Definitions
- the invention relates to a continuous cable overhead cable transport installation between a power station and a return station, along a forward and a return track, of load vehicles carrying the load staggered empty on along one of said tracks and loaded along the other track, being disengageably coupled to said cable, said tracks having intermediate support pylons and said cable passing in the driving station on a driving pulley cable drive and in the return station on a return end pulley.
- CH-A-340 856 Several sections are frequently placed end to end, vehicles passing continuously from one section to another, by traveling on transfer rails and connecting successive sections.
- the vehicles are coupled to the tractor or tractor-carrier cable at an imposed rate to ensure regular intervals between successive vehicles and a uniform distribution of the load along the tracks.
- This regular distribution must be maintained along the entire installation, and it is easy to understand that the risks of phase shift are significant at the end of the line after several changes of sections, each of which disturbs the timing by travel speeds of the tracks. different transfers from one vehicle to another.
- the launching speed of the vehicles on the transfer tracks which is equal to that of the cable at the instant of the uncoupling of the vehicle, varies with the direction and the amplitude of the oscillation at this instant and at this location.
- the oscillation phenomena of the line also affect the adhesion of the coupling clamps of vehicles loaded on the cable, when these clamps are trapped by gravity on the cable and they are the cause of wear of the support elements, especially pebbles.
- the object of the present invention is to remedy these drawbacks and to allow the production of an installation equipped with a simple and effective stabilization device, suitable for operation at increased speed of the installation.
- the installation according to the invention is characterized in that a stabilization device is associated with the return pulley, the latter being coupled to a rotary electric machine capable of operating as a motor to exert a motor torque or as a generator to exert a braking torque of this return pulley and that a means for measuring the speed of rotation of the return pulley provides a comparator with a signal representative of the speed of the return pulley compared in said comparator with a speed signal displayed, said comparator controlling, as a function of the difference between said speed signals of the return pulley and the speed displayed, a power supply device for said motive machine, generator for exerting a motor torque or a braking torque of the pulley return, so as to stabilize the rotation of the return pulley and the running of the aerial cable along said tracks.
- a stabilization device is associated with the return pulley, the latter being coupled to a rotary electric machine capable of operating as a motor to exert a motor torque or as a generator to exert a braking torque of this return pulle
- the speed displayed must correspond to the speed at which the cable is driven to the drive station and the electric machine acts as a regulator of the rotation of the return pulley.
- the value of the displayed speed should be modified, automatically or manually, to adapt it to the variation in cable speed. This results in a notable reduction in the jolts and oscillations during these maneuvers.
- the vehicles In installations with several successive sections, each equipped with a device for stabilizing the return pulley, the vehicles, uncoupled from the cable at the level of the return pulley, engage on the transfer track at an initial speed corresponding to the stabilized speed of the return pulley and substantially equal for all vehicles, which travel the transfer path at substantially the same rate to maintain regular spacing.
- the electric machine coupled to the return pulley is advantageously a motor, DC generator powered by a double bridge or thyristor converter.
- a supply of an electric motor, in particular of an elevator, by a double thyristor bridge, is described in the document DE-A-1 463 653.
- the adjustment of the speed and the direction of rotation of the motor is controlled by modification the thyristor ignition cycle.
- the cable is driven by a single motor.
- the power of the electric machine associated with the return pulley is a fraction of the then of the drive pulley drive motor of the installation.
- the invention applies essentially to conveyors with very long sections and at high throughput, for example of several hundred tonnes per hour, but it is clear that it is applicable to any cable conveyor, the operation of which it improves by reducing or eliminating the cable oscillations, which can be a tractor - carrier cable or a tractor cable.
- a section 10 of an overhead cable transport installation of which only the return station 12 is shown in FIG. 1, is connected to a successive section 14, of which only the motor station 16 is shown in FIG. 1, the return station being identical to the return station 12 in section 10, just as the drive station in section 10 is identical to the drive station in section 12.
- the carrier may have a large number of sections for transport, especially of materials, over great distances, for example several tens of kilometers.
- the material is loaded at the drive station of the first section and unloaded at the return station of the last section, intermediate storage possibilities can be provided between two successive sections.
- the respectively driving and return stations of the different sections are identical and only those 16 and 12, shown in FIG. 1, will be described later.
- the conveyor is of the single cable type with an endless cable 18 extending in a loop between the driving station and the return station, one of the strands constituting a loaded forward path and the other a empty return channel.
- the cable 18 passes over a return pulley 20 with vertical axis 22.
- the drive station 16 the cable 18 passes over a drive pulley 26 and a return pulley 24, with horizontal axis whose spacing corresponds to that of the conveyor tracks, before passing over a tension pulley 28 with vertical axis, mounted on a movable carriage (not shown) in the direction of the conveyor tracks.
- the carriage carrying the tension pulley 28 is connected by a cable 30 passing over idler rollers 32 to a counterweight 34 for keeping the cable 18 under tension.
- the pulley 26 is rotated by an electric motor (not shown) and it communicates to the cable loop 18 a continuous scrolling movement. Rollers 36 for supporting the cable 18 are staggered along the tracks, being carried by pylons (not shown).
- Vehicles 38 in the form of wagons have rollers 40 for circulation on rails 42 in stations and a cable coupling clamp 18 in line.
- the vehicles 38 are coupled to the cable 18 at the power station, which constitutes the loading station and they travel the outward path while being loaded and the return path empty.
- the passage from one section 10 to another 14 is carried out by rolling the wagons 38 on transfer rails 42 in a manner well known to specialists, the uncoupling of the cable 18 being effected by opening the clamp at the end of section, in particular by lifting the vehicles 38 relative to the cable 18 by the rollers 40 engaging on the rails 42.
- On the transfer rails 42 the vehicles 38 travel by inertia being braked or accelerated by ramps or gradients.
- Loading and unloading or intermediate storage are not part of the invention and will not be described.
- the synchronization of the vehicles 38 with the cable 18 at the end of the launching ramp by gravity and before their coupling can be carried out by any suitable means, for example by a drive belt 44.
- a timing means 46 At the entrance to the launching ramp can be arranged a timing means 46.
- the shaft 22 of the return pulley 20 is coupled via a reduction gear 50 to an electric rotary machine 48.
- the machine 48 which can operate as a motor or as a brake generator, is supplied by an electrical power supply unit 52 controlled by a comparator 54 which receives on the one hand a signal from a tachometric generator 56, coupled to the machine 48 and on the other hand a signal from a display device 58.
- the machine 48 is advantageously direct current, the armature current of which is supplied by a thyristor bridge.
- the signal displayed on the device 58 must correspond to the speed of drive of the cable 18 to the motor station 16 and the comparator 54 checks at all times whether the speed of rotation of the return pulley 20, measured by the tachometer generator 56, corresponds at the speed displayed. If the speed of the return pulley is too slow. the comparator 54 detects this difference and modifies the ignition of the thyristors to operate the machine 48 as a cable drive motor. This motor force remains as long as a speed difference is detected by the comparator 54. If on the other hand the return pulley 20 rotates too quickly the comparator drives the power supply to operate the machine 48 in electric brake, which brakes the cable running 18.
- the inventive device stabilizes the speed of rotation of the return pulley and consequently the running speed of the cable 18 at the end of the section. This results on the one hand in a constant speed of launching of the vehicles 38 on the transfer rails 42, a speed which corresponds to that of the cable 18 at the time of uncoupling of the vehicle and on the other hand a significant elimination or reduction of the oscillations along of the line. This reduction allows an increase in speed of operation of the installation and thereby the flow.
- the speed displayed 58 must at all times correspond to the speed of the drive station if one wishes to avoid an overload and untimely action of the machine 48, operating either as a motor or as a brake.
- the adjustment can be made by remote transmission or more simply manually following precise instructions or automatically by a program.
- the stabilization device does not require any electrical control or supply link between the drive station and the return station, which can be distant by several kilometers.
- the device is simple and does not use any particular fragile material, the power regulation device can of course be of any type.
- the stabilization device consumes practically no energy, the driving energy being recovered at least partially during braking.
- the stabilization effect described in application to a conveyor with several successive sections, can of course be applied to a conveyor with a single section for materials or people, in particular cable cars or chairlifts. It allows an increase in the operating speed and a decrease in wear of the moving parts.
- the power station can be upstream or downstream and the transporter can be of the single-cable or two-cable type.
