Abstract

L'invention concerne un système de transport se présentant sous la forme d'une voie suspendue destinée à des personnes, notamment à des fins d'amusement, ou à des marchandises, composée d'une voie (système de voie de circulation) et d'un rail conducteur parallèle à ladite voie. Ladite voie porte plusieurs véhicules composés d'un chariot roulant sur la voie et d'une nacelle suspendue au chariot. Chaque chariot comporte un moteur électrique alimenté en courant par l'intermédiaire du rail conducteur, et un appareil de commande moteur destiné à la commande du moteur. L'invention vise à mettre en oeuvre un tel système de transport de personnes offrant un niveau d'amusement élevé tout en garantissant un fonctionnement sûr. A cet effet, chaque véhicule peut être commandé individuellement. Une station de commande centrale connectée logiquement aux appareils de commande moteur est conçue de telle manière qu'en cas de besoin, c.-à-d. en cas de risque de collision de véhicules ou de vitesse trop élevée, les signaux de commande individuels sont écrasés afin de forcer un mode de fonctionnement adapté à la situation.
