The invention refers to a system for monitoring the position of the doors of a moving car in a cable transportation system, the car comprising two doors and the monitoring system comprising an electronic control unit. The monitoring system comprises a detection target on each door, and a fixed detection device, such as a proximity switch with a field of action, which emits a detection signal when a target passes through the field of action, which is connected to the control unit and is positioned so that it can emit a detection signal when the car passes through a control zone. The control unit determines that the two doors of the car are correctly positioned if the distance between the two doors is less than a predetermined opening threshold.

To simplify the transport of objects with a transport vehicle of a cableway and the loading and unloading of objects, in particular bicycles or other sports or leisure equipment, it is provided that a vehicle component of a drive gear mechanism is rotatably mounted on the transport vehicle, and a station component is arranged in at least one cableway station and interacts at least temporarily with the vehicle component to form a drive gear mechanism when the transport vehicle passes through the cableway station in a direction of conveyance. A receiving part having a plurality of receiving devices for releasably receiving the object is arranged on the transport vehicle, and the receiving part is movable relative to the transport vehicle, and the movement thereof is driven by the vehicle component of the drive gear mechanism.

In order to make it easier to access an access unit (4) of a cableway support (1) of a cableway (2), according to the invention a climb-over apparatus (15) for persons to climb over from a cable car (7) of the cableway (2) onto the access unit (4) or vice versa is provided on the cableway support (1), wherein the climb-over apparatus (15) is positioned on the cableway support (1) by means of a fastening unit (21) so as to be movable relative to the access unit (4), wherein the climb-over apparatus (15) can be displaced relative to the access unit (4) from a rest position (RP), in which the climb-over apparatus (15) is stowed on the access unit (4), into a standby position (BP), which is provided for performing the climb-over action.

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.

A system for the transportation of loads and/or persons at height comprises at least one car defining at least one cab for the transportation of loads and/or persons, and comprises a (tangible) cable transport component/unit/device/machine (or the like) of the car adapted to move the latter suspended at height; and a (tangible) movement component/unit/device/machine (or the like) of the car onto the ground.

Installation for transporting vehicles hauled by a cable, including an image acquisition system generating an image representative of a compartment of a vehicle, and an electronic control unit retrieving an identifier of the vehicle and recording the identifier and the representative image associated with the identifier in a non-volatile memory.

In order to simplify the troubleshooting in a cableway during operation of the cableway, a unique car identification is assigned to each car, with the car identification of each car being known by the cableway control system. At least one function monitoring unit transmits malfunctions triggered by cars during the operation of the cableway to the cableway control system in a function status message FSi. The cableway control system assigns a malfunction that was received to the triggering car and the malfunctions together with the car identification of the triggering car are stored and evaluated in the cableway control system.

A ski pole holder for attachment to a chairlift is disclosed. A lower body portion includes a slot slightly wider than a ski pole shaft. An upper body portion includes a floor with a slot corresponding to the lower body slot, a peripheral wall with an opening in front, and an attachment to a bar of the chairlift.

Emergency egress systems carry multiple riders simultaneously accessing a zip line (catenary) from higher, accessible, working locations to lower, safer areas in a marine environment. Hangers above the track line suspend trolleys to avoid weighting the catenary unduly at the high end, which might otherwise alter (reduce) clearance distances and safety of riders above a launch platform (deck). Catenary shape is controlled against approaching the launch deck by sequencing the release from the hangers of each trolley to roll along the catenary with its own rider. Track line systems installed may be left undeployed indefinitely. Deployment of a track line will typically be fully effected at the time of egress, adding time but eliminating permanent obstructions that would result if a permanent deployment of track lines were undertaken. Terminal ends are anchored and configured to accommodate workers arriving after escape.

Installation of transport by overhead cable including at least one chair configured to be suspended on the overhead cable and including a pivoting seat surface, a back rest and a pivoting mechanism to modify the inclination of the seat surface with respect to the back rest, the installation including an actuator configured to cooperate with the pivoting mechanism so as to control pivoting of the seat surface, the actuator being mounted movable between a raised position in which the actuator controls raising of the seat surface in the direction of the back rest and a lowered position in which the actuator controls lowering of the seat surface.
