A rollercoaster amusement device adapted to provide for the passengers a ride wherein the passengers experience at least a portion of the ride in a racing position, the amusement device wherein an endless guide structure at least including multiple curves, one or more carriages displaceable along the guide structure, a passenger assembly associated with a carriage, said passenger assembly being adapted to accommodate at least one passenger such that said passenger experiences at least a portion of the ride in a racing position, a station along said guide structure allowing the passenger to board the passenger assembly. The passenger assembly includes a frame that is connected to the carriage, the frame at least being provided with: a chest support, a back restraining member, and a leg restraining device for each leg, such that in the racing position: the passenger's head is directed forward, the passenger's trunk is resting with its chest side on the chest support, the back restraining member restrains motion of the passenger away from the chest support, the leg restraining devices each hold the respective leg such that the upper leg is angled downward with respect to the trunk and the leg is bend at the knee so that the lower leg is angled rearward with respect to the upper leg. A leg restraining device for restraining a leg includes an upper leg retention member adapted to engage at least the front side of the upper leg, a lower leg retention member adapted to engage at least the front side of the lower leg, so that the upper and lower leg retention members retain the leg while bend at the knee.

An amusement device comprising at least one holder for a person and a securing device for detachably securing a person in the holder. The holder comprises at least a seat and a backrest. The securing device includes at least two straps, first ends of which are positioned near a part of the backrest remote from the seat and second ends of which are positioned near the seat. The straps are each fitted with a lock plate between said first and said second ends, which lock plates can be detachably locked together. The straps furthermore each include at least one spring element, wherein the straps can be moved towards the holder against spring force.

An amusement ride includes at least one passenger carrier, an amusement ride guide structure and a launch system adapted to accelerate the at least one passenger carrier from a starting position. The launch system includes a launch guide structure having a curvature, a launch arm rotatable about a rotation axis, an engagement device for providing a temporary connection between the launch arm and the at least one passenger carrier during the launch, and a launch drive providing the launch arm with an angular velocity. In the launch system, the radial distance between the engagement device and the launch arm support is variable such that portions of the launch guide structure have a deviating radius, or the distance in axial direction between the engagement device and the launch arm support is variable such that portions of the launch guide structure have curvatures perpendicular to the surface of rotation.

This invention relates to an amusement ride installation, comprising at least one passenger carrier (2), an amusement ride guide structure (3) and a launch system (1) adapted to accelerate the at least one passenger carrier from a starting position. The launch system comprises a launch guide structure having a curvature (c), a launch arm (4) rotatable about a rotation axis (6), engagement means (7) for providing a temporary connection between the launch arm and the at least one passenger carrier during the launch, and launch drive means providing the launch arm with an angular velocity. In the launch system according to the invention the radial distance between the engagement means and the launch arm support (5) is variable such that portions of the launch guide structure have a deviating radius, or the distance in axial direction between the engagement means and the launch arm support is variable such that portions of the launch guide structure have curvatures perpendicular to the surface of rotation, such as slopes or banking.
摘要:
An amusement device comprising a guide structure forming an endless track, along which a vehicle capable of accommodating at least one person can travel, whereby a person present in the vehicle extends substantially parallel to the track during operation. The person present in the vehicle lies with his back towards the track and with his face directed away from the track. The person's view is not impeded by other vehicles and he can only see the track itself when the turns his head.
摘要:
An amusement device comprising a guide construction forming a track, along which a vehicle, in which at least one person can be seated, is movable in a direction of transport. A holder of the vehicle, which accommodates said person, can be tilted about a tilting axis from a first position, in which the person present in the vehicle includes an angle with the track, to a second position, in which the person who is present in the vehicle in use extends substantially parallel to the track, and vice versa. The holder is positioned above the track in said first position, whereby the tilting axis is located on a side remote from said person's head.
