[Problems to be Solved by the Invention] As described above, the conventionally known ski lift is a facility provided for the purpose of adapting to a ski resort in a mountain area. Therefore, it is desirable to reduce the installation area of cableway equipment as much as possible in order to effectively use the space in the recently planned urban indoor ski facility where the installation area of cableway equipment can be set relatively freely. In order to support the ropes in response to the above-mentioned request, the support of the rope receiving device is extended from the beam of the building of the indoor ski facility instead of the pillar to support the rope receiving device and the pillar in the cableway line. By removing the above, and by attaching the above-mentioned line receiving device and the down line side receiving device at different heights, it is possible to prevent the carriers moving oppositely in the cableway line from contacting each other. A cableway facility for an indoor ski facility, which is designed to narrow the width of passage of a carrier in the cableway line of the facility, is proposed by the patent application “Narrow-width circulating type cableway for indoor ski facility” of the same date. However, such an automatic circulation cableway for indoor ski facilities could not be realized by using the terminal structure of conventional cableway equipment as it is.

The present invention has been made in view of the above-mentioned circumstances, and narrows the passage width of the carrier by separating the space between the carriers moving on the up line side and the down line side in the horizontal direction and the vertical direction, thereby making the indoor ski facility The purpose of the present invention is to provide a terminal for an automatic circulation cableway for indoor ski facilities, which can effectively utilize the space in the area.
