摘要： A rapid transit system with wheel in track design includes a guideway, a vehicle that includes a vehicle bogie or chassis that couples to the guideway, and one or more terminals and/or intermediate stations. The guideway may include a first guideway and a second guideway, with a switch guideway interposed thereinbetween that allows the vehicle to move from the first guideway to the second guideway or vice versa. The vehicle may be coupled to the guideway via the vehicle bogie. The bogie may have a first axle, a second axle, and a third axle. First and second sets of guidewheels propel the vehicle forward or backward. The first set of switch wheels and/or the second set of switch wheels may be engaged and interact with one or more first or second neutral rails or first and second switch rails to move the vehicle from guideway to guideway.

摘要： A travelling vehicle system includes an intermediate track; first tracks; second tracks; a first switching track which connects the intermediate track and one of the first tracks to an other one track; and a second switching track which connects the intermediate track and one of the second tracks to the other one track. When a travelling vehicle travels on the intermediate track, a travelling vehicle controller determines before the travelling vehicle enters the first switching track that the travelling vehicle can enter both the first and second switching tracks in the case of determining that the first track on which the travelling vehicle is currently travelling is connected to the intermediate track and determining that the intermediate track is connected to the second track selected by the travelling vehicle.

摘要： A cross-over switch system for switching a monorail vehicle between two fixed guideway beams is provided. The cross-over switch system includes two articulated beams and a median beam. Each one of the two articulated beams, constructed of a chain of pivotably interconnected segments, and is pivotably connected to a different one of the two parallel fixed guideways. The median beam, which is pivotable in its center, is located at a median distance between the two parallel fixed guideway beams. When in a switching mode, the median beam is pivoted and each segment of each articulated beam is also pivoted so that each one of the articulated beam abuts an opposed end of the median beam.

摘要： An educational apparatus is traversed horizontally for the purpose of increasing learning capabilities is pictured. The apparatus is in the design of a figure eight lying on its side longitudinally and laterally intersected at its center by a column and row of straight tracks 30. The apparatus is comprised of tracks, straight 30, arced 40, and curved 50, contiguously connected to one another and an octagon shaped distinct end coupler 96 used as a bridge to connect the non-contiguous ends of tracks, straight 30, arced 40, and curved 50. The distinct end coupler 96 is located in the center of the apparatus. The distinct end coupler 96 is not only a structure used to connect the non-contiguous ends of tracks but also a station from which a human receives instruction prior to traversing the apparatus and a portal used by a walking human to traverse from track to track in the proper direction and sequence, important for basic brain processing methods. The apparatus is designed to be traversed by a human in specific patterns in order to promote, foster, and facilitate the development of brain functions controlling balance, coordination, spatial awareness, and vestibular function thereby increasing learning capabilities. As a result of traversing the apparatus in specific patterns, the human brain will process alphabetic and numeric symbols more efficiently. This is especially important in the development of early childhood learners. The educational importance for the invention is based upon brain research findings that support the link of sensory motor development and increased learning capacity.

摘要： In apparatuses of the generic type, single point modules are provided which can transfer only the transport wagons arriving from one point branch optionally into one of the two other point branches. It is achieved by the development of the point modules according to the invention as T-shaped double point modules (40) that each point branch (42, 44, 46) can be connected optionally to one of the other two point branches, which results in a construction of a network transport path system of a simpler construction which requires less space and provides a better overview. For narrowing the spacing of parallel transport path routes (76, 80), point modules (72) are proposed whose branch angle is less than 90.degree., preferably 45.degree.. Apparatus with flexible transport path and assembly systems in industrial production plants are a preferred application sector.

摘要： The selective interconnection of tracks or slots coming together at a junction in a conveying system with push and pull operable conveying chains without return strands running in chain channels is accomplished by a switch constructed as a straight prism (21) mounted in a rotary manner. The prism has differently shaped chain channel portions (23', 23") on different ones of its sides. By rotating the prism (21) about its median longitudinal axis (22), that chain channel portion is positioned in the junction, which has the channel portions shaped to obtain the desired connection between the chain channel of selected entering and exiting tracks.

摘要： A rotary switch for a people mover guideway having a predetermined path, guidebeam and electric rail configuration, routes a transit car having electric power signal collectors from one entry guideway path to either of two exit guideway paths or vice versa. The switch has an elongated structural frame provided with guidelines, electric rail and tire path structure on one side compatible with the guideway configuration to provide car routing to one of the two exit paths. The frame further has guidebeam, electric rail and tire path structure on another side compatible with the guideway configuration to provide car routing to the other of the two exit paths. The electric rail structure on each side of the frame includes power rails and signal rails disposed along the respective switch paths of travel for respectively contacting the electric collectors of the transit car. An electric connection arrangement for the switch includes first electric conductors for connecting the switch power rails to the guideway electric power rail circuit and second electric conductors for connecting the switch signal rails to the guideway signal rail circuit. The first and second conductors are bundled together in a cable which is provided with a nylon cover and which is supported within a bore through one of the shafts about which the switch is rotated. Rotational motion of the frame is thus permitted between the two positions while electric continuity is maintained from the guideway electric power and signal rail circuits, respectively, to the electric power and signal rails on the two sides of the switch frame through direct connection of electric cables.
