Patent

CA 2542883

The invention relates to a transport system, comprising a transport track (9), made of at least one rail, at least one vehicle to be transported and a rolling device, whereby said vehicle, provided with the rolling device, has a rolling resistance on said rail, said transport track comprises several descending sections (14', 14'', 14'''), having a descending gradient which is sufficient to increase the rolling resistance and insufficient to generate a continuous acceleration of the vehicle on the rail and ascending sections (12', 12'', 12''') and whereby the transport track has a course, along which no vehicle at a point is lifted higher than the altitude of said vehicle at this point on a transport track with a single descending section, having the aforementioned gradient.

Système de transport, comprenant une voie de transport (9) formée d'au moins un rail, au moins un véhicule à transporter, et un dispositif de roulement, le véhicule pourvu du dispositif de roulement présentant une résistance au roulement sur ledit rail, ladite voie de transport présentant plusieurs tronçons de voie descendants (14', 14", 14"') ayant une pente suffisante pour que ladite résistance au roulement soit surmontée, et insuffisante pour produire une accélération continue du véhicule sur le rail, et des tronçons de voie ascendants (12',12",12"'), la voie de transport présentant un tracé selon lequel aucun véhicule en un point n'est soulevé plus haut que l'altitude qu'aurait ce véhicule en ce point sur une voie de transport à tronçon descendant unique, pourvu de la pente susdite.
