Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a carriage of a rope-towed suspension type transportation facility in which a carrier is suspended on a rail or rope elevated in the air and the carriage is towed by the rope for transportation.

As a transportation facility for operating a suspension type vehicle or a carrier along an elevated rail or line in the air, a transportation facility such as a suspension type monorail or a cableway is known. As is well known, the suspension type monorail is a system in which a traveling machine that suspends a passenger car is self-propelled along a rigid rigid track, and transport is performed.The traveling track has a curved section and a straight section. Although it is possible to set them in any combination, the driving force for traveling depends on the frictional force between the tires of the traveling machine and the rails, and therefore the traveling gradient is limited. On the other hand, the cableway can be set steep on the operation line because it is transported by pulling the carrier with a rope, but if you want to provide a curve in the plane direction, you need complicated bending equipment. There is a drawback that

Conventionally, the following transportation facilities are known as transportation facilities that complement the disadvantages of the monorail and cableway. In this transportation facility, running girders are installed in a loop between the stops at both ends, and a plurality of vehicles circulate along the running girders. Along the traveling girder, ropes are circulated endlessly, and by driving the ropes, the vehicle is towed by the ropes and moves between the stops. The vehicle includes a vehicle main body for accommodating passengers, luggage, etc., a traveling wheel mechanism for suspending the vehicle main body and equipped with wheels for traveling a traveling girder, and a rope provided on an upper portion of the traveling wheel mechanism. And a gripping device for striking and releasing. The vehicle grips the rope in the railroad track and moves with the rope, releases the rope at the stop, and moves in the stop by the linear motor drive instead. With such a configuration, in this transportation facility, a plurality of vehicles are arranged at regular intervals in the track, and the vehicles are circulated between the stops for transportation (see, for example, Patent Document 1).
