An electric drive dump truck travels by contacting, with trolley lines, power collection units configured to be moved up and down by lifting devices and receiving electrical power from the trolley lines. A position detection device is configured to detect a position of the electric drive dump truck; a vehicle speed detection device is configured to detect a vehicle speed of the electric drive dump truck; and a storage section is configured to store a position of the trolley lines and a time (hereinafter referred to as a moving-up time) until the power collection units contact with the trolley lines since the power collection units start moving up. A control device is configured to output a signal indicating that the power collection units can be moved up based on the position and vehicle speed of the electric drive dump truck, the position of the trolley lines, and the moving-up time.

A system for supplying power to a trolley chain. The system includes: a trolley chain, consisting of at least two trollies coupled with one another, wherein the trolley chain has a closed bus; and a stationary energy conductor along the track of the trolley chain. The stationary energy conductor consists of one or more successive segments, which are spaced apart from each other. The closed bus has several transmission heads, which are designed to supply the closed bus with electricity from the stationary energy conductor without contacting the stationary energy conductor, if they are within a pre-determined distance to the stationary energy conductor. During a journey of the trolley chain along the track, at each moment in time, at least one of the transmission heads supplies the closed bus with electricity from the stationary energy conductor.

Effectively control the temperature of a control unit of a railway equipment inspecting and measuring apparatus, and install the control unit of the railway equipment inspecting and measuring on the roof of the passenger car. The first space is formed between the control unit and the heat insulating case. The second space is formed between the heat insulating case and the cover. In the first space, heat is conducted between the air in the first space and the heat exchange element by the first heat conducting member, and the first fan causes circulation of the air in the first space. In the second space, heat is conducted between the air in the second space and the heat exchange element by the second heat conducting member, and the air inside the second space is diffused by blowing the air from a suction port into the second space with the second fan.
