Title:
SUSPENDED RUNWAY
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO2003031009
Kind Code:
A8
Abstract:
A runway over which can travel vehicles driven by gravity, comprising in its whole a supporting structure (1), and a track line structure (2, 3) forming a runway, sustained by the supporting structure (1) and extending from a upper start region (2') to a lower arrival region (3'), wherein the supporting structure (1) is limited to a central region of the whole of the runway, by forming a pillar, and the track line structure (2, 3) includes some track line sections (2) directly connected to the supporting structure (1) and several overhanging track line sections (3) of large extent, which project out of the supporting structure (1) and are sustained by the same by means of rigging systems (4) whose extension can be regulated; these rigging systems (4) establish the geometrical location of the overhanging track line sections (2, 3). In the embodiments intended to be used as games, both the supporting structure (1) and the track line structure (2, 3) are embodied by the composition of systems of composable modular elements, which moreover allow to realize non-suspended runway structures, and which are compatible and integrated with a general system of composable elements for the composition of static and dynamic structures, preferably the system of composable elements according to the European Patent No. 1,022,040.
