Definitions

  • the invention was designed with the intention of providing a consider­able contribution towards solving the problem of creating car-parks in town centres, where, given the ever increasing number of motor vehicles in circulation, it is becoming more and more difficult, if not actually impossible, to find an available space to temporarily park a vehicle.
  • the basic idea of the system according to the invention is to offer the possibility of parking a large number of vehicles, even in areas where there is the greatest demand, by using a particularly rapid parking technique which requires no manual intervention and entails no risk to the safety of the motor vehicles.
  • This system comprises a circular structure on several levels, each of these levels having an annular track on which concentric rings are mounted, which are able to rotate in an autonomous manner, by means of a suitable drive mechanism.
  • the concentric rings can be different widths, so as to make the best possible use of the space available or so as to be able to adapt the spaces to suit the various types of vehicle according to their dimensions.
  • the rings nearest to the lift truck pillar have a track not to be used for parking, along which the vehicle can travel in order to reach the selected parking space.
  • the automatic parking operation by means of the system at reference, it can be said that the driver merely has to position his vehicle in the vicinity of the lift truck, after which the electronic brain of the system, having singled out a suitable parking space for the vehicle, then sets the lift truck in motion, on which in the meantime, the vehicle has been positioned, and simultaneously sets the concentric rings in rotation on the level on which the car will actually be parked, in such a way that when the lift truck reaches the established level, the car will be lifted from it and guided in a single rectilinear movement, drawn by an automatic mechanism, to the empty space which has been selected for it and which in the meantime, has already been prepared exactly in front of the lift truck itself.
  • This parking system is extremely practical in that when the lift truck ascends vertically, the concentric rings rotate simultaneously, so that the vehicle can be immediately positioned in the space assigned to it, as soon as it reaches the level selected, without the waste of time encountered for example, in automatic storage systems, in which the articles to be arranged, must first of all be lifted ve­rtically and are then moved horizontally until they reach their assigned space, after these two different actions have been effected one after the other.
  • the article to be arranged finds its own space under suitable guidance, while on the other hand, in the system at reference, once the vehicle reaches the level selected, the space assigned to it on each separate occasion, actually appears directly in front of the vehicle.
  • the system at reference makes the orderly parking of motor vehicles extremely simple but above all, greatly reduces the time necessary for this operation. Consequently, due to the structural layout of the system, it is possible to park a considerably larger number of vehicles than in other modern more or less automated car parks in the same space of time
  • the system according to the inve­ntion is also preferable because of the particular shape of its construction; in fact, its circular structure on the one hand, guara­ntees optimum use of the spaces available and on the other, lends itself most efficiently to controlling earth thrust in underground construction, in consideration of the fact that it is of no conseq­ence if the system at reference is actually adopted on steel or reinforced concrete structures, in totally underground, multi-storey or mixed constructions.
  • the task of lifting the cars has been ass­igned to two lift-trucks, which autonomously slide vertically on opposite sides along a pillar, positioned precisely in the centre of the structure, namely the space circumscribed by the various rings one above the other; it should be noted however, that within the scope of the same inventive idea, there is nothing to prevent said pillar on its own or with other similar pillars, from being position­ed in the area surrounding the outermost ring on each level; in this case, the car loading operation on the various levels would not take place from the outside towards the inside, but vice-versa.
  • the central pillar to support four diff­erent lift trucks, which slide vertically along four sets of rails applied to the pillar itself at regular 90° intervals of space; in this case, the pillar itself could be provided with the possibility of rotating around its longitudinal vertical axis, thus being able to maintain the same position for the entry and exit of the vehicles. In the same way, this possibility of rotating could also be applied on the pillar which supports only two lift trucks; if this were the case, this solution would allow the direction in which the cars enter and exit to be orientated in the best possible manner.
  • the system is composed of a series of annular tracks one above the other (1), above which, sev­eral flat concentric rings (2) can rotate and on which the vehicles are actually parked.
  • the number (5) indicates the spaces which the innermost concentric rings on each floor must keep free, to allow the vehicles drawn by the lift truck to reach their destination on the outermost rings.
