First, when the vehicle gets in from the entrance 16 or the front open space of the boarding area S, the vehicle is provided with a detector 14 in which a plurality of photoelectric tubes are attached to the entrance 16 or the front open space in the vertical direction. The detector 14 detects the height with the optical axis shielded when the vehicle passes, communicates with the control panel, displays the size of the vehicle height, and searches for a free space in the parking room X. The search starts from a place where the parking room X is close to the boarding point S, and when there is no suitable place, the search is continued by raising the candidate to a place that can be changed. When there is no change, a full vehicle display is displayed and a waiting for a leaving car is made. The outgoing vehicle may be in an empty state in which the traversing device 13 in the lifting space E is set to a vehicle height that matches the standby vehicle by the vertical movement of the elevator 9 or is a standard passenger car M specification. When the warehousing room is determined, a display appears on the operation panel, and the user presses the number to start the warehousing operation.

(Description of goods movement)
When the warehousing vehicle enters the open space in front of the entrance 16 of the parking tower 1, the detector 14 installed at the entrance 16 operates to detect the vehicle height of the warehousing vehicle. In the present embodiment, the detection will be described as being classified into three types of box vehicles H, passenger vehicles M, and sports vehicles L, but two types or four types are also within the technical scope of the present invention. If it is determined that the warehousing car is the box car H, the control panel searches for an empty room.

  For example, if the block D in FIG. 2 is designated, three types can be received in the block D, the upper stage is a box car H specification and the empty car (in the figure has been received), and the sports car L has been received in the middle stage. The passenger car M has been received, and the upper number is displayed. The box car H to be loaded enters the boarding point S, and the person goes out of the parking tower 1, confirms the number displayed on the operation panel, and presses the operation switch, thereby opening the door of the entrance 16 Is closed and the lift 2 is lifted with the box car H mounted thereon. When the lifting / lowering lift 2 stops at a position above the parking room X to be stored, the lifting / lowering lift 2 waits for the traversing tray 4 of the passenger car M specification to traverse to the lifting / lowering space E from the parking room X, starts to descend and goes to the boarding place S Stop at the floor.

  When the traversing tray 4 passes by the lowering of the lifting lift 2 and receives the box vehicle H, the lifting device 9 of the traversing device 13 descends so that the tray rail 6a is flush with the traversing device 13 of the parking room X. The floor height can be changed to a high 1900 mm. The elevator 9 is an electric link 11 type, but an air / hydraulic type may be adopted. The traversing device 13 traverses the traversing tray 4 and stores it in the parking room X, thereby completing the warehousing. Completion of warehousing can be accurately stored in the control panel by the detector 15 installed in the parking room X.

(Explanation of shipping operation)
Assuming that the outgoing car is the sports car L in the middle of FIG. 2, when the outgoing car is designated on the operation panel, the lifting tray 2 rises when the traversing tray 4 carrying the outgoing car traverses and traverses the lifting space E. Then, the vehicle passes by the traverse tray 4 and the unloading car is transferred from the tray fork 5 to the lift fork 3 to make the traverse tray 4 empty. At that time, when the upper row is other than the empty vehicle or the box vehicle H, the elevator 9 is lowered, the floor height is changed to the height of the passenger car M, the traversing tray 4 is traversed to the parking room X, and the quantity of incoming vehicles is Although it can be used for many passenger cars M, the upper parking space X is limited to the passenger car M or the sports car L, and the box car H exceeds the allowable range and becomes impossible. The warehousing process can be operated smoothly and quickly without waste.

  Although the description has been made in the range where the three blocks A, B, C, and D in the parking area can be received, the adjustment can be made for each unit, and even if it is divided into four or five units, the above operation can be performed. Depending on the scale of the parking tower 1, it can be employed in the same configuration from a large-scale large-capacity to a small-scale small-scale one, and the entire compartment can be used efficiently for the warehousing vehicle.
