Device for attaching a cabin designed to be hauled by a cable, including a fastener to couple the device to the cable, and at least one arm configured to attach the cabin in removable manner and mounted mobile on the fastener to move the cabin with respect to the fastener.

Device for coupling a vehicle to a traction cable, comprising a fastening configured to couple the vehicle to the traction cable, the fastening including at least two rotatable elements configured to occupy a coupling position in which said at least two rotatable elements are in contact with the traction cable and the vehicle is coupled to the traction cable, the device including a variable speed drive configured to modify a speed of rotation of said at least two rotatable elements when said at least two rotatable elements are in the coupling position, so that the vehicle moves relative to the traction cable.

This support (36), as a profile in an electrically insulating material, comprises a substantially planar upper surface (50), provided with a longitudinal flute (60) intended for receiving a track segment, and a longitudinal groove (70) intended for receiving a low voltage electric power supply cable; and a lower surface (52) intended to bear upon a base for maintaining the support in the roadway. It is characterized in that the lower surface (52) is curved, preferably V-shaped, so that the support is concave so as to be at least transversely maintained in a recess with a mating shape, made in the base.
