Abstract
AUTOMATIC COUPLING SYSTEM BETWEEN A MOVING TRANSPORT VEHICLE AND FIXED TRANSPORT NETWORK EQUIPMENT The invention relates to an automatic coupling system between a moving vehicle (10) and fixed equipment (12) of the transport network on which said moving vehicle is intended to travel, said coupling system being characterized in that it comprises two coupled coupling devices comprising a movable coupling device (20) intended to be mounted on the moving vehicle and a fixed coupling device intended to be mounted on the fixed equipment, each coupling device comprising a coupling head comprising each of the coupling guide horns (23, 43), a mechanical coupler (24, 44), a low-voltage electrical coupler (22, 42), a power electrical coupler (25; 45) and a computer coupler (26, 46).
