Abstract
This invention comprises an arrangement, adapted to letting water, rain water, melted ice and snow water or the like, to pass by electrical conductors (4a, 4b) and its contact surfaces (4a, 4b) and is related to a rail structure, where said arrangement, in the form of contact means ((4)) such as a current collector (41, 41) for driving an electric and by one or more batteries driven vehicle (1) along a stretch of roadway (2), adapted system (5) comprising: “a” one or more over an electric motor or individual electric motors (5) propellable vehicle (1) and “b” a plurality of road sections dividing the stretch of the roadway (2), each one being allotted one or more electric stations (“s1”, “III”) for thereby charging the batteries (B) of the vehicle (1) and/or supplying the required power and energy for driving the vehicle. At least three tracks (51a, 51, 52) are oriented parallel to each other in a common rail structure (30), where at least two of these tracks (51, 52) are adapted to support and enclose individual rails with contact surfaces (4a′, 4b′), which may be subjected to voltage, and that at least one track (51a) is disposed closer to the upper most portion (501) of the roadway (2) and adjacent to a track (51) for one of said rails (41) and its contact surface, which may be subjected to voltage.
