Ropeway vehicle transportation network
10144436 · 2018-12-04 ·

A ropeway vehicle transportation network includes pairs of ropeway cables on which ropeway vehicles travel the network stations. A plurality of network stations are line changer stations connected to at least two ropeway lines. Each line changer station includes shifter rails that rotate around a vertical axis. When a first ropeway vehicle is on the shifter rails, the shifter rails can be rotated to select on which set of the at least two ropeway lines the first ropeway vehicle will traverse when the first ropeway vehicle exits the shifter rails.

Roadway conduit systems and methods
10145241 · 2018-12-04 · ·

A roadway conduit system includes a roadway conduit section that includes a floor portion with roadway surface configured to receive traveling vehicles, a ceiling portion, and at least one sidewall portion coupled to the floor portion and the ceiling portion such that the floor, ceiling, and at least one sidewall portions define a roadway conduit volume through which the traveling vehicles traverse the roadway conduit section. The roadway conduit section includes at least two fixedly connected preformed segments. The roadway conduit system also includes a roadway conduit ingress coupled to a first location of the roadway conduit section; a roadway conduit egress coupled to a second location of the roadway conduit section; and at least one air mover configured to circulate an airflow in the roadway conduit volume in a direction of at least one of the traveling vehicles.

Cable car system
10112624 · 2018-10-30 · ·

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.

Undercutting-covered excavation semi-reverse construction method of cross-transfer subway station

A section of a node of the station is a section with an arch roof and a straight wall of three underground floors, a first underground floor is a station hall floor 1, and a second underground floor is a platform floor 2 of a subway line A and a third underground floor is a platform floor 3 of a subway line B; and directions of the subway line A and the subway line B are orthogonal. Second lining structures of the first and second underground floors are firstly constructed, and after a shield tunneling machine is pushed through the station, the structure of the third underground floor is constructed by a reverse construction method. Thus, the present disclosure is conducive to improving the efficiency of overall construction, guaranteeing timely tunnel construction completion of two lines and hence timely track construction completion and electricity wiring completion.
