Abstract
A transport installation with a continuous running aerial rope supports chairs and gondola cars coupled by detachable grips. The rope extends in a closed loop between two bull-wheels, with an up-line and a down-line. The installation presents loading/unloading terminals provided at least at the ends of said lines. One of the terminals comprises a transfer circuit connecting the up-line and the down-line, with a slowing-down section equipped with a slowing-down device, a speeding-up section equipped with a propelling device, connected by a run-through section with a low running speed equipped with a driving device of the vehicles. The transfer circuit comprises a continuous running speed regulating section equipped with a speed regulating means that is able to vary the time required by the cars and the chairs to pass through the speed regulating section, to impose a first predetermined running speed of the cars and a second predetermined running speed of the chairs.
