ES2255377B1 - SYSTEM OF PARKING OF VEHICLES IN TWO HEIGHTS WITH AUTONOMY IN BOTH PLACES. - Google Patents

Abstract

Vehicle parking system in two heights with autonomy in both places. It has special application in surface car parks on public roads and online, thus increasing the number of car parks. It includes an independent modular structure (1) for each double parking position, provided with a lower platform (2) movable in its plane, and another upper platform (3) with vertical displacement. The lower platform (2) and the frame of the movable structure (1) move on guides (4) fixed transversely to the road. When the frame advances, the lower platform (2) remains motionless and thus the upper platform (3) can descend to the ground to pick up or unload a vehicle. To load or unload a vehicle from the lower platform (2), the entire superstructure exits and then backs up.

Description

Vehicle parking system in two heights with autonomy in both places.

Object of the invention

The present invention, as expressed by the set forth in this specification, refers to a system of parking of vehicles in two heights with autonomy in both seats, which allows parking or removal of vehicles with independence in both places, having special application in surface car parks on public roads and in parking lots online, glued to the sidewalk. These double parking height can be located in isolation or juxtaposed to along a parking area.

It is also applicable to other garages, adapting it to the needs, although in these cases its functionality is simpler, and may also opt for flat displacements are made longitudinally.

Background of the invention

There are currently different types of parking at a different height, with an elevator structure that allows to locate and remove vehicles in different car parks Radial

Description of the invention

In general, the parking system of vehicles in two heights, object of the present invention, is determined by an independent modular structure for each double parking post, which is located on the road, contiguous to the sidewalk or even having an entree on the area where these double car parks are installed, thus avoiding  unnecessarily protrudes the structure invading the road, that is, in order that it does not stand out more than a vehicle.

Each module is a robust rack parallelepiped that has two trays or platforms; a superior which is vertically scrollable and lower.

The frame is laterally movable with respect to of the lower platform that can thus remain fixed. This allows the loading and unloading of a vehicle from the upper floor, advancing the frame so you can lower the platform upper to rest on the ground.

The displacement of the frame with the platform  superior, or that of the entire structure, is done by having support wheels on rails or sliding guides located transversely on the road and preferably embedded in them so as not to pose an obstacle to the passage of vehicles along the band or lane adjacent to the parking lot.

The drive, forward and reverse of the mobile frame carrying or not the lower platform, as well as the lifting and lowering of the upper platform, is carried out with electrical, mechanical and / or hydraulic means belonging to conventional circuits

There are time control means of parking, as well as timers to enable charging and unloading of vehicles, as well as to recover the position Inoperative at the original site. There are also lights Indicators of free parking signaling and "complete" as well as hazard warning lights during loading and unloading maneuvers, etc.

To facilitate the understanding of characteristics of the invention and forming an integral part of this Descriptive report, accompanying some sheets of plans in whose figures, with an illustrative and non-limiting nature represented the following:

Brief description of the drawings

Figure 1.- It is a perspective view of a modular parking structure in two heights, occupied by two vehicles, in accordance with the invention.

Figure 2.- It is a schematic view, in plan, of a series of vehicles parked online, and a module of parking with the system proposed with the invention.

Description of the preferred embodiment

Referring to the numbering adopted in the figures, we can see how the parking system of vehicles in two heights, which the invention proposes, provides a movable structure (1) defined by the rolling frame or superstructure, parallelepipedically, with a platform lower (2) and upper (3). The superstructure or frame movable (1) does it on the lateral guides (4) anchored to the floor, with rolling bearing support boxes (5). The lower platform (2) moves over other guides (4) central, also being able to remain motionless and advance only the superstructure with the upper platform (3).

Reference (6) designates the vehicles of the parking.

With special reference to Figure 2, a vehicle (6 ') that is looking for parking, suppose that found in the parking module (1), of individual type and that in order not to stand out from the sidewalk (7), it includes a recess (8) in the parking area.

The vehicle (6 ') turns on its headlights emergency or intermittent, and even the driver can turn off the motor during the superstructure maneuver. If the load has been of producing at the top level, regardless of whether occupied or not the lower floor (2), it remains motionless and is the whole rolling structure (1) that comes out to occupy the position of load shown with dashed lines. The vehicle (6 ') advances when the upper platform (3) has descended fully supporting on the floor. Then ascend this upper platform and then roll back the rolling frame to acquire the position of parking at two heights, as shown in figure 1.

Following in this figure 2, if it is the platform bottom (2) the one that is free, the complete superstructure starts to exit until it stops in the loading position. One time that the vehicle has climbed into it and occupies a correct position, Go back to your starting position.

There is a barrier not reflected in the figures, which rises to allow access or exit of the vehicle, staying lowered to prevent vehicles from getting on or off with the moving platform.

A photoelectric cell controls the output of the vehicle and close the barrier.

Yes, when the barrier is lifted so that the vehicle, after a predetermined time, the photoelectric cell no car signal withdrawn, the platform returns to its position original but the barrier is lifted as proof of time exhausted, the light on, and in this case the inspector (this can happen for example when there are problems of boot, etc).

Indicator lights of correct position of the vehicle on the platform (green light inside indicates correct position, the brake must be applied parking and put the first speed). If it's the platform lower (2) the one that has been loaded, automatically returns to its parking position, after a preset time.

If the parking is on the upper floor, there are a time measured by a timer that is preset, so that the occupants get out of the vehicle and close it. Then the platform (3) rises and the superstructure moves back to the position original.

Once the measured reservation time is paid by the corresponding parking clock, if the vehicle in a predetermined time the light (11) of Notice of payment infringement or other inconvenience, to crane or to a inspector. This warning light would also come on if exceeded. Reserve time Returning inside it, the parking vehicle by operating the corresponding command. Yes If you arrive late, the debt must be paid to achieve remove the vehicle

References (9) and (10) designate lights of signaling (free or complete) and maneuver notices.

Claims (1)

1. Vehicle parking system in two heights with autonomy in both places, especially for in-line car parks in permitted areas of the roadway, characterized in that it is determined by an independent modular structure for each parking position, which allows parking or removing vehicles without a square preventing it from the other, defined by a parallelepipedic frame (1) that can be moved transversely on parallel guides (4) fixed transversely on the road, with a lower platform (2) that can be moved simultaneously with the frame or remain motionless during the movement of the latter, and another upper tray (3) movable vertically from an elevated position to place a vehicle in the second height, to a lower one in which it rests on the ground once the mobile structure (1) has been previously displaced without doing the lower platform (2); There are control lights (9, 10, 11) indicating full and free at one or both heights, as well as control of parking time paid, and maneuvering.
