Description

Die gegenständliche Erfindung betrifft eine Seilbahnanlage zur Beförderung von Personen mit mindestens einem mit einer Fahrzeugkabine ausgebildeten Fahrzeug, welches längs der Strecke an ein Förderseil ankuppelbar ist bzw. welches mittels eines an dieses angekuppelten Zugseiles längs mindestens eines Tragseiles bzw. längs einer Fahrbahn verfahren wird, wobei es längs der Strecke an das Förderseil bzw. an das Zugseil angekuppelt ist und in den Stationen vom Förderseil bzw. vom Zugseil abgekuppelt, durch die Station hindurchbewegt und an mindestens einem Einstiegs- bzw. Ausstiegsbereich vorbeibewegt wird, in welchem es von den Passagieren bestiegen bzw. verlassen wird, worauf es wieder an das Förderseil bzw. an das Zugseil angekuppelt und aus der Station hinausbewegt wird, wobei im Einstiegs- bzw. Ausstiegsbereich ein Förderband vorgesehen ist, welches in Richtung des mindestens einen Fahrzeuges und zumindest angenähert mit der Geschwindigkeit des Fahrzeuges bewegt wird, durch welches diejenigen Passagiere, welche in die mindestens eine sich am Einstiegs- bzw. Ausstiegsbereich vorbeibewegende Fahrzeugkabine einsteigen bzw. diese verlassen, in der Bewegungsrichtung des Fahrzeuges mitbewegt werden.The subject invention relates to a cable car system for the transportation of people with at least one vehicle designed with a vehicle cabin, which can be coupled along the route to a conveyor cable or which is moved along at least one supporting cable or along a roadway by means of a coupled connecting cable it is coupled along the route to the conveyor cable or to the traction cable and uncoupled from the conveyor cable or from the traction cable in the stations, moved through the station and moved past at least one entry or exit area in which it was climbed or climbed by the passengers ., whereupon it is coupled again to the conveyor cable or to the traction cable and moved out of the station, a conveyor belt being provided in the boarding and alighting area, which is in the direction of the at least one vehicle and at least approximately at the speed of the vehicle is moved by h Which passengers who enter or leave the at least one vehicle cabin moving past the entry or exit area are also moved in the direction of movement of the vehicle.

Eine derartige Seilbahnanlage ist z.B. aus der WO 2009/082827 A1 bekannt. Bei bekannten derartigen Seilbahnanlagen befinden sich die in die Fahrzeuge einsteigenden Passagiere auf einer Plattform, von welcher sie in die sich an dieser vorbei bewegenden Fahrzeugkabinen einsteigen bzw. auf welche die aus den sich bewegenden Fahrzeugkabinen aussteigenden Passagiere gelangen. Um das Einsteigen bzw. Aussteigen der Passagiere zu ermöglichen, werden die Fahrzeuge mit einer relativ geringen Geschwindigkeit von z.B. 0,3 m/sec an der Plattform vorbeibewegt. Durch diese für den Betrieb erforderliche geringe Geschwindigkeit ist die Förderkapazität der Seilbahnanlage beschränkt. Ungeachtet dieser geringen Geschwindigkeit stellt das Ein- und Aussteigen für Passagiere mit Behinderungen, insbesondere für sich in Rollstühlen befindliche Passagiere, eine Schwierigkeit dar. Selbst für nicht behinderte Personen wird durch die Bewegung der Fahrzeuge für die einsteigenden bzw. aussteigenden Passagiere ein Stress bedingt.Such a cable car system is from, for example WO 2009/082827 A1 known. In known cable car systems of this type, the passengers entering the vehicles are on a platform from which they enter the vehicle cabins moving past them or onto which the passengers exiting the moving vehicle cabins arrive. In order to enable the passengers to get on and off, the vehicles are moved past the platform at a relatively low speed of, for example, 0.3 m / sec. Due to the low speed required for operation, the conveying capacity of the cable car system is limited. Notwithstanding this low speed, boarding and alighting is a difficulty for passengers with disabilities, especially for passengers in wheelchairs. Even for non-disabled people People are stressed by the movement of the vehicles for the boarding and disembarking passengers.

Insoweit als die Förderkapazität betroffen ist, kann diese dadurch vergrößert werden, dass die Länge des Ein- und Ausstiegsbereichs sowie die Anzahl der diesem zugeordneten, sich an den Plattformen vorbeibewegenden Fahrzeuge vergrößert werden. Insoweit als jedoch der bei den Passagieren bedingte Stress, insbesondere beim Einsteigen in die Fahrzeuge, betroffen ist, kann dieser nur dadurch vermindert werden, dass die Geschwindigkeit der sich an den Plattformen vorbei bewegenden Fahrzeuge noch weiter verringert wird.Insofar as the conveying capacity is concerned, it can be increased by increasing the length of the entry and exit area and the number of vehicles assigned to it and moving past the platforms. Insofar as the stress caused by the passengers, in particular when getting into the vehicles, is affected, this can only be reduced by further reducing the speed of the vehicles moving past the platforms.

Durch das Förderband wird für die Passagiere das Einsteigen in die Fahrzeugkabinen bzw. das Aussteigen aus diesen maßgeblich erleichtert.The conveyor belt makes it significantly easier for passengers to get into and out of the vehicle cabins.

Bekannte Seilbahnanlagen entsprechen jedoch deshalb nicht den Anforderungen eines erhöhten Komforts, da sich die Ein- und Ausstiegsbereiche außerhalb des Stationsgebäudes befinden, wodurch die Passagiere den außerhalb des Stationsgebäudes herrschenden klimatischen und akustischen Verhältnissen ausgesetzt sind. Der gegenständlichen Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, diesbezüglich eine maßgebliche Erhöhung des Komforts zu bewirken. Dies wird erfindungsgemäß dadurch erzielt, dass zwischen der Bewegungsbahn des mindestens einen Fahrzeuges und dem Ein- und Ausstiegsbereich für die Passagiere eine Abschirmung, insbesondere eine Wand, vorgesehen ist, durch welche die sich im Einstiegs- bzw. Ausstiegsbereich befindlichen Passagiere einerseits gegenüber den außerhalb des Stationsgebäudes herrschenden klimatischen Verhältnissen und andererseits gegenüber den durch den Betrieb der Seilbahnanlage verursachten akustischen Emissionen weitestgehend geschützt sind, und welche mit mindestens einer Öffnung ausgebildet ist, durch welche hindurch sich die Passagiere vom Einstiegsbereich zu der mindestens einen Fahrzeugkabine bzw. von dieser zum Ausstiegsbereich bewegen, wobei sich das Förderband innerhalb dieser mindestens einen Öffnung befindet und wobei es sich in Bewegungsrichtung des Fahrzeuges nur über einen Teil der Länge dieser mindestens einen Öffnung erstreckt.
Hierdurch wird gewährleistet, dass die Passagiere nicht den außerhalb des Stationsgebäudes herrschenden klimatischen und akustischen Verhältnissen ausgesetzt sind.However, known cable car systems do not meet the requirements for increased comfort, since the entry and exit areas are located outside the station building, as a result of which the passengers are exposed to the climatic and acoustic conditions prevailing outside the station building. The object of the invention is to bring about a significant increase in comfort in this regard. This is achieved according to the invention in that a shield, in particular a wall, is provided between the movement path of the at least one vehicle and the entry and exit area for the passengers, by means of which the passengers located in the entry or exit area are on the one hand compared to those outside the area Station building prevailing climatic conditions and on the other hand are largely protected from the acoustic emissions caused by the operation of the cable car system, and which is formed with at least one opening through which the passengers move from the boarding area to the at least one vehicle cabin or from this to the exit area, wherein the conveyor belt is located within this at least one opening and wherein it extends in the direction of movement of the vehicle only over part of the length of this at least one opening.
This ensures that the passengers are not exposed to the climatic and acoustic conditions prevailing outside the station building.

Vorzugsweise erstreckt sich das Förderband in Bewegungsrichtung des Fahrzeuges nur über angenähert zwei Drittel der Länge der mindestens einen Öffnung.The conveyor belt preferably extends in the direction of movement of the vehicle only over approximately two thirds of the length of the at least one opening.

Nach weiteren bevorzugten Merkmalen wird das Förderband mit der gleichen Geschwindigkeit wie das mindestens eine sich am Einstiegs- bzw. Ausstiegsbereich vorbei bewegende Fahrzeug bewegt. Insbesondere weist das Förderband eine Breite auf, welche zwischen der halben Länge und der gesamten Länge des Förderbandes liegt.According to further preferred features, the conveyor belt is moved at the same speed as the at least one vehicle moving past the entry or exit area. In particular, the conveyor belt has a width which is between half the length and the entire length of the conveyor belt.

Eine erfindungsgemäße Seilbahnanlage ist nachstehend anhand eines in der Zeichnung dargestellten Ausführungsbeispiels näher erläutert. Es zeigt:

FIG.1
eine Station einer erfindungsgemäßen Seilbahnanlage, in axonometrischer Darstellung.
A cable car system according to the invention is explained below with reference to an embodiment shown in the drawing. It shows:
FIG.1
a station of a cable car system according to the invention, in axonometric representation.

In FIG.1 ist eine Station einer Seilbahnanlage dargestellt, welche ein Stationsgebäude 1 aufweist. Die Seilbahnanlage ist mit einem Förderseil 2 ausgebildet, an welches längs der Strecke Fahrzeuge 3 mit Fahrzeugkabinen 30 angekuppelt sind. In den Stationen ist das Förderseil 2 über Umlenkscheiben 21 geführt. Mindestens eine der Umlenkscheiben 21 ist angetrieben. Das Förderseil 2 wird mit einer konstanten Geschwindigkeit von z.B. 7 m/sec bis 10 m/sec bewegt. Die Fahrzeuge 3 werden in Richtung des Pfeiles A bewegt.In FIG.1 A station of a cable car system is shown, which has a station building 1. The cable car system is designed with a conveyor cable 2, to which vehicles 3 with vehicle cabins 30 are coupled along the route. In the stations, the conveyor cable 2 is guided over deflection disks 21. At least one of the deflection disks 21 is driven. The conveyor cable 2 is moved at a constant speed of, for example, 7 m / sec to 10 m / sec. The vehicles 3 are moved in the direction of arrow A.

In der Station werden die Fahrzeuge 3, nachdem sie vom Förderseil 2 abgekuppelt worden sind, längs Führungsschienen 4 durch die Station hindurch bewegt. Nach der Abkupplung der Fahrzeuge 3 vom Förderseil 2 wird die Geschwindigkeit der Fahrzeuge 3 mittels Verzögerungsreifen 41 auf etwa 0,3 m/sec vermindert. Mit dieser Geschwindigkeit werden die Fahrzeuge 3 mittels Förderreifen 42 am Einstiegs- und Ausstiegsbereich für die Passagiere vorbei bewegt. In der Folge wird die Geschwindigkeit der Fahrzeuge 3 mittels Beschleunigungsreifen 43 auf die Geschwindigkeit des Förderseiles 2 erhöht, worauf die Fahrzeuge 3 wieder an das Förderseil 2 angekuppelt werden.In the station, the vehicles 3, after they have been uncoupled from the conveyor cable 2, along guide rails 4 through the station moved through. After the vehicles 3 have been uncoupled from the conveyor cable 2, the speed of the vehicles 3 is reduced to approximately 0.3 m / sec by means of deceleration tires 41. At this speed, the vehicles 3 are moved past the boarding and alighting area for the passengers by means of conveyor tires 42. As a result, the speed of the vehicles 3 is increased to the speed of the conveyor cable 2 by means of acceleration tires 43, whereupon the vehicles 3 are coupled to the conveyor cable 2 again.

Die Passagiere befinden sich zum Einsteigen in die Fahrzeugkabinen 30 bzw. nach dem Aussteigen aus diesen im Einstiegs- bzw. Ausstiegsbereich 11, welcher sich innerhalb des Stationsgebäudes 1 befindet.
Das Stationsgebäude 1 ist gegenüber der Bewegungsbahn der Fahrzeuge 3 durch eine Wand 12 abgeschlossen, welche sich unmittelbar neben der Bewegungsbahn der Fahrzeugkabinen 30 befindet. In dieser Wand 12 ist eine Öffnung 13 vorgesehen, durch welche hindurch die Passagiere vom Einstiegsbereich 11 in die Fahrzeugkabinen 30 hineingelangen bzw. aus den Fahrzeugkabinen 30 heraus in den Ausstiegsbereich 11 gelangen.The passengers are in the vehicle cab 30 or after getting out of it in the boarding or alighting area 11, which is located inside the station building 1.
The station building 1 is closed off from the movement path of the vehicles 3 by a wall 12 which is located directly next to the movement path of the vehicle cabins 30. In this wall 12 there is an opening 13 through which the passengers can get into the vehicle cabin 30 from the boarding area 11 or get out of the vehicle cabin 30 into the boarding area 11.

Durch die Wand 12 wird erzielt, dass die sich im Einstiegs- bzw. Ausstiegsbereich 11 befindlichen Passagiere einerseits gegenüber den außerhalb des Stationsgebäudes 1 herrschenden klimatischen Verhältnissen und andererseits gegenüber den durch den Betrieb der Seilbahnanlage verursachten akustischen Emissionen weitestgehend geschützt sind.The wall 12 ensures that the passengers in the boarding or alighting area 11 are largely protected against the climatic conditions prevailing outside the station building 1 and secondly against the acoustic emissions caused by the operation of the cable car system.

Da der Abstand zwischen der Wand 12 und den Fahrzeugkabinen 30 nur einige Zentimeter betragen kann, sind die Passagiere beim Besteigen oder beim Verlassen der Fahrzeugkabinen 30 gegenüber klimatischen und akustischen Beeinträchtigungen geschützt.Since the distance between the wall 12 and the vehicle cabins 30 can only be a few centimeters, the passengers are protected against climatic and acoustic impairments when climbing on or leaving the vehicle cabins 30.

Im Bereich der Öffnung 13 befindet sich ein Förderband 10, welches mit einer zumindest angenähert gleichen Geschwindigkeit wie die Fahrzeuge 3, somit z.B. mit einer Geschwindigkeit von 0,3 m/sec, in der gleichen Richtung wie die Fahrzeuge 3 bewegt wird. Die Passagiere, welche die Fahrzeugkabinen 30 betreten wollen, betreten somit vorerst das Förderband 10. Sobald sie sich auf dem Förderband 10 befinden, werden sie mit der angenähert gleichen Geschwindigkeit wie die Fahrzeugkabinen 30 bewegt, wodurch sie ohne jeglichen Stress die Fahrzeugkabinen 30 betreten können. Dies gilt insbesondere für in ihrer Beweglichkeit eingeschränkte Passagiere. Gleiches gilt auch für diejenigen Passagiere, welche die Fahrzeugkabinen 30 verlassen. Da das Betreten bzw. Verlassen des Förderbandes 10 einfacher ist als das Besteigen der Fahrzeugkabinen 30 durch deren Türöffnung hindurch, können hierdurch die Geschwindigkeiten der Fahrzeuge 3 und des Förderbandes 10 vergrößert werden, wodurch auch eine Vergrößerung der Förderkapazität der Seilbahnanlage erzielbar ist.In the area of the opening 13 there is a conveyor belt 10, which is moved at least approximately the same speed as the vehicles 3, thus for example at a speed of 0.3 m / sec, in the same direction as the vehicles 3. The passengers driving the vehicle cabins 30 want to enter, thus first enter the conveyor belt 10. As soon as they are on the conveyor belt 10, they are moved at approximately the same speed as the vehicle cabins 30, as a result of which they can enter the vehicle cabins 30 without any stress. This applies in particular to passengers with restricted mobility. The same also applies to those passengers who leave the vehicle cabins 30. Since entering or leaving the conveyor belt 10 is easier than climbing into the vehicle cabins 30 through their door opening, the speeds of the vehicles 3 and the conveyor belt 10 can thereby be increased, whereby an increase in the conveying capacity of the cable car system can also be achieved.

Vorzugsweise erstreckt sich das Förderband 30 innerhalb der Öffnung 13 nur über einen Teil der Länge der Öffnung 13, wodurch Kollisionen der Passagiere mit der in Förderrichtung befindlichen Stirnwand der Öffnung 13 vermieden werden. Vorzugsweise beträgt dabei die Länge des Förderbandes 10 etwa 50 % bis 80 %, insbesondere 70 %, der Länge der Öffnung 13.The conveyor belt 30 preferably extends within the opening 13 only over part of the length of the opening 13, as a result of which collisions of the passengers with the end wall of the opening 13 located in the conveying direction are avoided. The length of the conveyor belt 10 is preferably approximately 50% to 80%, in particular 70%, of the length of the opening 13.
