  • the present patent application is based on the object of creating a system for transporting people in which it is not necessary to arrange two successive conveyor ropes next to one another in their end regions and to provide a transversely adjustable coupling device.
  • this is achieved in that the at least two successive conveyor ropes are arranged in the longitudinal direction of the system, at least approximately in a line, that the vehicles are designed with at least two clamping devices spaced apart from one another in the longitudinal direction of the system, and that a control device is provided , through which at the transition of a vehicle from one hoisting rope to the following hoisting rope at least the first clamping device located in the direction of travel is uncoupled from the first hoisting rope and then coupled to the following hoisting rope and subsequently the at least one further clamping device is also uncoupled from the first hoisting rope and then attached the following hoist rope is coupled.
  • the control device is preferably formed by a control rail, by means of which the clamping devices located on it are brought into their open position when the vehicle moves, whereby the vehicle is uncoupled from the first hoisting rope and subsequently coupled to the following hoisting rope.
  • the control rail can be designed with preferably wedge-shaped control ramps at both ends.
  • control ramps can preferably be pivoted and adjusted in height by means of adjusting devices.
  • each of the clamping devices is preferably assigned a control roller mounted on a control lever, which runs onto the control rail, whereby the clamping devices are brought into their open positions.
  • the vehicle is preferably brought to a standstill in the area of a control rail and the conveyor ropes are also stopped, whereupon control ramps are pivoted, whereby at least the first clamping device in the direction of movement of the vehicle is coupled to the conveyor cable and the following clamping devices are uncoupled from the first conveyor cable and becomes the following Conveyor rope driven, whereupon the other clamping devices are successively coupled to the following conveyor rope.
  • the two hoisting ropes can be driven at the same speeds, the individual clamping devices being successively uncoupled from the first hoisting rope and being coupled to the following hoisting rope by moving the vehicle over a control rail.
  • a self-contained hoisting rope 1 and a second self-contained hoisting rope 2 following this approximately in a straight line are provided in a system according to the invention for transporting people.
  • a system can have any number of successive hoisting ropes in each of the directions of travel.
  • the ends of the first hoisting rope 1 are laid over rope drums 10, which are rotatably mounted about an at least approximately horizontally aligned axis, the hoisting rope 1 having an upper run 11 and a lower run 12.
  • the second hoisting rope 2 is placed at its ends over rope drums 20, which also around a at least approximately horizontally aligned axles are rotatably mounted, the second hoisting rope 2 also having an upper strand 21 and a lower strand 22.
  • At least one of the cable drums 10 and 20 is assigned a drive, by means of which the two conveyor cables 1 and 2 can be moved.
  • the two upper strands 11 and 21 of the two conveyor ropes 1 and 2 are guided over rope support rollers 13 and 23.
  • the vehicles 3 By means of the two conveyor ropes 1 and 2, several vehicles 3 can be moved along a roadway.
  • the vehicles 3 are designed with several clamping devices 31, 32, 33, 34 and 35 arranged at a distance from one another in the direction of movement, which can be coupled to the respective upper cable strands 11 and 21 of the hoisting ropes 1 and 2, whereby the vehicles 3 in the direction of the arrow A are movable.
  • a device 4 for controlling the clamping devices 31 to 35 is also provided in the area of the transition of the vehicles 3 from the first hoisting rope 1 to the following hoisting rope 2.
  • the vehicle 3 is coupled to the upper cable run 11 of the first hoisting cable 1 by means of all coupling devices 31 to 35.
  • vehicle groups can also be provided.
  • the system has a track 5, which is preferably formed by two rails and along which at least one vehicle 3 can be moved.
  • a first hoisting rope 1 is provided, which at its end shown in the drawing is guided over a deflection drum 10 and over a deflection drum 10a.
  • This first hoisting rope 1 is followed in a straight line by a second hoisting rope 2 which, at its beginning shown in the drawing, is guided over a deflection drum 20 and a deflection drum 20a.
  • the two conveyor ropes 1 and 2 each have an upper rope run 11 and 21 and a lower rope run 12 and 22, respectively.
  • the vehicle 3 is designed with pairs of clamping devices 31, 32, 33, 34 and 35, by means of which it can be coupled to the respective upper run 11 or 21 of the two conveyor ropes 1 and 2.
  • a control rail 4 is provided, at the two ends of which control ramps 41 and 42 are provided which can be pivoted about horizontal axes 43a and 44a by means of actuating cylinders 43 and 44 assigned to them.
  • the vehicle 3 When the system is in operation, the vehicle 3 is moved in the direction of arrow A in the area of the transition between the two conveyor ropes 1 and 2.
  • Control rollers of the clamping devices 31 to 34 run successively over the first control ramp 41, which is in its lower pivot position, onto the control rail 4 and onto the second control ramp 42, which is in its upper pivot position, whereby the clamping devices 31 to 34 are brought into their open position and held in this, whereas the clamping device 35 remains coupled to the first hoisting rope 1.
  • the first hoisting rope 1 In this position of the vehicle 3, the first hoisting rope 1 is stopped.
  • the first control ramp 41 is then pivoted into its upper position, as a result of which the clamping devices 35 are also uncoupled from the first hoisting rope 1. This position is in the FIG.7 and FIG.7a shown.
  • the vehicle 3 is moved further in the direction of the arrow A.
  • the clamping devices 32 to 35 also successively move into their closed position, whereby the vehicle 3 is also coupled to the second hoisting rope 2 by means of the clamping devices 32 to 35.
  • the control rail 4 is formed at its beginning and at its end with fixed control ramps 41 and 42, by which the pairs of clamping devices 31 to 35 are controlled by the movement of the vehicles 3 over the control rail 4.
  • the two Conveyor ropes 1 and 2 driven at the same speed, the vehicle 3 being moved at the speed of the two conveyor ropes 1 and 2 during the transition from the first conveyor cable 1 to the second conveyor cable 2.
  • the clamping devices 31 to 35 When driving over the control rail 4, the clamping devices 31 to 35 are successively brought into their open position by the first control ramp 41, whereby they are uncoupled from the first hoisting rope 1, and they are held in the open position by the control rail 4. As soon as they come into the area of the second control ramp 42, they are brought back into the closed position, as a result of which the vehicle 3 is coupled to the second hoisting rope 2.
  • the two conveyor ropes 1 and 2 are moved synchronously.
  • the vehicle 3 can be stopped by switching off the drives for the hoisting ropes 1 and 2 in order to enable the passengers to get on or off.
  • At least one conveyor device 6 is provided by means of which the vehicle 3 is not yet connected to the second hoisting rope 2 at the stage in which it is uncoupled from the first hoisting rope 1 and not yet connected to the second hoisting rope 2 is coupled, as long as it is moved in the direction of arrow A until it is coupled to the second hoisting rope 2.
  • the conveying device is formed by two drive motors 61, by which at least one drive roller 63 is driven via wedge rims 62 and comes into effect on a drive surface 64 of the vehicle 3.
  • the clamping devices 31 to 35 located on the vehicle 3 are designed with a control lever 7 on which a control roller 71 is mounted.
  • the control roller 71 is under the action of a compression spring 72, by means of which the clamping devices 31 to 35 are brought into their closed position.
  • the control lever 7 is adjusted against the compression spring 72 so that the clamping devices 31 to 35 reach their open position, whereby the vehicle 3 is uncoupled from the conveyor ropes.
  • the vehicle 3 is designed with a vehicle frame 81, with running wheels 82 which roll on rails 51 and 52 of the roadway 5, with guide rollers 83 and with damping elements 84.
