[0027] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0028] Example 1:

[0029] refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3A folding amusement turntable includes a base frame assembly 1. A base frame cover 8 is bolted to the top of the base frame assembly 1. A slewing bearing 3 is installed at the bottom of the base frame cover 8. A central column assembly 5 is rotatably connected inside the slewing bearing 3. A main arm connecting shaft 12, rotatably connected to the base frame cover 8, is fixedly sleeved on the surface of the central column assembly 5. Main arm one 11 and main arm two 13 are bolted to both sides of the surface of the main arm connecting shaft 12, respectively. Support arms 7 are provided at the ends of main arm one 11 and main arm two 13 away from the main arm connecting shaft 12. A fiberglass cabin 14 is rotatably connected to the top of the support arm 7. A gate 20 is hinged to one side of the fiberglass cabin 14. By bringing the three adjacent support arms 7 and the top fiberglass cabin 14 together and pulling out the arm pin in the middle of the three front support arms 7, the support arms 7 and the fiberglass cabin 14 are flipped upwards. Then, the pin is used to secure them. Then, the other two support arms 7 are brought together and fixed with iron pipes. This allows the fiberglass cabin 14 to be folded and stored, reducing the space occupied by the amusement carousel and facilitating its transportation and movement.

[0030] refer to Figure 1 Both main boom 11 and main boom 213 are fixedly connected to the end of the outrigger 7 with outrigger connecting shaft 19 and outrigger connecting shaft 20, which are rotatably connected to the outrigger 7. Each outrigger connecting shaft 19 and outrigger connecting shaft 210 has a pin inserted inside, which engages with the outrigger 7. This allows the outrigger 7 and the fiberglass cabin 14 to be flipped upwards by rotating the outrigger connecting shaft 19 and outrigger connecting shaft 210 at one end of the main boom 11 or main boom 213, and then fixed in place by the pin.

[0031] refer to Figure 1 A three-phase motor 2, bolted to the base frame assembly 1, is installed on one side of the bottom of the base frame outer cover 8. The output end of the three-phase motor 2 is connected to a worm gear reducer 4. By opening the slewing bearing 3 to drive the worm gear reducer 4, the center column assembly 5 can rotate under the drive of the slewing bearing 3 and the worm gear reducer 4.

[0032] refer to Figure 1 Both the slewing bearing 3 and the center column assembly 5 are equipped with hexagonal head bolts 6 at their bottoms. The slewing bearing 3 and the center column assembly 5 are respectively bolted to the bottom of the base frame cover 8 and the output end of the worm gear reducer 4 via the hexagonal head bolts 6. This reinforces the bottom of the main arm, improving the stability of the amusement turntable's rotation.

[0033] refer to Figure 1 A light post 15 is bolted to the top of the central column assembly 5, and a conductive component 16 is electrically connected inside the light post 15. This allows for colored lighting during the rotation of the turntable, increasing the fun of the amusement ride.

[0034] refer to Figure 1Support jacks 17 are bolted to the four corners of the bottom of the base frame assembly 1. This facilitates adjusting the height of the amusement turntable product or lowering the height of the amusement turntable, ensuring that the tires are grounded and stressed during transportation.

[0035] refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 The bottom of the base frame assembly 1 is equipped with a trailer axle, and trailer wheel assemblies 18 are rotatably connected to both sides of the bottom of the base frame assembly 1 via the trailer axle. A tow arm 19, which works in conjunction with the trailer wheel assembly 18, is bolted to one end of the bottom of the base frame assembly 1. This allows the amusement turntable to be connected to a tow head via the tow arm 19, thus facilitating towing and transportation by a trailer.

[0036] refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 Both ends of the trailer axle are equipped with brake assemblies that work in conjunction with the trailer wheel assembly 18. Brake indicator lights 21, electrically connected to the brake assemblies, are bolted to both sides of the underframe assembly 1. The brake indicator lights 21 include left and right turn signals, brake lights, and reversing lights. These lights can simultaneously reflect the lighting signals of the trailer body, improving transportation safety.

[0037] Brief description of usage: First, before folding, use pins to fix the fiberglass cabin 14 to the top of the support arm 7 to prevent it from rotating automatically. Then, move the three adjacent support arms 7 and the top fiberglass cabin 14 forward and backward respectively, and pull out the middle arm pin of the three front support arms 7. This allows the support arms 7 and fiberglass cabin 14 to be flipped upward by rotating at one end of the main arm 11 or main arm 13 using support arm connecting shaft 1 9 and support arm connecting shaft 2 10. Then, fix them with pins. Next, move the other two front support arms 7 towards the middle and fix them with iron pipes to prevent them from wobbling or separating. Finally, fold the middle arm of the three rear support arms 7 again using the above method, and fold the other two support arms 7 together. Fix them with iron pipes to prevent them from wobbling or separating. Hang the fence on the left and right sides and fix it with cable ties to prevent it from wobbling.

[0038] This specific embodiment is merely an explanation of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. After reading this specification, those skilled in the art can make modifications to this embodiment without contributing any inventive step, but as long as they are within the scope of the claims of the present utility model, they are protected by patent law.
