Abstract
Description
- The present invention relates to a rescue trolley for recovering and transporting transportation units of a cable transportation system.
- More specifically, the present invention relates to a rescue trolley for recovering and transporting transportation units of a cable transportation system comprising at least one supporting cable and a rescue pull cable; the rescue trolley comprising a frame guided along a given path by the supporting cable, an anchoring device for engaging a transportation unit, and a connecting device for connecting the frame to the rescue pull cable.
- Such a trolley is known from
EP 0 265 354 A1 . - Known rescue trolleys of the type described above have the drawback of being unable to move the rescue unit in both pull directions of the rescue pull cable, mainly on account of known rescue trolleys being equipped with a substantially one-way connecting device.
- Another drawback of known rescue trolleys is their inability to negotiate oppositely-inclined path portions. These are located at the idler trains supporting the supporting cable by means of pylons between the top and bottom stations, and, as is known, result from the sag in the supporting cable forming oppositely-sloping portions, i.e. sloping in the opposite direction to the overall slope between the top and bottom stations.
- Being designed to operate along a given path portion with a given slope, and to effect recovery in a given direction, known connecting devices are unable to operate in both directions or to negotiate changes in slope, i.e. opposite slopes.
- Moreover, changes in slope also produce shock capable of further stressing the mechanical parts of the rescue trolley and transportation unit.
- It is an object of the present invention to provide a rescue trolley for recovering and transporting transportation units of a cable transportation system, designed to eliminate the drawbacks of the known art.
- According to the present invention, there is provided a rescue trolley for recovering and transporting transportation units of a cable transportation system comprising at least one supporting cable and a rescue pull cable; the rescue trolley comprising a frame guided along a given path by the supporting cable, an anchoring device for engaging a transportation unit, and a connecting device for connecting the frame to the rescue pull cable; the rescue trolley being characterized in that the connecting device comprises a first connecting assembly fixed to the rescue pull cable; a second connecting assembly hinged to the frame and connected to the first connecting assembly; and a third connecting assembly secured to the frame and connected to the first connecting assembly; said rescue pull cable drawing the rescue trolley selectively by means of the first and second connecting assembly or the first and third connecting assembly, depending on the moving direction of the rescue pull cable and the slope of the supporting cable.
- Pulling force is thus transmitted effectively between the frame and rescue pull cable by the second or third connecting assembly, which intervene automatically, depending on the slope of the supporting cables and the pull direction.
- The present invention also relates to a cable transportation system.
- According to the present invention, there is provided a cable transportation system comprising a bottom station; a top station; at least one supporting cable extending between the bottom station and the top station; a pull cable extending between the bottom station and the top station; at least one transportation unit supported by the supporting cable and drawn by the pull cable; a rescue pull cable; and at least one rescue trolley in accordance with the present invention.
- A non-limiting embodiment of the present invention will be described by way of example with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which:
-
Figure 1 shows a schematic side view, with parts removed for clarity, of a cable transportation system equipped with a rescue trolley in accordance with the present invention; -
Figure 2 shows a partly sectioned view in perspective, with parts removed for clarity, of the rescue trolley according to the present invention; -
Figures 3 to 6 show side views, with parts removed for clarity, of theFigure 2 rescue trolley in different operating positions. -
Number 1 inFigure 1 indicates as a whole a cable transportation system comprising abottom station 2; astop station 3; twointermediate idler trains 4 supported byrespective pylons 5; two supporting cables 6 (only one shown inFigure 1 ); apull cable 7; arescue pull cable 8; and atransportation unit 9 comprising atrolley 10, which is supported by supportingcables 6 and drawn, in use, bypull cable 7, to whichtrolley 10 is connected by aclamp 11. -
Cable transportation system 1 comprises arescue trolley 12 which, in the event of a breakdown ofcable transportation system 1, provides for recovering and transportingtransportation unit 9 tobottom station 2 ortop station 3. -
Figure 1 shows only onerescue trolley 12, it being understood, however, that the system may comprise a number ofrescue trolleys 12 parked respectively in the vicinity ofbottom station 2 andtop station 2, and even at any intermediate locations. - With reference to
Figure 2 ,rescue trolley 12 rests on supportingcables 6, is connected torescue pull cable 8, and comprises aframe 13 guided by supportingcables 6; ananchoring device 14 for engaging a transportation unit 9 (not shown inFigure 2 ); a connectingdevice 15 for connectingframe 13 to rescuepull cable 8; and arescue personnel platform 16 fitted toframe 13 to rotate about an axis A1 and so remain horizontal regardless of the tilt offrame 13. - In the example shown,
frame 13 supports in rotary manner four assemblies 17 (only two shown inFigure 2 ), each of which comprises tworollers 18 connected by a rocker arm and engaging one of supportingcables 6. - Anchoring
device 14 comprises a tow hook 19 integral withframe 13; and atow hook 20 hinged to frame 13 about an axis A2 by anarm 21, and hinged to arm 21 about an axis A3. - By means of
tow hooks 19 and 20,frame 13 ofrescue trolley 12 is connectable totrolley 10 oftransportation unit 9 along two opposite sides. - Connecting
device 15 comprises a first connectingassembly 22 fixed to rescuepulley cable 8; a second connectingassembly 23 hinged toframe 13 and engaging first connectingassembly 22 in sliding manner; and a third connectingassembly 24 secured toframe 13 and engaging first connectingassembly 22 in sliding manner. Andrescue pull cable 8 drawsrescue trolley 12 selectively by means of first and second connectingassemblies assemblies rescue pull cable 8 and the slope of supportingcables 6. More specifically, first connectingassembly 22 comprises twoclamps 25 spaced apart and fixed to rescuepull cable 8; and alongitudinal member 26 supported isostatically betweenclamps 25 by twoarms rescue pull cable 8 extending betweenclamps 25. - With reference to
Figures 3 to 5 ,longitudinal member 26 is hollow and forms a rail fixed inside with a stop which also acts as a damper, and which in the example shown is defined by afluid cylinder 29, in particular a hydraulic cylinder with arod 30 maintained in the extended position by a spring not shown in the drawings. - With reference to
Figure 4 , second connectingassembly 23 is substantially defined by a rudder comprising anarm 31 connected toframe 13 by an articulatedjoint 32 defined by a universal joint - in the example shown, a Cardan joint; and a slidingmember 33 engaged inside and sliding alonglongitudinal member 26.Arm 31 and slidingmember 33 are connected by an articulatedjoint 34. - Third connecting
assembly 24 comprises a flexible elongated member 35 - in the example shown, a cable; twopulleys member 38 fitted to the free end ofrod 30 and in sliding manner tolongitudinal member 26. -
Cylinder 29, as stated, is housed insidelongitudinal member 26, and divideslongitudinal member 26 into two parts. And both slidingmembers member 38 is located betweencylinder 29 and slidingmember 33. - Pulley 36 is fitted in rotary manner to the end of
longitudinal member 26 on the opposite side to slidingmembers pulley 37 is fitted in rotary manner to slidingmember 38. -
Cable 35 is fixed at one end toframe 13 ofrescue trolley 12, and at the other end tolongitudinal member 26, close topulley 36, and is wound aboutpulleys -
Cable 35 forms a U aboutpulley 37, and has two branches substantially parallel to each other and tolongitudinal member 26. - When needed, i.e. in the event of a breakdown of
cable transportation system 1 preventingtransportation units 9 from being moved,rescue trolley 12 is drawn byrescue pull cable 8 up to thetransportation unit 9 closest to bottom station 2 (or top station 3); and therescue trolley 12 operators onplatform 16 connect tow hooks 19 and 20 totrolley 10 oftransportation unit 9, and releaseclamp 11 frompull cable 7. - Once this is done,
transportation unit 9 can be towed byrescue trolley 12 tobottom station 2 ortop station 3. -
Figure 3 shows the operating mode by which to tow the transportation unit totop station 3, which meansrescue trolley 12 must negotiate a positive slope, i.e. travel uphill in direction D. In which case, first and second connectingassemblies rescue pull cable 8 andframe 13. More specifically, slidingmember 33 slides towards and into contact with slidingmember 38. The pulling force gradually shortensrod 30 by means of slidingmember 33, so that, when starting, any shock produced by sharp movements is damped bycylinder 29. The pulling force is transmitted fromrescue pull cable 8 toframe 13 byarm 31 and articulatedjoints - In this operating mode,
cable 35 is slack and plays no part in transmitting the pulling force. -
Figure 4 shows the operating mode by which to tow the transportation unit along a flat portion of supportingcables 6, and which applies regardless of the travelling direction (tobottom station 2 or top station 3). - In this case, very little pulling force is transmitted between
rescue pull cable 8 andrescue trolley 12, and serves simply to overcome the rolling friction ofrescue trolley 12 andtransportation unit 9;cylinder 29expels rod 30; slidingmembers cable 35 is taut. Pulling force, in fact, is mainly transmitted by first and second connectingassemblies Figure 4 ), and by first and third connectingassemblies Figure 4 ). -
Figure 5 shows the operating mode by which to tow the transportation unit tobottom station 2 along an oppositely-sloping portion, i.e. with a positive (uphill) slope, even though towing tobottom station 2 is performed in the opposite direction to direction D. - In this case, pulling force is transmitted solely by means of first and third connecting
assemblies rod 30 is compressed insidecylinder 29 by thetaut cable 35; slidingmember 33 is located at the end oflongitudinal member 26; andframe 13 changes position with respect to longitudinal member 26:frame 13 is located predominantly under the left half oflongitudinal member 26 inFigure 3 , and substantially centrally with respect tolongitudinal member 26 inFigure 5 . -
Rescue trolley 12 is thus able to towtransportation unit 9 in opposite directions and along oppositely-inclined slopes. Supportingcables 6 in theFigure 1 transportation system, in particular, comprise alternating oppositely-inclined portions, which is fairly common, particularly at idler trains 4 (Figure 1 ).Rescue trolley 12 is able to negotiate oppositely-inclined portions while at the same time damping, by means ofcylinder 29, any shock produced by changes in slope. -
Figure 6 showsrescue trolley 12 in a number of operating modes characterized by different distances between supportingcables 6 andrescue pull cable 8. The sag in supportingcables 6 andrescue pull cable 8 between bottom andtop stations intermediate idler trains 4, in fact, make it virtually impossible to keeprescue pull cable 8 at a constant distance from, and more generally in a constant position with respect to, supportingcables 6. - By virtue of articulated
joints cable 35, and the sliding connection between connectingassembly 22 and connectingassemblies rescue trolley 12 is able to cope with up to a 2200 mm distance between supportingcables 6 andrescue pull cable 8.
