  • Patent number: 11207605
    Abstract: A mechanical assemblage similar to a traditional zipline, where a wheeled cart travels with the assistance of gravity along a guide cable strung between two points. However, this new system allows the cart to travel further, along multiple segments of guide cable and track, connected to each other by an unique attachment system which allows the cart to travel unabated, from cable to track and back to cable, by allowing the mounting attachments for the track segments to pass through an opening in the side of the cart and then close the opening to make it impossible for the guide cable to escape the cart, while riding on the guide cable. This is the most compact, simple and highly functional solution yet presented for genuine cable and track zipline system able to function with only the potential energy of gravity.
