  • Publication number: 20250187636
    Abstract: An arrangement for equipotential bonding of a support cable of a cableway that does not lose its effect even in the event of possible slight movements of the support cable. The arrangement includes an insert recess on the plastics material insert of a guide part for the support cable, through which insert recess an electrically conductive contact element is inserted, and the contact element is movably arranged in the insert recess. A spring element is provided that presses the electrically conductive contact element against the support cable so that the electrically conductive contact element contacts the support cable guided on the plastics material insert with a contact surface. The electrically conductive contact element is electrically connected to an equipotential bonding point of the cableway.

  • Patent number: 9475503
    Abstract: A cableway system for the transport of persons or goods has two pairs of track cables, which extend between two terminal stations, such as a valley station and a mountain station. Transport vehicles, such as gondolas, are moved along the track cables by at least one traction cable. The track cables run in a curved path in the region of at least one tower and the traction cable is guided in the region of the at least one tower via carrying rollers. At least some of the carrying rollers for the traction cable, which are located in the region of the at least one tower, are adjustable in terms of their position in relation to the two track cables.
