ELEKTROMAGNETISCHE SCHWEBEANORDNUNG

摘要

An electromagnetic suspension arrangement for electromagnetically supporting a body movable along a roadway such as for an electromagnetically suspended railway or the like is disclosed. The arrangement includes at least one elongated conductor coil mounted on the body and having a mid portion and respective end portions integral with and bent away from the mid portion. The mid portion includes two mutually adjacent, longitudinally extending conductor segments. A ferromagnetic rail is mounted on the roadway and disposed between the segments for coacting with the conductor coil to develop electromagnetic forces for suspending the body relative to the rail. If required, the suspension arrangement can also include subsidiary structure to provide lateral stabilization and additional lifting force.
