ABSTRACT:
An amusement ride presenting a column fitted to a beam which pivots about a pin on the platform and is connected to the column by at least one jack. The column is fitted in articulated manner with four blocks, each presenting a horizontal pin about which pivots one end of a roundabout supporting member, and a support rotating about the supporting member presents a number of cars with which it forms a roundabout. Each car is mounted on two pins of the support, presents an axis perpendicular to the rotation axis of the support, and may be rotated through a full turn by centrifugal force. Each block is normally locked in relation to the column by means of a key, and the supporting member is in the form of a boom fitted in articulated manner with an L-shaped arm and in turn integral with a shaft about which the support rotates, so that the shaft may be inclined by an angle of over 90 degrees in relation to its idle position. For transfer from one site to another, the column and the beam are fitted to the bed of a tired vehicle, and the keys are removed to rotate the blocks and position the supporting members in pairs parallel to the axis of the vehicle.
