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 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.

Abstract: A simulator is provided with a frame and a base supported on the frame. A robot arm is connected to the base and connected through the base to the frame. A receptacle for a user is provided. The receptacle has one or more input/output devices and is mounted on the robot arm. A simulation control device is connected by a data connection and an energy transmission connection to the one or more input/output devices. One or more electrical drives are connected to the robot arm and enable pivot movements about one or more rotary movement axes. A robot control device controls the one or more electric drives, wherein the robot control device is secured on the base. The base is supported on the frame so as to be continuously rotatable about a first one of the one or more rotary movement axes.

Abstract: A patient positioning device is provided with a patient support, a movement device, and a pivoting device connecting the patient support to the movement device. The movement device moves the patient support by enabling translational movements of the patient support in directions of the three spatial axes x, y, z of a coordinate system and rotational movements of the patient support about the three spatial axes x, y, z. The pivoting device enables a pivot movement of the patient support relative to the movement device about a horizontal pivot axis. The movement device is preferably a robot arm.
