Description

Die gegenständliche Erfindung betrifft eine Seilbahnanlage mit mindestens einem zwischen einer Talstation und einer Bergstation bewegbaren Trag- und Förderseil, welches in den Stationen über Umlenkscheiben geführt ist und mit an das Trag- und Förderseil ankuppelbaren Fahrbetriebsmitteln, welche durch Kabinen und durch Sessel gebildet sind, wobei die Fahrbetriebsmittel in den Stationen vom Förderseil abkuppelbar, längs Führungsschienen durch in den Stationen befindliche Ein- und Ausstiegsbereiche hindurch bewegbar und in der Folge an das Förderseil ankuppelbar sind.The subject invention relates to a cable car system with at least a movable between a valley station and a mountain station support and Conveyor rope, which is guided in the stations via deflecting discs and with can be coupled to the support and hoisting rope driving resources, which by Cabins and are formed by armchairs, with the driving equipment in the Stations can be uncoupled from the rope, along guide rails through in the Stations located entry and exit areas movable through and in the consequence of the hoisting rope can be coupled.

Es ist bekannt, Seilbahnanlagen entweder mit Sesseln oder mit Kabinen auszustatten. Dabei dienen die Sessel in der Regel dazu, Skifahrer von der Talstation in Bergstation zu befördern, wogegen die Kabinen zur Beförderung von Snowboardfahrern, Wanderern und anderen Personen, welche keine Skier angeschnallt haben, von der Talstation in die Bergstation bzw. von der Bergstation in die Talstation dienen.It is known to equip cable cars either with armchairs or with cabins. The armchairs are usually used by skiers from the valley station in the mountain station, whereas the cabins are used to carry Snowboarders, hikers and other people who do not have skis belted, from the valley station in the mountain station or from the mountain station serve in the valley station.

Der Zugang der Skifahrer zur Einstiegsstelle erfolgt in der Regel durch eine Zutrittsschranke hindurch, welche dann geöffnet wird, sobald ein Sessel durch die Talstation hindurch bewegt wird, wobei die Skifahrer über eine geringfügig geneigte Rampe in den Einstiegsbereich einfahren und sich der betreffende Sessel an die Skifahrer von hinten annähert, wodurch diese in der Folge auf die Sessel aufsitzen können.The access of skiers to the entry point is usually by a Entry barrier through, which is then opened as soon as a chair through the valley station is moved through, with the skiers passing a little retracting inclined ramp in the entry area and the concerned Armchair approaches to the skier from behind, causing them to rise in the sequence the chairs can sit up.

Der Zugang von Benützern der Seilbahnanlage ohne Skier erfolgt in der Regel über eine Plattform, längs welcher die Kabinen bewegt werden, wobei die auf der Plattform wartenden Passagiere in die bewegten Kabinen einsteigen können.
Es ist weiters auch vorgeschlagen worden, Seilbahnanlagen sowohl mit Sesseln als auch mit Kabinen auszustatten, wobei an das Trag- und Förderseil abwechseln Sessel und Kabinen angekuppelt sind. Dabei sind die Anzahlen der Sessel einerseits und der Kabinen andererseits von den Anzahlen der Skifahrer bzw. der anderen Passagiere abhängig. Bei einer derartigen Seilbahnanlage besteht jedoch die Schwierigkeit, daß durch die unterschiedlichen Arten der Fortbewegung der Skifahrer einerseits und der Nicht-Skifahrer andererseits diese einander behindern bzw. nur den Erfordernissen der einen Art der Benützer entsprochen werden kann. The access of users of the cableway system without skis is usually via a platform along which the cabins are moved, with the waiting on the platform passengers can get into the moving cabins.
It has also been proposed to equip cable cars both with armchairs and with cabins, with the support and hoisting rope alternately armchairs and cabins are coupled. The numbers of the armchair on the one hand and the cabins on the other hand depend on the numbers of skiers or other passengers. In such a cable car system, however, there is the difficulty that by the different types of locomotion of skiers on the one hand and the non-skiers on the other hand, these hinder each other or can be met only the needs of a kind of user.

Der gegenständlichen Erfindung liegt somit die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine Seilbahnanlage zu schaffen, durch welche sowohl Skifahrer als auch solche Personen, welche keine Skier angeschnallt haben, befördert werden können, ohne daß beim Einsteigen in die Fahrbetriebsmittel und beim Aussteigen aus den Fahrbetriebsmitteln aufgrund der unterschiedlichen Arten der Fortbewegung dieser beiden Gruppen Schwierigkeiten bedingt werden. Dies wird erfindungsgemäß dadurch erzielt, daß die in den Stationen vorgesehenen Ein- und Ausstiegsbereiche in jeweils zwei voneinander getrennte, in Bewegungsrichtung aufeinanderfolgende Sektoren unterteilt sind, wobei ein erster Sektor für die Benützer der Kabinen und ein zweiter Sektor für die Benützer der Sessel bestimmt ist.The objective invention is therefore the object of a cable car system through which both skiers and such persons, which have no skis strapped, can be carried without that when entering the driving equipment and when getting out of the Driving equipment due to the different types of locomotion These two groups are subject to difficulties. This is according to the invention achieved in that the envisaged in the stations entry and exit areas in each case two separate, in the direction of movement successive sectors are divided, with a first sector for the Users of the cabins and a second sector intended for the users of the armchairs is.

Vorzugsweise befindet sich in der Talstation der erste Sektor des Ein- und Ausstiegsbereiches in Bewegungsrichtung der Fahrbetriebsmittel vor dem zweiten Sektor. Nach weiteren bevorzugten Merkmalen befindet sich in der Bergstation der zweite Sektor des Ausstiegsbereiches für die Skifahrer in Bewegungsrichtung der Fahrbetriebsmittel vor dem ersten Sektor des Ausstiegsund Einstiegsbereiches für die Nicht-Skifahrer. Zudem sind vorzugsweise die Sektoren der Einstiegsbereiche über jeweils zugeordnete Zutrittsshranken zugänglich. Weiters kann das Öffnen der Zutrittsschranken in die beiden Sektoren in Abhängigkeit von der Art des sich jeweils in den betreffenden Sektor hineinbewegenden Fahrbetriebsmittels steuerbar sein. Insbesondere kann die Zutrittsschranke für den in der Talstation befindlichen zweiten Sektor in an sich bekannter Weise in Abhängigkeit von der Bewegung der Sessel steuerbar sein.Preferably located in the valley station, the first sector of the input and Exit area in the direction of movement of the driving equipment before the second sector. According to further preferred features is located in the Mountain station the second sector of the exit area for the skiers in the direction of movement the means of transport before the first sector of the exit and Entry area for non-skiers. In addition, preferably the Sectors of the entry areas can be accessed via assigned access chapters. Furthermore, the opening of the entry barriers in the two sectors depending on the nature of each in the sector concerned be inbewegenden driving resources controllable. In particular, the Entry barrier for the second sector in the valley station known way depending on the movement of the chair controllable be.

Vorzugsweise sind weiters in der Talstation bzw. in der Bergstation Einrichtungen vorgesehen, durch welche das Öffnen und das Schließen der Türen der Kabinen in den ersten Sektoren der Ein- und Ausstiegsbereiche und das Öffnen und Schließen von Abdeckhauben der Sessel bewirkbar sind.Preferably further facilities are in the valley station or in the mountain station provided by which the opening and closing of the doors of Cabins in the first sectors of the entry and exit areas and the opening Closing and covers of the chair are effected.

the valley station of the cable car system according to FIG. 1, in front view; and
Fig.2
the top station of a cable car system according to the invention, in a schematic representation and in plan view.

In der in Fig.1 dargestellten Talstation der Seilbahnanlage befinden sich ein erster Sektor 1 des Ausstiegs- und Einstiegsbereiches für solche Benützer, welche keine Skier angeschnallt haben, und ein zweiter Sektor des Einstiegsbereiches für Skifahrer. Das Trag- und Förderseil 3 der Seilbahnanlage ist in der Talstation über eine Umlenktrommel 30 geführt. An das Trag- und Förderseil 3 sind in beliebiger Aufeinanderfolge einerseits Kabinen 31, welche für die Benützung durch solche Personen, welche keine Skier angeschnallt haben, und andererseits Sessel 32, welche für die Benützung durch Skifahrer vorgesehen sind, angekuppelt.In the valley station of the cable car system shown in Figure 1 are located first sector 1 of the exit and entry area for such users, which no skis strapped on, and a second sector of the boarding area for skiers. The carrying and conveying cable 3 of the cable car system is in the valley station over a tail pulley 30 out. To the carrying and conveying rope 3 are in any sequence on the one hand cabins 31, which for the Use by persons who have not worn skis, and on the other hand armchair 32, which is intended for use by skiers are coupled.

Die in die Talstation einfahrenden Kabinen 31 bzw. Sessel 32 werden, nachdem sie vom Trag- und Förderseil 3 abgekuppelt worden sind, längs einer Führungsschiene 4 mit einer gegenüber der Geschwindigkeit des Trag- und Förderseiles 3 verminderten Geschwindigkeit von etwa 0,25 m/sec bewegt, wobei sie von Passagieren bestiegen bzw. verlassen werden können.The entering into the valley station cabins 31 and armchair 32 are, after they have been disconnected from the support and hoist rope 3, along a guide rail 4 with respect to the speed of the support and hoisting rope 3 reduced speed of about 0.25 m / sec moves, wherein they can be boarded or left by passengers.

Hierfür ist in Bewegungsrichtung des Trag- und Förderseiles 3 der erste Sektor 1 des Ausstiegs- und Einstiegsbereiches vorgesehen, welcher durch eine über einen Zugang 11 betretbare Plattform 10 gebildet ist, auf welcher die Nicht-Skifahrer auf die in die Talstation einfahrende Kabine 31 warten. Den Kabinen 31 ist in der Einfahrt in die Talstation eine erste Einrichtung 41 zugeordnet, durch welche deren Türen geöffnet werden. In der Kabine 31 befindliche Passagieren gelangen auf die Plattform 10 und können diese über einen Abgang 12 verlassen. In der Folge können auf der Plattform 10 wartende Passagiere die Kabine 31 besteigen. Am Ende der Plattform 10 ist eine zweite Einrichtung 42 vorgesehen, durch welche die Türen der Kabine 31 geschlossen werden. Nachdem die Kabine 31 längs der Führungsschiene 4 durch die Talstation hindurchbewegt worden ist, wird sie an das Trag- und Förderseil 3 wieder angekuppelt. For this purpose, in the direction of movement of the supporting and conveying cable 3, the first sector 1 of the exit and entry area provided, which by a formed via an access 11 enterable platform 10, on which the Non-skiers wait for the cabin 31 entering the valley station. The Cabins 31 is associated with a first device 41 in the entrance to the valley station, through which their doors are opened. Located in the cabin 31 Passengers get on the platform 10 and can this over a Exit 12. As a result, 10 passengers waiting on the platform can board the cabin 31. At the end of the platform 10 is a second device 42, through which the doors of the cab 31 are closed become. After the cabin 31 along the guide rail 4 through the valley station has been moved through, it is to the support and hoisting rope. 3 hitched again.

In analoger Weise werden auch die in die Talstation einfahrenden Sessel 32 vom Trag- und Förderseil 3 abgekuppelt und längs der Führungsschiene 4 durch die Talstation hindurchbewegt. Im Bereich der Einfahrt in die Talstation ist eine dritte Einrichtung 43 vorgesehen, durch welche die Abdeckhauben der Sessel 32 in ihre Offenstellung gebracht werden. Die Sessel 32 werden durch den ersten Sektor 1 des Einstiegsbereiches hindurchbewegt und werden zum zweiten Sektor 2 hin bewegt. Die Skifahrer gelangen über eine Zufahrt 21 und durch eine von der Bewegung der Sessel 32 gesteuerte Zugangsschranke 22 hindurch in den zweiten Sektor 2, in welchem sich die Sessel 32 an die Skifahrer von hinten annähern, worauf diese auf die Sessel 32 aufsitzen können. Im Ausfahrtsbereich ist eine vierte Einrichtung 44 vorgesehen, durch welche die Abdeckhauben der Sessel 32 dann automatisch in ihre Schließlage gebracht werden, soferne die Sessel 32 nicht besetzt sind. In der Folge werden die Sessel 32 wiederum an das Trag- und Förderseil 3 angekuppelt, wodurch sie zur Bergstation gefördert werden. Im Bereich der Bahn der Fahrbetriebsmittel befindet sich zudem ein erster Sensor 51, durch welchen bei der Vorbeifahrt eines Sessels 32 die Zutrittsschranke 22 geöffnet wird und ein zweiter Sensor 52, durch welchen geprüft wird, daß sich die Türen der Kabinen 31 in ihrer Schließlage befinden.In an analogous way, the retracting into the valley station chair 32 uncoupled from the support and hoisting rope 3 and along the guide rail. 4 moved through the valley station. In the area of the entrance to the valley station a third means 43 is provided, through which the covers of the Armchair 32 are brought into their open position. The armchairs 32 are going through the first sector 1 of the boarding area moved through and become the second sector 2 moves. The skiers arrive via a driveway 21 and by an access barrier 22 controlled by the movement of the chair 32 through in the second sector 2, in which the armchair 32 to the skier approach from behind, whereupon they can sit on the chair 32. in the Exit area is a fourth means 44 provided by which the Covers the armchair 32 then automatically brought into its closed position be, if the armchairs 32 are not occupied. As a result, the armchairs become 32 in turn coupled to the support and hoisting rope 3, whereby they to Be funded mountain station. In the area of the railway of the driving resources There is also a first sensor 51, through which when passing a chair 32, the access barrier 22 is opened and a second sensor 52, by which it is checked that the doors of the cabins 31 in their Closing position are.

Da die Kabinen 31 und die Sessel 32 durch den ersten Sektor 1 mit einer Geschwindigkeit von etwa 0.25m/sec hindurchbewegt werden, können die Kabinen 31 von den auf der Plattform 10 wartenden Passagieren bestiegen werden.Since the cabins 31 and the armchairs 32 pass through the first sector 1 at a speed can be moved through by about 0.25m / sec, the cabins 31 are boarded by the waiting on the platform 10 passengers.

Wie dies zudem in Fig.1a angedeutet ist, sind die im Bereich der Talstation vorgesehen Förderräder 45 mit Übersetzungen 46 ausgebildet, durch welche die Geschwindigkeit der Kabinen 31 und der Sessel 32, nachdem diese den ersten Sektor 1 des Einstiegsbereiches verlassen haben, auf etwa 1m/sec erhöht wird. Demnach werden die Sessel 32 im zweiten Sektor 2 an die Skifahrer mit dieser Geschwindigkeit heranbewegt. Durch die Erhöhung der Fördergeschwindigkeit wird der Abstand der einzelnen Fahrbetriebsmittel 32 und 31 voneinander vergrößert.As this is also indicated in Fig.1a, which are in the valley station provided conveying wheels 45 formed with translations 46, through which the speed of the cabins 31 and the armchair 32, after having the first sector 1 of the boarding area, increased to about 1m / sec becomes. Accordingly, the armchair 32 in the second sector 2 to the skier moved up at this speed. By increasing the conveying speed becomes the distance of the individual driving resources 32 and 31 enlarged from each other.

Wie dies aus Fig.2 ersichtlich ist, liegt in der Bergstation eine der Talstation weitgehend übereinstimmende konstruktive Gestaltung vor. Auch in der Bergstation ist das Trag- und Förderseil 3 über eine Umlenkscheibe 30a geführt, werden die Kabinen 31 und Sessel 32 nach ihrer Abkupplung vom Trag- und Förderseil 3 längs einer Führungsschiene 4a durch die Bergstation hindurch bewegt und sind gleichfalls Einrichtungen 41a, 42a, 43a, 44a zum Öffnen und Schließen der Türen der Kabinen 31 bzw. von Abdeckhauben der Schließbügel 32 vorgesehen.As can be seen from Figure 2, located in the mountain station one of the valley station largely consistent constructive design before. Also in the mountain station the carrying and conveying cable 3 is guided over a deflection pulley 30a, be the cabins 31 and armchair 32 after its uncoupling of the support and Conveyor rope 3 along a guide rail 4a through the top station are moved and are also means 41 a, 42 a, 43 a, 44 a for opening and Closing the doors of the cabins 31 or of the hoods of the striker 32 provided.

Unterschiedlich zur Talstation ist jedoch die Aufeinanderfolge der Sektoren 2a für den Abstieg der Skifahrer von den Sesseln 32 und den Ausstieg bzw. den nachfolgenden Einstieg der Nicht-Skifahrer aus den bzw. in die Kabinen 31 in Bewegungsrichtung der Kabinen 31 und der Sessel 32 so angeordnet, daß sich der Sektor 1a für die Nicht-Skifahrer in Bewegungsrichtung des Trag- und Förderseiles 3 hinter dem Sektor 2a für den Abstieg der Skifahrer befindet.Different from the valley station, however, is the succession of sectors 2a for the descent of the skiers from the armchairs 32 and the exit or the subsequent entry of non-skiers from or into the cabins 31 in Direction of movement of the cabins 31 and the armchair 32 arranged so that the sector 1a for non-skiers in the direction of movement of the support and Rope 3 is located behind the sector 2a for the descent of the skier.

Da es jedoch nur maßgeblich ist, daß die Sektoren 1 bzw. 1a und 2 bzw. 2a der Einstiegsbereiche bzw. der Ausstiegsbereiche für die Nicht-Skifahrer und für die Skifahrer in Bewegungsrichtung der Kabinen 31 und der Sessel 32 aufeinanderfolgend angeordnet sind, um zu gewährleisten, daß die beiden Gruppen der Passagiere, welche sich in unterschiedlicher Weise fortbewegen, einander nicht behindern, besteht diesbezüglich keine zwingende Beschränkung.However, since it is only relevant that Sectors 1 or 1a and 2 or 2a of the Entry areas or exit areas for non-skiers and for the skiers in the direction of movement of the cabins 31 and the chair 32 in succession are arranged to ensure that the two groups of the passengers, who move in different ways, each other do not hinder, there is no mandatory restriction in this regard.
