A funicular intended particularly for transporting heavy loads between an upstream station (10) and a downstream station (12), comprises a railway track (14) connecting the upstream station (10) to the downstream station (12) and a vehicle (16) running on the track (14) and drawn by at least one towing cable (30). The vehicle comprises a chassis (50) defining a median longitudinal vertical plane that rests on at least one pendulum running gear, comprising two independent lateral pendulum devices (60) situated on either side of the median longitudinal vertical plane, wherein each lateral pendulum device (60) comprises a secondary pendulum (62) articulated in relation to the chassis (50) around a horizontal secondary pivot axis and two primary pendulums, each articulated in relation to the secondary pendulum (62) around a horizontal primary pivot axis, wherein the primary pivot axes of the two primary pendulums are spaced apart from one another longitudinally on either side of the secondary pivot axis, wherein each primary pendulum is associated with at least two support rollers designed to run on the railway track (14), each rotating around a rotation axis parallel to the primary pivot axis of the associated primary pendulum and situated longitudinally on either side of the primary pivot axis of the associated primary pendulum.

A cable car system includes vehicles that are clamped to a hauling cable along the route and decoupled from the hauling cable upon entering the stations. The vehicles are moved through the stations by control tires which are coupled to one another by gear mechanisms and driven via a supporting pulley for the hauling cable. The control tires are mounted on a supporting frame on at least one supporting structure. The rotation of the supporting pulley that drives the control tires is derived from the hauling cable by way of a drive belt. The drive belt runs over the supporting pulley, which is mounted on a pivotable rocker, and over at least one control tire. The pivotable rocker is mounted on the supporting structure for the supporting frame, or the pivotable rocker is mounted on a supporting structure to which the supporting frame is not attached.

A transport installation with a continuous running aerial rope supports chairs and gondola cars coupled by detachable grips. The rope extends in a closed loop between two bull-wheels, with an up-line and a down-line. The installation presents loading/unloading terminals provided at least at the ends of said lines. One of the terminals comprises a transfer circuit connecting the up-line and the down-line, with a slowing-down section equipped with a slowing-down device, a speeding-up section equipped with a propelling device, connected by a run-through section with a low running speed equipped with a driving device of the vehicles. The transfer circuit comprises a continuous running speed regulating section equipped with a speed regulating means that is able to vary the time required by the cars and the chairs to pass through the speed regulating section, to impose a first predetermined running speed of the cars and a second predetermined running speed of the chairs.
摘要:
A clamping device for coupling a transport device, for example a cabin, gondola, or a chair, to the hauling or traction cable of a cableway system. The clamping device contains two clamping jaws that can be moved toward one another or apart for coupling the clamping device to and uncoupling it from the hauling or traction cable. Exchangeable jaws, via which the clamping jaws act on the hauling or traction cable, are fastened to the clamping jaws. A bearing surface on the clamping jaws for the exchangeable jaws is curved concavely, and a counter surface on the exchangeable jaws has a corresponding curvature.

A cable car system has two pairs of supporting cables that are respectively anchored in a valley station and in a mountain station. Cabins or similar people movers travel along the supporting cables while they are coupled to a self-contained traction cable. The cabins can be decoupled from the traction cable, to be moved in the stations along guide rails. The self-contained traction cable is formed with two loops, forming two strands in each case which are moved in the same direction and to which the cabins can be coupled.

A traction cable-type vehicle for a reserved lane conveyor is equipped with a disengageable clamp secured below the vehicle. A mobile jaw of the clamp is designed as an elbow lever mounted in a swiveling manner on a fixed pin, and is arranged above the cable housing between the fixed and mobile jaws of the clamp. The elbow lever cooperates with a toggle lever having a spring-loaded telescopic link and an actuator for extending and folding of the toggle lever to close and open the clamp. The fixed and movable jaws are removable.

A single-cable aerial cableway including guide rails forming a lead-in guide, secured to a stationary cable support structure. The lead-in guide cooperates with a wheel secured to the grip so as to stabilize and position the grip and the load before they pass along the structure. The position of the lead-in guide is automatically adjusted when the position in height of the cable changes so that the weel always enter the lead-in guide.

A grip comprises a body (1) with an abutment and a suitably spring-loaded clamping jaw (3) which is movable relative to the body and which serves to clamp a rope (4) against the abutment so as to fix the grip in the desired position along the rope. The abutment consists of two thin clips or bands (7,7') which in their mounted state are spaced apart and are separately applicable to the rope (4) and subsequently connectible with the body on each side of the clamping jaw (3), while completely surrounding the rope.

An aerial tramway grip assembly (21) including a gripping head (24) carrying a pair of opposed movable jaws (26, 27) for gripping a haul rope (23) and a resilient biasing assembly (37) biasing the jaws (26, 27) towards a closed position. The improvement in the grip assembly (21) is comprised of two pairs of opposed stationary gripping surfaces (41,42,43,44) positioned proximate the jaws (26,27) and positioned to cooperate with an opposed one of the jaws (26,27) to grip the haul rope (23) therebetween in the event of release of the gripping force provided by the other jaw. Additionally, resilient biasing is provided by two independent rubber blocks or cylinders (38,39) which bias each jaw (26,27) toward an opposed jaw and toward the opposed stationary gripping surface (41-44). The stationary gripping surfaces (41-44) additionally are oriented to be gravity biased into wedging engagement with the haul rope (23) so as to grip the haul rope (23) even in the event of failure of the movable jaws (26,27). The grip assembly (21) also includes jaw actuating levers (53,54) coupled to the movable jaws (26,27) and formed to move the jaws to an open position against the resilient biasing by the rubber cylinders (2,8,39).
摘要:
A bicable ropeway aerial transport system is disclosed which includes a pair of carrier and haulage ropes and at least two pair of end pulleys that are respectively engaged with the ropes in embarking and disembarking stations. The end pulleys in at least one of the stations are offset longitudinally and form between them a free space dimensioned to permit the engagement and disengagement of the vehicles from between the ropes in the free space.
