I

The invention relates to entertainment devices, in particular to a water ski carousel.

A water-skiing carousel is known, containing a CN OHTHpoaaHHoe base at the bottom of the reservoir, carrying a mast with radially driven rods connected to the mast by means of supporting cables, and towing ropes i3 fixed to the arms.

This device does not allow beginner water skiers to work off their starting technique, as the skier starts from the water, which requires certain skills to start.

The purpose of the described carousel is to facilitate the start of beginners in the water skier.

The goal is achieved in that the carousel has arms for the athlete's arms fixed on the ends of each bar, spring-loaded U-shaped frames and ski bridges, while the shoulders of each frame are hinged on the crossbar and the ski bridges are mounted on its base Hia.

Fig. 1 shows the rod attachment point to the mast | FIG. 2 - frame} front view; Fig, 3 - the same, side view. Carousel contains mounted

At the bottom of the reservoir, the base 1, carrying the mast 2 with radially arranged rods 3, is connected with the mast by means of supporting cables 4 and carrying the crossbar 5 for grasping arms, spring-loaded U-shaped frames 6, the shoulders of which 7 are hinged on the crossbar, and on the base 8 9 bridges for ski 10 are mounted.

The mast 2 is mounted at the base on bearings 11 and connected via a gear reducer 12 to a phase electric motor 13. Towing cables 14 are also fixed to the rods.

Use the device as follows.

In order to start, frame 6 is lowered from the position shown in FIG. 4 by the dashed line to the lowest one. 36 overcoming the resistance of the spring 15. The athlete, together with the skis 10, is placed on the gangways 9 of the frame, and hands are taken over the crossbar 5. As the rods 3 are rotated, as the speed of the ski increases, the counter-resistance of the water changes to the gliding position shown in FIG. 4. Freed from the load (weight of the skier) frame 6 under the action of the spring 15 returns to its original position. In case of its falling into the water, frame 6 does not interfere. When mastering the start technique, the skier, holding the towing cable 14, can change the radius of the circle of movement and the speed of movement. Thus, the proposed carousel has a simple design, ensures the acceptance of the start of beginner water skiers and the safety of its use;
