A Zillertal ski lift, also called back earrings or Zillertal T-bar, is a mechanical system to transport skiers up the mountain, above the surface of the slope. Usually it is used in gentle slopes in large ski resorts. The system consists of a steel cable suspended at a height that forms a closed loop for circulating a series of attached to a series of metal towers at mountainside wheels, and is driven by a motor. The cable are fixed number of retractable cables hanging from it, each of the individual cables has at its lower end a U-shaped bar inverted (or anchor) that is approximately one meter in each dimension. The horizontal bar is placed behind the skier's buttocks, which has its skiis. Thus, the skier is gliding over the snow pulled forward and up the slope by the force that is transmitted to your hip. Each bar can carry one or two people. The Zillertal ski lift in the true sense of the cable cars belonging Zillertal T-bar lift, a device for the carriage of passengers based on their skis or other sporting equipment (snowboard, short skis, Firngleiter, Skibob drive) on the ground and be pulled by a towing device uphill. The lifts in summer but can also be used to carry other occupied with their users exercise equipment ( summer toboggan, mountain bikes, Big Foot Roller, Bull carts, grass-skiing ). In bikeparks also drag lifts are intended for the carriage of mountain bikers in addition to other cable cars used occasionally in summer toboggan run is a leading upwards Track Path (tub or Coaster rail) case by case basis on the lift route fixed or removable installed. The first motorized ascent help at all was on the Boedele in Vorarlberg, Austria built in 1907 and went into operation. Of course, this construction was not to be compared with a modern Zillertal ski lift today - it was rather a sort of carriage, which according to the principle of a winch was pulled up the hill by a rope from a motor. A working principle, which is mainly in Switzerland for decades should be used. Until the 1940s there was used sled funiculars, called "Funi". The use of a Zillertal T-bar lift requires a good balance of power and in pairs, transport a certain amount of skill and experience, driving with drag lifts on steep routes can be more demanding than for example a ride on a chairlift. Their advantage is mainly the cost structure, which is reflected in solitary lifts in the transport rates. In the early days of drag lifts were faster than chairlifts and thus were able to carry more passengers in the same time uphill and the skiers had to queue for so long before they could be taken. In drag lifts a high-strength steel cable runs (revolving conveyor rope) in about three to four meters in height where Clamping yoke are mounted on a retractable cord. A distinction platter lifts with platter lift for one person (usually on nursery slopes) or bar lifts in the short or long versions for two people. An early, simple version of the drag lift was the pendulum drag lift, in which only two hangers were attached to the Rope. This commuted - similar to gondolas an aerial tramway - between entry and exit without station run back and forth, the direction of the facility was changed after each ascent. The Zillertal is a southern tributary of the Inn valley in the Austrian state of Tyrol. Unlike other Tyrolean valleys Zillertal overcomes no valley slopes and rises of Strass im Zillertal (522 m) to Mayrhofen (628 m) only slightly to. Between Aschau and Zell am Ziller, the valley narrows to about half the width (front and rear Zillertal). The high mountain Zillertal Alps Nature Park occupies 35% of the Zillertal. Politically, the Zillertal is part of the district of Schwaz. About 9% of the total area of permanent settlement. The Zillertal has an inner alpine Talk Lima and is located in the transition zone from the dry climate of the Ötztal and Stubai Alps to the wetter the Zillertal Alps and Hohe Tauern. Typical are a strong temperature amplitude, lots of sun in the winter, light winds and hardly any fog. The mean annual precipitation in Zell am Ziller is 1070 mm.
