The invention relates to a truss-type rail for an amusement ride, having two rail tubes which are directly trafficable by a roller coaster train; a non-trafficable truss chord tube; and vertical truss profiles, which reinforcingly connect the rail tubes and the truss chord tube and include vertically diagonal profiles alternatingly ascending and descending diagonally between the truss chord tubes and the rail tubes. According to the invention, in at least one connection region of the vertically diagonal profiles there are no additional vertical truss profiles connected to the truss chord tube.
The invention relates to a rollercoaster arrangement (1000) comprising a wagon arrangement and a rail section (S) with at least one supporting device (100) having: a support foot (10a) for anchoring the supporting device (100) in a foundation (F1, F2, F3); a support head (14a) which is connectable to the rail section (S) in order to dissipate a static and dynamic load of the rollercoaster arrangement (1000) into the foundation (F1, F2, F3); and at least one modular segment (12) arranged between the support foot (10a) and the support head (14a). Provision is made here for the supporting device (100) to be in the form of an individual supporting column, wherein at least the one segment (10, 12, 14) is in the form of a prestressed spun concrete hollow body.

Backbone rail for a roller coaster and roller coaster arrangement
A backbone rail for a roller coaster, comprising two rail pipes designed for vehicles to travel upon, and at least one, particularly main load-bearing backbone pipe not designed for vehicles to travel on, whose second moment of area is greater than the second moment of area of the rail pipes, wherein rail pipes and backbone pipe are connected to each other section-by-section by stiffening bulkheads, whereby at least one bulkhead has the following features: A transverse cross member, which extends in the orthogonal direction and connects the rail pipes with each other, and bulkhead plates, connecting at least one rail pipe with the backbone pipe, wherein at least one bulkhead plate is designed as a longitudinal bulkhead plate, whose main plane of extension extends perpendicular to the bulkhead plane, and which is attached to the backbone pipe in such a way that it runs tangentially into the backbone pipe. In addition, the invention relates to a roller coaster arrangement with such a backbone rail.
The invention relates to a travel tube piece (28) for a roller coaster arrangement (10), said piece comprising a travel tube (28a) and a travel tube coupling body (28b) which is fixedly connected to the side of the travel tube (28a) at a travel tube end (46) in the tangential direction (T) of the travel tube (28a) by means of a connecting surface (60) between the travel tube coupling body (28b) and the travel tube (28a). The travel tube coupling body (28b) also has a through-hole (56) extending through the travel tube coupling body (28b) in the tangential direction (T) of the travel tube (28a) for receiving a connection element (54) using which the travel tube (28a) can be detachably connected to an additional travel tube at the abutting ends via a clamping connection, wherein the extent (A) in the tangential direction (T) of the travel tube (28a) of the connecting surface (60) is greater than the extent (B) of the through-hole (56).
The invention relates to a backbone rail (1) for a roller coaster, comprising two rail pipes (2, 4) designed for vehicles to travel upon, and at least one, particularly main load-bearing backbone pipe (6) not designed for vehicles to travel on, whose second moment of area is greater than the second moment of area of the rail pipes (2, 4), wherein rail pipes (2, 4) and backbone pipe (6) are connected to each other section- by-section by means of stiffening bulkheads (10), whereby at least one bulkhead (10) has the following features: A transverse cross member (8), which extends in the orthogonal direction and connects the rail pipes (2, 4) with each other, and bulkhead plates (12, 14), connecting at least one rail pipe (2, 4) with the backbone pipe (6), wherein at least one bulkhead plate (12, 14) is designed as a longitudinal bulkhead plate, whose main plane of extension extends perpendicular to the bulk- head plane, and which is attached to the backbone pipe (6) in such a way that it runs tangentially into the backbone pipe (6). In addition, the invention relates to a roller coaster arrangement with such a backbone rail.
