Abstract: An amusement ride includes a passenger receiver, a first carrier, a first movement device, a second carrier, a second movement device, a first releasable coupling device for releasably coupling the first carrier to the passenger receiver and a second releasable coupling device for releasably coupling the second carrier to the passenger receiver. A releasable connecting device is formed to connect the first carrier and the second carrier at least in a movement direction of one of the carriers independently of a coupling existing via the coupling devices or comprises a compensating device, which enables a relative movement of the carriers in relation to each other in the coupled state of the first coupling device and the coupled state of the second coupling device at least in the movement direction of one of the carriers. Furthermore, a method for operating an amusement ride is specified.

Abstract: A patient positioning device has a robot arm and a patient receptacle held at the robot arm. The patient positioning device has a housing assembly for the robot arm. The housing assembly is provided with one or more housing units surrounding the robot arm at least partially. The one or more housing units are secured at the robot arm. The patient positioning device is provided with a shielding against ionizing radiation. At least one part of the shielding is arranged at the one or more housing units.

Abstract: A seating device for connection to a movement mechanism includes at least one seat and a fastening flange. The fastening flange has at least one flange clamping receptacle, and the seat has at least two seat clamping receptacles for connection to the fastening flange. At least one clamping device is provided, which extends in the direction of a clamping axis. The flange clamping receptacle is arranged in the direction of the clamping axis between two of the at least two seat clamping receptacles. The clamping device passes through the two seat clamping receptacles arranged on either side of the flange clamping receptacle and clamps them together in the direction of the clamping axis.
