How Ugears Marble Run Chain Hoist Works

The model features a hand crank-powered chain hoist, as well as a number of tracks, each boasting its fun and unique element or obstacle. The machine is put in motion by turning the handle clockwise. After that the wooden chain hoist picks the marbles and lifts them to the top of the device. Up there they are put on different tracks with the help of a 3-way switch. One marble is dropped down a chute featuring a loop-the-loop at the bottom. The next one ventures down several mind-boggling cascades. Three other marbles get collected in the accumulator, only to be directed along one of 3 shorter tracks. All of the marbles pass through the collector (common tray) before coming back to the chain hoist and embarking on their next journey.

This wooden model is a modular one, meaning that it can be joined with other Marble Run Chain Hoists  – two or four models can be hooked up (in pairs). Special connectors (included in the package) are used for this transformation. Two Marble Run Chain Hoists are attached together frontally. Alternatively, four of them can be joined together together (both frontally and laterally), resulting in a fun system of runs and hoists.

The Hong Kong Science Museum boasts the highest rolling ball sculpture in the world (the 72-foot tall ‘Energy Machine’). Although the Ugears wooden model is only one foot tall, it’s no less impressive and just as original! You will keep wondering which track your favorite marble will follow, as the compact model packs plenty of surprises into a small space. When marbles go into the 3-way switch, each marble slams a ‘door’ behind it shut, which allows the next marble to keep going. The 3rd marble, when it passes through the last hole, opens the doors with the help of a lever.

Learn about the operation of drive gears and driven gears in gear sets, the preciseness of ounterweights, and be inspired by the mechanics of the accumulator  and the 3-way switch and as they dictate the marbles’ pathway.

When you complete assembling this DIY marble run, the party will just be starting! Observe the wooden mechanical model function when you send the marbles on their way. Anyone looking for a unique gift for an inquisitive child or the child’s parents is surely going to get just that (and much more!) by choosing the Ugears Marble Run Chain Hoist!

    Best Birthday Gift Ever

    I would recommend this to a friend!
    I was randomly targeted by Facebook to purchase this product, and for literal weeks I would ignored it. Then one day I was looking for gift ideas, for myself of course, when yet another ad popped up. Finally curious enough, I made my way to their website, because who buys stuff through Facebook am I right? After seeing how many different models they had I had to have one of my own. I sent the link for the Model Marble Run Chain Hoist to my sister and told her it\'s what I wanted for our birthday, we\'re twins you see, and she made it happen. I just spent the most of today putting it together and I\'m having so much fun just watching the marbles do their thing. I can\'t wait to get the next 3 attachments!
