wherein the vehicle is equipped with a horizontal driving wheel or brake pad, which squeezes the main rail on the outside, inside, or both sides of the main rail or cooperates with the horizontal guide wheel to squeeze the main rail to achieve driving or braking; the horizontal driving wheel or brake pad is raised in the turnout section, diamond intersection section, crossing section, and temperature expansion regulator section to avoid collision with the main rail or other objects.
18 . The rail structure of steel rail track and steel wheel vehicle of claim 17 ,
wherein at the front of the turnout section, diamond intersection section, crossing section, and temperature expansion regulator section, a rising safety block is installed on the track; when the vehicle is running, the collision safety mechanism of the horizontal driving wheel or brake pad collides with the rising safety block, causing the horizontal driving wheel or brake pad to automatically release the main rail and rise, and then keep in the raised position to continue driving so as not to hit the main rail or other objects; after the vehicle passes the turnout section, diamond intersection section, crossing section, and temperature expansion regulator section, the horizontal driving wheel or brake pad on the vehicle collides with the descending safety block installed on the track again, or triggers optical, electrical, magnetic and other sensors, automatically or manually descends to the outside or inside of the main rail to guide, prevent derailment, or squeeze the main rail for driving or braking.
19 . The rail structure of steel rail track and steel wheel vehicle of claim 15 ,
wherein the rail vehicle is equipped with a remote operating controller, which operates and controls the turnout switch machine or diamond cross auxiliary rail rotating machinery through wired or wireless communication to perform track change guidance or traffic guidance.
20 . The rail structure of steel rail track and steel wheel vehicle of claim 15 ,
wherein the main steel wheels with cylindrical treads are independent rolling wheels, and the steering mechanism of the main steel wheel pairs, or the independent steering mechanism of each main steel wheel, are installed on the bogie, or directly installed on the car body when there is no bogie; when on a curve, the front and rear wheel pairs or front and rear wheels have the same steering angle and opposite directions; the front and rear bogies of the car body have the same steering angle and opposite directions; the value of the steering angle matches the turning radius of the track.Cited by (0)
