Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Industrial field of application] The present invention is provided, for example, at an amusement park, an exhibition hall, etc., for transporting people or luggage, or for sightseeing.
The present invention relates to a loop-shaped waterborne transport device.

[Prior Art and Its Problems] Conventionally, in this type of above-water transportation device, a method is used in which water is caused to flow into an annular water groove from a high place by using a pump, and a boat-shaped transportation boat is advanced based on the flow velocity. It was

However, this conventional method has a drawback that the moving speed of the transport boat gradually decreases because the flow velocity gradually decreases as the transport boat moves.

[Object of the Invention] An object of the present invention is to provide a water carrier which is capable of moving in an annular water groove without a gradual decrease in the moving speed of a carrier boat and which is characterized by a cable lead-out structure of an internal water flow generator. To do.

[Construction of the Invention] In the water carrier according to the present invention, a recess is provided in a key portion of the bottom surface of a loop-shaped annular water groove,
A transport boat in which electric water flow generators for circulating water in the annular water groove are sunk in the respective recesses, fitted with the annular water grooves, and floated so as to be movable along the groove sides. However, in the water carrier configured to move in a certain direction in the annular water groove by the action of the electric water flow generator, a cable led from the electric water flow generator is annular from the rear part in the recess. A tube body that extends to the inside of the groove wall of the water groove, fits the root portion into a lateral hole formed in the lower portion of the groove wall, and guides it to a position higher than the water level in the annular water groove along the outside of the groove wall. Is used as a lead-out path to lead the cable to the outside of the annular water groove.

[Embodiment] An embodiment will be described below with reference to the drawings.

Reference numeral 1 denotes an annular water groove, which is provided in a loop shape so that it can be used for sightseeing in a landscape such as an amusement park or to connect between pavilions such as an exhibition hall. Reference numeral 2 denotes a boat-shaped carrier boat for carrying people, luggage, etc., which is fitted to the annular water groove 1 and is floated along the groove side so as to be movable.

3 ... 3 are recesses formed in two or more places at substantially equal intervals on the bottom surface of the annular water groove 1, and the circulation ports 3a and 3b are placed in front of and behind the recess 3 and the remaining portions are left. Is closed by the cover 4. The front flow port 3a is guided to the groove bottom surface of the annular water groove 1 by the slope 5 having a gentle upward slope.

6a is a front strainer provided on the front flow port 3a, 6b is a rear strainer provided on the rear flow port 3b, and both of these strainers 6a, 6b together with the cover 4 make the annular water groove 1
Supports 7a and 7b so that they are almost in the shape of a trench with the bottom of the groove.
The edge is supported by.

8 ... 8 is an electric water flow generator for circulating the water in the annular water groove 1 in a certain direction, and the jet outlets 8a. Several units are sunk in parallel in a slightly upward slope.

The cables 9 ... 9 led out from the motor portion of the water flow generator 8 ... 8 are extended to the groove side of the annular water groove 1 along the lower side of the rear support member 7b. Reference numeral 10 is a connecting tool for attaching the cables 9 ... 9 to the lower side of the support member 7b.

A lateral hole is formed in the groove wall of the annular water groove 1 near a portion contacting one end of the support member 7b. Reference numeral 11 denotes a tube body in which a root portion is fitted in a lateral hole and is guided upward along the outside of the groove wall, and the upper end thereof is opened at a position higher than the water level 1 in the annular water groove. The above cables 9 ... 9 have an annular water groove 1 with the pipe body 11 as the outlet.
Out of.

When the water flow generator 8 ... 8 is driven and the water flow is jetted from its jet outlets 8a ... 8a, a circulating water flow in a certain direction is generated in the annular water groove 1, and the boat-shaped transport is performed by the flow velocity. The boat 2 advances in the annular water groove 1 in a certain direction.

[Effect] According to the device of the present invention, the recess 2 is formed at a required position in the annular water groove 1.
And a water flow generator 8 in which the spout 8a is directed in a fixed direction.
Is sunk in the recess 2, the flow velocity in the annular water groove 1 is accelerated, so that there is an effect that it can be advanced in a certain direction in the annular water groove 1 without reducing the moving speed of the carrier boat 2. is there.

Further, there is also a characteristic in the cable 9 lead-out structure, and the cable 9 of each water flow generator 8 can be led out of the annular water groove 1 safely and efficiently, which is convenient.
