  • the invention further relates to a cable car with at least one cable car station and with at least one cable car vehicle which can be coupled and moved with a conveyor cable, wherein the cable car vehicle can be decoupled from the conveyor cable in the cable car station, a parking area for the cable car vehicle being provided in the cable car station and whereby the Cable car vehicle can be moved into a parking position in the parking area when decoupled from the conveyor cable.
  • the invention relates to a method for carrying out a parking process with a cable car vehicle of a cable car in a cable car station of the cable car, wherein the cable car vehicle is decoupled from a conveyor cable in the cable car station and is moved in the decoupled state into a parking area of the cable car station, the cable car vehicle being in the Parking area is moved into a parking position by means of a conveyor device, in that the conveyor device at least temporarily exerts a conveying force on a component of the cable car vehicle, a belt conveyor, preferably a toothed belt conveyor, being used as the conveyor device, wherein on a belt of the belt conveyor, preferably on a toothed belt of the toothed belt conveyor , at least one driving element is provided and the cable car vehicle is moved into the parking position by the driving element exerting the conveying force on the component of the cable car vehicle.
  • Cable cars are known in the prior art, in which the cable car vehicles can be uncoupled from the conveyor cable in a cable car station in order to be able to be moved through the cable car station in the decoupled state. Before leaving the cable car station, the cable car vehicles can be accelerated back to the speed of the conveyor cable and with be coupled to the conveyor rope. As a result, on the one hand, a high conveying capacity can be achieved due to the high conveying speed of the conveyor rope and, on the other hand, the speed of the cable car vehicles within the cable car station can be reduced, which makes it easier for passengers to get on and off or generally for loading and unloading the cable car vehicles.
  • a guide rail is provided within the cable car station, along which the cable car vehicles are guided through the cable car station in the decoupled state.
  • Rollers are usually arranged on the cable car vehicles, for example on the hanger, with which the cable car vehicles roll on the guide rail.
  • the cable car vehicles can be driven, for example, with a known tire conveyor, in which driven tires arranged along the guide rail in the cable car station interact with a friction lining of the cable car vehicles.
  • the friction lining can be arranged, for example, on the suspension of the cable car vehicle.

  • the parking areas have usually been located at least partially below the entrance/exit area of the cable car station or at a lower level. The movement of the cable car vehicles in the parking area takes place on or along one or more so-called gradient tracks.
  • the gradient track(s) are essentially designed in the same way as the guide rail of the cable car station, but have a specific, fixed gradient.
  • the movement of the cable car vehicles along the gradient track into the parking position is carried out solely by gravity due to the defined gradient, without any external drive.
  • the downhill track can, for example, be connected to a switch
  • the guide rail of the cable car station must be connected so that the cable car vehicles can be removed from the guide rail onto the downhill track for parking via the switch.

  • the system is prone to failure, because an incline on the downhill track and/or unevenness, foreign bodies, dirt, ice, etc. on the downhill track or on the cable car vehicles can lead to an undesirable stopping or blocking of the cable car vehicles.
  • a gradient that is too great can cause the cable car vehicles to collide with each other at too high a speed, which can lead to damage to the cable car vehicles.
  • the construction effort of the cable car station is relatively high due to the required level difference for the gradient track and the assembly of the gradient track is also relatively complex because, for the reasons mentioned above, the gradient must be set as precisely as possible.
