摘要:
The invention relates to a non-rail-bound vehicle (10), in particular a lorry or bus, having a current collector (20) for feeding in electrical energy from an overhead line installation having at least one contact wire (1, 2), wherein the current collector (20) has at least one contact strip (23) with a working region (b) for making contact with the at least one contact wire (1, 2). The vehicle (10) comprises actuating means (30) which are coupled to the current collector (20) and have the purpose of adjusting the at least one contact strip (23), wherein the at least one contact strip (23) is oriented horizontally and can be adjusted transversely with respect to a vehicle longitudinal axis (11). The vehicle (10) also comprises sensor means (40) for sensing the position of the vehicle (10) relative to the at least one contact wire (1, 2). Furthermore, the vehicle (10) comprises a control device (50) which is connected to the sensor means (40) and the actuator means (30) and is designed to actuate the actuating means (30) as a function of the vehicle position sensed by the sensor means (40), in such a way that the at least one contact strip (23) maintains the contact with the at least one contact wire (1, 2) within its working range (b). As a result, the vehicle (10) can reliably maintain the contact with the contact wire (1, 2) via the current collector (20) of said vehicle (10) during operation on multi-lane roadways with an at least partially electrified roadway, even at relatively high speeds of, for example, 80 to 100 km/h.
