Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of amusement equipment technology, specifically relating to the opening and closing structure of a protective door for an amusement turntable. Background Technology
[0002] The disco turntable, also known as the crazy turntable or swing turntable, is a common amusement ride. It typically consists of a large circular turntable and surrounding safety features. Multiple riders can stand or sit on the turntable. During operation, the turntable rotates at high speed around its central axis, potentially accompanied by a combination of up-and-down movements and swaying from side to side. This multi-dimensional motion creates a strong sense of centrifugal force and weightlessness, making riders feel as if they are in a disco, dancing to the rhythm of the music, providing a thrilling and exhilarating experience. Disco turntables are generally suitable for teenagers and adults and are one of the most popular entertainment options in amusement parks.
[0003] On some small amusement rides, the safety gates often use a manual opening and closing mechanism. This is because the manual opening and closing mechanism has the advantages of simple structure and low cost. However, this opening and closing mechanism has certain defects, namely, it cannot detect the fully closed state of the safety gate. This makes it easy for the safety gate to be incompletely closed, which in turn has an adverse impact on the safety of the amusement ride. Utility Model Content

[0025] Example
[0026] Reference Figure 1-4 This embodiment of the present invention provides a protective door opening and closing structure for an amusement park turntable, comprising:
[0027] The protective door mechanism 100 includes a mounting plate 101, a first frame 102 and a second frame 103 respectively fixedly mounted on the top of the mounting plate 101, and a first protective door 104 and a second protective door 105 respectively rotatably mounted on the inner side of the first frame 102 and the second frame 103 via a movable hinge.
[0028] The testing unit 200 includes an opening and closing component 201 for opening and closing the first protective door 104, and a testing component 202 for opening and closing the second protective door 105.
[0029] The opening / closing component 201 and the detection component 202 work together to effectively detect the closing status of the first protective door 104, thereby accurately determining whether the first protective door 104 has been successfully closed. This prevents safety accidents caused by the first protective door 104 not being fully closed. Traditional manual opening / closing structures have certain limitations, namely, they cannot accurately detect whether the first protective door 104 is fully closed, which can easily lead to the first protective door 104 not being fully closed. However, through the coordinated work of the opening / closing component 201 and the detection component 202, the first protective door 104 can be ensured to be fully closed, thus significantly improving the safety of the turntable.
[0030] Specifically, the opening and closing assembly 201 includes two limiting grooves formed on the surface of the first frame 102, a limiting block 201a slidably installed inside the limiting groove, a tension spring 201b fixedly installed inside the limiting groove, a first inclined plate block 201c fixedly installed on the surface of the limiting block 201a, two first clip frames 201d fixedly installed on the surface of the first protective door 104 and used in conjunction with the first inclined plate block 201c, and a first connecting rod 201e for fixing the two limiting blocks 201a together.
[0031] Furthermore, the opening and closing assembly 201 also includes two push-button switches 201f fixedly mounted on the surface of the first protective door 104, and an alarm 201g electrically connected to the push-button switches 201f.
[0032] When the first inclined block 201c is fully engaged with the inside of the first frame 201d, the bottom of the first inclined block 201c will press the push-button switch 201f, causing the two push-button switches 201f to open the circuit connecting the alarm 201g, thereby causing the alarm 201g to light up, ensuring the complete locking of the first protective door 104 and guaranteeing safe use.
[0033] Preferably, the end face of the tension spring 201b is fixedly connected to the limit block 201a, and the alarm 201g is fixedly installed on the top of the first protective door 104.
[0034] Furthermore, the bottom of the limiting block 201a is provided with a stop bar, and the stop bar is fixedly installed inside the limiting groove.
[0035] The stop bar is used to block and limit the limiting block 201a, so that when the first protective door 104 is closed, the first card frame 201d can smoothly squeeze the inclined surface of the first inclined card block 201c, so that the first inclined card block 201c is engaged inside the first card frame 201d.
[0036] Specifically, the detection component 202 includes two grooves formed on the surface of the second protective door 105, a slider 202a slidably installed inside the grooves, a second inclined block 202b fixedly installed on the surface of the slider 202a, two second clip frames 202c fixedly installed on the surface of the second protective door 105 and used in conjunction with the second inclined block 202b, and a second connecting rod 202d for fixing the two sliders 202a. The second connecting rod 202d is fixedly connected to the first connecting rod 201e by a connecting rod.
[0037] The second inclined block 202b and the second frame 202c work together to open and close the second protective door 105. When the first protective door 104 is fully locked, the second inclined block 202b disengages from the second frame 202c, allowing the second protective door 105 to open. When the first protective door 104 is not fully locked, the second inclined block 202b will engage inside the second frame 202c, preventing the second protective door 105 from opening. At this time, the operator needs to check the locking of the first protective door 104 to ensure that the first protective door 104 is fully locked, thereby improving safety performance.
[0038] Furthermore, magnetic blocks are fixedly installed on the inner sides of the first frame 102 and the second frame 103, and the magnetic blocks are attracted to the first protective door 104 and the second protective door 105 respectively. The mounting plate 101 is installed on the turntable.
[0039] The magnetic blocks are used to attract the first protective door 104 and the second protective door 105, which stabilizes the first protective door 104 and the second protective door 105 and provides initial positioning for them.
[0040] When in use, when all tourists are seated on the amusement turntable, the safety personnel move to the mounting plate 101, first close the second protective door 105 so that the second protective door 105 is attracted to the magnetic block, and then close the first protective door 104 so that the first protective door 104 is attracted to the magnetic block. When the first protective door 104 is closed, the first protective door 104 drives the two first card frames 201d to squeeze the inclined surface of the first inclined card block 201c, causing the two first inclined card blocks 201c to move upward. The first inclined card block 201c drives the limiting block 201a and the first connecting rod 201e to move upward. At this time, the tension spring 201b is stretched. At the same time, the first connecting rod 201e drives the second connecting rod 202d to move upward through the connecting rod. The second connecting rod 202d then drives the slider 202a and the second inclined card block 202b to move upward, so that the top of the second inclined card block 202b is engaged with the inside of the second card frame 202c.
[0041] When the first inclined plate 201c is fully engaged with the inside of the first frame 201d, the tension spring 201b pulls the limit block 201a downwards. At the same time, the bottom of the first inclined plate 201c presses the push-button switch 201f, thereby connecting the circuit of the alarm 201g and causing the alarm 201g to light up. When the security personnel observe that the alarm 201g is lit up, the first security check is passed. In addition, when the first inclined plate 201c is fully engaged with the inside of the first frame 201d, the top of the second inclined plate 202b will disengage from the inside of the second frame 202c, allowing the second protective door 105 to be opened. When the second protective door 105 is opened, the second security check is passed.
[0042] When the first inclined plate 201c is not fully engaged with the inside of the first frame 201d, the first inclined plate 201c is stuck on the top of the first frame 201d. The first inclined plate 201c cannot press the push-button switch 201f, the circuit of the alarm 201g is disconnected, the alarm 201g does not light up, and at the same time the top of the second inclined plate 202b is engaged with the inside of the second frame 202c. The second protective door 105 cannot be opened. At this time, the safety personnel need to check to ensure that the first inclined plate 201c is fully engaged with the inner cavity of the first frame 201d.
[0043] In summary, through the cooperation between the opening / closing component 201 and the detection component 202, the closing status of the first protective door 104 can be effectively detected, thereby accurately determining whether the first protective door 104 has been successfully closed. This avoids safety accidents caused by the first protective door 104 not being fully closed. Traditional manual opening / closing structures have certain limitations, namely, they cannot accurately detect whether the first protective door 104 is in a fully closed state, which can easily lead to the first protective door 104 not being fully closed. However, through the coordinated work of the opening / closing component 201 and the detection component 202, the first protective door 104 can be ensured to be fully closed, thereby significantly improving the safety of the turntable.
