  • said person can be secured in the holder, after which the holder is rotated about an axis of rotation.
  • the holder is thereby disposed spaced from said axis, so that the person present in the holder will move in a circular path.
  • amusement devices are known wherein the holder is rotated about an axis, which axis is in turn rotated about another axis, for example an axis extending parallel thereto. The person is thereby moved through space in random fashion.
  • the object of the invention is to provide an amusement device wherein the person or persons present in a holder can move in a spherical path.
  • amusement device includes means for rotating the holder about at least three axes which intersect in a centre.
  • the holder Since the holder is spaced from the centre and rotatable about three intersecting axes, the holder can move in a path which is spherical, as it were, wherein the centre of the virtual sphere coincides with the centre of the three intersecting axes. Depending on the relative positions of the axes, the holder may move through a complete spherical path or through part thereof.
  • One embodiment of the amusement device according to the invention is characterized in that said means comprise at least three rings extending within each other, wherein the outer ring is rotatably mounted in a support about a first axis, the middle ring is rotatably connected to the outer ring about a second axis and rotatably connected to the inner ring about a third axis, wherein the inner ring is fitted with a holder.
