Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of automotive parts technology, and in particular to a chassis assembly for a hybrid electric sightseeing train. Background Technology

[0002] A sightseeing train is a unique mode of transportation designed specifically for scenic spots, parks, theme parks, and other similar locations. It typically runs along laid tracks, and its various designs often incorporate local cultural elements or fairytale and retro styles. The spacious and comfortable carriages offer excellent views, providing convenient transportation while allowing tourists to enjoy the scenery along the way. It becomes a practical and aesthetically pleasing mobile scenic line within the area, effectively enhancing the tourist experience. It also serves as an important vehicle for scenic spots to develop distinctive tourism projects and increase their attractiveness.

[0003] Currently, when a sightseeing train is in operation, the attractions are either located in front of the track or on either side. When the attractions are on either side of the train's direction of travel, tourists need to turn around or crane their necks to see them, and the effective viewing area is limited, resulting in a poor viewing experience. This inconvenience not only affects the comfort of tourists but also weakens the display effect of the scenic area. There is an urgent need to optimize the viewing angles in the design to enhance the immersive experience for tourists. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to solve the problems existing in the prior art by proposing a chassis assembly for a hybrid electric sightseeing train.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: a chassis assembly for a hybrid electric sightseeing train, including a frame, a flat plate mounted on the top of the frame, a CNC rotary table fixedly connected to the center of the top surface of the flat plate, a support platform rotatably connected to the flat plate via the CNC rotary table, a limit mechanism provided on the bottom surface of the support platform, and several positioning holes evenly opened on the surface of the flat plate along a circular track. The limit mechanism includes a movable cylinder and a top column, the movable cylinder being fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the support platform, the outer side wall of the top column being slidably connected to the inner side wall of the movable cylinder, a permanent magnet block fixedly connected to the top of the top column, and an electromagnetic block fixedly connected to the center of the top of the movable cylinder. The lifting and lowering movement of the top column is controlled by the electromagnetic block and the permanent magnet block.

[0006] Preferably, an axle is provided under the frame, and wheels are installed at both ends of the axle.

[0007] Preferably, a servo motor is installed inside the frame, and the wheels are electrically driven to move on the track by the servo motor.

[0008] Preferably, an engine and an oil tank are installed inside the frame, and the engine uses oil to drive the wheels to move on the track.

[0009] Preferably, a ladder is installed on one side of the frame, and the upper surface of the ladder is provided with anti-slip dots.

[0010] Preferably, the bottom end of the top column is a pointed cone structure, and a retaining ring is fixedly connected to the outer side wall of the top column.

[0011] Preferably, the rear end of the frame is equipped with a hook, which allows several frames to be connected end to end.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the advantages and positive effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0013] 1. In this utility model, a CNC rotary table connects the flat plate and the carrying platform. Combined with the electromagnetic and permanent magnet blocks in the limiting mechanism to control the lifting and lowering of the top column, the carrying platform can adjust the seat's angle arbitrarily within the positioning holes of the flat plate. When a scenic spot appears in front of or to the sides of the track, the driver can deflect the rear carrying platform in a designated direction, allowing tourists to face the scenic spot, obtain a wider field of vision, and enhance the sightseeing experience.

[0014] 2. In this utility model, by setting the bottom end of the top column as a pointed cone structure, it is easy to quickly insert and position it with the positioning hole. The outer retaining ring prevents it from detaching from the movable cylinder. After angle adjustment, the magnetic repulsion force between the electromagnetic suction block and the permanent magnet suction block pushes the top column into the positioning hole and fixes it, preventing the support platform from deflecting due to the shaking of the train. At the same time, the hybrid oil-electric drive ensures power, the anti-slip texture of the ladder facilitates tourists to get on and off, and the hydraulic braking system ensures driving safety.

[0020] To better understand the above-mentioned objectives, features, and advantages of this utility model, the present utility model will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features described in these embodiments can be combined with each other.

[0021] Many specific details are set forth in the following description in order to provide a full understanding of the present invention. However, the present invention may also be implemented in other ways different from those described herein. Therefore, the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed in the following specification.

[0022] Example 1: As Figure 1-4 As shown, this utility model provides a chassis assembly for a hybrid electric sightseeing train, including a frame 1. A flat plate 2 is mounted on the top of the frame 1. A CNC rotary table 7 is fixedly connected to the center of the top surface of the flat plate 2. The flat plate 2 is rotatably connected to a support platform 3 via the CNC rotary table 7. A limit mechanism 4 is provided on the bottom surface of the support platform 3. A number of positioning holes 8 are evenly opened on the surface of the flat plate 2 along a circular track. The limit mechanism 4 includes a movable cylinder 41 and a top column 44. The movable cylinder 41 is fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the support platform 3. The outer side wall of the top column 44 is slidably connected to the inner side wall of the movable cylinder 41. A permanent magnet chuck 43 is fixedly connected to the top of the top column 44. An electromagnetic chuck 42 is fixedly connected to the center of the top of the movable cylinder 41. The lifting and lowering movement of the top column 44 is controlled by the electromagnetic chuck 42 and the permanent magnet chuck 43.

[0023] The specific setup and function of this embodiment will be described in detail below. The sightseeing train consists of multiple carriages 1 connected end to end. The carriage 1 at the front end is equipped with a servo motor 9 and an engine 10 to drive the entire train. Each carriage 1 is equipped with a carrying platform 3, and two seats are installed on the carrying platform 3. During sightseeing, the scenic spot may appear directly in front of the track or on both sides of the track, allowing the angle between the carriage 1 and the carrying platform 3 to be adjusted arbitrarily. During the sightseeing process, according to the driver's operation, all the carrying platforms 3 in the rear row can be deflected in a specified direction, causing the carrying platforms 3 to deflect the seats above them, so that tourists face the scenic spot in the specified direction and obtain a wider field of vision.

[0024] When adjusting the viewing angle, the driver needs to unlock the limit locking switch of the limit mechanism 4 on the flat plate 2, so that the electromagnetic suction block 42 connects to the magnetic pole opposite to the magnetic pole of the permanent magnet suction block 43, so that the electromagnetic suction block 42 generates an upward attraction force on the permanent magnet suction block 43, causing the bottom end of the top column 44 to detach from the positioning hole 8. Then the flat plate 2 and the supporting platform 3 can be freely adjusted in angle. After the angle is adjusted, in order to prevent the supporting platform 3 from deflecting due to shaking during the movement of the train, the opposite magnetic pole can be connected to the electromagnetic suction block 42, so that the electromagnetic suction block 42 and the permanent magnet suction block 43 generate a magnetic repulsion force, so that the electromagnetic suction block 42 pushes the top column 44 into the positioning hole 8 at a specific position, achieving a fixing effect and improving the stability of the seats on the train.

[0025] Example 2: Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, an axle is located at the bottom of the frame 1, and wheels 5 are mounted at both ends of the axle. A servo motor 9 is installed inside the frame 1, which electrically drives the wheels 5 to move on the track. An engine 10 and an oil tank are also installed inside the frame 1, and the engine 10 uses oil to drive the wheels 5 to move on the track. A ladder 6 is installed on one side of the frame 1, and the upper surface of the ladder 6 has anti-slip textured dots. The bottom end of the top column 44 is a pointed cone structure, and a retaining ring is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the top column 44. A hook is provided at the rear end of the frame 1, allowing several frames 1 to be connected end-to-end.

[0026] The overall effect of this embodiment is that the small train is driven by a combination of oil and hydraulics. Therefore, a servo motor 9 and an engine 10 are installed on the frame 1 where the driver is located. The servo motor 9 can be used to drive the wheels 5 to rotate and move by electricity, while the engine 10 can be used to drive the wheels 5 forward by hydraulics. The bottom end of the top column 44 is set as a pointed cone shape so that the top column 44 can be quickly positioned when it is inserted into the positioning hole 8. A retaining ring is set on the outer wall of the top column 44 to prevent the top column 44 from detaching from the movable cylinder 41. A ladder 6 is set on one side of the frame 1, and anti-slip texture is installed on the ladder 6 so that tourists can climb from the platform into the higher small train carriage. A hydraulic braking system is also installed in the frame 1 so that the train can brake at any time during operation.

[0027] The device's operation and working principle are as follows: The flat plate 2 at the top of the frame 1 is connected to the support platform 3 via a CNC rotary table 7. In the limiting mechanism 4 on the bottom of the support platform 3, the movable cylinder 41 is fixed to the support platform 3. The outer wall of the top column 44 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the movable cylinder 41. The top of the top column 44 has a permanent magnet 43. The electromagnetic 42 at the top center of the movable cylinder 41 uses the attraction force generated by the opposite magnetic poles to make the top column 44 detach from the positioning hole 8 on the circular track on the surface of the flat plate 2, thereby unlocking the angle adjustment of the support platform 3. After adjustment, the electromagnetic 42 connects to the opposite magnetic pole, and the magnetic repulsion force pushes the top column 44 into the positioning hole 8 for fixation. The servo motor 9 and engine 10 in the front frame 1 drive the wheels 5. The multiple frame sections 1 are connected by hooks. The anti-slip texture on the ladder 6 facilitates the movement of tourists. The outer retaining ring of the top column 44 with a pointed cone structure prevents it from detaching from the movable cylinder 41. The hydraulic braking system ensures braking safety.

[0028] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model in any other way. Any person skilled in the art may make changes or modifications to the above-disclosed technical content to create equivalent embodiments for application in other fields. However, any simple modifications, equivalent changes, and modifications made to the above embodiments based on the technical essence of the present utility model without departing from the technical solution of the present utility model shall still fall within the protection scope of the technical solution of the present utility model.
