| 141 | CONTINUOUS ASSIST ZIPLINE BRAKING AND CONTROL SYSTEM | US12666648 | 2007-06-26 | US20110162917A1 | 2011-07-07 | Charles Z. Steele; David E. Udow; Robert L. Steele |
| A continuous assist braking and control system (10) operable to control the movement, speed and acceleration of a zipline rider (32) traversing a zipline (12). A brake line (40) is entrained around first and second reels (50, 52), and suspended above the zipline (12). The rider (32) is tethered to the brake line (40). A brake (56) is coupled to at least one of the reels (50, 52). When the brake (56) is disengaged, the brake line (40) is pulled along with the rider (32) as the rider (32) traverses the zipline 12). When the brake (56) is engaged, the reels' rate of rotation is slowed, thereby slowing the brake line (40) and the rider (32). When the brake (56) is engaged to stop the reels' rotation, the brake line (40) is brought to a stop, thereby arresting the motion of rider (32). | ||||||
| 142 | Rider controlled zip line trolley brake | US12839654 | 2010-07-20 | US07966941B1 | 2011-06-28 | Kenton Michael Brannan |
| An improved zip line trolley allowing a rider control of his or her speed while traversing along a suspended cable (8) as seen in FIGS. 1A and 1B. The trolley comprises front and rear pulleys (44F) and (44R) conjoined via pulley housing (16) with left and right horizontal handles (10L) and (10R) attached to vertical shaft (12). Front and rear hand brake levers (20F) and (20R) are mounted onto left and right horizontal handles (10L) and (10R). When front and rear hand brake levers (20F) and (20R) are squeezed by the rider, they create a constricting force on front left and right calipers (32FL) and (32FR) along with rear left and right calipers (32RL) and (32RR) of FIGS. 2A and 3A. Thus, friction is applied to front and rear pulleys (44F) and (44R) via front left and right brake pads (34FL) and (34FR) along with rear left and right brake pads (34RL) and (34RR). This frictional force slows the rider's speed to his or her desired rate and brings the rider to a safe stop at a precise location along suspended cable (8). | ||||||

| A trolley for traveling along a cable. The trolley may include a frame having a first end, a second end, and a rail positioned between the first and second ends. A brake pad may connect to the frame. A sheave mount may also connect to the frame and include a sheave for rolling along the cable. A carriage may connect to the frame and include a user mount for suspending a user. The carriage may selectively travel along the rail through a continuous range of motion to control a braking force generated by the trolley between the brake pad and the cable. | ||||||
| 144 | Cableway with alterable cable position | US11827507 | 2007-07-11 | US20080011183A1 | 2008-01-17 | Patrick Fischer |
| The present invention is of a cable way comprising a beam with a fixed support structure to which a circular or an arc-shaped track is attached. A track cart, to which one end of a carrying cable is connected, is movably assembled onto the track. The principles of the invention include that the ends of the carrying cables may move in any direction, provided the distance between the two cable end attachment points and thus the cable tension remains unchanged. By moving the track carts the gradient and position of the carrying cable can be altered individually and controlled in the horizontal as well as vertical direction in order to efficiently increase the use of space and reach of a cable way. In particular, loads, which move on the carrying cables by force of gravity, can be influenced in both direction and path of motion. | ||||||
| 145 | Amusement ride employing a suspended tensioned static cable | US11168101 | 2005-06-28 | US20060288901A1 | 2006-12-28 | Eric Cylvick |
| A recreational ride employs a suspended tensioned static cable that allows the user to gravitationally ride, harnessed to a rolling trolley attached to the cable, from an upper platform to a lower platform. The trolley includes a brake assembly that is attached to a brake arm through a bolted connection, which greatly reduces the cost and complexity of the brake assembly and reduces the chances of operator error when mounting the trolley on the cable. The brake assembly includes two adjacent, separate, aligned brake pads fabricated of different materials, a forward pad being a non-metallic material and a rearward pad being a metallic material. A wheel assembly portion of the trolley includes a sheave plate, bolted to a brake arm, that is permitted to pivot about its point of attachment to the brake arm to thereby eliminate fatigue forces on the wheel assembly. | ||||||

| 147 | Arrangement for a playground for children | US10614798 | 2003-07-09 | US20040077421A1 | 2004-04-22 | Frank Sundahl |
| An arrangement for a playground for children is embodied as a internally hollow object, preferably of synthetic material, which can have the shape of a mountain top with a circumferential edge (2) at the bottom, which rests on the ground. The object (1) is embodied with windows (3) and with one or more doorways (4), and the internal hollow space constitutes a playhouse. The upper surface of the object (1) is embodied with one or more chutes (6) and with a flight of steps (7). The object (1) is held solidly to the ground surface by a vertical mast (11), e.g. of steel, which is carried through a hole (12) in the top of the object (1) and secured in the ground in a foundation block (13), and at its upper end has a free height (h) above the top of the object (1). The mast (11) can be supplemented with other play ground equipment, such as a frame for a swing (18) and a rope (19) for a ropeway. The arrangement is simple of construction and consequently cheap to produce. | ||||||

| A recreational ride employs a suspended tensioned static cable that allows the user to gravitationally ride, harnessed to a rolling device attached to the cable, from an upper cable support structure to a lower cable support structure at a speed that is preset, based on the difference in elevation between the upper and lower cable support structures, and that is not controlled by the user during the ride. An additional static safety cable and a terminal braking system provide an extra measure of safety for the rider in the event of failure of a primary brake contained within the rolling device or of failure of the riding cable itself. | ||||||
