Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] (Industrial Application Field) This invention is suitable for cases where it is necessary to connect independently from other traffic, especially in a short time, such as between an airport far away from a city and a city. , relates to roads exclusively for automobiles that utilize road space.

(Prior Art) Conventional automobile roads have been constructed on the ground, by digging tunnels underground, or by constructing elevated roads in urban areas.

(Problems to be solved by the invention) Today, when transportation has entered the age of speed, the main body of transportation has become automobiles, and in a situation where conventional roads cannot achieve the purpose of increasing speed, The demand for dedicated expressways is growing in various regions.

In particular, aircraft, which have become more popular due to the wave of speed improvements, tend to be built in areas far from cities, as it is almost impossible to construct or expand airports in urban areas due to noise pollution, etc. The transportation of users from cities to airports and back is a major problem, and an expressway exclusively for automobiles is absolutely necessary to connect the area.However, traditional road construction methods have been problematic due to soaring land prices, noise, and exhaust gas. Construction of new expressways is almost impossible due to pollution problems such as:

It is an object of the present invention to solve the above-mentioned problems and provide a road exclusively for automobiles that can be easily constructed at low cost and free from pollution.

(Means for Solving the Problems) The present invention for achieving the above-mentioned object is to provide two large-diameter bridges for outbound and return trips parallel to the road, which are suspended or suspended above the road on appropriate support structures. This is an automobile-only road that utilizes road space, with a large-diameter pipe and a road surface on which cars can drive.

It is most effective for this expressway to be a direct connection between two points, but it can also be used as a general expressway if it branches out and connects three or more points directly, or if it connects with another road. It is also possible.

Also, since it is similar to a full-line tunnel, it is naturally equipped with lighting, air intake and exhaust equipment, emergency communication equipment, etc., and may also have transparent windows.

Furthermore, each large-diameter pipe should be wide enough for at least two cars to pass through in parallel.

(Function) In the construction of the motorway of the present invention, the space on the road is used instead of expensive land, so the construction cost is reduced, and the construction period is shortened because no land acquisition is required, and it also supports large diameter pipes. In order to do this, structures with legs are installed on both sides of the road at appropriate intervals, but these structures can also be used to string electric wires, telephone lines, etc., or run water pipes. There will also be some extra benefits.

In addition, since pipes are used, they have the unique strength of pipes, and since the two large-diameter pipes each allow one-way traffic, head-on collisions do not occur, and the inner walls of the large-diameter pipes are similar to guardrails. Since it has the effect of
Even if you make a mistake in operating the steering wheel, the side of the car will simply rub against the inner wall of the large-diameter pipe, and no falling accident will occur, so the incidence of serious accidents that lead to death will be significantly reduced, and safe car traffic will be achieved. In addition, there are advantages such as exhaust gas is not dissipated into the air and can be treated centrally, noise does not harm the environment, and there is no interference from weather such as dense fog.

(Example) Examples will be described below based on the drawings.

1 is a road, which is used for general traffic.

Reference numeral 2 denotes support structures, which stand on both sides of the road and are constructed of reinforced concrete or steel structures, spaced apart at appropriate intervals. Fig. 1 shows an arch-shaped structure, and Fig. 2 shows a gate-shaped structure.

3 is a large-diameter pipe, and two of them are suspended in the space above the road 1 and parallel to the road 1 on a support structure 2 as shown in Fig. 1, or as shown in Fig. 2, and one is used for the outbound route. , both are set up as one-way traffic, with the other being the return route. This installation shall be at a height that does not obstruct traffic on Road 1 passing below.

4 is a road surface, which is a floor placed inside the large diameter pipe 3.

The two large-diameter pipes 3 mentioned above are connected in parallel and in contact with each other to increase the strength of the beam and form the support structure 2.
Although the illustration shows a method in which the cost is reduced by widening the interval between the pipes and reducing the number of pipes installed, it is also possible to separate the two large-diameter pipes 3 and install them separately.

(Effects of the invention) As explained above, this invention speeds up independent of other traffic, has low installation cost, shortens construction period, is free from pollution and is safe, and is also capable of power transmission, communication, and water transmission. It has many effects such as being able to accommodate other public facilities such as
This makes it possible to provide a road exclusively for automobiles that utilizes the road space that constitutes a double-decker traffic road with innovative functional beauty.

Claims (1)

[Claims] 1 Above the road, two large-diameter pipes are installed for the outbound and return trips parallel to the road, suspended or suspended from appropriate support structures, and a road surface on which vehicles can drive is created within these large-diameter pipes. A special feature is a road exclusively for automobiles that utilizes road space.
