Patent ID: 8477004

Claim:
A magnet pole for magnetic levitation vehicles, containing: an iron core ( 1 ) having an upper pole surface ( 2 ), a lower contact surface ( 3 ) for a magnet rear side ( 4 ) and a circumferential surface ( 5 ) disposed between the pole surface ( 2 ) and the contact surface ( 3 ), and a coil ( 6 ) applied onto the circumferential surface ( 5 ) of the iron core ( 1 ), an intermediate layer ( 7 ) made of an electrically insulating material, which is disposed between the circumferential surface ( 5 ) and the coil ( 6 ), and a protective layer ( 9 ) which encapsulates the coil ( 6 ) and at least the pole surface ( 2 ) of the iron core ( 1 ), is made of a hard material, and abuts the circumferential surface ( 5 ) in a lower region of the iron core ( 1 ), wherein the protective layer ( 9 ) contains a section ( 15 ) made of an elastic material in a region adjacent to the circumferential surface ( 5 ).
