A positioning unit and a method for forming an electrically conductive connection between a stationary charging station and a vehicle using a positioning unit, the positioning unit having a positioning device and a drive unit for driving the positioning device. A charging contact is positionable between a contacting position for transmitting current and a retraction position for interrupting current by the positioning device. The drive unit includes a displacement drive acting on the positioning device and a spring device capable of providing a contact force on the charging surface. The positioning device includes a fixed bearing, an upper segment, and a lower segment, which are linearly movable in the vertical displacement direction. The spring device includes a contact spring coupled with the fixed bearing and the upper segment, which is moveable in relation to the lower segment by means of the displacement drive.
