on the way surface in spite of the degree of Considered in its simplest aspects my cong cept provides for a carriage or system of carriages such as I have indicated generally in Fig. 1. In this view I have indicated generally as A a wheeled unit later to be described in one of its preferred forms, but generally to be understood as a part of an inclined elevated cable system. I have suggested in fragment with the carriage A a pair of supporting ways W spaced slightly apart to leave an intermediate opening 0.
Referring to the carriage A as the basis of consideration, I may at the outsetcall attention to the fact that the passenger seat Sis askew of the cable or towing axis. It preferably is on the angle of seating incidence when considered from the axis of the boarding rail R, R by which the passenger swings aboard, having first stepped upon the running board inset U or which may extend the full length of the side of the carriage for summer service.
This rail (see Fig. 1) includes a main vertical stanchion portion R and its bracing cross rail portion B. As indicated in the suggestion of the immediate installation, such a stanchion rail may be backed or braced on like guard rails G which may be advisable for guarding passenger carelessness when in transit.
An actual embodiment may be several thousand feet in ascent and up any geographically favorable location, one such as might be indicated, as for example, by a straight line on a contoured Survey-Map, showing the location, but it will be understood that any actual view is impossible except on a miniature or model basis. Only a single car is indicated in the view, but in prac- 7 tice they are continuously spaced along the cable.
That the showing be better understood and appreciated, it may be indicated that an actual present project involved an inclined way some three thousand feet in ascent. It is pitched to a 15 or 20% incline. Including its return way, the so-called ways or walks W involve a length of some six thousand feet of elevated surface. This may be and preferably is in typical installations of plank and supported on posts, trestles, or other convenient and inexpensive understructure.
Taking such an installation as illustrative, it will be seen that my invention provides for the support of the cable C intermediate the bottom sheave and a top or driving sheave. sheave may be powered in any convenient and economicalmanner, as by a gosoline engine or electric motor, Where such power is available. (Not shown.)
A bottom sheave is preferably mounted on a car movable on tracks and counterweighted in the usual manner in cable ways of such types for taking up the slack due to varying loads.
Referring to Fig. 1, it will be seen that my carriage A can be in the form of simple wheeled trucks in which the passenger platform as at A (Fig. 8) is utilized as the longitudinal frame.
The axles D are pivoted as at E and are contowed by arms F which are hung on a pivoting fork H on the front or leading axle of each car- 1 riage. At its lower end a yoke Y is pivoted as at X.
The yokes Y encircle members Z secured to the cable at regular intervals, as, for example, every feet. This permits a free swiveling bearing Such drive for the yoke which forms'an offset pivoted foot for the bar F in passing around'the groove sheaves as suggested in Fig. 1.
The wheels T are preferably rubber tired and novel advantages, particularly for the ski-minded a public. It may be said to provide a novel method of upgrade assistanced progression of ski or like equipped passengers in which the procedure consists in mounting an upgrade moving conveyance while standing beside its way, including the preliminary stage of assuming a mounting stance parallel to the movement of the convey ance, in making pivotal manual engagement with the conveyance laterally thereof, in shifting the mounting stance laterally to the conveyance and in assuming aseated posture upon the convey- According to my present invention, the towing arm F is provided with a vertical guide 2 supported on a short forwardly projecting bracket I.
This guide is a short cylindrical bar of slightly.
less diameter than the centralslot or opening 0 in the way W.
It is set centrally under the yoke H which in the form shown is made with its end, brackets at 1 right angles to the cross bar portion Y. This gives more perfect pivoting of the towing arm F in its pivoting mounting on the front axle D of each car. 7
The arm F is preferably bent from flat stocks and has at its lower end a pair of overlapped fork forming members Y conveniently welded to the main or central arm F.
At the rear wheel axle of the carriage Iprovide a yoke. It preferably is formed from flat stock as a cross web [0 having upturned perforated ears II; Centrally of this rearyoke I mount a cylindrical spur I2 which may be'spot welded to the cross member l0 and works freely in the slot 0. By guiding the rear of the carriage in the axis of swing'of the rear wheel axle lateral movements are promptlychecked and the car thus kept under a steady control in spite of y 5 ice or other roughness on the way.
While I have laid opening emphasis on the skiing aspects of my invention, it is of course as I have heretofore suggested a boon to mountain lovers who for lack of time or strength cannot make the grade on foot. y I
As the ski passenger so stands he or she faces uphill or in the direction in which the carriages move in making the ascent. As the carriage comes abreast of the Waiting passenger, the stanchion R or its rail R is grasped while the left foot with or without its ski is slipped aboard the low plane of the running board U. As soon as weight can be transferred tothe foot so positioned the other foot and its ski can be lifted to a place beside it when the passenger steadied by the stanchion R and rail R swings diagonally into the seat S which is skewed or angled comfortably to receive him.
When it is desired to dismount at the top or v at some optional intermediate level, the passenger simply rises from the seat S and holding the stanchion R, and rail R assumes a standing posture until first his'right (or outside) foot takes the snow at the station side of the way. Then when weight is put upon it, the other foot is taken from the running board U and its ski launched in running contact with the snow at the side of the way. The dismounted passenger thus arrives in balanced standing posture and under the slight momentum of the carriage speed which is about four miles per hour.
In this way a miscellaneous passenger personnel without previous experience can handle itself without delay or mishap. As installations according to applicants invention increase on standardized bases of control, the public will have a chance increasingly to become educated even when using an installation at a wholly new site, so that the service to such importantly interested may become as it were institutionalized for the common good of all.
In my foregoing discussion, I have referred to my elevated structure as a way or ways. Preferably it is built as a pair of parallel plank walks W spaced slightly apart to leave an intervening slot 0 beneath which the endless towing cable C runs being supported at intervals along its length by the towing arms F of the carriages themselves.
Adjacent the way at the lower and upper levels are mounting or dismounting platforms. Also as above suggested, it is desirable to provide intermediate sidings or take 'oifs I leading from the main way or ways along which the carriages A are being towed according to the terrain of the location selected for the side of any particular installation.
As before suggested, installations according to my invention may be used in winter for skiing and in summer simply for giving passengers assistance to reach heights which would not otherwise be available to them or at least within the time at their disposal. In connection with the technique of the skiing practice this may be varied according to the dexterity of the passenger or according to the ideas of the management as to what is best for handling crowds expeditiously and safely. In some instances the running board U may be dispensed with and the passengers board the carby stepping directly on to the recessed floor of the platform A. Where running boards are omitted, attendants may hand the passengers skiis strapped together to him orher after being safely seated on the seats. When dismounting at the other end, the skiis may be passed to the attendant at that end so that the passenger has both hands free to grasp the rail R.-R'. This is of some assistance in the case of passengers who have not before mounted or dismounted from such moving carriages as go to make up the moving equipment of the installation.
In addition to my brush system K I may have an auxiliary system K placed at the rear of the carriage or some carriages may be equipped with front brushes and some with rear brushes to obtain variety in sweeping performance on the ways W. These brushes may be of fibre or metal or formed as scrapers according to the snow and ice conditions prevalent at any particular installation.
Such installations and modifications may and probably will develop various nomenclatures but their structure and mode of operation are to be understood as within the purview of my invention if within the scope of the appended claims.
What I therefore claim and desire to secure by Letters Patent is:
1. A ski passenger carriage for skiers service on upgrade approaches to an elevated take-off along a cabled inclined way, said way having a central slot and having an endless cable disposed to run below the plane of said slot, said carriage including a platform support, a wheel axle vertically pivoted beneath each end of said support, a depending towing arm dirigibly connected to the front axle of said carriage and disposable through the slot of said inclined cable way below the plane of the wheel axles and clamped to the cable, a forwardly projecting vertical guide on said depending towing arm and supported for free guidance in said slot in advance of the towing cable connection, said axles being connected across so that the wheels at front and rear turn at predetermined angles.
