Abstract (en)
[origin: WO9936627A1] The invention relates to a line-changing device for the tracks (1) of a magnetic levitation train. The tracks (1) are formed by track supports (4) arranged one after the other and can be connected with each other. To connect the tracks a track support (4) configured as a bendable support (5) is positioned along each track which can be bent to establish a connection between the tracks (1). In its bent state each bendable support (5) can be positioned in relation to the other bendable support (5). Along each track a connecting support (6) is arranged next to the bendable support (5), which connecting support can be moved out of the clearance gauge of the train so as to create a distance required for the train to pass across the rail joint embodied by the bendable supports (5). The invention consists of the fact that the connecting supports (6) can be bent so as to form a second rail joint and that the bendable supports (5) can be moved out of the clearance gauge of the train when the rail joint is established by means of the connecting supports (6).
