Cart-based power-to-signal converter (cross-section)
|
Where ▲ is E/W (N/S) track ramp ^ is a pressure plate, r is a roller (highest speed) . is E/W (N/S) track
Power feeds in beside the roller on the lower level. Rollers can not be powered from above.
A cart is fed into the system with a little push from the upper-level track. Ramps hold it in place over the roller. When powered, cart travels rapidly back and forth over pressure plate, maintaining 'on' state. This can then be used to power doors, bridges, etc.
