Swivel bearing for the carousel

A carousel is one of the most beloved large-scale amusement rides for children, designed to simulate horseback riding. Its slow, gentle rotation, smooth up-and-down motion, and charming music easily capture children’s attention. To ensure stable and safe operation at low speed, a large-diameter slewing bearing is used as a critical part of the main drive.

Typically, a single-row ball slewing bearing connects the rotating platform with the base and transmits rotational movement. It can withstand axial loads, radial forces, and overturning moments simultaneously. The bearing’s reliability is essential for the smooth, quiet, and safe performance of the carousel, providing a joyful experience for children.
