CAROUSSEL

To and from the place where it all began… Take a trip back in time with Ugears‘ beautiful nostalgic model, the Carousel.

This outstanding model is a look from Ugears on the classic wedding carousel made of premium wood, the familiar and beloved fairground carousel is presented with a highly detailed design. Here you will find two types of carousel horses that sway up and down as the model spins. The core of the model is a central pole that rotates in a direction opposite to the main platform, making the carousel look faster than it actually does and creating the fascinating dynamics of the entire build. The mast rises above the roof, which makes it visually more delicate and at the same time gives it more volume. Add little birds flying above the carousel roof as well as decorative flying lanterns and you can smell hot dogs and cotton candy!

As far as the technical aspects are concerned, the Ugears carousel is based on the same principle as most Ugears self–propelled models: all the pieces of the puzzle are assembled without glue or additional tools and the movement energy is provided by a rubber band motor. The Carrousel has a winding wrench under its base that ensures the tension of the elastics attached to the main axis. The pendulum descends on the axis and makes the movement of modules and details smoother. The main axis is connected to the central pole by a planetary gear that ensures its rotation in the opposite direction to the main platform. The roof is also attached to the main axis and crankshafts that move horses up and down while circling around the central pole.

It‘s a lot of fun to watch the model in motion, but if you‘re one of those people who likes to see with their hands, you can rotate the Carousel manually. This will allow you to examine every detail in slow motion and give you a complete understanding of how the mechanism works.

Made from durable materials made of high–quality wood, the Ugears Carousel is a perfect gift for someone who wants to distract from the daily stress and feel the carefree magic of the fair for a few hours. Put it together, put it all back together and we guarantee that you will hear this music, feel the buzzing atmosphere of the holiday fair and remember the joy of riding your favorite horse on its merry round trip!
