Abstract

A chair assembly for an amusement ride including a cage and at least one seat mounted within the cage utilizes a five-point harness assembly for securing an occupant within the seat of the chair assembly. The five-point harness assembly includes a release buckle, two strap sections which drape across the shoulders of a seat occupant, two strap sections for extending around the hips of the seat occupant from opposite sides thereof, and a strap section which extends between the legs of the seat occupant. The ends of the strap sections are adapted to cooperatively interlock with the release buckle in a manner which prevents the release of the strap sections therefrom without the aid of a special tool. In addition, the chair assembly includes bearing assemblies mounted on each side of the cage which accommodate the rotation of the cage relative to the remainder of the amusement ride.
