Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a regular interval operation method and apparatus for continuously maintaining the departure interval of carriages of an automatic circulation cableway at regular intervals.

An automatic circulation cableway connects pulleys installed at terminals (stops) at both ends, wraps an endless cable, and circulates the cable.The cable is gripped by a cable gripping machine equipped with a carrier. This is a transportation facility that carries out transportation by moving the carrier along with the movement of the rope. and,
At the terminal, the rope gripping machine roams the rope and is slowly transported by a forwarding device, and passengers are boarded and alighted during this forwarding.

On the other hand, in the case of a fixed circulation cableway, a cable gripping machine equipped with a carrier is semi-permanently fixed to the endless cable at predetermined intervals, and the cable is operated in a circular manner. Since there is no grasping and release, the interval once set is always maintained.
There is no possibility that the spacing will be disturbed.

However, in a fixed circulation cableway, the operating speed on the cableway line is the same as the operating speed inside the terminal, so there is a limit to the speed at which people can get on and off the carriers moving inside the terminal without danger.
This becomes an obstacle and the operating speed of the fixed circulation cableway cannot be increased beyond a certain limit.

However, in an automatic circulation cableway, the cable gripping machine is separated from the cable at the terminal and sent by a forwarding device at a slow speed suitable for boarding and alighting passengers, so the operating speed on the cableway track is limited to the speed required for boarding and alighting passengers. It is possible to freely select the speed without being restricted by the speed. This feature of the automatic circulation cableway has attracted attention,
In addition to cableways that use passenger cars, their use has recently expanded to include ski lifts that use open chair carriers, where fixed circulation cableways have traditionally been the mainstream.

However, although automatic circulation cableways have these characteristics, as mentioned above, the cables and cable grips are detachable, so unless special equipment is installed and regulated at the time of departure from the terminal, Unable to maintain constant spacing between carriers. If the spacing between the carriers is not regulated at a constant level, the spacing between the carriers may become uneven, and the carriers may be concentrated near specific points on the cable, causing problems with the strength and safety of the cable, or causing an imbalance in both the reciprocating lines of the cableway. This may occur and impair driving conditions. If the spacing between carriers becomes too sparse, there will be a surplus in the planned number of carriers, which may accumulate inside the terminal and impede operations.
This increases passenger waiting time and causes losses due to a decrease in transportation capacity. Therefore, regular interval operation is an important prerequisite for automatic circulation cableways.

Such a method or device for operating a carrier at regular intervals has been known, for example, as disclosed in Japanese Patent Publication No. 52-16609, "Minimum Departure Interval Automatic Regulating Device for Cable Holding Machines for Single-Line Automatic Circulation Type Passenger Cableway" 54−
17242 ``Minimum departure interval automatic regulation device for rope gripping machine for automatic circulation type passenger cableway'' JP 56-25048 ``Carrier departure control device for automatic circulation type cableway'' and others have been proposed and implemented. .

These proposals include regulating the distance between the carrier departing from the terminal and the preceding carrier at each terminal so that the carrier departs from the terminal by a certain distance or after a certain period of time, or in addition, The carriers are arranged in a line ready for departure.

In addition, the conventional method or device does not allow a carrier, which is separately provided with a spacing regulating device at both terminals, to depart from one terminal for an outbound trip, and when it departs for an inbound trip from another terminal. Each train departed after regulating the distance between them.

With such a method or device that regulates the departure interval at both terminals, for example, if there is a passenger boarding problem at one terminal and it is desired to temporarily suspend the departure of a carrier, the cableway operation can be stopped at one terminal without completely stopping. It has the advantage that it can be processed by itself. However, on the other hand, if it is not economical to install the device at both terminals, or if the distance or time settings of the regulating devices at both terminals are not exactly the same, the difference in departure intervals between the two terminals will repeatedly accumulate, resulting in Transporters were unevenly distributed in the area, and there was a fear that they would be backed up.

Therefore, such a conventional method or device is
It is often used for cableways used for passenger transportation as well as for relatively large-scale cableways.
It is not economical when used on cableways that are used for transporting passengers only in one direction, such as those that mainly transport skiers, or on relatively small-scale cableways, and it is desirable to develop a method or device that is simple in structure and reliable. was.

In response to these circumstances, the present invention provides a reliable device with a simple structure that is suitable not only for large-scale cableways but also for cableways used for transporting passengers only on one side and relatively small-scale cableways. The purpose of this study is to propose an economical method and device for operating an automatic circulation cableway at regular intervals.

Corresponding to this object, the present invention provides a carrier equipped with a rope grip, a cable circulating between pulleys of terminals at both ends, and a cable disposed in each of the carrier operating equipment, that is, the terminal, to operate the carrier. a forwarding device to forward the carrier from the arrival side to the departure side; an acceleration device disposed in each of the terminals to accelerate the carrier by intervening in the departure route of the carrier; and an accelerator device arranged in each of the terminals to accelerate the carrier; In an automatic circulation cableway in which transportation is carried out by moving the carrier as the cable circulates using a deceleration device that decelerates the carrier interposed in the route, the cable is connected to only one of the terminals at both ends. Using a regular interval transport device that regulates the regular intervals of the carrier and allows it to depart,
and a device in which the operating speed of each device of the carrier operation equipment and the operating speed of the cable are configured in an interlocking relationship to always maintain a proportional speed, and the vehicle is regulated by the constant interval forwarding device. The carrier is characterized in that the constant interval relationship between the carriers is maintained during one circulation of the carriers, and the carriers are operated so as to return in synchronization with the timing of rotation of the constant interval transport device.

The length of the cableway between A Terminal 10a and B Terminal 10b is usually several hundred meters or more, but in the drawing they are shown close together due to paper width, and there are many carriers on the cableway. However, only the carriage 2 is shown as a representative in the drawing.

First, the A terminal 10a will be explained.

When the carrier 2, which moves in the direction of the arrow 4 along with the cable 1 along the cableway, arrives at the A terminal 10a, the rope gripping machine 3 equipped on the carrier 2 ropes the cable 1 near the rope point 12a. Afterwards, it moves guided by a fixed rail 16a. The rail 16a is the radial point 12a

is accelerated from a slow speed to the operating speed of the cable 1.

Next, there is a transport device that transports the carrier 2 from near point 13b to near point 14b.
In 0b, a folding and forwarding device 50 is used. The return and forwarding device 50 is, for example, a transfer facility that is driven around a drive wheel 53 and configured in a circulation path shown by a dotted line from a point 13b, along a rail 16b, to a point 14b, and then back to the drive wheel 53. A plurality of engagement means 54 are provided at predetermined short intervals to transport the carrier 2 from the vicinity of the point 13b to the vicinity of the point 14b.

For example, the one shown in FIG. 4a is used as the regular interval feeding device 40 disposed in the A terminal 10a.

The constant interval feeding device 40 has a flexible traction band 41 wound endlessly along a guide rail 42 and circulated in the direction of an arrow 48 by a drive wheel 43. In addition, as shown in FIG. 1, the circulation route of the traction belt 41 passes around points 13a and 14a, and from around point 13a to point 14a it takes a route along rail 16a. Make it.

The traction belt 41 includes engagement means 44a, 44b for engaging with the suspension device 6 of the carrier 2 and transporting the carrier 2.
... A plurality of 44g are equipped, and the distance between one engagement means and the next engagement means (for example, 44a and 44b,
44b and 44c, . . . ) are set at each constant value P. Therefore, the developed total length of the traction band 41 is set to be an integral multiple of P.

As the traction band 41, for example, a chain can be used, and as the drive wheel 43, a sprocket wheel can be used, and the engaging means 44a, 44b...44

Notwithstanding the above-mentioned examples, it is also possible to use a steel cable, a belt, etc. as the traction band 41, and it is also possible to use a device equipped with other protrusions as the engagement means 44.

Note that the driving wheels 43 are driven by a driving means 49, which will be described later.

The return and forwarding device 50 disposed in the B terminal 10b has the following structure as shown in FIG. 5a.

The return and forwarding device 50 is configured such that a flexible traction band 51 is endlessly wound around a guide rail 52 and circulated in the direction of an arrow 57 by a drive wheel 53. In addition, the circulation route of the traction belt 51 is around point 13b and point 1 as shown in FIG.
4b, and takes a route along the rail 16b from point 13b to point 14b.

The traction belt 51 includes an engaging means 54a for engaging with the suspension device 6 of the carrier 2 and returning the carrier 2.
Equip multiple and large numbers of 54b, 54c...,
The interval between one engagement means and the next engagement means (for example, 54a and 54b, 54b and 54c, etc.) is as short as possible by adding the required gap K to the dimensions of the suspension device 6 to be engaged. is set to a constant value Q.

For example, a chain can be used as the traction belt 51, a sprocket wheel can be used as the drive wheel 53, and the engaging means 54a, 54b, 5

Notwithstanding the above-mentioned examples, it is also possible to use a steel cable, a belt, etc. in addition to a chain as the traction band 51, and it is also possible to use a device equipped with other protrusions as an engagement means.

The drive wheels 53 are driven by a driving means 59, which will be described later.

In the above description, the forwarding devices, that is, the constant interval forwarding device 40 and the return forwarding device 50, which are respectively installed in the terminals, and the deceleration devices 20a, 20b and the acceleration devices 30a, 30, which are installed in the terminals, respectively.
In this specification, these are collectively referred to as carrier operation equipment.

As mentioned above, the equipment for transport transport is equipped, but when operating these equipment, it is necessary to establish the following interlocking relationship with the operation of the cable. be.

First, in the A terminal 10a, the deceleration device 20a is driven by the driving means 29a, the acceleration device 30a is driven by the driving means 39a, the fixed interval forwarding device 40 is driven by the driving means 49, and in the B terminal 10b, the deceleration device 20b is driven by the driving means 39a. At 29b, the accelerator 30b is the driving means 39b and the forwarding device 5
0 is driven by the driving means 59, and the respective driving means 29a, 39a, 49,
The rotational speeds of 29b, 39b, and 59 are N1, N2, N3, N4, and N4, respectively, according to the required operating conditions of each device when the standard operating speed V of the cable 1 (the rotational speed N of the pulley 11a or 11b). Set to N5 and N6.

However, the operating speed of the cable is V′=k・V (pulley 1
1a or 11b), the operating means 29a,
The rotation speeds of 39a, 49, 29b, 39b, and 59 are N'1=k・N1, N′2=k・N2, N′3=k・N3, N′4=k・N4, N′5=k・N5, N′6=k・N6, In other words, it is necessary that the operating means 29a, 39a, 49, 29b, 39 of the transportation equipment
It is necessary that the rotational speeds of b and 59 are always in a proportional relationship with the cable speed V or the pulley rotational speed N, so that they are operated in synchronization with each other.

Such conditions are necessary in order to maintain constant intervals in the carriage operation even when the cableway is operated by changing the operating speed V to a desired value.

In order to achieve such a relationship, it can be realized by configuring a mechanical or electrical interlocking relationship, and an example will be shown below.

First, Fig. 6 a and b shows the case of mechanical movement.
I will explain.

FIG. 6a is a system diagram of connections for interlocking.

The cable 1 circulates between the pulley 11a and the pulley 11b, and in the A terminal 10a, the pulley 11
The rotation is taken out from a, mechanically transmitted to the gearbox GA, and further branched from there, and the rotation speed is reduced and increased to the required number for each device, and then sent to the deceleration device 20a, the acceleration device 30a, and at regular intervals. Rotation is transmitted to device 40.

Similarly, at B terminal 10b, pulley 1
The rotation is extracted from 1b and mechanically transmitted to the gearbox GB, which is further branched, and the number of rotations is reduced and increased to the required number for each device, and is then transferred to the deceleration device 20b, acceleration device 30b, and push-back forwarding device 5.
Transmit rotation to 0.

FIG. 6b explains the above in more detail, including the arrangement relationship.

That is, in the A terminal 10a, the pulley 11
Take out the rotation of a and use the chain transmission device CNA,
Connected to gearbox G1A, and from now on transmission shaft S
1A connects to gearbox G2A, and branches from here to each device to transmit rotation. That is, transmission shaft S2
A. Drives the reduction gear 20a via gearbox G3A (driving means 29a), drives accelerator 30a via transmission shaft S3A and gearbox G4A (driving means 39a), and drives transmission shaft S4A and gearbox G5A (driving means 49). device 4 for regular interval forwarding
0. Each conduction axis S1A, S2
For example, propeller shafts are used for A, S3A, and S4A, and gearboxes G1A, G2A, and G3 are used.
A, G4A, and G5A are used to change the direction of power transmission and to reduce or increase the rotational speed to a required number.

The B terminal 10b is also configured in exactly the same manner.

With this configuration, the number of rotations of the pulley 11a or 11b is in a proportional relationship with the operating speed of the cable 1, and therefore the operating speed of the carrier moving equipment is also in an interlocking relationship with the operating speed of the cable 1. can be kept.

Next, another example of an electrically interlocking relationship will be described.

Figure 7a is a system diagram of connections for interlocking,
FIG. 7b shows the arrangement relationship.

A cable 1 circulates between a pulley 11a and a pulley 11b. The A terminal 10a includes a roller RA that rotates following the cable 1, and the roller
By detecting the rotation speed of RA, the rope speed detector DRA sends a signal corresponding to the rope speed to the controllers C1A and C2.
A, sending it to C3A. The speed reducer 20a is driven by a variable speed electric motor M1A (operating means 29a), and the variable speed electric motor M1A is attached with an electric motor speed detector D1A.
The rotational speed of motor A is detected and a signal is fed back to controller C1A. The controller C1A compares the two input signals, and if there is a deviation, controls the variable speed electric motor M1A to make the rotation correspond to the cable speed. Similarly, in the case of the accelerator 30a, the cable speed detector DRA and the motor speed detector D2A
The controller C2A operates the variable speed motor M2A according to the signal of
(driving means 39a) to perform the drive, and also in the case of the constant interval feeding device 40, the rope detector
The controller C3A controls the variable speed motor M3A (operating means 49) by the signals of DRA and motor speed detector D3A.
is controlled and driven.

The B terminal 10b is also configured in the same manner as described above, using a roller RB and a rope speed detector DRB.

In this way, even if the electrical interlocking relationship is configured,
Each device can follow the operating speed of the cable 1 and operate at a proportional speed.

The constant interval relationship of the method for moving a carrier at constant intervals according to the present invention, which is carried out using the apparatus configured as described above, will be explained.

The speed of the rope and the transport device, the distance between the carriers,
The carrier intervals are as follows.

Operating speed of cable 1: V m/s Car interval in cable 1: S m Car interval in cable 1: T s Operating speed of constant interval forwarding device 40: v1 m/s Car interval in constant interval forwarding device 40 : s1 m Cargo time interval in constant interval forwarding device 40: t1 s Operating speed of return forwarding device 50: v2 m/s Cargo interval in return forwarding device 50: s2 m Cargo time interval in return forwarding device 50: t2 s Regular interval forwarding Pitch of engagement means 44 of device 40:
P m In addition, the operating speed of each forwarding device is determined to be slow compared to the normal cable speed, but the speed ratio is as follows.

i1=V/v1 i2=V/v2 When operating, depending on the configuration of the device described above,
Since the cable and each forwarding device are configured in an interlocking relationship, the preset relationship of V, v1, and v2 is always maintained as V=i1·v1=i2·v2. In addition, other deceleration devices and acceleration devices also maintain interlocking relationships in operation.

Furthermore, if one carrier 2 is engaged with each of the engaging means 44a, 44b, . is equal to the pitch of the engagement means 44. The carrier time interval at this time is t1 = s1/v1.

Next, the carriers 2 pass through the acceleration device 30a, grip the cables 1, and depart one after another onto the cableway. cable 1
The relationship between the preceding and following carriers in is the carrier time interval T
is maintained as T=t1, and the carrier interval becomes S=V·T=i1·v1·T=i1·s1, that is, the distance is i1 times the carrier interval s1 in the constant interval forwarding device 40.

Next, when the carrier reaches the B terminal 10b, wanders, enters the deceleration device 20b and decelerates, the return and forwarding device 50 has a plurality of engagement means 54a,
54b, . . . , any of the arriving carriers is captured and engaged with the appropriate engaging means without delay, and then transported back inside the B terminal 10b. Since the carrier is transported without delay in this manner, no time delay occurs, and therefore the carrier time interval is maintained at t2=T=t1. And the carrier spacing is s2=v2・t2=(1/i2)(V・T)=(1/i2)S or s2=(i1/i2)(v1・T)=(i1/i2)S1 .

Next, the carrier 2 is forwarded and guided by the turning and forwarding device 50, accelerated by the accelerator 30b, grips the cable 1, and enters the A terminal 1 into the cableway line.
Leave for 0a.

The carrier time interval between the preceding and following carriers in route 1 is T=t2=t1 The distance between the carriages is maintained at S=V・T=i2(v2・t2)=i2・s2 or S=i1(v1・T)=i1・s1 becomes.

After circulating in this way, the carrier is transferred to A terminal 10a.
The vehicle returns to , and the cable 1 is let go and deceleration is performed. At the point where deceleration is completed, that is, near point 13a in FIG. 1, the carrier becomes slow v1 or stops.

As mentioned above, during the circulation of the carrier, the time interval between the preceding and following carriers is maintained at T = t1 = t2, and when the carriers arrive at A terminal 10a, the time interval is constant and the time interval between the carriers is constant and the time interval between the preceding and following carriers is maintained. It slows down or stops.

Here, due to the rotational operation of the fixed interval forwarding device 40, the engaging means 44 advances from the rear of the carrier 2 in the direction of the arrow 48 in FIG. 1 or 4, captures and engages the carrier 2, and performs forwarding again. It is. The subsequent carriers are also simultaneously captured and engaged by the engaging means that advance one after another, and are sent to the departure side again, continuing the circulation operation at regular intervals.

In the above configuration, normally v1 = v2, but due to the relationship between the length of the cableway and the desired carriage spacing,
If the waiting time for the engaging means 44 to track the carrier 2 that has arrived near the point 16a is long, by setting the operating speed v2 of the return and forwarding device 50 to be somewhat higher or lower, the carrier 2 will move from the B terminal 10b to the A terminal 10a. Since the phase of advancement of the carrier can be advanced or delayed, the carrier that has completed deceleration or stopped near the point 13a is moved to the engaging means 44.
The timing of giving and receiving can be optimally adjusted by tracking and engaging.

In this explanation, each reduction gear 2 is used to simplify the explanation.
0a, 20b, and the respective accelerators 30a, 30b have been omitted in the explanation, but even if these devices are taken into account, the basic relationship between the carrier spacing and the carrier time limit remains unchanged as long as the interlocking relationship of the operations described above is maintained. Ru.

Next, a case where the operating speed V of the cable is changed or changed will be described.

As mentioned above, the operating speeds of the cable and the transport equipment are always linked to maintain a proportional relationship, so when the cable speed is, for example, 1/2 of the quasi-velocity V, the speed V′, v1 ′, v2′ and carrier time interval T, t1,
t2 and carrier spacing S, s1, s2 are as follows.

V'=V/2, v1'=v1/2, v2'=v2/2 T'=2T, t1'=2t1, t2'=2t2 S'=S, s1'=s1, s2'=s2 In other words, speed If is set to 1/2, the carrier interval will double, but the carrier interval will not change and will remain constant.

This relationship is always maintained without changing the carriage interval even when changing to other speeds.

No matter how the operating speed of the cable is changed in this way, the constant spacing relationship of the carriers that started with the constant interval regulation performed by the constant interval forwarding device is maintained during one cycle of the carrier, and the constant spacing relationship is maintained again during one cycle of the carrier. It returns to the interval feeding device, and this operation is repeated one after another,
Regular service will continue.

The effects and features of the method and apparatus for operating an automatic circulation type cableway carrier at regular intervals according to the present invention as described in detail above are as follows.

(A) At A terminal 10a, the carrier spacing s1,
The carriages circulate at intervals S in the cableway and at intervals s2 at the B terminal 10b, and, just like the circulation of carriages on a fixed circulation cableway, there is no disturbance in the progression of the carriages or stagnation, etc. Continuous and smooth circulation operation is possible.

(b) The relationship in (a) above is always maintained even if the operating speed is changed.

(c) Compared to the conventional system in which devices were installed at both terminals to control the spacing between carriers, the regulation is performed at only one location, the constant spacing device 40.
The structure is simple and economical.

(d) In the case of conventional spacing regulation at two locations,
If both interval regulations do not match exactly, there is a risk that the carriers will be unevenly distributed due to accumulation of errors, but this method does not cause this.

As described above, the operating method and device of the present invention greatly contributes to the safe and economical operation of the automatic circulation cableway.
