Abstract
Description
- The present invention relates to a cableway system with supporting and haul cables.
- More specifically, the present invention relates to a cableway system of the type described in HOELZL COSTRUZIONE FUNIVIE S.R.L. Patent
EP 0 692 418 B1 granted on 24.11.1999 , and comprising two supporting cables spaced a given distance apart and secured at opposite ends; a trolley fitted to the supporting cables; and a haul-cable drive interposed between an actuating unit and the trolley to move the trolley in opposite directions along the supporting cables. - The haul-cable drive comprises two drive pulleys powered by the actuating unit and located at a drive station; two return pulleys located at a return station; an endless haul cable looped about the two drive pulleys and two return pulleys; a first pair of idle pulleys fitted to the trolley and about which is looped the intermediate portion of the haul cable extending between the drive pulleys; and a second pair of idle pulleys, also fitted to the trolley, and about which is looped the intermediate portion of the haul cable extending between the return pulleys.
- Known solutions of the type described above have several drawbacks, foremost of which is that of requiring not only an endless but also a "constant-strength" or "seamless" haul cable, in which the splice is practically invisible and poses no problems when winding on and off the pulleys, because the break load of the haul cable is practically the same at any point along it. Obtaining splices with the above characteristics is not easy, and involves painstaking work that can only be carried out on site by highly skilled personnel, thus resulting in high cost in terms of time and labour.
- To this must be added additional comparable time and labour costs, on account of the haul cable, during operation of the system, settling and stretching, so that the first splice must inevitably be followed by cutting and further splicing.
- It is an object of the present invention to provide a cableway system with supporting and haul cables, differing from existing systems, and designed to provide a straightforward, low-cost solution to the above problems.
- According to the present invention, there is provided a cableway system with supporting and haul cables, comprising at least one pair of supporting cables located a given distance apart and secured at opposite ends, a trolley fitted to said supporting cables, and a haul-cable drive interposed between an actuating unit and said trolley to move the trolley in opposite directions along said supporting cables; the haul-cable drive comprising two drive pulleys connected to said actuating unit and located at a drive station, two return pulleys located at a return station, and a haul cable wound about the two drive pulleys and the two return pulleys; the haul-cable drive also comprising relative-mobility means interposed between said trolley and an intermediate portion of said haul cable extending between said drive pulleys, to permit relative movement of said intermediate portion with respect to said trolley; and the system being characterized in that said haul-cable drive also comprises retaining means carried by said trolley to fix firmly to the trolley the portions of said haul cable extending from said return pulleys towards said trolley.
- A non-limiting embodiment of the invention will be described by way of example with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which:
-
Figure 1 shows a schematic view of a preferred embodiment of the cableway system according to the present invention; -
Figure 2 shows schematically, with parts removed for clarity, a first variation of a detail inFigure 1 ; -
Figure 3 shows a side view, with parts sectioned for clarity, of a detail inFigure 2 ; -
Figure 4 is similar toFigure 2 , and shows schematically, with parts removed for clarity, a second variation of a detail inFigure 1 ; -
Figure 5 is similar toFigure 4 , and shows schematically, with parts removed for clarity, a variation of a detail inFigure 4 ; -
Figure 6 shows a larger-scale detail ofFigures 4 and 5 . -
Number 1 onFigure 1 indicates as a whole a cableway system with supporting and haul cables. -
System 1 may be used on its own to form asingle cable track 2, or, conveniently, alongside anidentical cableway system 1 to form a two-cable tracks, i.e. to andfro cableway system 3 only shown partly inFigure 1 . -
System 1 comprises adrive station 5; a return station 6; two parallel supportingcables 7 spaced a given distance apart and secured at one end atdrive station 5, and at the other end at return station 6; a knowntrolley 8 fitted to supporting cables 7 (Figures 1 and3 ); apassenger car 8a suspended fromtrolley 8; and a haul-cable actuatingunit 9 for movingtrolley 8 in opposite directions along supportingcables 7. - Actuating
unit 9 comprises a knownmotor reducer 10 atdrive station 5; and a haul-cable drive 12 interposed betweentrolley 8 andmotor reducer 10. - With reference to
Figure 1 , haul-cable drive 12 comprises twodrive pulleys 14 located atdrive station 5 and connected in known manner tomotor reducer 10; tworeturn pulleys 15 located at return station 6, and each connected to arespective counterweight 16 for moving therespective return pulley 15 away from thecorresponding drive pulley 14; anopen haul cable 18 wound about the twodrive pulleys 14 and the tworeturn pulleys 15, as shown inFigure 1 ; and two connectingdevices trolley 8 to connecthaul cable 18 totrolley 8. -
Device 19 is located on the side oftrolley 8 facingdrive pulleys 14, and comprises twoidle pulleys 21 fitted in fixed positions and in rotary manner totrolley 8, and about which winds a continuousintermediate portion 22 ofhaul cable 18 extending betweendrive pulleys 14. In actual use,idle pulleys 21 permit relative movement ofintermediate portion 22 with respect totrolley 8. - With reference to
Figure 1 ,device 19 also comprises a known sense-pulley unit 24 located betweenidle pulleys 21 and comprising anidle pulley 25, which rotates about an axis parallel to those ofidle pulleys 21, and is forced againstportion 22 extending betweenpulleys 21, so as to curve part ofportion 22 towardsdrive station 5.Unit 24 determines any variation in the tension ofportion 22, and transmits a control signal to a known brake unit (not shown) forlocking trolley 8 onhaul cables 7. - Alternatively, in a variation not shown, each
idle pulley 21 is replaced by a respective number of side by side rollers with axes parallel to one another and to the axis ofpulley 25, or by a slide member defining a curved slide and guide track, on which part ofintermediate portion 22 slides. - With reference to
Figure 1 , unlikedevice 19,device 20 is a retaining device, by which the twofree end portions haul cable 18 fromreturn pulleys 15 are connected firmly totrolley 8 to prevent any relative movement betweenportions trolley 8. - In the
Figure 1 embodiment,device 20 comprises, for eachfree end portion joint 27 interposed betweenrelative portion bracket 28 fitted integrally totrolley 8. - Alternatively, in the
Figure 2 and 3 variation,device 20 comprises, for eachend portion respective drum 29, which is fitted integrally totrolley 8 with its axis conveniently parallel to those ofpulleys idle pulley 21, and is wound with anintermediate portion 29a ofrelative end portion end portion 30 of which is secured totrolley 8 by a respective knownclamp 31 not described in detail.Intermediate portions 29a are conveniently wound several times aboutrespective drums 29 to form an "intermediate store" of standby cable for use during routine maintenance of system 1 (Figure 3 ). - In the
Figure 4 variation, eachdrum 29 is replaced by a respectivefixed guide member 34, which is secured totrolley 8 and has a circumferential outer groove 35 (figure 6 ) engaged byrelative end portion trolley 8 and to the end portion of theother portion common clamp 36. Alternatively, the two free end portions ofportions clamp 36 secures the join or intermediate portions ofportions trolley 8. - In the
Figure 5 variation,clamp 36 is replaced by adrum 38 fixed totrolley 8, betweenguide members 34, and about which the joinedend portions drum 38 by one or more dead turns of the cable. -
Devices 20 described, by connectinghaul cable 18 firmly totrolley 8, regardless of whetherhaul cable 18 is open or endless, therefore provide, unlike the solution in PatentEP 0 692 418 B1 , for totally transferring compensation or elimination of any difference in tension between the portions wound aboutreturn pulleys 15 fromtrolley 8 to the return pulleys and counterweights, thus greatly simplifying the design of the trolley. - Moreover, by enabling the use of open haul cables,
system 1 described provides, unlike the known solution, for fast, easy takeup of any variation in the length of the haul cable caused by settling of the cable or normal operation of the system. In fact, in the case of theFigure 2 and4 solutions,haul cable 18 is shortened by simply loosening andretightening clamps - Alternatively,
haul cable 18 is shorted, in theFigure 1 solution, by simply remakingjoints 27, and, in theFigure 2 and5 solutions, by simply winding it about one or both ofdrums 29 and aboutdrum 38 respectively. - When using endless cables, as in the
Figure 4 and 5 solutions,clamp 36 anddrum 38 provide, when performing routine maintenance and, therefore, when the system is shut down, for sliding the cable easily with respect totrolley 8 andpulleys - Unlike known solutions, the characteristics described - in particular, distancing from
trolley 8 compensation of any difference in the tension ofhaul cable 18 on the return side - enable the use of both open cables, thus solving all the problems connected with splicing the haul cable, and endless cables, which may be joined using straightforward clamps and/or in such a manner that the join is located at the clamps or drums, with no need for special joints for forming constant-strength cables.
