Abrégé

The invention relates to a system for managing and controlling the movement of a slot-guided vehicle, provided with a means (5) for supplying electric power and a manual trigger control (1) which generates and sends the management and control signal to the vehicle (2). The vehicle includes: a first electric traction motor (6); a second electric tilting motor (7); and a central guide with brushes for contacting the electrified groove of the track (4). The control (1) includes: a manual traction trigger (16), which generates a speed signal (Sy) for the first motor (6); a manual tilt trigger (16), which generates a tilt signal (Si) for the second motor (7); and a controller (9) that reads both signals and combines them into a single control signal (Sc) which is sent to the slot-guided vehicle via the track (4). The vehicle includes a speed controller (36) for managing the first electric motor and a tilt controller (37) for managing the second electric motor.

Abrégé

The invention relates to a chassis for slot-guided vehicles, capable of understeering. The invention includes a guide (3) that extend downward from the vehicle into a carriage (2) supporting contact strips, said guide moving in a groove (4) defined by two parallel metal contact parts (5, 6). The carriage (2) is disposed at the free end of an arm (7) hinged to a lower fixed point (8) of the chassis (1), such that it can rotate about a vertical axis (9) perpendicular to the track (10). The chassis includes: a servomotor (15) with a vertical rotation shaft (16) perpendicular to the main plane of the chassis (1) and solidly connected thereto for rotating the front wheels, and a transmission system for transmitting said rotation to the front wheels (11, 12). The servomotor (15) is powered by means of parallel metal contact parts (5, 6) that define the groove (4) in the track (10).

Abrégé

The invention relates to a slot motorcycle. The invention includes a guide traveller provided with stabilising side extensions (9, 10), the ends of which are fitted with supporting means. The invention also includes a servomotor (12) solidly connected to the chassis and the wheels, having a horizontal axis of rotation (13) extending essentially longitudinally in relation to the direction of the movement of the motorcycle (1). The front end of the output shaft (14) of the servomotor includes a first slide (15) which moves along a vertical guide (16) solidly connected to the guide traveller (6). As such, when the motorcycle (1) is in the vertical position the rotation of the servomotor (12) causes the first slide to move downwards and the upper part of the chassis-wheel assembly to incline and, consequently, the motorcycle can be inclined towards the inside of a defined bend.
