Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a ride, comprising a route and at least one chassis, which is arranged along the route movable on the route.
  • Roller coasters and simulators enjoy special popularity.
  • the vehicles of a roller coaster can be moved at high speed through a variety of exciting driving figures.
  • driving figures such as loops, corkscrews, steep climbs and slopes, as well as a speed profile adapted to it can be created with the user tension and thrill.
  • simulators a real situation can be simulated by movements of a passenger cabin.
  • the object of the present invention is to provide a ride that offers attractive and lifelike effects and gives a passenger increased tension and thrill.
  • An inventive ride includes a route and at least one along the route movably arranged chassis.
  • the ride on a mounting device for mounting a motor vehicle on the chassis, wherein the mounting device is arranged on the chassis.
  • the chassis of a roller coaster car in particular on the upper side of the chassis, a holder (possibly elastically or articulated mounted) attached to which the underside of the motor vehicle is mounted.
  • the roller coaster chassis runs on a well-known roller coaster track.
  • the vehicle mounted on the chassis is arranged on a roadway plate mounted above the chassis.
  • the mounting device and the chassis must be designed so that all forces exerted by the motor-driven vehicle during the passage of the route to the mounting device and the chassis can be safely absorbed or transmitted to the rails. Out-of-the-way flying of the motorized vehicle must be reliably prevented.
  • the motor or power-driven vehicle may in particular be a car, a truck, a motorcycle, a boat, an aircraft, etc.
  • the motor or power-driven vehicle may in particular be a car, a truck, a motorcycle, a boat, an aircraft, etc.
  • the route has at least one guide device for the guided movement of the chassis along the route.
  • the chassis is usually designed so that it is freely movable along the route (ie in one dimension), However, with regard to the other degrees of freedom is forced and in particular can not stand out from the route. In this way, it is possible that a looping can be passed through without the motorized vehicle accidentally crashes.
  • the guide device rails for rail-bound movement of the chassis along the route.
  • two parallel rails form a rail track.
  • the mounting device preferably has at least one holder for fastening the motor-driven vehicle to the holder.
  • the holder is elastically and / or hingedly connected to the chassis and / or the vehicle.
  • the ride has a deck plate for placing a vehicle on the deck plate.
  • the deck plate has at least one opening through which the holder extends.
  • the opening may be formed, for example, as a centrally disposed gap or slot extending in the longitudinal direction of the track plate for passing the holder coming from below.
  • the plate is arranged in particular along the entire route. It is fixedly installed relative to the track in the longitudinal direction, i. The vehicle moves along the carriageway slab. The vehicle travels practically on the road during the movement along the route.
  • the ride has at least one motor vehicle mounted on the holder.
  • the ride on a chassis, which is similar to a roller coaster chassis in construction.
  • the motorized vehicle is mounted on the roller coaster chassis, which serves as a passenger reception, among other things.
  • the chassis is designed so that it can safely absorb and transmit all the forces exerted on the motor vehicle and out-of-the-way flying of the motor vehicle is necessarily prevented.
  • the chassis must prevent a possible crash of the motor vehicle.
  • the bracket extends from the chassis through the opening in the deck panel toward the vehicle to connect the vehicle to the chassis.
  • the vehicle may be located on the roadway platform, i. the wheels of the vehicle are on the road.
  • the distance between the vehicle and the guide device can be changed by adjusting the height of the holder.
  • the ride on drive and / or braking means for driving or braking the chassis along the route on may be located externally (e.g., a chain drive) on the chassis and / or in the vehicle.
  • the chassis and the vehicle are driven by the motor of the motor vehicle.
  • the roller coaster chassis for example, is not driven by its own drive, the drive is made by the motor vehicle engine.
  • the arrangement may be such that the engine power is transmitted via the tires of the vehicle to the stationary against the carriage deck plate. The car is moved over the holder with the vehicle.
  • other drives e.g., friction wheels
  • the roadway in order to automatically position and move the vehicle connected to the carriage, the roadway may be lowered at certain locations so that at those locations the engine power can no longer be transferred to the deck plate to move the vehicle , That is, the wheels of the vehicle rotate at these points.
  • the deck plate is thus movable relative to the vehicle.
  • the deck plate can be lowered relative to the vehicle.
  • the track plate can also be simply deeper, ie closer to the guide device, arranged at these locations.
  • the wheels of the vehicle When entering these lowered sections, the wheels of the vehicle also turn empty.
  • additional drives that can drive the chassis be provided or act.
  • These can be conventional roller coaster drives, such as friction wheels, chain drives, linear motors, etc. This allows automatic positioning in the station.
  • the control of the movement of the vehicle is taken over by the drive of the chassis.
  • the relative movement can also be generated by lifting the vehicle by raising or extending the holder relative to the roadway.
  • the relative movement between the deck plate and the vehicle may be automatically activated at a particular time, at a particular driving position or depending on a particular driving condition, or manually (e.g., via radio) e.g. controlled by an operator. In the control alone on the chassis and disengagement of the vehicle engine or deactivation of the brakes would be possible.
  • the ride may have at least one controller for controlling the drive and / or brake means for accelerating and / or braking the chassis.
  • the vehicle may include actuating means, such as an accelerator pedal and / or a brake, operable by an occupant of the vehicle to accelerate or decelerate the chassis and the vehicle along the route.
  • actuating means such as an accelerator pedal and / or a brake, operable by an occupant of the vehicle to accelerate or decelerate the chassis and the vehicle along the route.
  • the controller may be configured so that the acceleration and / or deceleration of the vehicle can be limited. So it is conceivable to limit the amount of acceleration (positive or negative) at a certain time. It could also be the duration of the acceleration, the maximum Bescheun Trent depending on the position of the vehicle on the route, etc., specified or the action options are controlled. In particular, the controller can specify or enable a specific movement profile or a corridor for different movement profiles.
  • the ride can have a control that has external control commands for controlling the drive and / or braking means for accelerating and / or braking the chassis.
  • the controller may be located outside the vehicle.
  • the control commands can be transmitted by radio, for example.
  • the control commands control the engine or brakes of the vehicle independently of the driver's actions. It may be provided in sections that the driver controls the drive and the brakes, in other sections the control is from outside the vehicle, z. B. by a central control performed.
  • FIG. 1 shows a section of a ride according to the invention in a perspective view.
  • the ride has a rail track 1 with two rails 1a and 1b.
  • a chassis 2 can be moved.
  • the chassis 2 is designed as a carriage and has on both sides and front and rear in each case a roller group 2a, 2b, 2c and 2d (see also FIG. 2 ).
  • Each of the roller groups 2a, 2b, 2c and 2d comprises three roller pairs, which are arranged above the rail 1a, 1b, laterally on the side of the rail 1a, 1b and below the rail 1a, 1b and abut to ensure that the Carriage 2 safely and without taking off or sideways evading forced on rail track 1 can be moved along.
  • a mounting device for mounting a motor vehicle 4 is arranged on the chassis 2, a mounting device for mounting a motor vehicle 4 is arranged.
  • the mounting device has in particular a holder or flange 3, by which the chassis 2 is stably connected to the motor vehicle 4.
  • the vehicle 4 is held so stable and secure on the car 2 that the car 2 and the vehicle 4 attached thereto can drive through all the desired driving figures, for example loops, without the car 2 or the vehicle 4 lifting off the driving route. Due to the structure of the holder 3 and the carriage 2 and large forces can be absorbed by the mounting device and the carriage 2 and transmitted to the route 1 become.
  • the holder 3 may be hinged or elastically attached to the chassis 2 to a certain degree.
  • the vehicle 4 is arranged on a platform 5.
  • the platform 5 in a longitudinal direction (direction of travel) in approximately centrally extending slot 6.
  • the flange 3 protrudes from the chassis 2 through to the vehicle 4, which is symbolized in this illustration by the plate 4.
  • the movable components may be driven, for example, by the engine power of the motor vehicle 4 transmitted to the plate 5 from the wheels 4 a, 4 b of the vehicle 4 resting on the plate 5.
  • the ride can, at least at certain sections, have additional drives to position the car 2.
