PURPOSE:To improve the intake of air and the efficiency of exhausting, and to reduce noises along the line by installing a wind path having an unequal cross section under the main body floor of a high-speed moving body and dispersing and arranging a device converting wind-force energy into energy utilized for objects except the propulsion of the high-speed moving body. CONSTITUTION:A car body is placed on trucks 2 at the end sections of a magnetically levitated vehicle 1 in the vehicle 1. Considerable space is formed between each truck 2, and a ram-air-turbine generator 6 is disposed by utilizing the space. When the magnetically levitated vehicle 1 is equipped with the ram- air-turbine generator 6, air under the floor of the magnetically levitated car is passed through a wind path 3 having a required unequal cross section, throttled by a ram-air-turbine inlet, and discharged from a wind-path exhaust port 5 at the rear of a turbine. A pitch conversion function is incorporated into the turbine 8, and a generation unit 9 is arranged in a coaxial manner with a turbine shaft, and housed in the cowl of the generation unit 9, in which air resistance is lowered. Wind-path exhaust ports 4, 5 can also correspond to travelling in both directions. |
