ABSTRACT:
Manual closure of a switch in a power-supply circuit to an explosive type bolt causes detonation of the bolt which releases a caged spring that thereupon is rendered effective to rock a lever in the direction to lift a current-collecting shoe out of engagement with the surface of a power-supply third rail thereby causing power knockout to the driving motors of an electrically propelled vehicle.
