Abstract
Description
- More precisely, the present invention relates to a merry-go-round for children, to which the following description will make explicit reference without thereby losing generality.
- As is known some rotating merry-go-rounds for children comprise: a supporting frame which is structured for resting stably anchored on the ground; a central hub which is fixed in an axially rotating manner on the top of the supporting frame, so as to be able to rotate about a substantially vertical reference axis; a number of swingable supporting arms which jut out from the central hub in a radial direction, are angularly equally spaced about the central hub, and are hinged to the central hub so that each arms is able to rotate about a horizontal articulation axis locally perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the supporting arm, so as to be able to swing while remaining on a vertical lying plane which substantially intersects the hub rotation axis; and a number of passenger-holding gondolas or vessels which are dimensioned so as to accommodate one or more people, and are each rigidly fixed directly to the distal end of a respective supporting arm.
- The merry-go-rounds of the type described above are also provided with an engine unit structured so as to be able, on command, to drive into rotation the central hub about its vertical rotation axis, and with a number of double-acting hydraulic or pneumatic pistons each of which is interposed between the central hub and a corresponding supporting arm so as to be able to rotate, on command, the corresponding supporting arm for raising or lowering the passenger-holding gondola or vessel integral therewith.
- Aim of the present invention is therefore to realize a new model of the merry-go-round for children structurally simpler than those described above.
- In compliance with the above aim, according to the present invention there is provided a merry-go-round as defined in
claim 1 and preferably, though not necessarily, in any one of claims dependent thereon. - The present invention will now be described with reference to the accompanying drawings showing a non-limiting embodiment thereof, wherein:
-
Figure 1 is a perspective view of a merry-go-round realized in accordance with the teachings of the present invention, with parts removed for clarity; -
Figure 2 is a front view of theFigure 1 merry-go-round, with parts in section and parts removed for clarity; whereas -
Figure 3 shows in enlarged scale a detail of the upper part of theFigure 2 merry-go-round. - With reference to
Figures 1 ,2 and3 ,reference number 1 indicates as a whole a merry-go-round preferably, though not necessarily, for children of the type comprising: - a rigid supporting
frame 2 which is structured for resting stably anchored on the ground; - a
central hub 3 which is fixed in axially rotating manner on the top of the supportingframe 2, so as to be able to rotate about a preferably substantially vertical reference axis R; - a plurality of swingable supporting
arms 4 which jut out from thecentral hub 3 in a substantially radial direction, are angularly equally spaced about thecentral hub 3, and are hinged to thecentral hub 3 so as to rotate each about a respective horizontal reference axis A locally substantially perpendicular to the longitudinal axis L of the supportingarm 4, so as to be able to freely swing while remaining on a substantially vertical lying plane which is preferably oriented so as to intersect the rotation axis R of the hub; - a number of passive elastic supporting
assemblies 5, each of which is interposed between thecentral hub 3 and a corresponding supportingarm 4, and is structured so as to elastically maintain the corresponding supportingarm 4 in a substantially horizontal resting position ; and - a number of passenger-holding gondolas or
vessels 6 which are dimensioned so as to accommodate one or more people, and are hanged each on thedistal end 4a of a corresponding supportingarm 4. - More precisely, each passenger-holding gondola or
vessel 6 is hanged down below thedistal end 4a of the corresponding supportingarm 4 by means of a substantially vertical connection rod orstem 7, which has the lower end fixed to the body of the passenger-holding gondola orvessel 6, and has theupper end 7a directly hinged on thedistal end 4a of the supportingarm 4, so as to allow theconnection rod 7 and the passenger-holding gondola orvessels 6 to freely swing about a reference axis B locally substantially parallel to the rotation axis A of the same supportingarm 4, i.e. substantially horizontal and locally substantially perpendicular to the longitudinal axis L of the supportingarm 4. - In other words, the
upper end 7a of theconnection rod 7 is fixed on thedistal end 4a of the supportingarm 4 by way of an hinge which allows thevertical rod 7 and the relative passenger-holding gondola orvessel 6 to freely swing while remaining substantially parallel to the swinging plane of the corresponding supportingarm 4. - With reference to
Figure 2 , the merry-go-round 1 is further provided with anengine unit 8 which is arranged so as to drive into rotation thecentral hub 3 about its rotation axis R, and with animpulsive lifting mechanism 9 which is structured for momentarily and suddenly pushing each supportingarm 4 upwards when the supportingarm 4 is located in a predetermined angular position of its circular orbit. - More precisely, in the example shown, the lifting
impulsive mechanism 9 is preferably placed on a rigid supportingframe 2, beside thecentral hub 3, and is structured so as to temporarily push upwards the supportingarm 4 that, while rotating about the axis R, is momentarily aligned above the same liftingimpulsive mechanism 8. - With reference to
Figures 1 ,2 and3 , in the example shown, in particular, the rigid supportingframe 2 preferably, though not necessarily, consists of a lattice structuredtower 2; whereas thecentral hub 3 is preferably, though not necessarily, fitted in an axially rotating manner to a horizontal fifth wheel which is rigidly fixed to the top of the lattice structuredtower 2, coaxial with the rotation axis R of the hub. - The
engine unit 8 instead preferably, though not necessarily, consists of an electrically-operated gearedmotor 8 which is fixed in a vertical position to thetower 2 immediately below the fifth wheel that supports thecentral hub 3, so that thepinion 8a of the electrically-operated gearedmotor 8 can protrude from the top of thetower 2, to the side of the fifth wheel, and permanently meshing on aring gear 10 which, in turn, is rigidly fixed to the lower part of thecentral hub 3, coaxial with the rotation axis R of the hub. - With reference to
Figures 2 and3 , in the example shown each elastic supportingassembly 5 instead preferably comprises: - a swingable supporting
bracket 11 which juts out from thecentral hub 3 in a substantially horizontal direction, immediately beneath the corresponding supportingarm 4, is oriented so as to be locally substantially parallel to the same supportingarm 4, and is finally hinged to thecentral hub 3 so as to rotate about an articulation axis C locally substantially parallel to the rotation axis A of the supportingarm 4, so as to freely swing on the same swinging plane of the supportingarm 4; - a
stop bumper 12 positioned on the supportingbracket 11 and/or on thecentral hub 3 so as to prevent the supportingbracket 11 from being lowered below a substantially horizontal resting position; and - an
elastic suspension member 13 which is stably interposed between the supportingbracket 11 and the immediately overhanging supportingarm 4, and is dimensioned/structured so as to floatingly maintain the supportingarm 4 in its substantially horizontal resting position when the corresponding supportingbracket 11 is in turn arranged in the respective substantially horizontal resting position. - In the example shown, in particular, the
elastic suspension member 13 preferably consists of a bellowspneumatic spring 13, and the elastic supportingassembly 5 is preferably provided with asecond stop bumper 14 which is arranged on the supportingbracket 11, beside the bellowspneumatic spring 13, i.e. theelastic suspension member 13, and is dimensioned so as to prevent the supportingarm 4 from violently slamming, while it freely swings about the axis A, onto the supportingbracket 11 after having fully crushed/compressed the bellowspneumatic spring 13. - With reference to
Figure 2 , theimpulsive lifting mechanism 9 in the example shown is instead preferably, though not necessarily, formed by a number offree guide wheels 15, each fixed in a freely rotatable manner below a respective supportingbracket 11, preferably near the distal end of the same supportingbracket 11; and by a small ramp orsky jump 16 which is arranged on top of the rigid supportingframe 2, i.e. on the top of the lattice structuredtower 2, beside thecentral hub 3, so as to intersect the circular trajectory followed by thevarious guide wheels 15 fixed beneath the supportingbrackets 11, and is dimensioned/structured so as to force theguide wheel 15 which temporarily crosses the ramp orsky jump 16 while rotating about the rotation axis R of the hub, to suddenly and temporarily push upwards the corresponding supportingbracket 11 so as to launch upwards with force the supportingarm 4 that rests on the same supportingbracket 11 via theelastic suspension member 13. - With reference to
Figures 2 and3 , preferably, though not necessarily, the merry-go-round 1 finally presents, for each swingable supportingarm 4, a respectiveoscillations limiting device 18 which is structured so as to maintain below a predetermined limit angle the width of the oscillations that theconnection rod 7 can make about the axis B, and/or of continuously damping/slowing down the oscillating movement of theconnection rod 7 about axis B. - In the example shown, in particular, the
oscillations limiting device 18 preferably comprises a double effecthydraulic damper 19 which is fixed on the supportingarm 4 so as to have its mobile shaft 19a locally substantially parallel to the longitudinal axis L of the arm; and areaction strut 20 which is adapted to mechanically connect theconnection rod 7 to thehydraulic damper 19 so as to transmit the oscillating movement of theconnection rod 7 to the mobile shaft 19a of thehydraulic damper 19. - In other words, the
reaction strut 20 is adapted to convert the oscillating movement of theconnection rod 7 into a reciprocating rectilinear movement of the mobile shaft 19a, which is systematically counteracted by thehydraulic damper 19. - More in detail, in the example shown, the
reaction strut 20 has a first axial end hinged to theupper end 7a of theconnection rod 7 in an eccentric position with respect to the rotation axis B of the same rod, it extends along the supportingarm 4 parallel to the longitudinal axis L of the arm, and finally has the second axial end directly hinged on the mobile shaft 19a of thehydraulic damper 19 so as to transmit the oscillating movement of theconnection rod 7 to the mobile shaft 19a. - The functioning of the merry-go-
round 1 can be easily inferred from the above description and does not require further explanation. - The advantages offered by the particular structure of the merry-go-
round 1 are evident. The fact that the passenger-holding gondolas orvessels 6 are able to freely swing with respect to the corresponding supportingarms 4, together with the fact that each supportingarm 4 continues to freely swing about the resting position during the rotation of thecentral hub 3 about the rotation axis R, enables the passenger-holding gondolas orvessels 6 to perform particularly pleasing random oscillating movements, without the need of having to lift/lower, on command and in a selective way, theindividual supporting shaft 4 by way of special double acting hydraulic or pneumatic cylinders. - Clearly, changes and variations may be made to the merry-go-
round 1 above described as described herein without, however, departing from the scope of the present invention. - For example, in a first not-shown alternative embodiment, the
oscillations limiting device 18 may comprise, in combination with or alternatively to thehydraulic damper 19 and to thereaction strut 20, two stop bumpers made of rubber or other elastically deformable material, which are preferably fixed/positioned on thedistal end 4a of the supportingarm 4, on opposite sides of theconnection rod 7 on the swinging plane thereof, so as to prevent the tilt angle of theconnection rod 7 from exceeding a predetermined threshold value. - In a second not-shown alternative embodiment, instead, the
upper end 7a of theconnection rod 7 can be fixed to thedistal end 4a of the supportingarm 4 by way of a ball joint or other mechanical member adapted to allow thevertical rod 7 and the relative passenger-holding gondola orvessels 6 to freely swing on any swinging plane, i.e. without necessarily remaining parallel to the swinging plane of the supportingarm 4.
