Abstract

FIELD: construction.

SUBSTANCE: in the method for construction of motor highways for use of gravity motion of vehicles including motion of vehicles along an inclined surface with subsequent raising of these vehicles to a certain elevation, and their movement along an inclined safety zone from one direction to another, construction of motor highways is carried out with inclined surfaces of roads providing for motion of vehicles in different directions and using raising sections at the ends of inclined surfaces, besides, change in motion of vehicles from one direction to another is carried out on a safety zone counterclockwise in three points, in the middle part of the inclined surface, on the line of surface crossing and on the upper section of the motor highway.

EFFECT: improved conditions of vehicles movement and fuel saving.

Description

The invention relates to the automotive industry and can be applied in the construction of highways for the use of gravitational movement of vehicles.

Known highways designed for the movement of vehicles. The motorway has two highways, the movement of which is carried out in the opposite direction. To change the direction of movement, crossings are equipped at a certain distance (Construction of roads in 2 volumes, edited by V.K. Nekrasov. - M.: Transport, 1980).

A disadvantage of the existing highway is the lack of road sections on a flat surface where fuel consumption could be saved.

As the closest analogue, the method of building motorways for the use of gravitational movement of vehicles is used, in which a natural relief is used, in the longitudinal profile of which the ups and downs alternate with each other (see Babkov V.F. Highways (basic information about roads for motorists) , Scientific and Technical Publishing House of the Ministry of Road Transport and Highways of the RSFSR, M., 1960, p.30-31). The known solution ensures the achievement of the claimed technical result during the operation of this road - saving fuel consumption due to inertial overcoming ups and downs during movement.

The disadvantage is that the method cannot be used in the construction of highways, as motorways require the movement of vehicles in different directions.

The objective of the invention is the creation of such a method of construction of highways, which improves the conditions of movement of vehicles in different directions and saves fuel consumption.

To this end, in a method of constructing motorways for using gravitational movement of vehicles, including moving vehicles on an inclined surface and then raising these vehicles to a certain elevation and moving them along an inclined dividing strip from one direction to another, according to the invention, the construction of highways is carried out with inclined surfaces roads, providing movement of vehicles in different directions, and use at the ends inclined surfaces of the lifting sections, and changing the movement of vehicles from one direction to another is carried out on the dividing strip counterclockwise at three points: in the middle of the inclined surface, at the intersection of surfaces and on the upper section of the highway.

The method is illustrated by drawings, where figure 1 shows a diagram of the movement of vehicles on the highway; figure 2 is a view of figure 1.

Figure 1-2 shows the inclined surfaces of the roads 1, 2, equipped for the movement of vehicles 3, 4; lifting sections 5, 6, intended for lifting vehicles to certain elevations 7, 8; crossings 9, 10, 11, 12, 13 on an inclined dividing strip 14 to ensure a change in the direction of movement of vehicles; intersection line of inclined surfaces 15.

The method is as follows. During the construction of the highway, artificial and natural elevations are used. The horizontal surfaces of future roads are covered with gravel and equipped with inclined surfaces of roads 1, 2. To reduce the speed of movement and save energy, lifting sections of roads 5, 6 are equipped at the end of inclined surfaces. Vehicles 3, 4 move on inclined surfaces of roads 1, 2 in different directions.

After acceleration of vehicles, the latter fall on the lifting sections 5, 6, where the speed decreases and the vehicles are at certain marks 7, 8 with respect to the horizontal surface. Then again the vehicles get acceleration on an inclined surface, etc.

To change the direction of movement of vehicles, crossings 9, 10, 11, 12, 13 are used on the dividing strip 14, which are located at the beginning of the descent of the vehicle, at the intersection of inclined surfaces 15 and at the upper mark 8.

Changing the direction of movement of the vehicle 3 (to save fuel) occurs at crossings 10, 11 and 13 along the dividing strip 14 counterclockwise, and the vehicle 4 at crossings 12, 11 and 9 also counterclockwise.
