Definitions

  • the invention relates to a carousel with a lower turntable rotatably mounted about a vertical base axis, on which booms which extend in approximately the radial direction and have passenger carriers are pivotally mounted about horizontal axes and are articulated via radial tie rods to an upper turntable. which can be moved by motor from a lower position approximately coinciding with the basic axis into a raised, laterally offset and inclined upper position.
  • Carousels of this type are known from DE-A-16 03 173 and DE-A-22 06 339.
  • the slewing ring on which the tie rods are articulated is first raised in a direction coinciding with the main axis and then moved eccentrically to the basic axis in the horizontal direction with the aid of an additional gear.
  • the upper swivel head is guided in a height-adjustable manner along a sloping column.
  • the purpose of these measures is to have the passenger carriers located at the ends of the passenger booms perform a mountain and valley curve movement during the rotation of the carousel.
  • a condition predetermined in terms of use must be met, according to which all the passenger carriers must be climbed in the basic position of the carousel at the same time.
  • the result of this condition is that the upper slewing ring must be moved to the raised position before the carousel begins to rotate, thereby preventing the passenger carrier from being in a lower position than that required for boarding when passing through the valley of the mountains and valleys -Curve train can.
  • the invention is therefore based on the object of developing a carousel which, on the one hand, enables the simultaneous ascent and movement of the passenger carriers in the sense of a rotation and an ascent and descent, and on the other hand is made simpler in terms of kinematics and the expenditure on transmission technology.
  • the essence of the invention is that the upper slewing ring is supported and rotatably supported by a pivot frame which extends approximately horizontally and radially from the basic axis, the pivot bearing of which is mounted on a lateral arm around the basic axis rotatably driven hub is arranged in the vicinity of the drawbar linkage on the passenger boom, and that a lifting motor acting on the swivel frame is supported on the hub.
  • the object of the invention thus does not require a curved column as a guide element and simplifies the complicated kinematic problems in that the upper swivel head is mounted in a swivel frame, the swivel bearing of which is able to easily absorb the pulsating forces acting on the swivel head. This brings about considerable simplifications in terms of transmission technology and prevents complicated construction work.
  • EP-A-0 283 872 which has not been published beforehand, has disclosed a prior art to be dealt with under Article 54 (3) EPC which contains some features of the invention. Thereafter, two turntables rotating about the same vertical axis are also arranged one above the other, one of which supports the booms in an articulated manner and the other is articulated to the booms via radial tie rods. In the invention, however, the turntable carrying the boom is in a lower position near the ground, which is the reverse in the earlier application.
  • the important feature of the invention according to which the pivot bearing of the pivot frame carrying the upper slewing ring should lie in the vicinity of the drawbar linkage to the passenger boom, is not realized in the subject of EP-A-0 283 872.
  • the carousel according to the invention can be easily converted from the operating position into a transport position without having to remove heavy-weight components.
  • the carousel has a stationary base frame (1) on which a lower turntable (2) is rotatably mounted about the base axis (25) and is driven by a motor. Since the motorized drive can be arranged like conventional carousels, it is not shown in detail.
  • passenger booms (3) On the lower slewing ring (2) there are several horizontal axes (4), on which passenger booms (3) are pivoted so that these passenger booms (3) can be pivoted up and down in an approximately vertical plane.
  • passenger booms (3) carry passenger carriers (5), which are shown as missiles, but can be designed as desired, which hang on support rods (6) and are mounted on a turnstile (7).
  • This turnstile (7) is in turn suspended in the bearing (8) on the passenger boom (3) so that it can rotate about an approximately vertical axis and is driven by a motor drive (9).
  • Each passenger boom (3) is articulated via a tie rod (10) to an upper slewing ring (11).
  • the boom-side articulation axis (12) is arranged slightly lower than the articulation axis (12 ') assigned to the upper slewing ring (11).
  • Such a measure is particularly important from a static point of view with regard to the derivation and absorption of forces.
  • the lower slewing ring (2) is significantly relieved in terms of its bearing force on the base frame (1). This slewing ring (2) can even have an upward resultant of the forces acting on it.
  • the upper slewing ring (11), on which the tie rods (10) are articulated, is mounted on a swivel frame (13) which is movably guided around the swivel bearing (15) on a bracket (14) of the hub (16).
  • This hub (16) can be rotated about the basic axis (25) by a motor drive, also not shown, preferably in the opposite direction to the lower turntable (2). The location of the pivot bearing (15) thus moves.
  • this motor drive consists of a support (19) which is connected to the hub (16) and of a lifting motor (18) which is connected in an articulated manner to the support (19) and the swivel frame (13).
  • the lifting motor (18) can also be supported in the base frame (1). Then, however, gimbal or ball joint guides are required, which are able to take up the swivel frame (13) and to rotate it.
  • the passenger boom (3) and the swivel frame (13) or boom (14) must not interfere with one another during their rotational movement.
  • the passenger boom (3) is designed as a type of three-legged lever, the middle leg (20) of which supports the articulation axis (12) for the individual pull rod (10).
  • This middle leg (20) is curved like a nose. It engages around the swivel bearing (15) of the swivel frame (13) or the boom (14).
  • Such a measure is therefore useful to bring the articulation axis (12 ') of the tie rod (10) in the vicinity of the pivot bearing (15), because this measure guarantees that the moving passenger carrier (5) is not a lower or significantly lower position as in the rest position shown in FIG. 1 for the purpose of climbing. This also gives the possibility of rotating the carousel at the same time as the Height adjustment of the upper slewing ring (11) and thus the passenger carrier (5).
  • FIGS. 3 and 4 show, the passenger boom (3) as well as the turntables (2, 11) and the tie rods (10) as well as the swivel frame (13) and the boom (14) with the hub (16) need to be removed to change the carousel according to the invention from the operating position to a transport position.
  • Both the passenger boom (3) and the tie rods (10) are attached to their turntables (2, 11) with the aid of several screws (21), the number and size of which depends on static considerations. However, one of these screws (21) is arranged in such a position that it remains in its position while the other screws (21) are loosened.
  • a pivot axis (22) is thus formed, which enables the pivoting of the passenger boom (3) and the tie rods (10) in a position recognizable from FIG. 4.
  • the passenger booms (3) are shown lying approximately parallel to one another on a transport trolley (24), it being evident that these passenger booms (3) hardly exceed the length of the transport trolley (24) and also within the lateral contour this trolley (24) are.
  • Suitable connecting means (23) are provided so that the passenger boom (3) and the tie rods (10) cannot move relative to one another in this transport position according to FIGS. 3 and 4.
