Description

TECHNISCHES GEBIETTECHNICAL AREA

Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf ein Fahrgeschäft mit wenigstens zwei Fahrgastaufnahmen, und einer Fahrstrecke, entlang der das Fahrzeug bewegbar angeordnet ist.The invention relates to a ride with at least two passenger seats, and a driving distance along which the vehicle is movably arranged.

STAND DER TECHNIKSTATE OF THE ART

Fahrgeschäfte für Vergnügungsparks, Volksfeste, Promotion-Veranstaltungen, etc., sind in einer Vielzahl von Ausführungsformen bekannt. Achterbahnen erfreuen sich dabei besonderer Beliebtheit. Die Fahrzeuge einer Achterbahn können mit hoher Geschwindigkeit durch eine Vielzahl spannender Fahrfiguren hindurch bewegt werden. Durch eine interessante Streckenführung mit Fahrfiguren wie Loopings, Corkscrews, steilen Anstiegen und Gefällen, sowie ein daran angepasstes Geschwindigkeitsprofil kann beim Benutzer Spannung und Nervenkitzel erzeugt werden.Rides for amusement parks, folk festivals, promotional events, etc., are known in a variety of embodiments. Roller coasters are particularly popular. The vehicles of a roller coaster can be moved at high speed through a variety of exciting driving figures. Through an interesting route with driving figures such as loops, corkscrews, steep climbs and slopes, as well as a speed profile adapted to it can be created with the user tension and thrill.

Es ist auch eine Vielzahl von Fahrgeschäften bekannt, in denen die Fahrgäste sitzend aufgenommen sind. Dies ist zwar die bequemste und auch sicherste Methode der Aufnahme. Die Fahrgäste können beispielsweise angegurtet werden, um ein Herausfallen oder Aussteigen der Fahrgäste aus der Fahrgastaufnahme zu verhindern.There are also a variety of rides known in which the passengers are taken sitting. Although this is the most comfortable and safest method of recording. For example, the passengers may be belted to prevent the passengers from falling out or getting off the passenger seat.

Um die Sicherheit zu erhöhen, werden bei sitzender Aufnahme in gondelartigen Transportvorrichtungen, wie Sesselliften, Fußauflagen bzw. Bodenteile unter den Füßen des Fahrgasts angeordnet, um die Sicherheit zu erhöhen und den Fahrkomfort zu steigern.To increase safety, seated cradle-type transport devices such as chairlifts, footrests and floor sections are placed under the passenger's feet for increased safety and ride comfort.

Bei Fahrgeschäften sind außer der Sicherheit noch weitere Aspekte entscheidend, insbesondere das Fahrvergnügen. So kann es dazu führen, dass Sicherheitseinrichtungen genau das erstrebte Fahrgefühl und die damit zusammenhängende Illusion zerstören. So senken deutlich sichtbare und spürbare Sicherheitsvorrichtungen die Spannung der Fahrt.For rides, other aspects besides safety are crucial, especially driving pleasure. This can lead to security devices striving for exactly what they want Destroying the driving experience and the associated illusion. Clearly visible and noticeable safety devices reduce the tension of the ride.

Insbesondere Fußauflagen, die im Sichtbereich oder sogar genau in Blickrichtung des Fahrgastes angeordnet sind, zerstören die Illusion einer frei schwebenden Fahrt in bestimmter Höhe ohne Absicherung unterhalb des Insassen.In particular footrests, which are arranged in the field of view or even in the exact direction of the passenger, destroy the illusion of a free-floating ride at a certain height without protection below the occupant.

AUFGABE DER ERFINDUNGOBJECT OF THE INVENTION

Ausgehend davon besteht die Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung darin, den Fahrspaß eines Fahrgeschäfts unter Berücksichtigung von Sicherheitsaspekten zu erhöhen.Based on this, the object of the present invention is to increase the driving pleasure of a driving business, taking into account safety aspects.

TECHNISCHE LÖSUNGTECHNICAL SOLUTION

Diese Aufgabe wird gelöst durch die Bereitstellung eines Fahrgeschäfts gemäß dem Anspruch 1. Vorteilhafte Ausführungen der Erfindung ergeben sich aus den Merkmalen der abhängigen Ansprüche.This object is achieved by providing a ride according to claim 1. Advantageous embodiments of the invention will become apparent from the features of the dependent claims.

Ein erfindungsgemäßes Fahrgeschäft umfasst wenigstens ein Fahrzeug mit wenigstens zwei Fahrgastaufnahmen, und einer Fahrstrecke, entlang der das Fahrzeug bewegbar angeordnet ist. Die erste Fahrgastaufnahme ist mit einer Fußauflage für den darin aufgenommenen Passagier und die zweite Fahrgastaufnahme ohne Fußauflage für den darin aufgenommenen Passagier ausgebildet.An inventive ride comprises at least one vehicle with at least two passenger seats, and a route along which the vehicle is movably arranged. The first passenger seat is formed with a footrest for the passenger received therein and the second passenger seat without a footrest for the passenger received therein.

Auf einer Führungseinrichtung des Fahrgeschäfts ist wenigstens ein Fahrzeug, z.B. ein Zug, positioniert und zwangsgeführt entlang der Führungseinrichtung bewegbar. Die Sitze sind oberhalb (d. h. auf einem Niveau oberhalb) der Schiene angeordnet.On a guide device of the ride, at least one vehicle, e.g. a train, positioned and positively guided along the guide means movable. The seats are located above (i.e., at a level above) the rail.

Vorzugsweise weist das Fahrgeschäft wenigstens eine Führungseinrichtung zur Führung des Fahrzeugs entlang der Fahrstrecke auf. Das Fahrgestell ist in der Regel so ausgelegt, dass es zwar entlang der Strecke (also in einer Dimension) frei bewegbar ist, jedoch hinsichtlich der anderen Freiheitsgrade zwangsgeführt ist und insbesondere nicht von der Fahrstrecke abheben kann. Auf diese Weise ist es möglich, dass auch ein Looping durchfahren werden kann, ohne dass das motorbetriebene Fahrzeug unbeabsichtigt abstürzt.Preferably, the ride on at least one guide device for guiding the vehicle along the route. The chassis is usually designed to be that way though along the route (that is, in one dimension) is freely movable, but is constrained in terms of other degrees of freedom and in particular can not stand out from the route. In this way, it is possible that a looping can be passed through without the motorized vehicle accidentally crashes.

In einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform der Erfindung umfasst die Führungseinrichtung Schienen zur schienengebundenen Bewegung des Fahrgestells entlang der Fahrstrecke. In der Regel bilden, wie bei herkömmlichen Achterbahnen, zwei parallele Schienen einen Schienenstrang.In a preferred embodiment of the invention, the guide device rails for rail-bound movement of the chassis along the route. As a rule, as with conventional roller coasters, two parallel rails form a rail track.

Zwei oder mehrere Fahrzeuge können aneinander gekoppelt sein und so einen Zug bilden.Two or more vehicles can be coupled together to form a train.

Die erste Fahrgastaufnahme ist insbesondere oberhalb der Führungseinrichtung und die zweite Fahrgastaufnahme seitlich der Führungseinrichtung angeordnet. Damit hat die erste Fahrgastaufnahme eine Fußauflage, die Sicherheit für die Füße und Beine der direkt oberhalb der Schiene aufgenommenen Fahrgäste bietet. Außerdem wird ein Blick direkt auf die Schienen verhindert. Je nach Sitzplatz bietet dieses Fahrgeschäft somit unterschiedliche Fahrerlebnisse.The first passenger seat is arranged in particular above the guide device and the second passenger seat laterally of the guide device. Thus, the first passenger seat has a footrest, which provides safety for the feet and legs of the passengers received directly above the rail. In addition, a view is prevented directly on the rails. Depending on the seat, this ride offers different driving experiences.

Beispielsweise und insbesondere können zwei innere Sitze und zwei äußere Sitze in einer Viererreihe nebeneinander angeordnet sein. Die beiden inneren Sitze jeder 4er-Reihe sind normal mit Fußauflage unter den Füssen der Fahrgäste (z. B. Bodenblech) ausgestaltet, bei den beiden äußeren Sitzen fehlt das Bodenblech, so dass dort ein so genanntes "Floorless"-Fahrgefühl erlebt werden kann.For example and in particular, two inner seats and two outer seats may be arranged side by side in a row of four. The two inner seats of each row of 4 are normally designed with a footrest under the feet of the passengers (eg floor panel), while the two outer seats lack the floor panel, so that a so-called "floorless" feeling can be experienced there.

Bei bekannten Floorless-Coastern ist, da die Schienenkonstruktion unter den Floorless-Sitzen verläuft, im Bahnhof für das Ein- und Aussteigen eine aufwändige bewegliche Ein- bzw. Ausstiegsplattform erforderlich. Bei der vorliegenden Erfindung dagegen verläuft die Schiene nur unter einem Teil der Sitze (meist unter den inneren Sitzen der Reihe), so dass der Bahnsteig bis unter die beiden äußeren Floorless-Sitze hereinreichen kann und damit jede Mechanik im Bahnhof entfallen kann. Für die äußeren Sitze ergibt sich dadurch ein Einsteigen wie es gewöhnlich nur bei Inverted-Coastern üblich ist, bei dem die Sitze oberhalb der Schiene angeordnet sind. Bei Inverted Coastern hängen die Sitze unterhalb der Schiene. Daher ist, wie bei den zweiten Fahrgastaufnahmen, eine Ein- und Aussteigen auf einen Bahnhof möglich, der Plattformen unterhalb der zweiten Fahrgastaufnahmen, dagegen nicht unterhalb der ersten Fahrgastaufnahmen, sondern neben den ersten Fahrgastaufnahmen (wenn auch unterhalb von deren Sitzfläche angeordnet) aufweist. Das Ein-/Aussteigen von den ersten Fahrgastaufnahmen erfolgt über die Fußauflage der entsprechenden ersten Fahrgastaufnahme und über die Plattform, die unterhalb der oder einer benachbarten zweiten Fahrgastaufnahme angeordnet ist.In known floorless coasters, since the rail construction runs underneath the floorless seats, an elaborate movable entry and exit platform is required in the station for getting in and out. In the present invention, however, the rail runs only under a part of the seats (usually under the inner seats of the series), so that the platform can reach under the two outer floorless seats and thus can be omitted any mechanics in the station. For the outer seats, this results in a boarding as it is usual usually only in inverted coasters, in which the seats are arranged above the rail. For inverted coasters, the seats hang below the rail. Therefore, as with the second passenger recordings, it is possible to get in and out of a train station Platforms below the second passenger recordings, however, not below the first passenger recordings, but next to the first passenger recordings (although arranged below the seat surface). The entry / exit of the first passenger recordings via the footrest of the corresponding first passenger seat and the platform, which is arranged below the or an adjacent second passenger seat.

Ein weiterer Vorteil unserer Idee gegenüber bekannten Floorless-Ausführungen besteht darin, dass die ersten Fahrgastaufnahmen nicht höher gesetzt werden müssen, was normalerweise aufgrund des erforderlichen Mindestabstands zwischen Schiene und Füßen notwendig ist. Damit ergeben sich bei Anbringung eines Bodenblechs oder einer ähnlichen Auflage ein tieferer Schwerpunkt und günstigere dynamische Fahreigenschaften, trotz ausreichender Sicherheit für die Fahrgäste.Another advantage of our idea over known floorless designs is that the first passenger seats do not need to be raised, which is usually necessary due to the required minimum distance between rail and feet. This results in mounting a floor panel or similar support a lower center of gravity and more favorable dynamic driving characteristics, despite sufficient safety for passengers.

Im Ergebnis ergeben sich dabei je nach Sitzwahl wenigstens zwei unterschiedliche Fahrerlebnisse. Es ist zudem keine aufwändige Mechanik im Bahnhof erforderlich, um Ein- und Ausstiegsplattformen bereitzustellen, die sowohl von den ersten als auch von den zweiten Fahrgastaufnahmen zugänglich sind. Diese befinden sich unterhalb des Fußbereichs eines in der zweiten Fahrgastaufnahme aufgenommenen Fahrgasts. Für das Fahrzeug insgesamt besteht keine Notwendigkeit eines erhöhten Schwerpunkts aufgrund eines erforderlichen Sicherheitsabstands zwischen den Füßen der in des ersten Fahrgastaufnahme aufgenommenen Fahrgasts und der Schiene.As a result, depending on the seat choice, at least two different driving experiences result. There is also no need for sophisticated mechanics in the station to provide entry and exit platforms that are accessible from both the first and second passenger receptacles. These are located below the foot area of a passenger seated in the second passenger seat. For the vehicle as a whole, there is no need for an increased center of gravity due to a required safety distance between the feet of the passenger seated in the first passenger compartment and the rail.

Die erste Fahrgastaufnahme und die zweite Fahrgastaufnahme können auf gleicher Höhe oder höhenversetzt nebeneinander angeordnet sein. In der zweiten genannten Variante können die außen liegenden Sitze in unterschiedlicher Höhe gegenüber den über der Schiene angeordneten "mittleren" Sitzen angeordnet sein (z.B. niedriger), wodurch eine weitere Schwerpunktssenkung des Fahrzeugs möglich ist. Diese Schwerpunktsenkung führt zu besserer Fahrdynamik und einem verbesserten Fahrgefühl.The first passenger seat and the second passenger seat can be arranged at the same height or offset in height next to each other. In the second variant, the outboard seats may be located at different heights from the "middle" seats located above the rail (e.g., lower), allowing further center of gravity lowering of the vehicle. This center of gravity reduction leads to better driving dynamics and an improved driving experience.

Die zweite Fahrgastaufnahme kann in Bewegungsrichtung versetzt zur ersten Fahrgastaufnahme angeordnet sein.The second passenger seat can be arranged in the direction of movement offset from the first passenger seat.

Insbesondere ist die zweite Fahrgastaufnahme relativ zur Bewegungsrichtung des Fahrzeugs nach hinten versetzt angeordnet. Auf diese Weise wird das Aussteigen aus der ersten Fahrgastaufnahme über eine unter die zweite Fahrgastaufnahme im Bahnhof ragende Plattform vereinfacht. Die Fahrgäste können insbesondere gleichzeitig zu einer Seite (relativ zum Fahrzeug) ein-/aussteigen. Der erste Fahrgast gelangt auf die Plattform, die sich bis zur Fußauflage der ersten Fahrgastaufnahme nach vorne erstreckt, in den Bereich der Fußauflage und kann bequem auf diese treten bzw. von dieser auf die Plattform gelangen. Der zweite Fahrgast setzt sich direkt in die an derselben Plattform angeordnete zweite Fahrgastaufnahme.In particular, the second passenger seat is arranged offset relative to the direction of movement of the vehicle to the rear. In this way, getting out of the first passenger seat is facilitated via a projecting below the second passenger seat in the station platform. In particular, passengers can simultaneously get in and out of one side (relative to the vehicle). The first passenger enters the area of the foot rest on the platform, which extends forward to the footrest of the first passenger seat, and can easily step on it or get onto the platform from there. The second passenger sits down directly in the second passenger seat located on the same platform.

Es ist bevorzugt, dass das Fahrgeschäft einen an der Fahrstrecke angeordneten Ein- / Ausstiegsbahnhof aufweist, der wenigstens eine Ein- / Ausstiegsplattform aufweist, die unter der zweiten Fahrgastaufnahme angeordnet ist. Sie ragt nicht unter die erste(n) Fahrgastaufnahme(n). Unter diesen befindet sich schließlich die Führungseinrichtung (Schienen). Die Ein- / Ausstiegsplattform erstreckt sich somit nicht unter die erste Fahrgastaufnahme.It is preferable for the ride to have an entry / exit station arranged on the route, which has at least one entry / exit platform which is arranged below the second passenger admission. It does not protrude below the first passenger seat (s). Among these is finally the guide device (rails). The entry / exit platform thus does not extend below the first passenger seat.

Das Fahrgeschäft kann insbesondere mehrere nebeneinander angeordnete Fahrgastaufnahmen aufweisen, von denen wenigstens eine Fahrgastaufnahme die erste Fahrgastaufnahme und wenigstens eine Fahrgastaufnahme die zweite Fahrgastaufnahme ist. Es existiert also eine Gruppe nebeneinander angeordneter Fahrgastaufnahmen, von denen wenigstens eine über der Führungseinrichtung, und wenigstens eine neben (oberhalb, auf gleicher Höhe oder unterhalb) der Führungseinrichtung angeordnet ist.The ride may in particular have a plurality of passenger seats arranged side by side, of which at least one passenger seat is the first passenger seat and at least one passenger seat is the second passenger seat. Thus, there is a group of passenger seats arranged side by side, of which at least one is arranged above the guide device, and at least one next to (above, at the same height or below) the guide device.

In einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform weist das Fahrgeschäft wenigstens eine erste und zwei beidseitig der ersten Fahrgastaufnahme angeordnete zweite Fahrgastaufnahmen auf. Es können auch zwei nebeneinander angeordnete erste Fahrgastaufnahmen vorgesehen sein. Neben jeder der ersten Fahrgastaufnahmen ist an jeweils einer Seite eine zweite Fahrgastaufnahme ohne Fußauflage angeordnet.In a preferred embodiment, the ride has at least a first and two arranged on both sides of the first passenger receiving second passenger recordings. It can also be provided two juxtaposed first passenger recordings. In addition to each of the first passenger recordings, a second passenger seat without footrest is arranged on each side.

Das Fahrgeschäft kann einen an der Fahrstrecke angeordneten Ein- / Ausstiegsbahnhof aufweisen, der wenigstens zwei Ein- / Ausstiegsplattformen aufweist, von denen beidseitig der ersten Fahrgastaufnahme eine unter jeweils einer der zweiten Fahrgastaufnahmen angeordnet ist. Kernpunkt der Erfindung ist die Kombination zweier unterschiedlicher Konzepte bzgl. der Gestaltung der Fahrgastaufnahmen in einem Fahrzeug, nämlich mit und ohne Fußauflage, je nach Position des Sitzes.The ride can have a arranged on the route entry / exit station, which has at least two entry / exit platforms, of which on both sides of the first passenger receiving one is arranged under each one of the second passenger recordings. The core of the invention is the combination of two different concepts regarding the design of the passenger seats in a vehicle, namely with and without footrest, depending on the position of the seat.

BESCHREIBUNG BEVORZUGTER AUSFÜHRUNGSBEISPIELEDESCRIPTION OF PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

Die Figur 1 zeigt eine Sitzreihe 10 des erfindungsgemäßen Fahrgeschäfts 1 in einer Draufsicht. Die zwei mittleren Sitze weisen jeweils ein Fußblech 11 auf. Dieses erlaubt nicht nur den leichten Einstieg in die beiden Sitze, insbesondere oberhalb einer Schiene, sondern vermittelt ein bestimmtes Fahrgefühl. Die Beine des Fahrgastes sind gegenüber den Schienen während der Fahrt abgeschirmt und dadurch geschützt.The FIG. 1 shows a row of seats 10 of the ride 1 according to the invention in a plan view. The two middle seats each have a toe plate 11. This not only allows easy entry into the two seats, especially above a rail, but gives a certain driving experience. The passenger's legs are shielded from the rails while driving and thereby protected.

Die Figur 2 zeigt zwei Sitzreihen 10 eines Zugs in einer Anordnung relativ zu den Schienen 21 des Fahrgeschäfts 1. Das Fahrzeug ist als Zug ausgebildet, wobei die Sitzreihen 10 in ihrer Mitte gekoppelt sind. Die beiden mittleren Sitze jeder Reihe 10 sind oberhalb der Schienen 21 der Fahrtstrecke angeordnet. Vorzugsweise weisen alle mittleren Sitze, wie anhand der Figur 1 dargestellt, Fußbleche 11 auf. Die äußeren Sitze haben jedoch keine Fußbleche 11, sind also als sog. "Floorless"-Passagieraufnahmen ausgebildet. Die Passagiere empfinden auf diesen Sitzen ein anderes Fahrgefühl als auf den mittleren Sitzen, da ihre Beine ohne Fußblech 11 frei nach unten hängen. Zudem befinden sich die äußeren Sitze seitlich versetzt zu den Schienen 21. Der Fahrgast hat somit das Gefühl, in seinem Sitz frei über dem Boden zu schweben, wobei das Fehlen eines Fußblechs 11 den Effekt verstärkt. Der Passagier hat darüber hinaus freie Sicht an seinen Beinen vorbei nach unten.The FIG. 2 shows two rows of seats 10 of a train in an arrangement relative to the rails 21 of the ride 1. The vehicle is formed as a train, with the rows of seats 10 are coupled in its center. The two middle seats of each row 10 are arranged above the rails 21 of the route. Preferably, all middle seats, as shown by the FIG. 1 shown, foot plates 11 on. However, the outer seats have no Fußbleche 11, so are designed as so-called. "Floorless" -Passagieraufnahmen. The passengers experience a different driving feeling on these seats than on the middle seats, since their legs hang freely without the toe plate 11. In addition, the outer seats are laterally offset from the rails 21. The passenger thus has the feeling of floating in his seat freely above the ground, the Lack of a foot plate 11 enhances the effect. The passenger also has a free view down his legs.

Die Figur 3 zeigt eine weitere Ansicht des erfindungsgemäßen Fahrgeschäfts 1. Ein Wagen bewegt sich auf Schienen 21 entlang der Fahrstrecke. Auf dem Wagen 2 sind nebeneinander jeweils vier Sitze angeordnet. Die inneren Sitze weisen ein Fußblech 11 auf, die äußeren 12 sind "Floorless"-Sitze.The FIG. 3 shows a further view of the driving business according to the invention 1. A carriage moves on rails 21 along the route. On the carriage 2 four seats are arranged side by side. The inner seats have a toe plate 11, the outer 12 are "floorless" seats.

In einem Bahnhof (nicht dargestellt) fahren die äußeren Sitze über eine Plattform, auf die der Fahrgast (nach dem Entfernen der Sicherheitshalterung) direkt treten kann. Die Plattformen erstrecken sich also beidseitig im Bahnhofsbereich zur Führungseinrichtung (Schienen) hin, bis neben die "mittleren" Sitze, die über der Führungseinrichtung angeordnet sind und ein Bodenblech aufweisen. Der Fahrgast kann hier vom Bodenblech auf eine benachbarte Plattform treten und so ein-/aussteigen.In a train station (not shown), the outer seats ride over a platform that the passenger can step on (after removing the safety bracket) directly. The platforms thus extend on both sides in the station area towards the guide device (rails), until, in addition to the "middle" seats, which are arranged above the guide device and have a base plate. The passenger can step from the floor panel to an adjacent platform and thus get on / off.
