Abstract (en)

[origin: WO0108771A1] The invention relates to a bumper car amusement facility. The inventive bumper car amusement facility differs from conventional installations that comprise a rectangular driving course by providing a continuous driving course (2) composed of a multitude of straight and curved partial pieces (4, 5). Said partial pieces are each comprised of a base frame (7) provided with supporting feet (12), of a metal driving course surface (11) situated on top of said base frame, and of two lateral rails which form the ties (3). The power supply to the vehicles (25) is provided by sheet metal strips (18) of the driving course which are positively and negatively charged in a reciprocal manner and which are isolated from one another. The three-wheeled vehicles (25) are provided with current collectors (28) which drag along the driving course.
