62 Method and apparatus for transporting vehicle bodies, and vehicle assembling system US100383 1987-09-24 US4937929A 1990-07-03 Kunio Nokajima; Mituaki Hirasaka; Yasuhiro Yamamoto; Yuji Ikeda; Masayasu Arakawa; Yoshimasa Oota
In a vehicle assembling line in which parts are assembled to a vehicle body while the body is passed through each of working stations by a plurality of transporting means, the vehicle body is positioned and supported by a pallet and transported by each of the transporting means, wherein transferring of the body between the transporting means is carried out through the pallet. A transporting path, on which a self-travel carriage as the transporting means travels, is laid within a pit concavely provided below a floor plate of a working floor. Arranged above the floor plate are a carriage frame, a lift table and a turn rest for supporting the pallet, which constitute an upper portion of the self-travel carriage. The transporting path is disposed substantially along the assembling line from its starting point to its terminal point, and an automated assembling zone and a manually assembling zone are coexistently disposed along the assembling line. An automatic machine is disposed in a working station of the automated assembling zone for advancing and retreating movement, and there is provided means for positioning and fixing the self-travel carriage together with the pallet in such working station. An overhead conveyor for transporting the self-travel carriage separated from the pallet in a hung manner is used as one of the transporting means.
63 Positive drive assembly for automatic, rail-based transportation system US741124 1985-06-04 US4671186A 1987-06-09 Jan K. Kunczynski
An automatic, rail-based passenger and cargo transportation system which is particularly well suited for use as a moderate speed people mover is disclosed. The system includes a rail structure on which passive carrier cars are movably supported from opposite sides of the rail. In one aspect a plurality of drive wheels are rotatably mounted to the rail assembly and span across the width of the rail structure so as to drive the carrier cars along the rail in opposite directions on opposite sides of the rail. In another aspect of the invention, the carrier cars are cantilever supported from the sides of the rail so as to cause gravity biasing of the cars inwardly such that a shoe is forced into driving engagement with alternating toothed and smooth drive wheels mounted in the rail framework and sufficiently spaced so that only one toothed drive wheel interengages with the shoe assembly at any time. The people mover system further includes power transmission means which couples a plurality of the drive wheels and drive motors together for operation as a unit to provide ease of control of the multi-carrier unit system and redundancy against motor failures. Alternative drive wheel configurations and locations are disclosed, as are alternate power transmission assemblies and methods for driving passive or unpowered carrier cars along the rail structure.

66 Rack and pinion drive trolley with slip-ring drive wheel US396931 1982-07-09 US4463683A 1984-08-07 Georg Uttscheid
A motor-driven overhead trolley conveyor is described which comprises a rail having horizontal sections and inclined sections. Rack sections or chain sections are associated to the inclined sections. Each trolley comprises its own drive motor. In the horizontal sections the driving force is transmitted exclusively through a drive roller. In inclined sections the drive is effected by means of a gear meshing with the rack or chain and being driven with the same angular velocity as the drive roller. The drive roller comprises a drive wheel connected with the drive shaft as well as a ring mounted on the periphery of the drive wheel in a slide bearing fashion. By this feature, a cold working of the drive roller surface and the rail surface due to alternate stresses caused by the gear is avoided.

76 RAIL CUM ROAD VEHICLES (RCRV) AND ECONOMY RAIL TRACK-CUM-CORRUGATED CONCRETE TRACK TO ENGAGE WITH CORRUGATED TREAD RUBBER WHEELS ON ALL ROADWAYS. US14423791 2013-08-12 US20150202935A1 2015-07-23 Venkatachalam Muthusamy
A rail cum road vehicle(RCRV) running on rail tracks or on plain roads, includes a gas powered hybrid engine coach linked to and pulling one or several passenger coaches or goods vehicles, all of which in common are fitted with pneumatic rubber wheels, steel wheels, air suspension system with hanger brackets, air brakes and couplers. The air suspension system will lift the axles of the rubber wheels for rail travel, and it will lift the steel wheels to nm on plain roads. Its regenerative braking system produces electricity to run the motor of an air compressor unit or the vehicle itself. The engine power is transmitted to the steel wheels and the rubber wheels via crown/differential boxes and sprockets and chains. All of the RCRV are fitted with ‘advanced light weight rail tracks brakes’ and ‘corrugated concrete track to engage with the corrugated tread rubber wheels’ for instant braking. The circular chassis bogie at rear end helps the RCRV on tracks and on road comfortably negotiate. The ballast-less economy rail track with lesser numbers of light weight sleepers is bolted to the ground for comfortable journey with less noise.

A track system includes a track 1 and one or more carriages 10 having bearing wheels engaged with the track such that the carriages can travel along the track. Each carriage has a single bearing 12 engaged with the inner side of the track and a pair of bearing wheels 13, 14 engaged with an opposite side of the track. The width of the track between the two sides varies such as to maintain a tolerance better than 0.05 mm between the bearing wheels and the respective sides of the track. The load capacity of the carriage can be increased and centred by making the single bearing 12 larger than the other two bearing wheels 13 and 14. The track 1 may be machined in one piece, optionally with an integral base plate. In another embodiment the track has spaced inner and outer sections with a rack engaged by a drive pinion mounted on the carriage between the two sections.
