PURPOSE:To prevent the wetting of a body at the time of sliding and to play even with one's clothes on by composing a decelerating part of a part to decelerate a sliding down body and another part to stop the sliding down body, composing the part to decelerate the sliding down body so that its sliding surface can be approximately horizontal, and a groove can be formed on the sliding surface, and composing the part to stop the sliding down body so that the position of its sliding part can be lower than that of a water surface. CONSTITUTION:For a decelerating part 2, a part A to link to the end edge of a sliding down part 1 at a start edge side has a shape approximately the same as that of the end edge, and the part A is formed so that it can be connected with the sliding down part 1 in a body. A part B to decelerate an intermediate sliding down body 3 is formed so that it has little or no inclination in a direction from its start edge side to its end edge side, and it never adds acceleration to the sliding down body 3. Further, a sliding surface 4 of the decelerating part 2 is formed into a shape close to a flat surface, and moreover, two or one groove 6 is formed on either the both sides or the center of the sliding surface 4, much of the water flowing down from the sliding down part 1 is poured into the groove 6, the water on the sliding surface 4 is minimized, the sliding down body is prevented from setting up spray on this sliding surface 4, and moderate frictional resistance occurs between the sliding surface 4 and the sliding down body 3.

Description

Detailed Description of the Invention (Industrial Application Field) The present invention relates to a waterslide using a sliding body, and particularly relates to a water slide that smoothly decelerates and stops the sliding body at the end of the slide. This is a characteristic feature.

(Prior Art) A water slide is a type of slide in which water is flowed down a moderately sloped 8i6 slide to create a water flow, and the water slides down the slide surface along with the water flow. In this water slide, water acts as a lubricant, extremely reducing the frictional resistance on the sliding surface, and at the same time reducing the amount of frictional heat generated, and immediately absorbing the generated frictional heat. For this reason, water slides can have a running path that is several tens of meters long or even longer, and the speed of the slide can be increased, providing a sense of speed and thrill.

(Problems with the prior art) Conventional water slides were used as accessory play equipment for playing in water at ponds, pools, etc. The end of the slide faced the water surface, and when you slid down the slide, you were directly in the water. It's about to break in. Therefore, in addition to the sense of speed and thrill mentioned above, the interest in playing is heightened, but on the other hand, only those wearing swimsuits can play with this play equipment because their bodies are submerged in water. Moreover, it has the disadvantage that its usefulness is low because the period is limited to the hot darkness of summer.

For this reason, there has long been a need for measures to prevent the body from getting wet when sliding down, to allow people to play even with their clothes on, and to make it possible to use water slides regardless of the season. was.

(Means for solving the problem of peaks) The present invention has been made in view of the above-mentioned points, and provides a water slide that uses a soft boat-like sliding body such as a rubber boat, in addition to the normal sliding method. By extending the end of the downhill path and gently slowing down and stopping the downhill vehicle in this part, and eliminating the possibility of the downhill vehicle capsizing in this part, the company discovered that it was possible to take off clothes. It was designed so that you could still slide down the slope.

(Implementation fIA) Hereinafter, the present invention will be specifically described based on illustrated embodiments.

The figure shows an outline of the downhill course, and the reference numeral 1 in the figure is the downhill section;
2 is a speed reduction section.

The downhill slide M1 is similar to the downhill path of a normal waterslide. That is, the downhill section 1 has a power of 900 to 1200w.
It is shaped like a gutter with a width of +■, and is installed with the end facing the water surface of a pond or pool. Although not shown in the drawings, water is flowing on the downhill surface of the downhill section 1, and people and downhill skier #-3 slide down the downhill surface along with this water flow.

A deceleration part 2 is connected to the end of the downhill part 1.

This deceleration section 2 prevents the person or the downhill body 3 that slides down the downhill section 1 from rushing into the water from the end thereof, and also decelerates and stops the downhill section at this portion. In particular, the deceleration unit 2 slows down and stops the downhill body 3 slowly, so that when the downhill body 3 is decelerated, it does not give an unnecessary shock to the person who is going down the downhill,
It is designed so that it will not get splashed with water.

Although there are no particular limitations on the shape or structure of the speed reducer 2,
The downhill surface is continuous with the downhill surface of the downhill section 1, so that a person or a sliding body 3 sliding down the downhill section 1 can smoothly transfer from the end of the downhill section 1 directly to the deceleration section 2. The downhill body 3 must be smoothly decelerated without splashing water on the person riding on the downhill body 3, and when the downhill body 3 has stopped, the attitude of the downhill body 3 should be stable and the person can get off easily. It is necessary to be able to do the following.

Therefore, the part A of the deceleration part 2 that connects with the end of the sliding part 1 on the starting end side has the same shape as this, so that it can be connected to the sliding part 1 as a pair.

The portion B that decelerates the intermediate sliding body 3 has little or no inclination angle from the starting end side to the terminal end side, so that no acceleration is applied to the sliding body 3. The sliding surface 4 is formed into a nearly flat shape,
Further, grooves 6 are formed on both sides or in the center, and most of the water flowing down from the sliding section 1 is poured into these grooves 6, reducing the amount of water on the sliding surface 4 so that the sliding body can splash on this surface. It is designed to prevent the slider from raising the sliding body 3 and to generate an appropriate amount of frictional resistance between the sliding body 3 and the sliding body 3.

In addition, the width of this intermediate portion B gradually becomes narrower from the starting end side toward the ending end, and the width of the sliding body 3 (700 to 1000
(-), thereby stabilizing the posture of the sliding body 3.

The stopping portion C of the sliding body 3 on the terminal side is the place where the sliding body 3, which has been decelerated to such an extent that it does not splash water at the intermediate portion, is stopped and the sliding body 3 is dismounted. Therefore, since the sliding body 3 is sufficiently decelerated in this part C and because it is necessary to move the sliding body 3 after use and remove it from this part C, the sliding surface 4 is positioned below the water surface W. It is preferable that the sliding body 3 floats on the water surface W.
In this part C, the person stands up to get off the slide 3, so the slide surface 4 is positioned at a depth that allows the bottom of the slide to lightly touch when a person is riding on the slide 3, so that the person can stand up. It is preferable to avoid overturning at times.

In addition, in this part C, both side surfaces 5 are also formed as low as 200 to 400 m, so that getting off the slide 3 is not hindered.

By the way, the sliding body 3 is not particularly limited in shape or structure, but it is a boat-like vehicle, and from the viewpoint of storage and handling, it is lightweight, and in particular, its bottom is flexible like a rubber boat. It is important that it has a gender.

That is, by forming the downhill body 3 in this way, the bottom surface of the downhill body 3 adapts to the shape of the downhill surface, so that water flowing on the downhill surface is trapped between the downhill surface and the bottom surface of the downhill body 3. It acts effectively as a lubricant.

(Effects) As detailed above, the present invention replaces the downhill path of a water chute with the downhill path (downhill section 1) of a conventional waterslide.
The deceleration part 2 is connected to the deceleration part 2 to stop a person or a sliding body 3 on the downhill road.
The sliding surface 4 of the intermediate portion B is made very horizontal, and grooves 6 are formed on both sides or in the center so that most of the water flowing down the runway flows into these grooves 6, so that the sliding surface As the amount of water on the surface 4 decreases, appropriate frictional resistance is generated between this surface 4 and the bottom surface of the sliding body 3, and the sliding body 3 is gently decelerated and stopped without making any splashes.

Therefore, there is no risk of the person riding on the downhill body 3 getting wet, and it is now possible to ski downhill even with clothes on, so the amount of use is significantly increased.

By the way, if you remove the deceleration part 2, this waterslide will be the same as the conventional one, but you can still slide down the slide in a swimsuit, and you will not plunge into the water at the end, so it is not suitable for people who are not good at swimming. It has the advantage that it can also be used.
