Definitions

  • the invention relates to a transport system with at least one rail and with at least one transport carriage, which can be moved over at least one trolley on the rail, having the features of the introductory part of claim 1 (US Pat. US-A-2,977,892 ).
  • Transport systems in particular single-rail transport systems for persons or goods, are known in various embodiments.
  • the AT 410 108 B contains a first proposal of branching when using tubular support rail that contains no mechanical parts.
  • the proposed branching can preferably be used for monorails.
  • it has the disadvantage that before and after the branching completely self-supporting rail tracks are necessary so that the trolley can be pivoted. This severely restricts the maximum speed achievable for crossing branches, even for the straight branches of branches.
  • this limitation makes it difficult to manufacture the support structure and increases the space required for the system.
  • a transport system with at least one rail, in which at least one branch is provided, in which the rail divides into two rail branches, and with at least one transport carriage, which is movable over at least one trolley on the rail known.
  • a drive unit of the wheels of the trolley rests on the rail and is guided on it.
  • the drive unit is opposite the trolley about the axis of the rail pivotable.
  • a guide device support wheels in the upper part of the rail is provided, which stabilizes the position of the trolley above the rail.
  • the invention is based on the object to propose a transport system of the type mentioned, are executed in the branches (forks, switches) without moving parts and the disadvantages of the known systems are avoided.
  • transport system proposed according to the invention are preferably cylindrical (in particular substantially circular in cross-section), designed as straight or curved rods or tubes carrier rails that can be attached to the ground or on a support frame, preferably equipped with a drive, transport trolley on trolleys movable ,
  • a guide means consisting of at least one, for example, made of pipes or rods, guide rail provided, which holds the trolley and the car thereon, to prevent it from tipping over.
  • Branches are formed in the transport system according to the invention in that the rail divides into two rail branches in the region of the branching or bifurcation, whereby in the region of the branching the, preferably circular, cross-sectional shape of both rail branches running apart in the region of the branching remains or in one possible embodiment only slightly restricted by (small) grooves.
  • the grooves may be provided in the branching region in the direction of the longitudinal extent of the two rail branches usually at the top of the rail branches and meet in the gusset of the branch. The grooves make it easier to guide each in the pivoted state of the trolley upper wheel on the branch and form between them a tapered rib whose side surfaces are parts of the outer contour of the leading away from the branch rail branches.
  • symmetrical branches and asymmetrical branches i. right and left turnouts, are formed.
  • Transport trolleys used in the invention have in An embodiment at least one trolley, which only partially surrounds the rail and is guided on this, for example via at least two rollers.
  • these rollers are preferably arranged at an angular distance between 90 ° and 120 ° from each other.
  • two rollers are preferably arranged one behind the other in order to achieve a good running property of the trolley.
  • a part of the trolley which is referred to below as the drive unit, can be rotated relative to the trolley about an axis which coincides with the axis of the rail.
  • By turning the drive unit it is possible to determine at branches, which are formed as described above, which outgoing from the branch rail branch of the trolley follows. This is always the rail branch of the forked rail on which the downwardly pivoted roll is guided.
  • the drive unit is pivoted so far that the roller is not lifted in the passage over the outgoing rail branch in an inadmissible manner to the top.
  • the upper wheel of the drive unit can in this case be pivoted to the vertical position or even beyond.
  • a transport system in which can be determined by turning the drive unit on which outgoing branching of a rail car trolley when he drives over a branch, without even provided in the branch itself even a moving part is. It is sufficient to turn the drive unit so that it moves and thus the trolley on the selected rail branch of the rail branch. Furthermore, the support rail can be supported at any point down, the construction is therefore only by the static conditions certainly.
  • the rotation of the drive unit can be done for example by a motor drive in the trolley or by deflecting (tilting) of the rollers can be achieved. Both methods can also be used in combination.
  • the invention is particularly suitable for single-rail transport installations in which the transport vehicles are moved on, i. above, drive the rail.
  • the drive unit can be guided on the rail in any desired manner.
  • a guide means rollers, sliders or the like. be provided. But it is also possible to guide the drive unit to the rail by magnetic forces.
  • a guide means is provided which keeps the trolley always (in a vertical position) above the rail.
  • This guide device is provided on at least one side of the trolley.
  • the position stabilization can preferably also be achieved by rollers, but also by magnetic forces.
  • rollers preferably made of elastic material, it is possible to use a pair of rollers whose distance can be changed transversely to the axial direction of the guide rail.
  • the two rollers can firmly surround the rail by reducing their distance and completely fix the position of the trolley.
  • the joint By increasing the distance, the joint can be loosened to release it, as well as a lead-in area can be made to insert a guide rail between the rollers and then fix the guide by reducing the spacing of the rollers.
  • the change in distance can be achieved, for example, by twisting a fork on which the guide rollers are mounted.
  • the guide rail ensures that the transport carriage is held above the carrier rail. It further ensures a lateral guidance, which is helpful in particular in embodiments of the invention without grooves in the support rail to stabilize the trolley side. And you moreover, the car is guided in curves in a specific inclined position to compensate for centrifugal forces. As a result, higher speeds or a higher ride comfort for the occupants are possible.
  • the drive of the trolley can also be performed by a drive on the guide rail as an alternative to the roller drive on the support rail.
  • a drive on the guide rail as an alternative to the roller drive on the support rail.
  • linear motors as drive systems both on the carrier and on the guide rail is possible.
