Which component is the chassis attached to by a steel cable and pulley?

• A. Traveling Cable
• B. Overspeed Governor
• C. Steel Cable Drive
• D. AC/DC Motor

Answer: (C)

Motion transfer in a steel cable drive uses a steel cable attached to the chassis and guided around pulleys and a drive drum. As the drum turns, it winds or unwinds the cable, pulling the chassis along its guide rails. This setup directly links the chassis to the drive via the cable and pulley, converting rotational motion into linear movement. Traveling cables are just power conductors that move with the ride, not a mechanical link to move the chassis. The overspeed governor is a safety device that limits speed, not a drive connection. The AC/DC motor provides rotational power to the drive system, but the chassis-to-cable connection for motion comes from the steel cable drive arrangement.
