Abstract: A current collector for electrically supplying an electrical load which is movable along a conductor line. The current collector has a fastening element and at least one sliding contact with an elongate sliding contact surface, which extends in a longitudinal direction, for sliding contact with an electrically conducting line profile, which extends in the longitudinal direction, of the conductor line. The sliding contact is articulated on the fastening element at spaced apart fastening regions, so as to be movable in a feeding plane extending parallel to the longitudinal direction by means of two articulated lever arrangements. A resetting device acting on the articulated lever arrangements and on the fastening element is provided which, when the sliding contact is deflected from an inoperative position, in which the sliding contact surface preferably extends substantially parallel to the longitudinal direction, moves the sliding contact back into the inoperative position.

Abstract: The invention relates to: a conductor line (2) for powering at least one device (11) that can travel along the conductor line (2), comprising a first elongated conductor lane (5b) and at least one other, second elongated conductor lane (6b), wherein the first (5b) and second (6b) conductor lanes comprise a first (5f) and a second (60f) contact opening, respectively, running along the length of the respective lane, for holding a part (15a; 16a) of a first (15) and a second (16) respective conductor contact of a collector (14) of the device (11); a collector (3) comprising at least one first conductor contact (15) provided for engaging into a first contact opening (5f) running along the length of a first conductor lane (5b) of the conductor line (2) and for electrically connecting to the first conductor lane (5b); and a conductor line system (1) formed therefrom.
