the engagement of the gear wheels 128 and 129, so that the intermediate wheel 128 is also mounted on the part 123.
