Definitions

  • the invention relates to an electric motor-driven carousel according to the preamble of claim 1 and is preferably used in small carousels.
  • Carousels are usually powered by electric motors, which are mostly supplied with electricity from the public supply network.
  • Electric motors which are mostly supplied with electricity from the public supply network.
  • the question of the power supply can become a problem that arises from the fact that there is no power connection in a suitable vicinity.
  • a carousel according to the invention offers a welcome alternative to conventional power supply in this case: it is powered by solar energy.
  • the solar cells on the roof of the carousel convert light energy into electrical energy, which is used to drive the carousel.
  • Such a carousel is particularly well received by the public because it seems to spin by itself.
  • a carousel powered by solar energy is an example of how solar energy can also be used for previously unusual purposes and therefore has a special appeal at fairgrounds.
  • the subclaims also include details of the carousel construction including the arrangement of the solar cells that are used to transport the carousel - either in a transport vehicle in a charged condition or provided with its own chassis - a reduction in the carousel width by folding down the floor platform and roof segments as well as the solar cell arrangements to a width dimension suitable or permissible for road transport without the carousel being dismantled as a whole. Only the carousel horses or other figures are removed, if necessary.
  • the carousel shown schematically in FIGS. 1 and 2 has a platform 1 and a roof 2, which are connected by a central column 3 and stiffened by rods 4 arranged on the circumference.
  • the carousel rotates as a whole, i.e. Platform 1, roof 2 and column 3 as well as the bars 4 belong to the all-round construction.
  • the roof 2 has a dome-shaped, domed shape and a frame construction formed with rods 6. Between the bars 6, solar cell arrangements 7 are fastened, which can be present as rectangular plate elements. Conveniently, they can be easily attached to the frame structure, e.g. with locking or quick locking mechanisms and e.g. Plug connections for the electrical connection. They can be replaced and dismantled for the purpose of transportation. Due to the dome-like shape of the roof, the solar cell arrangements 7 are each inclined upwards and are therefore reasonably evenly irradiated at different positions of the sun.
  • the electrical energy supplied by the solar cell arrangements 7 is fed to the electric motor, which is invisible within the cladding of the column 3 and drives the carousel via a corresponding gear.
  • the solar cell arrangements 7 feed the electric motor indirectly via an electric battery 8 serving as a buffer store, which is also located within the lining of the center column 3, in which the electrical control system etc. is also accommodated.
  • Additional electrical consumers in the form of decorative lamps can be provided as overcharge protection of the battery, which are usually arranged, for example, on the roof edge ring (not shown) and are automatically switched on by a controller when the battery has reached a certain fully charged state.
  • FIG. 3 and 4 show plan views similar to FIG. 2 on preferred Further embodiments of the roof structure with the solar cells, in particular with regard to an easily transportable carousel, which can be transported on the road without dismantling the entire carousel and is preferably also permanently mounted directly on a separate chassis 10 (see FIG. 6). It is necessary to reduce the width of the carousel for transport to a level that meets the road traffic regulations, so that the carousel can simply be attached to a towing vehicle as a trailer or, if it does not have its own chassis, loaded onto a flat trailer becomes.
  • three or four solar cell arrangements 7 are provided, which are arranged in a rotationally symmetrical arrangement and each consist of two plate segments 71 and 72, namely a radially inner plate segment 71 and a radially outer plate segment 72.
  • FIG. 6 shows a view of a carousel according to FIG. 4 in the transport position.
  • 3 and 4 is constructed such that it is along both sides of the diagonals D dash-dotted folding axes K is divided, that is, consists of a main part 22 containing the diagonal D, to which two lateral segments 23 are hinged about the respective folding axis K.
  • the floor platform of the respective carousel is provided with foldable platform segments 13 located on both sides of the diagonal D, which are articulated to the main platform part 12.
  • FIG. 6 shows the carousel with the top view according to FIG. 4 in the transport state, the foldable platform segments 13 being folded up, the foldable roof segments 23 being folded down and outer plate segments 72 of the solar cell arrangements 7 being folded inwards onto the inner plate segments 71.
  • the foldable roof segments 23 can of course also be folded upwards.
