Abstract
A lifting system for lifting and/or lowering loads having a lifting apparatus which is suitable for conveying loads along a lifting direction from a first transfer position into a second transfer position and along a lowering direction from the second transfer position to the first transfer position, and a conveyor apparatus which is suitable for taking on, at the first and/or the second transfer position, the loads conveyed by the lifting apparatus. The conveyor apparatus has at least one holding pendulum which is pivotable into a holding position, wherein the lifting apparatus has at least one holding receptacle for the holding pendulum, wherein the holding pendulum, in the holding position, can be placed in engagement with the holding receptacle, by a movement of the holding receptacle in the lowering direction, such that a movement of the lifting apparatus in the lowering direction is blocked, and/or the holding pendulum, in the holding position, can be placed in engagement with the holding receptacle, by a movement of the holding receptacle in the lifting direction, in such a way that a movement of the lifting apparatus in the lifting direction is blocked. The holding receptacle has a first guide track, wherein the first guide track is designed so as, during a movement of the holding receptacle along the lifting direction or the lowering direction, to move the holding pendulum into a first position in which the holding pendulum cannot be placed in engagement with the holding receptacle.
