경량전철 제 3궤조 집전특성에 관한 연구(I)

In the design of the light rail transit which is more reliable and economical, it is essential to develope a efficient third rail system. Especially, the analysis for the conductivity of conduct rail and the wear of collecting shoe is the first step of its development. In this paper, experiments for conductivity in conductor rail, wear in collecting shoe were performed respectively as different materials of conductor rail and current collector. Noise level and interruption, wear and contact resistance of collecting shoe were proposed as design parameters for the development of this system. Experimental equipment and methods of design parameter stated above were proposed, which is expected that analyzed results will be used as a basic data for the development of the system.
