ABSTRACT:
A transportation system includes a continuously moving traction cable; a plurality of carriers connectable to and disconnectable from the traction cable; a station for receiving, loading, unloading and dispatching the carriers; an uncoupling zone at the entrance side of the station for disconnecting each carrier from the traction cable; a coupling zone at the exit side of the station for reconnecting each carrier to the traction cable; an unloading zone and a loading zone situated between the uncoupling and coupling zones; a transfer rail assembly extending from the uncoupling zone to the coupling zone through the unloading and loading zones for guiding the disconnected carriers; and additional unloading zone and an additional loading zone situated between the uncoupling and coupling zones at a level different from that where the first-mentioned unloading and loading zones are located; an additional transfer rail assembly connecting the additional unloading and loading zones with one another; and a conveyor assembly connecting the uncoupling zone with the additional unloading zone and connecting the additional loading zone with the coupling zone.
