Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of Ferris wheel drive structures, and specifically relates to a new type of Ferris wheel drive structure. Background Technique

[0002] A Ferris wheel is a large rotating mechanical building facility. Hanging on the edge of the wheel are cabins for passengers to ride in. As the Ferris wheel slowly rotates upwards, passengers can overlook the surrounding scenery from a high place. The most common Ferris wheels usually appear in amusement parks, theme parks, and garden fairs. As a kind of amusement park ride, together with roller coasters and carousels, they are collectively called the three treasures of the park. However, Ferris wheels are also often independently present in other occasions and are usually used as viewing platforms for activities. Ferris wheels are huge in volume and complex in structure, and the drive structure can provide power for the Ferris wheel and drive the Ferris wheel to rotate.

[0003] However, during the use of the current Ferris wheel drive structure, a slide rail is required for pushing, which is prone to jamming, resulting in damage to the equipment and greatly reducing the practicality of the equipment. Therefore, technical personnel in this field have provided a new type of Ferris wheel drive structure to solve the problems raised in the above background technique. Content of the Utility Model

Detailed Embodiments

[0020] In the description of the present utility model, it should be understood that the orientation or positional relationship indicated by the terms "center", "longitudinal", "transverse", "upper", "lower", "front", "rear", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "top", "bottom", "inner", "outer", etc. is based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the drawings. It is only for the convenience of describing the present utility model and simplifying the description, rather than indicating or implying that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, it should not be construed as a limitation to the present utility model. In addition, the terms "first", "second", etc. are only used for descriptive purposes and cannot be understood as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly specifying the quantity of the indicated technical features. Thus, the features defined with "first", "second", etc. may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of such features. In the description of the present utility model, unless otherwise specified, the meaning of "a plurality" is two or more.

[0021] In the description of the present utility model, it should be noted that unless otherwise clearly specified and defined, the terms "installation", "connection", and "coupling" should be understood in a broad sense. For example, it may be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it may be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it may be directly connected or indirectly connected through an intermediate medium, and it may be the communication inside two elements. For those of ordinary skill in the art, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present utility model can be understood through specific circumstances.

[0022] Please refer to Figures 1 to 5 , in an embodiment of the present utility model, a novel Ferris wheel drive structure includes a runner outer ring assembly 1, two sets of drive assemblies 5, and two sets of tensioning assemblies 7. The runner outer ring assembly 1 includes a plurality of support beams 101. Reinforcing rods 102 arranged at equal intervals are fixedly connected to the outer surface of the support beams 101. A friction ring 104 is installed outside the runner outer ring assembly 1, and the outer ring assembly 1 is connected into a ring through a connecting member 105.

[0023] Two reinforcing plates 103 are fixedly connected to the outer surface of each reinforcing rod 102, and the outer surface of each reinforcing plate 103 is fixedly connected to the support beam 101. Each drive assembly 5 includes two reduction motors 501. A drive frame 503 is fixedly connected to the output end of each reduction motor 501. A solid tire 504 is rotatably connected to the upper surface of each drive frame 503 through a bearing. The output end of each reduction motor 501 is fixedly connected to the solid tire 504, which can make the solid tire 504 more stable during rotation.

[0024] On one side of each set of driving frames 503 close to each other, a fixed seat 502 is hinged through a pin shaft. Each tensioning assembly 7 includes a spring sleeve 701. Each spring sleeve 701 is hinged to one of the driving frames 503 through a pin shaft. An adjusting sleeve 702 is installed inside the spring sleeve 701, and a spring core shaft 703 is provided inside the adjusting sleeve 702, which can prevent the solid tire 504 from being stuck during rotation, thereby greatly increasing the practicability of the equipment.

[0025] The working principle of the present invention is as follows: First, the staff can install the driving assembly 5 at the use position. When the Ferris wheel is working normally, the driving assembly 5 provides the driving force to make the solid tire 504 rotate. When the Ferris wheel stops running, the driving assembly 5 simultaneously serves as the braking device of the solid tire 504 to decelerate until the rotation of the solid tire 504 stops and remains stationary. The tensioning assembly 7 relies on the adjusting sleeve 702 to adjust the pressure of the tire on the friction ring 104. When the Ferris wheel is running normally, when the driving assembly 5 drives the solid tire 504 made of rubber to rotate abnormally, it can slide relative to the friction ring 104 to prevent damage to the reduction motor 501.

[0026] The above-mentioned is only the preferred specific implementation manner of the present invention, but the protection scope of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any person skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed by the present invention, according to the technical solution of the present invention and its inventive concept, makes equivalent replacements or changes, and should be covered within the protection scope of the present invention.

Therefore, it is intended to include all changes falling within the meaning and scope of the equivalent elements of the claims in the present invention. Any reference signs in the claims should not be regarded as limiting the claims involved.

[0027] In addition, it should be understood that although this specification is described according to the implementation manners, not each implementation manner only includes an independent technical solution. This narrative manner of the specification is only for clarity. Those skilled in the art should regard the specification as a whole, and the technical solutions in each embodiment can also be appropriately combined to form other implementation manners that can be understood by those skilled in the art.
