For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0016] In addition, the technical features involved in the different embodiments of the present invention described below can be combined with each other as long as they do not conflict with each other.

[0017] See also Figure 1 The present application provides a traffic device for changing tracks using a steering wheel, including: a steering wheel 1, a steering shaft 2, a differential 3, a bearing 4, a steel ball 5, a sleeve 6, a shock-absorbing suspension 7, a wheel 8, an axle 9, a motor 10, a transmission shaft 11, a universal joint 12, and a braking system and a power generation system. The steering wheel 1 is connected to one end of the steering shaft 2, and the other end of the steering shaft 2 is provided with a bearing 4, and the lower end of the bearing 4 is provided with a sleeve 6, and the lower end of the sleeve 6 is provided with a differential 3. The wheel axle 9 adopts a split half-axle structure, and the left and right half-axles are connected through the differential 3; the other end of the steering shaft 2 is connected to the transmission shaft 11, and the other end of the transmission shaft 11 is hinged to the output shaft of the motor 10; universal joints 12 are also provided at both ends of the steering shaft 2; the output shaft at the other end of the motor 10 is connected to the rear-drive differential 3, and the rear-drive differential 3 is respectively connected to the left and right half-axles; the other end of all the half-axles connected to the differential 3 is provided with a shock-absorbing suspension 7, and the suspension is provided with steel balls 5, which are respectively in contact with the bottom plate of the cab, support the cab through rolling friction, and enhance the stability and flexibility of the system.

[0018] Specifically, the wheel 8 is a train wheel that runs on a laid rail, and the wheel rim is wider and higher than the wheel rim of an existing train wheel.

[0019] Specifically, the front, rear, left and right braking systems of the present application are separate.

[0020] Specifically, the motor 10 is a magnetic group speed regulating motor, and a switched reluctance motor. Based on the special structure of the switched reluctance speed regulating motor, it can be energized phase by phase, and replaced with the power supply in the order of each phase. And it generates energy feedback to the power generation occasion. It cooperates with the supercritical dioxide gas loop to carry and recover energy, continuously cycle compression and electromagnetic induction heating, without the need to supplement carbon dioxide, and uses oil-free lubricated shafts and fan strong wind cooling to cool down.

[0021] The power generation system is independently installed in the cab and is assembled from four high-power switched reluctance motors and a large-capacity exciter. The switched reluctance motor does not cut the magnetic lines of force, but relies on electromagnetic attraction to rotate the rotor. The electromagnetic field strength can be enhanced according to actual needs, which comes from the capacity of the exciter. The capacity of a single switched reluctance motor is as high as 20 megawatts. A valve core is set in the carbon dioxide gas circuit of the power generation device. The carbon dioxide gas slightly above the critical point is filled in through the valve core to reduce the formation of carbonic acid.

[0022] When in use, the wheel axle of the vehicle is divided into two half-axles, which are connected in the middle by a differential. The principle of the automobile differential is followed to enable the wheels on both sides to rotate at differential speeds. The steering shaft is arranged vertically upward, and the high-power switched reluctance speed regulating motor is installed on the differential. The transmission shafts at the front and rear ends of the motor are horizontal and are respectively articulated with universal joints.

[0023] The universal joints at the front and rear ends are respectively connected to the front and rear two-wheel drive differentials. This can form a complete power transmission system. There is a power start key on the steering wheel. By rotating the power start key, the power generation system is electrically connected to the vehicle's motor. The steering wheel is rotated to make the inner rail wheel close to the inner rail steel groove. According to the working principle of the differential, the inner rail wheel slows down. At this time, the speed of the inner rail wheel is less than that of the outer rail wheel, realizing track change. When the wheel rim is driving in the steel groove, there are three directions: straight, left, and right. According to the driving situation, the direction is changed by turning the steering wheel. The intersection of the straight steel groove and the fork is the gap of the steel groove. There are gaps in different directions at the forks in different directions. When the vehicle is driving backward, there is no need to turn around. It can drive backward by operating the other steering wheel.

[0024] The intersection of the straight steel trough and the fork is the gap of the steel trough, and the forks in different directions have gaps in different directions. When the wheel leaves the fork, it leaves the steel trough, and the tread of the wheel contacts the rail. The wheel runs at high speed on the rail. Because the speed regulation range of the switched reluctance speed control motor is wide and the response speed is fast, it can start and stop frequently and suddenly. The acceleration is also fast, which can achieve ultra-high-speed driving.

[0025] The front, rear, left and right brake systems are independent. One foot presses the brake and the other foot presses the sliding resistor to control the current and adjust the speed.

[0026] The technical features of the above-described embodiments may be arbitrarily combined. To make the description concise, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above-described embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, they should be considered to be within the scope of this specification.

[0027] The above-mentioned embodiments only express several implementation methods of the present invention, and the descriptions thereof are relatively specific and detailed, but they cannot be understood as limiting the scope of the invention patent. It should be pointed out that, for ordinary technicians in this field, several variations and improvements can be made without departing from the concept of the present invention, and these all belong to the protection scope of the present invention. Therefore, the protection scope of the patent of the present invention shall be subject to the attached claims.
