1. Product Brief Introduction
Kids Mini Pendulum Amusement Ride is a scaled-down, safe and mild thrilling children’s amusement equipment developed based on the classic big pendulum principle. As a popular transitional ride between gentle family rides and high-thrill amusement projects, it perfectly retains the classic swinging fun of the big pendulum while lowering the swing height, swing angle and movement intensity, fully fitting the physical endurance and entertainment needs of children and young teenagers. The equipment features compact structure, safe movement, cute modeling and strong entertainment. It avoids excessive dizziness and extreme weightlessness, bringing mild and exciting swinging experience for kids. With low site occupation, stable operation, ultra-low failure rate and high safety factor, it has become a core star project for children’s amusement parks, parent-child playgrounds, community parks and indoor family entertainment centers, effectively attracting child passenger flow and creating stable commercial benefits for operators.
Core Technical Parameters: The conventional kids mini pendulum covers an area of 8m×6m with a total equipment height of 4.2 meters. It is available in 6/8/12 seats optional configuration, adapting to different venue passenger flow demands. The rated power is 4kW with 380V industrial voltage. The maximum swing angle is 30 degrees, and the maximum lifting height is 1.5 meters. A single operation cycle is 120 seconds. Suitable for children with a height of 1.1m–1.5m, the whole machine has a lightweight and stable structure, low center of gravity, strong wind resistance and excellent safety performance, fully meeting long-term indoor and outdoor commercial operation standards.
2. Product Operation Principle
The Kids Mini Pendulum adopts mature motor-driven mechanical swing structure and intelligent frequency conversion control system, composed of fixed base, support frame, swing arm, integrated passenger cabin and PLC program control system. The operation principle is stable, safe and mature. After starting the equipment, the frequency conversion system drives the swing arm to perform low-amplitude reciprocating arc swinging movement. Different from the extreme swing of large pendulum, this mini model limits the swing angle and height within a safe range, realizing gentle and rhythmic front and rear swinging motion.
The whole operation process realizes slow start, stable acceleration, uniform swinging and slow deceleration stop. The movement is smooth without jitter, impact and abnormal noise. During operation, children can feel slight weightlessness and aerial swinging fun, with moderate stimulation and no dizziness or fear. The equipment supports adjustable operation speed and swing amplitude, which can freely switch super gentle kid mode and dynamic mild thrill mode. After the operation cycle ends, the swing arm will automatically reset to the horizontal static state to ensure safe and convenient boarding and alighting. The simple and reliable operation logic is very suitable for long-term repeated commercial operation for children groups.
