BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS FIG. 1 is a block diagram showing a preferred embodiment of an amusement vehicle transporting apparatus according to the present invention.

FIG. 1 is an explanatory view showing the entirety of a traveling vehicle transporting device for play. This device is a fixed-circulation type cableway, and is provided with grips (griping machines) 81 on supporting ropes C provided around a driving pulley A1 at a loading stop A and an end pulley B1 at an unloading stop B. A plurality of traveling body transporters 8 are fixedly connected to each other, and the traveling body transporters 8 move around together with supporting ropes C rotating at a constant speed.

In the embodiment, as the play body 9 for play,
An example of a game sled (luge) 9 is shown. The game sledging transport device includes a sledging transporter (traveling body transporter) 8, a stock conveyor 2 which is provided at a loading stop A and stores a plurality of game sleds 9, and a stock conveyor 2. A loading platform 1 that is continuously deployed;
The unloading platform 6 provided at the unloading stop B, the sled control stopper (running body control stopper) 3 provided between the loading platform 1 and the stock conveyor 2, and the unloading stop A A sled transport stopper 8, which detects the passage of the sled transporting carrier 8 and is opened at the right position, opens the sled control stopper 3, and drives the stock conveyor 2, and a game sled provided near the sled control stopper 3. A sled passage detection switch (traveling body passage detection switch) 5 for detecting that the transfer to the loading platform 9 has been performed, closing the sled control stopper 3 and stopping the driving of the stock conveyor 2. .

The loading platform 1 is a belt conveyor having a fixed length, and is provided corresponding to the trajectory of the supporting rope C. Further, the belt conveyor 1 is constantly driven, and the transfer speed of the sled transporting transporter 8 (supporting rope C speed).
Is set to a lower speed than The length and speed of the loading home (conveyor) 1 are determined such that the sled transporting transporter 8 that tracks at high speed hooks the sled 9 while the sled 9 for play moves on the home 1. Is set to be able to do.

The stock conveyor 2 includes a loading platform 1
(Continuously in the traveling direction of the transporter 8). As the stock conveyor 2, a roller conveyor or a belt conveyor is used. In the embodiment, a belt conveyor is used. An operator places a sled 9 on the conveyor 2 every time the sled transporter 8 arrives at the loading stop A, for example, so that the stock conveyor 2 always has a certain interval on the conveyor 2. And a plurality of sleds 9 are arranged.

Further, the stock conveyor 2 is provided with a tapered guide guard portion 21 on the loading platform 1 side (on the warpage control stopper 3 side). The guide guard 21 allows the sled 9 placed at random on the conveyor 2.
While moving toward the loading platform 1, the sled 9 is guided so as to match the center of the width of the conveyor 2, that is, the width center of the loading platform 1. This prevents the sled 9 from being displaced from the sled transporting machine 8 on the loading platform 1.

Further, a sled control stopper 3 is provided between the loading platform 1 and the stock conveyor 2. As the sled control stopper 3, for example, a lifting hydraulic cylinder is used. The lifting hydraulic cylinder 4 is set such that the upper end of the lifting member moves up and down with respect to the upper surface of the belt conveyor 2.

The carry-over passage detection switch 4 is provided at the loading stop A, on the return side of the driving pulley A1, that is, on the side opposite to the loading platform 1. As the transporter passage detection switch 4, a limit switch or a photoelectric tube switch is used. In the embodiment, a phototube switch 4 is used, and is electrically connected in series to the sled control stopper 3 and the drive source of the stock conveyor 2. That is, when the transporter passage detection switch 4 detects the passage of the sled transporting transporter 8, the sled control stopper 3 is lowered and the stock conveyor 2 is driven.

The warp passage detection switch 5 is provided near the warp control stopper 3. As the warp passage detection switch 5, for example, a proximity limit switch is used. The sled passage detection switch 5 is electrically connected in parallel to the sled control stopper 3 and the drive source of the stock conveyor 2. That is, the sled passage detection switch 5 detects passage of the sled 9 (from the conveyor 2 to the loading platform 1).
Is detected, the warp control stopper 3 is raised and returned, and the stock conveyor 2 is stopped.

The sled control stopper (hydraulic cylinder) 3
Of course, by providing a limit switch in the cylinder described above, the time timing between the lowering of the stopper 3 and the driving of the conveyor 2 may be ensured by a timer. Further, a sled head detection sensor (switch) for detecting the head of the sled 9 may be provided on the front side of the sled control stopper 3 (the end of the stock conveyor 2). In this case, by stopping the driving of the stock conveyor 2 with this sensor switch, the leading sled 9 can always be stopped immediately before the sled control stopper 3. In this case, the sled passage detection switch 5 functions only for raising the sled control stopper 3.

As the unloading platform 6, a belt conveyor having a fixed length is used. The conveyor 6 is driven at all times, and is set so as to move at a speed higher than the moving speed (the speed of the support rope C) of the sled transporting device 8. That is, while the sled 9 moves on the unloading conveyor 6, the sled 9 engaged with the transporter 8 is automatically separated from the transporter 8 due to the speed difference. Further, a transport conveyor (gravity conveyor) that is driven at all times is connected to the unloading platform 6.

Further, as shown in FIG. 3, a stabilizing plate 7 is provided on the front side of the unloading platform 6 (on the front side in the traveling direction of the transporter 8).
Is deployed. The stable base plate 7 includes an inclined plate portion 71 and a horizontal plate portion 72. The sled 9 conveyed in a state of being suspended in an inclined manner comes into contact with the inclined plate portion 71, and then the horizontal plate portion 7.
It is set to return to a horizontal state at 2 and shift to the unloading platform 6.

FIG. 4 is a perspective view showing the warp transporting device 8. The sled carrier 8 is provided with a bifurcated protruding flat plate 83 at the lower end of a hanger 82 provided with a grip (grip) 81 at its upper end. An upright vertical hook portion 84, 84 is provided upright at 83. The projecting flat plate portion 83 and the vertical hook portion 8
4 together form the falling-off prevention means 8A.

The game transport apparatus having such a configuration operates as follows. As shown in FIG. 1, when the sled transporting transporter 8 arrives at the loading stop A and passes through the transporter passage detection switch 4, the sled control stopper 3 is opened (down) and the stock conveyor 2 is moved. Drive.
Thereby, the game sled 9 on the stock conveyor 2 moves to the loading platform 1. At this time, when the game sled 9 passes through the sled passage detection switch 5, the sled control stopper 3 closes (returns upward) and the stock conveyor 2 stops.

As shown in FIG. 2, the game sled 9 traveling on the loading platform 1 traveling at a lower speed than the transporter 8 traveling at a constant speed, arrives at the loading platform 1 around the driving pulley A1. The sled transporting machine 8 catches up with the game sled 9 due to the speed difference.

As shown in FIG. 5 (solid line diagram in FIG. 5), the transporter 8 catches up with the game sled 9 on the loading platform 1.
Engages the sled 9. That is, the handle post 92 which is the lower part of the handle 91 of the sled 9 is sandwiched between the forked protruding flat plates 83 from the rear side of the sled 9. In this state, the vertical hook portion 84 of the forked protruding flat plate 83 is not engaged with the handle 91. The transporter 8 moves on the loading platform 1 with the sled 9 sandwiched (pressed).

When the sled 9 exceeds the loading platform 1, the sled 9 loses the support of the platform 1, and as shown in FIG. 5 (a phantom diagram of FIG. 5), the handle post 92 becomes a bifurcated projecting flat plate 83.
The vertical hooks 84, 84 hook the base of the handle 91, which expands in a bifurcated shape, on the rear hug and hold it. Thereby, the sled 9 suspended in an inclined manner is not displaced not only in the front-back direction but also in the left-right direction, and is prevented from falling off completely.

In a state where the game sled 9 is suspended in an inclined manner,
When the sled transporting machine 8 arrives at the unloading stop B, as shown in FIG.
After being in contact with the inclined plate portion 71, the horizontal plate portion 72, that is, the stable base plate 7, returns to a horizontal state. The game sled 9 in the horizontal state moves onto the unloading platform 6.

The game sled 9 traveling on the unloading platform 6 which is set at a higher speed than the sled transporting machine 8 traveling at a constant speed is in a horizontal state, and the handle post 92 is located between the forked protruding flat plates 83. Because it is only located,
The game sled 9 is in a state in which the transport sled 9 is left behind by the difference in speed between the two, and is easily separated from the transporter (bifurcated protruding flat plate 83) 8 and disengaged. Therefore, the game sled 9 is automatically removed from the transporter 8 and the unloading is completed. Further, the sled 9 automatically moves from the unloading platform 6 to the transport conveyor 61.

[0028]

As described above, according to the present invention, the loading platform is set at a speed lower than the speed of the transporter, and the unloading platform is set at a speed higher than the speed of the transporter. The sled is transferred to the loading platform, and the transporter that tracks the sled on the loading platform automatically engages and suspends the sled. At the unloading platform, the game sled automatically separates from the transporter due to the speed difference. So that game sleds are automatically loaded and loaded on the home.
Unloading is performed. Therefore, a worker who attaches and detaches the game sled to and from the transporter is not required, and a safe and rational transfer device can be provided without danger of attaching and detaching the sled as in the related art. In addition, although the game sled is transported in an inclined suspension state, it is returned to a horizontal state by the stabilizing base plate and transferred to the unloading platform, so that there is no impact with the horizontal unloading platform and the loading is performed. The removal from the carrier on the unloading platform is also performed smoothly. Furthermore, since the sled transporting device is provided with a means for preventing the sled from falling, the sled conveyed in an inclined suspension state does not fall out unintentionally and is safely conveyed. Has the effect.
