ABSTRACT:
The transport system comprises a rail and an undercarriage provided with two running wheels arranged in the longitudinal axis of the undercarriage. The running wheels have curved travel or bearing surfaces which rest upon a complementary curved supporting surface of the rail. The undercarriage is guided by a pair of guiding rollers arranged below the rail supporting surface, these guiding rollers engaging a guiding web extending perpendicularly between the guiding rollers. During travelling along curves the undercarriage is inclined towards the interior or inner side, whereby the occurring centrifugal forces are compensated.
