[0030] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.

[0031] To make the above objects, features, and advantages of the present invention more obvious and understandable, the present invention will be further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific implementation manners.

[0032] Refer to Figures 1 - 7 , the present invention provides a V-shaped track high-temperature superconducting maglev structure, including:

[0033] A track foundation 2, including a track base 21 and a pair of V-shaped tracks 20 arranged on both sides of the track base 21. The V-shaped track 20 includes a foundation 211 and a pair of symmetrically inclined permanent magnet tracks 201 arranged on the foundation 211. There is a gap between the pair of permanent magnet tracks 201;

[0034] Multiple suspension frames 1 are arranged in parallel. The suspension frame 1 includes a framework 12 for connecting with the vehicle body 3 and two groups of suspension devices 10 arranged on the framework 12. The suspension device 10 includes a cryogenic dewar container 101 for connecting the framework 12 and an electromagnetic shunt damper 104 arranged at the bottom of the cryogenic dewar container 101. A high-temperature superconducting bulk material is arranged in the cryogenic dewar container 101. The cryogenic dewar container 101 is in sliding fit between a pair of permanent magnet tracks 201, and the electromagnetic shunt damper 104 passes through the gap between the pair of permanent magnet tracks 201 and is in sliding fit with the track base 21.

[0035] By arranging a pair of permanent magnet tracks 201 in an inclined manner to form a V-shaped track 20, compared with the laying method of a horizontal track, the suspension and guiding ability of the vehicle is significantly enhanced, providing a more reliable guarantee for the high-speed and stable operation of the vehicle. At the same time, an electromagnetic shunt damper 104 is arranged in the suspension device 10 below the framework 12. As the primary suspension of the vehicle, it not only improves the safety and smoothness of the vehicle operation but also further enhances the overall performance. Moreover, there is both an available magnetic field and space to load the electromagnetic shunt damper 104 below the V-shaped track 20, further improving the magnetic field utilization rate.

[0036] Furthermore, the configuration of the cryogenic dewar container 101 is adapted to the inclination angle of the pair of permanent magnet tracks 201, making the arrangement of the internal high-temperature superconducting bulk material parallel to the permanent magnet tracks 201 to ensure the suspension and guiding performance.

[0037] In an embodiment of the present invention, an inclined surface groove for cooperating with the pair of permanent magnet tracks 201 is formed on the foundation 211, and a track support 202 for supporting the permanent magnet tracks 201 is arranged in the inclined surface groove.

[0038] In an embodiment of the present invention, a buffer fastener 203 is arranged between the track support 202 and the inclined surface groove.

[0039] In an embodiment of the present invention, a guide groove 212 is arranged on the bottom surface of the inclined surface groove, and a plurality of telescopic support wheels 105 for slidingly cooperating with the guide groove 212 are arranged on the bottom surface of the electromagnetic shunt damper 104.

[0040] In an embodiment of the present invention, a rotating bearing 103 is arranged on the top surface of the cryogenic dewar container 101, a transverse sliding table 102 is rotatably fitted on the rotating bearing 103, and the transverse sliding table 102 is connected with the framework 12.

[0041] By arranging the rotating bearing 103 and the transverse sliding table 102, the vehicle body 3 can be more flexible when facing a curve, ensuring the stability and comfort during the driving process.

[0042] Furthermore, an integrated design is carried out for the thermal insulation Dewar container 101, the telescopic support wheel 105, the electromagnetic shunt damper 104, the rotating bearing 103 and the transverse slide 102, which not only simplifies the complexity of the vehicle suspension frame, but also realizes multiple functions of suspension guidance, curve passing, vibration damping and safety support.

[0043] In an embodiment of the present invention, the frame 12 is connected to the vehicle body 3 through an air spring 11.

[0044] In an embodiment of the present invention, a linear motor 13 is provided on the frame 12.

[0045] Due to the unique flux pinning effect of the high-temperature superconducting bulk material in the thermal insulation Dewar container 101 of the suspension 10 under the suspension frame 1, the vehicle body 3 can be stably suspended above the permanent magnet track 201 and driven by the linear motor 13 to achieve frictionless high-speed operation.

[0046] In an embodiment of the present invention, a pair of permanent magnet tracks 201 are arranged with opposite poles, which avoids the situation that the traditional Halbach structure concentrates the magnetic field on the track surface, so that the magnetic field is squeezed in the center and below the V-shaped track 20, providing a dense magnetic field and gradient for the superconducting suspension to improve the suspension performance.

[0047] In an embodiment of the present invention, as shown in Figure -, the electromagnetic shunt damper 104 is a multi-branch parallel structure. Therefore, when there are 2 parallel branches, the circuit equation is updated as:

[0048]

[0049] The resonant frequency of the multi-branch parallel EMSD can be obtained through numerical simulation. By matching the resonant frequencies of each branch with the frequencies of multi-source excitations or the multi-order natural frequencies of the system, multi-frequency resonance is achieved, thereby converting multi-modal mechanical vibrations into multi-branch electromagnetic oscillations. The inductance and resistance in the main circuit are the properties of the damping coil (actuator), and the interaction between the main circuit current and the track magnetic field provides a damping force for the suspension system. When the frequency of the induced electromotive force in the main circuit matches the resonant frequency of branch 1, the current mainly passes through branch 1; when it matches the resonant frequency of branch 2, the current mainly passes through branch 2. When the induced electromotive force contains multiple frequency components (i.e., when the suspension system undergoes multi-modal vibrations), multiple branches participate in resonance together, and the purpose of adaptive multi-modal vibration reduction is achieved by consuming energy in the resistor. Specifically, if the resonant frequency of a certain branch is equal to the mechanical vibration frequency, the total impedance of this branch is smaller, and the current will pass through it in a band-pass filtering manner and be consumed in the resistor or stored in the energy storage element; when the vibration frequency is higher, the high-frequency branch plays a major role in suppressing vibrations; when the vibration frequency is lower, the low-frequency branch plays a major role in suppressing vibrations, and so on. Generally, vibrations are the superposition of multiple frequencies (modes), so multiple branches jointly bear the role of suppressing vibrations, that is, "multi-modal vibration reduction". The induced current can achieve adaptive shunting according to the excitation frequency, thereby achieving adaptive vibration reduction.

[0050] Precise design of electromagnetic parameters is achieved through a multi-branch parallel circuit, which can effectively match the dynamic responses of different frequencies and achieve multi-modal adaptive vibration reduction in a passive manner. In this way, without relying on an active control system, optimized damping effects can be provided for various vibration modes in the vehicle-track system, significantly improving the vibration reduction performance of the system. For different vibration frequencies, adjustments can be made by replacing components such as capacitors and inductors in the branch. The structure is simple and the cost is low.

[0051] By adding a circuit system composed of capacitors, inductors, and resistors outside the damping coil, the damper only shows resistive properties during the vibration reduction process and is phase-synchronized with the mechanical vibration. In this way, the vibration energy can be effectively consumed in the resistor or stored after rectification, rather than simply transferred, thereby improving the vibration reduction efficiency and enhancing the stability of the system.

[0052] The present invention realizes multi-modal vibration reduction in the way of multi-frequency resonance. For the vibration modes of the vehicle-track system, precise design of electromagnetic parameters is completed through multiple parallel circuits, achieving adaptive matching of dynamic responses at different frequencies, and inducing current in a passive manner without relying on an active control system.

[0053] A method for optimizing the V-shaped track cross-section includes:

[0054] Obtain the initial cross-section parameters of the V-shaped track 20;

[0055] Calculate the levitation force based on electromagnetic theory;

[0056] Judge whether the suspension efficiency meets the standard based on the suspension force. If the suspension efficiency does not meet the standard, the initial cross-section parameters are adjusted by the processing module and the suspension force is recalculated.

[0057] The processing module includes intelligent algorithms such as genetic algorithms and particle swarm algorithms.

[0058] Based on the above method, by changing the track base 21, the width of the V-shaped track 20 and the inclination angle of the permanent magnet track 201 are adjusted, which provides strong technical support for the safe and efficient operation of the high-temperature superconducting maglev vehicle while reducing costs.

[0059] In the description of the present invention, it should be understood that the orientation or positional relationship indicated by the terms "longitudinal", "transverse", "upper", "lower", "front", "rear", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "top", "bottom", "inner", "outer", etc. is based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the drawings, and is only for the convenience of describing the present invention, rather than indicating or implying that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be construed as a limitation of the present invention.

[0060] The above-described embodiments are only descriptions of the preferred embodiments of the present invention, and do not limit the scope of the present invention. Without departing from the design spirit of the present invention, various deformations and improvements made by those of ordinary skill in the art to the technical solutions of the present invention shall fall within the protection scope determined by the claims of the present invention.
