The most common Ferris wheels are found in amusement parks (or theme parks) and garden parties. As an amusement park motorized game, it is known as the "three treasures of the park" together with roller coasters and carousels, but Ferris wheels often exist alone in other occasions, usually as an observation deck for activities.
[0003] The steel structure of the Ferris wheel rim is processed and assembled in sections in the factory, and then the rim is assembled into a whole after being transported to the site. Then the internal rigid truss support or flexible steel cable system is connected, and finally the whole is hoisted into place. The steel tube truss of the rim is processed in sections in the factory, transported to the site and assembled into a whole.

[0026] 3. The assembly line of the special-shaped ring forming equipment adopts the production line for processing round tubes into square tubes that our company has been using and patented. The difference is that the shape composed of multiple forming rollers is different from before. Before, it was formed into a square tube, and this is a multilateral special-shaped ring structure, which is achieved by setting the relative positions of the forming rollers, and then the formed special-shaped ring is bent to a certain arc.

For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention can be understood by specific circumstances.
[0040] The specific embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0041] like Figure 1 to Figure 6As shown, the present invention is a special-shaped ring, including a plurality of arc segments spliced into a ring, the arc segment is a hollow tube structure, the cross section of the arc segment is a vertically symmetrical structure, the upper end of the arc segment includes a first vertical surface 1, a second vertical surface 2 and a horizontal fixed surface 3, a first fixed inclined surface 4 is provided between the first vertical surface 1 and the horizontal fixed surface 3, and a second fixed inclined surface 5 is provided between the second vertical surface 2 and the horizontal fixed surface 3. Firstly, a symmetrical structure is adopted, and the force is balanced and stable;
[0042] According to the cross-sectional figure of the arc segment, multiple cross-sectional outer R angles 6 for transition are provided at the outer circle bending part, and multiple cross-sectional inner R angles 7 for transition are provided at the inner circle bending part, so as to avoid stress concentration and extend the service life of the parts;
[0043] The special-shaped ring 10 is welded from a plate into a hollow tube structure and the weld is arranged on the horizontal center straight line of the first vertical plane 1. The weld adopts a notch weld structure. The angle of the notch weld adopts a 60-degree structure. The depth of the notch weld is more than 3 / 5 of the plate thickness, preferably 4 / 5, to ensure the welding area and improve the strength after welding.
[0044] Preferably, the slope of the first fixed bevel 4 relative to the horizontal plane is smaller than the slope of the second fixed bevel 5 relative to the horizontal plane, the first vertical plane 1 is the outer side, and the second vertical plane 2 is the inner side, the first fixed bevel 4 is connected to the side reinforcement, and the second fixed bevel 5 is connected to the surface reinforcement 20, and a planar structure is used for welding and fixing to expand the contact area, increase the firmness of the welding, and improve the strength and stability of the entire structure. More preferably, the corresponding arc angle of each arc segment is between 11.5 degrees and 13.5 degrees. If the corresponding angle is too large, it is not easy to make an arc bend and the forming accuracy will be reduced. If the corresponding angle is too small, the assembly process and difficulty will be increased in the actual welding machine assembly structure, and too many segments will be connected, affecting the overall strength. Under the premise of ensuring accuracy and strength, the segmented intervals are reasonably set. This structure is suitable for arc welding structures with a radius of more than 50,000 mm and has high strength.
[0045] Preferably, the cross-sectional side length tolerance of the arc segment does not exceed 1% of the cross-sectional side length, the radius of the outer R angle 6 of the cross-sectional area does not exceed ±2mm, and the radius of the inner R angle does not exceed ±2mm. The cross-sectional area of the arc segment is formed by multiple presses, and the special-shaped ring is formed by medium-frequency hot bending with a radius of 10.

[0046] Preferably, the end face bending tolerance does not exceed 0.2% of the tube length, the radial radius tolerance does not exceed ±10mm, the torsion value tolerance does not exceed 2 / 1000 of the tube length, the edge convexity is not greater than 0.6 / 1000 of the cross-sectional side length, and the plate thickness tolerance used for the special-shaped ring 10 does not exceed ±0.3mm. Setting these parameters can ensure the strength and precision of the special-shaped ring 10. Therefore, the special-shaped ring 10 is composed of multiple arc segments and is used for super-large equipment. Precision and strength are crucial and directly affect safety. The difference in any parameter must be within the tolerance range, otherwise it will affect the forming of the part.
[0047] The equipment for processing the special-shaped ring 10 includes a feeding component, a pushing component, a section forming component, an arc forming component and a blanking component arranged in an assembly line. The section forming component includes four forming rollers 81. The four forming rollers 81 are arranged at four corners and form a forming cavity consistent with the shape of the special-shaped ring. The forming rollers 81 rotate along their own axes. The feeding component, the pushing component, the arc forming component and the blanking component are all equipped with the company's existing equipment. Relevant patents have been applied for before. The feeding component can refer to the following two patents, "CN201720313774.9 A conveying device for a rectangular tube production line" and "CN201720312779.X A plate buffer conveying device for a rectangular tube production line"; the pushing component can refer to the following patents, "CN201720351945.7 A rectangular steel tube clamping device", and the cooling device involved in the pushing process can refer to the following patent, "CN201720316264.7 A welding cooling water circulation supply device for a rectangular tube production line". In the process of pushing, the section forming After the forming assembly, the cross-sectional shape of the special-shaped ring 10 is formed. The formed special-shaped ring 10 is formed into a certain curvature through the curvature forming assembly. You can refer to the patents "CN201310148530.6 A heat pipe bending method and heat pipe bending manufacturing device" and "CN201210436582.9 A plate and tube bending machine".

[0048] Preferably, the forming roller 81 is fixed on a horizontal shaft 82, and the two ends of the horizontal shaft 82 located at the axis of the forming roller are rotatably connected to the bearing seat 84 through four rows of cylindrical roller bearings 83 respectively. The bearing seat 84 is fixed to a fixing device, and a fixed seat 87 is provided at the end of the bearing seat 84 away from the forming roller 81.

The forming roller 81, the horizontal shaft 82 and related parts are arranged in a group and then connected to the fixing device. Because the length of the forming roller 81 is about 1 meter and the diameter is also relatively large, it is necessary to ensure the specifications and hardness of the forming. In addition, due to the related parts, the weight of the entire horizontal shaft 82 and related parts is relatively large. After the lifting ring 821 is provided, it is convenient for the lifting and transportation of the entire structure. The forming roller 81 and the horizontal shaft 82 are fixedly connected by a key structure. The length of the key is set close to the length of the forming roller 81. The reducer 85 is a planetary reducer 85. The planetary reducer 85 is a direct transmission structure. The planetary reducer 85 can increase the torque and increase the stability of this structure.
[0050] Preferably, the overall hardness of the forming roller 81 is between HRC58 and 62. A nitriding layer can be provided on the outer surface of the forming roller 81 to improve the outer surface hardness of the forming roller 81. Only after the hardness is ensured can the square steel be guided and pressed, thereby realizing extrusion deformation according to a preset shape. If the hardness of the forming roller 81 is too low, the service life of the forming roller 81 is too short, and the forming accuracy of the special-shaped ring 10 cannot be guaranteed. The surface roughness of the forming cavity formed by the forming roller 81 is 1.6, and the diameter tolerance of the forming roller 81 is ±0.05. The dimensional accuracy and surface roughness of the forming roller 81 are set to ensure the accuracy of the forming roller 81, further ensure the accuracy of the special-shaped ring 10, and improve the qualified rate of the product.

The steel tube is transported to the processing area using a crane.
[0058] Furthermore, before S1, the raw material inspection and loading are completed, qualified products are loaded, and unqualified products are classified and processed. The loading is carried out by overhead crane, and the material is fed through V-shaped rollers. In S4, the outer dimensions, R angle size, surface convexity and concaveness, and straightness of the special-shaped ring are measured in time. After S6, the operator lifts the semi-finished steel pipe to the roller of the whole-mouth unit, sends one end of the steel pipe to the front of the whole-mouth machine, clamps it, adjusts the shaping mold according to the inner diameter of the steel pipe, and starts the hydraulic system facing the edge of the pipe mouth.

[0059] In the actual working process, the special-shaped ring 10 is first processed from a round tube into a square tube structure before processing, see the patent "CN201720312599.1 Rectangular tube extrusion molding device from a round tube", and then the square tube is extruded into the special-shaped ring 10 structure. The square tube passes through the feeding component, the pushing component, the section molding component, the arc molding component and the blanking group in sequence. When passing through the section molding component, the molding of the special-shaped ring 10 is realized under the limitation of the molding cavity. Under the pressure of strength and the size limitation of space, the square tube Only after the structure is deformed into a special-shaped ring 10 can it be further pushed forward, and the arc shape after forming is formed and packaged. In the actual practical process, multiple arc segments are butt-welded on site to form an arc, and are welded and fixed with multiple side tie bars and surface tie bars 20 to form the outer hub of a Ferris wheel or a large circular equipment. In one structure, there can be multiple special-shaped rings 10 to form a complete skeleton structure. This special-shaped ring 10 structure has high strength, stable welding, and can be produced in segments in a modular manner, which reduces processing costs and improves on-site welding efficiency.
