At the Institute for Posts and Telecommunications Policy, a postal transportation system has been studied. This system would make use of linear induction motor (LIM)-driven vehicles for transporting mail between post offices in the Tokyo Metropolitan area. The system would connect the main post offices in the Tokyo area with tunnels circularly constructed underground and would transport mail with linear induction motor-driven vehicles. In this study, it is found that if vehicle weight is reduced, climbing capability could be considerably improved. Accordingly, the potential for reducing the weight of vehicle-mounted LIMs has been explored, and a prototype lightweight LIM has been manufactured. This paper reports on the lightweight LIM and its characteristics. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
