Abstract

A mechanical, electrical and telecommunication system to electrically connect a vehicle to an electπαty source to transfer energy to the vehicle is presented In one rendition the system has a stationary portion on the road or infrastructure side, and a moving member on the vehicle The system is designed to tolerate misalignments of a parked vehicle with respect to the parking stall An important component of the system is a pair of πgid, insulating strips with a seπes of conductors on each of them, placed at approximately nght angles to each other One of the strips is mounted on the infrastructure or road side and the other on the vehicle The two strips cover the lateral and longitudinal misalignment of the parked vehicle As long as the two stnps have an overlap, the connection can be made by the conductors in the overlap region.
