Patent Description:
A subway-type transport system is known, which represents a tunnel with a rail cord of track structure and suitable vehicles located therein [<NUM>].

The disadvantages of such transport system are the significant restrictions on the speed of vehicles in the traditional subway and the significant cost of building this transport system.

Supersonic above-ground transport system by Yansufin is also known, comprising a vehicle with cars equipped at the bottom with a linear motor rotor, super electromagnets and super-permanent magnets. On the supports there is an all-metal airproof main pipe made up of separate pipes connected to each other hermetically by means of annular bellows. Gates are made at terminal and intermediate stops of vehicle. The cars are equipped with doors opening outwards. Along the entire length of the track, vacuum pumps adjusted for automatic operation are installed on the main pipe, and wind turbines are installed on top of the main pipe, mainly at the joints of separate pipes.

The disadvantage of such a transport system is the low efficiency and high cost of infrastructure to ensure vehicle levitation on extended sections of the track structure.

A superfast transport system is also known, wherein the rail track is located on a closed reinforced concrete overpass in above ground or underground position. The cars represent the fuselage of the aircraft, and for the lateral stability of the cars on the curved sections of the rail track above the cars in the overpass, a special rail is provided, grabbed by rollers mounted on the roof of the cars. The rail track at the beginning of the movement is directed downhill, which, when moving back, is uphill and helps to carry out more effective braking at the end of the track; for the same purpose, the air is sucked from the overpass on the side of the destination station and pumped on the side of the departure station [<NUM>].

However, the transport system of the above construction does not make full use of the possibilities to reduce the drag of the air flow at higher speeds of the proposed vehicle, in addition, a significant drawback of the above transport system is the limitation in smoothness and softness of travel due to the lack of flatness and straightness of the track structure, which does not allow to develop high speeds.

The Hyperloop transport system is known, which includes an overhead pipeline located on supports, inside which single transport capsules move. Special guides located in the nose of the transport capsule and ventilator redirect the oncoming air flow under the bottom, which allows to create air cushion under the capsule in forevacuum conditions. The capsule is driven by a linear electric motor, wherein the stator is an aluminum rail, installed in the pipeline at a certain interval. Rotor is located in each capsule. Since the stator performs not only acceleration, but also deceleration, in the latter case the kinetic energy of the capsule is also converted to electric [<NUM>].

The disadvantages of such transport system are complexity of control, ensuring the stabilization of the transport capsule and preventing its rotation around its own axis, as well as low efficiency and high cost of infrastructure to ensure levitation of the transport capsule during its movement.

Among the widely used in the world pipeline transport systems with a closed-type overpass, a system is known wherein the design of the outer shell of the transport structure consists of rigid composite reinforced pipes made of several materials. Each multilayer pipe contains connected to each other internal protective layer made of wear-resistant material, intermediate layer and external protective layer made of composite material, as well as flanges for connecting to adjacent pipes or pipe fittings. Internal protective layer and intermediate layer are attached to each other. Intermediate layer is made of polymer concrete reinforced with longitudinal rods rigidly attached with flanges into reinforcing frames [<NUM>].

However, such transport system does not provide for the use thereof as a closed-type track structure for movement inside it of a self-powered vehicle, providing for the transportation of passengers and goods.

Also known is a transport system of railway communication, which includes an underground reinforced concrete tunnel of a rectangular shape of a shallow foundation (made in a temporarily open trench), rails welded at the ends, laid on the bottom of the tunnel with a shock absorbing tape that provides vibration and sound insulation protection and a shuttle train with electric drive and cars installed on the tunnel rails on noiseless wheels [<NUM>].

The disadvantages of such transport system are the significant restrictions on the speed of movement of vehicles and substantial cost of constructing this transport system.

It is known that in <NUM>, the dean of the Faculty of Science and Technology of Majo University from Nagoya Kenoya Ozawa (English: Kyunojo Ozawa or Hisanojo Ozawa) built a vacuum tunnel in which he placed a jet train that reached a speed of <NUM>/h. The length of the train was <NUM>, diameter <NUM>. The following year, Ozawa drove experimental animals on this train [<NUM>].

However, due to the high cost of the vacuum tunnel and track structure, this transport system did not receive further development.

A method of constructing a highway for high-speed electric freight and passenger transport is known, according to which extended reinforced concrete overpasses with rails laid on longitudinal and transverse girders are erected on piles. The main line is passed through tunnels and equipped with platforms for passengers and power transmission line pylons [<NUM>].

However, in the transport system according to the above method, there is no reduction in airflow drag at high speeds of the proposed vehicle, moreover, the significant disadvantages of such transport system are the smoothness and softness limitations due to the lack of flatness and straightness of the track structure, which prevents the development of high speeds of vehicles.

The above mentioned technical solutions for construction of transport complexes, are characterized, both from the economic and technical side, respectively, by the increased cost and insufficient straightforwardness of the track structures used therein, due to the presence in their structures of joints of both rail track and intersectional - between elements of the overpass of the closed type, which prevents the creation of a "velvet smooth" track for the vehicle, and this means that it is impossible to achieve high speed with the corresponding reliability of transportation on the track structures of transport complexes of this type.

High-speed transport complexes have been further evolving with the development and creation of transport systems based on the string track structure by Yunitski, which is based on the use, as the main structural elements of the rail and the track structure as a whole, of load-bearing string-rod components prestressed by tensioning in longitudinal direction.

The method of manufacturing and design of the superspeed transport complex by Yunitski, according to which a tunnel (made in the form of a pipe prestressed in longitudinal direction by tensile force) is mounted in spans between the supports located on the foundation, is the closest in technical essence and achieved positive effect to the proposed one. The tunnel is equipped with a pretensioned track structure and a self-powered vehicle mounted thereon with possibility of movement, containing a body with a power unit [<NUM>].

A transport complex with the said track structure ensures its high carrying capacity, however, significant material and labor intensity with low processability and penalized efficiency of the construction process of such transport complex, caused by the design of the track structure, as well as the difficulty of transportation to the installation site of large-sized extended span structures in the form of solid pipes of large diameter and their installation in the field with a complex landscape, and their limited possibilities for covering large spans between adjacent intermediate supports - are the restraining factors of the widespread use of such transport complexes.

The above features characterizing the proposed technical approach are distinguishing, since, on the whole, they are sufficient to tackle the given technical task and achieve the expected technical result, and each of them independently - it is necessary to identify and distinguish similar technical solutions known in the art from the claimed method of manufacturing and arrangement of superspeed transport complex by Yunitski.

This set of general and distinctive features that characterize the claimed method of manufacturing and arrangement of superspeed transport complex by Yunitski is not known in the art and new and sufficient in all cases covered by the extent of legal protection.

Hereinafter, the essence of the group of inventions related to a single inventive concept will be explained by a detailed description of the method of manufacturing and arrangement of superspeed transport complex by Yunitski with reference to the accompanying drawings (<FIG>) showing the following:.

Method of manufacturing of superspeed transport complex by Yunitski involves installing on foundation <NUM> of supports <NUM> (of anchor <NUM>a and intermediate <NUM>b types), arrangement and fastening in spans <NUM> between supports <NUM> of, at least one prestressed by tensioning in longitudinal direction, trussed overpass <NUM> (see <FIG>, <FIG>, <FIG>), embodied as longitudinal trussed <NUM> track structure of string type with upper <NUM> and lower <NUM> chords of trussed track structure (see <FIG> and <FIG>) for self-powered <NUM> vehicle (of mounted <NUM> or suspended <NUM> types, correspondingly).

Depending on the properties of foundation <NUM>, place of installation and set of functions, supports <NUM> may have different design - in the form of towers, buildings, steel and reinforced concrete columnar and carcass / frame constructs and structures.

Depending on the design option and required technical parameters, trussed overpasses <NUM> are installed in spans <NUM> between supports <NUM>, representing any of the known trussed structures, the common feature of which is, in different embodiments, that they are the principal structural elements of the trussed <NUM> string-type track structure with increased rigidity and specific carrying capacity.

Thanks to the fact that, according to the proposed method, preliminary spanning <NUM> (according to the process of manufacturing of transport complex) is carried out, with truss overpasses <NUM> made in the form of longitudinal trussed <NUM> string-type track structure for self-powered <NUM> vehicle; it becomes possible to provide high-tech possibilities to create large-sized structure of superspeed transport complex in difficult conditions, since at this stage, to manufacture such large-sized structure, trussed overpass <NUM> with trussed <NUM> string-type track structure is used as "mounting equipment" for installation of components, and if necessary, of personnel, too, directly to the assembly site of the principal elements of the superspeed transport complex.

A further process of manufacturing of the claimed transport complex according to the present invention involves forming and fastening, on at least one trussed overpass <NUM>, transversely to the trussed <NUM> track structure, of the annular frames <NUM> (see <FIG> and <FIG>).

The annular frames <NUM> are fixed on the trussed <NUM> track structure by any of the known techniques, for example, by welding.

After that, on the inner A and outer B surfaces of the annular frames <NUM> (see <FIG>), the internal P1 and external P2 rows, respectively, of the load-bearing elements P, are arranged and fixed, with their subsequent stretching in longitudinal direction to the calculated force.

Alternative embodiments of the present invention are possible by forming two or more columns of annular frames <NUM> (not shown) on one or more trussed overpasses <NUM> (see <FIG>).

In any of the non-limiting embodiments of the proposed transport complex, at the next process stage, internal <NUM> and external <NUM> layers of the sealed evacuated tunnel <NUM> are formed with annular cross-section profile of its wall <NUM>. Moreover, the internal <NUM> and external <NUM> layers of the sealed evacuated tunnel <NUM> are formed of hardening composition <NUM>, for example, polymer.

The internal <NUM> and external <NUM> layers of the sealed evacuated tunnel <NUM> are formed by, for example, by spraying or extruding the hardening composition <NUM> onto the internal P1 and external P2 rows of the load-bearing elements P, respectively.

The internal <NUM> and external <NUM> layers, according to the design option, may be made of hardening composition <NUM>, for example polyurethane, and/or polyurea, and/or polyetheretherketone, and/or combinations thereof, which improve physical and operational characteristics of the transport complex.

During practical implementation of the subsequent stage of the manufacturing process of the proposed transport complex, the space V, formed between the internal <NUM> and external <NUM> layers of the wall <NUM> of the sealed evacuated tunnel <NUM>, is filled with the hardening material <NUM> of the intermediate <NUM> layer (see <FIG>, <FIG>).

Alternatively, depending on the design option and the required technical parameters, the hardening material <NUM> of the intermediate <NUM> layer is made containing load-bearing elements N of the intermediate layer <NUM>, prestressed by tensioning in longitudinal direction and fastened on the annular frames <NUM> (see <FIG>), which provides a significant increase in rigidity and specific bearing capacity, with improved physical and operational characteristics of the transport complex.

The above-mentioned load-bearing elements P and N, respectively, of the internal <NUM> and external <NUM>, as well as intermediate <NUM> layers of the wall <NUM> of the sealed evacuated tunnel <NUM>, tensioned in longitudinal direction, can be made in the form of twisted and/or non-twisted ropes, cables, wires, bands and/or other extended elements of any durable materials.

Most preferably, concrete is used as the hardening material <NUM> of the intermediate layer <NUM>. Hardening material <NUM> in the form of reinforced prestressed concrete ensures, at its low cost, an increase in the rigidity of the structure and the specific bearing capacity of the tunneled <NUM> track structure as a whole. In addition, special concrete has high armor protection and bulletproof quality.

It is also advisable that polymer concrete and/or foam concrete be used as the hardening material <NUM> of the intermediate layer <NUM>, which will facilitate the construction of the track structure of the transport complex while maintaining its operational characteristics.

Common for all cases of practical implementation of the proposed transport complex is that on the internal <NUM> layer of the wall <NUM> of the sealed evacuated tunnel <NUM>, at least one rail cord <NUM> of the tunneled <NUM> track structure for superspeed <NUM> vehicle is placed prestressed in longitudinal direction (see <FIG>, <FIG>), comprising body <NUM> with power unit <NUM> (see <FIG>).

Alternatively, in the tunneled <NUM> track structure, according to the design option, two or more (not shown on Figures) rail cords <NUM> for superspeed <NUM> vehicles may be provided.

According to any of the non-limiting embodiments of the present invention, alternatively, depending on the design option and required technical parameters, polymeric binders or cement mixtures with the addition of corrosion inhibitors, plasticizers and other additives may be used as hardening material <NUM> of the intermediate layer <NUM>, thereby providing a long protection period for load-bearing elements N (see <FIG>) of the intermediate layer <NUM> against corrosion and mechanical damage.

Hardening material <NUM> of intermediate layer <NUM> of sealed evacuated tunnel <NUM> and hardening materials (not shown on Figures) of the relevant load-bearing constructs of trussed <NUM> track structure of string type and rail cord <NUM> of tunneled <NUM> track structure, depending on design parameters of the corresponding parts of the specified track structures and technical feasibility, can be of the same appearance and type and possess identical composition, or of the different appearance and type and/or possess different composition.

At the same time, the hardening materials of the load-bearing constructs of the trussed <NUM> track structure of string-type and the rail cord <NUM> of the tunneled <NUM> track structure can be made of a material of the same kind and type and have the same composition, or - of materials of different type and/or have different composition with hardening compositions <NUM> of internal <NUM> and external <NUM> layers of wall <NUM> of sealed evacuated tunnel <NUM>.

As a result, due to the unification of the materials used, an increase in the processability and efficiency of the manufacturing process of the superspeed transport complex is achieved.

Additionally, in order to increase reliability and rigidity of the sealed evacuated tunnel <NUM>, it is advisable to bind the adjacent layers of its wall <NUM> to each other in the transverse direction along its entire length. For this purpose, according to the design option, reinforcing shells <NUM>, for example in the form of respective sleeves, or bands, for example of fiberglass fabric, may be fixed on the outer surface of the internal <NUM> layer and the inner surface of the external <NUM> layer of the wall <NUM> (see <FIG>). These reinforcing shells <NUM> are designed to occupy the boundary portions of the space V of the intermediate <NUM> layer and to be impregnated with the hardening material <NUM> of that intermediate <NUM> layer during the finishing operation of forming the wall <NUM> of the sealed evacuated tunnel <NUM>.

An alternative embodiment of the method of manufacturing of superspeed transport complex is forming and fastening on trussed overpass <NUM> of several (two or more) columns of annular frames <NUM> (not shown on Figures), as well as placement in spans <NUM> between supports <NUM> of two, three, four, or more trussed overpasses <NUM> (see <FIG>, <FIG> and <FIG>), shaping both the required number of trussed <NUM> track structures of string-type for self-powered <NUM> vehicles and the required number of tunneled <NUM> track structures for superspeed <NUM> vehicles, along which the respective vehicles can be driven by any of the known types of drive. Such embodiment makes it possible to significantly increase the performance (capacity) of both superspeed transport complex in various directions of traffic, including oncoming, and of its trussed <NUM> track structures (their upper <NUM> and lower <NUM> chords) due to the combined use, respectively, of mounted <NUM> and suspended <NUM> self-powered vehicles of various modifications and sizes (see <FIG>).

Hereby, the essence of the process of manufacturing of transport complex, with the number of both trussed <NUM> and tunneled <NUM> track structures different from one, corresponds to the above-described stages of the process of manufacturing of superspeed transport complex.

It is advisable that power unit <NUM> of superspeed <NUM> vehicle (as well as the self-powered <NUM> vehicle) represents an engine of any of the known types, for example, an engine of rotation, a flywheel accumulator of mechanical energy (such as a gyroscope), a linear electric motor, a propeller, a gas turbine, or in the form of their combinations, with appropriate operation life support and drive systems for driving (traction) wheels.

In the current state of the art, it is most preferred that the power unit <NUM> would be an electric motor in the form of a motor wheel (not shown on Figures).

Thanks to the use of high-tech ingredients and components in the form of mixtures, bulk, roll and/or similar materials in the creation of the tunneled <NUM> structure of the superspeed transport complex, the manufacturing of the superspeed transport complex can be carried out using a special small-sized construction combine / road header (not shown on Figures), which can be installed, for the period of construction, on one and/or several trussed <NUM> track structures instead of the corresponding self-powered <NUM> vehicles stipulated by the design option, which significantly improves the processability of manufacturing process of this complex.

At the same time, in the process of forming the tunneled <NUM> track structure, the combine simulates the natural load on the trussed overpasses <NUM>, which allows to take into consideration the deformation thereof and to ensure the required straightforwardness of the tunneled <NUM> track structure of the superspeed transport complex created thereby.

The combine, moving along the route along trussed overpasses <NUM>, provides for the tunneled <NUM> track structures for superspeed <NUM> vehicles mounted according to the design option.

In the final stage of manufacturing of superspeed transport system, the track structures (longitudinal trussed <NUM> track structure of string type for self-powered <NUM> vehicle, and tunneled <NUM> track structure for superspeed <NUM> vehicle), according to the design option, are equipped with stations <NUM> with respective boarding platforms <NUM> (see <FIG>). Buildings, or various structures can be used ss stations, including train stations, anchor supports and/or other building structures.

At stations <NUM>, it is advisable to equip the sealed evacuated tunnel <NUM> of the tunneled <NUM> track structure for superspeed <NUM> vehicle with gates (not shown on Figures).

For a specialist skilled in the art, it is understood that the presented idea of the claimed invention allows the use of a plurality of combinations of embodiments of the proposed method of manufacturing of superspeed transport system within different, non-exclusive combinations of all the above-mentioned embodiments.

The superspeed transport complex by Yunitski implemented according to the above described method as per present invention, comprises at least one trussed <NUM> track structure of string type (see <FIG> and <FIG>), installed on supports <NUM> (anchor <NUM>a and intermediate <NUM>b types, mounted from soil and distributed along foundation <NUM>), and fastened in spans <NUM> between these supports <NUM>. Trussed <NUM> track structure of string type is made in the form of trussed overpass <NUM>, prestressed by tensioning in longitudinal direction. The trussed overpass <NUM>, together with the trussed <NUM> track structure of string type, is provided with a self-powered <NUM> vehicle (mounted <NUM> or suspended <NUM>), as shown on <FIG>, <FIG>, <FIG> and <FIG>.

The structures of trussed overpasses <NUM> in spans <NUM> may be different depending on the terrain, design parameters and engineering viability / technical feasibility.

It is advisable to position trussed overpasses <NUM> in spans <NUM> in the quantity from one to six (depending on the length of spans <NUM> and design parameters of the transport complex), as shown, for example, on <FIG>.

On <FIG>, a layout view of superspeed transport complex with two trussed overpasses <NUM> and, accordingly, two trussed <NUM> track structures of string type, is shown.

<FIG> and <FIG> illustrate layout views of superspeed transport complex with three trussed overpasses <NUM>.

When implementing six trussed overpasses <NUM> in spans <NUM>, an additional economic effect is achieved (see <FIG>), which occurs by combining and sharing in use of mounted <NUM> and suspended <NUM> self-powered vehicles of various dimensions (see <FIG>), from the largest to the smallest sizes, with their various combinations, and, as a result, more intensive operation of the transport complex.

The structure of the proposed transport complex provides for the formation and fixation on at least one trussed overpass <NUM>, transversely to the trussed <NUM> track structure, of annular frames <NUM>, located at least in one column (see <FIG>). On the inner A and outer B surfaces of the annular frames <NUM>, arranged and fastened are, respectively, the internal P1 and external P2 rows of load-bearing elements P, which are subsequently stressed by tensioning in longitudinal direction (see <FIG>).

In a limit embodiment (not shown on Figures) of the arrangement according to the invention, one trussed <NUM> string track structure of overpass type is connected to one tunneled <NUM> track structure including a sealed evacuated tunnel <NUM> with an annular cross-sectional profile of its wall <NUM> consisting of internal <NUM>, external <NUM> and intermediate <NUM> layers.

Hereby, annular frames <NUM> are positioned from each other at the distance L, m, defined by the dependence: <MAT> where D, m - outer diameter of the sealed evacuated tunnel.

With the arrangement of the annular frames <NUM> at distance L, m, from each other, indicated in the dependence (<NUM>), it is possible to simply ensure the required rigidity and strength of the arrangement of the tunneled <NUM> track structure and optimize its materials intensity.

If the ratio (<NUM>) is less than <NUM>, then there is an unjustified overspending of structural materials and, as a result, - an increase in the cost of the track structure.

If the ratio (<NUM>) is more than <NUM>, it becomes problematic to ensure the required rigidity and straightness of the arrangement of the tunneled <NUM> track structure.

Hereby, annular frames <NUM> of wall <NUM> of sealed evacuated tunnel <NUM> are connected with each of its layers (internal <NUM>, external <NUM> and intermediate <NUM>), and, together with the respective rows P1 and P2 of load-bearing elements P and load-bearing elements N of intermediate <NUM> layer of wall <NUM> of sealed evacuated tunnel <NUM>, are forming the reinforced carcass of tunneled <NUM> track structure.

Fixing of internal P1 and external P2 rows of load-bearing elements P on annular frames <NUM>, as well as of load-bearing elements N of the intermediate <NUM> layer, can be performed in any known way, for example, by gluing, or kinematic locking (not shown on Figures), for example, by wedging in the corresponding holes (and/or slots).

By applying polymer hardening composition <NUM> onto the internal P1 and external P2 rows of load-bearing elements P, the internal <NUM> and external <NUM> reinforced monolithic layers of the wall <NUM> of the sealed evacuated tunnel <NUM> are formed, between which appears space V for the hardening material <NUM> of the intermediate <NUM> layer.

As the hardening composition <NUM>, for example, polyurethane, and/or polyurea, and/or polyetheretherketone, and/or combinations thereof are used, which ensures the durability of the structure and high processability of the manufacturing process of the claimed transport complex.

The formed space V of the intermediate <NUM> layer is thereby filled with the hardening material <NUM>.

As hardening material <NUM>, concrete is preferably used to fill the space V of the intermediate <NUM> layer. This will ensure the required strength, safety and rigidity of the wall <NUM> of the sealed evacuated tunnel <NUM>, with high processability of the manufacturing process of the tunneled <NUM> track structure and optimized costs.

Alternatively, as the hardening material <NUM> of the intermediate <NUM> layer, it is advantageous to use, for example, polymer concrete and/or foam concrete, which will facilitate the construction of the track structure of the transport complex while maintaining its field performance.

Improvements in operational characteristics of the intermediate layer <NUM> and the sealed evacuated tunnel <NUM> as a whole are ensured, as noted above, by reinforcing its volume with load-bearing elements N.

Hereby, the internal <NUM> and external <NUM> layers of wall <NUM> of sealed evacuated tunnel <NUM> are made with thicknesses, respectively, h<NUM>, m, and h<NUM>, m, defined by the ratios: <MAT> <MAT>.

When making the internal <NUM> and external <NUM> layers of the wall <NUM> with thicknesses h<NUM>, m, and h<NUM>, m, respectively, indicated in dependencies (<NUM>) and (<NUM>), it is possible to simply provide the required strength with a minimum materials intensity of their design (see <FIG>).

If the ratios (<NUM>) and (<NUM>) are less than <NUM>, then it is difficult to guarantee the rigidity stipulated by the design option, as well as durability and shape of the internal <NUM> and external <NUM> layers and wall <NUM> of the sealed evacuated tunnel <NUM> in general, at the subsequent filling with the hardening material <NUM> of the space V of the intermediate <NUM> layer formed therebetween.

If the ratios (<NUM>) and (<NUM>) are more than <NUM>, then there is an unjustified overrun of structural materials (including hardening composition <NUM>) and, as a result, - an increase in the cost of the track structure.

At the same time, the load-bearing elements P of the internal <NUM> and external <NUM> layers of the wall <NUM> of the sealed evacuated tunnel <NUM> are made (see <FIG>) with a diameter, d<NUM>, m, defined by the ratios: <MAT> <MAT>.

When implementing load-bearing elements P of the internal <NUM> and external <NUM> layers of the wall <NUM> with diameter, d<NUM>, m, indicated respectively in ratios (<NUM>) and (<NUM>), it is possible to quite simply ensure the required strength and geometry thereof.

If the ratios (<NUM>) and (<NUM>) are less than <NUM>, it is difficult to ensure the required rigidity, strength and shape of the internal <NUM> and external <NUM> layers and the wall <NUM> of the sealed evacuated tunnel <NUM> as a whole, when the space V of the intermediate <NUM> layer formed therebetween is subsequently filled with hardening material <NUM>.

If the ratios (<NUM>) and (<NUM>) are more than <NUM>, then there is an unjustified overrun of structural materials (including load-bearing elements P) and, as a result, an increase in the cost of the track structure.

Hereby, the adjacent load-bearing elements P of the internal <NUM> and external <NUM> layers of wall <NUM> of the sealed evacuated tunnel <NUM> are positioned (see <FIG>) between each other with gap δ, m, defined by the ratio: <MAT>.

The ratio (<NUM>) cannot be less than <NUM>, since the gap cannot be negative.

If the ratio (<NUM>) is more than <NUM>, the significant thickness of the hardening composition <NUM> in the gap δ, m, between adjacent load-bearing elements <NUM> will not provide the required strength, bearing capacity and geometry of internal <NUM> and external <NUM> layers of wall <NUM> of sealed evacuated tunnel <NUM> at subsequent filling with hardening material <NUM> of space V of the intermediate <NUM> layer formed between the said boundary layers (<NUM> and <NUM>).

Hereby, the intermediate layer <NUM> of wall <NUM> of sealed evacuated tunnel <NUM> is made with thickness h<NUM>, m, defined by the ratio: <MAT>.

When making the intermediate <NUM> layer of the wall <NUM> of the sealed evacuated tunnel <NUM> with thickness h<NUM>, m, indicated in ratio (<NUM>), it is possible to simply ensure the required rigidity and strength of the arrangement of the tunneled <NUM> track structure with its minimum material capacity (see <FIG>).

If the ratio (<NUM>) is less than <NUM>, then there is an unjustified overspending of structural materials and, as a result, an increase in the cost of the track structure.

Common for all load-bearing elements in different embodiments is that, for load-bearing structures of such elements of the transport complex, like: trussed <NUM> track structure of string type, and/or rail cord <NUM> of tunneled <NUM> track structure, and/or load-bearing elements P of internal <NUM> and external <NUM> layers, and/or load-bearing elements of intermediate <NUM> layer, - the following reinforcing elements can be used: high-strength steel wire, or twisted or untwisted steel ropes, as well as cords, strands, bands, tubes or other extended elements made of known high-strength materials in any combination thereof.

As noted above, in an alternative embodiment, depending on the requirements of the design option, reinforcing shells <NUM> may be fastened to the outer surface of the internal <NUM> layer and the inner surface of the external <NUM> layer (see <FIG>). Those reinforcing shells <NUM> are configured so that they are immersed in both the internal <NUM> and external <NUM> layers of the wall <NUM> by the hardening composition <NUM> and in the intermediate <NUM> layer thereof by the respective hardening material <NUM> along the entire length of the sealed evacuated tunnel <NUM>.

On the internal <NUM> layer of the wall <NUM> of the sealed evacuated tunnel <NUM>, positioned is at least one prestressed in longitudinal direction rail cord <NUM> of the tunneled <NUM> track structure for the superspeed <NUM> vehicle (see <FIG> and <FIG>).

Alternatively, in the tunneled <NUM> track structure, according to the design option, two or more rail cords <NUM> may be provided for superspeed <NUM> vehicle (not shown on Figures).

The superspeed <NUM> vehicle comprises body <NUM> with power unit <NUM>, ensuring sealing of the cabin during movement (see <FIG>).

In accordance with the design option, trussed <NUM> and tunneled <NUM> track structures are equipped with stations <NUM> with boarding platforms <NUM> (see <FIG>). As stations, buildings, or various structures can be used, including train stations, anchor supports and/or other building structures.

According to the author's design, when implementing the proposed technical approach, at least one trussed <NUM> string track structure of overpass type provides for, at the stage of operation of the superspeed transport complex, the functioning of the self-powered <NUM> vehicle (mounted <NUM>, or suspended <NUM>), and at the stage of construction - the assembling of sealed evacuated tunnel <NUM> of the tunneled <NUM> track structure of the superspeed <NUM> vehicle.

Alternatively, in accordance with the design option, the trussed overpasses, after installation of the tunneled <NUM> track structure, can be dismantled, which will save up materials and, as a result, reduce the cost of the transport complex as a whole.

Construction of the superspeed transport complex by Yunitski according to the present invention is carried out by the following technological operations.

Supports <NUM> (anchor <NUM>a and intermediate <NUM>b) are installed on bases prepared on foundation <NUM> from soil. Load-bearing member of the trussed <NUM> track structure is suspended on the supports <NUM> and stretched therebetween with subsequent fastening of the ends of the load-bearing elements in the anchor supports <NUM>a. Then trussed overpass <NUM> in form of longitudinal trussed <NUM> string-type track structure for self-powered <NUM> vehicle is mounted on load-bearing member in spans <NUM> between supports <NUM>.

After assembly, along the length of the entire track of at least one trussed <NUM> overpass prestressed by tensioning in longitudinal direction, the technological equipment is placed on its trussed <NUM> string-type track structure for the manufacture of the tunneled <NUM> track structure (for example, a special construction combine).

The subsequent stage of the manufacturing process involves the formation and fastening of annular frames <NUM>, for example - by welding on trussed <NUM> track structure. Following that, on inner A and outer B surfaces of annular frames <NUM>, internal P1 and external P2 rows, respectively, of load-bearing elements P are installed and fixed, tensioned between anchor <NUM>a supports, and via special through holes in annular frames <NUM>, the load-bearing elements N of the intermediate layer <NUM> of the tunneled <NUM> track structure are inserted and fixed in pretensioned state between the same anchor supports <NUM>a. As a result, a reinforced carcass of the tunneled <NUM> structure is formed. On the basis of the obtained carcass, the internal <NUM> and the external <NUM> layers of the wall <NUM> of the sealed evacuated tunnel <NUM> are first formed, and then its intermediate <NUM> layer is formed by applying hardening compositions <NUM> and hardening material <NUM> on the corresponding areas of the obtained carcass, into the space V formed between the internal and external layers of the wall of the sealed evacuated tunnel <NUM>.

Rail cord <NUM> of tunneled <NUM> track structure is fixed in shaped hermetically evacuated tunnel <NUM>, whereon superspeed <NUM> vehicle is installed.

At the final stage, the transport complex is equipped with stations <NUM> and boarding platforms <NUM>, and corresponding self-powered <NUM> vehicles are installed on trussed <NUM> track structures.

While the description and figures show preferred embodiments of the inventive method of manufacturing and arrangement of superspeed transport complex, it is clear that the invention is not limited thereto only and can be implemented in various embodiments using other known techniques and structural elements within the scope of said plurality of essential features of the invention; which can be changed, modified and supplemented within the scope defined by the claims and the submitted materials of the application for invention.

The proposed invention is industrially applicable since the superspeed transport complex can be realized under real conditions using standard equipment, modern materials and technologies.
