OBJETO DE LA INVENCIÓN OBJECT OF THE INVENTION

La presente invención pertenece al sector de la técnica de los aparatos para ocio y distracción, dentro de las necesidades corrientes de la vida. En particular, el objeto de la invención se refiere a un carrusel para niños que presenta una configuración plegable y desmontable para facilitar su transporte. The present invention belongs to the sector of the technique of leisure and entertainment equipment, within the current necessities of life. In particular, the object of the invention relates to a children's carousel that has a collapsible and detachable configuration for easy transport.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

Determinados aparatos para ocio y distracción, como por ejemplo los tiovivos y carruseles, presentan una configuración que comprende varios asientos para niños colocados en un soporte giratorio montado en una base. Certain devices for leisure and distraction, such as roundabouts and carousels, have a configuration comprising several seats for children placed on a swivel stand mounted on a base.

Estos aparatos frecuentemente tienen un funcionamiento itinerante, y suelen ir por las distintas poblaciones cuando éstas celebran determinadas fiestas. Para su transporte, debido a su tamaño y configuración, suele ser necesario el uso de un camión o remolque de grandes dimensiones, y la actuación de varias personas para su montaje y desmontaje, lo cual además conlleva un tiempo considerable. Esto implica unos costes adicionales que son difíciles de amortizar. These devices frequently have an itinerant operation, and usually go through the different populations when they celebrate certain parties. For its transport, due to its size and configuration, it is usually necessary to use a large truck or trailer, and the performance of several people for its assembly and disassembly, which also takes considerable time. This implies additional costs that are difficult to amortize.

Adem�s, debido a esta configuración, son inadecuados para la instalación en el interior de edificaciones que no tengan grandes dimensiones, por ejemplo comercios o galerías comerciales de dimensiones medianas o pequeñas. In addition, due to this configuration, they are unsuitable for installation inside buildings that do not have large dimensions, for example shops or commercial galleries of medium or small dimensions.

El carrusel para niños de la presente invención solventa todos los inconvenientes anteriores. The carousel for children of the present invention solves all the above drawbacks.

DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
