Description

Die Erfindung betrifft ein Rundfahrgeschäft mit einer um eine im wesentlichen vertikale Mittelachse dreh-und antreibbaren Bodenscheibe, auf der mit Abstand von der Mittelachse mehrere Sitzträger jeweils an einer Nabe befestigt und um eine ebenfalls im wesentlichen vertikale Achse drehbar gelagert sind, wobei die horizontale Hauptebene jedes Sitzträgers senkrecht zur Mittelachse verläuft.The invention relates to a circular ride with a bottom disk rotatable and drivable about a substantially vertical central axis, on which a plurality of seat supports are each attached to a hub at a distance from the central axis and are rotatably mounted about a likewise substantially vertical axis, the horizontal main plane each Seat carrier runs perpendicular to the central axis.

Rundfahrgeschäfte dieser Art sind in mehreren Spielarten bekannt. Dem einfachen Karussell gegenüber, auf dessen Bodenscheibe die Sitze oder Sitzträger starr befestigt sind, hat eine derartige Konstruktion den Vorteil eines zusätzlichen Bewegungsablaufes und damit größeren Fahrerlebnisses.Circular rides of this type are known in several varieties. Compared to the simple carousel, on the bottom pane of which the seats or seat supports are rigidly attached, such a construction has the advantage of an additional movement sequence and thus a greater driving experience.

Bei den bekannten Fahrgeschäften dieser Art stehen die Mittelachsen der Sitzträger lotrecht auf der Bodenscheibe und verlaufen somit parallel zur Mittelachse. Je nach Ausbildung kann der Sitzträger (mit einem Sitz oder mehreren) sich über den vollen Kreis um seine Achse drehen oder wird durch Anschläge auf ein Schwenksegment begrenzt.In the known rides of this type, the central axes of the seat supports are perpendicular to the base plate and thus run parallel to the central axis. Depending on the design, the seat support (with one seat or more) can rotate about its axis over the full circle or is limited by stops to a swivel segment.

Von diesem Stand der Technik ausgehend liegt der Erfindung die Aufgabe zugrunde, ohne zusätzlichen herstellungstechnischen Aufwand die Attraktivität eines derartigen - relativ einfachen - Fahrgeschäfts weiter zu erhöhen.Starting from this state of the art, the invention is based on the object of making the attractiveness of a product without additional manufacturing outlay to further increase such - relatively simple - rides.

Die Lösung dieser Aufgabe gelingt erfindungsgemäß dadurch, daß die Achsen der Sitzträger gegenüber der Mittelachse geneigt und die Sitzträger unter einem der Neigung entsprechenden Winkel an ihren Naben befestigt sind, so daß nur in einer Ruhelage die Hauptebene des Sitzträgers senkrecht zur Mittelachse verläuft. In dieser Ruhelage befindet sich der Sitzträger nämlich am tiefsten Punkt seiner Kreisbahn um die Sitzträgerachse, während an jedem anderen Punkt der Kreisbahn der Sitzträger (mit dem Sitz) angehoben ist und seine Hauptebene einen von 90° abweichenden Winkel mit der Mittelachse einschließt, so daß sich diese Hauptebene nicht - wie in der Ruhelage und bei den bekannten Konstruktionen - parallel zur Bodenscheibe erstreckt. Aufgrund der Erdanziehung hat der (um seine Achse frei drehbare) Sitzträger jedoch das Bestreben, in die erwähnte Ruhelage zurückzukehren, wenn er aus dieser ausgelenkt wurde. Zwangsläufig weist der Sitzträger (bzw. dessen Umfangssegment-Mitte) in der Ruhelage in diejenige Richtung, in die die Achse des Sitzträgers geneigt ist.This object is achieved according to the invention in that the axes of the seat supports are inclined with respect to the central axis and the seat supports are attached to their hubs at an angle corresponding to the inclination, so that the main plane of the seat support extends perpendicular to the central axis only in a rest position. In this rest position, the seat support is at the lowest point of its circular path around the seat support axis, while at every other point of the circular path the seat support (with the seat) is raised and its main plane encloses an angle deviating from 90 ° with the central axis, so that this main level does not - as in the rest position and in the known constructions - extend parallel to the base plate. However, due to gravity, the seat support (which can be freely rotated about its axis) tends to return to the aforementioned rest position when it has been deflected out of it. In the rest position, the seat support (or its circumferential segment center) inevitably points in the direction in which the axis of the seat support is inclined.

Vorzugsweise ist die Achse des Sitzträgers entweder radial auswärts oder radial einwärts geneigt. Dies hat gegenüber einer Seitwärtsneigung den Vorteil sinnfälliger Ausrichtung der Sitzträger und damit der Sitze in ihrer Ruhelage, welche gleichzeitig die Einstiegsposition beim Fahrgastwechsel ist.The axis of the seat support is preferably inclined either radially outwards or radially inwards. Compared to a sideways inclination, this has the advantage of a sensible alignment of the seat supports and thus the seats in their rest position, which is also the entry position when changing passengers.

Im Betrieb des erfindungsgemäßen Rundfahrgeschäfts wird jeder Sitzträger samt Sitz und Fahrgast schon aufgrund von Beschleunigungs- und Verzögerungskräften eine 'Berg- und Talfahrt' vollführen. Er kann eine solche den beiden Drehbewegungen (um die Mittelachse sowie die Sitzträgerachse) überlagerte Vertikalbewegung auch willkürlich herbeiführen; vorteilhaft ist deshalb am oberen Ende der Achse des Sitzträgers ein Handrad - relativ zum Bodenscheibe - starr befestigt.In the operation of the roundabout shop according to the invention, each seat carrier including the seat and passenger is already Carry out an 'ascent and descent' due to acceleration and deceleration forces. He can also bring about such a vertical movement superimposed on the two rotary movements (about the central axis and the seat support axis); Therefore, a handwheel - relative to the base plate - is rigidly attached to the upper end of the axis of the seat support.

Eine Weiterbildung der Erfindung sieht vor, daß die Sitzträger gruppenweise auf Zwischenscheiben angeordnet sind, deren jede um eine auf der Bodenscheibe senkrecht stehende Zwischenachse dreh- und antreibbar ist sowie radialen Abstand von der Mittelachse hat. Solche Satelliten-Konstruktionen sind an sich bekannt. In bezug auf die Zwischenachse sind die erfindungsgemäße Anordnung und die neue Wirkung der Sitzträgerachsen mit ihren Sitzträgern die gleichen wie vorstehend mit bezug auf die Mittelachse beschrieben, jedoch überlagert sich dem noch die Drehung der Zwischenscheiben um die Mittelachse, so daß ein zusätzliches, für den einzelnen Fahrgast auf- und abschwellendes Fliehkräftfeld wirkt.A further development of the invention provides that the seat supports are arranged in groups on intermediate disks, each of which can be rotated and driven about an intermediate axis perpendicular to the base disk and has a radial distance from the central axis. Such satellite constructions are known per se. With regard to the intermediate axis, the arrangement according to the invention and the new effect of the seat support axles with their seat supports are the same as described above with respect to the central axis, but this still overlaps the rotation of the intermediate discs about the central axis, so that an additional one for the individual Passenger up and down centrifugal force field acts.

Schließlich ist es noch möglich, die Anordnung so zu treffen, daß die Mittelachse gegen die Lotrechte um einen Winkel schrägstellbar ist, der kleiner als der Neigungswinkel der Sitzträgerachsen ist. Die letztere Bedingung verhindert, daß die Wirkung der Sitzträgerachsen-Neigung durch die Neigung der Mittelachse aufgehoben wird. Im übrigen aber überlagern sich in diesem Falle zwei 'Berg- und Talfahrten'; unter Aufrechterhaltung der einander überlagerten Drehbewegungen.Finally, it is still possible to make the arrangement in such a way that the central axis can be inclined at an angle to the vertical which is smaller than the angle of inclination of the seat support axes. The latter condition prevents the effect of the seat support axis inclination from being canceled by the inclination of the central axis. For the rest, however, two 'ascents and descents' overlap in this case; while maintaining the superimposed rotary movements.

Die Zeichnung veranschaulicht die Erfindung an einem Ausführungsbeispiel. Darin zeigt:

  • Fig. 1 in schematischem Querschnitt eine Hälfte der Bodenscheibe mit jedoch nur einem Sitzträger;
  • Fig. 2 eine der Figur 1 gleiche Darstellung, jedoch mit einer anderen Sitzträger-Anordnung;
  • Fig. 3 eine - ebenfalls schematische - Draufsicht auf einen Viertelkreis-Ausschnitt des Rundfahrgeschäfts; und
  • Fig. 4 eine der Figur 1 entsprechende Darstellung der Anordnung mit Zwischenscheibe.
The drawing illustrates the invention using an exemplary embodiment. It shows:
  • 1 shows a schematic cross section of one half of the base plate, but with only one seat support;
  • FIG. 2 shows an illustration identical to FIG. 1, but with a different seat support arrangement;
  • 3 shows a plan view, likewise schematic, of a quarter-circle section of the circular shop; and
  • Fig. 4 is a representation corresponding to Figure 1 of the arrangement with washer.

In der bei Karussells üblichen Weise trägt ein zentraler Mittelbau 1 drehbar eine Bodenscheibe 2, welche gemäß Figur 3 kreisrund ist, aber auch eine hiervon abweichende äußere Kontur besitzen kann. Der im Mittelbau 1 angeordnete Antrieb ist nicht dargestellt; er dreht die Bodenscheibe 2 um die vertikale Mittelachse 3.In the manner customary in carousels, a central central structure 1 rotatably supports a base plate 2, which according to FIG. 3 is circular, but can also have an outer contour that deviates therefrom. The drive arranged in the middle section 1 is not shown; it rotates the base plate 2 about the vertical central axis 3.

Mit radialem Abstand von der Mittelachse 3 und am Umfang gleichmäßig verteilt sind Sitzträger 4 angeordnet, die im vorliegenden Beispiel mit dem Fahrgastsitz 5 zu einem Bauteil vereinigt sind. Der Sitzträger 4 ist an einer Nabe 6 befestigt, welche um eine strich-punktiert angedeutete Achse 7 frei drehbar ist. Am oberen Ende der Achse 7 ist ein Handrad 8 befestigt, welches - da die Achse 7 fest auf der Bodenscheibe 2 sitzt - dieser gegenüber ortsfest bleibt, wenn sich die Nabe 6 mit dem Sitzträger 4 um die Achse 7 dreht. Eine solche Bewegung kann daher von einem Fahrgast verursacht werden, der sich mit seinen Händen am Handrad 8 abstützt.Seat supports 4 are arranged at a radial distance from the central axis 3 and evenly distributed on the circumference, which in the present example are combined with the passenger seat 5 to form a component. The seat support 4 is fastened to a hub 6, which is freely rotatable about an axis 7 indicated by dash-dotted lines. At the upper end of the axis 7, a handwheel 8 is attached, which - since the axis 7 is firmly seated on the base plate 2 - remains stationary when the hub 6 rotates about the axis 7 with the seat support 4. Such a movement can therefore be caused by a passenger who is supported on the handwheel 8 with his hands.

Abweichend von bekannten Anordnungen ist die Achse 7 nicht lotrecht auf der Bodenscheibe 2 befestigt, sondern dieser gegenüber geneigt auf ihr angeordnet, und zwar gemäß Figur 1 radial auswärts, gemäß Figur 2 radial einwärts. Mit der Lotrechten schließt die Achse 7 des Sitzträgers 4 einen Winkel α ein. Unter einem entsprechenden Winkel fi = 90°- α ist der Sitzträger 4 mit seiner horizontalen Hauptebene 4a an der Nabe 6 befestigt. Aus diesem Grunde wird der Sitz 5, wenn er in der einen oder anderen Richtung aus seiner in Fig. 1 (und Fig. 2) dargestellten Ruhelage herausgedreht wird, der Achs- und Sitzträger-Neigung entsprechend angehoben; in den Fig. 1 und 2 ist jeweils diejenige Lage strich- punktiert angedeutet, in der der Ruhelage diametral gegenüber der Sitzträger 4 mit dem Sitz 5 die am stärksten angehobene Lage einnimmt.Deviating from known arrangements, the axis 7 is not fixed vertically on the base plate 2, but this is arranged inclined on it, namely radially outwards according to FIG. 1, radially inwards according to FIG. The axis 7 of the seat support 4 encloses an angle α with the vertical. At a corresponding angle fi = 90 ° - α, the seat support 4 is attached to the hub 6 with its horizontal main plane 4a. For this reason, when the seat 5 is rotated in one direction or the other out of its rest position shown in FIG. 1 (and FIG. 2), the inclination of the axle and seat support is raised accordingly; 1 and 2, that position is indicated by dash-dotted lines in which the rest position diametrically opposite the seat support 4 with the seat 5 assumes the most raised position.

Da die Nabe 6 mit dem daran befestigten Sitzträger 4 auf der Achse 7 frei drehbar ist, besteht die Neigung des Sitzträgers 4 mit dem daran befestigten Fahrgastsitz 5 (sowie gegebenenfalls einem Fahrgast) unter der Wirkung der Erdanziehungskraft (Gewicht) in die in den Figuren 1 und 2 jeweils ausgezogen dargestellte Ruhelage zurückzukehren.Since the hub 6 with the seat support 4 attached to it can be freely rotated on the axis 7, the inclination of the seat support 4 with the passenger seat 5 attached to it (and possibly a passenger) exists under the effect of the gravitational force (weight) in that shown in FIGS and 2 to return to the rest position shown in full lines.

Das gleiche gilt, wenn der Sitzträger 4 mit Hilfe der Nabe 6 um die Achse 7 frei drehbar auf einer Zwischenscheibe 9 angeordnet.ist, welche ihrerseits um eine Achse 10 auf der Bodenscheibe 2 gelagert ist. Ein nur angedeuteter Antrieb 11 dreht die Zwischenscheibe 9 um die Achse 10 und bewegt auf diese Weise den Sitzträger 4 mit dem darauf befindlichen Sitz 5 in unterschiedliche radiale Abstände von der Mittelachse 3, was zu hiervon abhängigen Bewegungen des Sitzträgers 4 mit der Nabe 6 um die Achse 7 führt.The same applies if the seat support 4 is arranged with the aid of the hub 6 to be freely rotatable about the axis 7 on an intermediate disc 9, which in turn is mounted on the base disc 2 about an axis 10. A drive 11, only indicated, rotates the intermediate disk 9 about the axis 10 and in this way moves the seat support 4 with the seat 5 thereon at different radial distances from the central axis 3, which results in movements of the seat support 4 with the hub 6 that depend on this Axis 7 leads.

In Fig. 1 ist strichpunktiert angedeutet, daß die Bodenscheibe 2 mit der Mittelachse 3 gekippt (bzw. unter Anheben gekippt) werden kann, so daß die Bodenscheibe 2 mit allen Aufbauten gegenüber ihrer ursprünglichen horizontalen Hauptebene eine schräge Lage einnimmt. Der Winkel, um den die Mittelachse 3 gegen die Lotrechte verschwenkt wird, ist in Fig. 1 mit ϕ bezeichnet. Im allgemeinen wird die Anordnung insbesondere so getroffen werden, daß der Winkel ϕ kleiner als der Neigungswinkel α der Sitzträgerachsen 7 ist.In Fig. 1 is indicated by dash-dotted lines that the bottom plate 2 can be tilted with the central axis 3 (or tilted while lifting), so that the bottom plate 2 assumes an oblique position with all its superstructures with respect to its original horizontal main plane. The angle by which the central axis 3 is pivoted against the vertical is designated by ϕ in FIG. 1. In general, the arrangement will be made so that the angle ϕ is smaller than the angle of inclination α of the seat support axes 7.

Eine zusätzliche Fahrsensation ergibt sich, wenn man die gekippte Bodenscheibe 2 wippen läßt, was mit Hilfe eines Luftbalges, der die Bodenscheibe in die gekippte Stellung hebt, unschwer (und gefedert) möglich ist.An additional driving sensation arises when the tilted base plate 2 is rocked, which is easily (and sprung) possible with the help of an air bellows that lifts the base plate into the tilted position.
