The present invention relates to the field of coal mine underground auxiliary transportation equipment, and particularly relates to an overhead monorail driving unit group realizing mechanical fast power distribution. The overhead monorail driving unit group realizing mechanical fast power distribution includes a rail, wherein the rail is connected with driving portions, carrying trolleys and a hoisting beam, the hoisting beam is disposed in a middle position of the driving portions and the carrying trolleys, and the driving portions, the carrying trolleys and the hoisting beam are connected through driving portion short pull rods, frame-shaped pull rods and driving portion long pull rods. Overhead monorail driving portions have four paths for transmitting a driving force to the hoisting beam, the frame-shaped pull rods directly transmit the driving force of the driving portions in positions far away from the hoisting beam to the hoisting beam, the objective is to reduce an accumulated peak value of the driving force of the driving portion in a mode of serial-parallel arrangement of the overhead monorail driving portions, the problem of horizontal direction bending failure of the rail caused by the driving portions in an operation process of an overhead monorail is solved, and the reliability and adaptability of overhead monorail transportation equipment are improved.

A track-wheel based device is disclosed. The track-wheel based device may include a longitudinal member substantially perpendicular to an axis of motion of the track-wheel based device. The track-wheel based device may further include a first lateral member and a second lateral member, each being substantially parallel to the axis of motion of the track-wheel based device. The longitudinal member may be coupled to the first lateral member at a first location of the first lateral member and to the second lateral member at a first location of the second lateral member. The first lateral member and the second lateral member may be configured to undergo a relative angular rotation, in response to a planar misalignment of four or more points of contact between two or more guide tracks for the track-wheel based device and the track-wheel based device.

A transport system includes a main cable, a track assembly, and a conveyance assembly, wherein the track assembly is suspended from the main cable to allow unimpeded translational movement of the conveyance assembly along the track assembly. In another aspect according to the present invention, the track assembly has a track changing assembly that includes a track changing section rotatably coupled to a primary track section for selective alignment of the track changing section to any one of a plurality of exit track sections. A method of conveyance along a suspended track includes suspending a main cable between natural or artificial support structures, suspending a track assembly from the main cable, and mounting a conveyance assembly on the suspended track assembly to provide unimpeded translational movement of the conveyance assembly along the track assembly.

An overhead rail system includes a hollow tube having a channel running longitudinally along a bottom surface of the overhead rail. A stopper for use in the overhead rail, includes a base having a thickness less than a width of the channel of the overhead rail, a base length, a base width, and first and second countersunk threaded holes. The base further includes a pair of wings having a length greater than a width. The wings are rotatably attached to ends of the base and are rotatable approximately 90 degrees between a first position and a second position. Bolts may attach a stopper portion including a stopper base, and bumper base, and a bumper. The bolts further prevent rotation of the wings, thus securing the stopper in the overhead rail.
