A track includes a travel path including a travel face with which travel wheels of a vehicle come into contact while rolling. The travel path includes a plurality of travel path forming units that are arranged to be adjacent to each other in a travel direction of the vehicle and of which each includes a unit travel face forming part of the travel face and a positioning unit that fixes a relative position between travel path forming units adjacent to each other.

Track, travel path forming unit, track laying method, and track maintenance method

In an insulating section, a power feeding rail, and a track transportation system, the insulating section extending along a travel direction of a vehicle and connecting electric train lines coming into contact with a pantograph of the vehicle at a contact surface facing the vehicle is characterized by including: a main surface portion formed on a surface which follows a current-conducting surface coming into contact with the pantograph in the electric train line, and having a portion in which a width in an up-down direction orthogonal to the travel direction is larger than the width of the pantograph; and inclined surface portions provided on both sides in the up-down direction on at least the near side in the travel direction of the main surface portion, inclined so as to gradually approach the vehicle as it goes toward the far side from the near side in the travel direction, and connected to the main surface portion.

Insulating section, power feeding rail, and track transportation system

A vehicle pick-up and delivery device includes: two mainline tracks including a pair of first guide portions which guide a pair of first guide wheels provided on a vehicle on an outer side of each of the first guide wheels; a pick-up and delivery travel path on which the vehicle is capable of traveling and which is provided between the two mainline tracks and is configured to pick up and deliver the vehicle between the two mainline tracks; a second guide portion which is provided inside the pick-up and delivery travel path and guides a second guide wheel disposed below the vehicle; and a switching unit which is provided on the mainline tracks and is capable of switching a direction of the vehicle between a direction along the mainline tracks and a direction along the pick-up and delivery travel path.
