How to Maintain Bumper Car? How to Check Bumper Car Safety?

Bumper cars are one of the most beloved attractions in amusement parks and fairs. While they provide hours of fun, safety should always be a top priority for manufacturers and operators.

Battery Bumper Car/ Inflatable Bumper Car Maintain FAQ

  • Turn on the machine but the whole machine without electricity.

Please check if the fuse in cabinet is burned out or not and check if the output circuit between the two batteries is shortcut or not. Please check the power switch cable is loose or not.

  • When the machine is running, the whole machine suddenly no power.

Please the power swith cable is loose or not. Please check whether the fuse burn out, if yes, please check the motor module on motherboard is bumed out or not. Please reboot the machine after change new motor module.

  • When swiping card, the machine is running automatically.

Please check whether the joystick is broke, change a new one to have a try.

  • There is no music during operation.

Please check if the speaker cable is loose. Please check the memory card on motherboard, if music card no problem, then check the amplifier.

  • Charging without power.

Check whether the plugin the charging port is good. Check the fuse tube of the charging connection line is broken or not. Detection of the voltage of the charging port is not less than 18V.

  • Some times joystick is not sensitive when operation.

Check if the cable port is loose.

  • Body decorative light is not bright.

Check the lighting connection line is loose or not. Replace decorative lamp.

Electrical safety is a major concern that should be carefully considered. This article will discuss the importance of insulation, screens, and distance in ensuring the electrical safety of bumper cars.

Insulation is critical in bumper cars, as the charged body must be enclosed with an insulator. The insulation must meet the corresponding voltage level, environmental conditions, and use conditions. It should not be damp, must be free of dust, fibers, or other dirt, and there should be no cracks or discharge marks. The electrical index of insulation is mainly insulation resistance, which should not be lower than 1000Ω per volt working voltage and must meet professional standards.

The screen is another important safety feature in bumper cars. Screens, such as fences, shields, covers, and box gates, isolate the charged body from the outside world. The screen device should have sufficient size and ensure a sufficient safety distance from the charged body. The distance between the barrier and the low-voltage bare conductor should not be less than 0.8m, while the distance between the mesh barrier and the bare conductor, and the low-voltage equipment should not be less than 0.15m. The screen protection device should be installed firmly, and the screen protection device made of metal material should be reliably grounded (or connected to zero).

Distance is also critical in ensuring electrical safety in bumper cars. The distance between bumper cars and amusement equipment should place the charged objects that can be touched out of the range that can be touched. A certain safety distance must be maintained between the charged body and the ground, trees, other facilities and equipment, and between the charged bodies. The size of the safety distance depends on factors such as high and low voltage, equipment type, environmental conditions, and installation methods.

Conclusion

Bumper cars are a beloved amusement attraction, but safety should always be a top priority. Manufacturers and operators should prioritize these safety measures to ensure that bumper car rides are safe for everyone.
