A roundabout rushes around the circle, returning to the beginning again and again … Ride in a magical circle into children’s memories together with the wonderful Fair Roundabout from Ugears.
This unusual model is a classic carousel in miniature, made of high quality materials, a traditional and beloved fairground attraction in the recognizable detailed design of Ugears. There are two types of horses, arranged in pairs, parallel to each other. As in this carousel, when rotating the horses move up and down. In the center of the structure is a column that rotates in the direction opposite to the movement of the main platform. Because of what it seems that horses jump faster, and as a whole good dynamics of all elements of model is created. The pillar rises above the roof of the Roundabout, making it visually more elegant and at the same time creating volume. Little birds scurry up and down the roof, and decorative air lanterns sway. Each element is in its traditional place, an integral part of the fair fight and fun, like children’s laughter and the smell of cotton candy.
Like most Ugears designers, the Roundabout has everything you need for assembly and does not require additional tools or glue. The model drives a rubber engine, and the winding knob is located at the bottom of the main platform. Rotation of the winding handle increases the tension of the rubber bands connected to the main shaft. The movement of the shaft is slowed down and aligned due to the pendulum. The shaft is connected to the central column through a planetary gear, which provides rotation in the direction opposite to the main platform. The central shaft also has a roof with axles for crankshafts, which transmit reciprocating motion to horses galloping in a circle.
