Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of amusement facilities, in particular to a ball head hinging structure and amusement facilities. BACKGROUND

[0002] In parks, amusement parks and theme parks, a large number of amusement facilities are configured. The amusement facilities with rotating and undulating movements are popular with the majority of young people and children.

[0003] The existing amusement facilities capable of rotating and undulating movements are usually composed of a main body rotating device, a pull plate, a pull rod and a support arm. The two ends of the pull rod are connected with the pull plate and the support arm respectively, and a cross joint structure is adopted at the connection between the pull rod and the pull plate. The pull plate and the support arm are connected with the main body rotating device respectively.

[0004] The applicant finds that at least the following technical problems exist in the prior art: for some facilities, the center of the main body rotating device is provided with a curved slide, the pull plate can be displaced and rotated relative to the slide. When the pull plate moves to the curved part of the slide, the pull plate will be inclined, resulting in relative displacement in the horizontal direction and relative displacement in the vertical direction at the connection between the pull rod and the pull plate. However, the cross joint structure cannot move in multiple degrees of freedom, and can only be used for relative displacement in the vertical direction. The relative displacement in the horizontal direction will cause structural damage and safety hazards, and even cause danger. UTILITY MODEL CONTENT
