A cable car system has vehicles which are coupled to a conveying cable between stations. The vehicles are decoupled from the conveying cable in the stations and are moved through the stations along guide rails. The vehicles are formed with current collectors and the stations have associated power rails. In at least one of the vehicles there is located a circuit with at least one electrical load which is supplied with electrical energy via the current collector and the power rails. At least one second circuit with at least one further electrical load is located in at least one vehicle. The second circuit is supplied with electrical energy via a single further current collector and a power rail assigned thereto. The two circuits are connected to a common current collector to which a single power rail is assigned.

Cable car system

An assembly for fastening a transportation device of a cableway system, such as a cabin or a chair, on a suspension bar, which is formed at its upper end with a running mechanism, with a coupling clamp, interacting with the conveying cable or traction cable of the cableway system, and with a guide roller, the transportation device also being provided at its upper end with a supporting device, by way of which it is articulated on the lower end of the suspension bar in a way allowing it to be pivoted transversely with respect to the conveying cable or traction cable. The articulation of the transportation device on the lower end of the suspension bar is formed by two links, which are located at a distance from each other transversely in relation to the conveying cable or traction cable and run obliquely upward in relation to each other, their free ends being articulated on the one hand on the supporting device and on the other hand on the lower end of the suspension bar.
