Apparatus for damping oscillations in the propulsion direction in a magnetically suspended propulsion vehicle driven by a synchronous linear motor

摘要

A track bound propulsion vehicle such as a magnetically suspended vehicle and driven by a synchronous linear motor having a stator supplied from a fixed ac network with the stator installed along the track as a travelling field winding has a correcting element furnishing an ac output voltage at the network frequency and also connected to the travelling field winding to superimpose a voltage thereon with the phase of the ac output voltage of the correcting element adjustable by means of a control signal receiving an input from means measuring a quantity proportional to oscillations in the propulsion direction for damping such oscillations.
