Rail changing device for roller coaster

Abstract

The invention discloses a rail changing device for a roller coaster. After the roller coaster enters a rail changing zone, the roller coaster is rotated for a certain angle through the rail changing device, then can be connected to a subsequent fixed rail section and continues to move ahead. The rail changing device for the roller coaster comprises a fixed pedestal, a rotating pedestal and a swinging bracket, wherein the fixed pedestal and the rotating pedestal are connected through a rotary bearing, so that the rotating pedestal can rotate for 360 degrees around the axis of the fixed pedestal; the top of the rotating pedestal is rotationally connected with the swinging bracket through a rotary bearing; a hydraulic cylinder capable of swinging the swinging bracket with the rotary bearing as a fulcrum is arranged between the swinging bracket and the rotating pedestal; a movable rail section for the roller coaster to drive therein is mounted on the top of the swinging bracket. After passengers in the roller coaster enter the movable rail section, the movable rail section is rotated around a vertical axis to break away from the fixed rail section, the posture of a rail is adjusted through a rotating pair and a hydraulic action, and the roller coaster is rotated for a certain angle and is then connected to the subsequent fixed rail section to achieve rail change.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to amusement facility equipment, more specifically, relates to a roller coaster track changing device which can change the running direction of the roller coaster and increase the experience effect therein. Background technique [0002] The traditional roller coaster is that the train directly enters the falling section after passing through the lifting section. This design has been well known by tourists. It lacks freshness and excitement. Occasionally, there are broken rails and track-changing designs, but the general design of broken rails is at the highest point of the track. , the speed of the train decreases to zero before running to the highest point (broken rail) by kinetic energy, and then returns backwards. The track change is realized by the translation of the platform when the train is far away (that is, the track without the train running). With these traditional designs, tourists are familiar with the operati...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

The track change is realized by the translation of the platform when the train is far away (that is, the track without the train running). With these traditional designs, tourists are familiar with the operation mode of the train first, and cannot feel the impact brought by the dynamic platform during the operation. Stimulating experience, and could not better match the theme of existing rides
