Description

[Detailed description of the invention] (Field of industrial application) The present invention relates to a slide that also serves as an observation deck, which is a type of leisure equipment installed in amusement parks, parks, athletic fields, etc.

In particular, we aim to make the slide available for all seasons.In the summer, water flows down from above onto the sliding surface of the slide, and people riding on the water stream enjoy the real thrill of sliding down a waterfall.In the winter, we use a dry slide that doubles as an observation deck. To provide a slide with an observation deck that can be used as a slide, has a spiral structure with an observation platform in consideration of safety, and has a closed type with a circular cross-section for the runway, and has a robust observation deck support.

(Prior art and its problems) Pools equipped with large observation decks with built-in elevating equipment such as elevators and flowing water slides are well known as part of the facilities of leisure lands and amusement parks.

By the way, these observation decks and slides are usually constructed individually. Therefore, when constructing these facilities, there are problems in that a large site is required and the construction cost is high.

In addition, since each of the individually installed structures is functionally simple, for example, in the case of an observation deck, after climbing to a high place and enjoying the view of the surrounding area, it is difficult to go up and down again. There is the simplicity of having to climb down the equipment.

In addition, when it comes to running water slides, conventional running water slides are simply U-shaped groove-shaped open slides that allow water to flow from above, and the course is from top to bottom. It is extremely simple, consisting of a straight course and a spiral course with the same slope. Therefore, for the users, they only feel the thrill of the moment, but it is not enough to provide a leisure effect that includes the overall thrill.

Furthermore, the flowing water slide combined with the pool has the disadvantage that it is only useful in the summer, and cannot be used in the winter.

In any case, in the case of individually constructed facilities as in the past, there are drawbacks to the capital investment effect due to the size of the facility and the expected cashier effect from the functional aspect.

Furthermore, even if an observation deck structure was simply added to the slide, sliders and observers would tend to accumulate in high positions and become crowded, causing problems with the structural strength of the observation deck tower and the safe passage of users.

(Purpose of the invention) The present invention organically combines the observation deck and slide, which have traditionally been constructed separately, to expand the robustness and functionality of a compact facility, and to create a running water system. The purpose is to provide a slide with an observation deck that is structured so that it can be effectively used as a dry-type, all-season leisure facility that can be used in summer and winter, increasing the investment effect of the facility, and enhancing the leisure effect of the facility. It is.

(Means for solving problems) The configuration of the means will be explained below.

First, the observation room is held at the top of the tower with a double pipe structure consisting of an inner pipe that penetrates the spherical observation room and an outer pipe that houses the lifting equipment, and the observation room is connected to the outer circumference of the upper part of the tower below the observation room. An observatory was created by creating a landing. In addition, a slider with a circular cross-section, with a water outlet from the water supply system placed on the upper entrance side and a slope that becomes gentler toward the bottom, is installed in a spiral shape along the outer periphery of the tower, from the landing to the pool that can be converted into a sandbox. It has a structure that organically combines a platform and a slider that can be used in all seasons.

(Example) Further, examples will be specifically described using figures.

Figure 1 is shown to explain the overall structure of the proposed facility, which combines an observation deck and a slide. 1 is a tower that is the main pillar of the observation deck, and
As shown in the figure, it has a double structure made of steel pipes.

2 is the observation deck floor installed at the top of the tower 1. The observation floor 2 is a roofed observation floor with a dome-shaped roof 3, and has a spherical exterior that is resistant to strong winds. Hereinafter, the observation floor 2 including the roof will be collectively referred to as the observation room 4.

In addition, the lifting equipment includes the inner and outer tubes 1a of the tower 1, which are the main pillars of the double-pipe structure of the inner tube 1a that penetrates and holds the observation room 4 and the outer tube 1b that supports the lower part of the observation room 4.
It is constructed by incorporating a spiral staircase between 1b and 1b, and communicates with the observation room 4.

13 is a landing provided on the outer periphery of the upper part of the tower 1 below the observation room 4 so as to communicate with the observation room 4.

5 is a slider with a circular cross section that is spirally wound around the outer periphery of the tower 1. As shown in FIG. 1, this slider 5 is constructed by winding two sliders 5 having a circular cross section with a phase difference between the landing 13 communicating with the observation floor 2 at the top of the tower 1 and the ground. Multiple sliders 5
It is formed by assembling.

Reference numeral 6 denotes a water supply device for supplying water from the upper inlet side IN of the slider 5 with a circular cross section, which is mainly composed of a pump, and its discharge side is as described below.
If the slider 5 is located on the inlet side IN of the slider 5 with a circular cross section and the water supply device 6 is driven, water can be supplied into the slider 5 at appropriate times.

7 is a discharge pipe connected to the water supply device 6, and 8 is a suction pipe.

In addition, on the suction pipe 8 side, there is a so-called pool 9 provided at the lower outlet side OUT of the slider 5 with a circular cross section.
This pool 9 is used as a water tank, and the structure is such that water can be fed into the slider 5 with a circular cross section using a water supply device 6 in a circulating manner.

Furthermore, this water supply device 6 is configured to be a system that can be operated selectively depending on the season, and is mainly used as a running water slide by supplying water only in the summer.

In winter, the water supply operation is stopped and the slider 5 with a circular cross section is used as a mere dry slide. In this case, that is, during the winter when the water supply device 6 is not operating, the pool 9 is converted into a sand pit so that skiers can use it without any trouble.

Next, in FIG. 1 to explain the embodiment, a slider 5 with a circular cross section is wound around the tower 1 in a spiral shape with the same inclination angle, but when it slides on a dry slide with a uniform slope by flowing water, it goes to the bottom. The lower the slope, the lower the slope, the slower the slope, and the lower it is, the lower the slope is, the lower it is, the lower it is, the lower it is, the lower it is, the lower the slope angle, and the tower is assembled into tower 1 so that it looks like a spiral when viewed from the top. It is relaxing. In other words, the descending speed at the exit side OUT becomes slower,
Users can safely slide down either dry or running water.

Note that the discharge pipe 7 of the water supply device 6 has its opening 1
0 may simply be made to look into the upper inlet side IN of each slider with a circular cross section 5, but in addition, a water sprinkling pipe 11 may be connected to the opening of the discharge pipe 7 as shown in FIG. If the piping is installed along the ceiling of the slider 5, water will be discharged from the ceiling of the slider 5 with a circular cross section in a sprinkling manner, so a special leisure effect can be expected as will be described later.

The slider 5 with a circular cross section is made of FRP, and is composed of a duct with a circular cross section molded from a synthetic resin reinforced with so-called glass fibers.

Further, the slider 5 having a circular cross section is spirally wound around the tower 1 by means of supporting arms 12 extending radially from the tower 1 and fixed to the supporting arms 12 using clamp fittings.

(Operations and Effects of the Invention) As is clear from the above explanation, the present invention extends the spherical observation room from the landing of the observation deck held at the top of the tower with a double pipe structure to the upper entrance of the pool that can be converted into a sandbox. A slider with a circular cross section with a water outlet from the water supply system on the side and a slope that becomes gentler toward the bottom.In other words, the slide is wound in a spiral shape, organically creating a slide and observation deck that can be used both dry and flowing. Because it has a composite structure, as will be explained below, it exhibits features and advantages that have not been seen in the past, such as an investment effect as a tiller facility and a tiller effect.

1 By operating the water supply device and selecting a pool that can be converted into a sandbox at the exit of the slide, the slider 5, which has a circular cross section with a gradual slope toward the bottom, can be used as a running water slide in the summer and as a dry slide in the winter. Even in the flowing water ceremony,
Even in dry conditions, safe skiing speeds can be used in all seasons. Therefore, it is possible to improve the effectiveness of equipment usage.

Especially in the summer, when using a running water slider,
If water is discharged from the water sprinkling pipe 11 that runs along the ceiling of the slider 5 with a circular cross section, the slider will be able to slide down the slide while passing through the spray water, which is different from the conventional open water type slider. It can give you a thrilling feeling.

In winter, it can of course be used as the dry slide mentioned above, but since the structure of the slide itself has a circular cross section and is a closed type, it can also be used on cold windy days in winter.

2 A spherical observation room is held at the top of the tower with a double-tube structure consisting of an inner tube and an outer tube, making it a safe structure with a stable exterior that is resistant to strong winds and earthquakes due to the combination of a cylinder and a sphere. Furthermore, the structure will have an excellent appearance as a leisure facility.
In addition, there is a landing at the top of the tower below the observation room that connects to the observation room and leads to the slide, so viewers and players will not be crowded and will enjoy an unobstructed view and safe skiing in all seasons. You can enjoy each of them.

3 Furthermore, since the observation deck and the slide that can be used in all seasons are organically combined, the economic efficiency and utilization efficiency of the land required for facility construction will be greatly improved.

In this case, by assembling multiple slides, the slide will be able to absorb enough users to slide down the observation deck and the landing, thereby reducing damage caused by waiting in line. The usage efficiency is further increased.

4. The slide is not a straight line, but consists of a spiral path with a circular cross section.
The slider can fully enjoy the thrill of the slide, and in addition, since the slide, that is, the slider is a closed type with a circular cross section, there is no fear of falling off the slide, and the slider can slide down with peace of mind.

Furthermore, since the slider has a circular cross section and is made of FRP, the surface is smooth and slippery, and the inside is translucent and bright, so it does not cause any sense of anxiety to the skiers. In addition, the entire structure is lightweight, does not rust, and is highly durable.

As explained above, this invention combines an observation deck and a slide in a very rational way, so you can safely enjoy the view and downhill all year round.
It is possible to more effectively demonstrate the functionality as a leisure facility.
