Abstract:
There is provided a differential propulsion mechanism including two or more concentric and mutually counter-rotating first wheels (4, 6, 8, 10), mutually reacting and balancing the torque of a motor drive (20) interacting with the wheels. The motor drive has a stator attached to one of the first wheels to power a first wheel over a first track (12, 14, 16, 18) , a rotor coupled to a mechanical link, at least indirectly connecting the rotor with a second of the two or more first wheels to power the second wheel over a second track, and a concentric connecting device affixed for coupling a payload thereto or for coupling the mechanism itself to another device.

Abstract:
The Terreplane Transport System is a ground-based transportation comprised of flying vehicles pulled by a propulsion line. An important design feature of the most preferred system is that the propulsion line only experiences longitudinal forces during flight making low-cost propulsion lines possible. A propulsion carriage engages the propulsion line to create acceleration. A connection arm connects the vehicle to the propulsion carriage whereby the cumulative interaction includes the ability to convert impacting and overflowing air into lift complete with control to provided controlled flight based on the longitudinal force conveyed from the propulsion line to the propulsion carriage. The preferred method of conveying the longitudinal force is through linear motors utilizing novel longitudinally asymmetric coils.
Abstract:
A transportation system including a tubular rail assembly, a displacement device with at least one helical propulsion system located in a first position to be received in one rail and movable to a second position to be received in another rail, a switching mechanism engaged to each propulsion system for movement between the first and second positions, and a transportation device outside of the rail assembly and attached to the displacement device. Also, a displacement device with at least one pair of support members each supporting a helical propulsion system, and a biasing member circumferentially biasing the support member of each pair in opposite directions. Also, a displacement device with at least one tubular support member surrounding the body and circumferentially movable with respect thereto and supporting a set of angled wheels, and a switching mechanism engaged to each member for actuating the circumferential movement.
Abstract:
Die schienengebundene Förderanlage ist mit selbstfahrenden Fahrgestell (6) ausgerüstet, das mindestens ein von einem Motor (28) antreibbares und mit einer Schiene (2) zusammenwirkendes Reib-(20) und/oder Zahnrad (22) sowie einen Lastenträger (40) aufweist. Die Schiene (2) ist - bezogen auf eine horizontale Anordnung - im Querschnitt aufrecht stehend ausgebildet und angeordnet und das Fahrgestell (6) ist im Wesentlichen seitlich der Schiene (2) angeordnet. Das Fahrgestell (6) stützt sich mit oberen und unteren, Querkräfte aufnehmenden Rädern (8, 10) und weiteren, Vertikalkräfte aufnehmenden Rädern (16) an der Schiene (2) ab. Der Lastenträger (40) ist auf der der Schiene (2) abgewandten Seite sowie um eine senkrecht zur Ebene der Schiene (2) ausgerichteten Achse (42) verschwenkbar am Fahrgestell (6) angeordnet. Eine Verbesserung der Förderanlage insbesondere hinsichtlich der Bauhöhe wird dadurch erreicht, dass die Schiene (2) an der Oberseite ein nach oben offenes U-Profil ( 12) für die oberen Räder (8) und an der Unterseite ein nach unten offenes U-Profil ( 14) für die unteren Räder (10) zur Aufnahme der Querkräfte sowie ein seitliches gegen das Fahrgestell (6, 6a) offenes U-Profil (18) für weitere Räder (16) zur Aufnahme der Vertikalkräfte aufweist, wobei die Räder als Laufräder ausgebildet sind.
Abstract:
The installation comprises at least an autonomous pallet (10) carrying driving means, preferably in the form of electric brake-motor (14), said pallet being provided with wheels (15, 16, 30, 31) to circulate on a network of rails conducting the supply current of the motor and the control signals for the driving means of the pallet. The pallet comprises two beams (11 and 12) and a plate (13) provided with two centering pins (21). The installation is convenient in that it is flexible and may be adapted to all utilizations, particularly because the pallets may be processed individually by a central data processing unit.
