Tie rods - Import export

The Galleon Race ride consist of a circular development track with depressions and two “cat’s back”. The rail is supported by a steel horse structure, connected to the central body by radial longeron and tie rods. The whole metal structure is hot-dip galvanised. Twelve cars run along the rail, connected to a central rotor by radial arms (sweeps). The foot-boards approaching the cars consists of an aluminium tread plate. All electric and pneumatic equipment is fitted inside the central body, on which the central rotor is fixed. The ride moves by means of 1 self-braking A.C. gear-motor fixed to the central rotor and controlled by Frequency Drive.

The Musik-Express ride consists of a circular development track with depressions and three cat backs. The rail is supported by a steel horse structure, connected to the central body by radial longeron and tie rods. The whole metal structure is hot-dip galvanised. Twenty cars run along the rail and are connected to a central rotor by radial sweeps. The foot-boards approaching the cars consists of an aluminium tread plate. All electric and pneumatic equipment is fitted inside the central body, on which the central rotor is fixed. All decorative panels are coated with aluminium sheet. Electronically operated lighting is composed of cabochons. The covering canvas is made of fireproof material (class 2) and panelling of the cars are fibreglass made. The cars are moved by 5 self-braking AC motors fixed on the ends of the radial sweeps and controlled by Frequency Drive.

The Matterhorn ride consist of a circular development track with depressions and two “cat’s back”. The rail is supported by a steel horse structure, connected to the central body by radial longeron and tie rods. The whole metal structure is hot-dip galvanised. Twenty cars run along the rail, connected to a central rotor by radial arms (sweeps). The cars swings due to centrifugal force during rotation of the ride. The foot-boards approaching the cars consists of an aluminium tread plate. All electric and pneumatic equipment is fitted inside the central body, on which the central rotor is fixed Electronically operated lighting is composed of cabochons. The covering canvas is made of fireproof material (class 2) and panelling of the cars are fibreglass made. The ride moves by means of one self-braking A.C. gear-motors fixed to the central rotor and controlled by Frequency Drive.

The Waltzer consists of a circular undulatory track. The rail is supported by a steel horse structure, connected to the central body through long bars and radial tie rods. The whole metal structure is hot-dip galvanized. The floor consists of an aluminum plates and has 7 independent gondolas which rotate on themselves using the undulating rotation of the entire floor during the ride. All the gondolas are equipped with a pneumatic brake to allow to the passengers a safe ascent and descent. All the electric and pneumatic equipment are assembled inside the center of the ride, where is attached the central rotor. The center of the ride consists of a square structure to be bolted to the foundation. The body of the cars are made of fiberglass. The ride moves by means of 7 A.C. self-braking gearmotors, controlled by a Frequency Drive.

Shape-memory alloy devices SMAD are axial restraining devices that exploit the superelastic properties of shape-memory alloys. The force-displacement curve, characterized by one or more "wedges" (sections where force remains nearly constant while displacement increases), allows SMAD to limit the maximum force transferred to the structure they are connected to. They are also characterized by a significant recentering capacity. Experimental force-displacement curve of a shape-memory alloy device. Vibrating table tests on brick walls with SMAD devices used as horizontal tie rods. SMAD devices installed at the San Francesco Basilica in Assisi.
