摘要:
A rail system for transporting dual use vehicles includes a network of multiple non-interconnected rails where each rail comprises an extruded triangular shell and a support material. The rails are supported by a system of support structures where each support structure includes a base with a rail adjustment actuator for selectively adjusting the position of the supported rail. Each rail is sized to support a standardized dual use passenger vehicle adapted for roadway and rail travel.

[OBJECT]To greatly reduce the passenger and freight traffic on highways and greatly reduce the consumption of petroleum due to short-distance domestic air traffic by the use of railway, so as to contribute to energy saving and mitigation of air pollution, and reduce the transportation costs through high speed and efficient transportation of people and goods. [SOLUTION MEANS]Railroad are constructed in uninhabited areas to connect a plurality of cities, with no stations constructed on the main tracks and railway interchanges are constructed instead that are provided with side tracks branching out from the main tracks or leading to the main tracks, so that a train bound to a particular town is directed through the railway interchange to a terminal constructed outside the town.

A method of constructing an elevated roadway, utilizing a crane having an articulated boom arm and a gripping mechanism, at the end of the arm for gripping a pylon, below a roadway cradle of the pylon, in order to temporarily transfer loads, generated by a tramway moving a precast bridge section along the crane arm and onto a pair of cradles, mounted upon the pylons. The construction method permits the crane to be positioned on an assembled portion of the elevated roadway, while constructing the remaining portion of the elevated roadway.

摘要:
The method and facilities for movement of vehicles over long distances are presented. The Method is comprised of the following steps: (a) connecting at least two main rollers displaced over a long distance: one in a port of departure and one in a port of arrival, by a series of closed-loop, light, strong cable (consisting of one or more loops) located at least in one of the following places: in the air, on the ground surface, on the water surface; (b) supporting said cable by at least one of the following devices: wings, air balloons, columns, rollers; (c) connecting at least one of said main rollers to an engine; (d) running said engine; (e) connecting at least one load vehicle to said cable at departure port; (f) accelerating said vehicle; (g) disconnecting said vehicles from said cable at arrival port; (h) braking said vehicles. An Installation using Method for Movement of vehicles comprising: A set of rollers disposed in the ports of departure, arrival, at points of direction change, and at middle points; a set of light, strong, closed-loop cables (loops) connect the ports of departure and arrival located over a long distance; engines placed near rollers and connected at least to one of said rollers; vehicles for transportation of people and loads; devices for connection and disconnection of the vehicles to the cable and placed on the vehicles. The author also proposes 5 projects: an air bridge over the Straits of Gibraltar, airlines connecting New York to Washington D.C., and New York to Paris, airline for delivery of fuel gas, and typical Auto Highways or city passenger transit systems.
摘要:
Transport system with a transport track (1) along which one or more transport elements (2) (cabins) are moveable, said track (1) running over a substantial horizontal distance, and at least two horizontally spaced stations, for loading and unloading persons and/or goods from the cabin, said stations being at a different vertical level of at least several meters, and the transport track brigdes the said level difference through a relatively steep course and preferably the transport track (1) and/or the cabin are mutually adapted such that the passenger comfort is secured along the part of the track where the level difference is bridged.

This invention is a transportation system and method of transport the provides a way for transport of vehicles in which the vehicles are loaded onto self-propelled pallets that are coupled to self-propelled apparatus that is in turn coupled to a fixed and predetermined guide.
摘要:
A transportation system includes a rail system and a vehicle capable of traveling on a road surface or the rail system. The vehicle includes two sets of wheels, one wheel for riding on the road surface, and another for riding on the rail. The rail is provided at an acute angle, and the wheels pivot, so that an outer flange on the rail lockingly engages an outer flange on the wheel, thereby preventing derailment. A controller automatically controls the vehicles on the rail. Magnetized bumpers on the vehicles enable the vehicles to travel on the rail in pods. Transition zones for easy entrance and exit to and from the rail system are provided at road overpasses.
摘要:
Elevator cabs are transferred between elevators, which may be shuttles, in various levels of a building, such as transport floors, in response to car calls registered in the cabs and hall calls registered on the transport floors. The cabs may be transferred from carriages or bogeys onto elevator car frames in a lateral direction, which is perpendicular to the motion of the cab on a carriage or bogey, or in a longitudinal direction which is the same as the direction of motion of a cab on a carriage or bogey. The horizontal/vertical control and transfer may be effected in response to the arrival at transport floors of elevators having cabs therein, or in response to the arrival at an elevator of a bogey carrying a cab which must be transported between a transport floor on one level of a building and a transport floor on another level of a building, in order to serve the need of a car call registered therein or a hall call. The horizontal transportation may occur on transport floors within a building, or may extend between different building segments or between different buildings.
