Abstract: In order to enhance the safety of a cableway, in particular when a cable car passes through a cableway support of the cableway, according to the present teaching a detection device having at least one evaluation unit and at least two sensors connected to the evaluation unit is provided on at least one cableway support. A first sensor is located in the entry area of the cableway support in order to detect the presence of a cable car in a detection area of the first sensor. A second sensor is located in the exit area of the cableway support in order to detect the presence of a cable car in a detection area of the second sensor. The detection device is provided in order to detect a number of cable cars between the first sensor and the second sensor and to generate a fault signal when the detected number exceeds a predefined maximum number.

Abstract: For reliable detection of the wear on a cable sheave of a cable car system, the distance between a cable sensor and a hoisting cable is measured when the cable car system is at a standstill and the wear on the at least one cable sheave is deduced from the distance measured at a standstill.

Abstract: An inductive sensor insusceptible to external electromagnetic fields. The sensor coil is designed so as to have a first winding part and a second winding part connected thereto, the first winding part and the second winding part being wound in opposite directions. The first winding part is connected to a first coil terminal and the second winding part is connected to a second coil terminal.

Abstract: An electronic wristwatch operable in two power modes. The wristwatch has an inertial sensor for detecting a gesture on a cover glass of the wristwatch. A touch panel is provided underneath the cover glass for detecting the gesture. Gesture detection by the inertial sensor is combined with gesture detection by the touch panel for triggering a switch from a first power mode to a second power mode.
