Abstract: A security arrangement for passengers in transport systems and fun-rides, more particularly amusement devices such as roller coasters or the like, comprising a holding means (3), with the aid of which the passenger to be secured is prevented from leaving a secured ride position, more particularly a seat (2), the holding means being able to assume at least one open and a plurality of securing positions, the different securing positions of the holding means being associated with at least two secured position ranges, which are detected by a signal producing means (7, 9 and 10) associated with the holding means (3).

Abstract: A retaining system for amusement rides, more particularly roller coasters, carrousels or the like has a chair member for a passenger to sit on and which comprises a seat and a back rest and furthermore a retaining device with at least one locking part able to be moved between at least one getting on position and at least one retaining position, the retaining device possessing an essentially U-like retaining part, which at least to a major extent surrounds the pelvic region of the passenger to be secured, the retaining part being inclined in an anthropometrically optimized plane, which is inclined in a range of 30° to 60°, more particularly 40° to 50°, preferably approximately 45° to the horizontal and/or the seat.

Abstract: A retaining system for amusement rides, more particularly roller coasters, carrousels or the like has a chair member 1 for a passenger to sit on and which comprises a seat 3 and a back rest 2 and furthermore a retaining device with at least one locking part able to be moved between at least one getting on position and at least one retaining position, the retaining device possessing an essentially U-like retaining part 4, which at least to a major extent surrounds the pelvic region of the passenger to be secured, the retaining part being inclined in an anthropometrically optimized plane, which is inclined in a range of 30° to 60°, more particularly 40° to 50°, preferably approximately 45° to the horizontal and/or the seat.

Abstract: A fun-ride and more especially a roller coaster or a similar fun-ride, in the case of which the amusement potential is simply enhanced because the basic or original type of movement, that is to say travel of a vehicle cabin on rails of a roller coaster is combined with a further and different types of motion is discontinued or then alternatively continued with such different type of motion. Figure along the travel path, that is to say for example along the elevated rails of a roller coaster, at one or more points additional ride change means are provided, which produce the additional or alternative type of motion for the vehicle cabin.
