High speed train monorail track - comprises curves with max. radius three times that of train length, and short straight stretches

摘要

The track consists of curves or arcs, with max. radius corresponding to three times the length of trains on the track, and max. length of straight sectors half a train length. The lines of intersection of the planes of the points where incline changes are laid in the contact line of the Bogie frames (2) are pref. mounted between individual wagons (3), while the outside ends of the two end wagons in a train are also mounted on a bogie frame. The use of arc sectors with wide radius, rather than straight secotrs, enhances stability.
