Stabilised control for magnetic suspended railway - has laterally spring-damped guidance electromagnets to keep vehicle on line

摘要

The lateral guidance control for the magnetic suspended track vehicle has two rows of electromagnets under the vehicle to interact with two rows of fixed magnets in the top of the track. At leat one of the vehicle rows of magnets is laterally damped to compensate for lateral vibrations. The damped electromagnet (2) is linked to its support by a lateral spring (13) and by a damper (14). Any displacement of the vehicle causes the magnet to be pulled aside by the track magnet. The spring fore pulls the vehicle back into line.
