Rellerli gondola
The Rellerli gondola lift was a 2080 meter long gondola lift from the village of Schönried to the northwestern Rellerligrat in the Swiss canton of Bern . On January 6, 2019, the train ran for the last time.
The valley station of the detachable 6-seater gondola lift, which was built by the Habegger machine factory in Thun , is located at 1242 m. ü. M .; the mountain station at 1830 m. ü. M. The system had a maximum speed of 4 m / s, the travel time at maximum speed was approximately 9 minutes. The transport capacity with the highest possible number of equipment (maximum number of vehicles allowed on the route) was 1200 people per hour.
A special feature of the Rellerli gondola lift was a curve support (deflection by means of inclined rollers, as is common with ski lifts and chairlifts, among others), which was noticeable from a distance due to its wave-like shape. It was equipped with the Giovanola gravity clamp, which is usual for railways from the manufacturer Habegger, but was one of the few systems of the manufacturer in which the drive and tension pulley come to lie horizontally. The cabins were transported in the stations by the usual rubber belt accelerators or retarders and chain conveyors.
