ROPEWAY WITH MECHANOTRONIC PROPULSORS Russian patent published in 2014 - IPC B61B7/00 

FIELD: transport.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to conveyance systems. Proposed ropeway comprises poles equipped with mechanotronic propulsors and stations interconnected by one and more pull and bearing steel ropes with cabs or seats suspended therefrom to be driven by pull rope. Steel pull rope incorporates permanent magnets discretely built in rope organic core while magnetic data control and readout pickups are mounted at said poles. Mechanotronic propulsors consist of controlled drive motors and control modules connected with primary control module. Every control module consists of motor load and rpm transducers, magnetic data control pickup, comparators, amplifiers, ADCs, amplification-conversion unit, control and actuation elements, transmitter and receiver and modular microcontroller.

EFFECT: uniform distribution between lines, higher reliability and safety.
