Inclined shaft personnel vehicles are specialized vehicles designed for transporting personnel in inclined shafts. To ensure the safety of personnel during lifting, the hoisting machine should be equipped with two sets of braking devices. Each inclined shaft personnel vehicle must have a reliable rope-breaking protection device to safely brake the vehicle on the track in the event of a steel rope or connecting component failure.

It is a safety equipment for personnel transport in mine inclined shafts. It can self-brake or be manually operated in case of rope breakage or accidents. Suitable for 600mm gauge tracks with a weight of 18-24 kg/m, wooden sleepers, concrete sleepers, and concrete ballast tracks, with an inclination angle of 10-40 degrees.

According to different braking forms, they can be divided into XRC (pawl type) and XRB (clamp type) two types.
