Abstract: A chair for chairlifts includes a pivotal installation that can pivot into a closed position and an open position, a locking element of the installation, and a blocking element for the locking element. The blocking element is movable into a blocking position and into a releasing position. A control element allows the blocking element to be moved from the blocking position and the installation to be opened. A chairlift and a method for activating a pivotable installation are also provided.

Abstract: A device for locking a pivotal protective device, such as a safety bracket or a weather protection hood, of a chair for a chairlift. The device has interacting projections, one of which is connected to a frame of the chair and the other of which is connected to the protective device. At least one of the projections is resiliently mounted, and the projections are equipped with sliding surfaces which produce a deformation of the resilient bracket after a defined force has been applied to the safety bracket and allow the projections to slide past one another in both directions.

Abstract: A clamp for a cable-drawn transport device includes clamp jaws having a clamp spine and clamping tongues adjoining the clamp spine. The clamp spine and the clamping tongues form running surfaces for rollers. In the longitudinal direction, the clamping tongues have a substantially S-shaped curved running surface, which merges continuously into the running surface of the clamp spine.
