ABSTRACT:
Vehicles of a passenger transport installation are hauled along a track by a traction cable. Each vehicle is equipped with a detachable grip having a pair of jaws for clamping the traction cable. A grip control mechanism comprises a toggle device with a spring, arranged so as to exert a cable clamping force when the toggle is in the straightened position, further to the dead center position. The toggle device provides a safe lock against accidental opening movement of the jaws.
