[0002] As is well known, amusement devices are an indispensable part of entertainment activities, bringing happiness and excitement to users. In recent years, with the progress of technology and market demands, the types and functions of amusement devices have been continuously updated and developed. In particular, rotary-lifting amusement devices are increasingly popular among people due to their unique playing methods and exciting experiences.

[0003] However, most of the existing rotary-lifting amusement devices on the market provide a single motion mode, such as only rotation or only lifting, and it is difficult to simultaneously achieve a combined motion of rotation and lifting, which limits the entertainment and excitement of the amusement devices. For the amusement devices that provide combined motion, the connecting support frame structure that can lift and rotate is relatively complex, and the support stability is not high, unable to bear a large weight, resulting in the need to reduce the installation of decorative materials, with low aesthetics and unable to meet the usage requirements.

Of course, these are only embodiments or examples and are not intended to be restrictive. Additionally, repeated reference numerals may be used in different embodiments, such as repeated numbers and / or letters. These repetitions are for the purpose of simply and clearly describing the present invention and do not represent a specific relationship between the different embodiments and / or structures being discussed.

[0025] As Figures 1-6 shown, a tower-type amusement device includes a column 1, a rotating body is movably arranged on the column 1, the rotating body includes a lifting cylinder 2 and a rotating cylinder 3 arranged in sequence from inside to outside, a hydraulic system 4 capable of driving the lifting cylinder 2 to move up and down is arranged on the column 1, a driving structure 5 capable of driving the rotating cylinder 3 to rotate in a circle with the column 1 as the center is arranged on the lifting cylinder 2, a plurality of suspension rods 6 are circumferentially and evenly arranged on the rotating cylinder 3, and a cockpit 7 is rotatably arranged on the suspension rods 6; a truss system is arranged on the rotating cylinder 3, the truss system includes truss arms 31, arm connecting rods 32 and adjustable tie rods 33; wherein, there are a plurality of the truss arms 31, and the plurality of truss arms 31 are circumferentially and evenly arranged on the periphery of the rotating cylinder 3, and one end of each truss arm 31 is hinged to the rotating cylinder 3, and the other end is fixed to the suspension rod 6 through a pin shaft 34; there are a plurality of the arm connecting rods 32, and the plurality of arm connecting rods 32 are respectively connected between adjacent truss arms 31 one by one and are located at the end of the truss arm 31 close to the suspension rod 6; there are a plurality of the adjustable tie rods 33, and the plurality of adjustable tie rods 33 are respectively symmetrically distributed on both sides of the truss arm 31 one by one, and the adjustable tie rod 33 is connected between the truss arm 31 and the rotating cylinder 3, or the adjustable tie rod 33 is connected between the suspension rod 6 and the rotating cylinder 3.

[0026] Specifically, through the combination of the lifting cylinder, the rotating cylinder, the hydraulic system and the driving structure, the cockpit on the suspension rod can move up and down and rotate in a circle around the column, thereby driving the cockpit to rotate in a circle while lifting, enhancing the interest of passengers' play. At the same time, the cockpit and the suspension rod are rotatably connected, and the passengers in the cockpit can manually push to make the cockpit rotate relative to the suspension rod, realizing the self-rotation of the cockpit, thereby effectively increasing the interaction between the passengers and the amusement device and enhancing the passengers' sense of participation and interest;

[0027] Moreover, a truss system connecting the rotating cylinder and the boom is formed by combining a truss arm, arm connecting rods, and adjustable tie rods. The truss system effectively enhances the stability and firmness of the structure and maintains the balance of the entire truss system. The truss system directly bears the weights of the boom, cockpit, and fiberglass decoration on the top of the cockpit and drives their rotation. While improving the safety of the cockpit, it is convenient to add decorative materials to enhance the aesthetics.

[0028] The adjustable tie rod is a relatively mature existing technology and is equivalent to an adjustable self-locking tie rod structure disclosed in Patent Publication No. CN221462701U. The structural principle thereof will not be elaborated in detail here. It has the functions of adjustable axial length of the tie rod and positioning self-locking. By the adjustable tie rod, it effectively tightens and fixes between the truss arm and the rotating cylinder, or between the boom and the rotating cylinder, enhancing the firmness of the overall structure of the truss system.

[0029] Furthermore, a wire rope safety device is provided between the boom 6 and the truss arm 31. Specifically, the wire rope safety device is a relatively mature existing technology and is equivalent to a tower crane hook wire rope breakage anti-falling device structure disclosed in Patent Publication No. CN115092808A. The structural principle thereof will not be elaborated in detail here. It achieves the effect of preventing the boom and the cockpit connected thereto from falling relative to the truss.

[0030] Furthermore, guide wheels 21 are symmetrically arranged at the upper and lower ends of the lifting cylinder 2 respectively, and vertical guide rails 22 are arranged on the column 1. The guide wheels 21 are correspondingly and movably arranged on the vertical guide rails 22. Then, through the cooperation of the guide wheels and the vertical guide rails, the lifting cylinder is guided to move vertically up and down relative to the column.

[0031] Furthermore, the rotating cylinder 3 is connected to the lifting cylinder 2 through a slewing bearing 23. The driving structure 5 includes a reduction motor 51 arranged on the lifting cylinder 2. A driving gear 52 is arranged on the driving shaft of the reduction motor 51, and a transmission gear ring 53 concentric with the rotating cylinder 3 is arranged on the rotating cylinder 3. The driving gear 52 meshes with the transmission gear ring 53 for transmission. Then, the reduction motor drives the driving gear to rotate, and through the transmission gear, the rotating cylinder is driven to rotate relative to the lifting cylinder, realizing the circumferential rotation of the cockpit around the column. The structure is simple, convenient for maintenance, has a short power transmission route, and high efficiency. In addition, the reduction motor is driven by a frequency converter, enabling the equipment to achieve soft start and adjustable speed change.

[0032] Furthermore, the hydraulic system 4 includes a hydraulic cylinder 41. The end of the driving shaft of the hydraulic cylinder 41 is hinged to the lifting cylinder 2 through a spherical bearing 42. Then, the hydraulic cylinder is used to drive the lifting cylinder to move up and down relative to the column.

[0033] Specifically, the hydraulic system is a relatively mature existing technology. While it includes the above-mentioned hydraulic cylinder, it also includes the relevant oil circuit control structure of the hydraulic control system for the lifting device disclosed in Chinese Patent Publication No. CN113700706B. The oil circuit control principle structure will not be elaborated in detail here. When the rotating body is at the bottom point of the column, the hydraulic cylinder is in the retracted state. The hydraulic cylinder extends to raise the rotating body. When the rotating body descends, the hydraulic system does not provide power, and the rotating body descends by its own weight. The hydraulic system controls its descent speed.

[0034] Further, one side of the cockpit 7 is provided with a switchable cockpit door 71, and a seat and a seat belt for fixing passengers to the seat are provided inside the cockpit 7.

[0035] Further, a handrail 72 is provided on the suspension rod 6 inside the cockpit 7. Thus, the passengers inside the cockpit can manually rotate the cockpit relative to the suspension rod.

[0036] Further, a platform 73 is also included, and the column 1 is fixedly located at the center of the platform 73.
