Abstract: A photovoltaic system having a cable or cable bundle, includes at least one photovoltaic module. The photovoltaic module is suspended from the cable or cable bundle, wherein the center of gravity of the photovoltaic module is below the cable or cable bundle, and wherein the photovoltaic module swings relative to at least one pivot axis which is substantially parallel to the longitudinal extent of the cable or cable bundle, and the photovoltaic module has a rigidity which is sufficient to substantially maintain its shape even under load.

Abstract: A cable installation having a support structure, for example a rod or a support frame will be proposed, the latter or the former, being able to be hinged to abuses structure about a first axis, respectively, wherein at each end of the support structure a deviating roller is rotatably provided, which is provided for a cable which at one end is fixed to an area of the support structure while the other end of the cable is fixed to a second area of the base structure which is spaced apart from the first area.

Abstract: A system for conveying persons has at least one track along which a plurality of vehicles or groups of vehicles are moved by continuous conveying cables. At least two mutually successive conveying cables are arranged in line with one another and each has a drive so that they may be driven independently of one another. The vehicles are coupled to the cables with clamping devices. The clamping devices arranged on the vehicles spaced apart from one another in the longitudinal direction of the system. When there is a transfer of a vehicle from a first to the successive conveying cable, a control device uncouples at least the first clamping device, from the first conveying cable and thereupon couples it to the successive conveying cable. Then, a further clamping device is uncoupled from the first conveying cable and coupled to the successive conveying cable.
