Task:
What is the purpose of the chain conveyor in this model?
The chain conveyor allows you to use a number of balls in the obstacle course, even though only one ball
can be present in the spring launcher at a time.
■ With this model the balls are transported upward by
the wheel and stair step conveyors. At the very bottom the
balls start with the wheel conveyor. After arriving at the
top here, two tracks lead back down. One track terminates
at the stair step conveyor. The other track runs through the
"drop with change of direction" obstacle twice. At the end
all balls roll back to the pick-up point for the wheel conveyor.
The largest model of this construction set has a highlight: a loop. In front
of the loop the balls fall shoot down a nearly vertical track. This gives them
enough momentum to fly through the loop. At a lower speed the balls would
fall out of the loop. After traveling through the loop the balls hit against a
green construction plate and roll on to the next flex-rail.

■ This model is the largest of the PROFI Dynamic XL construction set.
All flex-rails are installed in the wheel and stage conveyor and the balls
run though the most obstacles. The balls also start at the wheel conveyor
here. After reaching the top, the balls are stripped off and alternately
guided to the left and right by the mechanical "change of direction"
switch. Each ball then arrives at one side of the stage conveyor. This
elevator then continues to transport the balls upward. After arriving at
the top, the balls roll from each exit down
the obstacle course on two different tracks.
