Definitions
- the present invention relates to a seat for a ski lift installation, such as a chairlift for an aerial cableway installation.
- a chairlift of an aerial cable transport facility comprises in a known manner:
- a guardrail comprising a safety bar and several support bars fixed to the safety bar and extending transversely to the safety bar, the railing being movably mounted between a raised position and a lowered position, the guard body configured so that, when the railing is in the lowered position, the safety bar extends at least partially in front of the passengers sitting on the seat portions and each support bar extends between the legs of a user sitting on the respective seat part.
- each support bar advantageously comprises a footrest on which a passenger can rest his feet or his skis.
- a major disadvantage of such a chairlift lies in the fact that a small passenger, such as a child whose legs are shorter than those of an adult, can not rest his feet or his skis on the rest footboard associated with its place while being backed to the back of the chairlift.
