brief introduction

"Nanchang star" Ferris wheel is located in Ganjiang citizen park on the edge of Ganjiang River in Hongjiaozhou, Honggutan District, Nanchang City, Jiangxi Province. It is the third tallest Ferris wheel in the world (the world's tallest is "Singapore Flyer", 165 meters high, surpassing Nanchang star Ferris wheel, which still keeps the record of the world's largest Ferris wheel). The wheel has a total elevation of 160 meters and a turntable diameter of 153 meters, which is higher than the 135 meter high "eye of London" wheel on the Thames River in England. It was the largest Ferris wheel in the world. It has 60 space capsules, each of which can accommodate 6-8 tourists. Equipped with LCD TV and air conditioning, the capsule can accommodate nearly 1000 people "in the air" every hour to see the magnificent scenery on both sides of the Nanchang river.

Nanchang Ferris wheel will also be equipped with the world's largest clock, with 60 space capsules representing 60 minute time scale. The ferris wheel will adopt dual power supply and dual power system to ensure the safety of tourists. Meanwhile, the space capsule is also equipped with fire extinguisher, walkie talkie and life-saving rope barrel. In case of failure, tourists can go down along the rope to avoid danger. The ferris wheel rotates at a constant speed, but if a passenger has a sudden disease in the space capsule, such as heart disease, he can adjust the transportation speed by contacting the ground operation and control personnel through the walkie talkie, so that the patient can reach the ground quickly.

Structure overview

The total construction height of the "Nanchang star" Ferris wheel is 160 meters, 25 meters higher than the previous world record holder "London Eye". The diameter of the turntable is 153 meters, and the main steel structure is equipped with 60 space capsules. Such a huge ferris wheel has a high technical content. The capsule is equipped with some electronic systems: air conditioning, audio, LCD TV, walkie talkie, etc. each capsule can carry up to 6-8 passengers, and can accommodate about 360-480 people for sightseeing at the same time. It takes about 30 minutes to rotate for a circle. You can overlook the earth from the clouds at a super high altitude of 160 meters. You can have a panoramic view of the beautiful landscape of Nanchang. That kind of excitement and novelty can't be enjoyed on the flat ground.

Shanghai made the first

In addition to the world's No.1 "Nanchang star", China's first super 100 meter Ferris wheel, the first domestic double torrent retreat, and the longest roller coaster in China Behind these domestic top entertainment equipment, there is an outstanding connotation of "made in Shanghai".

In the construction of large-scale entertainment projects in China, the pace of Shanghai Amusement Machine Engineering Co., Ltd. reflects the speed of China. The company's researchers are working hard to tackle key problems. Some of them are ready to help the 200 meter Ferris wheel that may appear in the Beijing Olympic Games, and some of them are making suggestions for the "dream" viewing vehicle that is intended to be built for the Shanghai World Expo.

The world's largest clock

In addition, the ferris wheel itself has some very attractive functions. Its wheel surface color lights are composed of 6000 or 7000 LED semiconductor lighting devices. When all lights are on, in addition to displaying the world's largest giant color clock with a diameter of 153 meters, it can also set different patterns according to the needs. At the same time, it can print the product name or advertising slogan of the business according to the needs, and the number of words is less than 12 That is to say, its effect is more lasting than TV advertisement, with wide audience and strong visibility. As night falls, Ferris wheel will set another world record - the world's largest electronic clock. This also comes from the inspiration of Shanghai designers - millions of computer-controlled semiconductor chips and 7000 meter long LED lamps will spell out multiple pointers and colorful numbers on the big turntable.

A bird's-eye view of the landscape

People who have been to London and Tokyo are nostalgic for the scenery on those two Ferris wheels. The London eye is on the river Thames, while the Tokyo Ferris wheel is on the West Sea. These two Ferris wheels are both "waterscape + urban landscape", which almost everyone thinks is the best combination of sightseeing. "Nanchang star" is also located on the Bank of Ganjiang River in Nanchang. You can not only look at the modern skyscrapers of Manhattan style Honggutan, feel the graceful Ganjiang River, Jiangxi's mother river, but also overlook the great changes and vicissitudes of the past and present on both sides of Nanchang river.

Nanchang star Ferris wheel stands on the Bank of Ganjiang River, 1.7 km west of Nanchang bridge. When you pass the Nanchang bridge, you can see the ferris wheel standing on the Bank of Ganjiang River, the world's most dynamic city and garden hero city, Nanchang, China, with a height of 160 meters. From the autumn water square to the new world of Ganjiang River, this section condenses the essence of Jiangxi culture. No matter it is Buddhism culture, Taoism culture, Confucian culture, etc., it has become the most popular tourist destination for tourists. Its deep foundation makes tourists stream in. Especially in summer, with the green willows on the road of Ganjiang citizen Park, this section of the road is people's favorite place to enjoy the cool. The superior geographical location, many people in the cool, this is the right time, location, people and, directly or indirectly, provides an indispensable prerequisite for the Ferris wheel.

safety system

It can resist earthquake of magnitude 9

How to ensure the safety of the 160 meter high Ferris wheel? Since the plane of the elliptical track is 15 ° to the horizontal plane, in order to keep the slightly inclined spherical tank stable during operation, the relevant departments have installed a "leveling mechanism" for the spherical tank. Through the ingenious combination of machinery and structure, the levelness of the spherical tank can be adjusted in real time. The 50 spherical tanks are connected into a ring through flexible cables, which can operate synchronously under the push of the power car. It is reported that the reliable positioning and anti overturning device will ensure that the system is still "safe" in the case of a magnitude 9 earthquake and a magnitude 12 typhoon.

Boarding is not the only option

The "brain" of Ferris wheel, the central control room and the management room, are all made of large-area transparent enclosure materials, so that the staff can have a clear picture of the open platform and boarding platform in the process of operation.

Even in thunderstorms, tourists need not be afraid. The top of each steel column of the outer cylinder of the ferris wheel is equipped with a 3.5m long lightning rod along the normal direction of the track, and the top mast will also wear "lightning protection clothing"

Turn around in case of power failure

Imagine how horrible it would be for tourists to stay in the "London Eye" during the blackout in London and stay in the air for more than two hours. In order to avoid this situation, Shanghai designers installed a backup generator set for the ferris wheel to ensure that the ferris wheel can run smoothly in case of sudden power failure. At the same time, emergency rescue plans are prepared in the high, middle and low areas of the turntable to help tourists evacuate quickly.
