[0031] In the prior art, special effects equipment is usually fixed on one side of the virtual reality experience seat, which can provide a more vivid experience for guests when playing. However, the installation of special effects equipment will also squeeze the aisle space, making it difficult to layout the equipment.

[0032] Embodiment 1

[0033] See also Figures 1 to 4The embodiment of the utility model discloses a lifting device for virtual reality special effects equipment, including a pair of fixed frames 10, a lifting platform 20 and a driving assembly arranged on the fixed frames 10, the two fixed frames 10 are arranged at an interval, the lifting platform 20 is slidably arranged between the fixed frames 10 and connected to the driving assembly; the lifting platform 20 is provided with a plurality of mounting positions for fixing special effects equipment, and the upper side of the mounting positions is covered with a hidden cover plate 21, and the driving assembly is operated to make the lifting platform 20 perform lifting and lowering movements on the fixed frames 10. The fixed frames 10 are all provided with driving assemblies, and the driving assemblies on both sides are operated simultaneously, so that the lifting platform 20 fixed on the driving assembly is lifted and lowered along the fixed frames 10;

[0034] like Figure 7 As shown, the bottom of the fixed frame 10 is installed below the ground height. When the equipment is not turned on, the lifting platform 20 falls to the bottom of the fixed frame 10, and the hidden cover plate 21 on the upper side of the lifting platform 20 is flush with the ground, releasing the original aisle space for users to get on and off the equipment. When the equipment is turned on, the lifting platform 20 rises, and the special effect equipment therein provides the user with somatosensory special effects; the utility model can realize the lifting and lowering of the special effect device, thereby avoiding occupying the fixed position of the aisle space and improving the layout flexibility of the amusement equipment.

[0035] Specifically, Figure 2 As shown, in this preferred embodiment, the driving assembly on the fixed frame 10 includes a motor 30, a first guide wheel 31, a second guide wheel 32 and a traction wire 33. The motor 30 is arranged at the bottom of the fixed frame 10, and the first guide wheel 31 and the second guide wheel 32 are respectively fixed to the bottom and the top of the support rod 11. One end of the traction wire 33 is fixed to the output wheel of the motor 30 and passes through the first guide wheel 31 and the second guide wheel 32 in sequence, and the other end is connected to the slider 15. After being guided by the two guide wheels, the traction wire 33 is connected to the slider 15 on the inclined sliding rod 12 from the top of the support frame. The traction wire 33 is pulled or released by the motor 30, so that the lifting platform 20 moves up and down along the inclined sliding rod 12. During the movement, the slider 15 is moved along the limit guide rail 14 under the pulling force of the traction wire 33 or the influence of gravity. In addition, since the driving components on both sides are independent of each other, the traction wires 33 on both sides of the lifting platform 20 are driven separately. When the traction wire 33 on one side breaks due to a problem, the lifting platform 20 will maintain balance under the joint action of the limiting guide rail 14 and the traction wire 33 on the opposite side, avoiding the accident of one side sliding down due to the breakage of the wire. In another embodiment, the traction wire 33 can be replaced by a transmission belt, which is stretched on the first guide wheel 31 and the second guide wheel 32, and the slider is connected to the transmission belt, so that the slider 15 moves along the limiting guide rail 14 under the drive of the transmission belt.

[0036] It is understandable that the lifting platform 20 is configured as a plurality of connected square steel frames, the square steel frames are hollow to form the installation position, and the upper surface of the square steel frames is provided with the hidden cover plate 21. The steel frame enables the lifting platform 20 to have a strong supporting function. When the lifting platform 20 is located at the bottom of the fixed frame 10, the space above it is used as an aisle space. The steel frame can effectively improve the bearing capacity. The hidden cover plate 21 is made of the same material as the ground of the amusement equipment, which improves the concealment of the special effect equipment and the support of the lifting platform 20.

[0037] It can be understood that the fixed frame 10 includes a support rod 11, a sliding rod 12, and a horizontally arranged bottom rod 13. The support rod 11 is vertically arranged and connected to the bottom rod 13. The sliding rod 12 is inclined and its two ends are respectively connected to the ends of the support rod 11 and the bottom rod 13; the sliding rod 12 is provided with a limiting guide rail 14, a slider 15 and a connecting member 22, the limiting guide rail 14 is arranged along the length extension direction of the sliding rod 12, the slider 15 is slidably fixed on the limiting guide rail 14, the driving assembly is connected to the slider 15, and the connecting member 22 is fixed to the limiting guide rail 14 through the slider 15 and is connected to the lifting platform 20.

[0038] Furthermore, if Figure 6 As shown, the connecting member 22 includes a first side plate 221, a second side plate 222, a plurality of telescopic shafts 223 and a mounting plate 224. The mounting plate 224 is vertically arranged in the middle of the first side plate 221, and the second side plate 222 is parallelly arranged on a side away from the mounting plate 224. One end of the telescopic shaft 223 is fixed on the first side plate 221, and the other end passes through the side wall of the lifting platform 20 and is connected to the second side plate 222. An elastic member 225 is sleeved on the telescopic shaft 223, and the mounting plate 224 is rotatably fixed on the slider 15. During the lifting process, the driving components on both sides cannot accurately achieve synchronous start-up. Since the connecting member 22 is connected to the rotatable slider 15 and an elastic member 225 is sleeved on the telescopic shaft 223, when the traction wire 33 on one side is first pulled upward by the motor 30, the telescopic shaft 223 is pulled, the elastic member 225 is compressed, and the connecting member 22 rotates at the same time until the driving component on the other side is started. The connecting member 22 ensures that the lifting can still work normally when the lifting is not synchronized. In this embodiment, the connecting member 22 is fixed to the slider 15 through a rotating shaft.

[0039] In this embodiment, preferably, an integrated equipment rack 16 is provided at the bottom of the fixed frame 10, the motor 30 is arranged inside the equipment rack 16, and the hidden cover 21 is provided on the equipment rack 16. The special effect equipment and the motor 30 can be completely hidden under the aisle through the equipment rack 16 to release the aisle space and realize flexible space adjustment. The equipment rack 16 and the hidden cover 21 on the lifting platform 20 are arranged flush. The equipment rack 16 and the fixed frame 10 are an integrated structure, so that the equipment rack 16 also has a load-bearing capacity. The hidden cover 21 covering the upper side of the equipment rack 16 allows it to be set in the aisle and serve as a part of the aisle. The equipment rack 16 can be used to hide the motor under the aisle, and can also be used as an aisle, further improving the concealment of the lifting device.

[0040] One embodiment further includes a bottom beam 17, which is disposed between the two fixing frames 10 and connected to the bottom rod 13. The bottom beam 17 further enhances the strength of the lifting device.
