Definitions

  • the invention relates to an armchair of a chairlift having at least one seat having a seat, with a protective bar which extends across the seat and is pivotable from an open position to a closed position, and at least one footrest.
  • the invention relates to a method for operating a chairlift, in which chairs with at least one seat having a seat are moved from one station to another station and in which a guard is pivoted in a station between an open position and a closed position.
  • Armchairs for chairlifts have at least one seat, often two, three or four but also up to eight or more, for example, ten, side by side seats, each seat being associated with a footrest on which the passengers may fasten their feet, if necessary with them Skis or a snowboard, can set up and support (eg AT 411 523 B . AT 411 046 B ).
  • the footrests are rigidly attached to the guard of the armchair via support rods, which extend from the guard in front of the seats down and.
  • the footrests themselves consist of laterally projecting away from the support rod rods or tubes, which are attached to the lower end of the support rods, and are brought by pivoting the guard in the entry or exit position.
  • a problem when pivoting the guard is that the support bar on which the footrest is arranged, a leg of a passenger can pinch when the passenger is not in its proper seating position. This problem is critical if the passenger wants to correct the seating position, since then there is a risk that he slipped off the seat. It may also be that he has to stay in an uncomfortable sitting position if he can not correct it.
  • the invention is therefore based on the object to provide a chair and a method of the type mentioned above, with which the above problems can be avoided as much as possible.
  • the footrest according to the invention is adjusted by an automatic positioning mechanism and below the seat between a driving position and an entry or exit position, there is no longer any danger that a leg of a passenger is trapped, but the passenger still does not dispense with a footrest and Also, he does not have to worry about closing the safety bar and positioning the footrest, so he can focus on getting in and out.
  • the closing and opening of the safety bar and the positioning and removal of the footrest can be separated in time when entering and exiting. This means that when boarding first, the guard closed and later the footrest can be positioned and when getting off the footrest can still be moved with the guard closed.
  • the footrest is movable with a vertically upward movement component before reaching the driving position.
  • the footrest starting from the entry or exit position with a vertically downward movement component, which merges to the travel position in a vertically upward movement component, movable.
  • the footrest approaches the riding position from the underside of a ski, snowboard, or the like, when positioned in the riding position, it is prevented that the footrest can press on the top of a sports equipment.
  • a positioning mechanism are arranged on the chair and a trigger in the region of a chair lift station.
  • the positioning mechanism may in particular be associated with a guide roller which is raised or lowered when the chair in the region of a station passes through an area with a guide device associated with the guide roller.
  • the guide device can be, for example, a guide rail as a trigger and drive for the positioning device.
  • the triggering of the positioning device can also be done wirelessly.
  • a sensor may be provided as a trigger.
  • the positioning mechanism may be connected to a mechanism for opening and closing the guard and / or for pivoting the seat.
  • the positioning mechanism may comprise at least one motor, in particular an electric motor.
  • the trigger in the area of a station can also be an electrical signal generator for the engine. If an electric motor is used, it can be powered by a preferably rechargeable battery which is charged outside the operating time of the chairlift and / or when passing through the chair by a station.
  • the battery may be connected directly to a pantograph located on the sprag or hanger of each chair.
  • a pantograph located on the sprag or hanger of each chair.
  • the current collector can have both roller contacts and sliding contacts, which interact with a correspondingly configured contact device in the station.
  • This contact device is preferably designed as a busbar, which is arranged along the conveying cable or traction cable of the cable car system.
  • the energy transfer can also be made contactless in the form of an inductive coupling.
  • an electric alternating field is built up by a corresponding device along the Switzerlandsseils that is received by a corresponding device of the chair and used to charge the battery.
  • this can exert on the footrest, for example by a rope, a tensile force and / or for example by a linkage a compressive force.
  • ropes or linkages for exerting tensile force on the footrest need not necessarily be provided.
  • a spring accumulator when moving the footrest from the driving position to the entry and exit position can be stretched and the footrest can be moved later from the spring storage of the entry or exit position in the driving position.
  • a spring memory for example, a mechanical spring or a pressure medium cylinder can be used, which is stretched when retracting the chair in the station, while the footrest is moved from the driving position to the entry or exit position. The stored energy can then be used to move the footrest from the entry or exit position to the position. On its own, this can alternatively be done in reverse by tensioning the spring accumulator out of the station when the armchair is extended and using the stored energy to move the footrest from the driving position to the entry or exit position.
  • the mechanism can be coupled, for example, to a guide rail in or in front of the station, as is known per se, for example, from the automatic opening and closing of the protective stirrup or protective hoods of elevators.
  • a lock of the spring accumulator can be done for example mechanically or wirelessly or electrically.
  • the footrest may in particular be made for the footrest to be arranged in the travel position in the region below the front edge of the seat surface and in the entry or exit position in the region of the rear edge of the seat surface.
  • the footrest can be arranged in the entry and exit position in the area below the seat and / or behind the backrest.
  • the footrest In driving position, i. while passengers put their feet, possibly with attached skis or a snowboard, on the footrest and support, the footrest can be held by at least one tie rod in position.
  • the positioning mechanism remains stable enough in position, no additional struts need to be provided.
  • the footrest may be a crossbar that extends either at least partially across the width of a seat or substantially the entire width of the chair.
  • differently shaped footrests for example, plate-shaped footrests, may also be used.
  • a footrest 6 When a passenger sits in the first station 1 on a seat 5 of a chair 3, a footrest 6 is in its entry position on the back of the chair 3 ( Fig. 1a as well as area 1 a in Fig. 1 ). During or shortly after the exit from the first station 1, the footrest 6 is then pivoted under the seat 5 ( Fig. 1b as well as area 1 b in Fig. 1 ) until they are in Fig. 1 c shown driving position in which a passenger supports his feet or sports equipment on her occupies. The footrest 6 then remains in this driving position until the chair 3 reaches the entrance area of the second station 2. In the entrance area of the second station 2, the footrest 6 is then pivoted back under the seat 5 (FIG. Fig.
  • the chair 3 has four seats 5 each having a seat surface and a backrest 7, wherein the seat surface has a rear edge 8 associated with the backrest 7 and a front edge 9 lying opposite the rear edge 8.
  • the chair 3 has a protective bar 10 which extends transversely across the seats 5 and is pivotable from an open position to a closed position.

  • struts 16 which additionally put the footrest 6 in their driving position, arranged articulated.
  • the struts 16 may also be arranged on the pivotable rods 14 in the context of the invention. However, it is preferred that the struts 16 are arranged as close as possible to the footrest 6, since there the loads from the passengers supported on the footrest 6 can best be absorbed.
  • the footrest 6 and the side parts 6a, 6b form a U-shaped half-frame.
  • the pivotable rods 14 may also be parts of a U-shaped frame with the two parallel rods and a crossbar.
  • the footrest 6 can be arranged as shown.
  • Pro seat 5 can then be provided, for example, a footrest, with the emanating from a crossbar of the U-shaped, pivotal frame 14 rod extends in the driving position and seen in the direction of travel centrally below the seat 5.
  • the arranged thereon footrest in the form of the T-shaped crossbar extends a maximum of the length of the front edge 9 of the seat 5. It can also be provided for every two seats a footrest, with the crossbar of the U-shaped, pivotable frame 14th outgoing rod in driving position and seen in the direction of travel between two seats 5 extends. The footrest disposed thereon then extends, for example, from the center of the one adjacent seat 5 to the middle of the other adjacent seat 5.
  • Fig. 4 shows one to the in the Fig. 1 b and 1d positions shown analog position.
  • the footrest 6 In the area of this position, the footrest 6 is in its lowest position and subsequently moves obliquely forwards and upwards, so that it approaches the skis or snowboards of the passengers from behind and below.
  • the movement of the footrest 6 thus has a vertically upwardly directed and a horizontally forwardly directed component of movement, before they reach the in Fig. 7 achieved driving position shown.
  • Fig. 6 a position is shown in which the footrest 6 is already arranged almost in the driving position. Serving as a footrest 6 crossbar is now located below the front edge 9 of the seat. In this position, the struts 16 have been pivoted from their initial position via a hinge 19 such that the free end 20 of the tension strut 16 of the front edge 9 of the seat approximates. The pivoting of the struts is effected by the electric motors 19.
  • Fig. 7 is the final driving position of the footrest 6 analogous to Fig. 1c shown.
  • serving as a footrest 6 crossbar is disposed below the front edge 9 of the seat.
  • the struts 16 are arranged at an angle of approximately 90 ° to the side parts 6a, 6b.
  • the struts 16 are in their deployed position, in which their free ends 20 are as in FIG Fig. 8 Set shown in the area of the front edge 9 of the seat to hold the footrest 6.
  • the seat 3 remains during the entire journey from the first station 1 to the inlet area of the second station 2.
  • the pivoting of the footrest 6 from the driving position to the exit position is carried out automatically by the positioning mechanism 17 and analogous to the previous embodiments in the reverse manner.
