Transport apparatus having at least one levitation generator and at least one drive generator. The at least one levitation generator configured to generate a levitating magnetic flux, move within a corresponding at least one lifting member, and elevate above a rest position relative to the at least one lifting member in response to the levitating magnetic flux. The at least one drive generator configured to generate a driving magnetic flux, move within a corresponding at least one drive member, and laterally move relative to the at least one drive member in response to the driving magnetic flux. At least a portion of the at least one levitation generator is movable relative to the at least one drive generator.

The subject of the invention is stabilisation and levitation mechanism for a dedicated vehicle, taking into account interoperability with existing transport systems in the vicinity of switches and routes of conventional vehicles, containing the ground, on which the rails are fixed, wherein on both sides of the rail system, preferably on the track bed, at least along a fragment of the track used by conventional vehicles there are guiding walls, mounted on movable supporting elements.

Method of forming track section includes coupling functional components to a framework. At least some of the functional components are arranged in a precise and accurate arrangement in a common plane. Building a rigid, removable, and reusable mold around the framework and functional components. Steel reinforcement (“rebar”), which is bent into a shape corresponding to a track section profile, is provided within the mold. Dispensing a binder material into the mold and curing the binder material; and removing the mold from the cured binder material to reveal a completed track section at required accuracy set by the framework. At least some other functional components are arranged parallel to each other in a first lateral plane normal to the common plane and at least still other functional components are arranged parallel to each other in a second lateral plane normal to the common plane and parallel to the first lateral plane.

Non-contact bearing system, such as a magnetic levitation system, having a geometry. The geometry includes a plurality of track elements arranged to nest together in a length direction. The plurality of track elements are shaped to define at least an upper and a lower null flux crossing and the plurality of nested track elements form a conductive metamaterial. Method for constructing a metamaterial null flux magnetic levitation track with tessellating elements of stamped conductors.

This invention is a harness for automobiles in order to ride a modified magnetic levitation railing system. The magnets and superconductors are used to lift and propel forward the harness. The lift points are in order to keep the automobile level and keeping the automobile from moving around. The bolt holder is to keep the automobile, wheels, suspension, and shocks in place. The Bolt Holder R4 is a specially designed part to attach to the automobiles wheels, it has a bearing and thread in order for the part to spin freely and be secured onto the automobiles wheels. The frame is designed to accommodate most automobiles. The rail drop is there to have a path for the automobile to enter/exit the harness. The bearings are there to allow the magnets, superconductors, and the automobiles wheels to spin freely as it travels to its destination and at the destination.

Vacuum tube railway system comprising a vacuum tube mounted on a ground support, a magnetic levitation railway track mounted inside a wall forming the vacuum tube for guiding a magnetic levitation railway vehicle, the vacuum tube assembled in sections along the ground support, at least some of a plurality of sections of vacuum tube being coupled together by a dilatation joint configured for hermetically sealing a dilatation gap between said sections of tube. The dilatation joint comprises at least first and second support plates mounted on an outer surface of the tube wall, a first support plate fixed to a first section of vacuum tube and a second support plate being fixed to a second section of vacuum tube, the support plates extending longitudinally over the dilatation gap over a length (L1) greater than a maximum dilatation gap (G).

A segmented track for a Maglev vehicle includes a structural support portion and a Maglev portion fastened to the structural support portion. Each segment of the structural support portion is formed by fusing together three cast metal components. Neighboring ones of the structural support segments are joined together end-to-end by fused metal, and neighboring ones of the reaction rail segments are joined together end-to-end by fused metal. The positioning and joining of the successive segments is done in the field using on site jigs and machines.
