Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0023] Please see Figures 1 to 7 In this embodiment of the present invention, a turnout device 100 for double-decker rail vehicles includes: a track frame 10 and a track 20. The track 20 is used for the rail vehicle to travel. The track frame 10 supports the track 20, causing the track 20 to be suspended in the air. The track 20 has an upper rail and a lower rail. The upper rail is used to carry the rail vehicle. The lower rail is used to suspend the rail vehicle. Specifically, the structure of the turnout device 100 enables the upper rail and the lower rail to move synchronously.

[0024] It also includes several drive devices 30. The drive devices 30 are disposed within the track 20. The track 20 forms a main track 21, a first connecting track 22, a second connecting track 23, a straight track 24, and a branch track 25. The main track 21, the first connecting track 22, and the straight track 24 together form a straight passage. The main track 21, the second connecting track 23, and the branch track 25 together form a turning passage. The track frame 10 includes a first horizontal beam 11 and a second horizontal beam 12. The first horizontal beam 11 is parallel to the second horizontal beam 12. Drive devices 30 are provided on the first connecting track 22 at positions corresponding to the first horizontal beam 11 and the second horizontal beam 12. Drive devices 30 are also provided on the second connecting track 23 at positions corresponding to the first horizontal beam 11 and the second horizontal beam 12. The several drive devices 30 synchronously drive the first connecting track 22 and the second connecting track 23 to move along the first horizontal beam 11 and the second horizontal beam 12.

[0025] Track 20 has both a straight-line and a turning state. Several drive devices 30 synchronously drive the first connecting track 22 and the second connecting track 23, so that the two ends of the first connecting track 22 connect to the main track 21 and the straight-line track 24 respectively to form a straight-line passage, while the second connecting track 23 moves away from the main track 21 and the branch track 25, and track 20 is in a straight-line state. Similarly, several drive devices 30 synchronously drive the first connecting track 22 and the second connecting track 23, so that the two ends of the second connecting track 23 connect to the main track 21 and the branch track 25 respectively to form a turning passage, while the first connecting track 22 moves away from the main track 21 and the straight-line track 24, and track 20 is in a turning state.

[0026] Specifically, several drive devices 30 can synchronously drive the first connecting track 22 and the second connecting track 23 to move along the first horizontal beam 11 and the second horizontal beam 12, thereby enabling the track 20 to switch between a straight state and a turning state.

[0027] In one specific embodiment, the drive device 30 includes: a drive motor 31, a motor mount 32, a rotating shaft 33, a gear assembly, and a load-bearing wheel assembly. The motor mount 32 is mounted to the lower rail. The drive motor 31 is mounted to the motor mount 32. One end of the rotating shaft 33 is rotatably mounted to the drive motor 31, and the other end of the rotating shaft 33 passes through the gear assembly. Both the gear assembly and the load-bearing wheel assembly are mounted to the upper rail. Support structures are formed on the tops of both the first horizontal beam 11 and the second horizontal beam 12. The support structures support the gear assembly and the load-bearing wheel assembly.

The gear assembly includes a gear 34, a rack 35, and two mounting shafts 36. The gear 34 is rotatably mounted to the rotating shaft 33. The gear 34 meshes with the rack 35. The rack 35 is installed in the first groove 13. One end of each of the two mounting shafts 36 is mounted to the upper rail, and the other end of each of the two mounting shafts 36 is mounted to the rotating shaft 33. The gear 34 is positioned between the two rotating shafts 33. Specifically, a portion of the gear 34 is located in the first groove 13, and a portion of the load-bearing wheel 37 is located in the second groove 14. The first groove 13 and the second groove 14 can respectively limit the movement of the gear 34 and the load-bearing wheel 37.

[0029] In one specific implementation, the load-bearing wheel assembly includes: a load-bearing wheel 37, an I-beam rail 38, and a mounting bracket 39. The load-bearing wheel 37 is rotatably mounted to the mounting bracket 39. The mounting bracket 39 is mounted to the upper rail. The load-bearing wheel 37 abuts against the I-beam rail 38. The I-beam rail 38 is installed within the second groove 14.

[0030] Specifically, the structural design of the load-bearing wheel assembly can support the upper rail and improve the overall stability of the track.

[0031] In one specific implementation, the first horizontal beam 11 passes through the first connecting rail 22 and the second connecting rail 23, and the support structure of the first horizontal beam 11 is disposed inside the first connecting rail 22 and the second connecting rail 23. The second horizontal beam 12 passes through the first connecting rail 22 and the second connecting rail 23, and the support structure of the second horizontal beam 12 is disposed inside the first connecting rail 22 and the second connecting rail 23.

[0032] In one specific implementation, the support structure includes: a first support frame 15, a second support frame 16, a third support frame 17, and two T-shaped support frames 18. The first support frame 15 is disposed between the two T-shaped support frames 18. One of the two T-shaped support frames 18 is disposed between the first support frame 15 and the second support frame 16, and the other of the two T-shaped support frames 18 is disposed between the first support frame 15 and the third support frame 17.

[0033] In one specific implementation, a first support frame 15, one of the two T-shaped support frames 18, and a second support frame 16 together form a first groove 13. A second groove 14 is formed together by the first support frame 15, the other of the two T-shaped support frames 18, and a third support frame 17. Specifically, the first groove 13 is formed together on the left side of the first support frame 15, the top of one of the two T-shaped support frames 18, and the right side of the second support frame 16. The second groove 14 is formed together on the right side of the first support frame 15, the top of the other of the two T-shaped support frames 18, and the left side of the third support frame.

[0034] In one specific implementation, rack 35 is mounted on top of one of the two T-shaped support frames 18. I-beam track 38 is mounted on top of the other of the two T-shaped support frames 18.

[0035] In one specific implementation, the width of the first support frame 15 is greater than the width of the second support frame 16 and the third support frame 17.

[0036] In one specific implementation, the second support frame 16 and the third support frame 17 have the same structure.

[0037] In one specific implementation, the length of the first horizontal beam 11 is greater than the length of the second horizontal beam 12.

[0038] The working principle of track changing: When changing from a straight-ahead state to a turning state, several drive devices 30 synchronously drive the first connecting track 22 and the second connecting track 23 to move along the first horizontal beam 11 and the second horizontal beam 12, so that the two ends of the second connecting track 23 connect to the main track 21 and the branch track 25 respectively, forming a turning channel. The first connecting track 22 gradually moves away from the main track 21 and the straight-ahead track 24. At this time, the track 20 is in a turning state, and the rail vehicle travels along the turning channel. When changing from a turning state to a straight-ahead state, several drive devices 30 synchronously drive the first connecting track 22 and the second connecting track 23 to move along the first horizontal beam 11 and the second horizontal beam 12, so that the two ends of the first connecting track 22 connect to the main track 21 and the straight-ahead track 24 respectively, forming a straight-ahead channel. The second connecting track 23 gradually moves away from the main track 21 and the branch track 25. At this time, the track 20 is in a straight-ahead state, and the rail vehicle travels along the straight-ahead channel.
