Title: Linear reluctance motor for the propulsion of rail transportation means

Abstract: A linear reluctance motor for the drive of rail transportation means which includes a primary part whose coils are fed with a.c. power while its secondary part is constructed rail-like, is arranged parallel to the track and is fixedly installed on the ground; the secondary part is thereby in the form of a toothed rack of ferromagnetic material whereby the primary part produces a magnetic field traveling cyclically in a direction opposite the drive direction and cooperating with the toothed rack.
