International Classification

A63G 4/00, B61B 1/02, B60R 21/01

Abstract

A gap covering system for an amusement park attraction includes a loading platform having a gap separating a first portion of the loading platform from a second portion of the loading platform. The gap covering system includes a ride vehicle coupled, through the gap, to a transport. The transport is configured to propel the ride vehicle along a loading path of the loading platform. The gap covering system includes a magnetic zipper positioned adjacent to the loading platform and configured to transition between a first configuration and a second configuration in at least a portion of the magnetic zipper. The magnetic zipper is configured to cover the gap in the first configuration and is configured to allow the ride vehicle to occupy a guest-accessible position on the loading platform in the second configuration.

Abstract

A queue wait time estimation system includes a processor and a memory having instructions stored thereon. Executing the instructions causes the processor to receive a first input via a first queue monitoring mode, wherein the first input is indicative of a first queue monitoring characteristic of at least one queue, and also causes the processor to receive a second input via a second queue monitoring mode, wherein the second input is indicative of a second queue monitoring characteristic of the at least one queue, and the second queue monitoring mode is different than the first queue monitoring mode. Executing the instructions also causes the processor to determine, based on the first queue monitoring characteristic and the second queue monitoring characteristic, at least one estimated queue wait time corresponding to the at least one queue, and also causes the processor to output the at least one estimated queue wait time.

Abstract

A sanitization system for an amusement park includes a sanitizing source for sanitizing a ride vehicle. The sanitization system may include a controller that receives an indication that the ride vehicle is in a position for sanitization. The sanitization system may include a sanitizing source, which the controller may lower into position to sanitize the ride vehicle. When sanitization is complete, the controller may raise the sanitizing source out of position. The controller may then send an indication that the ride vehicle is sanitized.
