HIGH-SPEED MAGNETIC TRAIN SYSTEM WITH TWO-TIER TRACKS

摘要

The invention relates to a high-speed magnetic train system with two-tiertracks, comprising a guide system (4), mounted on struts, whereby above theguide system (4) an upper track (12) and below it a lower track (11) aredisposed on which vehicles (1) are displaced by means of magnetic traintechnology. Every vehicle (1) comprises at least two drive and guide units(2), disposed opposite each other above and below the vehicle (1) andassociated pair-wise. These drive and guide units are used to optionally placethe vehicle (1) on the upper track (12) or suspend it from the lower track(11) and displace it on the respective track (11, 12), thereby allowing anorbital operational mode of the vehicles (1). The vehicles (1) travel on theupper track (12) exclusively in the one direction of travel (18) an on thelower track (11) exclusively in the other direction of travel (18').
