Justification and analysis of the principle of ensuring the universality of the airmobile rope units overall dimensions in transport condition

The use of airmobile rope units for deployment or relocation to a new place of operation of mobile ropeways allows you to flexibly use the capabilities of modern types of cargo transport – air, road, rail and water. The article proposes and analyzes fourteen pos-sible alternative options for the technology of relocation of airmobile rope units, characterized by a different combination and alternation of the use of possible types of vehicles, taking into account the geographical and relief features of the region, technical, organizational and economic opportunities, as well as the territorial location of transport infrastructure (networks of roads or railways, waterways, the presence of airports or heli-copter sites, etc.). The principle of ensuring the universality of the overall dimensions of airmobile rope units in transport condition was also formulated and justified. Its observance in the design of airmobile rope units provides both flexibility in the development of technology for the delivery of mobile ropeway equipment to the place of their operation, and flexibility in the mantling or dismantling of the specified equipment at the operation place. Based on the analysis of the technical characteristics of universal transport containers ISO series 1 and universal aviation containers used in aircraft of domestic and foreign manufacturers, recommendations are formulated on the choice of overall dimensions of airmobile rope units in transport condition, which it is advisable to focus on when designing and assembling the main and related technological equipment of mobile ropeways.
