A Förderkorb, also called a Fördergestell or simply Gestell, Fördergerippe, Schachtschale or, especially in Austrian mines, Förderschale, is a hoisting device used in mining to transport material and the mineral resources extracted underground. Förderkörbe are built so that they can accommodate the mine cars used for haulage in the drifts. As a rule, Förderkörbe are also used for man-riding (Seilfahrt).
