Embodiment Construction

[0034] In order to avoid unnecessary repetition, the following will describe together figure 1 , 2 and 3. Each of the same reference numerals in the figures designates the same reference part.

[0035] exist figure 1 In , the connecting rod 51 connecting the carousel profile, in this case the trolley 60 , to the vertical axis of rotation 70 corresponds to the component 50 whose characteristic changes are to be detected. Assembly 50 attached with yoke 31 to rotating vertical shaft 70 performs superimposed movements during operation of the carousel. On the one hand, assembly 50 rotates about a vertical axis of rotation 70 , while on the other hand, assembly 50 moves up and down along vertical axis of rotation 70 in a movement guided by yoke 31 . During the up and down movement, the assembly 50 supports the weight of the trolley 60 and thus assumes the load-bearing function. exist figure 1 The electromechanical system 20 shown in FIG. 2 shows only one component 50 . Prefer...

Abstract

The invention relates to a device (10) for increasing the safety of amusement rides, in particular carousels, roller coasters or the like, and comprising at least one mechatronic system (20), characterized in that the mechatronic system (20) comprises means (30, 40) for taking over completely or at least partially the function, in particular the support function, of a mechanic component in the event of a defect thereof and to detect said taking over and to provide an error signal.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an electromechanical safety system for an amusement ride and a method for increasing the safety of an amusement ride. Background technique [0002] Safety systems that monitor the wear of ride components are known. For example, EP 1464919B1 discloses a method and a device for monitoring chain wear on chain drive units used eg in transport systems, such as leisure rides, especially roller coasters. [0003] If safety systems known in the prior art detect a degradation in the safety of an amusement ride, such as degradation of the load-bearing features of the load-bearing assembly, known safety systems will immediately suspend operation of the ride. Contents of the invention [0004] The following is the content of the present invention. [0005] The object of the present invention is to provide a safety system for amusement rides. [0006] The object of the invention is achieved by an electromechanical system for an...
