Description

DESCRIPTION

Modular retractable vehicle

Object of the invention

The present invention relates to a modular retractable vehicle, belonging to the technical sector of civil engineering to improve mobility.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

Currently the provision of parking of vehicles in urban areas consisting almost exclusively of parking spaces for cars. In certain cities with a large population and circulatory density, parking areas for motorcycles and even bicycles are also provided, but there are no parking spaces for new vehicles that favor mobility such as scooters and the like.

The problem with this is that these vehicles, and also motorcycles and bicycles are easily subtractable.

This drawback is solved with the vehicle vans of the invention.

Description of the invention

The retractable modular car park of the invention has a configuration that allows the parking of any vehicle, especially of small current vehicles that favor sustainable mobility, with security and inviolability.

According to the invention, the motor vehicle trailer comprises:

- a cube (understood as such a hollow body with bottom and side walls susceptible to being buried and withstand the corresponding pressures) prefabricated, formally and dimensionally adequate to receive, at least, a vehicle (motorcycle, bicycle, scooter, etc.). - at least one lifting platform arranged inside said tank to carry said vehicle when it is parked in the vehicle park.

- a resistant cover (understood as such that is capable of resisting loads expected on its surface for normal use: in the case of a pedestrian area the weight of people who can pass or be on it, in the case of areas of roundabout the weight of the vehicles, with the corresponding safety coefficients) for covering the tank, and

- Operating controls for the lifting platform with simultaneous opening of the lid.

The platforms will be arranged in an adjoining manner, as many as the size of the cubeto to be used allows, which will have a fence for the construction sites and transverse crosspieces where the upper tops of the platforms will be supported, or any other similar constructive solution.

In this way it is possible to bury the bucket and lifting platform and the vehicle inserted in it (bicycle, scooter or any other similar vehicle moved by a person or motor), which by its size may be capable of entering the hole that remains in the platform once elevated, and which will remain underground once the lifting platform completes the downward movement, ensuring inviolability.

But it is also that the vehicle vans of the invention frees surface space, which is an additional advantage.

PREFERRED EMBODIMENT OF THE INVENTION

The retractable modular vehicle rack (1) of the invention comprises (see fig 1):

- a prefabricated cube (2), formally and dimensionally adapted to receive at least one vehicle (3),

- at least one lifting platform (4) disposed inside said tank (2),

- a resistant cap (5) for covering the basin (2), and

- controls (6) for actuating the lifting platform (4) with simultaneous opening of the lid (5).

Ideally the cube (2) is made of reinforced concrete or metal plates of sufficient strength, being more economical concrete.

Each lifting platform (4) has dimensions to accommodate a vehicle (3) individually, which allows to modulate the capacity of a car park by putting n identical vehicles (1) in one or several buckets (2), lowering costs and guaranteeing inviolability individually.

A very preferred embodiment of the invention comprises that the lid (5) is incorporated in the same elevable part of the structure (48) of the lifting platform (4), arranged at a sufficient height with respect to it to be pedestrian, since the same elevation of the platform implies the elevation of the cover without additional mechanisms.

The lifting platform (4) can for example be driven by a direct spindle (40) (that is, where the direct spindle (40) is vertical and acts directly against a threaded part (41) of the lifting platform (4) with guides (44) to achieve the verticality of both up and down movement, especially if the lifting thrust is displaced with respect to the center of the elevating part of the platform, Alternatively the guidance can be realized by means of a scissor or pantograph (42) as it is seen in fig 3.

To maintain the safety of people, ideally the lifting platform (4) has side locks (45) with equivalent height, at least one handrail, with the exception of the entrance area to it, where it has an access opening ( 46), in order to close the sides and avoid accidental drops to the tank (2).

In the most preferred embodiment, the basin (2) has a quadrangular prismatic shape and each lifting platform (4) also, the lifting platform (4) having side closures (4) on three of its sides, and the access opening (46). on the fourth side. The access opening (46) is ideally arranged on a smaller side of the lifting platform (4). As for the side closures (45) are preferably materialized in metal mesh, durable and economic materialization.

Furthermore, the possible provision has been made on each lifting platform (4) of a presence sensor (49) of the vehicle (on the inside of the roof, for example) to determine if there is any vehicle inside the passenger compartment (see fig 1).

As for the drive controls (6), they are preferably arranged outside the reach of the lifting platform (4) so that the user can not be trapped and are permanent (that is, in the absence of pressure on the control). stops it to avoid accidents). Said driving controls (6) are preferably arranged in a console (50).

Notwithstanding the foregoing, and since the described description corresponds only to limited examples of realization of the invention, it will be understood that within its essential nature multiple variations of detail, also protected, may be introduced, which may affect the shape, size or materials of manufacturing the assembly or its parts, without this implying any alteration of the invention as a whole, limited only by the claims that are provided in the following.
