Tracks are arranged on the floor of the entry region of a station of the chair lift, the tracks running below and in accordance with the path of movement of the seats of the chair and being substantially identical in width to the corresponding seats. If the graphical design of the tracks is identical to the graphical design of the corresponding seat, the effect of the chair is reinforced by the unambiguous visual relationship between the track and seat. | 04-15-2010 |
20100089279 | CHAIR FOR A CHAIR LIFT AND CHAIR LIFT - Tracks are arranged on the floor of the entry region of a station of the chair lift, the tracks running below and in accordance with the path of movement of the seats of the chair and having a substantially equal width with the corresponding seats. The seat part and/or the backrest of a seat differ/differs with regard to the graphical design from the seat part and/or backrest of an adjacent seat. It is therefore made clear to the passengers, in particular children, how the seat division on the chair has been conceived by the manufacturer and where to stand in the entry region in order to be correctly seated on an approaching seat. If the graphical design of the tracks is identical to the graphical design of the corresponding seat, the effect of the chair according to the invention is reinforced by the unambiguous visual association between the track and seat. | 04-15-2010 |
