Abstract

See full text

An amusement ride vehicle for transporting multiple passengers is provided. The vehicle includes a movable base, a support, a lift arm and a carrier. The support is mounted on the movable base. The lift arm is pivotably connected to the support at one end and pivotably connected to the carrier at its opposite end. The carrier is provided with multiple passenger seats and includes a restraining device adapted to restrain each individual passenger in a seat. The vehicle is further provided with a first actuator for pivoting the lift arm relative to the support, and thus for lifting and lowering the carrier relative to the movable base while the movable base rides over the substructure, and a second actuator for pivoting the carrier relative to the lift arm, and thus for adjusting the pitch of the carrier relative to the movable base while the movable base rides over the substructure.
