Definitions

  • the invention relates to a transport system with the features of the preamble of claim 1.
  • Such transport systems are known, for example, as so-called rack railways, funicular railways or inclined elevators. If the roadway has different gradients continuously or in sections, it may be necessary to adjust the level of the means of transport, for example a cabin, a car or the like, so that the passengers or the goods to be transported can stand on a horizontal level. In the prior art, elaborately controlled devices, such as spindle lifting or hydraulic units, are used for these level adjustments.
  • a generic transport system in which a chassis can be moved along a road and the means of transport is, on the one hand, articulated on the chassis and, on the other hand, guided along a control track by means of control wheels.
  • Transport systems are known in which the means of transport is rigidly connected to a chassis, which is guided along a road on the one hand and along a guideway on the other.
  • the invention is based on the object of providing a transport system of the type mentioned at the outset, with which the level of the vehicle can be adjusted to different gradients as simply and reliably as possible.
  • the basic idea of the invention is to arrange a guideway along the road, which is very simple and enables the level of the means of transport to be equalized in a fail-safe manner.
  • the transport system according to the invention is a rail-guided system. This means that the roadway is formed by rails along which the vehicle moves.
  • the guide track has at least one guide rail. It is preferred that the guide device has at least one guide roller. Instead of a guide roller, a device sliding on the guide rail, for example a skid, could also be used in the invention.
  • the level control in the transport system according to the invention can therefore preferably be carried out exclusively mechanically, which is associated not only with low manufacturing costs but also with low maintenance costs and is very reliable against faults. Further preferred embodiments of the invention are the subject of the remaining subclaims.
  • FIG. 1 and 2 A first embodiment of a transport system according to the invention is shown, which is arranged, for example, on the slope of a mountain or hill.
  • the transport system has a valley station 1 and a mountain station 2, which are connected to one another via a roadway 3.
  • the roadway 3 has two parallel rails 4 which are mounted on a roadway support 5.
  • the carriageway support 5 is mounted on the slope via foundations 6.
  • a single vehicle 7 can be moved on the roadway 3 or its rails 4, but for representational reasons it is shown in both the valley station 1 and the mountain station 2.
  • the vehicle 7 is pulled by means of a rope 8, which is driven on and unwound on a rope pulley 11 by a motor 9 arranged in the mountain station 2.
  • the drive can also be located on the vehicle itself. In particular, it is also possible to use a drive system like that of a known rack railway.
  • the roadway 3 has two sections 3a, 3b, with the lower section 3a having a greater gradient than the upper section 3b.
  • a guideway 12 runs along the rails 4 on at least one side of the roadway 3. The distance of the guideway 12 from the rail(s) 4, more precisely from the running surface of the rails 4, is different in the two sections 3a and 3b, whereby In the illustrated embodiment, the guide track 12 is arranged essentially below one of the two rails 4. In a preferred embodiment, the lower edge or underside of the rail 4 serves as a guide track 12.
  • the guide track 12 can also be a separate rail that is mounted at a suitable location.
  • Fig. 3 The arrangement for level control of the vehicle 7 of the embodiment of Fig. 1 and 2 is in Fig. 3 shown schematically in simplified form.
  • FIG. 3 It can be seen more precisely that in the lower section 3a of the roadway 3 the distance A of the guideway or guide rail 12 from the rail 4 is larger than in section 3b.
  • a guide roller 13 runs on the guide rail 12.
  • the vehicle 7 has a means of transport 14, for example a cabin for transporting people and/or a container for transporting goods, and a chassis 15.
  • the chassis 15 runs on the rails 4 via chassis rollers 16.
  • the guide roller 13 is mounted at one end of a lever 17, which is mounted on the chassis 15 in its central region via a pivot bearing 18. With its end opposite the guide roller 13, the lever 17 is attached to the frame 19 of the transport means 14. The lever 17, and thus also the guide roller 13 mounted on it, is further connected directly to the frame 19 of the transport means 14 via a connecting element 21.
  • Fig. 3 can be seen in which the vehicle 7 is shown both on the lower section 3a and on the upper section 3b.
  • the means of transport 14 is always in the same horizontal orientation by being pivoted about the pivot bearing 18 relative to the chassis 15 because the distance A between the guide rail 12 and the rail 4 changes.
  • the control device is arranged on both sides next to the vehicle 7.
  • the roadway is designed in the shape of a bridge or arch
  • the roadway support 5 can be, for example, a truss, a solid reinforced concrete support, a hollow support or a combination of these or other known designs.
  • the roadway 3 has three sections 3a, 3b, and 3c, which have different gradients.
  • the first section 3a has, for example, a constant, positive slope with an angle of approximately +45°
  • the second or middle section 3b has a slope with an angle of 0°
  • the third section 3c has a negative slope with an angle of -45 ° on.
  • Continuous, arcuate transitions or sections 3d, 3e are provided between these three sections 3a, 3b, 3c.
  • the guide rails 4 define this course of the roadway 3.
  • 4 guide tracks or guide rails 22, 23 are arranged laterally next to or outside the rails, one guide rail 22 being assigned to the first section 3a and the second guide rail 23 to the third section 3c. In the middle section 3b, the guide rails 22, 23 overlap in terms of their longitudinal extent.
  • the guide rails 22, 23 can in principle be arranged on the same side of the roadway 3, in which case they are then, as in Fig. 4 shown, lie one above the other in the middle section 3b.
  • the guide rails 22, 23 can also lie on opposite sides of the roadway 3, in which case they are in the middle section 3b, as in Fig. 5 shown schematically, can also be at the same height.
  • the vehicle 7 has, as in the embodiment of Fig. 1 to 3 , a chassis 15 which rolls on the rails 4 via chassis rollers 16.
  • the means of transport 14 is pivotally mounted directly on the chassis 15 via a pivot bearing 24.
  • the transport means 14 has two guide rollers 25, 26, one guide roller 25 being assigned to the guide rail 22 and the other guide roller 26 to the guide rail 23.
  • the guide roller 25 When the vehicle 7 is in section 3a, the guide roller 25 is in engagement with the guide rail 22, where the distance A between the guide rail 22 and the rail 4 is also large due to the large gradient of the section 3a. As the vehicle 7 approaches the middle section 3b, the gradient of the roadway 3 decreases continuously, as does the distance A between the guide rail 22 and the rail 4. In the middle area 3b, the guide rail 22 finally crosses the rail 4. This allows the level or the horizontal orientation of the means of transport 14 are kept constant.
  • the guide rails 22, 23 overlap at a length that is greater than the distance between the guide rollers 25, 26 measured in the direction of travel.
  • the guide roller 25 is therefore still in engagement with the guide rail 22 when the guide roller 26 comes into engagement with the guide rail 23. Only then does the guide roller 25 leave the guide rail 22.
  • the level control of the means of transport is subsequently taken over by the guide rail 23 and the guide roller 26, the distance A between the guide rail 23 and the rail 4 increasing to the extent that the slope of the career 3 increases negatively.
  • Fig. 6 essentially corresponds to that of Fig. 4 and 5 , however instead of the U-shaped guide rails is the Fig. 4 and 5 a flat guide rail 27 is provided, which is accommodated in a pair of guide rollers 28.
