Rolling on the support ropes 41, 41, and a suspension pin 36 at the upper end of the traveling machine 31 at the center of the traveling machine 31. The vehicle is pivotally attached to the lower end, and includes a suspension 39 on which a passenger car 40 is suspended and a passenger car 40 on which a passenger rides.
Here, according to FIG. 8, the interval between the two support lines 41 is usually set to 60 cm to 80 cm, and is within the width of the passenger car 40 in plan view. For this reason, the height of the suspension machine 39 is determined according to the gradient of the cableway in order to prevent the passenger car 40 from interfering with the supports 41, 41 when the transporter 30 travels on the supports 41, 41. . That is, if the slope of the cableway is gentle, the suspension machine 3
9 becomes lower, and conversely, when the gradient becomes steeper, the suspension 39 becomes higher. In this way, the height of the suspension machine 39 is determined so that the struts 41, 41 and the passenger car 40 do not interfere during traveling, but the possibility that the passenger car 40 and the struts 41, 41 interfere at all can be avoided. It wasn't.

[0003]

The problem to be solved by the present invention is that while traveling on the cableway described above, even if the emergency transporter 30 swings largely in the traveling direction due to emergency braking or the like, the passenger car 40 and the support cable 4 of the transporter 30 will move.
It is an object of the present invention to provide a ropeway carrier which does not interfere with the ropes 1 and 41 and also makes the height of the suspension machine 39 as low as possible.
