Engineering & Craftsmanship

Overview

The Flying Dome Theater is an aerial sightseeing ride with four cabins. It carries 24 passengers per cycle. The ride raises guests to a track height of 11m and moves at 0.1m/s. It suits parks and attractions that want a slow, observation-style experience with a compact site plan.

Design and build

The ride is classified as Class A and belongs to the aerial sightseeing car category. It uses a self-controlled aircraft configuration with a turning diameter of 8m. The structure reaches an overall height of 11.5m. The design is intended for smooth, low-speed operation. All engineering details are confirmed per project and are not disclosed here.

  • Four enclosed cabins for passenger comfort.
  • Track height of 11m for elevated views.
  • Slow travel speed of 0.1m/s.
  • Turning diameter of 8m.

Site and installation

The ride requires a footprint of 285㎡. The overall height is 11.5m, so check local height restrictions. Power supply is 3N+PE 380V/220V 50Hz with an installed capacity of 152kVA. Site preparation and foundation work follow the project-specific drawing set. Installation is planned with your contractor. Confirm local utility capacity before ordering.

  • Footprint: 285㎡.
  • Overall height: 11.5m.
  • Power: 3N+PE 380V/220V 50Hz.
  • Installed capacity: 152kVA.

Operating notes

Each cycle lasts 600s, including boarding and unloading. Plan queue lines and staffing around this cycle time. The slow speed of 0.1m/s helps passengers board and exit with assistance. Daily checks follow the maintenance schedule provided. The ride is designed to the standards required by your market, confirmed per project. Train operators on emergency procedures and keep records of inspections.

  • Cycle time: 600s.
  • Capacity: 24 passengers per cycle.
  • Speed: 0.1m/s.
  • Designed to your market's standards.

04Safety

Multi-Layer Safety Protection

Every ZhipaoRides product is engineered with redundant, fail-safe systems that meet or exceed international amusement ride safety standards. From electrical interlocks to structural redundancy, we leave nothing to chance.

  • Mandatory Safety Interlock

    Forced electrical interlocking prevents any unauthorized or unsafe startup. The system requires all safety conditions to be met before operation can begin, eliminating human-error risks.

  • Triple-Layer Cabin Door Protection

    Three independent door opening safeguards — mechanical lock, electrical sensor, and control system verification — eliminate passenger entrapment risk under all operating conditions.

  • Redundant Braking System

    Dual independent braking mechanisms with fail-safe engagement ensure controlled deceleration even in the event of primary system failure, meeting Class A ride standards.

  • Real-Time Condition Monitoring

    Continuous sensor-based monitoring of vibration, temperature, and load distribution provides instant anomaly detection and automatic shutdown when parameters exceed safe thresholds.

  • Emergency Evacuation System

    Integrated auxiliary drive and manual release mechanisms enable safe passenger evacuation from any position, including during power outages or extreme weather conditions.

  • Full-Life NDT Quality Control

    Non-destructive testing at every production stage — from raw material to final assembly — ensures structural integrity backed by 25-year design life certification.

Our safety systems undergo rigorous third-party testing and certification to meet or exceed GB 8408 (Chinese national standard) and EN 13814 (European standard) requirements. Each ride is equipped with multiple redundant safety mechanisms, ensuring passenger protection at all times. From the factory floor to the final installation site, our engineering team conducts comprehensive safety audits, load tests, and operational simulations before any ride enters service.
