Abstract

Ensemble de voie et d'aiguillage pour véhicules monorail autopropulsé. La voie comprend deux éléments orientés longitudinalement reliés en des points espacés transversalement par des étriers en arceau qui s'elèvent au-dessus des éléments de la voie et auxquels un rail conducteur suspendu, espacé verticalement des éléments de la voie, est centré par rapport à ceux-ci. Des capteurs montés sur le véhicule peuvent trotter contre le rail conducteur pour alimenter un moteur d'entraînement. A une jonction entre les éléments de la voie et les rails conducteurs d'une ligne principale et d'un embranchement, des lames d'aiguille montees sur des pivots coaxiaux et mobiles sont reliées par un mécanisme differentiel déplaçant l'une des lames entre les positions correspondant à la ligne principale et à l'embranchement lorsque l'autre lame parcourt une distance différente entre ces positions. Application à la voie et aux aiguillages équipant un système de monorail autopropulsé.Track and switch assembly for self-propelled monorail vehicles. The track comprises two longitudinally oriented elements connected at transversely spaced points by hoop stirrups which rise above the track elements and to which a suspended conductor rail, spaced vertically from the track elements, is centered with respect to these. Sensors mounted on the vehicle can trot against the conductor rail to power a drive motor. At a junction between the track elements and the conductor rails of a main line and a branch line, needle blades mounted on coaxial and movable pivots are connected by a differential mechanism moving one of the blades between them. positions corresponding to the main line and branch when the other blade travels a different distance between these positions. Application to the track and the switches equipping a self-propelled monorail system.
