Definitions

  • the subject invention relates to a device for coupling a driving device, e.g. a cabin or an armchair, to the conveyor or traction cable of a cable car system, consisting of a clamping body provided with rollers, which carries a rigidly fastened first clamping jaw and a second clamping jaw which can be pivoted with respect to the first clamping jaw, the second clamping jaw being at one end of one Two-armed clamping lever is located, at the other end of which a control element interacting with control rails, in particular a control roller, is provided, by means of which the clamping lever can be pivoted relative to the clamping body against the action of at least one torsion spring, as a result of which the second clamping jaw comes into the open position.
  • a driving device e.g. a cabin or an armchair
  • traction cable of a cable car system consisting of a clamping body provided with rollers, which carries a rigidly fastened first clamping jaw and a second clamping jaw which can be pivoted with respect
  • a rope clamp which contains a torsion bar as a spring, which is coupled to one of the clamping jaws via a toothed gear.
  • Known cable clamps of this type which are designed with torsion springs or with helical compression springs, are disadvantageous in that they do not fully meet the technical requirements. This is because changes in the diameter of the rope are caused by wear of the rope or by an expansion of the rope, in which case there is a requirement that the movable clamping jaw is pivoted towards the rigid clamping jaw. However, this has the consequence that the clamping force decreases considerably as a result, as a result of which the required pulling force of the clamp is no longer guaranteed.
  • the object of the invention is therefore to provide a device for coupling a driving device to the conveyor or traction cable of a cable car system, in which the disadvantage is avoided that a substantial reduction in the clamping force is caused when the two clamping jaws approach each other.
  • This is achieved according to the invention in that between the clamping lever and the Torsion spring a toggle joint is provided. This ensures that when pivoting the movable jaw in the sense of a closing movement due to reductions in the diameter of the rope due to wear or strain, regardless of this, approximately the same clamping force is applied.
  • the structural design of this device is preferably selected such that the toggle joint can be adjusted to an over-center position, as a result of which the clamp remains in the open position after it has been opened.
  • a first lever of the toggle joint is attached to the free end of the at least one torsion spring, to which a second lever mounted on the clamping lever is articulated.
  • the articulation point of the two levers of the toggle joint is preferably located between the pivot bearing of the clamping lever and the bearing of the second lever of the toggle lever on the clamping lever, with the articulation point between the torsion spring and the connecting line of the pivot bearing of the clamping lever and the bearing in the closed position of the two clamping jaws of the second lever of the toggle joint on the clamping lever, whereas in the open position of the pivotable clamping jaw the articulation point is beyond this connecting line.
  • the articulation point of the two levers of the toggle joint is located approximately in the middle between the pivot bearing of the clamping lever and the bearing of the second lever of the toggle joint on the clamping lever.
  • the torsion spring is designed as a torsion bar protruding from the clamping body on both sides, on the two free ends of which sleeves are fastened, to which two lever arms, which form the first lever of the toggle joint, are fastened.
  • the two sleeves can each have one end with the free ends of the torsion bar can be rigidly connected and the other ends thereof, from which the first levers of the toggle joint protrude, can be mounted on a bush fastened in the clamping body.
  • the clamping lever is preferably also designed with a clamping force test device.
  • the clamping force is continuously checked and, if it drops below a predetermined value, the operation of the cable car system is interrupted, whereupon the clamping spring in question can be checked or replaced by a fully functional clamping spring.
  • a device contains a clamping body 1, to which a rod 11 is attached, which carries a cabin or an armchair.
  • the clamp body 1 are also Rollers 12 and 13 are mounted, by means of which the clamping body 1 is guided along rails 12a and 13a in the stations of the cable car system. Furthermore, the clamping body 1 is formed with a clamping jaw 15 rigidly attached to this.
  • the clamping device 2 consists of a torsion spring 3 which is also fastened to the clamping body 1 and to which a first lever 21 is fastened, to the free end of which a second lever 22 is articulated.
  • the other end of the second lever 22 is mounted on a clamping lever 23, which in turn is mounted on the rigid jaw 15 in a bearing 23a.
  • the two levers 21 and 22 form an active toggle joint between the torsion spring 3 and the clamping lever 23.
  • the left end of the clamping lever 23 in the drawing is designed as a movable clamping jaw 25, which is brought into the closed position of the clamp by pivoting the clamping lever 23 by means of the torsion spring 3, as a result of which the cable 5 is enclosed by the two clamping jaws 15 and 25.
  • the other end of the clamping lever 23 is formed with a control roller 24 which runs in the stations of the cable car system on control rails 24a, whereby the clamping lever 23 is pivoted in such a way that the clamping jaw 25 comes into the open position against the action of the torsion spring 3.
  • the articulation point 21a of the two levers 21 and 22 of the toggle joint is located between the torsion spring 3 and the line connecting the bearing 23a of the clamping lever 23 on the rigid clamping jaw 15 and the bearing 22a of the second lever 22 on the clamping lever 23.
  • the first lever 21 of the toggle joint is loaded by the torsion spring 3 to pivot in the direction of arrow A, whereby the clamping lever 23 is loaded in the direction of arrow B. This way the jaw 25 in the closed position or it is held in this.
  • the closing force required for this is applied by the torsion spring 3.
  • the control roller 24 also runs onto a control rail 24a, as a result of which the clamping lever 23 counteracts the action of the torsion spring 3 against the direction of the arrow B is pivoted. As a result, the jaw 25 reaches its open position. Due to the pivoting of the clamping lever 23, the toggle joint 21 and 22 also reaches an over-center position, in which the connecting line between the bearings 22a and 23a is between the torsion spring 3 and the articulation point 21a, as a result of which the clamping jaw 25 is held in the open position.
  • the control roller 24 runs along a control rail 24b.
  • FIG. 2 also shows one of the acceleration or deceleration wheels 6 located in the stations, which come to rest on a friction plate 16 provided on the clamping body 1.
  • clamping lever 23 and the pivotable jaw 25 are each fork-shaped, and that the clamping body 1 is formed with a pair of impellers 13.
  • the clamping body 1 is formed with an opening 17 in which four torsion bars 31 projecting to both sides of the clamping body 1 are fastened.
  • the two free ends of the torsion bars 31 pass through an opening 33 provided at the ends of two sleeves 32, whereby these sleeves 32 are coupled with the free ends of the torsion bars 31 for rotation.
  • the ends of the sleeves 32 facing the clamping body 1 are mounted on bushings 35 which are inserted into bores 18 of the clamping body 1.
  • the two arms of the first lever 21 of the toggle joint connect to the inner ends of the sleeves 32. Due to a torsion of the torsion bars 31, the required clamping force is generated in the closed position of the clamping jaw 25.
  • the mutual arrangement of the two levers 21 and 22 of the toggle joint and the clamping lever 23 ensures that the clamping force applied by the torsion spring 3 in the closed position of the jaw 25 is largely independent of its position relative to the fixed jaw 15, so that the clamping force also a reduction in the diameter of the rope 5 remains approximately constant. This avoids that when the diameter of the rope 5 is reduced as a result of wear or as a result of an expansion thereof, a reduction in the clamping force is caused, as a result of which the clamping device would no longer meet the technical requirements.
  • FIGS. 7 and 8 also shows a clamping device according to the invention, which is designed with a device 7 for checking the clamping force.
  • the clamping lever 23 is designed with a test spring 71 which acts against the torsion spring 3. If the compressive force of the torsion spring 3 drops below a predetermined value, the test spring 71 comes into effect, whereby a control lever 72 is pivoted out.
  • Switches are provided which are assigned to the pivoted-out test lever 72. As soon as the pivoted test lever 72 runs onto one of the switches, the cable car system is switched off, whereupon the torsion spring in question can be checked or replaced by a fully functional torsion spring.
