Description

L'invention concerne une installation de transport à câbles aériens à suspente décalée.The invention relates to an overhead cable transport installation with offset suspension.

On connaît déjà - voir brevet européen 93.680 - une installation à câbles aériens comportant des véhicules associés rigidement et de façon débrayable par l'intermédiaire d'un chariot à deux câbles por­teurs et tracteurs sans fin par des moyens d'association comportant des pinces de serrage venant normalement en appui sur la partie supé­rieure des câbles, les deux câbles étant écartés l'un de l'autre horizon­talement. Dans cette structure qui présente une parfaite symétrie par rapport à un plan vertical, la chariot est placé entre les deux câbles. Pour pourvoir dissocier complètement le véhicule - notamment son chariot - des câbles dans les stations d'extrémité et éviter toute inteférence, on prévoit, dans ces stations que l'écartement des câbles est modifié, ce qui nécessite la présence de galets de déviation avec tous les inconvénients inhérents. De plus, les deux câbles doivent être écartés au minimum de la distance nécessaire au passage du chariot et des pinces.There is already known - see European patent 93.680 - an overhead cable installation comprising vehicles rigidly and disengageably associated by means of a carriage with two endless carrying cables and tractors by means of association comprising clamps normally coming to bear on the upper part of the cables, the two cables being separated from each other horizontally. In this structure which has perfect symmetry with respect to a vertical plane, the carriage is placed between the two cables. To be able to completely dissociate the vehicle - in particular its trolley - from the cables in the end stations and avoid any interference, provision is made in these stations for the cable spacing to be modified, which requires the presence of deflection rollers with all the inherent disadvantages. In addition, the two cables must be separated at least the distance necessary for the passage of the carriage and the clamps.

On connaît aussi - voir brevet français 1 249 949 - une installation à deux câbles aériens porteurs et tracteurs dans laquelle les pinces de maintien débrayables viennent en appui sur la partie inférieure des câbles, ces pinces étant portées par un chariot placé entre les deux câbles. Dans cette structure également symétrique par rapport à un plan vertical, on réalise la dissociation complète et sans interfé­ rence du véhicule et des câbles par simple ouverture des pinces et écartement relatif dans le sens vertical des câbles et du véhicule - en l'occurrence le chariot. Cependant, cette structure a comme inconvénient de nécessiter une prise des câbles par dessous, ce que l'on souhaite généralement éviter pour d'évidentes raisons de sécurité.There is also known - see French patent 1,249,949 - an installation with two overhead carrier cables and tractors in which the disengageable clamps come to bear on the lower part of the cables, these clamps being carried by a carriage placed between the two cables. In this structure, which is also symmetrical with respect to a vertical plane, complete dissociation is carried out without interference rence of the vehicle and cables by simply opening the clamps and relative spacing in the vertical direction of the cables and the vehicle - in this case the trolley. However, this structure has the disadvantage of requiring an outlet for the cables from below, which one generally wishes to avoid for obvious security reasons.

On connaît enfin - voir brevet suisse no 427.885 - un téléphérique à deux câbles aériens, l'un porteur, l'autre tracteur, décalés l'un de l'autre en sens vertical. Dans une telle installation la cabine est asso­ciée en permanence au câble porteur de sorte que le problème de la dissociation sans interférence d'un véhicule d'entre deux câbles porteurs-tracteurs ne se pose pas.Finally known - see Swiss Patent No. 427 885 - a cable to two overhead cables, one carrier, the other tractor, offset from one another in vertical direction. In such an installation, the cabin is permanently associated with the carrying cable so that the problem of dissociation without interference of a vehicle between two carrying cables-tractors does not arise.

L'invention vise donc à résoudre le problème de la dissociation complète et sans interférence d'un véhicule d'une installation de transport à deux câbles porteurs et tracteurs, aériens, de type débrayable. Plus précisément, l'invention vise à éviter de devoir modifier l'écartement entre les câbles ou de devoir saisir ces câbles par dessous ou de devoir écarter les câbles d'une distance minimale autorisant le passage entre eux du véhicule ou du chariot auquel il est associé.The invention therefore aims to solve the problem of complete separation without interference of a vehicle from a transport installation with two carrying cables and tractors, overhead, of disengageable type. More specifically, the invention aims to avoid having to modify the spacing between the cables or having to grip these cables from below or having to separate the cables by a minimum distance allowing the passage between them of the vehicle or of the carriage to which it is associated.

A cet effet, l'invention propose une installation de transport à câbles aériens comportant un ou plusieurs véhicules séparés, chacun de ces véhicules étant associé rigidement et de façon débrayable par l'inter­médiaire d'une suspente à deux câbles porteurs et tracteurs sans fin, par des moyens d'association comportant des pinces de serrage qui viennent normalement en appui sur des mêmes parties des câbles, notamment supérieures, les câbles étant écartés l'un de l'autre. Cette installation est caractérisée par le fait que les deux câbles sont placés d'un même côté de la suspente.To this end, the invention provides an overhead cable transport installation comprising one or more separate vehicles, each of these vehicles being rigidly and disengageably associated by means of a hanger with two endless carrying cables and tractors, by association means comprising clamps which normally come to bear on the same parts of the cables, in particular the upper ones, the cables being spaced from one another. This installation is characterized by the fact that the two cables are placed on the same side of the hanger.

Selon d'autres caractéristiques de l'invention, les deux câbles sont écartés horizontalement et/ou verticalement l'un de l'autre. La suspente peut comporter au moins un bras horizontal auquel est associé au moins une pince de maintien débrayable ou, de préférence, au moins une paire de pince. Les pinces sont dirigées dans le même sens ou dans des sens opposés. Enfin, le centre de gravité du véhicule est placé entre les deux câbles.According to other features of the invention, the two cables are spaced horizontally and / or vertically from one another. The hanger may include at least one horizontal arm with which is associated at least one disengageable holding clamp or, preferably, at least one pair of clamps. The clamps are directed in the same direction or in opposite directions. Finally, the center of gravity of the vehicle is placed between the two cables.

Les autres caractéristiques de l'invention résulteront de la description qui suivra en référence aux dessins annexés dans lesquels:
. Les figures 1a, 2a, 3a sont trois vues schématiques en élévation, partielles, de trois variantes possibles et non limitatives d'une installa­tion selon l'invention.
. Les figures 1b, 2b, 3b sont trois vues schématiques de profil, partiel­les de trois variantes possibles et non limitatives d'une installation selon l'invention.The other characteristics of the invention will result from the description which follows with reference to the accompanying drawings in which:
. Figures 1a, 2a, 3a are three schematic elevational views, partial, of three possible and non-limiting variants of an installation according to the invention.
. Figures 1b, 2b, 3b are three schematic side views, partial of three possible and non-limiting variants of an installation according to the invention.

L'invention concerne une installation de transport comportant un ou plusieurs véhicules 1 séparés, associés chacun rigidement et de façon débrayable par l'intermédiaire d'une suspente 2 à deux câbles porteurs et tracteurs 3a, 3b, sans fin, aériens, par des moyens d'association comportant des pinces de serrage 4 qui viennent normalement en appui sur des mêmes parties des câbles 3a, 3b.The invention relates to a transport installation comprising one or more separate vehicles 1, each associated rigidly and disengageably by means of a hanger 2 with two carrying cables and tractors 3a, 3b, endless, overhead, by means association comprising clamps 4 which normally come to bear on the same parts of cables 3a, 3b.

Le véhicule 1 est destiné au transport de personnes ou de marchandi­ses et se présente sous la forme générale d'une benne ou cabine compor­tant un plancher ou fond non représenté, des parois latérales 5 dont seule l'extrémité supérieure est représentée sur les dessins et un toit 6.The vehicle 1 is intended for the transport of people or goods and is in the general form of a bucket or cabin comprising a floor or bottom not shown, side walls 5 of which only the upper end is shown in the drawings and a roof 6.

La suspente 2 comporte une partie verticale 7 raccordée à son extrémité inférieure 8 à un bras horizontal 9, associé rigidement par son extré­mité libre 10 au véhicule 1, notamment au toit 6, par l'intermédiaire de moyens d'articulation 11. La partie verticale 7 et le bras horizontal inférieur 9 sont par exemple réalisés au moyen d'un tube métallique coudé.The hanger 2 has a vertical part 7 connected at its lower end 8 to a horizontal arm 9, rigidly associated by its free end 10 with the vehicle 1, in particular with the roof 6, by means of articulation means 11. The vertical part 7 and the lower horizontal arm 9 are for example produced by means of a bent metal tube.

Les câbles 3a, 3b, sont représentés sur les figures par leur section droite transversale. Ils sont portés par des pylônes au moyen de galets, non représentés, et ceci entre des stations d'extrémité et éventuelle­ment une ou plusieurs stations intermédiaires également non représen­tées.The cables 3a, 3b are shown in the figures by their cross section. They are carried by pylons by means of rollers, not shown, and this between end stations and possibly one or more intermediate stations also not shown.

Aux câbles 3a, 3b sont associés des moyens d'entraînement, d'équilibrage, connus en soi dans ce type d'installation et ne faisant pas directement l'objet de l'invention et pour cette raison non représentés.The cables 3a, 3b are associated with drive, balancing means, known per se in this type of installation and not directly forming the subject of the invention and for this reason not shown.

Les pinces 4 sont du type débrayable comportant un mors fixe 12, un mors mobile 13 articulé sur le mors fixe 12, un levier de commande 14 du mors mobile 13 terminé à l'une de ses extrémités par le mors mobile 13 et à l'autre extrémité par un galet de débrayage 15. Un ressort 16 sollicite en permanence le levier 14 vers l'état fermé du mors mobile 13 où les mors fixe 12 et mobile 13 emprisonnent le câble 3a, 3b.The clamps 4 are of the disengageable type comprising a fixed jaw 12, a movable jaw 13 articulated on the fixed jaw 12, a control lever 14 of the movable jaw 13 terminated at one of its ends by the movable jaw 13 and at the other end by a declutching roller 15. A spring 16 urges permanently the lever 14 towards the closed state of the movable jaw 13 where the fixed jaw 12 and movable jaw 13 trap the cable 3a, 3b.

Un galet de débrayage 15 coopère dans une station avec un rail de débrayage de profil approprié de manière que le mors mobile 13 puisse être écarté du mors fixe 12 (ouverture de la pince 4 et donc débrayage) et ceci à l'encontre du ressort 16. Le rail de débrayage également connu en soi n'est pas représenté sur les figures.A declutching roller 15 cooperates in a station with a declutching rail of suitable profile so that the movable jaw 13 can be moved away from the fixed jaw 12 (opening of the clamp 4 and therefore declutching) and this against the spring 16 The declutching rail also known per se is not shown in the figures.

Les câbles 3a, 3b, sont écartés l'un de l'autre ainsi qu'il est mention­né ci-dessous. Les pinces 4 viennent préférentiellement en appui sur les parties supérieures des câbles 3a, 3b, et ceci pour des raisons de sécurité. Toutefois, l'installation est également applicable au cas de pinces venant serrer les câbles 3a, 3b sur le côté ou encore par dessous.The cables 3a, 3b, are spaced from each other as mentioned below. The clamps 4 preferably come to bear on the upper parts of the cables 3a, 3b, and this for safety reasons. However, the installation is also applicable in the case of pliers tightening the cables 3a, 3b on the side or even from below.

Selon l'invention, les deux câbles 3a, 3b, sont placés d'un même côté de la suspente 2. Cela signifie que les deux câbles 3a, 3b, sont placés soit d'un côté, soit de l'autre de la partie verticale 7 de la suspente 2.According to the invention, the two cables 3a, 3b, are placed on the same side of the hanger 2. This means that the two cables 3a, 3b, are placed either on one side or on the other of the part vertical 7 of the hanger 2.

Dans une première variante de réalisation (figure 1), les deux câbles 3a, 3b, sont écartés horizontalement l'un de l'autre.In a first alternative embodiment (Figure 1), the two cables 3a, 3b, are spaced horizontally from each other.

Dans une deuxième variante (figure 2) les deux câbles 3a, 3b, sont écartés verticalement l'un de l'autre.In a second variant (Figure 2) the two cables 3a, 3b, are spaced vertically from one another.

Dans une troisième variante (figure 3) les deux câbles 3a, 3b, sont écartés horizontalement et verticalement l'un de l'autre.In a third variant (Figure 3) the two cables 3a, 3b, are spaced horizontally and vertically from each other.

Les deux câbles 3a, 3b, parallèles et écartés transversalement l'un de l'autre définissent donc un plan qui est respectivement horizontal et perpendiculaire à la partie verticale 7 (figure 1), vertical (figure 2), incliné sur la partie verticale 7 par exemple à 45° environ. Dans ce dernier cas (figure 3), le plan des câbles 3a, 3b passe préférentielle­ ment à l'endroit ou au voisinage de l'extrémité inférieure 8 de la partie verticale 7.The two cables 3a, 3b, parallel and spaced transversely from one another therefore define a plane which is respectively horizontal and perpendicular to the vertical part 7 (FIG. 1), vertical (FIG. 2), inclined to the vertical part 7 for example at about 45 °. In the latter case (FIG. 3), the plane of the cables 3a, 3b passes preferentially lying at or near the lower end 8 of the vertical part 7.

La suspente 2 comporte outre la partie verticale 7 et le bras horizontal inférieur 9 au moins un bras horizontal 17 associé à la partie extrême supérieure 18 de la partie verticale 7 et auquel est associée au moins une pince 4, ou, de préférence, au moins une paire de pinces 4.The hanger 2 comprises, in addition to the vertical part 7 and the lower horizontal arm 9, at least one horizontal arm 17 associated with the upper end part 18 of the vertical part 7 and with which is associated at least one clamp 4, or, preferably, at least a pair of pliers 4.

Les deux pinces 4 d'une même paire de pinces 4 sont semblables, coaxiales et décalées longitudinalement l'une de l'autre pour coopérer avec un même câble 3a ou 3b.The two clamps 4 of the same pair of clamps 4 are similar, coaxial and offset longitudinally from one another to cooperate with the same cable 3a or 3b.

Dans la première variante (figure 1), la suspente 2 comporte un bras 17 unique sur lequel sont montées deux paires de pinces 4, l'une à la partie extrême libre 19 du bras 17 et l'autre sur le bras 17 et au voisinage de la partie verticale 7. Dans la deuxième variante (figure 2) la suspente 2 comporte un premier bras 17 avec une paire de pinces unique 4 à sa partie extrême libre 19 et un second bras 20 de même structure générale que le bras 17 comportant également une paire unique de pinces 4, s'étendant parallèlement, tout en étant écarté transversalement du bras 17 et donc placé en dessous de lui. Les deux bras 17 et 20 ont même longueur afin que les deux paires de pinces correspondantes 4 soient placées à l'aplomb l'une de l'autre. Dans la troisième variante (figure 3) il est prévu également deux bras 17, 20, comme dans la deuxième variante mais ces bras sont de longueur inégale, le bras 17 ayant une longueur plus importante que le bras 20 afin de réaliser le décalage des paires de pinces corres­pondantes 4, en sens horizontal.In the first variant (Figure 1), the hanger 2 comprises a single arm 17 on which are mounted two pairs of pliers 4, one at the free end 19 of the arm 17 and the other on the arm 17 and in the vicinity of the vertical part 7. In the second variant (FIG. 2) the hanger 2 comprises a first arm 17 with a single pair of pliers 4 at its free end part 19 and a second arm 20 of the same general structure as the arm 17 also comprising a single pair of pliers 4, extending in parallel, while being spaced transversely from the arm 17 and therefore placed below it. The two arms 17 and 20 have the same length so that the two pairs of corresponding pliers 4 are placed perpendicular to each other. In the third variant (FIG. 3) two arms 17, 20 are also provided, as in the second variant, but these arms are of unequal length, the arm 17 having a greater length than the arm 20 in order to offset the pairs. of corresponding pliers 4, in horizontal direction.

Les deux paires de pinces 4 sont donc soit décalées l'une de l'autre en sens horizontal ou placées à l'aplomb l'une de l'autre ou encore décalées à la fois horizontalement et verticalement.The two pairs of pliers 4 are therefore either offset from one another in the horizontal direction or placed directly above one another or else offset both horizontally and vertically.

Dans le cas des variantes représentées sur les dessins, les pinces 4 sont dirigées dans le même sens. Toutefois, entre également dans le cadre de l'invention, le cas de pinces dirigées dans des sens opposés.In the case of the variants shown in the drawings, the clamps 4 are directed in the same direction. However, also falls within the scope of the invention, the case of pliers directed in opposite directions.

Dans tous les cas, le centre de gravité du véhicule 1 est placé entre les deux droites définissant la zone de sustentation du véhicule 1 et définies par les traces des câbles 3a, 3b. Préférentiellement, ce centre de gravité est situé à égale distance ou sensiblement à égale distance de ces deux traces.In all cases, the center of gravity of the vehicle 1 is placed between the two straight lines defining the lift zone of the vehicle 1 and defined by the traces of cables 3a, 3b. Preferably, this center of gravity is located at equal distance or substantially equal distance from these two traces.
