Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of amusement equipment technology, and more specifically to a shuttle amusement equipment. Background Technology

[0002] With the development of the national economy and the improvement of people's living standards, people have increasingly higher demands for personal cultural and entertainment activities. Shuttle amusement rides are a type of amusement facility with a unique operating mode, commonly including mini shuttles, time-travel VR immersive experience cabins, time-travel slides, and shuttle roller coasters. Among them, the time-travel VR immersive experience cabin is a multi-player VR motion device that integrates 4-player online competition, a six-degree-of-freedom motion platform, and 16 different environments. Through full-sensory simulations such as vibration, wind, and snowfall, combined with high-definition VR and cool lighting, it creates an immersive "time-travel" experience, suitable for theme parks, science museums, and other similar settings.

[0003] For example, the prior art publication number CN214105805U describes an automated mini shuttle amusement device that is easy to disassemble. This utility model uses a mounting box and bolts to fix a fixed box inside the mounting box, thereby fixing the exhaust fan, sound system, and dry ice machine. This makes it easy to disassemble and use. The box door facilitates daily maintenance. The exhaust fan and air jet pipe in the fun components work together to spray air. At the same time as the air jet, the sound system and dry ice machine also operate, which increases the fun and diversity, making it easier to attract players.

[0004] However, the existing technology described above still has the following problems in use: when tourists are playing in the shuttle amusement equipment, the interior of the equipment is dimly lit and the space is small, making it very inconvenient and time-consuming for staff to enter and check on the tourists. Furthermore, staff cannot constantly check the tourists' faces to assess their physical condition during the ride, resulting in low safety. Therefore, this utility model provides a highly safe shuttle amusement equipment. Utility Model Content

[0017] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0018] Refer to the instruction manual appendix Figures 1-6This utility model provides a shuttle amusement device, including a base 1, a shuttle tunnel shell 2 on the top of the base 1, and an amusement device body 15 inside the shuttle tunnel shell 2. The amusement device body 15 is installed on the top of the base 1. The amusement device body 15 can be a VR simulation experience cabin, which uses virtual reality technology to allow tourists to sit in the cabin and experience scenarios such as space shuttle and time travel. Since this is a well-known existing technology, it will not be described in detail here.

[0019] The shuttle tunnel shell 2 is equipped with a camera assembly 3, which includes a camera 31.

Mounting slots 62 are provided on both sides of the top of the shuttle tunnel shell 2. Protective shells 63 are fixedly installed inside the two mounting slots 62. A second motor 64 is fixedly installed inside the protective shell 63. The rear end of the output shaft of the second motor 64 is fixed to the front end of the rotating rod 61.

[0022] Linear module 1 (32) and linear module 2 (35) both convert rotational motion into linear motion through appropriate transmission and drive methods, or are used for precise control and positioning of objects along a straight line. Electric actuator 34 is an electric drive device that converts the rotational motion of an electric motor into the linear reciprocating motion of a actuator. Motor 1 (33) and motor 2 (64) are both electromagnetic devices that convert or transmit electrical energy based on the law of electromagnetic induction; since these are existing technologies, they will not be discussed further here.

[0023] In actual use, the base 1 must be fixedly installed first, and then the amusement equipment body 15 is installed on the base 1. Next, the bottom of the shuttle tunnel shell 2 is aligned with the slot 13 and inserted and fixed with the fastening bolts, and then it can be put into use. After the tourists enter the tunnel and sit down, the staff operates the camera 31 to film the tourists, focusing on checking whether the seat belts are worn properly to eliminate safety hazards. During the ride, the staff can also use the linear module 1 32, motor 1 33, electric push rod 34 and linear module 2 35 to adjust the position of the camera 31 in real time, expand the shooting range, and check the tourists' facial expressions in real time. If the tourists' facial expressions show discomfort, the staff can immediately stop the amusement equipment body 15 and provide timely assistance, thereby further improving safety. In addition, when the ride ends, the staff can operate the motor 2 64 to drive the rotating rod 61 to open the door panels 5 on both sides of the shuttle tunnel shell 2, so that tourists can leave quickly and avoid crowding.

[0024] Refer to the instruction manual appendix Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 5 Both protective shells 63 have heat dissipation holes 8 at their front ends, and dustproof mesh 9 is fixedly installed inside the heat dissipation holes 8. The design of the heat dissipation holes 8 facilitates the heat dissipation of the second motor 64, while the dustproof mesh 9 can block external dust and impurities, preventing dust and impurities from affecting the heat dissipation of the second motor 64.

[0025] A generator box 10 is fixedly installed on the rear top of the base 1. A generator 11 is installed inside the generator box 10. A cover plate 12 is hinged to the top of the generator box 10. The cover plate 12 and the generator box 10 are locked together by a lock. By setting the generator 11 on the base 1, the generator 11 is connected to the camera 31, linear module 1 32, motor 1 33, electric push rod 34, linear module 2 35, motor 2 64 and amusement equipment body 15 through wires. The arrangement of the wires can be arranged according to the actual situation. The generator 11 can provide power to these devices and can be used as a backup power source to ensure the normal operation of the shuttle amusement equipment.
