Abstract

See full text

At one end in a running direction of a bogie, two guiding wheels are arranged, and at another end in the running direction of the bogie, two stabilizing wheels are arranged. The stabilizing wheels are positioned at a level lower than that of the guiding wheels. The stabilizing wheels function to guide the bogie along the monorail and prevent the bogie from falling off the track. With this arrangement, the total number of guiding wheels and stabilizing wheels can be reduced, and particularly, the number of the guiding wheels can be reduced. Accordingly, the bogie can be manufactured with a low cost. A traction link for connecting the bogie and the car body is arranged on one end of the bogie, and, accordingly the length of the bogie can be shortened.
