ABSTRACT:
A brake apparatus with variable braking force for cable cars having a brake mount or housing connectable with a cable car by a connection shaft and including at least one pressure released catch brake. The catch brake has brake jaws which can be applied with a predetermined brake pressure to a guide track of the cable car, and a brake release for releasing the brake jaws in counter action to the brake pressure. Also provided is a first brake release pressure generator connected with the brake release, an actuable brake applying device connected with the brake release; at least one brake force measuring device coupling the brake mount with the connection shaft for ascending travel of the cable car and at least one other brake force measuring device coupling the brake mount with the connection shaft for descending travel. Finally, a control system controlled by the brake force measuring devices via a brake force balance, with the control system including a second brake release pressure generator controlled by the brake force measuring devices and operatively connected with the brake release in place of the first brake release pressure generator when the applying device is actuated.
