The Flying Chair is a novel type of flying tower amusement equipment. With its luxurious appearance and fascinating motion, it integrates entertainment, fun, and excitement, making it a premier attraction in many amusement venues. Depending on the model size, the capacity generally accommodates 16, 24, or 36 riders, with a rotation speed of approximately 10 revolutions per minute. As riders sit in the suspended chairs, centrifugal force carries them soaring and undulating around the central pillar. While the turntable operates, they gradually ascend—as if gliding through the sky or riding the waves of a turbulent sea, rising and falling in endless joy.
Luxurious and grand in design, bright and beautiful in color. The entire body features glass-colored steel exterior decorations equipped with colorful lights, complemented by high-quality audio systems, creating stunning audiovisual effects. The crown-shaped flying eaves adorned with distributed patterns exude noble temperament and commanding presence, while the central colored pillar rises progressively with distinct layers, boasting a three-dimensional and exquisitely beautiful form. The light strips beneath the flying eaves segment the ceiling into fan-shaped sections, where vibrant illustrations and colorful lights reflect and enhance each other. When the equipment starts, the joyful atmosphere proves highly attractive to visitors.
The Flying Chair boasts an overall luxurious and aesthetically pleasing design with clever and rational engineering. When the equipment starts rotating, the “”lifting”” and “”swaying”” motions of the central pillar cause the suspended chairs to undulate and spin. Combined with dazzling lights and melodious music, the riding experience becomes exceptionally novel and thrilling. The hydraulic control system ensures stable operation. Special double-seat couple chairs are equipped with multiple safety measures, including seat belts, protective barriers, and steel cables for each seat.

(1) Infrastructure:
Comprises the main tower foundation and ground facilities.
(2) Main Tower Structure:
The tower body is welded from section steel to form a combined vertical structure standing on the ground, with rotating and lifting components integrated into the main tower.
(3) Suspended Chairs:
24 suspended chairs are evenly distributed around the main tower, with their lifting and rotation controlled by the slewing bearing and ascending components.
(1) Rotation Mechanism:
The suspended chairs are hung from the large roof-frame disc. The disc is fixed to the upper slewing bearing ring via connecting components and connected to the oil cylinder to achieve lifting. The slewing bearing can withstand axial force, tilting moment, and substantial radial force. It engages with the output shaft gear on the reducer. The motor drives the reducer through a fluid coupling, enabling the upper slewing bearing to rotate counterclockwise at 10.4 revolutions per minute, while the lower slewing bearing rotates clockwise at 6.2 revolutions per minute.
(2) Lifting Mechanism:
The lifting mechanism of this equipment adopts a hydraulic transmission system. The oil pump is a gear pump, paired with a 3kW AC motor. The oil cylinder is a single-acting piston cylinder with a diameter of 100mm, providing smooth ascending and descending motion. The hydraulic circuit is equipped with a reliable relief valve to stabilize oil pressure and ensure safe system operation.
