SYSTEM USED TO PROVIDE AN ELECTRICAL CONNECTION BETWEEN A VEHICLE AND A CHARGING STATION OR SIMILAR

摘要

The invention relates to a system that is used to provide an electrical connection between a vehicle and a charging station or similar. The invention comprises a vehicle (1) which can move on a surface and a station (2) which is distinct from the vehicle. Both the vehicle and the station are provided with connectors (3; 4). The connectors (3; 4) can be plugged into one another and one of said connectors can occupy any plugged-in position included in a range of lateral and angular positions for plugging said connector into the other, said positions extending in a plane that is parallel to the surface. Preferably, one (4) of the connectors comprises two terminals (19; 20) between which two terminals (13; 14) belonging to the other connector (3) can be inserted. The inventive assembly enables a vehicle (1) battery to be charged very quickly by the station (2).
