Abstract (en)

[origin: US2009013898A1] Disclosed is a switch arrangement for magnetically levitated railways, comprising a support (1), which is bendable transversally to the direction of travel and is provided with track or component fittings, a rail arranged transversally to the direction of travel, a rack (23) arranged transversally to the direction of travel and a supporting frame (15) for receiving said support (1). The supporting frame is supported on the rail by a running wheel (16) and comprises a drive mechanism (18) with a toothed wheel (20) that engages in the rack (23) as well as a motor for the propulsion thereof. According to the invention, the support (1), the supporting frame (15) and the drive mechanism (18) form, as an entity, a firmly connected assembly which is arranged in such a manner that it can be displaced in the direction of travel and relative to the rail (17) and the rack (23).
