ABSTRACT Company known as: FAIVELEY TRANSPORT "Device for adjusting the bearing force of a pantograph on a catenary wire and process relating thereto" (Invention of Jacques CATHALA and Pascal FORTE) A device (1) for adjusting the bearing force of a pantograph (30) of a railroad train set (10) on a catenary wire (2), said pantograph (30) having, at its upper end, a bow (3) in mechanical and electrical contact with the catenary wire (2) and being connected mechani- cally to actuator means (7, 34) exerting a nominal force on it at predetermined points and in a predetermined direction. This device comprises: - means (31) for measuring the contact force between the bow (3) of the pantograph (30) and the catenary wire (2) and for supplying information relating to the measured force, - means (5, 4a) for transmitting the measurement information from said measuring means (31, 40) into an appropriate zone of the railroad train set (10), - means (60, 20) for processing the transmitted information and set-point range dignals and for supplying logical control signals, and - means (50) for controlling said actuator means (6, 7) from said logical control signals when the measu- red contact force exceeds a predetermined maximum force threshold (Smax) or in response to predetermined external control signals. Use for the equipment of pantographs of very high-speed railroad train sets traveling along lines with conventional catenaries of variable height. (see Figure 1).
