A device for locking a pivotal protective device, such as a safety bracket or a weather protection hood, of a chair for a chairlift. The device has interacting projections, one of which is connected to a frame of the chair and the other of which is connected to the protective device. At least one of the projections is resiliently mounted, and the projections are equipped with sliding surfaces which produce a deformation of the resilient bracket after a defined force has been applied to the safety bracket and allow the projections to slide past one another in both directions.

A passenger cable transportation system, the cable system comprising: at least one cabin for transporting passengers; at least one station for passengers boarding and landing from the cabin; two lateral guides facing each other and configured to guide the cabin into the station along an advancing direction, wherein there is a clearance between the lateral guides and the cabin; and at least one blocking device configured to block the cabin in relation to the lateral guides at least along a direction transversal to the advancing direction level with at least one part of the station.

For travel on a cable, the zipline trolley includes a wheel, a brake, a frame, a hanger, and a lower slot. The wheel is disposed on a proximal end of a frame. The wheel includes a groove that receives a cable at a lower portion of the wheel and a wheel bearing. The brake is disposed on a distal end of the frame. The brake is connected to a given lever point and includes a groove along a brake bottom that receives the cable. The frame includes an array of lever points disposed between the brake and the wheel. The hanger is connected to a given lever point and suspends a weight. The weight applies a force about the wheel to the brake to control a rate of descent of the device along the cable. The lower slot receives the cable.

A corner connection is provided between support elements of a cableway cabin. The corner connection has a support element (1), designed as an elongated strut having a hollow end (2), and an angled connecting element (3) having a connecting piece (4). The connecting piece (4) is insertable into the hollow end (2) of the support element (1) in a form-fitting manner. An inner shape of the hollow end (2) and an outer shape of the connecting piece (4) have an angular design. At least two oppositely situated surfaces of the hollow end (2) and the connecting piece (4) are provided in a form-fitting manner in such a way that a gap (14, 14) remains between the inner surface (10, 10) of the hollow end (2) and the outer surface (9, 9) of the connecting piece (4), wherein an adhesive material is provided in the gap (14, 14).

An overhead transport vehicle includes a fall prevention mechanism including a first rotary member, a fall prevention member, and a second rotary member. The first rotary member includes a base end portion supported so as to be rotatable about a first rotation shaft extending along direction Y. The fall prevention member is provided in a tip end portion of the first rotary member and is movable to a space below a cassette. The second rotary member includes a base end portion supported so as to be rotatable about a second rotation shaft extending along direction Z, and a tip end portion to which the first rotary member is attached.

A cable car system has vehicles which are coupled to a conveying cable between stations. The vehicles are decoupled from the conveying cable in the stations and are moved through the stations along guide rails. The vehicles are formed with current collectors and the stations have associated power rails. In at least one of the vehicles there is located a circuit with at least one electrical load which is supplied with electrical energy via the current collector and the power rails. At least one second circuit with at least one further electrical load is located in at least one vehicle. The second circuit is supplied with electrical energy via a single further current collector and a power rail assigned thereto. The two circuits are connected to a common current collector to which a single power rail is assigned.
