Definitions

  • the invention relates to a teleporter comprising a carrying-tractor cable with continuous movement between two stations, rollers for supporting the cable carried by fixed supports arranged at the entrance to the stations and / or along the line, cabins or seats attached to the cable in line to move between the two stations, each cabin or seat having a cable coupling clamp and a hanger articulated to the associated clamp, and a clamp stabilization device having an element secured to the fixed support and a conjugate element integral with the clamp, which cooperate to bring the clamp coupled to the cable into a predetermined position for passage of the fixed support.
  • the invention is described below in its application to the roll stabilization of a clamp at the entrance to a station of a detachable chairlift, but it is clear that it is applicable to a gondola and a teleporter with fixed attachments and stabilization of the clamp when passing a pylon and in one direction.
  • the seat and the clamp When passing a fixed support and more particularly in stations, the seat and the clamp must be positioned correctly to avoid collision with fixed parts of the installation and to facilitate the embarkation and / or disembarkation of passengers.
  • the position in line is on the other hand very variable and it depends on the deflection of the cable according to the load and other factors, such as the inclination of the seat, due to an uneven distribution of the load or the roll imposed by the wind or untimely movement of passengers.
  • To bring the clamp into the correct position there are generally, at the station entrance and at the front, running rails and support rollers, stabilization rails, which cooperate with the clamp, coupled to the cable or with another part of the seat, to gradually bring it into the correct position during its movement along the stabilization rails.
  • the present invention aims to allow the realization of a simple stabilization device, which avoids any brutal action on the clamp or on the seat.
  • the teleporter according to the invention is characterized in that the position of the stabilization element, carried by the fixed support, is adjustable in height and that this position is adjusted automatically according to the height position of the cable so as to facilitate stabilization of the clamp.
  • stabilization rail (s) on the clamp depends on the slope of the stabilization rail relative to the direction of movement of the clamp and this slope is determined by the length of the rail and by the maximum position deviation to compensate.
  • stabilization is generally achieved by extensions of the running rails, which diverge forward to form a flared entry, the opening of which is sufficient to intercept the clamp in all circumstances and bring it on the running rails.
  • the size of the flared entry must take account of the extreme deviations likely to occur, but such deviations are almost never achieved and in the majority of cases only the terminal part of the rail is active.
  • the height adjustment of the stabilization device can be carried out by any suitable means, in particular by a connection with a cable position detector.
  • This detector is advantageously a simple pair of rollers, which frame the cable without obstructing the passage of the clamp and which are mechanically connected to the stabilization device.
  • One of the ends of the stabilization rails is preferably articulated to the fixed part, while the opposite end is adjustable in height, so as to follow the movements of the cable.
  • the stabilization device can cooperate with the clamp and more particularly with the roller of the clamp, on the side opposite to the jaws, but it is conceivable to act on another part of the seat, in particular on the hanger, which presents the advantage of having leverage.
  • the stabilization device can be in several parts, one acting in one direction, for example to pivot the clamp upwards and the other for its pivoting downwards, the two parts being either mechanically integral, or actuated independently l one of the other. In some cases stabilization in one direction may be sufficient, which simplifies the installation.
  • a tractor carrying cable 10 of a chairlift passes over a train of support rollers 11, carried by the fixed frame 12, at the entrance to a station.
  • Seats 13 are coupled to the cable 10 by lines 14 and clips 15.
  • the installation described is of the disengageable type, in which the clip 15 is uncoupled from the cable 10 in the station for boarding or disembarking passengers at reduced or zero speed , but the invention is applicable to installations with fixed attachments and in general to any teleporter, in particular to cable cars.
  • the clamp 15, well known in itself, comprises a pair of jaws 16 biased in the cable clamping position 10 by a spring 17 and the opening of which is controlled by a lever 18 cooperating with a control rail (not shown).
  • the clamp 15 carries rollers 19,20 which roll in the station on running rails to support the clamp 15, disengaged from the cable 10.
  • the roller 19, adjacent to the cable 10 rolls on a running rail (not shown), while the running roller 20, spaced from the cable 10, cooperates with a pair of running rails 21, 22, which frame it to define its position in height.
  • the running rails 21, 22 are arranged so as to support the clamp 15 as soon as the first roller 11 is crossed on the entry side.
  • a lower stabilization rail 25 which extends this running rail 21 forwards, in this case upstream relative to the direction of travel.
  • cable 10 indicated by an arrow.
  • an upper stabilization rail 26 is articulated at the end 24 of the upper rail 22 to extend this rail 22 forwards beyond the first roller 11.
  • the two stabilization rails 25, 26 diverge and their ends 27.28, opposite the joints 23, 24, form a flared entry, framing the cable 10 or more exactly the horizontal plane containing the cable.
  • These latter ends 27, 28 are integral with a branch 29 of a frame 30 in inverted U, which overlaps the clamp 15 and whose opposite branch 31 carries two rollers 32 enclosing the cable 10 from above and from below.
  • These two rollers 32 are offset in the longitudinal direction of the cable 10 to facilitate the passage of the clamps 15 between the rollers 32.
  • the stabilization device operates as follows: In normal operation, shown in Figures 1 and 3, the clamp 15 is in the correct position at the entrance to the station and the roller 20 does not cooperate with the stabilization rails 25,26. When the deflection of the cable 10 increases, all the seats being for example occupied, the part of the cable 10 before the support rollers 11 lowers as shown in FIG. 2. This movement is transmitted to the stabilization rails 25,26 , which thus retain their position relative to the cable 10, shown in FIG. 3. The opening of the flared entry does not have to take account of such movements of the cable 10 and can therefore be reduced.
  • FIG. 4 illustrates the case of an unevenly loaded seat, the clamp 15 being pivoted downward relative to the correct position of FIG. 3.
  • the roller 20, in support of the lower stabilization rail 25, is gradually raised during displacement along this rail 25 and causes the clamp 15 to pivot clockwise to the correct position.
  • stabilization rail 25.26 is sufficient if correct recovery in one direction is necessary.
  • One or both stabilization rails 25, 26 can cooperate with another part of the clamp 15 or of the seat, in particular with the hanger 14 and these rails 25, 26 are not necessarily associated with running rails 21, 22 of a station. They can for example be carried by a pendulum of a support pylon to correctly position the clamp when the rollers pass.
  • the invention is of course in no way limited to the mode of implementation more particularly described with reference to the drawings and it extends to any variant remaining within the framework of equivalences, in particular that where the adjustment of the stabilization device would be controlled by a unit central, receiving a cable position signal or generating such a signal.
