Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a park installation roller coaster attractions, as well as a vehicle for such an installation.
  • roller coasters are among the most popular attractions impressive and most spectacular of the parks attractions. These are circuits made up of one or several rails along which vehicles move. These vehicles are initially towed until highlight of the circuit and then they run the circuit under the combined effect of the layout and gravity alone, and can reach speeds well above 100 km / h.
  • the circuit is designed to provide passengers with varied impressions and sensations that result in a wide measure of the various sensations of acceleration that the course, comprising sequences of acrobatic figures various and in particular loopings, spirals and corkscrews, but which also result from subjective impressions, know feelings of dizziness, fear, illusion of risk or surprise at the appearance of phenomena unexpected.
  • the goal is to provide passengers with roller coasters an experience and sensations that come out from the ordinary.
  • roller coasters We know two main categories of roller coasters, depending on whether the vehicles are traveling on rails or are hanging under the rails.
  • roller coasters In the category of suspended roller coasters, a highly valued subcategory is that of roller coasters which have the particularity of having neither wall nor floor around the passengers. Such a roller coaster is described in European patent no. EP 0545860. In this roller coaster, passengers sit in hanging seats bogies, back perpendicular to the track formed by rails.
  • seats of these installations are arranged so that they can be tilted first position, when boarding or disembarking, in which the passengers have their backs arranged substantially perpendicular to the track, at a second position, that they keep throughout the course, and in which said passengers have their backs arranged substantially parallel to the way.
  • These installations thus require mechanisms relatively heavy for tilting seats, cylinders said mechanisms being subjected to significant efforts.
  • the purpose of the present invention is to provide a roller suspended coaster in which passengers can perform the route along the circuit with the back arranged substantially parallel to the track, but more designed simple, the mechanisms required for boarding and disembarking passengers being less heavy to carry out.
  • the present invention relates to a installation for amusement park called roller coaster, comprising a circuit formed by rails along which flows at least one vehicle comprising a first coupled part to the rails so that they can move along the circuit and a second part, mounted in mobile coupling on the first part and arranged so as to be able to accommodate at least one passenger in at least one seat, forming a backrest and seat, associated with a passenger restraint in the seat, so that when the vehicle travels the circuit, the passenger is suspended under the rails with the plane of its back not perpendicular to the plane of the track formed by the rails, said installation being characterized in that coupling of said second part of the vehicle to said first part allows said second part to perform a rotation about itself around an axis substantially perpendicular to the plane of the seat back.
  • the present invention also relates to a vehicle for installation of attractions called roller coaster, said vehicle comprising a first part comprising means coupling the vehicle to the installation rails, so as to allow the vehicle to move along the circuit, and a second part, mounted in mobile coupling on the first part and arranged so that it can accommodate at least one passenger in at least one seat forming a backrest and seat, associated with a passenger restraint in the seat, and characterized in that the coupling of said second part to said first part allows said second part to rotate on itself around an axis substantially perpendicular to the plane of the seat back.
  • One of the main features of the vehicles in this installation is that the tilting of the support of the passenger from a position substantially perpendicular to the track to a position substantially parallel to the track required in the facilities described above, is replaced by a simple mechanism for rotating said support on itself around an axis substantially perpendicular to the plane the passenger seat backrest.
  • Such a construction has in particular the advantage to be much simpler to carry out than that required for tilting known installations.
  • it allows to embark and disembark passengers parallel to the platform and no longer perpendicular to the platform, thus shortening the downtime of trains in embarkation / disembarkation stations.
  • the term “track formed by the rails of the circuit” when the circuit has two rails, a ribbon of left surface as a whole and two generators of which are formed by the axes of the rails.
  • the corresponding portion of track is almost plane and that is why we speak of the plane of the way.
  • the track plane is the mean tangent plane of said portion of track.
  • FIG. 1 A first portion of a circuit showing two vehicles according to the invention in motion is shown in Figure 1.
  • the circuit includes a track 1, constituted by two rails 2, 2 '(see Figure 2) of tubular shape, and along which vehicles circulate 3.
  • the rails are integral with a structure (not shown in the drawing), itself fixed on the ground through columns. This structure, which is not directly the subject of the present invention, does not will not be described here in more detail, the skilled person being otherwise quite capable of achieving it.
  • Each of the vehicles 3 comprises a chassis 4 on which is mounted, by means of a slewing ring balls 12, a turntable 13 supporting seats 14 intended to receive passengers.
  • each of the bogies has three pairs of wheels 6, 6 ', 6 "arranged to cooperate with the rail in a manner known per se and already described in the documents earlier, in particular in European patent no. EP 0545860.
  • Seats include backrest elements 15 comprising armrest parts 16 and a seat element 17.
  • the passenger is held in the seat by means of a upper harness 19, of the type with forward tilting and articulated at its upper part on the support of the seat 14, and a leg restraint device 20, also at tilting forward and hinged at its lower part to the lower end 18 of the seat frame.
  • a leg restraint device 20 also at tilting forward and hinged at its lower part to the lower end 18 of the seat frame.
  • the chassis 4 comprises a front chassis element 7 and a rear chassis element 9 made integral by through a central beam 10, on which they are fixed, said beam being articulated at 21 between the two chassis elements.
  • the front chassis 7 has a part front 8 of substantially rectangular parallelepiped shape and a rear part 22 having an inclined lower surface, for example 10 °, with respect to the front part and on which is mounted an orientation crown 12 rendered integral with a rotary plate 13 on which the supports 14 of the seats intended to receive passengers.
  • a coupling rod 11, intended for vehicle coupling to another vehicle, is attached to the front end of the central beam 10.
  • the orientation crown 12 can be a crown ball, cylindrical roller or roller orientation conical, or of any other known type. Crowns ball and roller bearings are for example marketed under the brand “RKS” by the company French company RKS (SKF group company) in Avalon, France.
  • the turntable 13 is in its position of course of the circuit, the plane of seat backs, and therefore the plan of the backs of passengers, being inclined at an angle of about 10 ° from on the track plan.
  • this inclination can be different and depends on the vehicle's execution form and including its chassis.
  • this inclination can be chosen less than 10 °, for example close to 0 °, so passengers have their backs substantially parallel to the way.
  • This inclination can also be chosen higher at 10 °. However, so that passengers have the impression of fly, we will preferably choose a tilt in the interval between 0 and 30 °.
  • the angle by which to rotate the rotary tables 13 depends among other things on the angle of the track in the trainstation.
  • the angle that forms transversely the track plan with respect to the horizontal at the boarding / disembarking station may be higher or less than 110 °.
  • this angle will be chosen substantially equal to the angle between the plane of the seat back and the track plan in the vehicle travel position, so as to allow easy disembarkation / embarkation of passengers.
  • chassis 4 can be produced in one piece with a single pair of bogies as in the case of the vehicle described in patent no. US 5,979,333.
  • the ball positioning crown 12 can be replaced by any other suitable device allowing the rotation of the seat support element.
  • Number of passengers of a vehicle can of course also be less than or greater than four.
