Embodiment Construction

[0040] The present invention relates to a hybrid cable / rail transport system, methods of operation of related systems, and cabins of such systems configured to travel along the entire system.

[0041] Particularly, figure 1 is a schematic diagram of part of a hybrid cable / rail transport system (indicated with reference numeral 1 ) according to the invention. The figure shows a system part configured as a cable transport system (identified with reference number 2 ) and a system part configured as a rail transportation system (identified with reference number 4 ). These two different system configurations are combined with each other at an intermediate platform 18 in which the cabin 6 supports entry in one way and exit in another. Arrows A and B show how the direction of travel of the system can be oriented interchangeably to go from cable support to rail support or vice versa according to the invention. Obviously, the system can be of the "round trip" type with only one ascen...

Abstract

A hybrid cable / rail transportation system (1) comprising: at least one system portion configured as a cable transportation system (2) comprising at least one cable (3); at least one system portion configured as a rail transportation system (4) comprising at least one rail (5), wherein the system portion configured as a cable transportation system (2) is upstream and / or downstream of the system portion configured as a rail transportation system (4); a plurality of transportation units (13), wherein each transportation unit (13) comprises a cabin (6); wherein each cabin (6) is configured for being moved along the entire system, respectively supported hanging from the cable (3) along the system portion configured as a cable transportation system (2) and supported resting on the rail (5) alongthe system portion configured as a rail transportation system (4).

Description

[0001] Cross References to Related Applications [0002] This patent application claims priority from Italian patent application 102018000004362 filed on April 10, 2018, the entire disclosure of which is incorporated herein by reference. technical field [0003] The invention relates to a delivery system. In particular, the invention relates to a hybrid cable / rail transport system in which transport units travel along successively found paths (cable system parts and rail system parts) without transport interruptions. The term "without transport interruption" means that passengers do not have to descend from a transport unit and onto another transport unit at the end of a cable system section to travel on a rail system section. However, the absence of transport interruptions does not mean that transport units cannot stop at stops provided along the path. [0004] Furthermore, the invention relates to a transport unit configured for use in the hybrid cable / rail transport syste...
