Abstract (en)

[origin: EP2740706A1] The transport apparatus has a transport vehicle with a drive portion (3) and a rope (5) mounted at two points. The transport vehicle is moved along the rope by the drive portion. The rope at one point is flexibly clamped by a movable bearing, and/or is provided with a control mechanism which automatically corrects a deflection of the rope. The rope at one point is attached to the movable bearing, and at another point is attached to the fixing anchors. An independent claim is included for a method for moving transport vehicle.
