MODULAR MOBILE ROPEWAY Russian patent published in 2024 - IPC B61B7/00 

FIELD: transportation.

SUBSTANCE: proposed invention relates to handling machine building, specifically to devices based on suspended cable systems for rapid mobile deployment of freight and passenger ropeways in unequipped and hard-to-reach areas, when it is necessary to create temporary or seasonal transportation facilities, to eliminate natural or man-made emergencies with transportation to the deployment site mainly by means of aircraft delivery vehicles (helicopters). Modular mobile ropeway comprises drive and tension rope pulleys, end and intermediate supports with process equipment to ensure their operation during ropeway operation, as well as enveloping rope pulleys and supported by intermediate supports closed tension bearing rope with towing devices for fastening of transported cargo. It differs by the fact that the design of the modular mobile ropeway consists of a set of independent process modules as part of the end drive station module, the end tensioning station module, the intermediate supports modules and the power module, wherein the equipment included in the structure of each module for its transfer from the transport position to the working position and back and for its operation is fixed on an individual base in the form of a bearing frame structure, to which by means of quick-release connections detachable side casings are attached, forming in transport position enclosing closed structure around module equipment, and in the working position they are removed, providing free access to the module equipment.

EFFECT: disclosed is a modular mobile ropeway for rapid deployment in unequipped and hard-to-reach areas.
