Energy-regulating system for a vehicle
First Claim
1. An energy-regulating system for a vehicle suitable for public transport between a departure station and an arrival station, the departure station separated from the arrival station by a predetermined run, the energy-regulating system comprising:
- a high-power electrical storage device placed on board the vehicle and any energy recovered during braking of the vehicle is stored in said storage device;
an electrical battery of high mass energy placed on board said vehicle and electrically connected to said storage device;
an electrical charging area disposed at the departure station for charging said storage device on the vehicle, said electrical charging area being activated in charging mode from a moment residual energy of said storage device of the vehicle is less than a variable threshold dependent on an energy balance of the vehicle estimated beforehand at least up to the arrival station;
said high-power electrical storage device connected to primarily supply electrical power to the vehicle with traction power, at least during an acceleration phase; and
said electrical battery of high mass energy connected to secondarily supply the vehicle with the electrical power in an additional way to said storage device of the vehicle at a constant speed of the vehicle.

Abstract
An energy-regulating system for a vehicle, suitable for use in a mass transportation system between a departure station and an arrival station along a predetermined route, has advantageously a high-power electrical storage device placed on board the vehicle, supplying power to the vehicle, at least during acceleration. The energy recovered during braking of the vehicle is stored in the storage device. At least the departure station includes an electrical charging area capable of charging the storage device of the vehicle and activated in a charging mode as soon as the residual energy of the storage device of the vehicle is below a variable threshold dependent on an early estimate of the energy balance of the vehicle at least up to the arrival station.
