(Platform) Equipped with an elevated track 2 that sequentially connects A,..., And a vehicle 1 that travels on the track 2 with passengers (personnel) on board. And the overhead line for electric power transmission, such as a trolley line for supplying electric power to the vehicle 1 from the track 2 side, is omitted.

車両1は、車両1を力行させる駆動モータ10と、駆動モータ10を駆動させるための電力を蓄電可能な蓄電装置11と、を搭載している。
駆動モータ10は、ブレーキ等の車両制動時(減速時)に、発電機となって(回生作動により)回生電力を発電可能なものである。また、発電した回生電力を蓄電装置11に蓄電させるものである。駆動モータ10は左右一対の駆動用タイヤ13,13に接続されている。駆動用タイヤ13は、軌道2を構成する左右一対の軌条2A,2Aの左右内方側に、左右一対のT字状の駆動レール3,3の各上面を転動可能に設けられている。駆動タイヤ13を回転させることで、車両1に推進力を付与し力行させるものである。なお、本発明において「力行」とは、車両1に、機械的又は電気的な力が付与され定速走行又は加速走行している状態を言う。つまり、慣性力による惰性走行(自走)を含まない走行のことである。
The vehicle 1 includes a drive motor 10 that powers the vehicle 1 and a power storage device 11 that can store electric power for driving the drive motor 10.
The drive motor 10 serves as a generator (due to a regenerative operation) and can generate regenerative power during vehicle braking (deceleration) such as a brake. In addition, the generated regenerative power is stored in the power storage device 11. The drive motor 10 is connected to a pair of left and right drive tires 13. The drive tire 13 is provided on the left and right inner sides of the pair of left and right rails 2A and 2A constituting the track 2 so that the upper surfaces of the pair of left and right T-shaped drive rails 3 and 3 can roll. By rotating the drive tire 13, a propulsive force is applied to the vehicle 1 for powering. In the present invention, “power running” refers to a state in which a mechanical or electrical force is applied to the vehicle 1 and the vehicle 1 is traveling at a constant speed or at an accelerated speed. In other words, this means traveling that does not include inertial traveling (self-running) due to inertial force.

また、車両1は、軌条2A,2Aを転動可能な複数の車輪14と、その複数の車輪14を保持する車輪保持部材15と、を備えている。軌条2Aの上面に転動する主車輪14A,14Aは、前後方向に分かれて2個ずつ各車輪保持部材15に枢着されている。また、軌条2Aの外側面に転動する案内車輪14B,14Bは前後方向に分かれて2個ずつ車輪保持部材15に枢着されている。また、車輪保持部材15には、軌条2Aに下面近傍に転動する下案内車輪14Cを枢着している。各車輪14によって、カーブ等の軌道2であっても車両1が確実に軌条2Aに沿って案内されつつ走行する。   The vehicle 1 also includes a plurality of wheels 14 that can roll the rails 2 </ b> A and 2 </ b> A, and a wheel holding member 15 that holds the plurality of wheels 14. The main wheels 14A and 14A that roll on the upper surface of the rail 2A are separated in the front-rear direction and are pivotally attached to each wheel holding member 15 two by two. The guide wheels 14B and 14B that roll on the outer surface of the rail 2A are separated in the front-rear direction and are pivotally attached to the wheel holding member 15 two by two. Further, a lower guide wheel 14C that rolls near the lower surface of the rail 2A is pivotally attached to the wheel holding member 15. Each wheel 14 travels while the vehicle 1 is reliably guided along the rail 2A even on a track 2 such as a curve.

次に、軌道2は、平面視環状(ループ状)に形成されている。各駅(A1 ,A2 ,A3 ,A4 )を車両1が巡回(周回)可能に配設している。駅Aと駅Aの間を水平状の軌道2で結んだ場合では、駅Aと駅Aの間の軌道2の長さは、500メートルから1000メートルの長さに設けている。つまり、1周が2km〜4kmに形成されている。 Next, the track 2 is formed in an annular shape (loop shape) in plan view. Each station (A 1 , A 2 , A 3 , A 4 ) is arranged so that the vehicle 1 can travel (turn around). When the station A and the station A are connected by the horizontal track 2, the length of the track 2 between the station A and the station A is set to a length of 500 to 1000 meters. That is, one round is formed to 2 km to 4 km.

図3に、円環状の軌道2を展開した簡略側面図を示す。ここで、説明を容易にするために、4つの各駅A…を、第1駅A1 、第2駅A2 、第3駅A3 、第4駅A4 と呼ぶ。
第1駅A1 から第2駅A2 まで(第1・2駅間A12)の軌道2は側面視水平状に形成されている。第2駅A2 から第3駅A3 まで(第2・3駅間A23)の軌道2は側面視山型状に形成されている。第3駅A3 から第4駅A4 まで(第3・4駅間A34)の軌道2は側面視谷型状に形成されている。第4駅から第1駅までの(第4・1駅間A41)の軌道2は側面視水平状に形成されている。
FIG. 3 shows a simplified side view in which the annular track 2 is developed. Here, for ease of explanation, the four stations A are referred to as a first station A 1 , a second station A 2 , a third station A 3 , and a fourth station A 4 .
The track 2 from the first station A 1 to the second station A 2 (A 12 between the first and second stations) is formed horizontally in a side view. The track 2 from the second station A 2 to the third station A 3 (between the second and third stations A 23 ) is formed in a mountain shape when viewed from the side. The track 2 from the third station A 3 to the fourth station A 4 (A 34 between the third and fourth stations) is formed in a valley shape when viewed from the side. The track 2 from the fourth station to the first station (A 41 between the fourth station and the first station) is formed horizontally in a side view.

第1・2駅区間A12は、第1駅A1 の進行側の発進側軌道部2aであって、車両1を力行させるべき(加速又は定速度運転で慣性力を付与させるべき)発進力行区域Kを有している。また、第2駅A2 の手前側の到着側軌道部2bであって、車両1の速度を停車のために減速させるべき制動必要区域Lを有している。また、発進力行区域Kで得られた力(推進力)によって駆動源を必要とせずに車両1を慣性力により自走(惰性走行)させる自走区域Jを有している。また、第1・2駅区間A12の制動必要区域Lは、車両1が強い逆風等によって到着が困難な場合(車両速度が所定値以下の場合)に、車両1を力行させる必要のある到着力行運転発生予定区域でもある。 The first and second station sections A 12 are starting side track portions 2a on the advancing side of the first station A 1 , and the vehicle 1 should be powered (the inertial force should be applied by acceleration or constant speed operation). It has area K. Further, a second station A 2 on the front side of the arrival side raceway portion 2b, and has a braking required area L to be decelerated for stopping the speed of the vehicle 1. Moreover, it has the self-propelled area J which makes the vehicle 1 self-propelled (inertial traveling) by inertia force, without requiring a drive source with the force (propulsive force) obtained in the starting power running area K. In addition, the braking required area L of the first and second station sections A 12 is an arrival that requires the vehicle 1 to be powered when the vehicle 1 is difficult to arrive due to a strong headwind or the like (when the vehicle speed is a predetermined value or less). It is also an area where power running is scheduled to occur.

ここで、車両速度の所定値とは、車両1が到着可能な場合の、制動必要区域L内での各速度測定箇所の各速度や各測定箇所間での減速度を所定速度値としている。
言い換えると、制動必要区域L内で、予定している車両速度よりも遅い速度(駅Aに到着する時刻が遅れる速度)や、その減速度で走行すると到着せずに停車してしまう虞れのある減速度の値である。つまり、予定通りに到着可能な際の、車両速度(減速度)を基準値として、到着が困難な場合の車両速度(減速度)値と言える。
Here, the predetermined value of the vehicle speed is a predetermined speed value that is a speed at each speed measurement point in the braking required area L or a deceleration between the measurement points when the vehicle 1 can arrive.
In other words, there is a possibility that the vehicle will stop without arriving when traveling at a speed that is slower than the planned vehicle speed (the speed at which the time of arrival at station A is delayed) or the deceleration in the braking required area L. It is a certain deceleration value. That is, it can be said that the vehicle speed (deceleration) value when arrival is difficult is based on the vehicle speed (deceleration) when the vehicle can arrive as scheduled.

第2・3駅間A23は、第2駅A2 の進行側で山型状軌道2の頂上部近傍まで、車両1を引揚装置にて引揚げる引揚区域Sを有している。また、頂上部からの自由落下滑走によって車両1を自走させる自走区域Jを有している。また、第3駅A3 の手前側の到着側軌道部2bであって、停車するために速度を減速させるべき制動必要区域Lを有している。
なお、引揚装置は軌道2側に設置され、チェーンと減速付モータあるいは、ロープと巻取装置と減速付モータと昇降台等、又は、リニアモータ等から構成される。
The second and third inter-station A 23 has a lifting area S in which the vehicle 1 is lifted by the lifting device to the vicinity of the top of the mountain-shaped track 2 on the traveling side of the second station A 2 . Moreover, it has the self-propelled area J which makes the vehicle 1 self-propelled by free-fall sliding from the top. Also has a front side of the arrival side raceway portion 2b of the third station A 3, the brake must zone L to slowing down the speed to stop.
The lifting device is installed on the track 2 side, and includes a chain and a motor with a speed reduction, a rope, a winding device, a motor with a speed reduction, a lifting platform, a linear motor, or the like.

第3・4駅間A34は、第3駅A3 の発車側で、谷型状軌道2の底部近傍まで、車両1の急発進や過剰な速度となるのを防止するために速度を抑制させるべき制動必要区域Lを有している。また、下り傾斜によって得られた推進力(慣性力)を利用して車両1を自走させる自走区域Jを有している。第4駅A4 の手前側の到着側軌道部2bであって、車両1を停車させるために減速させるべき制動必要区域Lを有している。また、第4駅A4 の手前側の到着側軌道部2bの制動必要区域Lは、車両速度が所定値以下の場合に、車両1を力行させる必要のある到着力行運転発生予定区域でもある。 Between the third and fourth stations A 34 , on the departure side of the third station A 3 , the speed is suppressed to prevent the vehicle 1 from starting suddenly or becoming excessively close to the bottom of the valley-shaped track 2. It has a braking required area L to be caused. Moreover, it has the self-propelled area J which self-propels the vehicle 1 using the propulsive force (inertial force) obtained by the downward inclination. A front side of the arrival side raceway portion 2b of the fourth station A 4, and a braking required area L to be decelerated in order to stop the vehicle 1. Further, the braking required zone L of the fourth station A 4 on the front side of the arrival side raceway section 2b, when the vehicle speed is below a predetermined value, is also the arrival power running operation occur scheduled areas that need to be power running of the vehicle 1.

第4・1駅間A41は、第1・2駅区間A12と同様に、発進力行区域Kと、自走区域Jと、制動必要区域Lと、を有している。また、第4・1駅間A41の制動必要区域Lは、車両速度が所定値以下の場合に、車両1を力行させる到着力行運転発生予定区域でもある。 Similar to the first and second station sections A 12 , the fourth and first inter-station A 41 has a starting power running area K, a self-propelled area J, and a braking required area L. Further, the braking required area L of the fourth / first station A 41 is also an arrival power running operation scheduled area where the vehicle 1 is powered when the vehicle speed is equal to or lower than a predetermined value.

次に、車両1を、図4に示す電力容量と各区域との関係図を用いて説明する。発進力行区域Kで、車両1は、自らの蓄電装置11に蓄えられている電力を使用して(放電して)駆動モータ10を駆動させ、車両1を加速走行(定速走行でも良い)させる。自らに自走可能な慣性力を付与させる。自走区域Jでは、慣性力を利用し自走(惰性走行)する。制動必要区域Lでは、駆動モータ10を力行作動から回生作動にさせ(発電機とし)、回生電力を発生させて、蓄電装置11に蓄電させる。   Next, the vehicle 1 will be described with reference to the relationship diagram between the power capacity and each zone shown in FIG. In the starting power running zone K, the vehicle 1 uses the electric power stored in its power storage device 11 (discharges) to drive the drive motor 10 to cause the vehicle 1 to accelerate (or may run at a constant speed). . Give yourself the inertial power to run on its own. In the self-propelled area J, the inertial force is used for self-propelled (inertial traveling). In the braking required area L, the drive motor 10 is changed from a power running operation to a regenerative operation (a generator), and regenerative power is generated to be stored in the power storage device 11.

また、車両1は、駅Aの手前側の到着側軌道部2bの制動必要区域L(到着力行運転発生予定区域)で、到着が困難となった場合に、到着すべき駅Aまで駆動モータ10を駆動させて走行するものである。   In addition, when the vehicle 1 is difficult to arrive in the braking required area L (the area where the arrival power running operation is scheduled to occur) of the arrival side track portion 2b on the near side of the station A, the drive motor 10 reaches the station A that should arrive. To drive.

ここで、到着側軌道部2bの制動必要区域L(到着力行運転発生予定区域)で駆動モータ10を駆動させると、図4の破線で示すように、蓄電装置11の残量が不足する(電気力量が所定値以下となる)虞れが発生する。つまり、第1・2・4駅A1 ,A2 ,A4 の到着側軌道部2bであって、電力を充電する区域である制動必要区域Lが、電力を放電して蓄電装置11の残量が不足する虞れのある残量不足発生予定区域αとなる。なお、電力容量の所定値とは、車両1を駆動モータ10による走行で駅Aに到着させることが困難となる電力容量の値である。 Here, if the drive motor 10 is driven in the required braking area L (arrival power running operation scheduled area) of the arrival side track portion 2b, the remaining amount of the power storage device 11 becomes insufficient as shown by the broken line in FIG. There is a risk that the ability will be below a predetermined value. In other words, the braking required area L, which is the arrival side track portion 2b of the first, second, and fourth stations A 1 , A 2 , A 4 and is the area where the electric power is charged, discharges the electric power and the remaining power storage device 11 remains. It becomes the remaining shortage occurrence scheduled area α in which the amount may be insufficient. The predetermined value of the power capacity is a value of power capacity that makes it difficult for the vehicle 1 to arrive at the station A by traveling by the drive motor 10.

ここで、残量不足発生予定区域αには、駅Aへの到着を可能にする推進力を車両1に付与可能な軌道側車両推進手段20を設けている。さらに、車両1を、駆動モータ10による走行又は軌道側車両推進手段20による走行に切換える運転切換手段25を、車両1側と軌道2側に設けている。   Here, a track-side vehicle propulsion means 20 capable of imparting a propulsive force that enables arrival at the station A to the vehicle 1 is provided in the shortage remaining scheduled area α.

Yes. In addition, a sensor unit 28 such as a vehicle speed sensor or a proximity sensor capable of acquiring the speed and position of the vehicle 1 is provided. Further, a control unit 27 capable of information processing such as speed (acceleration, deceleration, etc.) of the vehicle 1 and arrival prediction judgment from information obtained by the sensor unit 28 and the transmission / reception unit 29 is provided. In addition, an inverter 26 is provided that can transmit an external (ground side) power source to the track-side vehicle propulsion means 20 by a command from the control unit 27 or the like. The inverter 26, the control unit 27, the transmission / reception unit 29, etc. of the operation switching means 25 may be provided in each station A, the ground command room, or the like.

運転切換手段25は、図6のフローチャート図に示すように、残量不足発生予定区域Lで、センサ部28によって得た情報を、制御部27が演算し、車両速度を確認する。車両速度が所定の値以下の場合であって、かつ、蓄電装置11の電力容量が所定値以下の場合に、制御部27から車両側制御部17及びインバータ26に指令を送信し、駆動モータ10による走行(力行)から軌道側車両推進手段20による走行(力行)へ切り換えるものである。   As shown in the flowchart of FIG. 6, in the operation switching means 25, the control unit 27 calculates the information obtained by the sensor unit 28 in the remaining shortage occurrence scheduled area L, and confirms the vehicle speed.

複数対のタイヤ21,21を軌条2A,2Aに左右内方側で軌道2に沿って前後方向に配設したものである。左右のタイヤ21,21内の一方のタイヤ21を回転モータ31に接続し、他方のタイヤ21を回転自在に保持部材32に取着している。そして、エアシリンダー等の伸縮自在可能なアクチュエータ30の伸縮方向の一方端に、リンク部材33を介して一方のタイヤ21及び回転モータ31を揺動自在に取着している。また、アクチュエータ30の伸縮方向の他方端に、別のリンク部材33を介して他方のタイヤ21及び保持部材32を枢着している。非動作状態では、図1に示すように、タイヤ21の回転中心が傾倒して(左右のタイヤ21,21の2つの回転中心軸が正面から見てV字状となって)左右のタイヤ21,21の外周面が離間するように設けている。なお、車両1には、前後方向に長い補助駆動板16が垂設されている。補助駆動板16は、車両走行時に左右のタイヤ21,21の間を通過可能に設けられている。なお、タイヤ21,21を一対のみを設けるも好ましい場合がある。
FIG. 7 shows an example of implementation of the track side vehicle propulsion means 20. (A) is the front view at the time of operation | movement, (b) is the top view.
A plurality of pairs of tires 21 and 21 are arranged on the rails 2A and 2A in the front-rear direction along the track 2 on the left and right inner sides. One of the left and right tires 21, 21 is connected to a rotary motor 31, and the other tire 21 is rotatably attached to a holding member 32. The one tire 21 and the rotary motor 31 are swingably attached to one end in the expansion / contraction direction of the retractable actuator 30 such as an air cylinder via a link member 33. The other tire 21 and the holding member 32 are pivotally attached to the other end of the actuator 30 in the expansion / contraction direction via another link member 33. In the non-operating state, as shown in FIG. 1, the rotation center of the tire 21 is tilted (the two rotation center axes of the left and right tires 21, 21 are V-shaped when viewed from the front), and the left and right tires 21. , 21 are provided so that the outer peripheral surfaces are spaced apart from each other. The vehicle 1 is provided with an auxiliary drive plate 16 that is long in the front-rear direction. The auxiliary drive plate 16 is provided so that it can pass between the left and right tires 21 when the vehicle is traveling. It may be preferable to provide only a pair of tires 21 and 21.

軌道側車両推進手段20は、制御部27の指令によって、アクチュエータ30の両端が離間するように伸長すると、左右のタイヤ21,21は、回転軸心が平行状となって、補助駆動板16を挟圧(挟擦)するよう設けている。回転モータ31がインバータ26によって所定回転数回転すると、左右のタイヤ21,21が、補助駆動板16を軌道2に沿って送り出すように設けている。つまり、補助駆動板16に、回転させた複数のタイヤ21,21を摩擦接触させることで、タイヤ21の回転を推進力に変えて、車両1を力行させるものである。   When the track-side vehicle propulsion means 20 is extended so that both ends of the actuator 30 are separated according to a command from the control unit 27, the left and right tires 21, 21 have their rotational axes parallel to each other so that the auxiliary drive plate 16 It is provided so as to be pinched (squeezed). When the rotary motor 31 is rotated by a predetermined number of revolutions by the inverter 26, the left and right tires 21, 21 are provided so as to send the auxiliary drive plate 16 along the track 2. That is, by bringing the plurality of rotated tires 21 and 21 into frictional contact with the auxiliary drive plate 16, the rotation of the tire 21 is changed to a propulsive force, and the vehicle 1 is powered.

上述した構成により、車両1は、発進力行区域Kで、蓄電装置11の電力を使用し駆動モータ10にて力行(加速運転又は定速運転)し、その後、自走区域Jで軌道2を自走する。車両1の速度を減速させるべき制動必要区域Lで、駆動モータ10を発電機とし、回生電力を蓄電装置11に蓄電(充電)させる。   With the above-described configuration, the vehicle 1 uses the electric power of the power storage device 11 in the starting power running area K and is powered by the drive motor 10 (accelerated operation or constant speed operation). Run. In the braking required area L where the speed of the vehicle 1 should be reduced, the drive motor 10 is used as a generator, and regenerative power is stored (charged) in the power storage device 11.

ここで、駅Aの手前側の到着側軌道部2bで、車両速度が所定値よりも大きい場合は、駆動モータ10を発電機として作動させ回生電力を充電させながら、車両1は駅Aに確実に到着する。
車両速度が所定値以下の場合であって、かつ、電力容量が所定値よりも大きい場合は、充電(蓄電)した電力を活用して、駆動モータ10を駆動させ、車両1は駅Aに確実に到着する。
車両速度が所定の値以下の場合であって、かつ、蓄電装置11の電気容量が所定値以下の場合に、運転切換手段25によって、駆動モータ10の走行から、軌道側車両推進手段20の走行に、自動で切換わり、車両1は駅Aに確実に到着する。
Here, when the vehicle speed is larger than a predetermined value in the arrival side track portion 2b on the near side of the station A, the vehicle 1 is surely connected to the station A while operating the drive motor 10 as a generator and charging the regenerative power. To arrive.
When the vehicle speed is equal to or lower than a predetermined value and the power capacity is larger than the predetermined value, the drive motor 10 is driven using the charged (charged) power, and the vehicle 1 is surely connected to the station A. To arrive.
When the vehicle speed is equal to or lower than a predetermined value and the electric capacity of the power storage device 11 is equal to or lower than the predetermined value, the driving switching means 25 causes the driving of the track-side vehicle propulsion means 20 from the driving motor 10 Thus, the vehicle 1 is automatically switched and the vehicle 1 arrives at the station A reliably.

なお、電力容量が所定値以下で駅Aに到着した場合は、到着した駅Aにて、充電するか、又は、蓄電器(バッテリー)11bを交換するのが好ましい。また、車両1が所定の駅A(例えば、始発となる第1駅A1 )に到着、又は、軌道2を所定数だけ周回した際に、充電しあるいは蓄電器11bを交換するのが望ましい。 In addition, when the power capacity arrives at the station A with a predetermined value or less, it is preferable to charge at the station A that arrives or to replace the battery (battery) 11b. In addition, when the vehicle 1 arrives at a predetermined station A (for example, the first station A 1 which is the first train) or goes around the track 2 by a predetermined number, it is desirable to charge or replace the capacitor 11b.

なお、本発明は、設計変更可能であって、上述の人員輸送以外に、物流に用いるも自由であり、輸送する距離(1周)を5〜20kmとなるように軌道2を設けても良い。また、軌道2は、緩やかな上り軌道や下り軌道等を設けるも自由である。   In addition, the present invention can be changed in design, and can be used for logistics in addition to the above-mentioned personnel transportation, and the track 2 may be provided so that the transportation distance (one round) is 5 to 20 km. . In addition, the trajectory 2 is free to provide a gentle up or down trajectory.

また、駆動モータ10と車輪14を連結して、駆動タイヤ13の替わりに車輪14(主車輪14A)を駆動させても良い。この場合、車輪14の制動によって回生電力を発生させ、回生電力を蓄電装置11に充電させる。   Alternatively, the drive motor 10 and the wheel 14 may be connected to drive the wheel 14 (main wheel 14A) instead of the drive tire 13. In this case, regenerative electric power is generated by braking the wheel 14, and the electric storage device 11 is charged with the regenerative electric power.

また、軌道2の発進側軌道部2aに、軌道側車両推進手段20を配設し、車両1を力行させる際に、蓄電装置11の残量(電力容量)が所定値以下であって、かつ、車両速度が所定値以下の場合に、駆動モータ10による走行から軌道側車両推進手段20による走行に運転切換手段25によって自動で切り換えるようにしても良い。また、ここでの電力容量の所定値とは、車両1を十分な速度で走行させる慣性力を付与可能な速度(加速度)まで駆動モータ10を運転させることが困難な電力容量の値である。また、ここでの車両速度の所定値とは、予定通りに到着可能にするために、自走区域Jを十分な速度で走行させる慣性力を付与可能な速度(加速度や定速度)を基準値として、その基準値よりも劣る速度(加速度又は定速度)の値である。言い換えると、その速度後に自走させると停車してしまう虞れや到着が遅れる虞れのある速度の値である。
また、軌道側車両推進手段20は、軌道2に設置した一次巻線と、車両1に備えたリアクションプレートと呼ばれる金属板で、構成され、一次巻線の磁界と金属板に誘導される電流により、推進力が発生する地上一次リニアモータ式でも良い。
Further, when the track-side vehicle propulsion means 20 is disposed on the start-side track portion 2a of the track 2, and the vehicle 1 is powered, the remaining amount (power capacity) of the power storage device 11 is less than a predetermined value, and Alternatively, when the vehicle speed is equal to or lower than a predetermined value, the driving switching means 25 may automatically switch from running by the drive motor 10 to running by the track-side vehicle propulsion means 20. The predetermined value of the power capacity here is a value of power capacity that makes it difficult to drive the drive motor 10 to a speed (acceleration) at which an inertial force that causes the vehicle 1 to travel at a sufficient speed can be applied. In addition, the predetermined value of the vehicle speed here is a reference value that is a speed (acceleration or constant speed) at which an inertial force that causes the self-propelled area J to travel at a sufficient speed to enable arrival at a scheduled time. As a value of speed (acceleration or constant speed) inferior to the reference value. In other words, it is the value of the speed that may cause the vehicle to stop or arrive late if it is self-propelled after that speed.
The track-side vehicle propulsion means 20 is composed of a primary winding installed on the track 2 and a metal plate called a reaction plate provided in the vehicle 1, and is based on a magnetic field of the primary winding and a current induced in the metal plate. Alternatively, a ground linear motor type that generates propulsive force may be used.
