Definitions

  • the present invention relates to an amusement ride for the public, comprising a stationary track structure which runs along a track trajectory, a vehicle guided movably on the track structure along the track trajectory, the vehicle being electrically drivable by a linear motor, the linear motor having as motor components: at least one for generating a magnetic field that changes over time and space, a winding component that can be energized with a plurality of windings that can be energized, at least one electrical conductor and at least one reaction component, which interacts with the magnetic field of the at least one winding component to generate a force acting between the winding component and the reaction component along the path trajectory, wherein a motor component from the at least one winding component and the at least one reaction component is arranged stationarily on the track structure and the respective other motor component on the vehicle for common Same movement with the vehicle is arranged.
  • the stationary track structure can comprise a rail arrangement, a gully and the like, with the rail arrangement and/or gully being stationarily connected to the ground at least in sections via a floor-supported frame. Sections of the rail arrangement and/or water channel can also be arranged directly on the ground and connected to it.
  • the linear motor can be a linear synchronous motor.
  • the reaction component comprises a series of magnets following one another along a sequential direction, wherein along the following direction successive magnets have a different polarization from each other.
  • the magnets of the reaction component are preferably permanent magnets and the following direction is generally parallel at the location of the arrangement of the reaction component to the section of the path trajectory on which the reaction component is currently located. In the case of a curved section of the path trajectory, the parallelism generally applies to a tangent to the path trajectory.
  • the linear motor can also be a linear asynchronous motor.
  • the reaction component then comprises a plate-shaped electrical conductor in which eddy currents are induced in response to the magnetic field of the winding component, which in turn generate a reaction magnetic field which, in interaction with the magnetic field of the winding component, produces the force acting along the path trajectory.
  • the force acting between the winding component and the reaction component along the path trajectory can be an accelerating or a decelerating force, depending on the energization of the winding component.
  • at least one further force can act between the winding component and the reaction component in a different direction. However, this is not of interest here.
  • the winding members are stationary on the track structure because of the electrical power supply they require, while the reaction member is fixed to the vehicle for movement with the vehicle.
  • a reaction component formed by permanent magnets has a large mass, which increases the vehicle mass to be accelerated.
  • permanent magnet reaction devices are compared to the winding component expensive. This difference in costs is particularly significant with an increasing number of vehicles that are used simultaneously on one and the same track structure.
  • reaction components of linear asynchronous motors do not have the weight and cost problems described above for permanent-magnetic reaction components of linear synchronous motors.
  • reaction components of linear asynchronous motors in contrast to the permanent magnetic reaction components of linear asynchronous motors, together with a short-circuited winding component inherently cannot form a fail-safe eddy current brake, which represents a safety disadvantage. Therefore, when using linear asynchronous motors, the cost of additional safety measures is greater than when using linear synchronous motors.
  • the stationary winding components are subject to considerable thermal loads due to the ever-increasing demands on the dynamics of modern amusement rides during their energization phases, which limits a reduction in cycle times with which vehicles can be successively accelerated or decelerated by one and the same winding component.
  • the cost-effectiveness of an amusement ride is largely determined by the achievable cycle times for a given transport capacity of a vehicle, since the product of the cycle frequency, i.e. the reciprocal of the cycle time, of a vehicle and the transport capacity per trip of the vehicle defines the maximum number of users that can be achieved per unit of time.
  • the object of the present invention to develop the above-mentioned amusement ride in such a way that, with otherwise the same parts and components of the amusement ride, more economical operation is possible than with the above-mentioned conventional arrangement of the winding component on the track structure and the reaction component on the vehicle, in particular for a Amusement ride with more than one vehicle moving along the track trajectory at the same time.
  • the present invention of an amusement ride mentioned above solves this problem in that the at least one winding component is arranged on the vehicle and the at least one reaction component is arranged on the track structure.
  • the proposed arrangement of the winding component and reaction component reduces the vehicle mass due to the lower weight of the winding component compared to the cooperating reaction component, which reduces the demands on the linear motor as well as on the design of the vehicle and the design of the track structure.
  • the cycle time that can be achieved at a speed change section of the track structure is no longer decisive for the thermal load on a winding component resulting from the ferry operation, but rather the cycle time of the respective vehicle.
  • the at least one winding component of only this vehicle energized and thereby heated, while the winding components of other vehicles whose speed is unaffected are not energized and consequently not heated.
  • a conventional track structure fixed winding member it is energized and heated every time the speed of a vehicle is changed.

So-called “supercapacitors” or “supercaps” are preferred as on-board energy stores for storing electrical energy because of the very good ratio of storage capacity to dead weight and because of the ability to absorb and release electrical energy relatively quickly.

Abstract

L'invention concerne un manège d'attraction (10) qui comprend une structure de piste stationnaire (14) qui s'étend le long d'une trajectoire (B) et un véhicule (16, 16') guidé mobile sur la structure de piste (14) le long de la trajectoire (B), le véhicule (16, 16') pouvant être entraîné électriquement par un moteur linéaire, ce moteur linéaire (18) comprenant les composants de moteur (18a, 18b) suivants : au moins un ensemble enroulement (20) qui peut être alimenté pour produire un champ magnétique à variation temporelle et spatiale et qui comporte une pluralité d'enroulements pouvant être alimentés (22) d'au moins un conducteur électrique ; et au moins un composant de réaction (23) qui interagit avec le champ magnétique de l'ensemble enroulement (20) pour produire une force agissant le long de la trajectoire (B) entre l'ensemble enroulement (20) et le composant de réaction (23), un composant de moteur (18a, 18b) constitué d'un ensemble enroulement (20) et d'un composant de réaction (23) étant disposé de manière stationnaire sur la structure de piste (14) et l'autre composant de moteur (18a, 18b) étant disposé sur le véhicule (16, 16') pour un mouvement conjoint avec le véhicule (16, 16'). Selon l'invention, l'ensemble enroulement (20) est disposé sur le véhicule (16, 16') et le composant de réaction (23) est disposé sur la structure de piste (14).
