The Inclined Shaft Personnel Carrier (Man-Riding Car) is a specialized transportation vehicle designed for the safe and efficient movement of personnel in underground mines and inclined shafts. It operates on rail tracks installed in inclined tunnels and is widely used in coal mines, metal mines, non-metal mines, and underground engineering projects.
Built with a robust steel structure, advanced braking systems, and a comfortable passenger compartment, the vehicle ensures reliable operation under demanding underground conditions while maximizing worker safety and transportation efficiency.
