Method of transferring a vehicle module over an infrastructure, infrastructure, vehicle module and use thereof

A method of transferring a vehicle module over an infrastructure, comprising

• providing said infrastructure, wherein the infrastructure comprises
• at least one individual track,
• wherein each track comprises at least one series of coils, wherein series of coils extend in the direction of the width of the track, wherein each series of coils is adapted to provide a levitational magnetic force wherein coils are placed at a distance from one another, at least one switch per series of coils, wherein each coil individually can be energized by an electrical current and de-energized, wherein each coil is adapted to be energized in a pulsed mode, wherein on at least one side of the track side coils are provided adapted to provide a larger magnetic field than central coils at a central part of the track,
• at least one controller for energizing individual coils such that at a side of the track a larger magnetic field is provided than at a central part of the track,
• an electrical power supply for providing an electrical current,
• providing said vehicle module, wherein said vehicle module comprises an array of permanent magnets, at a bottom side thereof,
• providing a vertical magnetic field in the track at a location of the vehicle module, thereby lifting the module,
• providing a horizontal magnetic field in the track at a changing location of the vehicle module, thereby hovering the module at a certain speed in a horizontal direction over the track,
• providing an opposite magnetic field in the track controlling the horizontal magnetic field, thereby decelerating the module, and
• cancelling the vertical magnetic field in the track thereby letting the module down to the track.
