    摘要: In order to enable more reliable actuation of the entry barrier (8) of a cable car vehicle (5) in a cable car station (2), at least one mechanically actuatable barrier actuation element (24) for actuating the entry barrier (8) is provided on the cable car vehicle (5), and at least one movable actuation component (28, 30) is provided in the barrier actuation apparatus (10). The actuation component (28, 30) is moved by the remote-control unit (11) upon activation of the barrier actuation apparatus (10) in order to exert an actuation force on the barrier actuation element (24), wherein the barrier actuation element (24) is moved by the actuation force in order to actuate the entry barrier (8).

    摘要: An aerial cableway system has at least two stations between which vehicles, such as gondola cars, travel as they are pulled by a cable. The stations include a boarding zone for passengers to board the vehicles and a disembarking zone, where passengers disembark from the vehicles. A sensor can be activated by a vehicle entering a station. At least one restricted area with at least one restrictor is located in the station and the restrictor has a controller which can be activated by the sensor.

    摘要: Emergency egress systems carry multiple riders simultaneously accessing a zip line (catenary) from higher, accessible, working locations to lower, safer areas in a marine environment. Hangers above the track line suspend trolleys to avoid weighting the catenary unduly at the high end, which might otherwise alter (reduce) clearance distances and safety of riders above a launch platform (deck). Catenary shape is controlled against approaching the launch deck by sequencing the release from the hangers of each trolley to roll along the catenary with its own rider. Track line systems installed may be left undeployed indefinitely. Deployment of a track line will typically be fully effected at the time of egress, adding time but eliminating permanent obstructions that would result if a permanent deployment of track lines were undertaken. Terminal ends are anchored and configured to accommodate workers arriving after escape.

    摘要: Zip track systems and systems for extending zip track systems are provided. An extension mechanism for a zip track system illustratively comprises a crossover unit, configured to attach to a zip track. The crossover unit illustratively comprises a crossover arch and two crossover support poles, wherein each of the support poles connects to an end portion of the crossover arch such that the support poles are configured to stand perpendicular to the zip track. The extension system further illustratively comprises a connection mechanism configured to connect the crossover arch to the zip track system such that the crossover unit distributes the weight of the track through the crossover arch and the crossover support poles.
