Definitions
- the invention relates to an amusement ride according to the preamble of claim 1.
- roller coasters In amusement facilities, such as amusement parks or fairs, roller coasters are often built in which vehicles move along a rail through a three-dimensional space, the acceleration and braking movements, both in the vertical and in the horizontal direction, acting on the occupants with considerable forces which affect the occupants usually give special pleasure. Fall effects or descents at high speeds are particularly popular. As a rule, the vehicles do not have their own drive, so that they can be raised to a high starting height with the aid of a chain or wheel drive or an elevator. From there they drive back along the rail through many curves, including loops, and mountain and valley areas to their starting point.
- Water rides are also known in which floating vehicles are moved along a water-bearing route.
- the difference in height from the initial height to the final height is, however, small. This requires a great deal of effort in order to be able to circulate the water as the carrier medium.
- the pleasure of such trains is in particular that the passengers are provided with a special backdrop and that the occupants of the vehicles are often splashed with water.
- amusement rides with new effects that convey a new or more exciting driving experience.
- DE 198 16 768 discloses a lifting device for the vertical lifting of roller coaster carriages, in which the carriages are removed from a first carriageway section and transferred in the same horizontal orientation to a second elevated carriageway section, from which they continue in the same direction when they are raised.
- No. 1,883,857 specifies an inclined elevator, in which the elevator cars are held in a substantially horizontal orientation during their ascent by means of a lifting device.
- DE 20 59 104 shows a possibility of moving vehicles on an amusement track by means of a turntable in order to transfer vehicles from a first rail line to a second parallel rail line.
- DE 243407 shows a water basin through which immersed vehicles are guided.
- the invention is therefore based on the object of specifying a new amusement track for moving vehicles along a track-guided track, which enables space-saving lifting of the vehicles to a laterally offset departure height and conveys a new, more exciting driving experience.
- the invention is based on an amusement track for moving vehicles along a substantially track-guided track, with a lifting device for lifting the vehicles to an elevated descent height, from which the vehicles travel along a section of the track to a terminus.
- the lifting device has a carrying device with which the vehicles can be removed from a first section while maintaining their horizontal orientation via an inclined elevator and can be delivered to an elevated and laterally offset second section of the train, on which the vehicles can return to the starting point.
- the sections of the essentially endlessly guided web are preferably guided parallel to one another in the horizontal direction in the region of the lifting device.
- the vehicles are removed from the first section of the web by means of the carrying device and transferred to the second section of the web in an upper position by means of the inclined elevator.
- the lifting device can be arranged in a very small space without the need for a space-consuming conveyor line, such as that used as a chain conveyor in conventional roller coasters.
- the carrying device of the lifting device designed according to the invention can lift the vehicles off a first section of the track and lift them almost vertically to the starting height. The vehicle orientation is maintained in the horizontal plane. As a result of this measure, the line of sight of the occupants of the vehicles when moving toward the lifting device is the same as when moving away from the lifting device.
- the carrying device is combined with a rotating device, so that during or at the end of the lifting of the vehicles by means of the lifting device the vehicles are rotated 180 ° in a horizontal plane so that the occupants of the vehicles move along maintain their direction of view along the entire railway line.
- the track is preferably a rail track with one or two rails.
- a track with wheels and lateral guidance can also be used. It is also possible to design the track as an air cushion track or as a magnetic track similar to a Transrapid.
- the sections of the web preferably likewise run parallel to one another.
- a shifting device can be provided which shifts the vehicles from a track section to a track section lying in parallel.
- the displacement device is designed in particular as a cross conveyor. It can also be provided that a 180 ° rotation of the vehicle is carried out during the transverse conveyance in order to be able to maintain the viewing direction of the vehicle while traveling on the train.
- the railway sections in particular run parallel to one another, but they pass through crests and valleys in the vertical direction in order to make the journey more exciting.
- a partial area of a section of the track is designed such that the track is guided through a water basin. This can cause special splash or splash effects. These can be particularly strong if the basin is immediately adjacent to the section of the railway section that begins as a steep slope at the elevated descent.
- the spray effect can be increased even further by providing the basin with water channels through which water is led to spray nozzles by the vehicle pressure or by additional hydraulic pumps as the vehicle passes through the basin, which can cause large fountains.
- an amusement track can be developed with it, which combines a combination of fun effects of a normal roller coaster with effects of a water rink.
- FIG. 5 shows a cross section through a track section in the region of a water basin.
- the entertainment track shown in FIG. 1 is formed from a first track section 2 and a second track section 3, on which vehicles 8 can be moved.
- the beginning of the path 11 and the end of the path 12 are parallel to one another in a building 1 and are assigned to the entrances and exits of the path.
- the entire amusement park is secured by a site boundary 4, with only the entrances 5 and 6 being kept clear.
- a vehicle that travels from the beginning of the path 11 along the first path section 2 arrives at the end of the first path section to the lower delivery area 9, from which it is raised to an upper receiving area 10 by means of a lifting device which is arranged on a tower 7. Since the lifting device as Inclined conveyor is designed with an incline between 30 ° and 85 °, the vehicle 8 is laterally displaced when it is lifted, so that it arrives at the upper receiving area n in the direction of the second track section 3. The vehicle 8 can then travel from the upper receiving area 10 along the second track section 3 to the track end 12, the vehicle traveling along the track section through a water basin 13 and spraying considerable amounts of water in the process.
- Fig. 2 shows the web section 3 in side view.
- a vehicle 20 that has arrived there arrives from the upper receiving area 10 via the very steeply designed partial area 19 to the lowest point 23 of the track.
- the partial area 19 can be designed so steep that the occupants of the vehicle experience the feeling of an almost free fall.
- a water basin 13 is formed in the area of the lowest point 23, which is essentially at the level of the bottom 21.
- the figure shows a vehicle 18 which has just left the lowest point 23 in the area of the water basin. As the vehicle has descended from a great height, it has reached a considerable speed and can thus travel along the second track section to the elevated track end 12 without requiring the vehicle to be driven independently. Due to the increased arrangement of the web end, part of the falling energy of the vehicle can be recovered.
- the track section 3 is raised in the usual way via supports 14 to 17.
- Fig. 3 shows a lifting device for lifting a vehicle.
- the lifting device is constructed on a tower 7 and contains an inclined elevator 24 guided along a rail, via which a carrying device 25 can lift a fan 22 from the lower delivery area of the first track section to the upper receiving area of the second track section.
- the drive takes place by means of a cable pull arranged at the lower end of the tower 7 Drive motor 28 and the deflecting rollers 27 and 29 arranged at the upper end of the tower 7.
- a counterweight 30 is provided, which is attached to the end of the pull rope guided over the deflecting roller 29.
- the lifting device is built on a foundation 26. Since no horizontal forces can be compensated, the tower is relatively easy to support.
- the support device is lowered so that the vehicle 22 can drive directly onto the support device from the lower delivery area 9.
- the vehicle is automatically secured in the horizontal plane.
- the lifting device can now be actuated so that the vehicle can be raised to the upper receiving area.
- the vehicle is locked there and the vehicle immediately drives onto the second rail section. Due to the inclined position of the lifting device, the track sections can be built parallel to each other without offset.
- the entire web consists only of web sections, which are each formed in a single vertical plane.
- side struts can essentially be dispensed with, so that the construction of the amusement track is possible in a very small space.
- the lifting device can contain a carrying device 25, which in turn has a turntable, with the aid of which vehicles can be rotated in a horizontal plane during or at the end of the driveway. This makes it possible to rotate the vehicle's direction of view by 180 ° while lifting.
- the inclined elevator can also run through a 180 ° semicircle during the ascent, in that the rail guide describes a semicircle in the horizontal direction during the ascent.
- the inclined elevator is designed like a paternoster by using a lifting device with two or more coupled carrying devices. The carrying devices either travel on parallel rails along the inclined conveyor or a single guide rail with a possibility of evasion is used, so that ascending and descending supporting devices can dodge each other. This can also significantly increase the production capacity.
- FIG. 4 shows a building 1 which contains the entry and exit areas of the train.
- Passengers reach the entry platform 34 via the entrances 5 and 6 (see FIGS. 1 and 2). From the platform 34, the passengers can get into a vehicle that is located at the start of the path 11 of the first path section. After the end of the journey, the vehicle reaches the end of the path 12, which is parallel to the start of the path 11. The passengers step onto platform 35, from which they can leave building 1 via exit 33.
- the vehicles are changed over from the first to the second track section by means of a cross conveyor, not shown.
- this can also contain a turntable for rotating the vehicle through 180 °.
- the cross conveyor can also reach a further position in which the vehicles can be transferred to a warehouse 36 for parking or repair.
- FIG. 5 shows a cross-sectional view through the second track section in the region of the lowest point 23.
- the water level 39 can be adjusted depending on the season and your wishes.
- control of the amusement track is set up such that while a vehicle 38 is being driven through, a vehicle 37 is simultaneously on the parallel track section, it can be achieved that a portion of the sprayed water splashes on the occupants of the vehicle 37. If this is not desired, a, in particular transparent, wall can also be stretched between the road sections, against which the sprayed-on water of the vehicle 38 can splash with loud noise.
- the vehicles can be designed in a suitable manner.
- One or more rows of seats are preferably attached to a surfboard-like chassis.
- the vehicles In order to make driving pleasure particularly eventful, it is preferred that the vehicles have only one row of seats in the transverse direction.
- they can be equipped with a possibly removable transparent roof.
- the amusement rink can be used all year round, which is not the case with conventional water rides. If there is a risk of frost, the water basin can be kept frost-free by heating.
- the water in the water basin is used only to create an amusement effect. It is not necessary to brake the vehicle, which has come down from a great height. By following the basin vehicle brake or line brake can be brought to a definitive standstill at the end of the runway.
