Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of amusement facilities, in particular to a rail vehicle for amusement facilities. Background Art

[0002] Rail vehicles are common tools for carrying tourists in amusement facilities. With the increasing demand of tourists for playing experiences, immersive experience venues have emerged as the times require. These venues use rail vehicles to carry audiences and combine scene designs such as optoelectronics, wind and rain, and films to enable audiences to have an immersive experience from aspects such as audition, touch, and motion. The realization of dynamic effects such as multi-angle rotation, inclination, and vibration of rail vehicles is directly related to the experience effect of tourists.

[0003] At present, systems for controlling the driving, braking, rotation, inclination, etc. of amusement rail vehicles are all installed inside the rail vehicle, which are complex to manufacture, have heavy vehicle bodies, and high costs. Especially in scenarios with a large number of passengers, a more massive power drive system and braking system are required, which will further increase the weight of the whole vehicle and reduce the safety of the vehicle body during operation. For example, in the utility model patent "An Amusement Rail Vehicle" with the authorization publication number of CN209475549 U, power is taken through a power taking device and supplied to two motors to drive the frictional force generated by the clamping wheel sets to drive the rail vehicle. Due to the large passenger load and vehicle body self-weight of multi-person rail vehicles, when the large vehicle accelerates, the inertial force is large. Relying on the frictional force generated by the clamping wheel sets requires a large clamping force, which has high requirements for the vehicle body structure, increases the vehicle body self-weight, and greatly affects the safety of the vehicle body during acceleration and deceleration.

[0004] In short, the existing circuit design and layout of amusement rail vehicles are more complex, with higher costs. In case of failures, longer maintenance cycles and higher maintenance costs are required. To ensure safe and stable operation, the number of passengers carried by a single vehicle is generally small, making it difficult to meet the scenario requirements of multi-person joint experiences. Summary of the Utility Model

[0005] In view of the above deficiencies existing in the prior art, the utility model mainly provides a rail vehicle for amusement facilities, which is safer and has a larger passenger flow.

[0006] To achieve the above object, the utility model provides a rail vehicle for amusement facilities, including a vehicle body and a traction mechanism. It is characterized in that the vehicle body includes wheels, a chassis bracket, a rotating mechanism, a swaying mechanism, and a cockpit. The traction mechanism includes a fixing mechanism, a traction rope set, and a driving mechanism. The wheels are installed below the chassis bracket, the rotating mechanism is installed above the chassis bracket, the swaying mechanism is installed above the rotating mechanism, the cockpit is installed above the swaying mechanism, the fixing mechanism is fixed on the chassis bracket, and the driving mechanism is connected to the fixing mechanism through the traction rope set.

[0007] As a preferred technical solution of the present utility model, the rotating mechanism includes a slewing bearing and a rotation driving mechanism. The slewing bearing includes a toothed outer ring and a toothless inner ring. The rotation driving mechanism is in meshing transmission with the toothed outer ring. The upper part of the toothed outer ring is connected to the swinging mechanism, and the lower part of the toothless inner ring is fixedly connected to the chassis bracket.

[0008] Further, the rotation driving mechanism includes a driving gear and a rotation driving motor. The rotation driving motor is rotationally connected to the driving gear, and the driving gear is in meshing with the toothed outer ring.

[0009] Further, the rotation driving mechanism further includes a mounting support. The driving gear and the rotation driving motor are fixed on the chassis bracket through the mounting support.

[0010] As a preferred technical solution of the present utility model, the swinging mechanism includes six telescopic arms. The lower ends of the telescopic arms are circumferentially hinged along the upper part of the toothed outer ring, and the upper ends of the telescopic arms are sequentially hinged along the outer periphery of the bottom of the cockpit.

[0011] Further, each telescopic arm includes an upper hinge seat installed at its upper end and a lower hinge seat installed at its lower end. The upper hinge seat is fixedly connected to the cockpit, and the lower hinge seat is fixedly connected to the upper part of the toothed outer ring.

[0012] As a preferred technical solution of the present utility model, the traction rope group includes a front traction rope group and a rear traction rope group. The driving mechanism includes a front driving mechanism and a rear driving mechanism. The front driving mechanism is connected to the fixing mechanism through the front traction rope group, and the rear driving mechanism is connected to the fixing mechanism through the rear traction rope group.

[0013] Further, the front driving mechanism includes a front winding mechanism, a front speed reducer, and a front traction motor. The front traction motor is connected to the front speed reducer, the front speed reducer is rotationally connected to the winding mechanism, and the front traction rope group is connected between the front winding mechanism and the fixing mechanism. The rear driving mechanism includes a rear winding mechanism, a rear speed reducer, and a rear traction motor. The rear traction motor is connected to the rear speed reducer, the rear speed reducer is rotationally connected to the rear winding mechanism, and the rear traction rope group is connected between the rear winding mechanism and the fixing mechanism.

[0014] As a preferred technical solution of the present utility model, the material of the traction rope group is steel wire rope.

[0015] Different from the prior art, the beneficial effects achieved by the above technical solutions are as follows:

[0016] (1) In terms of structural layout, the amusement facility places the traction mechanism outside the rail vehicle body with a rail car, simplifies the original circuit design and circuit layout of the traditional rail vehicle, reduces the cost of the rail vehicle, and when the rail vehicle breaks down, the corresponding maintenance cost is reduced and the corresponding maintenance cycle is shortened, and the construction cost and maintenance difficulty of the amusement track will be effectively reduced.

[0017] (2) Due to the external placement of the traction mechanism, the weight of the rail vehicle body is effectively reduced. At the same time, since the traction mechanism is no longer restricted by the body space, the traction mechanism can be equipped with a motor with a higher power, providing greater power for the vehicle body. In the design of the vehicle body, a larger cockpit can be installed to accommodate more audiences or tourists to ride, while maintaining the safety of the vehicle body.

[0018] (3) Due to the change in the traction method, the running stability of the amusement rail vehicle is improved, and the speed adjustment and braking of the rail vehicle are more accurate, enhancing the viewing or amusement experience of the audience. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
