Abstract: An amusement device includes at least one swinging arm, one end of which is suspended so as to be rotatable about a swinging axis and one free end of which is displaceable along at least a part of a circular path about the swinging axis. A carrier is suspended from the free end of the swinging arm and is rotatable about an axis of rotation transversely to the swinging axis. Furthermore, there is at least one support device for at least one person which is suspended from the carrier at a distance from the axis of rotation thereof. The support device is rotatable with respect to the carrier.

Abstract: A supporting system for a mast, for example for a swing carousel, includes stabilizing vehicles which each include a chassis, sets of wheels for moving the stabilizing vehicle, coupling elements near one end of the chassis, and at least one stabilizing arm which is displaceable between an inoperative position in which the stabilizing arm is swung in and a swung-out position in which the stabilizing arm extends outwards with respect to the chassis. At their free ends, the stabilizing arms each have a support for stabilizing the stabilizing vehicle on the ground in the swung-out position of the stabilizing arm. A base is provided for the mast, which base includes complementary coupling elements situated opposite one another, one complementary coupling element of which is coupled to the coupling element of a stabilizing vehicle and the other complementary coupling element of which is coupled to the coupling element of another stabilizing vehicle.

Abstract: A support installation for a fairground attraction, comprises a base, two pairs of masts which can be moved between a collapsed and an erected position, as well as a head that in the erected position is at the top of the masts, on which head a Ferris wheel or a swing or the like can be mounted, wherein the masts each comprise several segments that are joined to one another such that they can pivot. Each mast has a base segment that is joined to the base such that it can pivot, as well as a top segment that is joined to the head, at least in the erected position. Relatively high masts can be obtained with this construction.

Abstract: An amusement device, including a frame made from four support legs which, running obliquely upwards toward one another, at their top end support a rotary member, an arm, one end of which is secured to the rotary member and which can be pivoted between the support legs, and a receiving device for people, which is suspended from the other end of the arm. The support legs, at their bottom end, are secured to a trailer by means of hinges, the hinge axis of which is oriented transversely with respect to the longitudinal direction of the trailer, and the axis of rotation of the rotary member is oriented in the longitudinal direction of the trailer.

Abstract: A safety device for a construction in which a person is able to sit and with which movements can be executed, for example for an attraction for a fairground or an amusement park. The safety device includes a base that can be fixed to the construction, a restraint that at one end is pivotably connected to the base and that can be moved between a lifted-up position such that the person is able to sit down in the construction or to leave the latter, and a safety position in which the person is secured in the construction, and locking means for locking the restraint in the safety position. The locking means has a locking component that is located at the end of the restraint that faces away from the end where the restraint is pivotably mounted.

Abstract: A ferris wheel has a base, a supporting structure, which includes two pairs of masts erected on the base, and at their top end bear a head and a wheel that is rotatably supported on the head. The masts can be folded down on the base. At least one mast of each pair of masts is articulated, in such a way that in the erected state of the supporting structure the articulations of a mast are aligned in each case, and in the folded-down state of the supporting structure the articulations of a mast are in each case rotated relative to each other out of the aligned state.

Abstract: An installation for moving a person along a path such that the body of said person is subjected to certain speeds and/or accelerations including a frame, a main arm movably joined to said frame at a horizontal axis and a further arm that is mounted by means of a rotary joint on the end of the main arm, a driver for driving the arm, as well as at least one seat that is constructed to hold a person securely in place.
