Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Field of Industrial Application] The present invention relates to a floating structure for entertainment, and in particular, a floating structure for entertainment that is floated on the water surface for leisure and sports at beaches, amusement parks, etc. Regarding things.

[Prior Art] Conventionally, as a diving board found in a beach, a diving board that is supported by landing on the seabed as shown in FIG.
As shown in the figure, it is known to be installed on a stable support floating body such as a floating pier, which is little shaken by waves.

[Problems to be solved by the invention]

By the way, in the conventionally known apparatus as described above, since the diving board is stably supported, there is no thrill for the user, and there is a point that the play equipment is not interesting enough. Also, at beaches with few playground equipment,
It is uneconomical to use the diving board solely as a playground equipment.

The present invention is intended to solve these problems, and for entertainment purposes, the floating body is made almost spherical and unstable, and a mechanism for forcibly shaking the floating body is provided. An object of the present invention is to provide an amusement levitating structure in which the top horizontal surface portion of the floating body is unstablely swayed and which can be used as a diving board and various applications as other play equipment.

[Means for solving problems]

In order to achieve the above-mentioned object, the recreational levitating structure of the present invention is a levitating structure consisting of a substantially spherical floating body moored on the seabed. A pole that has a horizontal surface and is erected on the ballast portion inside the floating body, a swing arm that is swingably attached to the pole, and a swing arm that is attached to the swing arm and moves along the upper surface of the ballast portion. It is characterized in that an iron wheel that can be used and a drive mechanism for the iron wheel are provided.

[Action]

In the above-mentioned entertainment levitating structure of the present invention, the ballast portion provided at the bottom of the floating body acts as a balance weight of the substantially spherical floating body, and the horizontal surface portion at the top of the floating body is kept stable even if it is horizontal. Work to give power. In addition, the floating body can be forcibly agitated by the action of the pole provided inside the floating body on the ballast and the iron wheel that swings around the pole via the swing arm, whereby the entertainment property is improved. It can be further enhanced.

〔Example〕

Next, an embodiment of the present invention will be described. FIG. 1 is a vertical sectional view showing an entertainment levitating structure as one embodiment of the present invention.

As shown in FIG. 1, a substantially spherical floating body 2 has a horizontal surface portion 1 used as a diving platform at the top thereof, and a ballast portion 6 functioning as a balance weight at the lower portion of the floating body 2. There is. The plane shape of the horizontal plane portion 1 is circular, and the elevating means may be installed along the side surface of the floating body 2 from the outer peripheral edge thereof.

A swivel 7 is attached to the lower part of the floating body 2, and a mooring line 3 such as a rope or a chain connected to the swivel 7 is moored to a fixed weight (not shown) fixed to the seabed.

In this way, the moored levitating structure for entertainment has the weight of the balance weight constituting the ballast portion 6 below the floating body 2 adjusted, and its draft and stability set appropriately.

The floating body 2 can be tilted and swung from the horizontal state to the extent that one edge on the outer periphery of the horizontal plane portion 1 almost reaches the water surface.

In addition, the drive mechanism for forcibly swinging the floating body 2 has the same structure.
Is provided inside the vehicle, and the mechanism is composed of iron wheels 9 , a pole 10, a power transmission gear 11, a motor 12, and a current collector 14. That is, the iron wheel 9 is rotatably supported on the revolving arm 15 rotatably attached to the pole 10.

A spur gear 11a is fixed to the iron wheel 9 , and a spur gear 11b meshing with the spur gear 11a is driven by a motor 12 supported by a turning arm 15.

Since the motor 12 revolves together with the revolving arm 15, the current collector 14 composed of a brush and a slip ring for energizing the motor 12 from the pole 10 which is a fixed portion is not connected to the motor 12.
Is provided as a current collecting means. Power from pole 10
Power is supplied to the battery via the waterproof cable 13.

In this embodiment, the turning speed and the traveling direction of the iron wheels 9 are appropriately changed irregularly so that the recreational levitating structure can perform a variety of forcible shaking motions.

Although the embodiments of the present invention have been described above, the place for use of the recreational levitating structure of the present invention is not limited to beaches and amusement parks, as long as the floating body can be levitated. , Any place.

Further, the shape of the floating body is not limited to a perfect spherical shape, but may be any shape as long as it is a substantially spherical shape such as a polyhedron.

[Effect of device]

As described in detail above, according to the entertainment levitating structure of the present invention, unlike the conventional mere diving platform, the user balances the structure so as not to drop the body from the body that is forcibly shaken. Since it has to move above, the leisure property is further improved as a playground equipment, and the effect of enjoying the image of a marine rodeo device can be obtained, and the shape is almost spherical as a whole, so the surroundings are accompanied by the shaking. There is an advantage that it can be used as a structure having a high degree of safety without damaging the person.

Further, since the iron wheel provided inside the floating body turns around the pole via the turning arm to forcibly sway the floating body, the floating body sways even on a water surface without waves, It is effective enough to ensure entertainment.
