Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of amusement equipment, and more particularly to a rapid extension mechanism for amusement equipment. Background Technology

[0002] In the amusement ride industry, rapid extension mechanisms are key components for enabling diverse ride movements and enhancing the visitor experience. Currently, the industry primarily uses pneumatic and electric cylinder solutions to drive rapid extension.

[0003] Current commonly used pneumatic and electric cylinder solutions have significant drawbacks: pneumatic cylinders rely on compressed air for driving, offering fast response and low cost, but their output force is greatly affected by air pressure fluctuations, resulting in poor stability, high noise levels, and the need for complex air supply equipment, increasing installation and maintenance costs; electric cylinders use a motor and lead screw drive, offering high precision and flexible control, but their low power density makes it difficult to handle rapid, long-stroke extension and retraction under heavy loads, and their procurement costs are also high. With industry development, existing solutions can no longer meet the higher requirements for speed, stability, and cost, necessitating the development of new rapid extension and retraction mechanisms.

[0004] Therefore, there is a need to develop a rapid telescopic mechanism for amusement equipment to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content
