Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of amusement facilities technology, and in particular to a Ferris wheel amusement equipment. Background Technology

[0002] A Ferris wheel is a rotating mechanical structure with passenger cabins suspended from the edge of its frame. Passengers sit in the cabins and slowly rotate upwards, enjoying panoramic views. Existing Ferris wheel cabins typically consist of a frame, sliding doors, and a rotating shaft. The sliding doors allow passengers to board and disembark and ensure their safety. The rotating shaft rotates and hangs from the frame. To allow for larger sliding doors and prevent interference with the frame, the rotating shaft is usually located above the cabins, allowing them to be fully suspended below the frame when at their lowest point. This results in a larger outer diameter for the Ferris wheel, making it suitable for large amusement parks, while smaller Ferris wheels are less common. Therefore, it is necessary to design a Ferris wheel ride suitable for small to medium-sized amusement parks. Utility Model Content

[0024] The following detailed description provides various embodiments or examples for implementing this utility model. Of course, these are merely embodiments or examples and are not intended to be limiting. Additionally, repeated reference numerals, such as repeated numbers and / or letters, may be used in different embodiments. These repetitions are for the purpose of simple and clear description of this utility model and do not represent a specific relationship between the different embodiments and / or structures discussed.

[0025] like Figures 1-8 The Ferris wheel amusement equipment shown includes a support column assembly 1, a central seat 2 at the upper end of the support column assembly 1, a rotating body 3 rotatably mounted on the front side of the central seat 2, and a plurality of rotating arms 4 evenly distributed around the outer side of the rotating body 3. A cabin 5 is rotatably mounted on the front side of the outer end of each rotating arm 4. That is to say, instead of setting up a traditional wheel frame, the cabin 5 is located on the front side of the rotating arm 4, so that when the cabin 5 opens the movable door 83 outward, there will be no interference. At the same time, the rotating shaft 82 does not need to be located above the cabin 5, but can be located directly on the rear side of the cabin 5, thereby reducing the rotation diameter of the Ferris wheel. This is an excellent choice for small and medium-sized amusement parks and can generate good economic benefits.

[0026] It is worth mentioning that since there are no objects on the front side of cockpit 5, it allows for better sightseeing and enhances the user experience.

[0027] See Figure 2 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 As shown, the support column assembly 1 includes a main column 21, side support columns 22 located on the left and right sides of the main column 21, and a rear support column 23 located on the rear side of the main column 21. This provides the best stability for a small Ferris wheel and allows the rotating body 3 to rotate more stably, thus improving the user experience.

[0028] Furthermore, a movable platform 31 is provided at the upper end of the main column 21, the central seat 2 is located on the movable platform 31, and a rotational power mechanism 32 for driving the rotating body 3 to rotate is provided on the movable platform 31.

[0029] A guardrail 41 is provided at the edge of the activity platform 31.

[0030] The rear support column 23 and the side support column 22 are both inclined to support the main column 21. In addition, a ladder 51 is provided on the rear support column 23, and a platform entrance 52 is provided on the bottom wall of the movable platform 31, so that one can climb up to the movable platform 31 through the ladder 51, which facilitates the maintenance of components such as the rotating power mechanism 32.

[0031] See Figure 7 As shown, a central shaft 61 is provided on the central seat 2, and the rotating body 3 is rotatably sleeved on the front end of the central shaft 61. The rotating power mechanism 32 includes at least a power motor 62. A pinion 63 is provided on the output shaft of the power motor 62, and a large internal gear ring 64 is also provided on the rotating body 3, which is coaxial with the central shaft 61. The pinion 63 can mesh with the large internal gear ring 64. The power motor 62 drives the pinion 63 to rotate, and the pinion 63 meshes with the large internal gear ring 64, thereby driving the rotating body 3 to rotate around the central shaft 61 as the axis.

[0032] One end of the central shaft 61 extends rearward and is connected to a safety assembly. The safety assembly includes pull rods 71 ​​spaced apart on the left and right sides of the central shaft 61. The lower ends of the two pull rods 71 ​​are fixedly connected to the central seat 2, and the upper ends of the two pull rods 71 ​​are connected to arc-shaped limiting blocks 72. The arc-shaped limiting blocks 72 are sleeved on the upper side wall of the central shaft 61. Thus, by setting the pull rods 71 ​​and the arc-shaped limiting blocks 72, the central shaft 61 can be pulled and fixed, preventing the rotating body 3 at the front end of the central shaft 61 from tilting forward, and greatly improving the stability of the rotating body 3 during rotation.

[0033] See Figure 6 As shown, the cabin 5 includes a frame 81, a rotating shaft 82 is provided on the rear side of the frame 81, and a movable door 83 is provided on the front side of the frame 81. The rotating shaft 82 is rotatably mounted on the rotating arm 4. Since there are no parts on the front side of the frame 81, the movable door 83 can be made as large as possible to facilitate passengers getting on and off.

[0034] To further improve the overall strength of the Ferris wheel, a support connecting ring 91 is also included, which connects all the rotating arms 4.

[0035] The Ferris wheel of this utility model has ten sets of rotating arms 4 and cabins 5 corresponding to each other. Ten sets of rotating arms 4 and cabins 5 are the preferred solution of this application. Of course, it is not limited to ten sets. Multiple sets can be designed according to customer needs.
