Большой веселый

A big merry go round is the ride a park builds when the carousel has to be the reason visitors walk to that end of the site. In our range that starts at 36 riders on a single deck and runs to 48 на двух уровнях, so the real decision is not how many seats but whether the ride stays on one platform.

This page is about that fork: what each build costs in ground, power and shipping, what installation takes, and how the throughput compares. А диапазон карусели puts these three builds beside the standard platforms and their container plans.

What counts as a big merry go round

Size is measured on three axes rather than one. A carousel counts as big when the platform passes 10 м, when the ride stands 10 m or taller, or when it needs more than one container to move.

Below that line, а 16 or 24-seat ride still fits a park path and travels in one container. Above it the ride becomes a structure: the fence line, the base and the lifting plan all enter the quotation. If your site sits right on the line, the honest question is how many visitors the ride sees at peak – a big platform that queues badly earns less than the standard ride it replaced.

Big merry go round sizing: 36 seats on one deck or 38 и 48 on two

Three builds cover the range, and the single-deck option is not simply the cheaper version of the other two.

The 36-seat luxury carousel is the build to choose when the site has room to spread out. One platform, one drive, one fence line, and a base that does not need a crane. It rotates at 5 rpm with a 130 mm horse lifting stroke, and it is the largest ride in the range a park can install without a lifting plan. A family ride project in Lithuania is written up with the model list and the timeline: the Lithuanian project.

A two-level build wins where the ground is the constraint rather than the budget. На 7.4 м или 10 m slewing diameter it carries 38 или 48 riders inside a fenced circle of 14 м, which is less ground than the same capacity would take on one deck. The price of that is height – 9.8 м или 11.5 м – plus a crane, two extra containers and a longer install. А двухэтажная карусель page covers the two-level builds in detail.

The site and the power a big carousel needs

Two of those numbers are usually underestimated. The fenced circle is 2 к 4 m larger than the platform, and it is what decides whether the ride fits the plot at all. The installed power is higher than the drive rating, because lighting and control are added to the motor on the nameplate.

How a big carousel earns: throughput and ticket price

A 36-seat platform on a three-minute cycle is 720 гонщиков в час при полной занятости, and a 48-seat platform about 960. Nobody runs full, so plan on 60 к 70% of those figures and compare the result with the visitors your gate actually delivers.

• A big carousel earns from ticket price as much as from capacity: the same ride supports a higher fare in a landmark position than on a corner pitch
• Cycle time is decided by boarding, so two boarding points move more riders an hour than another four seats
• Evening trade is where the decoration pays for itself – a 36-seat ride lit from the cornice gets photographed from across the park
• Maintenance scales with the platform rather than the crowd: one service schedule covers the deck whether it carries 300 riders a day or 1,200

Installing a big merry go round

The sequence is the same on every platform, and the order matters more than the speed.

1. Centre base and track

   The base is fixed and levelled to the drawing, then the disc is turned by hand and checked against the rail before the motor and belt are fitted. A disc that runs true here saves days later.

2. Platform and drive

   The turntable goes onto the track with the drive assembly aligned to it, and the electrical cabinet is positioned with the cable route agreed in advance.

3. Centre pillar, roof and decoration

   The centre pillar, roof and cornice follow, with any solid boards or picture panels fixed to the frame before the roof section is closed. Lighting is wired to the voltage stated on the drawing.

4. Figures and test run

   Horses, carriages and the remaining figures are fitted, the ride is run through a full cycle, and the manual, spare list and inspection records are handed over.

On a custom theme the figures arrive in a numbered sequence and the drawing tells your team where each one belongs. Keep that drawing with the manual – it is the first thing a future owner asks for.
