Definitions

  • the invention relates to a public entertainment device in the manner of A c hterbahn with movable along a closed track in a suspended position passenger carriers, which are suspended on supporting rod swingably on running and FUhrungsrollen having undercarriages and is supported on them by means of a damping arrangement.
  • the rollers are guided in mutually facing and rigidly connected U-rails, between which the chassis has a ball joint for hanging, pendulous arrangement of the support rod for the passenger.
  • the U-rails are inclined according to the expected centrifugal force. Lateral forces are to be absorbed by spring-loaded guide rollers.
  • the suddenly acting centrifugal force causes the passenger carrier to swing outward beyond the state of equilibrium and then to swing back again beyond the original vertical position.
  • the passenger carrier thus oscillates around the state of equilibrium.
  • the passenger carrier can continue to swing, resonances can form. This does not guarantee safety for the passenger.
  • the invention is therefore based on the object of demonstrating a popular amusement device according to the preamble with which pendulum vibrations transverse to the direction of travel can actually be effectively reduced or avoided without exposing parts of the structure to breakage.
  • each undercarriage has a stable undercarriage frame which absorbs all centrifugal and damping forces originating from the passenger carriers and transmits them to the rail distributed over a plurality of articulated chassis groups. This creates a branching of force and an equalization of the forces, which is the reason why the components of the chassis and the supporting structure are no longer exposed to breaking loads.
  • the undercarriage groups can adjust freely to any curve or manufacturing inaccuracy of the rail without being negatively influenced by oblique centrifugal and damping forces.
  • the invention provides a pair of rockers which are pivotally mounted in the cross member and are slidably connected to the chassis yokes. Forces acting on the chassis frame from the passenger carrier are thus only transmitted with their vertical component and with a half portion each to the two chassis yokes. As a result, the guide and idler rollers are pressed evenly against their running surfaces on the rail. Conversely, pivoting movements of one yoke about the direction of travel axis via the rockers lead to an opposite pivoting movement of the other yoke. In this way, unevenness in the path is compensated for and the even contact pressure of all the rollers is maintained even when driving through curved rail sections with treads which are wound according to the centrifugal force.
  • the invention also provides damping elements other than DE-OS 23 29 423.
  • the invention provides an even more effective damping by means of hydraulic or pneumatic damping cylinders, which can be accommodated in an extremely space-saving manner if the chassis frame is designed accordingly.
  • the alternating actuation of these cylinders by means of a toothed rack, which converts a pivoting movement of the supporting linkage into a straight translatory movement, enables damping with an optimal characteristic, i.e. with the swiveling angle disproportionately increasing damping force.
  • each passenger carrier is suspended on a single chassis by itself.
  • the main joint thus only requires a rotational degree of freedom which can be converted into a one-dimensional displacement movement by means of the toothed ring / rack and pinion pairing according to the invention.
  • the invention provides a coupling rod which enables adjacent undercarriages to be coupled with three rotational degrees of freedom.
  • the coupling rod which can be pulled out to a limited extent, acts as a shock buffer by elastically absorbing tensile and pressure shocks.
  • the invention also deviates from the idea of using tubes in the rail system for guiding the running and guiding rollers. Rather, it has been shown that it is better that Guide rollers on flat, curved and inclined rails in order to be able to take up the load across the entire width of the individual roller.
  • the teaching of DE-OS 23 06 385 with the U-rails shown there is unsuitable for the application of this idea. Instead, the invention discloses an independent solution in claims 35 to 39.
  • the rail construction defined in these claims is new in itself and can also be used successfully with differently designed amusement devices.
  • the support tube which is preferably cylindrical in cross section, imparts the required strength to the rail construction and offers the possibility of hanging the rail construction hanging on cantilevers of the framework of the amusement device.
  • Such a pipe can be bent with the required special device, so that the theoretically prescribed rail guidance can surprisingly be adhered to.
  • the running and guide rails welded to this support tube have the required, flat, curved surface. Overall, this results in an inexpensive and very precisely executable rail construction, which is particularly suitable for hanging passenger carriers.
  • the invention proceeds from the previously known idea of allowing towing drives for moving the passenger carriers on mountain routes to act on the chassis.
  • the invention in claim 40 proposes a new design of the passenger carrier for hanging arrangements, according to which these have a downwardly open, have continuous channel for the arrangement of driver elements for attacking the towing device. Because of the design of the undercarriage according to the invention, no constraints arise in this arrangement, although the towing device acts on the passenger carrier at a considerable distance from the undercarriage.
  • the invention provides in another exemplary embodiment the arrangement of drive spars on the upper area of the undercarriages.
  • the drive then takes place via employed rubber rollers.
  • This has the advantage that the passengers are far away from the danger area of the drive.
  • the brake swords are arranged high above the heads of the passengers on the drive spars.
  • the brake swords have recesses into which pawls engage in the event of a power failure and prevent the trolleys in the elevator from rolling back.
  • a passenger trolley 1 is shown sketchily, which is arranged in a pendulum-suspended manner on trolleys 4 via supporting rods 2 fixed to it, which are guided over a rail construction 9, 10, 11.
  • This rail construction 9, 10, 11 is part of a closed rail system in the manner of a roller coaster. It has mountain and valley routes and curves, not shown, the inclination of which can alternate rapidly, the system being designed to overcome large differences in height and thus to generate high driving speeds with correspondingly high centrifugal forces.
  • the individual passenger truck 1 is suspended from a main joint 3 on the chassis 4 in a pendulum-free manner.
  • Each support rod 2 is assigned its own undercarriage 4.
  • the support rods 2 can be connected to one another, as in the prior art, by a linkage 40.
  • each undercarriage group 7 has four pairs of track rollers 5 and two pairs of guide rollers 6, which act on track rails 9 and guide rails 11 with a rectangular cross section according to FIG which are welded to a tubular rail support 10.
  • these rails are 9, 11 according to the expected centrifugal force inclined, following the position of the rail support 10, which is curved according to the theoretical rail axis.
  • the problem of the invention is now to keep the running and guide rollers 5, 6 adjustable despite the constantly changing rail guidance and to distribute the forces resulting from the pendulum movement of the passenger carrier 1 and their damping as evenly as possible over all the rollers 5, 6 in order to to avoid the occurrence of breaking loads.
  • the individual chassis group 7 is articulated in the chassis 4, with 8 symbolically representing a joint, the axis of which extends transversely to the rail axis and thus to the direction of travel 37. Further joint axes are shown more clearly in FIG. 2, which shows the undercarriage 4 in a constructive configuration in a top view.
  • the chassis 4 initially contains a chassis frame 12 which is formed from a longitudinal member 18 and a cross member 16.
  • the cross member 16 which is designed as a hollow box, is arranged in the center of the undercarriage 4 and connected to rotatable rockers 13 via bearings 17.
  • the rockers 13 are arranged along the direction of travel 37 and are connected to one another by cross bars 14 via joints 15 in such a way that rockers 13 and cross bars 14 can perform relative movements to one another to a certain extent under the resulting forces.
  • the pivot bearing 17 are preferably designed as a plain bearing and have an axial play, so that a Ver sliding of the articulated frame formed by rockers 13 and cross bars 14 does not lead to constraints.
  • the cross member 16 is rigidly connected to the side member 18.
  • the longitudinal beam 18 is located in the vertical plane running through the rail axis and is provided at its ends with flattened pins 29 in which there are universal joints 22 with a vertical axis of rotation.
  • the function of the universal joints 22 results from the later description of FIG. 4, with directions such as “vertical” or “horizontal” referring to the chassis 4 or the passenger truck 1 hanging from the rail construction 9, 10, 11 in the rest position.
  • the main joint 3 (see FIG. 1), which is designed as a self-aligning bearing 19 for receiving the bearing eye 20 of the support rod 2, is arranged on the longitudinal member 18 within the outer member 16.
  • the support rod 2 can accordingly oscillate transversely to the direction of travel 37 about the axis formed by the side member 18.
  • the resulting pendulum vibrations are damped by the arrangement 41 according to FIG. 3 and the resulting support forces act on the cross member 16 in the form of torques about the axis of the longitudinal member 18.
  • rollers 5, 6 are stored in roller carriers 25 (cf. also FIG. 4) 1 are rotatably suspended from yokes 23 which encompass two opposite roller carriers 25 with their rollers 5, 6 U-shaped (see FIG. 4), rotatably mounted in the universal joint 22 and with the aid of the Rollers 24 are movably guided in the rockers 13.
  • the individual chassis group 7 accordingly consists of a yoke 23 with two roller carriers 25 and the running and guide rollers 5, 6 and has three rotational degrees of freedom with the joints 8, 22.
  • the yokes 23 can twist about the vertical hinge axis 22 and can adjust to one another at an acute angle. This relative pivoting is not hindered by the guidance of the rods 24 in the rockers 13, because these rockers 13 are preferably designed as inwardly open U-profiles, on the inner leg surfaces of which the rollers 14 can execute circular movements around the joints 22.
  • the universal joints 22 are made in the form of self-aligning bearings 30 (see FIG. FIG. 4), so that the yokes 23 independently may choose when passing through turning points of curve sections also theußrichtun g axis 37, so that the curve slopes in the range of inflection points to no constraints the rollers 5,6 or their bearings can lead.
  • chassis group 7 is able to assume a skewed position deviating from the position shown in FIG. 2 on different sides.
  • the cross member 16 is shown in the section III-III shown in FIG. 2. Both on the support rod 2 and on the cross member 16 struts 26,27 are provided, between which air springs 28 designed as bellows cylinders are clamped. These air springs 28 are known components from chassis technology for large trucks and rail-bound vehicles. The pendulum oscillation about the axis 3, 19, 20 leads to the deformation of the air springs 28 with compression or relief of the air clamped therein, whereby on the one hand considerable damping and on the other hand formation of restoring forces can be generated. Valves, not shown, are connected to the air springs 28, which lead to air pressure sources and are intended to maintain the theoretically predetermined air pressure within the air springs 28.
  • the number of air springs 28 is determined according to the existing loads. Your bellows are to be arranged so that they can deform and perform damping work even when the support rods 2 swing at an angle. If you want to completely or partially prevent the creation of restoring forces, it is expedient to connect the interiors of the air springs opposite each other on both sides of the support rod 2 using pressure technology.

  • the yoke 23 can pivot about the axis of the bearing journal 31 (joint 22).
  • the long beam 18 is able to rotate about its axis with the aid of the self-aligning bearing 30 despite the journal 31.
  • the other bracket 23 need not have this self-aligning bearing if the longitudinal member 18 is rotatably mounted in the cross member 16.
  • FIG. 4 it is shown in FIG. 4 that the running and guide rails 9, 11 are stiffened with respect to the rail support 10 via gusset plates 33.
  • the running surfaces for the rollers 5 and guide rollers 6 are located on the side of these gusset plates 33.
  • Several sections of the rail supports 10 are connected to one another via flanges 32. The diameter of these flanges 32 is also such that the running surfaces of the rails 9, 11 are not impaired.
  • a support arm 38 is shown symbolically with dash-dotted lines, which acts, for example, in the region of the joints of the rail support 10 and with a not shown scaffold is connected. This gives the possibility of arranging the rail construction hanging on the scaffolding without the rollers 5, 6 of the undercarriage 4 being adversely affected thereby.
  • the individual passenger carrier 1 has on its underside a channel formation 35 which runs in the direction of travel and is open at the bottom, in which drive elements 36 shown in dash-dot and symbolic form can be arranged, which are intended for the engagement of towing devices are.
