  • Transport system comprising a vehicle with good cornering performance which can be moved on rails
    Patent number: 6668737
    Abstract: The invention relates to a transport system comprising rails arranged next to each other and a vehicle which is characterized by good cornering performance, can be moved on said rails and has running gears which can be pivoted about vertical axes and are mounted on a frame. Seen in the longitudinal direction of travel, the running gears on one vehicle side are mounted on the frame such that they can be moved in relation to the running gears of the opposite vehicle side. In particular, the running gears (8) of one side of the vehicle (1) are mounted on the frame (10) such that they can be linearly displaced at right angles to the longitudinal direction of travel (Q) of the vehicle (1).
