Cable car system for transporting people

A cable car system for transporting people includes at least one vehicle to be coupled along a line to a transport cable, to be moved by the cable in stations and to be moved past at least one embarkation or disembarkation area in which passengers board or leave the vehicle. A conveyor is provided in the embarkation or disembarkation area. A screen is provided for the passengers between the motion path of the vehicle and the embarkation and disembarkation area, to protect the passengers against climatic and acoustic conditions prevailing outside the station building. The screen has at least one opening through which the passengers move to the at least one vehicle or to the disembarkation area. The conveyor is located within the opening and extends only over a part of the length of the opening in the motion direction of the vehicle.

This seat includes a guard-rail able to occupy a lowered first extreme position and a raised second extreme position, and means for locking the guard rail when it is in a lowered position. The locking means include a bistable electromagnet provided with a rod that is able to move between a stable first position in which the rod allows the guard rail to lock in the lowered position by interposing an obstacle in the upward path described by a guard rail element to pass from the lowered position to the raised position, and a stable second position in which the rod allows the guard rail to unlock so that it can be moved into the raised position by moving the obstacle away from the upward path described by the guard rail element.

SKI-CHAIR-LIFT DISPLAY APPARATUS AND METHOD
20170193868 · 2017-07-06 ·

A display system is easily attached to the safety bar of a chair on a chair lift system at the beginning of a season. The display system includes brackets formed of rails holding clamp portions that may be fastened together to clamp the display system to a chair, such as to the safety bar across the lap of a rider. At the end of a season, the display system may be removed from each chair, the clamp portions removed, and the display systems stacked. In one simplified system, adjacent displays may be stacked back to back, and such adjacent pairs may be stacked with the displays in adjacent pairs positioned face-to-face. Thus, metal brackets on the backs need not scratch up the reading faces or surfaces. Meanwhile, the displays may be stored in minimal space, with great stability, while minimizing wear and damage.

System for transporting people

A transport system has at least one hauling cable to which a cableway vehicle formed with running gear and a vehicle cab can be coupled. Alternatively, the system has a carrying cable or a track on which a cableway vehicle formed with running gear and a cab can be moved by a traction cable. The section with the hauling cable or carrying cable, or the track, is adjoined by a further track section along which a carrying vehicle for the cableway vehicle can be moved. The carrying vehicle has a drive motor. The running gear of the cableway vehicle runs onto and attaches to the carrying vehicle, whereupon the cableway vehicle is movable along the adjoining track by the carrying vehicle.
