Description

TRAVELING ROADS, CONVEYER BELT ROADS AND FUTURE RAILWAYS IMPROVED
FD2LD OF INVENTION
This invention of Traveling Roads, Conveyer Belt Roads and Future Railways improved is in continuation to application no 2635/DEL/2014, dated 12th Sep, 2014 by way of providing number of travelling chassis running on steel tracks/profiled tracks laid on dedicated routes to transport vehicles of all kinds and men and materials, the chassis to have folding or ejecting spikes/border on sides of chassis to secure vehicles, electromagnetic chucks to hold vehicles after boarding, adjustable holders for securing tyres of vehicles in troughs of channels as additional safety measures, heating & cooling system, cranes, fencing/cameras/sensors and solar cells on fencing to run the system on solar energy as well, The system also relates to activating electromagnetic chucks when all vehicles like cars, transport vehicles, buses, trucks containers, boxes, goods and all kinds of items are on board to hold vehicles while in travel and the magnetic chucks are de- electrified at next destination to release the vehicles quickly from system. The Traveling Roads, Conveyer Belt Roads and Future Railways Improved- provided along the roads/within roads in cities or high ways etc. for Inter-city, with in city or from ports, airports etc to give ride to all kinds of vehicles, men and materials. The system running on electricity/ pollution free fuels/solar power, This invention also relates to reducing the cost of travel, pollution, reducing congestions, accidents and role of drivers requiring constant vigilance while driving haphazardly on roads occupying large spaces in between each vehicle including doing away with the requirement of broad roads/highways as whole of traffic can run smoothly and efficiently on dedicated Traveling Roads, Conveyer Belt Roads and Future Railways Improved in totally fenced route for hassle free travel at high speed without obstructions, having sensors and cameras to mitigate intrusion and sabotage.
PRIOR ART
There are systems known in the art where small and big platforms in single and multi - stories are created on the chassis of trucks and trains etc to transport new and old cars, motor bikes etc in numbers in place of driving old and new cars etc individually over long distances and to save especially new cars from getting damaged by moving on roads and in rail travel.
Yet there are systems known in the art where conveyer belts are used to transport bulk and small quantities of materials in factories and from mines etc The conveyer belts are also in use for stone crushers and for other uses.
There are also systems known in art where travelators are provided in Malls. Airports, Railway Stations etc where visitors and passengers can stand on moving travelators to travel from one location to other.
There are also systems known in the art where goods trains are carting vehicles, tanks and other goods on dedicated railway lines created for railway networks all over the world.
The disadvantage of using present platforms and conveyer belts is that these facilities can be used to transport smaller numbers of vehicles to long and short distances while conveyer belts can be used for transport of luggage and materials for airports, factories and other places in confined spaces and for specific purposes only.
The other disadvantage of using platforms on trucks is that the trucks again need fossil fuels to run and pollute the atmosphere.
The other disadvantage of using goods trains to transport vehicles etc from one station to other is the difficulty in transferring the vehicles etc from roads to trains and undue time it takes to transfer the vehicles to goods trains and also need to tie the vehicles to train body.
The primary objective of present invention is to provide efficient ride to all kinds of existing vehicle traffic and goods plying on roads to shift on to or get off as and when required from The Traveling Roads, Conveyer Belt Roads and Future Railways Improved in shortest possible time, in smooth- obstruction free, pollution free environment.
Yet another objective of this invention is to provide stable infrastructure for present haphazard traffic to run and ride on disciplined dedicated track in single or multiple lines or in multiple levels and utilize lesser road spaces by placing vehicles and goods -neck to neck on The Traveling Roads, Conveyer Belt Roads and Future Railways Improved
Yet another objective of this invention is to reduce congestions on roads which not only cause stoppages of large traffics on roads in running conditions of engines which not only spread pollution in atmosphere but utilize the fast depleting fossil fuels under earth with out any purpose. The burning of fossil fuels, without any purpose on transports; puts a lot of burden on individuals, Private and Government Bodies including unnecessary pollution.
Yet another objective of present invention is to reduce the travel time for vehicular traffic on roads by providing shifting facility for present traffic to shift on to the fast Traveling Roads, Conveyer Belt Roads and Future Railways Improved.
Yet another objective of present invention is to reduce stress level of present vehicular drivers who have to constantly remain vigilant while driving and even fight the sleepiness in night times. By shifting present traffic on roads on to the Traveling Roads, Conveyer Belt Roads and Future Railways Improved the role of drivers will reduce drastically till the destination. After coming out of the system it will be short distance for drivers to drive.
Yet another objective of this invention is to reduce the accidents on roads, highways and else whereas due to high speed on high ways, the accident of one vehicle leads to hitting of number of following and adjacent vehicles. If The Traveling Roads, Conveyer Belt Roads and Future Railways Improved provides ride to all traffic on roads on dedicated, unhindered track, the chances of accidents will become very rare and need for high way's illumination will become less important.
At the outset of the description, which follows, it is to be understood that the ensuing description only illustrates a particular form of this invention. However, such a particular form is only an exemplary embodiment, and without intending to imply any limitations on the scope of this invention. Accordingly the description is to be understood as an exemplary embodiment and teaching of the invention and not intended to be taken restrictively DESCRIPTION
In accordance with this invention the Traveling Roads, Conveyer Belt Roads and Future Railway improved consists of tracks created out of Reinforced Cement Concrete (RCC) in rectangular or square shape with cut in center vertically to create two walls with base intact. The rectangular or square shaped track has adequate thickness of walls. The top walls have profiled top to adjust a set of three wheels, while a fourth wheel plies on bottom of track.
One steel wheel plies on steel tracks on width of the top wall, while the second rubber wheel plies on inner side of wall and the third rubber wheel plies below the top wall in cut area on the thickness of side walls of the rectangular or square RCC track.
In all the system consists of a set of three wheels at the end of one axle point of each axle which otherwise has one wheel for normal vehicles like cars, trucks, buses and present Railway system etc. To provide initial acceleration to the system a fourth rubber wheel is provided on bottom of RCC track or elsewhere.
At present various systems like Mono rails use two wheels at one end of axle on RCC track and Track Guided System but our system uses a set of three wheels in the way Roller coaster systems use.
The top wheels can provide traction and move all the coaches in case of future Railways. The top wheels practically will take the load of all dead weights and live loads. The side wheels provided will act as the guides to the moving loads to remain confined in track and follow the route of the track.
The third wheel at the bottom of the top wall of the track provides necessary support and counter balance to the moving loads on the track to remain on the track, while on speed, as the air pressure built on speed under the chassis of the moving loads tries to uplift and fly off all the moving loads which consist of the chassis as well as the riding vehicles, materials, passengers or the future trains etc. .
The initial momentum can also be provided by using rack and gear system or rubber Tyre and corrugated tracks provided at the center of track at bottom or elsewhere up to certain distance on stations /platforms.
There is very little gap provided between the RCC track and the platforms for all vehicles to board /get off the Traveling Roads, Conveyer Belt Roads and Future Railways Improved.
The system has normal electric motors, gear boxes, signaling system etc as it exists in existing railways /elevated mass transport systems/goods trains etc but current collectors can be copper pipes/aluminum pipes with pulleys as used in Mono rails etc.
The top platforms of Traveling Roads, Conveyer Belt Roads and Future Railways Improved has separate channels carved in such a way that small as well as big vehicles can dip in troughs of channels while boarding and remain depressed while in motion. The troughs have electromagnetic chucks which can come up by pneumatic pressure and remain activated to hold instantly and continuously the vehicles while in motion, the electromagnetic force can be de-activated once the system reaches next stations /platforms en-route to release the vehicles instantly. Folding /ejecting spikes/ border fencing can be provided on sides of platforms of system for vehicles to not go off the platforms in case of failure of electromagnetic chucks or failure of any other system while in motion. The spikes/border fencing can be pulled down or folded for vehicles to get off the platforms when on next station/platform.
The troughs in the chassis can also have supports coming up and going down or move in front and go back by pneumatic forces or by other methods when ever required to keep the wheels of vehicles in place by sandwiching the wheels between the moving supports as provided. These supports can be in addition to electromagnetic chicks as double support for safety of vehicles while in motion.
The RCC track can have cranes, fencing with cameras and sensors for securing the system from sabotage/intrusion of any other kind of vehicles/ birds/animals etc and solar cells can be provided on roof of fencing and on sides for system to run on solar energy as and when it is feasible.
The fencing can be one storey or the fencing can be in multiple levels to increase the surface area of solar cells to meet the power requirement of system Reflectors can also be provided on sides of fencing to keep the solar cells fully active when sun changes directions during the day and one side gets the shade.
The solar cells can also be provided on fencing provided along the routes of present railway system of the world to reduce dependence of existing Railways on electricity to reduce pollution from world.
The existing buses/ trucks can also ply on dedicated route having fencing to install solar cells to even run modified buses/trucks etc on solar power the way travelling roads can travel.
A duct runs throughout the length of system which carries hot and cool air as per requirements of weather conditions. The cool or hot air can be provided to all vehicles while in travel through vertical flexible pipes fixed to duct and shoots provided at top of flexible pipe which can in turn provide cool and hot air through one of the window or through multiple windows of vehicles. The shoot can be designed to fit in windows of different kinds temporarily.
In case of stoppage or failure of any vehicle on traveling roads, conveyer belt roads and future railways improved. The same can be pushed manually to roads or a traveling chain block or moving crane or individual crane or chain block provided for each chassis or between many chassis can remove jammed vehicle or re-moveable chain block can be provided To on load and off load vehicular traffic ,the traveling roads, conveyer belt roads and future railways improved are stopped but to off load and load materials or passengers at identified stations or locations en-route the track ,a track changing mechanism is provided, it consists of a set of tracks, one track at the top at track level and second track for different route at the bottom of the top track. To change the tracks the track set is turned up side down to change the tracks
For a better understanding of the nature of this invention and to show how the same may be carried into effect, reference will now be made to the accompanying drawings which will make the working of the system more clear. DETAILED DESCRIPTION
Fig(l) shows -1 as steel wheel- responsible for providing movement to all dead weights as well as live loads ,- 2 side wheel or rubber tyre ^providing guidance to all loads to follow the track wheel, -3 bottom steel wheel or rubber tyre under the RCC track to keep and maintain balance for all loads to remain on the track on high speed when air pressure tries to push all loads up wards as well as at low speed ,- 4 current conductor. 5- pulley running on current conductor, -6 cable providing current to motor-7 , -9 rubber tyre running on rough track- 10 when ever required on stations or platforms at the start of travelling roads. -11 is the pre-designed Reinforced cement concrete (R.C.C.) track which houses set of three wheels , -1, -2 &-3 . -12 is steel track fixed on RCC track.- 13 is platform of travelling road which has ejecting/folding border -14 fixed on platform - having car -15 on the platform which travels, -16 is the car waiting to ride on platform of travelling road and - 17 is the car disembarked from travelling road. -18 is raised platform for loading cars/vehicles, 19 is the good earth or filling in RCC platform -18, -20 is the raised platform for disembarking cars/ vehicles from platform- 13. -21 is natural ground on which RCC track is laid. -22 is the fencing provided around the RCC track to not let even birds to enter the travelling route while in motion. -23 are the solar cells provided on the top of fencing and /or on sides of the fencing. -24 is trough/depressed portion on platform- 13 for allowing trucks/buses to settle in troughs while in travel and -25 is trough/depressed portion on platform- 13 for cars and small vehicles etc. -26 is magnetic chuck to hold the vehicles after vehicles have boarded on plat form -13.. the magnetic chucks rise when vehicles have to be held by pneumatic force provided by air pressure pipe -27 running through out the length of the travelling road and come down in chassis when vehicles have to be released again after pneumatic pressure is reduced by air pressure pipes-27. The movement of travelling road is like railways running at present with all mechanism as existing but two additional wheels -2 & -3 keep the travelling road always on track and never derail like in roller coasters. The derailment otherwise is common problem in railways. For security and safety cameras-28 are provided on fencing -22 or elsewhere and sensors -29 are also provided along the route to identify intrusion or sabotage locations. -30 is the duct which runs throughout the entire length of the system and carries cool and hot air as per weather conditions which can be provided to vehicles through vertical flexible pipes-31 and shoots -32 provided at top of vertical pipes .Cranes are provided with in system or away from system. -33 are the moving supports operated by pneumatic force to move close to wheels from front and back to hold wheels in place while in motion and go away when destination is arrived to free the wheels for driver to go off the system after pneumatic chucks are also de-activated. The side fencing 14 is also removed / folded to make way for vehicles to de-board.
Fig 2 shows how the vehicles-2 will get on and get off the travelling flat chassis- 1 travelling on RCC track -3. The travelling traffic 11 on road-9 will divert to raised platform 5 through ramp -8. The traffic already on chassis -1 will get off to platform -6 after the magnetic chucks are de-electrified to release the vehicles-2 and also the spikes /folding border- 10 fixed on chassis- 1 is folded down. The forward moving and back tracking supports 14 are also removed from pressing the tyres of vehicles. The vehicles-2 goes out of chassis through bridge -4 provided on chassis- 1 itself. Fencing -7 fixed around the track-3 has solar cells -12 to provided power to the system to run when possible. -13 the drivers cabin to keep check on everything and control the system on board. There can be single cabin or multiple cabins on board. The whole of transport can be controlled from remote control center as well. Fig 3 shows modules of platforms-3 and modules of tracks-5 placed on cement concrete bed -2 which is casted on plain ground -1 created to lay the travelling road tracks and platforms on ground. The modules are pre-casted in factories of desired lengths and are placed on cement concrete bed. The joints -4 of platforms-3 and tracks-5 are filled with cement concrete mixture to create solid joints.
Fig 4 shows future railway which can have coaches -5 which can run at much higher speed with very less dead weight because of three wheels below the track. The future railway can have all steel wheels- 1 running on steel track-2 with rubber/steel wheels-3 fixed on side of RCC track -8 and rubber/steel wheel-4 below the profiled RCC track. The track can be fixed on ground as shown in Fig -1 or can be elevated using columns-7 provided at required heights above ground. Fencing-6 can also be fixed to protect the tracks. The railways can thus be reformed to increase speeds of trains and to protect the future train system from derailment and sabotage -9 shows solar cells which can also be provided on the fencing to run future Railways on solar power as well.
Fig 5 shows view of future traveling roads where the traveling roads can be provided on sides of roads or two travelling roads can be provided on two sides of central verge of roads. The traveling roads can also be provided away from roads as shown in FIG -2. The travelling roads can have cars, trucks and buses plying on same travelling road or separate traffic can run on separate tracks.
FIG.6 shows a loop with hypothetical names of stations where the traveling roads, conveyer belt roads and future railways improved will halt to load/unload the vehicular/materials/passengers etc.
FIG 7 shows even the existing traffic of Railways, Buses & Trucks etc can be driven by solar power by providing single level fencing tunnel or multi-level fencing runnel around the routes of Railway Trains, dedicated lanes of Buses/Trucks on road level or at elevation. By providing fencing around these trains /vehicles, it will be possible to install solar panels/ solar sheets/solar paint etc on these fencing tunnels to generate solar energy and utilize this energy to run the existing transport using electric motors fixed to individual coaches in case of Railway Trains or single motor for number of train coaches. The buses can also run on solar power by fixing electric motors to individual chassis of each bus or single motor for number of buses in train form or directly fixing electric motors in buses and trucks which can run on dedicated steel tracks by changing the rubber tyres of buses and trucks to steel wheels like the ones used in Railway.
