Transfer railway for guide track intersection

Abstract

Abstract PURPOSE: To enable installation of both rightward and leftward transfer railways in length for one transfer at guide track intersection by arranging a rotary guide track at the center of the intersection of transfer rails crossing with each other so that respective points can elevationally displace. CONSTITUTION: A vehicle approaching from the direction of an arrow is transferred leftwardly from stationary guide rails 18 through movable curved guide rails 28 disposed at raised position, rotary guide rails 27 matched in engaged state with the rails 28, and guide rails 29 disposed at raised position into stationary guide rails 22. In this case, both movable linear and curved guide rails 19 and 31 are lowered to the position of the same plane as the road surface not to disturb the running right side wheel of the vehicle. Both movable curved and linear guide rails 30 and 24 are also lowered not to disturb the running left side wheel of the vehicle. COPYRIGHT: (C)1979,JPO&Japio
