Abstract

The invention relates to the field of transport engineering, in particular to vehicles with high aerodynamic characteristics, and can be used in high-speed string transport system Unitsky. The high-speed transport module contains a head (1), a tail (2) and at least one middle (3) part, provided with at least two wheel (4) pairs. The head (1) and tail (2) parts of the module are tapered with generators (5) and (6), represented by curves, with alternating curvature, or a combination of straight and curved lines located with alternating orientation, and formed as a combination of concave and convex surfaces. In this case, the angle γ (°) between the axis of the module and the tangent (7) to the generator (5) or (6) in the longitudinal section of both the head (1) and tail (2) part of the transport module does not exceed 30 °. In addition, the module is equipped with mechanisms (8) for their mutual longitudinal (along the longitudinal axis of the module) movement established between its articulated parts. In turn, the parts of the module themselves are separated from each other by gaps (9), made in the form of open and / or closed gaps, controlled by the mechanisms (8) for the relative movement of parts of the module. In this case, the gaps (9) between the parts of the transport module may contain supporting sections (10). As a result, there is a decrease in unit costs in the implementation of passenger traffic and an increase in the energy indicators of the transport module by reducing losses, determined by its aerodynamic characteristics, improving stabilization of the transport module in the direction of its movement trajectory, as well as expanding the range of mobile vehicles for the Yunitsky transport and communication system .
