Abstract

An aim of at least one embodiment of the invention is to reduce ripple forces in a magnetic levitation transport system to the largest extent. In one solution, an example embodiment of the invention provides that grooves extending transversal to the longitudinal direction are diagonally oriented in a magnet block for the long stator. In another solution, an example embodiment of the invention provides that, in a magnet block for the levitation magnet of a magnetic levitation transport system, pole heads, with regard to their outer areas, which extend next to outer grooves, are provided in a varied and complementary manner in the direction of the grooves whereby the overall width of both outer areas along the grooves always corresponds to the width of a tooth between the grooves. An embodiment of the invention also relates to a method for producing this magnet block.
