Definitions
- the invention relates to a rollover swing with a passenger gondola, which is suspended in an oscillating manner between two parallel arms, which in turn are rotatably mounted about a horizontal axis and can be driven by a motor, which is held on a base frame by means of a vertical support, the passenger seats being a short distance apart Head areas of the pendulum axis are arranged in the passenger gondola so that the direction of view of the passengers is perpendicular to the pendulum axis.
- an amusement device is known with a vertical center post which can be rotated about its vertical axis and on which two double cantilevers are mounted laterally opposite one another, each of which - on both sides of its axis of rotation - carries a gondola at its diametrical ends , in each of which two passenger seats are arranged back to back.
- Each of the (a total of four) gondolas is suspended between the one end of the double boom about a swing axis which runs near the upper back ends of the passenger seats.
- the swing axis is designed as a shaft that can be driven by an electric motor. This can also be activated by the passengers sitting in the gondola, as can a brake with which the gondola can be locked in relation to the swing axle shaft.
- This arrangement allows the individual passenger to give their gondola any angular position in relation to the boom, regardless of the position of the boom:
- the gondola is forcibly rotated about the swing axis. If the motor remains switched off but the brake is applied, the angular position of the nacelle relative to the boom is locked, and when the jib rotates, the nacelle no longer swings into its normal position, but moves with the jib in a rigid relative position to it, possibly also in one Overhead position.
- the described arrangement and individual control of the (plurality of) gondolas can only be realized with small gondolas for a maximum of two people, because otherwise the forces occurring in the worst case of coincidence would no longer be sufficiently manageable.
- DE-A-33 21 599 proposed a rollover swing with a large gondola with the aim of enabling rapid and labor-saving assembly and disassembly with an impressive driving experience.
- the latter was to be accomplished by means of telescopic supports pivoted to the base frame.
- the driving experience corresponds to that of the conventional rollover swing with a gondola suspended freely on the jibs.
- the invention aims to provide a multitude of passengers with an interesting driving experience at the same time, namely in a large gondola using the relatively simple means of the conventional rollover swing, without exposing them to excessive - albeit high - accelerations, regardless of the seating position of the individual passenger in the passenger gondola; unlike the ride on EP-B-140 238, where the gondola cannot roll over.
- the aforementioned arrangement of the passenger seats allows the reception of two rows of passengers who look in the same direction and therefore have the same driving impression when rocking and turning over the large gondola, which is the case with the back-to-back arrangement of the passenger seats according to the US-A- 2 158 073 is not the case.
- the arrangement is so made that the horizontal component of the head distance from the pendulum axis is relatively small.
- the vertical component of this distance hardly plays a role: If the passenger's head is approximately below the pendulum axis, the centrifugal force of the rollover is expressed in an uncritical compressive force on the spine.
- the horizontal distance of the rear row of seats in the direction of view can and should be greater than that of the front row, because the headrests of the rear row face the pendulum axis, i.e.
- the pendulum bearings of the passenger gondola are assigned locking devices, in particular in the form of brakes, with which the passenger gondola can be fixed in a certain angular position relative to the arms; this is known per se from US-A-2 158 073. This allows the driving cycle described below.
- each pendulum arm (the passenger nacelle) is gimbal-mounted on a shaft attached to the boom with a transverse axis to the axis of rotation and - unlike in EP-B-231 051 - by small angles to the boom is deflectable.
- the deflection angle can be limited by a prestressed, annular rubber element which is arranged on a coaxial extension of the shaft and is encompassed by the pendulum arm. The rubber element also dampens load change movements, such as occur when the passenger nacelle rolls over.
- the measure also serves to compensate for any constraints that occur that one of the brackets is divided transversely to its radial longitudinal extent and the two parts can be pivoted relative to one another to a limited extent about an axis transverse to the axis of rotation of the brackets.
- an advantageous measure for the travel operation of a rollover swing equipped for this purpose is that a water tank is provided for loading the chassis, which consists of telescopically telescoping or coaxially vertically extendable ring elements, with a flexible ring on the inner, when extended, upper ring , The ring elements in the extended state is lined container which is folded in the pushed (emptied) state.
- the receiving device for the required amount of water can be accommodated on a relatively small footprint without exceeding the permissible total height of the water tank in the travel state when the tank is emptied.
- the driving cycle mentioned above is, as described in claim 8, the result of a special method for operating a rollover swing of the present type. It is characterized in that, at the beginning of a driving cycle, the booms first move from their vertically downward position against the forward The direction of rotation is deflected by an acute angle and the pendulum arms of the passenger gondola, which continues to hang vertically, are locked in relation to the booms, so that the booms (with the passenger gondola tilted forward) are turned in the forward direction and the lock is released if - just before the boom zenith position is reached Center of gravity of the gondola has passed the vertical through the pendulum axis.
- the latter measure leads to a forward tilting of the passenger gondola previously moved into an overhead position.
- the gondola swings around its pendulum axis and is at the same time 'overhauled' by the rotating booms, so that the passenger gondola does not roll over and 'away from the stand'.
- a base frame (platform) 1 On a base frame (platform) 1, two vertical supports 2 and 3 are attached. At the upper ends of the supports 2, 3, the hubs 4 are supported by cantilevers 5, which can be driven by electric motors 6, reversible in the direction of rotation and adjustable in speed. The two drives are coupled to one another by a cardan shaft 7.
- the arms 5 have on the other side of the hubs 4 counterparts 5a, to which counterweights 9 are attached. These are preferably dimensioned such that their total weight corresponds to the total weight of the passenger gondola 10 with half the crew.
- the passenger gondola 10 is supported at the ends in the free ends of the arms 5 in a freely oscillating manner about the axis 11 extending parallel to the axis 7, by means of pendulum arms 10a, which are short in comparison with the arms 5.
- Each bearing 11a is assigned a brake, shown in FIG. 6, with which the pendulum movement of the passenger nacelle 10 can be influenced until it comes to a standstill, or a specific angular position of the pendulum arms 10a relative to the arms 5 can be locked.
- Two rows 12 of seats 13 for passengers are arranged in terraces at different heights in the passenger nacelle 10 in such a way that the rows 12 also extend parallel to the axis 7.
- the arrangement of the seats 13 in relation to the pendulum axis 11 is shown in FIG. 4.
- the seats 13 of the rear row of seats 12 - in the direction of view of the passengers - have head restraints 14 which are at about the same height as the axis 11 and in when the gondola 10 is at rest a horizontal distance of around 1 m behind it.
- the headrests 14 of the front row of seats 12, which are arranged somewhat lower, are correspondingly lower and below the pendulum axis 11, but at the same time also in front of this at a horizontal distance which is smaller than that of the other row 13.
- the overall center of gravity (line of gravity) S Ges of the gondola 10 lies under the pendulum axis 11 and thus between the rows of seats 13.
- the boom 5 on the left in FIG. 1 is divided transversely, and the two parts can be pivoted somewhat relative to one another about the axis 15, so that a disparallelism of the two booms 5 does not lead to constraining forces on the nacelle 10;
- the design of the bearings 11a described below must be taken into account.
- FIG. 5 is attached to the boom 5 (FIG. 1) so that its housing 17 forms part of the boom 5.
- This also includes the housing 18 of a braking device, which can be seen in FIG. 6 and which will be described in more detail below.
- a ball slewing ring 19 is held with its outer ring 20; its inner ring 21 is part of a hub 22 of the bearing 11 a.
- a bushing 27 is gimbally mounted on the shaft 25 by means of a spherical ring segment 26, to which the pendulum arm 10a of the nacelle 10 is fastened. In this way, each pendulum arm 10a can deflect slightly relative to the bearing 11a. Any such movement is limited and damped by an axially preloaded rubber ring 28, which is seated on a coaxial extension 29 of the shaft 25 and is enclosed on the outside by a bush 30 on the pendulum arm 10a.
- a brake drum 31 is attached, which cooperates with the brake pads 32 of a brake, which surrounds the brake drum 31 concentrically and is designated as a whole by 33.
- the brake 33 is designed in such a way that it can withstand the torque which a passenger nacelle 10 which is angled with respect to the extension arm 5 exerts even in the fully occupied state when the operating cycle described above has elapsed.
- the actuation of the brake 33 - which due to its design explained above also represents a locking device - takes place with the aid of a concentric hose 34 which can exert a radially inward force on the outside of the radially movable brake shoes 32 with the aid of compressed air.
- Fig. 7 shows outward of the support 3 a water tank designated as a whole by 35, which is omitted in Fig. 1, but to load the chassis (not shown in Fig. 7) of a travel shop indicated there with the help of the weight of water in the operating state able.
- the water tank 35 consists of four nested concentric or coaxial ring elements 36, 37, 38 and 39 with a vertical axis, which can be pushed together when the water tank 35 is empty after the connections 40 have been released.
- a container (not shown) made of a correspondingly resistant plastic film or the like, which is fastened to the upper edge of the upper ring 39 and can fold up in the lower part of the water tank 35 when it is emptied for travel operations and pushed together.
- the supports 2, 3 are articulated about the axes 7, 11 and horizontal axes so that they can be tilted against one another on the base frame 1 if the rollover swing is designed as a mobile travel business.
- the tilt axes are arranged at different heights above the base frame because they can then be stacked one above the other with the hubs 4 of the brackets 5 for transport and thus in a space-saving and transport-safe manner.
- the position a) is the starting or rest position in which the passengers enter and get out.
- the arms 5 are directed downwards, and in their radial continuation the nacelle 10 hangs underneath.
- the booms 5 are first deflected clockwise by the angle a.
- the gondola 10 still hangs vertically downward, so that its vertical main plane with the main plane of the boom 5 encloses the angle 180-a.
- the brakes 33 lock the aforementioned angular position between the arms 5 and the nacelle 10 (position b).
- the arms 5 are now rotated counterclockwise and take the locked gondola 10 with them in the unchanged relative position, so that it moves into the overhead position illustrated by image c).
- the position c) also illustrates the moment in which shortly before reaching the top dead center (zenith position) the boom 5 the center of gravity of the gondola 10 has reached the other side due to its bent position relative to the boom 5 and therefore - in the representation of c ) has already become overweight to rotate counterclockwise. At this moment, the brakes 33 are released and the locking is ended.

Abstract
Description
Die Erfindung betrifft eine Überschlagschaukel mit einer Fahrgastgondel, die zwischen zwei parallelen Auslegern pendelnd aufgehängt ist, welche ihrerseits um eine horizontal verlaufende Achse drehbar gelagert und motorisch antreibbar sind, die auf einem Grundgestell mittels einer vertikalen Stütze gehalten ist, wobei die Fahrgastsitze mit geringem Abstand ihrer Kopfbereiche von der Pendelachse so in der Fahrgastgondel angeordnet sind, daß die Blickrichtung der Fahrgäste senkrecht zur Pendelachse verläuft.The invention relates to a rollover swing with a passenger gondola, which is suspended in an oscillating manner between two parallel arms, which in turn are rotatably mounted about a horizontal axis and can be driven by a motor, which is held on a base frame by means of a vertical support, the passenger seats being a short distance apart Head areas of the pendulum axis are arranged in the passenger gondola so that the direction of view of the passengers is perpendicular to the pendulum axis.
Aus der US-A-2 158 073 ist eine Vergnügungsseinrichtung mit einem vertikalen, um seine Hochachse drehbaren Mittelpfosten bekannt, an dem seitlich einander gegenüber zwei Doppelausleger fliegend gelagert sind, die jeweils - sich beidseits ihrer Drehachse erstreckend - an ihren diametralen Enden eine Gondel tragen, in deren jeder zwei Fahrgastsitze Rücken an Rücken angeordnet sind. Jede der (insgesamt vier) Gondeln ist zwischen den einen Enden der Doppelausleger um eine Schaukelachse pendelnd aufgehängt, welche nahe den oberen Rückenenden der Fahrgastsitze verläuft. Die Schaukelachse ist als Welle ausgebildet, die von einem Elektromotor antreibbar ist. Dieser kann ebenso von den in der Gondel sitzenden Fahrgästen eingeschaltet werden wie eine Bremse, mit der die Gondel gegenüber der Schaukelachsenwelle arretierbar ist.From US-A-2 158 073 an amusement device is known with a vertical center post which can be rotated about its vertical axis and on which two double cantilevers are mounted laterally opposite one another, each of which - on both sides of its axis of rotation - carries a gondola at its diametrical ends , in each of which two passenger seats are arranged back to back. Each of the (a total of four) gondolas is suspended between the one end of the double boom about a swing axis which runs near the upper back ends of the passenger seats. The swing axis is designed as a shaft that can be driven by an electric motor. This can also be activated by the passengers sitting in the gondola, as can a brake with which the gondola can be locked in relation to the swing axle shaft.
Diese Anordnung erlaubt es dem einzelnen Fahrgast, seiner Gondel unabhängig von der Auslegerlage beliebige Winkelstellungen dem Ausleger gegenüber zu geben: Bei gleichzeitiger Betätigung von Motor und Feststell-Bremse wird die Gondel zwangsweise um die Schaukelachse gedreht. Bleibt der Motor ausgeschaltet, aber die Bremse festgestellt, so ist die Winkelstellung der Gondel zum Ausleger arretiert, und bei sich drehendem Ausleger pendelt die Gondel nicht mehr in ihre Normallage, sondern bewegt sich mit dem Ausleger in starrer Relativstellung zu diesem, gegebenenfalls auch in eine Überkopf-Stellung.This arrangement allows the individual passenger to give their gondola any angular position in relation to the boom, regardless of the position of the boom: When the motor and parking brake are operated at the same time, the gondola is forcibly rotated about the swing axis. If the motor remains switched off but the brake is applied, the angular position of the nacelle relative to the boom is locked, and when the jib rotates, the nacelle no longer swings into its normal position, but moves with the jib in a rigid relative position to it, possibly also in one Overhead position.
Weder die vom Motor bewirkte Gondeldrehung um die Schaukelachse über eine volle Kreisbahn noch die Mitnahme der festgebremsten Gondel durch den Ausleger über den oberen Totpunkt hinweg stellt bei dieser bekannten Vergnügungseinrichtung einen Überschlag-Schaukelvorgang dar. Ein solcher setzt eine freie Drehung der Gondel um die Schaukelachse voraus. Der vom Fahrgast wahrgenommene Fahreindruck ist bei einem Überschlag (abwechselnde Aufwärts-Verzögerung und Abwärts-Beschleunigung) ein ganz anderer als bei einer motorisch erzwungenen Kreisbewegung.Neither the rotation of the gondola caused by the motor about the swing axis over a full circular path, nor the entrainment of the braked gondola by the boom beyond top dead center constitutes a rollover rocking process in this known amusement device. Such a prerequisite is a free rotation of the gondola around the swing axis . The driving impression perceived by the passenger is completely different in the event of a rollover (alternating upward deceleration and downward acceleration) than in the case of a motor-driven circular movement.
Ferner läßt sich die beschriebene Anordnung und individuelle Steuerung der (Mehrzahl von) Gondeln nur mit kleinen Gondeln für höchstens zwei Personen realisieren, weil anderenfalls die im ungünstigsten Koinzidenzfall auftretenden Kräfte nicht mehr ausreichend beherrschbar wären.Furthermore, the described arrangement and individual control of the (plurality of) gondolas can only be realized with small gondolas for a maximum of two people, because otherwise the forces occurring in the worst case of coincidence would no longer be sufficiently manageable.
Die moderne Technik einschlägiger Vergnügungsanlagen geht demgegenüber dahin, Großgondeln für eine Vielzahl von Fahrgästen vorzusehen (z.B. EP-B-140 238 und 231 051). Zum einen erhöht dies die Wirtschaftlichkeit des Fahrgeschäft-Betriebs, zum anderen und vor allem stimulieren sich mehrere, den gleichen Bewegungssensationen unterworfene Personen erfahrungsgemäß gegenseitig.In contrast, the modern technology of relevant amusement facilities tends to provide large gondolas for a large number of passengers (e.g. EP-B-140 238 and 231 051). On the one hand, this increases the profitability of the ride, on the other hand, and above all, experience shows that several people who are subject to the same movement sensations stimulate each other.
Eine Überschlagschaukel mit einer Großgondel hat die DE-A-33 21 599 mit dem Ziel vorgeschlagen, bei eindrucksvollem Fahrgefühl einen raschen und arbeitssparenden Auf- und Abbau zu ermöglichen. Letzteres sollte durch teleskopierbare und am Grundgestell schwenkbar angelenkte Stützen bewerkstelligt werden. Das Fahrgefühl hingegen entspricht dem der herkömmlichen Überschlagschaukel mit einer an Auslegern frei pendelnd aufgehängten Gondel.DE-A-33 21 599 proposed a rollover swing with a large gondola with the aim of enabling rapid and labor-saving assembly and disassembly with an impressive driving experience. The latter was to be accomplished by means of telescopic supports pivoted to the base frame. The driving experience, on the other hand, corresponds to that of the conventional rollover swing with a gondola suspended freely on the jibs.
Es hat sich gezeigt, daß der mit dieser bekannten Überschlagschaukel anvisierte Fahrbetrieb (Seite 10 Mittelabsatz der DE-A-33 21 599) nicht realisierbar ist. Um Überschläge der Fahrgastgondel zu erzielen, müssen die Fahrgäste in den relativ weit unterhalb der Drehachse angeordneten Sitzreihen so hohen Beschleunigungen ausgesetzt werden, daß der Überschlagbetrieb aus medizinischer Sicht nicht verantwortbar ist.It has been shown that the driving operation envisaged with this known rollover swing (
Demgegenüber bezweckt die Erfindung, einer Vielzahl von Fahrgästen gleichzeitig, nämlich in einer Großgondel mit den relativ einfachen Mitteln der herkömmlichen Überschlagschaukel ein interessantes Fahrerlebnis zu vermitteln, ohne sie übermäßigen - wenn auch hohen - Beschleunigungen auszusetzen, und zwar unabhängig von der Sitzposition des einzelnen Fahrgastes in der Fahrgastgondel; anders als beim Fahrgeschäft der EP-B- 140 238, bei der auch kein Überschlag der Gondel möglich ist.In contrast, the invention aims to provide a multitude of passengers with an interesting driving experience at the same time, namely in a large gondola using the relatively simple means of the conventional rollover swing, without exposing them to excessive - albeit high - accelerations, regardless of the seating position of the individual passenger in the passenger gondola; unlike the ride on EP-B-140 238, where the gondola cannot roll over.
Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß durch die Merkmale von Anspruch 1 gelöst.This object is achieved by the features of
Auf diese Weise ist ein Überschlag-Schaukelbetrieb mit einer viele Fahrgäste aufnehmenden Großgondel möglich, ohne daß der Kopf/Hals-Bereich der Fahrgäste übergroßen Beschleunigungen ausgesetzt wird. Denn beim Überschlag der Fahrgastgondel addiert sich gegebenenfalls das Fliehkraftfeld der Gondeldrehung zu demjenigen der Auslegerdrehung; in der Abschwungphase tritt noch die Erdbeschleunigung hinzu. Kritisch kann sich die resultierende Gesamtbeschleunigung vor allem im Halswirbelbereich auswirken, wenn sie senkrecht zur Wirbelsäule gerichtet ist (Peitscheneffekt).In this way, a rollover swing operation with a large gondola that accommodates many passengers is possible without the head / neck region of the passengers being exposed to excessive accelerations. Because when the passenger nacelle rolls over, the centrifugal force field of the nacelle rotation may add to that of the boom rotation; In the downturn phase, gravitational acceleration also occurs. The resulting overall acceleration can have a critical effect, especially in the cervical vertebrae area, if it is directed perpendicular to the spine (whip effect).
Zugleich erlaubt die vorgenannte Anordnung der Fahrgastsitze die Aufnahme zweier Reihen von Fahrgästen, die in die gleiche Richtung blicken und deshalb denselben Fahreindruck beim Schaukeln und Überschlagen der Großgondel haben, was bei der Rücken-an-Rücken-Anordnung der Fahrgastsitze gemäß der US-A-2 158 073 nicht der Fall ist.At the same time, the aforementioned arrangement of the passenger seats allows the reception of two rows of passengers who look in the same direction and therefore have the same driving impression when rocking and turning over the large gondola, which is the case with the back-to-back arrangement of the passenger seats according to the US-A- 2 158 073 is not the case.
Unter Beachtung eines geeigneten Abstandes des Gesamtschwerpunktes der (besetzten) Gondel von der Pendelachse ist die Anordnung also so getroffen, daß die horizontale Komponente des Kopfabstandes von der Pendelachse relativ gering ist. Demgegenüber spielt die vertikale Komponente dieses Abstands kaum eine Rolle: Befindet sich der Kopf des Fahrgastes etwa unter der Pendelachse, äußert sich die Fliehkraft des Überschlags in einer unkritischen Stauchkraft auf die Wirbelsäule. Bei den terrassenförmig hintereinander angeordneten Sitzreihen kann und soll der horizontale Abstand der in Blickrichtung hinteren Sitzreihe größer als der der vorderen sein, weil die Kopfstützen der hinteren Reihe der Pendelachse zugewandt sind, die Köpfe der dort sitzenden Fahrgäste beim Überschlag also gegen die Stützen gepreßt werden, während (aus Platzgründen) die Sitze der vorderen Reihe so weit davor angeordnet sein müssen, daß die Pendelachse hinter ihren Kopfstützen liegt und Fahrgäste beim Überschlag zu einer leichten Nickbewegung (nach vorn) gezwungen werden.Taking into account a suitable distance of the overall center of gravity of the (occupied) nacelle from the pendulum axis, the arrangement is so made that the horizontal component of the head distance from the pendulum axis is relatively small. In contrast, the vertical component of this distance hardly plays a role: If the passenger's head is approximately below the pendulum axis, the centrifugal force of the rollover is expressed in an uncritical compressive force on the spine. In the rows of seats arranged one behind the other in terraces, the horizontal distance of the rear row of seats in the direction of view can and should be greater than that of the front row, because the headrests of the rear row face the pendulum axis, i.e. the heads of the passengers sitting there are pressed against the supports when they roll over. while (for reasons of space) the seats in the front row must be arranged so far in front that the pendulum axis lies behind their headrests and passengers are forced to nod slightly (forwards) when they roll over.
Vorzugsweise sind den Pendellagern der Fahrgastgondel (an den Pendelarmen) Arretierungsvorrichtungen insbesondere in Form von Bremsen zugeordnet, mit denen die Fahrgastgondel in bestimmter Winkellage zu den Auslegern diesen gegenüber fixierbar ist; dies ist aus der US-A-2 158 073 an sich bekannt. Hier erlaubt dies den unten beschriebenen Fahrzyklus.Preferably, the pendulum bearings of the passenger gondola (on the pendulum arms) are assigned locking devices, in particular in the form of brakes, with which the passenger gondola can be fixed in a certain angular position relative to the arms; this is known per se from US-A-2 158 073. This allows the driving cycle described below.
Eine andere Weiterbildung der neuen Überschlagschaukel besteht darin, daß jeder Pendelarm (der Fahrgastgondel) kardanisch auf einer am Ausleger befestigten Welle mit einer quer zur Drehachse verlaufenden Achse gehalten und - anders als gemäß der EP-B-231 051 - um kleine Winkel gegenüber dem Ausleger auslenkbar ist. Auf diese Weise wird Zwängungen in den Stützen, den Auslegern und/oder der Fahrgastgondel mit ihren Pendelarmen vorgebeugt, die aufgrund von Ungenauigkeiten bei derAufstellung insbesondere eines Reisegeschäfts vorkommen und so gut wie unvermeidbar sind. Dabei kann der Auslenkwinkel durch ein vorgespanntes, ringförmiges Gummielement begrenzt sein, welches auf einem koaxialen Fortsatz der Welle angeordnet und vom Pendelarm umfaßt ist. Das Gummielement dämpft zugleich Lastwechsel-Bewegungen, wie sie beim Überschlag der Fahrgastgondel auftreten.Another development of the new rollover swing is that each pendulum arm (the passenger nacelle) is gimbal-mounted on a shaft attached to the boom with a transverse axis to the axis of rotation and - unlike in EP-B-231 051 - by small angles to the boom is deflectable. In this way, constraints in the supports, the brackets and / or the passenger gondola with their pendulum arms are prevented, which occur due to inaccuracies in the positioning of a travel business in particular and are virtually unavoidable. The deflection angle can be limited by a prestressed, annular rubber element which is arranged on a coaxial extension of the shaft and is encompassed by the pendulum arm. The rubber element also dampens load change movements, such as occur when the passenger nacelle rolls over.
Ebenfalls dem Ausgleich möglicherweise auftretender Zwängungen dient die Maßnahme, daß einer der Ausleger quer zu seiner radialen Längserstreckung geteilt ist und die beiden Teile um eine zur Drehachse der Ausleger querverlaufende Achse gegeneinander begrenzt schwenkbar sind.The measure also serves to compensate for any constraints that occur that one of the brackets is divided transversely to its radial longitudinal extent and the two parts can be pivoted relative to one another to a limited extent about an axis transverse to the axis of rotation of the brackets.
Schließlich besteht eine vorteilhafte Maßnahme für den Reisebetrieb einer hierfür mit einem Fahrgestell ausgestatteten Überschlagschaukel darin, daß zur Belastung des Fahrgestells ein Wassertank vorgesehen ist, der aus teleskopisch ineinanderschiebbaren bzw. koaxial vertikal ausfahrbaren Ringelementen besteht, wobei am inneren, im ausgefahrenen Zustand oberen Ring ein flexibler, die Ringelemente im ausgefahrenen Zustand auskleidender Behälter befestigt ist, welcher im zusammengeschobenen (entleerten) Zustand zusammengefaltet ist. Auf diese Weise läßt sich auf relativ kleiner Grundfläche die Aufnahmevorrichtung für die erforderliche Wassermenge unterbringen, ohne die zulässige Gesamthöhe des Wassertanks im Reisezustand - wenn der Tank entleert ist - zu überschreiten.Finally, an advantageous measure for the travel operation of a rollover swing equipped for this purpose is that a water tank is provided for loading the chassis, which consists of telescopically telescoping or coaxially vertically extendable ring elements, with a flexible ring on the inner, when extended, upper ring , The ring elements in the extended state is lined container which is folded in the pushed (emptied) state. In this way, the receiving device for the required amount of water can be accommodated on a relatively small footprint without exceeding the permissible total height of the water tank in the travel state when the tank is emptied.
Der oben angesprochene Fahrzyklus ist, wie in Anspruch 8 beschrieben das Ergebnis eines besonderen Verfahrens zum Betreiben einer Überschlagschaukel der vorliegenden Art. Es zeichnet sich dadurch aus, daß zu Beginn eines Fahrzyklus' die Ausleger aus ihrer senkrecht nach unten gerichteten Stellung zunächst entgegen der Vorwärts-Drehrichtung um einen spitzen Winkel ausgelenkt und die Pendelarme der weiterhin senkrecht hängenden Fahrgastgondel gegenüber den Auslegern arretiert werden, daß hierauf die Ausleger (mit der vorwärts angekippten Fahrgastgondel) in Vorwärtsrichtung gedreht werden und die Arretierung aufgehoben wird, wenn - kurz vor Erreichen der Ausleger-Zenitstellungder Gondelschwerpunkt die Senkrechte durch die Pendelachse passiert hat. Die letztgenannte Maßnahme führt zu einem vorwärtsgerichteten Abkippen der zuvor in eine Über-Kopf-Stellung bewegten Fahrgastgondel. Die Gondel schwingt um ihre Pendelachse durch und wird zugleich von den sich weiterdrehenden Auslegern gewissermaßen 'überholt', so daß sich ohne weitere Beeinflussung und 'vom Stand weg' ein Über- schlag der Fahrgastgondel ergibt.The driving cycle mentioned above is, as described in claim 8, the result of a special method for operating a rollover swing of the present type. It is characterized in that, at the beginning of a driving cycle, the booms first move from their vertically downward position against the forward The direction of rotation is deflected by an acute angle and the pendulum arms of the passenger gondola, which continues to hang vertically, are locked in relation to the booms, so that the booms (with the passenger gondola tilted forward) are turned in the forward direction and the lock is released if - just before the boom zenith position is reached Center of gravity of the gondola has passed the vertical through the pendulum axis. The latter measure leads to a forward tilting of the passenger gondola previously moved into an overhead position. The gondola swings around its pendulum axis and is at the same time 'overhauled' by the rotating booms, so that the passenger gondola does not roll over and 'away from the stand'.
Mit derAntriebsdrehzahl der Ausleger hat man es in der Hand, den zeitlichen und räumlichen Ablauf des Überschlagvorganges zu beeinflussen, etwa derart, daß es nicht zu einem weiteren Überschlag kommt, nur zu einem zweiten Überschlag etc. Auch kann, sofern die Arretierung der Fahrgastgondel gegenüber den Auslegern mit Hilfe einer Bremse vorgenommen wird, diese zur unmittelbaren Beeinflussung des Pendelvorganges eingesetzt werden.With the drive speed of the boom, it is in your hand to influence the temporal and spatial sequence of the rollover process, for example in such a way that there is no further rollover, only a second rollover, etc. Also, provided that the passenger gondola is locked against the Booms made with the help of a brake, these are used to directly influence the pendulum process.

Auf einem Grundgestell (Podest) 1 sind zwei vertikale Stützen 2 und 3 befestigt. An den oberen Enden der Stützen 2, 3 sind die Naben 4 von Auslegern 5 gelagert, die von Elektromotoren 6 drehrichtungsumkehrbar und drehzahlregelbar angetrieben werden können. Die beiden Antriebe sind durch eine Kardanwelle 7 miteinander gekuppelt.On a base frame (platform) 1, two
Die Ausleger 5 haben auf der anderen Seite der Naben 4 Gegenstücke 5a, an denen Gegengewichte 9 befestigt sind. Diese sind vorzugsweise so bemessen, daß ihr Gesamtgewicht dem Gesamtgewicht der Fahrgastgondel 10 bei halber Besetzung entspricht.The
Die Fahrgastgondel 10 ist endseits in den freien Enden der Ausleger 5 um die sich parallel zur Achse 7 erstreckende Achse 11 frei pendelnd gelagert, und zwar mittels Pendelarmen 10a, die im Vergleich mit den Auslegern 5 kurz sind. Jedem Lager 11a ist eine - in Fig. 6 dargestellte - Bremse zugeordnet, mit der die Pendelbewegung der Fahrgastgondel 10 bis zum Stillstand beeinflußt, bzw. eine bestimmte Winkelstellung der Pendelarme 10a zu den Auslegern 5 arretiert werden kann. Zwei Reihen 12 von Sitzen 13 für Fahrgäste sind in unterschiedlicher Höhe terrassenartig in der Fahrgastgondel 10 angeordnet, und zwar derart, daß sich auch die Reihen 12 parallel zurAchse 7 erstrecken.The
Die Anordnung der Sitze 13 in bezug auf die Pendelachse 11 zeigt Fig. 4. Die Sitze 13 der - in Blickrichtung der Fahrgäste - hinteren Sitzreihe 12 haben Kopfstützen 14, die sich bei ruhender Gondel 10 etwa in der gleichen Höhe wie die Achse 11 und in einem horizontalen Abstand von rund 1 m hinter dieser befinden. Die Kopfstützen 14 der vorderen, etwas tiefer angeordneten Sitzreihe 12 liegen entsprechend tiefer und unter der Pendelachse 11, zugleich aber auch vor dieser in einem horizontalen Abstand, der kleiner ist als der bei der anderen Reihe 13. Der Gesamtschwerpunkt (Schwerlinie) SGes der Gondel 10 liegt unter der Pendelachse 11 und damit zwischen den Sitzreihen 13.The arrangement of the
Der in Fig. 1 linke Ausleger 5 ist quer geteilt, und die beiden Teile sind um die Achse 15 etwas gegeneinander schwenkbar, so daß eine Disparallelität der beiden Ausleger 5 nicht zu Zwängungskräften auf die Gondel 10 führt; ergänzend ist die nachstehend beschriebene Ausbildung der Lager 11a zu berücksichtigen.The
Mit dem Flansch 16 ist das in Fig. 5 vergrößert dargestellte Lager 11a am Ausleger 5 befestigt (Fig. 1), so daß sein Gehäuse 17 jeweils einen Teil der Ausleger5 bildet. Dazu gehört auch das - in Fig. 6 erkennbare - Gehäuse 18 einer Bremsvorrichtung, die nachstehend näher beschrieben werden wird. Im Gehäuse 17 ist eine Kugeldrehverbindung 19 mit ihrem Außenring 20 gehalten; ihr Innenring 21 ist Teil einer Nabe 22 des Lagers 11 a.5 is attached to the boom 5 (FIG. 1) so that its
Auf einer ebenfalls zur Nabe 22 gehörenden Platte 23 sind Lagerschilde 24 befestigt, welche eine Welle 25 auf der Nabe 22 halten. Auf der Welle 25 ist unter Vermittlung eines Kugelringsegments 26 eine Buchse 27 kardanisch gelagert, an der der Pendelarm 10a der Gondel 10 befestigt ist. Auf diese Weise kann sich jeder Pendelarm 10a geringfügig gegenüber dem Lager 11a auslenken. Begrenzt und gedämpft wird jede derartige Bewegung durch einen axial vorgespannten Gummiring 28, der auf einem koaxialen Fortsatz 29 der welle 25 sitzt, und außenseitig von einer Buchse 30 am Pendelarm 10a umschlossen ist.
Auf der anderen Seite der Platte 23 ist eine Bremstrommel 31 befestigt, welche mit den Bremsbelägen 32 einer die Bremstrommel 31 konzentrisch umgebenden, im ganzen mit 33 bezeichneten Bremse zusammenwirkt. Die Bremse 33 ist so ausgelegt, daß sie dem Drehmoment widerstehen kann, welches eine gegenüber dem Ausleger 5 abgewinkelte Fahrgastgondel 10 auch in vollbesetztem Zustand beim Ablauf des oben beschriebenen Betriebszyklus' ausübt. Die Betätigung der Bremse 33 - die aufgrund ihrer vorstehend erläuterten Auslegung zugleich eine Arretierungsvorrichtung darstellt - erfolgt mit Hilfe eines konzentrischen Schlauches 34, der außenseitig auf die radial beweglichen Bremsbacken 32 mit Hilfe von Druckluft eine radial einwärts gerichtete Kraft ausüben kann.On the other side of the
Fig. 7 zeigt auswärts der Stütze 3 einen im ganzen mit 35 bezeichneten Wassertank, der in Fig. 1 weggelassen ist, aber das dort angedeutete (in Fig. 7 nicht dargestellte) Fahrgestell eines Reisegeschäfts mit Hilfe des Gewichts von Wasser im Betriebszustand zu belasten in der Lage ist. Der Wassertank 35 besteht aus vier ineinandergesteckten konzentrischen bzw. koaxialen Ringelementen 36, 37, 38 und 39 mit vertikaler Achse, die bei entleertem Wassertank 35 nach unten zusammengeschoben werden können, nachdem die Anschlüsse 40 gelöst wurden. Im Innern der Elemente 39 befindet sich ein (nicht dargestellter) Behälter aus einer entsprechend widerstandsfähigen Kunststoff-Folie o. dgl., welcher am Oberrand des oberen Ringes 39 befestigt ist und sich im unteren Teil des Wassertanks 35 zusammenfalten kann, wenn dieserfür den Reisebetrieb entleert und zusammengeschoben wird.Fig. 7 shows outward of the support 3 a water tank designated as a whole by 35, which is omitted in Fig. 1, but to load the chassis (not shown in Fig. 7) of a travel shop indicated there with the help of the weight of water in the operating state able. The
Wie das Lagerauge 41 in Fig. 7 erkennen läßt, sind die Stützen 2, 3 um quer zu den Achsen 7,11 sowie horizontal verlaufende Achsen gegeneinander kippbar am Grundgestell 1 angelenkt, wenn die Überschlagschaukel als mobiles Reisegeschäft ausgebildet ist. Dabei sind die Kippachsen in unterschiedlicher Höhe über dem Grundgestell angeordnet, weil sie sich alsdann mit den Naben 4 der Ausleger 5 für den Transport übereinander und somit raumsparend sowie transportsicher ablegen lassen.As can be seen in the bearing
Fig. 9 zeigt in Phasen a) - e) den Ablauf eines Fahrzyklus' mit einer Umdrehung der Ausleger 5 sowie einem Überschlag der Gondel 10. Bei der Stellung a) handelt es sich um die Ausgangs- oder Ruhestellung, in der die Fahrgäste ein- und aussteigen können. Die Ausleger 5 sind nach unten gerichtet, und in ihrer radialen Fortsetzung hängt die Gondel 10 darunter. Bei Beginn des Fahrbetriebs werden die Ausleger 5 zunächst im Uhrzeigersinne um den Winkel a ausgelenkt. Dabei hängt die Gondel 10 nach wie vor senkrecht nach unten, so daß deren vertikale Hauptebene mit der Hauptebene der Ausleger 5 den Winkel 180-a einschließt. Wenn diese Winkelstellung erreicht es, deren Größe vorher festgelegt wurde, arretieren die Bremsen 33 die vorgenannte Winkelstellung zwischen den Auslegern 5 und der Gondel 10 (Stellung b).9 shows in phases a) - e) the course of a driving cycle with one rotation of the
Nunmehr werden die Ausleger 5 entgegen dem Uhrzeigersinn gedreht und nehmen die arretierte Gondel 10 in unveränderter Relativstellung mit, so daß diese sich in die vom Bild c) veranschaulichte Über-Kopf-Stellung bewegt. Die Stellung c) veranschaulicht zugleich den Moment, in welchem kurz vor Erreichen des oberen Totpunktes (Zenitstellung) der Ausleger 5 der Schwerpunkt der Gondel 10 infolge seiner abgeknickten Stellung gegenüber den Auslegern 5 auf deren andere Seite gelangt ist und deshalb - in der Darstellung von c) bereits ein Übergewicht zur Drehung ebenfalls entgegen dem Uhrzeigersinn erlangt hat. In diesem Moment werden die Bremsen 33 gelöst und die Arretierung beendet.The
Damit kann - wie Bild d) zeigt - die Gondel 10 abkippen und entgegen dem Uhrzeigersinn eine Drehung vollführen. Weil die Ausleger 5 sich dabei weiter drehen, unterstützen sie den Überschlag der Gondel 10, der etwa in waagerechter Lage der Ausleger 5 erfolgt, wie dies das Bild e) zeigt.This can - as Figure d) shows - tilt the
