Description

State of the art

The basic principle is constructed like the interchangeable garage, ωα several vehicles, container trailers etc. can be parked on top of each other and behind each other via a driveway of 3 meters wide and a length of 20-60 meters.

The disadvantage of the interchangeable garage is that the space cannot be used optimally ^because the distance between the individual parking boxes must be kept wide in order to ensure trouble-free operation due to the transfer at both ends of the gear wheels from top to bottom or vice versa.

This unavoidable loss of space is better distributed in the newly developed parking robot, because the objects are not transported lengthways but perpendicular to the direction of travel.

Description

The reason for the invention is to create a parking system that enables the automatic parking of PKIiTs in a continuous, convenient and practical way through an entry and exit on a continuous belt. This is achieved with this invention and is described as follows: Parking robot consists of a chain belt that is guided at both ends over at least one gear disk; the parking boxes are attached to chain bushings between two identical chain belts attached next to each other. The parking boxes consist of a frame with a sliding carriage attached underneath, which is provided with a floor (platform); a slewing ring is incorporated in the middle of this platform. Another platform is attached to this slewing ring. If the upper platform is turned 75 degrees to the right, the driveway of the parking box is freed up and by simultaneously extending the sliding carriage, the driveway of the parking box is extended in the direction of travel. The car to be parked can be parked in the parking box. The upper platform of the parking box now rotates 75 degrees back to its old position and two tension springs ensure that the sliding carriage is retracted at the same time. The car is now positioned in the parking box perpendicular to the direction of travel. All parking boxes belonging to the parking robot are equipped in this way. The cars can now be sorted out individually and placed in the parking box ready for use.

The innovation is explained in more detail below using an embodiment shown in the drawing;

The parking robot consists of two chain belts running next to each other, which consist of two gear disks 16, 17 and the chain 13 and 18; the individual parking boxes 11 are fastened between the parallel chain belts with the chain bolt 15, and rollersiS are attached to the lower four corners of the individual parking boxes 11 in order to move them along the rails 20.

This parking robot can also be installed halfway underground, so that the parking box 11 located above can be easily parked on the gear wheel 17 in this position. In this case, the parking box function is activated via the U-end rail 21, and the attached platform 22 provides the necessary accident protection. The attached sliding carriage 9 of the parking box 11 also provides the necessary driveway extension in this case by connecting the driveway with the parking box 11.

Sliding troughs 23 are attached to the gear disks 16, 17 in the area of the individual teeth, which, with the help of the sliding roller 1<4, lift the individual parking boxes 11 from bottom to top and from top to bottom in order to relieve the chain pins 15; thus the chain 13, 18 is only subjected to tensile stress.

The individual parking boxes will slide in the U-rail 20 with four transport rollers 12. The drive is via the gear discs 16, 17 according to the prescribed direction of travel.

The parking box consists of a parking box frame 11 into which a sliding carriage 9 is inserted; on both sides of the sliding carriage 9 there are at least two movement rollers 6 which slide in U-rails on the right and left of the parking box frame in order to enable trouble-free entry and exit.

f &diams; ·«

Two tension springs 7 which are attached to the right and left arm of the parking box frame 11 and are connected to the sliding carriage 9 ensure that the sliding carriage 9 can be retracted into the parking box.

The sliding carriage 9 forms a common element with the platform placed on it and it is intended to attach a rotating ring 8 to the front center of this platform 9, which in turn is connected flush with the platform 10; thus the rotating ring 8 has an eccentric position, which is advantageous for the parking box extension. The parking box can now be extended in the direction of travel by extending the sliding carriage 9 and simultaneously rotating the platform 1D.

When the platform 1G is turned to the right by 75 degrees, the parking box is made ready for parking via the roller h which slides against the turning rail 21; by turning the platform 10 to the left to the transverse position, the parking position is brought about. If the platform 10 turns again to the left by a further 75 degrees, the exit is extended again via the roller 5 with the help of sliding against the end rail 21 and the parked car is now ready to drive out in the direction of travel in the parking box.
