A diagnosis system diagnoses the integrity of an opening/closing device capable of opening and closing by driving a motor. A driving current acquisition unit acquires a driving current of the motor. A diagnosis unit defines a current waveform from a temporal change of the driving current acquired by the driving current acquisition unit and diagnoses the integrity of the opening/closing device based on the current waveform.

Diagnosis system and diagnosis method for opening/closing device

A grinding device of a travel path, on which traveling wheels of a rail-type vehicle roll, includes a grinder which grinds a surface layer of a travel path, a frame on which the grinder is provided, and a device traveling wheel mounted on the frame. The device traveling wheel rolls along the travel path on the top surface of the standard rail extending in the extending direction of the travel path.

Travel path grinding and travel path grinding method

A power rail-support unit includes: a base portion that is integrally fixed on a track; a guide rail on which a guide wheel of a side portion of a vehicle travelling on the track abuts; a first fixing portion that is configured to fix the guide rail on the base portion; a second fixing portion that is connected to the guide rail so as to be independent of the first fixing portion; a bracket that is supported on the guide rail; and a power rail that is supported by the bracket so as to be arranged at a predetermined relative position relative to the guide rail, and that slides on and makes contact with a collector of the vehicle.

Power rail-support unit and guide-track transportation system

An intersecting track includes: two main tracks; a pair of first guide portions disposed in the main tracks and guide a pair of first guide wheels of the vehicle; a pair of crossover tracks disposed over the main tracks to intersect each other; a second guide portion disposed inside each of the pair of crossover tracks and guides a second guide wheel; a switching portion that switches a direction of the vehicle to a direction along the main tracks and a direction along the crossover track; and a switching device disposed in an intersecting area of the second guide portions in the pair of crossover tracks, selectively switches a direction to a direction along one of the second guide portions and a direction along the other of the second guide portions, and guides the second guide wheel in any one of the directions.

Intersecting track and switching device

A traffic system includes: a vehicle having a power-receiving section on an outer surface thereof; and a ground facility having a power-supply section for supplying the power-receiving section with power by coming in contact with the power-receiving section. The power-supply section has a spring for applying a biasing force to a power-supply shoe in the power-supply section toward the power-receiving section. The power-receiving section has a flat surface that extends along the outer surface of the vehicle, and tapered surfaces that are connected to the flat surface in the forward and backward moving directions of the vehicle and guide the power-supply shoe to the flat surface against the biasing force to bring the power-supply shoe into contact with the flat surface when the vehicle moves backward and forward.
