Abstract: A cable transportation system with at least one haul cable has a supporting structure with a tubular portion defining an axis of rotation; a pulley extending about the axis of rotation; and a bearing assembly, which is connected to the pulley and the tubular portion to enable the pulley to rotate about the axis of rotation with respect to the supporting structure, and has a first and second bearing arranged concentrically and in series, so as to ensure rotation of the pulley about the axis of rotation and with respect to the supporting structure utilizing at least the first or second bearing.

Abstract: A cable transportation system cable return pulley has a hub, which is configured to rotate about an axis of rotation and has a plurality of lateral coupling sides lying along respective coplanar straight lines crosswise to the axis of rotation; and a main body, which is coupled to the hub, has an annular seat configured to house the cable, and a quantity of sectors equal to the quantity of lateral coupling sides of the hub, and wherein each sector is coupled to the hub and to the adjacent sectors solely along two of the straight lines.
