Abstract

PURPOSE:To enable a conventionally impossible ride in contact with ice at the freezing point by providing the rotating means and sprinkling means of a hollow strut, water pipe part for dropping down water through a spring and a chain onto a cup-shaped receiving stand, and heater for preventing water stagnant at the beam part from being freezed. CONSTITUTION:When water is sprinkled to an umbrella base part 3 by a sprinkler 9 while rotating a rotary rod 2 of an umbrella-shaped object 4 in the air lower than the freezing point, one part is freezed at the umbrella base part 3 and not-freezed water flows down along the umbrella base part 3 and gets stagnant at a beam part 10. Since the stagnant water 15 prevented from being frozen by the heater, the water is dropped down from the small hole of the water pipe part 10 through a spring 5 and a chain 6 onto a cup-shaped receiving stand 7. Then, the water stagnant on the cup-shaped receiving stand 7 is frozen and becomes the vehicle of ice 23. When the umbrella base part 3 is observed while riding on the vehicle of this ice 23, since the umbrella base is transparent, the umbrella-shaped object 4 looks like the umbrella of ice and a riding person himself can touch ice and enjoy the feeling of riding on the vehicle of ice.

Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a play vehicle which can be enjoyed below freezing.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art As a rotary vehicle for play, a carousel has been conventionally known as a vehicle that rotates around a vertical axis, and a ferris wheel has been typical as a vehicle that rotates around a horizontal axis. There are many types of rotary vehicles that are modified from these, and they are used as a pleasure for excursions.

[0003]

However, the above-mentioned conventional rotary vehicle for amusement rides indoors or outdoors in a room temperature state, and a rotary vehicle for amusement which can ride under the freezing point while contacting with ice is not available. There wasn't.

An object of the present invention is to provide a rotary vehicle for amusement which can ride on a vehicle below freezing point while contacting with ice.

[0005]

A rotary vehicle for play according to the present invention comprises a hollow pillar vertically installed on a base and a rotary shaft rotatably fitted to the hollow pillar via a bearing. An umbrella-shaped body having a transparent umbrella-shaped portion, a plurality of bowl-shaped cradles suspended by chains via springs around the peripheral portion of the umbrella-shaped portion of the umbrella-shaped body, and provided at the base of the hollow column. Also, a rotating shaft rotating means of the umbrella-like body, a watering means for spraying the umbrella-like portion of the umbrella-like body, which is also provided at the top of the hollow support, and a spring provided at the peripheral portion of the umbrella-like portion of the umbrella-like body. And a gutter having a small hole for dropping water to the bowl-shaped cradle through a chain, and a heater for preventing water accumulated in the gutter from freezing.

[0006]

In the atmosphere below freezing, while rotating the rotating shaft of the umbrella-shaped body by the rotating shaft rotating means, the water sprinkling means sprays water on the umbrella material portion of the umbrella-shaped body.

A part of the sprinkled water is iced to the umbrella portion, and the water that is not iced flows down along the umbrella portion and is collected in the gutter.

Since the water collected in the trough is prevented from freezing by the heater, it is dropped from the small hole in the trough through the spring and the chain to the bowl-shaped pedestal.

Then, the water accumulated in the bowl-shaped cradle adheres to ice and becomes a vehicle of ice. When you ride on an ice vehicle like this and look at the umbrella area, the umbrella is transparent, so the umbrella looks like an ice umbrella, and the passenger himself touches the ice. You can enjoy the feeling that you are on an ice vehicle.

Further, since the bowl-shaped cradle is hung by the chain via the spring, it can be moved up and down by the force of the spring during rotation, and the change can be enjoyed more than when it is simply rotated.

By rotating the spring and the chain, icing can be prevented.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS FIG. 1 shows a rotary vehicle for play according to an embodiment of the present invention.
This will be described with reference to (a) and (b). FIG. 1 (a) is a perspective view of this play rotary vehicle, and FIG. 1 (b) is a vertical sectional view.

In this rotary vehicle for play, a hollow support 1 vertically installed on a base 21 and a rotary shaft 2 rotatably fitted to the support 1 via a bearing (not shown). The umbrella-shaped portion 3 has a transparent umbrella-shaped body 4, a plurality of bowl-shaped pedestals 7 suspended from the umbrella-shaped portion 3 of the umbrella-shaped body 4 by a chain 6 via a spring 5, and A motor 8 for rotating the rotary shaft 2 of the umbrella-shaped body 4 provided at the base of the hollow strut 1, and a sprinkler for sprinkling the umbrella-shaped portion 3 of the umbrella-shaped body 4 also provided at the top of the hollow strut 1. 9, a trough portion 10 provided at the peripheral portion of the umbrella portion 3 of the umbrella-shaped body 4 and having a small hole for dropping water to the bowl-shaped cradle 7 via a spring 5 and a chain 6, and a trough portion. It is composed of a heater (not shown) for preventing water accumulated in 10 from freezing.

If this rotary vehicle for play is further detailed,
Basement 22 for placing the electric motor 8 below the base 21
Is provided, and the rotary shaft 2 of the umbrella-shaped body 4 extends to this position. A bevel gear 11 is fixed to the lower end of the rotary shaft 2, and the bevel gear 11 meshes with a bevel gear 12 provided on the rotary shaft of the electric motor 8 to rotate the rotary shaft 2 of the bevel-shaped body 4. It is supposed to do.

The sprinkler 9 provided on the top of the rotary shaft 2 of the umbrella-shaped body 4 has a ring shape, and a plurality of sprinkler holes are provided along the circumference of the ring. Then, water is supplied by the water supply pipe 13 that passes through the rotary shaft 2 of the umbrella-shaped body 4 via the basement 22. In the figure, reference numeral 14 is a frame of the umbrella-shaped body 4, and 15 is a frame supporting member.

This play vehicle is used in subzero free air. In the subzero atmosphere, the umbrella-shaped body 4
While rotating the rotation shaft 2 of the
When water is sprayed onto the umbrella cloth portion 3 of the umbrella-shaped body 4, a part of the ice cloth adheres to the umbrella cloth portion 3, and the non-iced material flows down along the umbrella cloth portion 3 and collects in the gutter portion 10.

Since the water collected in the trough portion 10 is prevented from freezing by the heater, the water is dropped from the small hole of the trough portion 10 through the spring 5 and the chain 6 to the bowl-shaped pedestal 7.

Then, the water accumulated in the bowl-shaped pedestal 7 is frozen and becomes a vehicle of ice 23. When you look at the umbrella area 3 on an ice vehicle like this, because the umbrella area is transparent, the umbrella-like body 4 looks like an ice umbrella and the passengers themselves also come into contact with the ice. You can enjoy the feeling that you are on an ice vehicle.

The spring 5 and the chain 6 are
Rotation can prevent ice accretion, but when ice accretion occurs, it is better to heat with a heater.

Also, the water sprinkler may be heated by a heater so as not to freeze. Further, the heater may be of a type using a thermostat, but the heater element has a function of self-controlling the temperature, that is, a type of transmitting a large amount of heat when the temperature is low and not transmitting a heat when the temperature is low. Also good to use.

[0021]

According to the present invention, it is possible to enjoy a rotating vehicle of ice below freezing.
