It is comprised by.

  When the charging means 60 is used as a bicycle parking lot such as an apartment, the bicycle parking lot is mainly for the purpose of preventing theft.

  The operation of the first locking device 10 will be described. The wheel Y of the bicycle X is placed on the guide frame 3 as shown in FIG. Since the length of the guide frame 3 is substantially the same as the diameter of an average bicycle wheel, for example, the length on which a 26-inch bicycle wheel rides, as described above, the first locking device 10 is Since the guide frame 3 is inclined in the direction of the support column 2 because the wheel Y moves in the direction of the locking device by its own weight, the unauthorized parking can be prevented.

  When the wheel Y is placed on the guide frame 3, the wheel Y moves in its inclined direction by its own weight, and the tip of the wheel comes into contact with the wheel stopper 17 of the operating plate 16 from the insertion groove 12 of the substrate 11. It moves forward by its own weight.

  Since the operation plate 16 is guided by the upper and lower guide plates 24 and 27, the operation plate 16 smoothly moves back and forth without moving left and right, and a plurality of guide balls are interposed between the lower guide plate 27 and the lower surface of the operation plate 16. By interposing 30, the frictional resistance between the operating plate 16 and the lower guide plate 27 can be reduced, and it can be moved back and forth smoothly.

Then, as shown in FIG. 7, at the same time the actuation plate 16 moves forward by being pushed by the wheel, the arms 3 and simultaneously presses the pressing projections 3 7 of each movable arm 35 which is in contact with the back surface of the wheel stopper portion 17 6 Rotates around the support shaft 43, and the lock portion 40 at the tip of the movable arm comes close to and comes into contact with each other from the left and right horizontal directions and locks to hold the wheel Y.

  When the lock part 40 of the movable arm 35 comes into contact with each other from the left and right horizontal directions, and when the operating piece 16 enters the deepest part, the tip of the sensing part 20 comes into contact with the support column 15 and stops. The sensing switch 53 attached to one side is pressed to signal the charging means 60 that the bicycle X is parked.

  The signal is confirmed by the parking signal processing means 62, and signals are issued to the timer means 63 and the lock signal processing means 69, respectively. The timer is started, and at the same time, the solenoid 50 is turned on to rotate the locking piece 46. Lock the plate 16.

As shown in FIG. 8, when the movable iron core 51 of the solenoid 50 presses and rotates the latching change 46, the end of the latching claw portion 48 is aligned with the corresponding locking hole. 13a, the guide hole 28 of the lower guide plate 27, the locking hole 19 of the operating plate 16, and the guide groove 25 of the upper guide plate are protruded and locked to stop the longitudinal movement of the operating plate 16.

  When the bicycle X is detached from the first locking device 10, when a settlement button (not shown) is pressed, the parking time measured by the timer means 63 is converted into a parking price and the parking price is displayed on the display means 65. Then, after putting the price into the coin receiving means 66 and performing coin identification, the settlement means 68 confirms that the amount identified by the coin identification means 67 and the amount computed by the computation means 64 match, When an OFF signal is sent from the lock signal processing means 69 to the solenoid, the solenoid 50 is demagnetized. When the solenoid 50 is demagnetized, the operating iron core 51 returns to the original position, and at the same time, the locking claw portion 48 rotates downward due to its own weight, and from the locking hole 19 of the operating plate 16 and the guide hole 28 of the lower guide plate 27. The lock of the operating plate 16 is released by dropping and lowering downward.

  When the wheel Y is moved away from the insertion groove 12 of the substrate 11 after the lock of the actuating plate 16 is released, the pressing force of the actuating plate 16 that has pressed the movable arm 35 is lost, and the movable arm becomes an actuating spring. 42 is moved backward together with the operation plate 16 by the elastic force of 42 to open the lock portion 40, and the wheel Y is released to unlock.

  The sensing switch 53 does not send a switch signal immediately after parking, but delays the transmission of the ON signal for a certain time (preferably 20 to 30 seconds) or frees the parking fee for the first hour. By doing so, it is possible to prevent accidental parking and erroneous parking after the parking fee is settled.

  A second embodiment according to the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. FIG. 11 is a longitudinal sectional view showing a state before the second locking device according to the present invention is locked, and FIG. 12 is after the second locking device according to the present invention is locked. FIG. 13 is a DD cross-sectional view of FIG. 12, and FIG. 14 is an enlarged cross-sectional view of a main part showing a state in which the guide frame is locked by a locking piece and a solenoid.

  The second locking device 100 is formed with a protective frame 103 that is vertically long in cross section and formed in a reverse portal shape at substantially the center in the longitudinal direction of the outer frame 102 that is opened upward and formed in a horseshoe cross section. The guide frame 105 is pivotally supported so that one end thereof is rotated by a load when the wheel Y of the bicycle X enters or is mounted in the direction, and the guide frame is generated by the rotation of the guide frame in a substantially central width direction of the guide frame. A pair of movable arms 112 that can be opened and closed so as to hold a part of the wheel from the left-right vertical direction by a load, and the bicycle lowering the guide frame 105 sense that the bicycle has parked on the guide frame.

(Not shown). The charging means 60 attached to the second locking device 100 is the same as that of the first locking device 10 and will not be described here.

  Hereinafter, the operation of the second locking device 100 will be described. The length of the guide frame 105 is substantially the same as the diameter of the bicycle wheel, for example, the length on which the bicycle wheel with a diameter of 26 inches rides. Further, it is possible to prevent unauthorized parking at a position where the locking device does not operate, and to prevent unauthorized parking by tilting in the direction of the support column by the weight of the wheel when the wheel Y gets on the guide frame 105.

  When the guide frame 105 rotates downward due to the weight of the wheel Y placed on the guide frame 105, the movable arm 112 is locked while holding a part of the wheel Y from the left-right vertical direction by the pressing force of the guide frame. . Next, when the front end of the guide frame 105 rotates to the lowermost position, the switch piece 109 hits the sensing switch 130, senses that the bicycle is parked, and activates the solenoid 133 and the charging means 60. When the solenoid 133 is turned on, the movable iron core 134 protrudes and presses and rotates the locking piece 125 so that the locking claw portion 127 is hooked on the locking portion 108 of the guide frame 105 and locked.

  To release the second locking device 100, when the OFF signal is issued from the lock signal processing means by paying the displayed bicycle parking fee or by inputting a password or a card, the solenoid 133 is demagnetized to move the movable iron core 134. At the same time, the latching claw 127 rotates rearward by its own weight and moves away from the latching portion 108 to unlock the guide frame 105. Further, when the wheel load is removed from the guide frame 105 and the guide frame 105 is rotated upward, the movable arm 112 is opened by the elastic force of the spring 116 attached to the movable arm 112 and the own weight of the lock portion 118 to make the wheel free. Can be unlocked.
