Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a ride, comprising: a vehicle having a passenger seat for receiving at least one passenger; a travel path along which the vehicle is movably arranged, the travel route having a first guide element for carrying the weight of the vehicle and for holding the vehicle on the travel route, wherein the first guide element is arranged at a first distance from the passenger receptacle below the passenger receptacle.
  • Rides such as roller coasters usually have one or more rail vehicles, which are moved along a route.
  • a guide device is usually a double track, which determines the route and keeps the vehicle in a desired position.
  • different routes can be realized.
  • the publication US 6,269,750 B1 shows a rail track with two vertically stacked rails.
  • the rails or the chassis are conventional roller coaster rails or chassis, which were compared to a conventional roller coaster only rotated by 90 °.
  • the vehicles are designed as outriggers. In this way, it is possible to realize two separate routes in a single construction and thus save in particular props.
  • the object of the present invention is to propose a ride that is space-saving and inconspicuous integrated into the environment and at the same time offers greater flexibility in terms of interpretation of the route.
  • An inventive ride includes: a vehicle having at least one passenger seat for receiving at least one passenger; a travel path along which the vehicle is movably arranged, the travel route having a first guide element for carrying the weight of the vehicle and for holding the vehicle on the travel route, wherein the first guide element is arranged at a first distance from the passenger receptacle below the passenger receptacle.
  • the driving route has a second guide element for holding the vehicle relative to a lateral tilt relative to the plane formed by the first guide element and the second guide element, wherein the second guide element is arranged below the passenger seat at a second distance from the passenger seat.
  • the first guide element and the second guide element are tubular.
  • the common center of gravity of the passenger seats is arranged above the second guide element and substantially in the plane defined by the first guide element and the second guide element.
  • a second tube is used, which is either mounted directly on the other tube or spaced by means of transverse struts, but rigidly connected thereto, to prevent lateral tilting of the vehicle.
  • the tubes can be vertically offset from each other.
  • the tubes can be bent in all directions and thus allow more varied and demanding 3-dimensional routes, z. Vertical jumps (camelbacks), etc.
  • the (common) focus of the passenger seat (s) is in particular a focus of one or more unoccupied vehicle shots.
  • the center of gravity of the vehicle seats of a vehicle and the passengers intended to be picked up in the passenger seats can also be regarded as the center of gravity.
  • the passengers will be sensibly always placed so that the common center of gravity is in the plane defined by the rails.
  • the passenger seat is in this sense the seat or the seat recess in which the passenger takes a seat.
  • the center of gravity is close to the guide elements at least over the lower guide element, usually also above the upper guide element, and substantially in a plane of symmetry which is determined by the two guide elements.
  • the plane determined by the guide elements is defined such that (at least over a certain distance section) sections of the guide elements arranged in parallel span a plane.
  • the route is designed in principle as a monorail, since the first guide member carries the main load, while the second (possibly weaker trained and / or smaller sized) guide member carries little load, but primarily the orientation of the vehicle with respect to a lateral tilt (relative to a determined by the guide elements plane) depending on the distance position of the vehicle determines and controls.
  • the second guide element prevents a lateral tilting of the vehicle. Since mainly the upper guide is used to absorb weight, the guides can be designed differently according to their function.
  • the additional tube which merely serves as a guide, no guide plate is required, unlike conventional monorails.
  • Guide plates are usually mounted on the rail to prevent lateral tilting of the vehicle. However, these guide plates can be bent only in one axial direction, so that certain demanding routes can not be realized.
  • the inventively provided second tube can be attached directly to the first rail or the first tube or vertically offset by means of transverse struts arranged to this.
  • the passenger accommodation is arranged above the two guide elements (from the perspective of a passenger intentionally received in the vehicle or in the vehicle seat).
  • the center of gravity of the loaded or unloaded vehicle or the occupied or unoccupied vehicle mounts is always above, albeit as close as possible to the first and / or second guide element.
  • a seat arrangement may be provided in which at least one of the rails (first and / or second guide element) is arranged between the legs of a passenger, or at least one of the rails (first and / or second guide element) is arranged between two seats arranged side by side.
  • the guide elements are preferably arranged below one another below the vehicle seat.
  • the track can be integrated unobtrusively in the area (unlike a train with rails of two parallel tubes). It is also possible to position the passenger low. Due to the low positioning of the center of gravity, the resulting moments can be kept low, whereby the static design of the web and also for the driving feel are favorably influenced.
  • the center of gravity of the loaded and / or unloaded vehicle or the occupied or unoccupied vehicle mounts always lies above the first and / or second guide element. At the same time, the routing is flexibly interpretable, as in conventional two-track rails.
  • a transport system for a rail-bound adventure or roller coaster is created.
  • the basic idea can also be used for passenger transport systems, for example for rail-bound vehicles with battery-powered self-propelled.
  • pipe-like or solid rails can also be used in the context of the invention, as far as this makes sense from the dimensions (for example, with a second guide element with a small diameter).
  • the term "pipe” is not limited to tubes of circular cross-section, but includes tubes with all possible cross-sections, which lead to a good bendability of the tube. These are in particular cross sections without edges, z. B. round or oval cross sections. Within the scope of the invention, the term “pipe” encompasses all cross sections which are easily bendable.
  • the second distance is greater than the first distance.
  • the second distance may be smaller than the first distance.
  • the first guide element can therefore be arranged above or below the second guide element.
  • the guide elements can be arranged in a (in the basic orientation of the vehicle) vertical plane relative to or below the vehicle seat.
  • the guide elements can at a distance which exceeds the sum of the radii of the guide elements, spaced from each other z. B. connected by means of connecting elements.
  • they can also be arranged at a distance which corresponds approximately to the sum of the radii of the guide elements (ie, the guide elements are in contact, cross-section approximately as in an "8"), or at a smaller distance, so that (if the guide elements are tubular) creates an outer surface corresponding to the outer contour of two intersecting circles.
  • the passenger seat is preferably arranged above the first guide element.
  • the vehicle is formed substantially symmetrically with respect to the plane formed by the first guide element and the second guide element and arranged on the route.
  • the center of gravity is arranged in a particularly preferred embodiment in the region between the first guide element and the second guide element.
  • the vehicle may comprise an arrangement of first rollers which interact with the first guide element.
  • At least a first of the first rollers may be arranged to support at least a portion of the weight of the vehicle, and at least a second of the first rollers to hold the vehicle on the route.
  • These roles of the first group take on the task of a support rail, which supports the weight of the vehicle, prevents a lifting of the vehicle from the route, and steers the vehicle through the curves in the route. Only a lateral tilting of the vehicle about an axis which extends parallel to the direction of travel at the height of the first guide element can not prevent the group of first rollers.
  • the vehicle is in principle (i.e., when no further supporting components are provided) rotatably disposed about said axis on the first guide member.
  • first rollers is arranged such that a translational movement of the vehicle in a plane (F) perpendicular to the direction of movement (v) of the vehicle relative to the first guide element is prevented.
  • the rollers are correspondingly on the first guide member so that from different directions (in the plane F) acting translational forces are transmitted to the rail.
  • first rollers is in particular rotatably connected in a plane perpendicular to the direction of movement of the vehicle with the first guide element.
  • Monorail trains always require a support that prevents lateral tilting of the vehicle relative to the (first) guide rail. This is in conventional tracks usually a support plate, a sword, or similar.
  • these holding or guiding means connected to the first rail can not be bent as desired, so that the flexibility with regard to routing is limited.
  • the vehicle preferably comprises an arrangement of second rollers, which interact with the second guide element.
  • These roles usually prevent inadvertent lateral tilting of the vehicle in a direction perpendicular to the direction of travel plane. With a movement of the vehicle along the route, however, a location-dependent lateral tilting (relative to the horizontal normal position of the vehicle) may well be desirable in order to realize certain driving figures.
  • the two guide elements can be wound together along the track or arranged rotated against each other.
  • the rollers engage d (viewed from the reference system of the vehicle) laterally or obliquely laterally against the second guide element.
  • the vehicle may comprise at least a first carriage and / or a second carriage, wherein the first carriage and / or the second carriage each having an arrangement of first rollers and an arrangement of second rollers, which are substantially rigidly interconnected.
  • the carriages are preferably each rotatably connected to the chassis, so that the vehicle can perform cornering.
  • the at least one passenger seat is arranged on the chassis.
  • the arrangement of second rollers may cooperate with the second guide member such that rotation of the first carriage or the second carriage in a plane perpendicular to the direction of movement of the vehicle about the first guide member is prevented. This concerns the situation in which the vehicle is at a point of the route.
  • a lateral rotation of the carts in the reference system of the earth, however, can be location-dependent in a movement in the direction of travel, but the orientation (location-dependent) is precisely defined.
  • the arrangement of second rollers can cooperate with the second guide element such that a rotation of the first carriage or of the second carriage during a movement of the vehicle in the direction of movement about the first guide element is determined by the relative position of the second guide element to the first guide element.
  • the arrangement of second rollers can have on both sides of the plane defined by the first guide element and the second guide element at least one roller arranged laterally on the second guide element.
  • the wheel assembly or chassis is adapted to the particular requirements a monorail must meet in conjunction with a low rail center of gravity of the vehicle.
  • the ride preferably has a passenger seat for at least one passenger, wherein the passenger seat is formed such that the first guide element and / or the second guide member is disposed between the legs of a passenger intentionally recorded or are.
  • This makes it possible to position the passenger or the center of gravity of the loaded vehicle or the occupied or unoccupied passenger shots low, so that the resulting moments are low. This is favorable in the static design of the web and for the driving experience.
  • the passenger seat can have at least one seat for a passenger, and the passenger seat can be arranged such that the plane formed by the two drive tubes cuts the seat. The seated passenger is thus directly above the upper guide tube.
  • the ride can have at least two passenger seats for at least one passenger, wherein the passenger seat is formed such that the first guide member and / or the second guide member is disposed between the passenger seats or are.
  • the passenger seats are thus arranged (relative to the direction of travel) next to each other.
  • the passenger can thus be moved approximately at the height of the guide elements, however, the guide elements are always below the center of gravity of the vehicle.
  • the legs of two passengers who are accommodated in juxtaposed passenger receptacles, each side of at least the first Guiding element arranged.
  • the center of gravity is therefore also low in this embodiment.
  • the first guide element and the second guide element may be integrally formed as one element or designed in two or more parts.
  • the cross-section of the element is designed so that adjacent rollers always prevent translational movement of the vehicle in a plane perpendicular to the direction of movement of the vehicle and at the same time there are rollers which cause lateral tilting of the vehicle in said plane (in a given direction) Position of the vehicle along the route). Lateral tilting of the vehicle during movement along the route can be generated by turns of the element.
  • a first arrangement of rollers and a second arrangement of rollers cooperate with the element such that the arrangement of first rollers against translational movement of the vehicle in a plane perpendicular to the direction of travel of the vehicle engages the first guide element, and the arrangement of second rollers cooperates with the element such that a rotation of the first carriage or the second carriage during a movement of the vehicle in the direction of movement is determined by the degree of winding of the element.
  • the space between the first guide member and the second guide member for fittings such as cables, drive devices, brakes, vehicle control devices, etc. is used.
  • the system can be used alongside roller coasters for all kinds of transportation purposes.
  • the vehicle can be moved in different ways along the route, eg. B. by chain drives that carry the vehicle to a higher waypoint and subsequent acceleration by gravity, drive with an electric motor provided in the vehicle (possibly also energy storage), or arranged along the route drives, z. B. inductive drives ("launch" drives). All other suitable drives can be used within the scope of the invention.
