VEHICLE HAVING AN EDDY CURRENT BRAKE FOR A TRACK-BOUND TRANSPORTATION SYSTEM AND TRANSPORTATION SYSTEM WHICH IS OPERATED THEREWITH, IN PARTICULAR MAGNETIC LEVITATION RAILWAY

摘要

A vehicle having an eddy current brake (23) for a track-line transportation system is described. According to the invention, the eddy current brake (23) contains a brake magnet (25) which has at least one permanent magnet which develops the braking force and one control winding which is assigned thereto, in such a way that the braking force of the brake magnet is at least partially attenuated in an excited state of the control winding, and is at least partially put into effect in a de-excited state of the control winding.
