The key to the rotation of the rotating restaurant is that the ball bearings under the ground are working. Rotate every corner of the restaurant. Only the central cylinder and the circular part of the wall can rotate in the restaurant. This is because dozens of ball bearings are evenly installed under the ground of the annular part, so that the rotatable annular part is evenly supported on the annular track on the top floor of the building.
In addition to the balls, there are two high-power motors in the dining room, which drive the rotating device to drive the circular floor to rotate very slowly, usually every turn 1~2 hours.
