Description

  The present invention relates to a rope pulling type transportation facility that pulls and transports a plurality of vehicles simultaneously with a rope.

  Equipment, such as cable cars and inclines, that pulls vehicles with ropes and transports people and goods can be operated even on relatively steep slopes. Many are used. As such a rope pulling type transportation facility, a facility configured as follows is known. Two rails are laid in parallel between the foot of the foothill and the summit stop, and the rope is extended along this rail. A vehicle is connected to one end of the rope, a middle portion of the rope is wrapped around a pulley provided at the summit stop, and a counterweight is connected to the other end. And a rope is moved by driving the said pulley, and it operates by moving a vehicle between both stops in what is called a fishing bottle type (for example, refer patent document 1).

Such counterweight type cable-drawing type transportation equipment is unsuitable for equipment that transports a large number of passengers because the counterweight is enlarged and the rails and driving devices are enlarged accordingly. It is used as a facility for transporting a relatively small number of people.

Hereinafter, specific embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. FIG.1 and FIG.2 is the track | line longitudinal cross-sectional view and top view which showed an example of the track | line of a rope pulling type transportation facility. As shown in the figure, the railway track is formed by connecting a foothill stop 10 at a low altitude and a summit stop 11 at a high altitude, and connecting two stops 10 and 11 in two sets. Rails 12a and 12b are laid, and the rope 13 is extended along the rails 12a and 12b. The intermediate portion component and one end of the rope 13, the first vehicle 14a and the second vehicle 14b and is connected, further the rope 13, the drive sheave 15a of the driving device 15 with the summit stop field 11 The other end is connected to the counterweight 16 on the rail 12a.

  In this way, the first vehicle 14a and the second vehicle 14b connected to the rope 13 and the counterweight 16 are driven between the rail stops 12a and 11 by driving the prime mover 15 as will be described later. , 12b, the first vehicle 14a and the second vehicle 14b move in the same direction, and the counterweight 16 moves in the opposite direction. The foothill stop 10 and the summit stop 11 are provided with foothill platforms 17a, 17b and summit platforms 18a, 18b, and passengers get on and off from the platforms 17a, 17b and 18a, 18b.

FIG. 3 is a schematic diagram showing the rope pulling type transportation facility shown in FIGS. 1 and 2 in a simplified manner. Rope 13 connecting the counterweight 16 at one end, folding wound around the drive sheave 15a extends summit direction, after extending to the foot of stop field 10, again summit wound around the foot induction pulley 19 It extends to the stop 11. After that, the rope 13 is wound around the summit guide pulley 20 provided at the summit stop 11 and turned back, and extends to the summit stop 10 again. A second vehicle 14b is connected to the end of the rope 13 at the position of the mountain platform 17b of the mountain foot stop 10, and the second vehicle 14b is located at the position of the adjacent mountain platform 17a. The first vehicle 14a is connected to the rope 13 extending from the drive sheave 15a.

Here, in the first vehicle 14a is connected to an intermediate portion portion of rope 13, grip the rope 13 (Nigisaku), and release (Hosaku) comprises a conventionally known Nigisaku device capable of, this It is desirable that the rope 13 and the first vehicle are connected to each other. By doing so, for example, even if the rope 13 extends and the positional relationship between the first vehicle 14a and the second vehicle 14b deviates, the first vehicle 14a is once separated from the rope 13 and the position is corrected. Then, the misalignment can be corrected by connecting to the rope 13 again.

  With the above configuration, when the drive sheave 15a is rotated in the direction of arrow A from the positional relationship shown in FIG. 3 and the rope 13 is driven, the first vehicle 14a and the second vehicle 14b are pulled by the rope 13 and The mountain weight platforms 17a and 17b are moved away from each other at the same time and proceed in parallel in the directions of arrows B and C, and the counterweight 16 descends in the direction of arrow D. Thereafter, the vehicles 14a and 14b arrive at the summit platforms 18a and 18b of the summit stop 11 at the same time, and the rotation of the drive sheave 15a is stopped to stop the vehicles 14a and 14b. Next, when the vehicles 14a and 14b move from the summit stop 11 to the foothill stop 10, the vehicles 14a and 14b move simultaneously by rotating the drive sheave 15a in the opposite direction. In other words, the first vehicle 14a and the second vehicle 14b are always located at the same distance from the foothill platforms 17a, 17b and the mountaintop platforms 18a, 18b and move in the same direction.

  Thus, according to said structure, since each vehicle 14a, 14b moves by moving in the same direction between both the stop 10 and 11, it is operated by many passengers at the stop 10 and 11 at a time. Even when concentrated, a large number of passengers can be transported at once. In addition, when there are few passengers to be transported, if the gripping device of the first vehicle 14a at the intermediate position is separated from the rope 13, it is possible to operate only by the second vehicle 14b. Operation can be performed. In the above configuration, a description has been given of a mode in which two vehicles are operated. However, a plurality of hillside guide pulleys 19 and mountaintop guide pulleys 20 are provided, and a plurality of vehicles are connected by sequentially winding a rope 13 around them. It is also possible.

  Next, another embodiment will be described. FIG. 4 is a longitudinal cross-sectional view of a line in another embodiment, and FIG. 5 is a schematic diagram in this case. As shown in FIG. 4, in this embodiment, a track is formed across a mountain top in a small mountainous terrain, a rail 12a is laid on one inclined surface, and the first vehicle 14a is arranged, A rail 12b is laid on the inclined surface opposite to the inclined surface, and the second vehicle 14b is arranged. As shown in FIG. 5, the configuration on the rail 12 a side is the same as the configuration shown in FIG. 3, but in this embodiment, the rope 13 that has turned the foot guide pulley 19 is formed by the summit guide pulley 20. It bends in the vertical direction and extends to the opposite slope side, and its end is connected to the second vehicle 14b at the position of the foothill platform 17b.

  In the above configuration, when the drive sheave 15a is rotated in the direction of arrow A to drive the rope 13, the first vehicle 14a and the second vehicle 14b are pulled by the rope 13 and leave the mountain platforms 17a and 17b at the same time. And the counterweight 16 descends in the direction of arrow D. Thereafter, the vehicles 14a and 14b arrive at the summit platforms 18a and 18b of the summit stop 11 at the same time, and the rotation of the drive sheave 15a is stopped to stop the vehicles 14a and 14b. Next, when the drive sheave 15a is reversely rotated, the first vehicle 14a and the second vehicle 14b move toward the foothill platforms 17a and 17b, respectively.

  According to this configuration, for example, when there is a passenger moving from the foothill platform 17a side to the foothill platform 17b side, the first vehicle 14a and the second vehicle 14b stop simultaneously at the mountaintop platform 18a, 18b. Passengers can immediately switch between the vehicles 14a and 14b, and time loss is reduced.
