Definitions
- This invention relates to an apparatus consisting of an airplane training or amusement device for traveling along a fixed track.
- airplanes are forcibly guided along a driving rail supported above the ground on track supports, and driven by the pilot at various speeds.
- the airplane track is associated with leisure use, but it can also be associated with the use of individual personal transport.
- Single or multi-seat aircraft can be driven on the rail, below the rail, or simultaneously both on and below the trail.
- the scheduled maximum speed is 165 km/h (102.5 ph) ; however 200 km/h is conceivable as well.
- the airplane track provides people with an opportunity to become familiar with the genuine feeling of flying or to fly an airplane on their own. Because the pilot can drive at individual speeds ranging from 0 to 165 km/h on the airplane track, a block and control system is installed that will prevent rear-end collisions involving two or more aircraft.
- closed courses will be driven. However, a shuttle course (aircraft drives back on the same course) is possible as well.
- one type of aircraft is selected, preferably a 4-seater, single-engine type with its original engine, cockpit and cabin interior.
- the visual appearance of arf original aircraft must be preserved at the same time.
- the fuselage is supported in three locations downwards or upwards. These supports transmit all loads from the airframe to a separate undercarriage. This undercarriage is designed to function similar to the construction of vehicles for roller coasters.
- the undercarriage comprises a rigid axle, a connecting part, and a jointed or pivotable axle.
- This jointed axle is designed so that ramps, curves with longitudinal gradients and curves with a cross gradient can be passed free of squeezing or wedging.
- the airframe of the aircraft is supported in two places on the rigid axle, and once within the zone of the swiveling axle.
- a running wheel with a diameter of ⁇ 500 mm, a guide wheel with a diameter of .- 400 mm and a counter wheel with a diameter of ⁇ 300 mm are mounted on each of the rigid and the jointed axles.
- the guide wheels discharge all positive vertical loads that are perpendicular to the rail.
- the running wheels discharge the horizontal loads which are parallel with the rail.
- the counter wheels discharge the negative loads that are perpendicular to the trail. Derailing of the aircraft is consequently not possible.
- the wheels are preferably-polyurethane. Skids are employed within the zone of all three types of wheels. These skids prevent derailing in case of excessive wear or loss of a wheel, and permit the aircraft to continue sliding on the rail. Sheet metal plates are placed in the front and rear of all three types of wheels, which move or clear obstacles from the rails so as to prevent the aircraft from driving over such obstacles and clamping them between the wheels and the rail.
- a braking system e.g. permanent magnets
- a vertical braking fin for transporting the aircraft within the station and on the sidings or parking rails.
- the latter function is assumed by the braking fin as well.
- the vertical fins are as long as the aircraft so that buffers can be arranged in front and in the rear in order to prevent damage to the aircraft in the event airplanes collide in the station or ⁇ on the parking rail or rail sidings. Towing eyes and switching flags are also provided.
- a certain lift is deemed desirable because it reduces the friction between the wheels of the undercarriage and the rail. However, the counter wheels do run up during operation.
- the wing span of the aircraft suspended under the rail is small, so that the frame supports are not too wide.
- the engine output of the airplane has to take into account the weight of the undercarriage and the frictional forces between the wheels and the weight of the undercarriage of about 800 kg. Friction loss is about 2 cm/m; and swivel axis is ⁇ 62.
- a luggage compartment is provided on board, holding about 50 kg luggage.
- the passengers are secured by seat belts and the doors are locked during the drive so that they cannot be opened accidentally.
- the door locks are operated only by the pilot, and the doors are locked prior to starting, unlocking only in the station and from the outside by manual unlocking, or in an emergency (aircraft standing still) unlocking via radio.
- the airframe of aircraft is supported on three points: One support in front plus swivel axle; two supports in rear plus rigid axle. No connection between the axles; or one connection only between the axles.
- Rail system (4) is excluded because of the high speed of the aircraft, the vibration behavior and the problems posed when driving through curves.
- rail system 1 aircraft on the rail
- rail system 2 aircraft below the rail
- rail system (1) open trussed tube system
- rail system 3 rail system 3
- Rail system 2 (welded solid-wall construction) should contain a closed cross sectional area in order to obtain torsional rigidity.
- Rail system 3 (rolled sections) could consist of a rolled section with two spaced rail tubes welded to it (soft in terms of torsion) , or comprise two individual welded sections, strapped, whereby the 3 wheels of the chassis can run on top of/on the side of the flanges of the rolled sections.
- a through-extending truss is recommended for static reasons because of the lower deformation and because of the superior dynamic behavior when drivi-hg over supports.
- a support width of I ⁇ 30 m is achieved with the rail.
- the bottom edge of the rail is located at least 6 meters above the ground with rail system 1, and at least 8.5 meters above the ground in connection with rail systems 2 and 3. This assures a clear space profile underneath the rail track that is adequate for traffic movements below the airplane track. Locally and for visual reasons, the rail also may be substantially higher above the ground; however, this would then influence the construction of the supports.
- the rail may be curved in the vertical plane (over mountains and valleys) ; and it may be curved in the horizontal plane (curves without longitudinal and without transverse gradients) , in which case it is a curved rail.
- the rail may be warped (ramps leading to the curves) and may have cross or longitudinal gradients in the curves, in which case it is a spatially curved rail. Spatially curved rails should be avoided for cost reasons.
- Vertical radii Rv ⁇ 220 m in order not to exceed 2 g in the valley, and to maintain >0 g on the mountain.
- the rail has to be dimensioned for the following influences acting on it:
- the rail has to be calculated with respect to operational strength for at least 20 years.
- the rail must be protected against corrosion based on local requirements. Shock and/or vibration factors have to be taken into account at least by the factor ⁇ if not required higher:
- the most difficult load case will be G( ⁇ - temperature) because long straight sliding pieces are present. However, these sliding pieces must be constructed in such a way that the wheels will not be subjected to excessive wear when driving over such sliding pieces.
- Individual supports made of round tubes or rolled sections are proposed for rail system 1 (airplanes driving on the rail) .
- Frame supports made of round tubes or rolled sections are proposed for rail system 2 (airplanes below the rail) and rail system 3 (airplanes both on and below the rail) .
- Unilateral cantilevers extending from the rail to the supports are conceivable, but unfavorable statically speaking because the rail is highly twisted in that case, among other things. All supports should be braced down to the foundation, specifically via previously concrete-encased anchors, so that support sinking, if any, can be corrected, and because this makes the installation simpler.
- the supports and the rails have to dimensioned for operational strength for the load cases speci ied for the rail system.
- supports are arranged in areas where vehicles can drive on the ground, the supports have to be protected against collision (impact) loads, or mathematical proof demonstrating their strength must be furnished.
- the protection against impingement can be realized also through constructional measures such as:
- connections rail-to-rail, support-to-rail and support-to-support are designed as screw joints because connections welded on the construction site have drawbacks.
- At least one rail switch (sliding platform) is required.
- An aircraft, secured, is driven from the main track sideways by engine on a straight rail section.
- a second straight rail section then closes the track immediately so that the operation is interrupted only for a short time.
- the rail switch platform with the aircraft is driven past a number of sidings or parking rails at the head end, and the aircraft is then pushed by motor force onto a certain rail siding.
- Several sidings or parking tracks should be available, so that access to individual aircraft is more flexible.
- the aircraft are put into service analogously in the reverse sequence.
- the gap created in the main rail by the rail switch has to be secured in such a way that the operation can be started again only after the rail section has closed the gap again in a secured manner.
- Each aircraft should be equipped with at least one parking brake on the running wheels that can be activated by the pilot (and/or operator) in order to prevent the following:
- the system would function also with fixed permanent magnets and a displaceable vertical fin.
- Another conceivable emergency brake could comprises several brakes installed in the 4 running wheels, whereby triggering at the start and end of the blocks by the pilot has to be assured independently of the "fail safe" system.
- each aircraft may be present in each block of the airplane track at the time. Exceptions include the rescue case,, in which a second aircraft (rescue vehicle) is permitted to drive into the block for towing.
- a second aircraft rescue vehicle
- each aircraft has to be monitored individually, e.g. by GPS and/or an approximation switch and/or spacing controls using a beam and reflectors.
- an interrogation is carried out at the start of an entire block length whether the respective block is occupied by an aircraft. If the block is occupied, the aircraft wanting to enter is automatically slowed down (braked) and stopped. If the block is clear, the aircraft drives into the block and reports this block occupied. When the aircraft drives out of the block, it reports the block clear rearwards.
- the block system has to be a "fail safe" system.
- Waiting or holding fields are available in the station, on the rail switch and on the siding track for one aircraft in each case.
- the waiting or holding fields are individually realized like blocks and are included in the control system, as is the locking of the rail switches.
- the filling level of the fuel tanks of the aircraft should be controlled as well so that no operational disturbances are caused by empty fuel tanks.
- Two-radio communication with each aircraft is available from and to the control tower.
- each aircraft is equipped with a system of approximation measurement (beam and reflector) which, upon approaching the distance of the braking path, switches off in the aircraft the ignition, interrupts the feed of fuel and triggers a braking action.
- beam and reflector a system of approximation measurement
- the rescue vehicle or vehicles are controlled and monitored by the control system as well.
- the block system prevents two or more aircraft from rear-ending each other.
- At least 1 fire extinguisher is available on board of each aircraft; furthermore, a two-way radio system for communicating with the control tower, as well as a loudspeaker have to be available on board of the aircraft.
- a rope ladder is arranged in a fixed manner within the area of each door of the aircraft, with a length at least conforming to the greatest height of the rail track above the ground.
- An aircraft broken down on the track can be towed only by a rescue vehicle approaching from ahead of the track.
- the vertical stress to which passengers are exposed amounts to l»g over the longest period of time. 2»g may occur for a short time when driving through valleys. The stress may be close to 0»g when driving over mountains. 1.2»g may occur for a short time in the curves.
- accelerations and decelerations occur due the driving behavior of the pilot. These accelerations and decelerations are limited by the power of the engine and the maximum braking moment. In the event of emergency braking in the block system, 0.7»g occur, which forces or throws the passenger forward into the seat belt.
- the aircraft is operated by the pilot by starting the engine, accelerating the aircraft, braking, and shutting down the engine.
- the maximum speed of 165 km/h cannot be exceeded by the pilot.
- the operation with passengers may be started only after the track has been checked (test drive with rescue and maintenance vehicle) by the operating personnel:
- the check has to include also the required clear space or clearance profile, among other things, i.e. branches of trees may have grown again and may have moved into the clear space or clearance by wind.
- the rail must always be free of foreign objects, which may include accumulating snow, fresh frost and icing, which would have to be removed during the test drive, and removed also from the braking fins, if need be, because the braking safety would otherwise no longer be assured.
- a log must list all further tests and checks which the personnel are required to carry out based on the following schedules: (1) Daily (2) Weekly
- the airplane track can be operated also at night and with poor visibility because the operational sequence is secured fully automatically and overrides any individual interference on part of the pilot.
- the visibility also with artificial lighting
- the aircraft should be equipped with lights permitting illumination over a distance greater than the longest braking distance, and with full flight lighting.
- the operation may continue also with rain.
- the operation should be shut down if the visibility falls short of the required value with strong rain.
- the station is covered and has space for at least 6 aircraft lined up one after the other.
- the exit should be located within an area removed from the entrance in such a way that the aircraft can be cleaned in between, if necessary, and that minor maintenance or service work can be carried out.
- the area of the parking rails or sidings is covered and the area where the airplanes are fueled is specially secured and protected and equipped with fire extinguishers and/or a sprinkler system.
- Smoking is prohibited within the area of the station and conduct signs or pictograms for / pilots and passengers have to be posted in a visible manner, in several languages, if need be.
- Transport units with brakes are provided in the waiting fields, in the station and on the parking rails or sidings.
- This may be air tires with transmission and reversible electric motors with brakes. The air tires are engaged with a sword of the undercarriage of the airplanes.
- At least one special rescue and maintenance vehicle is built, for example, a gasoline or diesel operated vehicle capable of driving forward and in reverse, with which the rails and the upper areas of the track supports can be inspected.
- This vehicle should have room for 6 persons, i.e. for 4 passengers to be evacuated and 2 operators.
- the track in front or ahead of this aircraft is clear, so that the rescue vehicle can drive from the station backwards to the inoperative aircraft.
- the rescue vehicle then takes the inoperative aircraft in tow and tows it to the station. If the aircraft is no longer capable of moving at all, the passengers transfer to the rescue vehicle under supervision of the 2 operators and are transported to the station. At least one rescue vehicle has to be available for each station.
- the maintenance and service intervals are specified in a log (to be generated) and have to be adhered to.
- the entire course of the rail system can be followed on the ground by ground vehicles so that passengers can be lowered to the ground also in cases of quick evacuation.
- a mobile radio is available on board of the aircraft, which the pilot has to take with him when leaving the aircraft via the rope ladder, so that the pilot and/or the control tower can get into contact with the passengers on the ground.
- the airplane track is built on supports and therefore requires only little space on the ground.
- the airplanes are equipped with gasoline engines and generate only as much noise as small sports aircraft normally do.
- the airplane track including the station can be set up-only in undeveloped areas. Within the area of the station with waiting passengers, the engine of the aircraft is not running, so that the noise is actually generated only before reaching the station by braking and within the station by starting operations. Passengers who wish to ride on the airplane track will expect such noise.
- the fueling area and the maintenance and service area for example for oil changes, is constructed in such a way that no foreign matter can seep into the ground (ground water) .
- ⁇ T 100 seconds . - 75%, 3 of 4 seats occupied on the average
- an aircraft can start every 50 seconds.
- the slowest aircraft determines the block length because switch-offs may occur.
- System 1 aircraft on the rail
- steel structure rail and track supports
- Wind loads Earthquake loads Snow loads, icing ⁇ -temperature Ground conditions Since the present project involves a novel type of track, at least one prototype of the aircraft including the undercarriage has to be built and tested under the operating conditions, emergency run conditions etc.
- All safety components such as, for example brakes, approximation systems etc. have to be tested under all kinds of different weather and application conditions (full aircraft, empty aircraft, power failure, emergency shutdown, etc.).
- the rescue operations have to be tested under conditions as closely as possible to a real life situation.
- the airplane track can be built and operated throughout the year in an operationally safe manner.
