Description
Die Erfindung betrifft ein schienengebundenes Fahrzeug für ein Vergnügungsfahrgeschäft der im Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1 genannten Art.The invention relates to a rail vehicle for an amusement ride referred to in the preamble of claim 1 Art.
Die Erfindung geht hierbei von einem aus
Dieses Fahrgeschäft weist auf Schienen geführte Fahrzeuge auf, die im Wesentlichen aus einem in Schienenrichtung bewegten Fahrwerk und einem an diesem drehbar gelagerten Oberwagen oder Oberteil bestehen, dessen Schwerpunkt im Abstand zur senkrechten Drehachse exzentrisch gelegen ist. Bei Durchfahren der Bahnschienen erfährt der Oberwagen in den Kurven aufgrund seiner exzentrischen Lagerung eine Zentrifugalkraft, die zu einer Drehbewegung des Oberwagens um die Achse führt. Zur Kontrolle des relativ komplizierten Drehverhaltens sind Dämpfungsvorrichtungen, z.B. mit Viskosedämpfung, Reibungsdämpfung oder mit Wirbelstrom arbeitende Dämpfungseinrichtungen erforderlich.This ride has guided on rails vehicles, which consist essentially of a moving in the rail direction chassis and a rotatably mounted on this superstructure or upper part, whose center of gravity is located eccentrically at a distance from the vertical axis of rotation. When passing through the railway tracks, the superstructure experiences in the curves due to its eccentric bearing a centrifugal force, which leads to a rotational movement of the superstructure about the axis. To control the relatively complicated rotational behavior, damping devices, e.g. required with viscous damping, friction damping or with eddy current damping devices.
Mit der vorliegenden Erfindung wird eine einfachere Lösung vorgeschlagen, bei welcher auf die nicht unproblematische exzentrische Lagerung des Oberwagens und damit auch einen Drehantrieb durch Fliehkräfte bewusst verzichtet wird.With the present invention, a simpler solution is proposed, in which deliberately omits the not unproblematic eccentric mounting of the superstructure and thus a rotary drive by centrifugal forces.
Nach dem Lösungsprinzip gemäß Anspruch 1 ist dem als Oberteil bezeichneten Oberwagen des Fahrzeuges ein Magnetsystem zugeordnet, das aus wenigstens einem Magneten und einem das Magnetfeld des Magneten durchlaufenden metallischen, vorzugsweise aus Aluminium oder Messing bestehenden Bremselement besteht. Hierbei ist der Magnet im Bereich der Schienenbahn ortfest angeordnet, während das Bremselement mit dem Oberteil des Fahrzeugs verbunden ist. Bei Fortbewegung des Fahrzeuges erzeugt das Magnetsystem nach dem Prinzip der Wirbelstrombremse einen auf das Oberteil wirkenden Verzögerungsimpuls, wodurch das Oberteil einen Drehimpuls erfährt.According to the solution principle according to claim 1, the upper part of the vehicle called superstructure of the vehicle is associated with a magnet system consisting of at least one magnet and a magnetic field of the magnet passing through metallic, preferably consists of aluminum or brass brake element. In this case, the magnet is arranged stationary in the region of the rail track, while the brake element is connected to the upper part of the vehicle. When the vehicle is moving, the magnet system generates a deceleration pulse acting on the upper part according to the principle of the eddy current brake, as a result of which the upper part experiences an angular momentum.
Aus
Bei diesem Karussell wird jedoch anders als bei dem erfindungsgemäßen Fahrgeschäft nicht die Drehbewegung des Fahrgastträgers, also des Oberteils, aus der Linearbewegung des Fahrzeugs abgeleitet.In this carousel, however, unlike the ride of the invention, not the rotational movement of the passenger carrier, ie the upper part, derived from the linear movement of the vehicle.
Das erfindungsgemäße Fahrzeug kann wie bei Achterbahnen durch Schwerkraft oder motorisch angetrieben sein.The vehicle according to the invention can be driven by gravity or by a motor, as in roller coasters.
Der gleiche Effekt ist erreichbar, wenn umgekehrt Bremselemente ortsfest im Bereich der Schienenbahn angeordnet sind und der Magnet mit dem Oberteil verbunden ist.The same effect can be achieved if, conversely, braking elements are arranged stationarily in the region of the rail track and the magnet is connected to the upper part.
Wie mit Anspruch 2 vorgeschlagen, kann das Magnetsystem entweder in Abhängigkeit von der Position des Fahrzeuges programmgesteuert oder vom im Fahrzeug befindlichen Fahrgast aktiv steuerbar sein. Hierdurch lassen sich Zeitpunkt und Ort bzw. Richtung und Geschwindigkeit der Drehung beeinflussen.As suggested in
Weist das Magnetsystem, wie mit Anspruch 3 vorgeschlagen Permanentmagnete auf, lässt sich die erläuterte Steuerung durch die mit Anspruch 5 vorgeschlagene Positionierung des Magneten realisieren.If the magnet system has permanent magnets as proposed in claim 3, the explained control can be realized by the positioning of the magnet proposed with claim 5.
Ist der Magnet nach dem Vorschlag gemäß Anspruch 6 ein Elektromagnet, kann die Steuerung durch entsprechende Bestromung seiner Erregerspule erfolgen.If the magnet according to the proposal according to claim 6, an electromagnet, the control can be done by appropriate energization of its field coil.
Bei einem bevorzugten Ausführungsbeispiel gemäß Anspruch 7 ist das Bremselement an der Unterseite des Fahrzeugsoberteils angebracht, während ortsfeste Magnete im Bereich der Schienenbahn im Wege dieses Bremselementes positioniert sind.In a preferred embodiment according to claim 7, the braking element is mounted on the underside of the vehicle upper part, while stationary magnets are positioned in the region of the rail track in the way of this braking element.
Ausgestaltungen dieses Bremselementes in Form einer Scheibe oder eines Ringes sind Gegenstand der Ansprüche 8 bis 11.Embodiments of this braking element in the form of a disc or a ring are the subject of claims 8 to 11.
Während ein kreisrundes oder ringförmiges Bremselement zu einer gleichmäßigen Verzögerung des Fahrzeugoberteiles führt, lässt sich mit einer von der Kreisform abweichenden Gestaltung z. B. gemäß den Ansprüchen 9 bis 11, eine vordefinierte Ausrichtung z.B. im Bereich langsamer Fahrbereiche oder auch im Bahnhofsbereich erreichen. So ist es von Vorteil, wenn das Fahrzeugoberteil, wie mit Anspruch 12 vorgeschlagen, z. B. im Bahnhofsbereich, eine Position einnimmt, welche das Ein- und Aussteigen von Fahrgästen ermöglicht oder zumindest erleichtert.While a circular or annular brake element leads to a uniform deceleration of the vehicle upper part, can be with a deviating from the circular shape z. According to claims 9 to 11, a predefined orientation e.g. reach in the area of slow driving areas or in the station area. Thus, it is advantageous if the vehicle upper part, as proposed by
