Patent

CA 2464395

An automated transportation (10) system includes a plurality of vehicles (22) adapted to travel along a pathway, and a monitoring system (70) located within each vehicle and adapted to monitor a location and a speed between an associated vehicle and the pathway. The automated transportation system (10) also includes a transmitter (72) located within each vehicle (22) and adapted to transmit a signal that includes data on the location and the speed monitored, and a receiver (76) located within each vehicle and adapted to receive the signal from each of the other vehicles. The automated transportation system (10) further includes a controller (78) located within each vehicle and adapted to interpret the signal received by the receiver and control the associated vehicle to provide proper spacing between the remaining vehicles to avoid collisions therebetween and maximize throughput of the vehicles along the pathway.

L'invention concerne un système de transport automatisé comprenant une pluralité de véhicules conçus pour se déplacer le long d'une voie et un système de surveillance placé à l'intérieur de chaque véhicule et conçu pour surveiller un emplacement et une vitesse entre un véhicule associé et la voie. Le système de transport automatisé comprend également un émetteur placé dans chaque véhicule et conçu pour émettre un signal comprenant des données relatives à l'emplacement et à la vitesse surveillés et un récepteur placé dans chaque véhicule et conçu pour recevoir le signal provenant des autres véhicules. Le système de transport automatisé comprend également une unité de commande située dans chaque véhicule et conçue pour interpréter le signal reçu par le récepteur et pour surveiller le véhicule associé, de manière à établir une distance appropriée entre les autres véhicules, afin d'éviter des collisions entre ceux-ci et de maximiser le flux des véhicules sur la voie.
