Summary:PURPOSE:To keep the steering stability of a vehicle without integrating a large- scaled device into the vehicle by providing an air discharge and posture control part for ejecting the air sucked in an air suction part into which the air is taken by the advance of the vehicle toward both side walls of an orbit and controlling the posture of the vehicle by this reaction. CONSTITUTION:Air is taken by utilizing the air pressure at the time of running a magnetic levitation train through an air intake duct 3 disposed on the outer surface of the vehicle body 1 of the train, and this air is ejected to the outside of the vehicle through a discharge hole 4. The discharge hole 4 is turned to a guide way side wall 16 and generates a force at a right angle to the advancing direction of the vehicle body 1. A control unit for measuring the distance between the guide way side wall 16 and the vehicle body 1 by a laser displacement gauge and ejecting air in the direction for preventing horizontal oscillation is provided. Thus, the posture of the vehicle body can be controlled, and running stability can be held.
