Detailed Implementation

[0030] The technical solutions in this embodiment will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. The described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments, not all of them. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments in this solution without creative effort are within the protection scope of this solution.

[0031] Example 1

[0032] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, this embodiment designs a base structure for tourists to pass through and spray, including game unit 4, base platform 3, water spray mechanism 5 and other components.

[0033] The base platform 3 comprises multiple platforms, specifically six. These platforms are arranged in a circular array around the periphery of a selected play area. The platform surface of each base platform 3 is higher than the ground or water surface of the play area. The projection of each base platform 3 onto a horizontal plane is a shape composed of straight and curved edges, or a circular or polygonal plane. The shielding side 32 is planar or curved. The chamfered shielding surface connects to the shielding side 32. When the base platform 3 is a spliced ​​structure composed of multiple panels, the platform surface of the base platform 3 is the upper surface of the top plate of the spliced ​​structure. The platform surface of the base platform 3 can also be composed of multiple platform panels 31. Furthermore, when the base platform 3 is triangular, chamfers are provided at each of the three corners of the base platform 3; these chamfers are either straight-edge chamfers or curved chamfers. Below each chamfer is a chamfered panel, the outer surface of which is the chamfered shielding surface.

[0034] Various game units 4 and game accessories can be built between the base platforms 3, above the base platforms 3, and in the center of the play area to form a complete play area for entertainment. For example, game units that players can pass through can be set between adjacent base platforms 3, thus forming a structure in which game units 4 and base platforms 3 are alternately arranged in a ring in the play area, with game units 4 and base platforms 3 set alternately and connected alternately.

[0035] One or more base platforms 3 are provided with a staircase 2 on the side away from the center of the play area; the staircase 2 is used for tourists to enter the play area, and the play area can manage tourists entering and leaving the play area from the staircase 2 and check whether tourists are wearing safety protection measures.

[0036] In this embodiment, the base structure for tourists to traverse and spray water features allows tourists to easily use water spraying mechanisms such as water guns on each base platform 3 for water spraying games. At the same time, since tourists can traverse between the game units between adjacent base platforms 3, it satisfies the dual entertainment needs of tourists for spraying games and traversing games.

[0037] In addition, to delineate and isolate the play area, a fence 1 is installed between adjacent base platforms 3. The fence 1 can be made of wood, metal, or transparent materials. The left and right ends of the fence 1 connect to the two adjacent base platforms 3, respectively. The upper edge of the fence 1 is above the ground or water surface, while the lower edge is close to the ground or water surface, thus preventing visitors from outside the play area from entering. When the entire play area is located in a water area with a certain depth, the fence 1 does not need to extend to the bottom; it only needs to extend below the water surface to prevent visitors from bending over to pass through. This does not affect the water flow inside and outside the play area and ensures smooth water circulation, facilitating water disinfection.

[0038] In addition, in order to prevent tourists from entering the area below the base platform 3, shielding sides 32 can be provided below each side edge of the platform surface. The lower side of each shielding side 32 extends to the ground or below the water surface, and two adjacent shielding sides 32 are connected.

[0039] To expand the usable area of ​​the base platform 3, an inner extension platform 35 is provided on one or more base platforms 3 near the center of the play area. The platform surface of the inner extension platform 35 is higher than the ground or water surface of the play area, and an extension platform baffle 36 is provided below each side edge of the platform surface of the inner extension platform 35. An outer extension platform 33 can also be provided on the side of the base platform 3 away from the center of the play area. The outer extension platform 33 is plate-shaped and extends beyond the fence 1. The outer extension platform 33 is trapezoidal or semi-circular. The number of inner extension platforms 35 and outer extension platforms 33 can be selected according to the actual needs. In addition, the inner extension platforms 35 and outer extension platforms 33 can be spliced ​​together with any base platform 3, depending on the specific needs.

[0040] Example 2

[0041] like Figures 3 to 4As shown, this embodiment designs a central water jet island 6, which is located at the center of the selected play area, that is, at the center of the base structure and protrudes from the water surface.

[0042] The central fountain island 6 comprises several columnar modules 63, each with a prismatic structure. The columnar modules 63 are divided into multiple layers from the center outwards, with adjacent layers connected to each other. Adjacent modules within the same layer are also connected. The height of the columnar modules 63 decreases progressively from the center outwards. The height and shape of the columnar modules 63 can vary, gradually decreasing from the center outwards to form a volcano-like shape.

[0043] The central columnar module 63 has the highest point. A water collection trough is located at the top of this module, and a water spray trough 61 is positioned above it. A support column 62 connects the water spray trough 61 to the top of the central columnar module 63, placing the water spray trough 61 above the water collection trough 64. The water spray trough 61 has notches around its perimeter, and a water pipe is connected to its bottom, leading to a water source. This allows water to spray upwards from the water spray trough 61, fall back into it, and then drop through the notches into the water collection trough 64 below. Alternatively, the water spray from the water spray trough could be larger and the spray height higher, with some water falling back into the water spray trough and flowing downwards, while the rest would spread outwards and flow along the columnar module, resembling a volcanic eruption.

[0044] Water collection troughs 64 are also provided on the top of some other columnar modules 63, so that multiple water collection troughs 64 are arranged around the water spray trough 61. Water flow channels 65 are provided between adjacent water collection troughs 64 and between water collection troughs 64 and the water surface. Water flow gaps 66 are provided at the edge of each water collection trough 64. The water flow gaps 66 are connected to the water flow channels 65, so that water can flow from the water spray trough 61 in the center of the central water spray island 6 to the outer periphery, through the water flow channels 65 and water collection troughs 64 to the water surface. The water flow channels 65 can be arranged along the top surface and / or side wall surface of the columnar module 63.

[0045] Each columnar module 63 is provided with a water collection tank 64 and / or a water flow channel 65 at its top. The water collection tanks 64 between adjacent columnar modules 63 of different heights can be connected by the water flow channel 65, and the flow direction of the water flow channel 65 is radiating from the central area to the outer periphery.

[0046] Target blocks 67 are provided on some or all of the columnar modules 63. Target blocks 67 can be set on the side walls or top surface of the columnar modules 63. The water spray mechanism 5 can be used to hit the target blocks 67, thereby increasing the fun. The water spray mechanism 5 can be a common spray device such as a water cannon, or it can be replaced with a device that sprays other media, such as a sprayer that sprays ocean balls. The central water spray island 6 can also be replaced with a mechanism with target points suitable for hitting ocean balls, such as: a target that rotates or changes color after being hit; or a target that emits a sound after being triggered and whose sound changes when hit repeatedly.

[0047] The target block 67 can be set on the side wall or top wall of the module, or simultaneously on the top and side walls of the same module, thus enabling the target block 67 to be hit from different angles and directions. The interior of the columnar module 63 is hollow, and the space inside the columnar module 63 is connected to the water surface, facilitating the flow of water sprayed into the columnar module 63 to flow into the pool at the bottom of the central fountain island 6. Multiple water spray mechanisms 5 are distributed around the central fountain island 6, allowing visitors in different positions to spray water in unison. When a visitor misses hitting the target block 67 with the water spray mechanism 5, the water jets from the water spray mechanism 5 can increase the water flow on the central fountain island 6, thereby enhancing the visual effect of lava flow. The target block 67 is rotatable; the water jets from the water spray mechanism 5 can hit and drive the target block 67 to rotate, causing the central fountain island 6 to emit certain visual feedback, enhancing the fun of the visit.

[0048] In addition, the structure can be designed to link the water spray trough 61 with each target block 67. That is, a position switch is provided at each target block 67. The target block 67 can rotate and can trigger the position switch. A solenoid valve and a water pump are provided on the water inlet side of the water spray trough 61. When the position switch is triggered, the opening degree of the solenoid valve or the power of the water pump increases. When the target block 67 is not hit by the water sprayed by the water spray mechanism 5, the water flow sprayed by the water spray mechanism 5 can increase the water flow on the central water spray island 6.

[0049] Decorative layers can be provided at the bottom of the water channel 65, the bottom of the fountain 61, and / or the bottom of the water collection trough 64 to create a visually continuous effect of flowing volcanic lava. The decorative layers include light strips or color strips that differ in color from other parts of the columnar module 63. Specifically, the outer surface of the columnar module 63 can be set in dark colors such as black, dark blue, brown, dark green, cyan, or combinations thereof, while the decorative layer can be set in light colors such as white, yellow, pink, sky blue, light green, or combinations thereof. The decorative layer can also be red, giving the central fountain island 6 a more volcanic eruption feel and enhancing the fun for visitors.

[0050] Example 3

[0051] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, this embodiment designs a combined spray and traverse entertainment facility, including the base structure in embodiment 1 and the central water jet island 6 in embodiment 2.

[0052] Specifically, the central fountain island is located in the center of the play area and protrudes from the water surface. The central fountain island includes several columnar modules. The columnar modules are divided into multiple layers from the center to the periphery, and the height decreases continuously. The columnar module at the very center has the highest height. A water collection trough is provided on the top of the columnar module and a water spray trough is provided above it. Water collection troughs are provided on the top of some columnar modules. Multiple water collection troughs are arranged around the water spray trough. Water channels are provided between adjacent water collection troughs and between the water collection troughs and the water surface, so that water can flow from the water spray trough in the center of the central fountain island to the periphery, through the water channels and water collection troughs, and into the water surface.

[0053] The base structure includes multiple game units and multiple base platforms arranged around the play area; the game units and base platforms are arranged alternately and connected alternately; the platform surface of the base platform is higher than the ground or water surface of the play area; the game units are arranged between adjacent base platforms and allow visitors to pass through; an inner extension platform is provided on one or more base platforms near the center of the play area; a water spray mechanism is installed on the inner extension platform.

[0054] Target blocks are set on some or all of the columnar modules, with different target blocks located in different positions on the central fountain island, so that the water can be sprayed when visitors cross to different base platforms.

[0055] Because existing water park attractions typically feature game units 4 that involve traversing or climbing, even with the addition of timed overflow or spray devices, the spraying is aimless and rather monotonous. This application addresses this by placing a central water fountain island 6, shaped like a volcano, in the center of the water park's play area. Further, it incorporates rotating target blocks or similar markers, allowing visitors to use water cannons to spray water at different locations on the central fountain island 6. Multiple water cannons can also be installed, allowing visitors from different directions to spray water simultaneously, enabling collaborative play and enhancing the overall fun.

[0056] The above embodiments are merely illustrative examples for clear explanation and are not intended to limit the implementation; it is neither necessary nor possible to exhaustively list all possible implementations. However, obvious variations or modifications derived therefrom remain within the scope of this technology.
