Abstract: A self-damping carrier basket pivot connection for a carrier basket transporter system having cars configured to travel along a pathway, at least some of which have a carrier basket pivotally connected thereto. The pivot connection includes a support connection configured for attachment a car. The support connection has at least three connection rollers that define a circular envelope and a mating connection configured to be attached to a back support of the carrier basket. The mating connection includes a housing with a part circular track that generally corresponds to or is larger than the circular envelope such that the rollers can be located within the part circular track. The part circular track includes at least one inwardly directed protrusion.

Abstract: A stabilized carrier basket trolley for a transporter system, the trolley has two cars on the track, on a first side of a support plate and pivotable relative thereto. A distance between the cars changes during traversal of curves and a center of the trolley moves relative to the track towards the inside of a curve. A carrier basket is pivotably connected on the support plate and pivots about a pivot axis. The trolley includes a gear mechanism for actively compensating a moment acting on the carrier basket during traversal of curves that includes a drive wheel drivingly connected to a first gear rotatably mounted on the support plate, and a second gear, meshing with the first gear, non-rotatably connected to the carrier basket. The drive wheel comes into contact with a side of the track upon movement of the center of the trolley relative to the track.
