20220009527 · 2022-01-13 ·

A high-speed mass transport system having a monorail track disposed along a travel path and a monorail car with a driving unit suspended from the monorail track and a commuter car selectively attached to the driving unit. The high-speed mass transport system having also having an omnidirectional wheel transporter being adapted to selectively raise and lower to engage the commuter car, thus allowing the commuter car to detach from and reattach to the driving unit.

MONORAIL TRANSPORTATION-BASED SPATIAL TRANSPORT SYSTEM
20210340713 · 2021-11-04 ·

A monorail transportation-based spatial transport system, comprising a load-bearing frame system or a load-bearing pier system. The load-bearing frame or pier system divides, by means of bent caps, the spatial transport system into at least two layers (K1, K2), the two layers (K1, K2) comprising an odd-numbered layer below the bent cap (B-1) and an even-numbered layer above said bent cap, the odd-numbered layer comprising or not comprising suspended monorail transportation, and the even-numbered layer comprising any of straddle-type transportation, magnetic levitation-type transportation, road transportation and railway transportation. The spatial transport system comprises two or more types of monorail transportation or a combination of one or more types of monorail transportation and other types of transportation, and solves the problems of intensive passenger flow, ground transportation congestion and low logistics efficiency.
