2. Description of the Related Art Although a louge with wheels for a road surface has been already proposed, which makes it possible to drive on a down road surface from a highland on the mountain top side to a lowland on the foothill side, the luge from the arrival point to the departure point. No dedicated means of raising has been proposed.

[0003]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention provides a method and apparatus for mechanically continuously pulling a running body such as a luge for a road surface from a lowland side as an arrival point to a highland side as a departure point. Is an issue.

[0004]

In the pulling method according to the first aspect of the present invention, as a first step, a hook rod having a hook extending downward in the lowland is detachably attached at the center of gravity of the sleeve pulling traveling body on the lowland side. Set up.

Then, as a second step, the running body is transferred by the first conveyor to a chair transition locus in the ascending course of the chair lift for skiers.

In the third step, the hook of the moving body is hooked on the front edge of the moving chair, and the running body in the suspended posture is transferred to the highland together with the chair.

Next, as a fourth step, at the traveling body removing position, the traveling body is loaded and moved on the second conveyor moving in the same direction as the chair lift at a speed higher than the moving speed of the lift, and the hook is moved. The hook of the rod is removed from the hooked front edge of the chain and is transferred to the traveling body take-out position by the second conveyor.

A method according to claim 2 for carrying out the method according to the preceding paragraph.
In the device according to the invention, the first conveyor is arranged so as to move in the same direction as the chair lift facing the starting point of the chair transfer locus in the climbing course of the chair lift for skiers.

A second conveyor that moves in the same direction as the chair lift at a speed faster than the lift moving speed is disposed at an arbitrary position near the end point of the chair moving locus, and the second conveyor is placed on the object. It has been extended to the take-out position.

On the other hand, with respect to the chair lift, a hook rod having a hook extending to the lowland side is provided so as to be detachably attached to a traveling body which is an object to be conveyed.

Further, the length of the hook rod is set so that a predetermined height space is formed between the lower surface of the traveling body and the ground surface when the hook is hooked on the front end of the chair. The configuration is set.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS FIGS. 1 to 6 show an embodiment of both the inventions of claims 1 and 2. In FIGS. 1, 2 and 3, reference numeral 1 is a position close to the summit and a position near the foot of the mountain. It shows a chair lift for skiers installed between the position and.

The method and apparatus according to the present invention uses this chair lift 1 to lift the road surface luge 2 as a running body shown in FIG. 6 from the lowland 3 on the foothill side to the luge take-out position on the highland 4 on the mountaintop side. It is a thing.

A first conveyor 6 is provided which faces the lowland 3, that is, the starting point 5 of the chair transition locus in the ascending course of the chair lift 1, and which moves in the same direction as the lift.

The first conveyor 6 in the illustrated example is composed of a plurality of conveyor groups that are individually endlessly operated to transfer the luge 2 to the starting point 5 from a point 7 further below the starting point 5, at the starting point 5. Only the first conveyor 6 has a hook, which will be described later, of the Luge 2 placed on the upper surface thereof, and is hooked at the front end of the chair by the transfer of the chair, and has a height suitable for carrying the Luge 2 in a suspended posture. Set to speed and.

The first conveyor 6 and the chair lift 1 are provided with a sensor S for detecting that the luge 2 has been brought to the transfer position, and a control device for driving the chair lift 1 in response to a detection signal from the sensor. And are attached, but the illustration is omitted.

FIGS. 4 and 5 show the hook rod 8 for hanging the luge 2 on the front edge of the chair in the horizontal suspended posture as described above.

The hook rod 8 in the illustrated example includes frame bodies 9, 10, 1
The lower frame bodies 10 and 11 are fixed in parallel to the left and right of the structure made of 1 and the two positions of the handle 13 are set at two positions, that is, a position separated from each other by a central tightening fixing tool 12 and an engagement position shown in the drawing. It is locked by a known mechanism that can be occupied by the rotation in the arrow X direction.

The hook 14 of the hook rod 8 has a straight upper edge 15
And the hooks 14 of the left and right hook rods are opened in the same direction.

The hook rod 8 is directed to the lowland direction of the chair lift 1 with the hook 14 directed toward the lowland of the chair lift 1 in a state where the tightening fixture 12 is opened and the interval between the frame bodies 10 and 11 is widened. By fitting on both sides and tightening with the tightening fixing tool 12, it is detachably fixed to the luge 2.

As shown in FIG. 6, the chair 16 of the chair lift 1 hooks the hook 14 at the front edge 18 of the seating portion 17 of the skier, and conveys and transfers the luge 2 in a horizontal hanging posture.

A second conveyor 20 is arranged at the take-out position 19 of the luge 2 on the highland 4 which is the end point of the chair lift 1 on the mountaintop side.

The second conveyor 20 is set so as to move in the same direction as the chair lift 1 at a speed higher than that of the chair lift 1, and as the chair lift 1 moves, the luge 2 is suspended on the chair 16. As it is, it is gradually loaded on the upper surface of the second conveyor 20, and finally the second conveyor 2
The relative position between the second conveyor 20 and the chair lift 1 is selected so that it can be completely carried by the second conveyor 20 and can be conveyed by the second conveyor 20. In the illustrated example, the second conveyor 20 is installed so as to be inclined slightly higher.

Since the luge 2 loaded on the second conveyor 20 moves at a higher speed than the chair lift 1, the hook 14 is automatically disengaged from the front edge 18 of the chair 16 and is transferred only by the second conveyor 20.

The hook 14 has the straight upper edge 15, so that the hook 14 can be automatically detached from the front edge 18 smoothly.

In the illustrated example, the front end 21 of the second conveyor 20.
The carry-out slope 22 is connected to the Luge 2
After being taken out from the conveyor 20, it travels by itself according to the carry-out slope 22, is taken out from the chair lift 1, and is reused.

Although the illustrated example is used for pulling up the luge 2 having a wheel for a road surface, it goes without saying that the traveling body may be a toboggan, a ski bob, a sled or the like used during snowfall.

[0030]

According to the method and apparatus of the present invention, a traveling body such as a luge for road surface can be automatically conveyed and transferred from an arrival point on the lowland side to a departure point on the highland side. It has the effect that it can be repeatedly used repeatedly.

Further, since the traveling body uses the hook rod detachably fixed to the center of gravity and is transported and transferred by the chair of the chair lift in a horizontal hanging posture, the chair lift is not subjected to a biased load. Not only is the lift not damaged, but the parts of the traveling body are not used for hooking, so that the traveling body is not damaged.

In particular, as the device, the above-mentioned chair lift for skiers is used, both the first and second conveyors are attached to the lift, and only the hook rod for detachably fixing to the running body is prepared. Since it is sufficient, there is also an effect that the equipment cost can be lowered.
