Abstract: This system allows the positioning of a vehicle in a recharging position with respect to a pad of a recharging station, wherein the vehicle carries a shoe gear which, once the vehicle is in the recharging position, is moved to come into contact with the pad. This system comprises: on the ground side, a generation module of a magnetic field, a characteristic quantity of which is a function of the position relative to a reference point of the generation module; and, on the onboard side, a magnetic field measuring module to measure the characteristic quantity and compare it with a reference value, in order to control the movement of the vehicle and stop it at a position relative to the reference point, wherein the relative position corresponds to the recharging position.

Abstract: A device is electrically connected to first and second terminals of an energy collector and provided with first and second electrical contacts intended to be placed in contact, for the electrical supply of the energy collector, respectively with first and second conjugated electrical contacts of a supply device on the ground, in turn electrically connected to an electrical power source. The device has a mesh connecting the second electrical contact and an output terminal connected to the second terminal of the energy collector, the mesh having a diode inserted between the second electrical contact and the second terminal of the energy collector so as to avoid the circulation of a current toward the second terminal of the energy collector.
