Abstract
An aerial cableway for transferring personnel/goods between a vessel and a fixed installation at sea, consisting of a support cable stretched between the vessel and the fixed installation. A winch provided with a slippage device maintains constant tension in the support cable which, by means of a securing member, is releasably attached to a complementary securing member on the vessel. A gondola is suspended from a trolley on the support cable. A pulling line attached to the trolley controls hauling the gondola up and down the support cable between the vessel and the fixed installation by means of a pulling winch on the fixed installation. The fixed installation is provided with an outrigger at the outer end of which the securing member for the support cable is fastened so as to be able to be raised and lowered by means of a hoisting cable which is maneuverable from the fixed installation. A drop line is attached to the securing member which, when the securing member and thus also the support cable have been hoisted into an elevated, not-in-use position, hangs down toward the surface of the sea, where it can be picked up by a wessel for establishing an aerial cableway.
