Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	A vehicle power transfer system includes a current collector device, one or more actuators, and a controller. The current collector device is configured to be mounted on a vehicle and is movable relative to the vehicle. The current collector device is configured to receive electrical energy from an offboard power source for powering one or more operations of the vehicle. The controller is configured to determine an occurrence of a designated extend event. The controller is configured to control the one or more actuators to move the current collector device in an extending direction away from the vehicle for electrically connecting to a current-carrying device of the offboard power source in response to the occurrence of the designated extend event.
