  • Publication number: 20200079401
    Abstract: A system, method and device for moving gondola cabins in a single vertical loop so as to pass above and below with end stations turning wheels placed vertically. The hauling ropes operate in a vertical loop and permit the vertical circulation of the cabins between stations with passenger boarding and deboarding of the cabins in the stations at two different levels. The system may be twinned to provide two parallel, horizontally adjacent systems operating on common towers to double the capacity of a single system. Both the single and twinned systems possess a smaller footprint than conventional horizontal transport systems.
