A belt-conveying aerial system comprising: a pair of top fixed load-bearing ropes, which are parallel to one another and are set at a distance apart from one another in a transverse direction; a pair of bottom fixed load-bearing ropes; and a belt conveyor comprising a plurality of modules, which are aligned along the load-bearing ropes, are fixedly connected to the load-bearing ropes, and guide a belt for conveying materials; the modules being connected to the load-bearing ropes via an installation vehicle having a supporting top carriage mobile on the top load-bearing ropes, a pair of resting platforms suspended from the top carriage, and, for each bottom load-bearing rope, at least one pair of wheels, which are rotatable in contact with the respective bottom load-bearing rope and are set upstream and downstream of the corresponding module.

Ropeway self-propelled transporting equipment, comprising a transporting device (1) which runs along a ropeway rope, wherein the transporting device (1) comprises a sliding adjusting mechanism (2), a transmission mechanism (3) and a pull arm (4); and the sliding adjusting mechanism (2) and the transmission mechanism (3) are movably connected to the pull arm (4) respectively. The sliding adjusting mechanism (2) is arranged on the pull arm (4), and a first transmission component (21), a second transmission component (22) and a third transmission component (23) of the sliding adjusting mechanism (2) enclose a ropeway rope clamping area. When the ropeway rope is positioned in the ropeway rope clamping area, the ropeway rope is clamped to the first transmission component (21), the second transmission component (22) and the third transmission component (23) so that the transporting device (1) may freely slide along the ropeway rope. In addition, a first lifting component (20) is provided on the sliding adjusting mechanism (2). The ropeway rope clamping area may adapt to ropeway ropes of different sizes and smoothly traverse a ropeway rope junction or a ropeway support bend. Therefore, the applicability of the present transporting device (1) is improved.

A portable line ascending device to enable users to ascend an incline on sliding or rolling sporting by travelling up an anchored line with the line ascending device. The device includes a mount, a plurality of sheaves connected to the mount, a motor driving the plurality of sheaves, and a power supply to supply electricity to the motor. The plurality of sheaves are configured to enable a line to be wound around at least a portion of each sheave of the plurality of sheaves and operable to engage the line to pull the line through the plurality of sheaves such that the line ascending device travels along the line.

An energy storage and delivery system includes one or more cableways and a cage that travels along each of the one or more cableways. The cage is coupled (e.g., fixedly coupled) to one or more cables that extend between a lower elevation and a higher elevation, the cables or steel ribbons being translated along the associated cableway by a traction motor wheel to translate the cage along the associated cableway. The system is operable to pick-up, transport and deliver with the cage a plurality of blocks from the lower elevation to the higher elevation to store energy (e.g., via the potential energy of the block). The system is also operable to pick-up, transport and deliver with the cage a plurality of blocks from the higher elevation to the lower elevation at least partially under force of gravity to generate electricity via an electric generator coupled to the traction motor wheel.
