[0023] The specific details of this utility model are further described below:

[0024] This utility model relates to a multi-functional hanging chair for aerial passenger transport. The top is a cable holder, which is placed on the steel wire rope of the aerial passenger transport device; the middle part is the upper pole 2, which is made of round tube to reduce its own weight.

[0025] The upper pole 2 is divided into an upper curved section and a lower straight section. The curved section avoids the steel wire rope and related installation components. The cable grip is located directly above the straight section, and the handle 3 is located on the straight section for passengers to hold onto. Furthermore, it is covered with a non-slip leather sleeve.

[0026] The lower part of the upper pole 2 is provided with a lower pole 6 facing forward and backward. The front end of the lower pole 6 is a footrest 5 for passengers to place their feet. The rear end of the lower pole 6 is provided with a passenger seat 4 for passengers to sit on. It is covered with leather and padding to improve riding comfort.

[0027] The front end of the lower bar 6 bends downward to accommodate the height of the human lower limbs.

[0028] As a further implementation, the bottom of the upper rod 2 is connected to the top of the connecting shaft via a transverse hinge, and a sleeve is fitted on the lower part of the connecting shaft, which is welded to the side of the lower rod 6.

[0029] A support plate 14 is provided at the lower part of the connecting shaft. The edge of the support plate 14 is provided with a limiting groove 15. The rear end of the lower rod 6 is connected to the mounting bracket 7. A flip plate 8 is hinged at the rear position of the lower rod 6 where it is connected to the connecting shaft. The flip plate 8 is embedded in the limiting groove 15 of the support plate 14 to restrict the rotation between the lower rod 6 and the connecting shaft. The connecting shaft can be flipped between the upper rod and the hinge.

[0030] As a further embodiment, a transverse sleeve is provided at the top of the upper rod 2, and a bushing 9 is provided inside the transverse sleeve. The cable gripper is inserted into the bushing 9, and the cable gripper 1 can rotate inside the bushing 9.
