Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The utility model relates to annular roller coaster technical field, concretely is a vertical annular roller coaster. BACKGROUND

[0002] The utility model discloses a vertical annular roller coaster, has the small land area, the stimulating high characteristic amusement facilities. Her mechanical part mainly comprises annular track, sliding train, stand, lifting, brake and several big parts, and the electrical control part mainly comprises: various sensors, programmable controller, driver, communication module, display screen and the part composition.

[0003] The passenger-carrying part of the annular roller coaster is connected by two car bodies, starts from the platform by chain traction, is lifted vertically and rapidly to high altitude, is separated from the chain after reaching high altitude, makes 360-degree rotation on the overhead suspension bridge track, and then directly rushes to the ground at a high speed. When the car body advances to a certain height again, it will be braked urgently, then is connected with the chain and lifted to high altitude to make the second rotation and dive. Finally, after several stimulating "swing" operations, the car body will be braked and stopped in the high-altitude braking area at a low speed, and then will be pulled back to the platform by the chain. Thus, the annular roller coaster completes a running cycle.

[0004] At present, most of the devices are powered by AC variable frequency motors, the motor and the speed reducer are connected through a shaft coupling, the speed reducer drives the driving sprocket to rotate, and the sprocket drives the chain to lift upward. After the train is lifted to the highest point of the track from the platform, it is automatically separated from the chain and starts to slide along the track by inertia. In the annular track, the train makes at least three reciprocating slides and is braked in the high-altitude braking area. According to the control program design, the train is braked in the high-altitude braking area, stops running, and is slowly lowered to the platform by the chain. It can also be lifted again for the second time to repeat the sliding operation of the previous cycle. Because the mechanical clamping brake is used in the high-altitude braking area, the clamping force will be too large to separate due to the action of gravity, causing the problem of passenger high-altitude retention.
