The electrical and collector slides in line 110 can feed electricity to the vehicle 5 placed on the cage 40 via the slip ring electrical device 50.
In addition, since the N conductive overhead lines 110 supported by the main structure 10 are separated from each other in the gap space G in the left-right direction and extend in the vertical direction in parallel, the gaps are generated when the pair of sprockets 20 are rotated. In the space G, N current collectors 120 out of a plurality of sets of N current collectors 120 supported by the main chain slide on N conductive overhead wires 110 to collect electricity, and slip rings Electricity can be supplied to the vehicle placed in the cage 40 via the electric device 50.

A pair of the current collectors are supported by the main chain so that the pair of the conductive overhead wires can be moved up and down with the pair of conductive overhead wires interposed therebetween.
The parking apparatus according to claim 1. An upper guide member that forms a linear trolley wire in which the conductive overhead line extends in the vertical direction, and an upper inclined surface that is an inclined surface that increases in width as it moves upward from the upper end portion of the trolley wire, and a lower end portion of the trolley wire A lower guide member that forms a lower inclined surface, which is an inclined surface whose width increases as it moves downward from
A current collector brush that collects electricity when the current collector contacts the trolley wire, a current collector brush cover that surrounds the current collector brush, and a current collector brush that is attached to the trolley wire through the current collector brush cover. With a biasing mechanism that biases with biasing force,
When the current collector starts to move from above and slides on the conductive overhead wire, the current collecting brush is moved downward by being guided by the upper guide member, and then the current collecting brush is moved to the trolley. Touch the wire,
When the current collector starts to move from below and slides on the conductive overhead wire, the current collector brush cover is guided by the lower guide member and moved upward, and then the current collector brush is moved to the trolley. Touch the wire,
The parking apparatus according to claim 1. An upper sliding member in which the conductive overhead wire is connected to a linear trolley wire extending in the vertical direction and an upper sliding surface which is connected to the upper end portion of the trolley wire and has the same height as the sliding surface of the trolley wire. And an upper guide member that forms an upper inclined surface that is an inclined surface that increases in width as it moves upward from the upper end of the trolley line, and a lower surface of the trolley line connected to the lower end of the trolley line. A lower sliding member that forms a lower sliding surface that matches the thickness, and a lower guide member that forms a lower inclined surface that is an inclined surface that increases in width as it moves downward from the lower end of the trolley wire,
A current collector brush that collects electricity when the current collector contacts the trolley wire, a current collector brush cover that surrounds the current collector brush, and a current collector brush that is attached to the trolley wire through the current collector brush cover. With a biasing mechanism that biases with biasing force,
When the current collector starts to move from above and slides on the conductive overhead wire, the current collector brush is moved downward while being guided by the upper guide member while moving the current collector brush cover.
