ELECTRIC CURRENT TRANSFER BY SLIDING CONTACT Russian patent published in 2018 - IPC B60L5/20 

FIELD: transportation; electricity.

SUBSTANCE: group of inventions refers to the current collectors of vehicles with electric traction. Electric current transfer device (100) is located between the moving element and the fixed element movable relative to each other by strip (30) and comprises strip support (6) and pressing means (10). Pressing means (10) is designed to be capable of applying force to strip (30) pressing it against support (6), said force being transverse with respect to the longitudinal direction. Pressing means (10) comprises pressing means located at a distance from each other and/or the strip support comprises supports separated from each other. Pressing means and/or the supports are adapted to occupy only the longitudinal portion along 50 % or less of the length of strip (30). Pressing means comprises an element with inclined surfaces and a spring means. Spring means is located on a strip side that is opposite to the side intended for rubbing against one of the elements. Tool for opening pressing means (10), a pantograph system including electric current transfer device (100) and method for installing and/or removing of strip (30) are also claimed.

EFFECT: technical result consists in simplifying the installation and/or removing of the conductive strip.
