Ropeway Transport System
A ropeway or cable system is disclosed having at least two cable loops (1,20) that form a track, a first loop extending directly between two end station embarking or disembarking stations of the track, and a second loop extending between the two end stations via intermediate embarking or disembarking stations) or turning towers on the track. A vehicle (2) is carried from a loop, the vehicle (2) having a cable gripping mechanism (37, 38, 43, 44), the cable gripping mechanism being capable of switching attachment of the vehicle between two or more cable loops (1,20), so as to change the loop that carries the vehicle (2).
Electric aerial sky tram
An aerial sky tram system includes a plurality of towers, a cable track suspended from the plurality of towers by a support cable, and a sky tram coupled to the cable track. The sky tram includes a plurality of rotors that propel the sky tram along the cable track.

Supply of a trolley chain with electricity
A system for supplying power to a trolley chain. The system includes: a trolley chain, consisting of at least two trollies coupled with one another, wherein the trolley chain has a closed bus; and a stationary energy conductor along the track of the trolley chain. The stationary energy conductor consists of one or more successive segments, which are spaced apart from each other. The closed bus has several transmission heads, which are designed to supply the closed bus with electricity from the stationary energy conductor without contacting the stationary energy conductor, if they are within a pre-determined distance to the stationary energy conductor. During a journey of the trolley chain along the track, at each moment in time, at least one of the transmission heads supplies the closed bus with electricity from the stationary energy conductor.
Personalized elevated urban transport
A bidirectional overhead urban transport (TUEP) for a large transportation capacity, which is suspended over a series of poles, without interfering with the traffic of vehicles and pedestrians surface, which is characterized by having a continuum of autonomous cabins circulating about a tubular track suspended by static wires hanging from the poles. The system has overhead stations for passengers, by which access is given to the suspended cabins, moved by autonomous and independent electric motors which rotate a drive pulley rolling on the upper back of a horizontal tubular track raised or inclined according to the topography of the ground. The peculiarity of this transport system is that each of the cabins that are only for two passengers, travels directly to a destination station, where is diverted from the main flow to a station, so it is not necessary to stop the main flow of cabins, which results in the although circulating at low to moderate speed, the time required to travel is reduced.

PARKING STORAGE FACILITY FOR CABLEWAY VEHICLE
A parking storage facility for cableway vehicles of a circulating cableway includes a parking conveyor with a continuous conveyor in longitudinal parking track sections and a tire conveyor in a parking track curve section, wherein a tire conveying speed of the tire conveyor increases in a first overlap region during transition from a first longitudinal parking track section to the parking track curve section to accelerate the cableway vehicle with the tire conveyor. Concurrently, the engagement of a pusher dog on the cableway vehicle is released, and the tire conveying speed of the tire conveyor decreases in a second overlap region during transition from the parking track curve section to a second longitudinal parking track section to decelerate the cableway vehicle. Concurrently, a pusher dogs on a traction means of the continuous conveyor engages the cableway vehicle.
Hanger trolley system
A hanger trolley system includes: a driving chain provided in a power rail; a hanger trolley including a hanger dog attached to and detached from a chain dog provided in the driving chain and moving along a free rail formed below the power rail; and a sensor confirming coupling between the chain dog and the hanger dog. A coupled state between the chain dog provided in the driving chain and the hanger dog provided in the hanger trolley is confirmed through the sensor, such that judgment on succession when the hanger trolley is succeeded from a pre-process driving chain to a post-process driving chain becomes clearer as compared with the related art.
CONVEYANCE DEVICE
At least one of a front trolley and a rear trolley, which are load trolleys, has a trolley frame, and a front sub-trolley and a rear sub-trolley which are positioned at a front and a rear of the trolley frame below the trolley frame. Each of the front sub-trolley and the rear sub-trolley has a sub-trolley body, a left bracket, a right bracket, and vertical rollers. The sub-trolley body is attached to the trolley frame so as to be rotatable about a first vertical shaft. The left bracket and the right bracket individually swing relative to the sub-trolley body around the first left-right shaft. The vertical rollers roll on a rail while being respectively supported by a second left-right shaft and a third left-right shaft of the left bracket and the right bracket.
