Funicular system of rail and running cable type, in particular for urban transport, of the type in which the vehicles are provided with a movable jaw clamp for their coupling to and release from said running cable

摘要

In order to operate both arms (21, 22) of the clamp (15) with the same force and at the same time, the guide carrier element (23), which comprises two longitudinal surfaces (26, 36) on which the free ends of the movable jaws (41, 42) slide, is formed in one piece and can move vertically transverse to said free end so as to be instantaneously and automatically self-centering about them and hence about the clamp (15).
