ABSTRACT:
The present invention provides an improved magnetic levitation system for the stable or rigid levitation of a body. The object to be levitated is maintained in an equilibrium position above a flat guideway or a plurality of continuous guideways. The rigidity of the levitation is at least in part achieved by the orientation of the axis through the poles of the magnet in a direction perpendicular to the direction of relative motion between the magnet and the conductor.
