Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2002-167995 JP 2007-170004 A

  FIGS. 13A and 13B are diagrams showing an operation state of a parking apparatus in which a large-sized gate having a width corresponding to a plurality of spans is arranged in the related art, FIG. 13A shows a gate closed state, and FIG. 13B shows a gate open. Each state is shown.

  Referring to FIG. 13A, a parking apparatus 800 according to the prior art has pallets 821, 822, and 823 arranged in a horizontal direction, and vehicles V1, V2, and V3 are mounted on each pallet. A gate 811 is installed at the front of the vehicles V1 to V3, and the gate 811 has a structure integrated with the pallets 821, 822, and 823. In addition, in the underground part below the pallets 821, 822 and 823, the pallets 831, 832 and 833 and the vehicles V4, V5 and V6 are mounted and stored on the lower pallets, respectively. It is possible.

  FIG. 13B shows the state of parking device 800 when pallet 832 stored in the lower part of pallet 822 is called. When the pallet 832 on which the vehicle V5 is placed is called, the gate 811 is slid and pushed down to the lower underground storage unit to be in an open state. At this time, not only passages a802 and a803 that can enter the inside of the parking device 800 are generated on both sides of the vehicle V5 mounted on the called pallet 832, but also a passage a801 between the vehicle V1 and the left side of the parking device. A passage a804 between the vehicle V3 and the right side of the parking device is generated. Therefore, the risk of third party intrusion from parts other than the pallet to be used is increased, and the parking device is operated without the user knowing that the third party has entered the parking device, resulting in an unexpected accident. There is a problem of fear.

  13A, if the pallet 833 stored in the basement on the right side of the parking device 800 is called from the state shown in FIG. 13A, when the gate 811 is opened, the passage a801 is connected to the vehicles V2 and V1 from the called pallet 833. It is formed at a position between two units. The path a801 formed in this way has a problem that the distance from the called pallet 833 is relatively far and the number of obstacles increases, so that the third party monitoring becomes more difficult and the risk of third party intrusion increases. .

  FIG. 14A and FIG. 14B are diagrams showing an operation state of an independent gate type parking apparatus in which an independent gate is arranged for each span in another prior art, FIG. 14A shows a gate closed state, and FIG. Each of the gate open states is shown.

  Referring to FIG. 14A, a parking apparatus 900 according to the prior art has pallets 921, 922, and 923 arranged side by side in the horizontal direction. Vehicles V1, V2, and V3 are mounted and stored on the pallets 921, 922, and 923, respectively. Here, gates 911, 912, and 913 are respectively installed corresponding to the respective pallets. Usually, the distance between adjacent gates is designed to be as small as possible for safety. Under the pallets 921, 922, and 923, the pallets 931, 932, and 933 and vehicles V4, V5, and V6 are mounted and stored on the lower pallets, respectively. Here, the line H is a line indicating the boundary between the ground and the underground.

  FIG. 14B is a diagram illustrating a state of the parking apparatus 900 in the related art when the pallet 932 stored in the lower stage of the pallet 922 is called. When the pallet 932 on which the vehicle V5 is placed is called, only the gate 912 is slid downward and stored in the basement to be in an open state. At this time, only the gate 912 corresponding to the called pallet 932 is opened. Therefore, the risk that a third party enters the parking device 900 is not great. However, the passage a902 formed between the vehicle V5 and the gate 911 and the passage a903 formed between the vehicle V5 and the gate 913 have a relatively narrow passage width. There is a problem that convenience when getting into the vehicle or leaving the parking device from the parking vehicle is poor. In addition, since only the gate 912 is opened, the opening portion is narrow, so that there is a problem that it is difficult to enter and exit the vehicle.

  Therefore, the present invention is intended to solve the problems associated with the prior art as described above, and its purpose is to reduce the risk of intrusion by a third party from a part away from the span to be used. It is in a place to secure a sufficient width as a passage when entering and leaving while keeping it down.

  According to an embodiment of the present invention, it comprises a plurality of vehicle storage units arranged side by side, a number of gates that is one more than the number of the plurality of vehicle storage units, and a control unit that controls opening and closing of the gates. The gates at both ends of the gate are respectively arranged to correspond to a part of the plurality of vehicle storage portions, and the gates other than the gates at the both ends of the gates are respectively the vehicles. Among the storage units, the control unit is disposed so as to straddle two vehicle storage units, and the control unit opens two adjacent gates corresponding to the vehicle storage unit for taking in and out the vehicle among the gates. A parking device is provided.

  In another preferred aspect, the parking device may be characterized in that the two adjacent gates to be opened are opened downward.

  In another preferred aspect, the parking device may be characterized in that the two adjacent gates to be opened are opened upward.

  In another preferred embodiment, each of the gates may be a parking device that is opened along one guide post.

  In another preferable aspect, the gate device other than the gates at both ends of the gate may have the same shape.

  According to the parking device according to the embodiment of the present invention, it is possible to secure a sufficient width as a passage at the time of entry / exit while suppressing the risk of intrusion by a third party from a part away from the span to be used. it can.

Note that in the drawings referred to in this embodiment, the same portions or portions having similar functions are denoted by the same reference numerals, and repetitive description thereof is omitted. In addition, the dimensional ratios of the drawings (the ratios between the components, the ratios in the vertical and horizontal height directions, etc.) may be different from the actual ratios for convenience of explanation, or some of the configurations may be omitted from the drawings.

<Background to Invention>
In order to solve the problems associated with the prior art as described above, the applicants have devised the following invention (Japanese Patent Application No. 2014-023325). That is, as shown in FIG. 11A and FIG. 11B, in order to secure a sufficient width as a passage at the time of entry / exit while suppressing the risk of third party intrusion from a part away from the span to be used, The parking device 700 includes an independent main gate for each, further includes a sub-gate between the main gates, and opens an adjacent sub-gate in conjunction with the opening of the main gate.

  FIG. 11A shows a closed state of a gate of a parking apparatus having an independent main gate for each span, further including a sub-gate between each main gate, and opening an adjacent sub-gate in conjunction with the opening of the main gate. It is. Referring to FIG. 11A, similarly to FIG. 14A, in this parking apparatus 700, vehicles V1 to V3 are arranged on pallets 721 to 723, respectively, and vehicles V4 to V6 are arranged on pallets 731 to 733, respectively. Yes. On the other hand, unlike FIG. 14A, parking device 700 has sub-gate 714 disposed between main gate 711 and main gate 712, and sub-gate 715 disposed between main gate 712 and main gate 713. .

  FIG. 11B is a diagram showing a state when the parking device 700 calls the pallet 732 stored in the lower stage of the pallet 722. Referring to FIG. 11B, it can be seen that a passage a702 is formed between the vehicle V5 mounted on the called pallet 732 and the main gate 711 in the closed state. It can also be seen that a passage a703 is formed between the vehicle V5 and the closed main gate 713. Here, it is relatively easy to monitor the intrusion of a third party while the user operates the control panel outside the parking device to perform the raising and lowering of the pallet and the opening operation of the gate. When the vehicle is inside the parking apparatus, the ease of monitoring whether or not a third party has entered the invasion path is a particular problem. Then, in the parking device 700, it is necessary to monitor the passages a702 and a703 in FIG. 11B. On the other hand, the passages a801 and a804 in FIG. 13B are located at the position where the vehicle V1 or V3 is sandwiched from the called pallet 832, and there is one vehicle that becomes an obstacle for monitoring, and the distance is also equal to one vehicle. Since it is away, it is difficult to monitor that a third party has entered the parking device or to confirm that a third party is not inside the parking device. Therefore, a parking device that includes an independent main gate for each span, further includes a sub-gate between the main gates, and opens an adjacent sub-gate in conjunction with the opening of the main gate is similar to the prior art shown in FIG. 13B. Compared with the case of such a large gate type parking apparatus, monitoring becomes easier.

  14B, the path a702 formed on the left side of the vehicle V5 in FIG. 11B is from the vehicle V5 to the end of the pallet 721 on the pallet 732 side. 14B, only the width from the vehicle V5 to the vicinity of the middle between the pallet 921 and the pallet 932 is formed. Accordingly, the passage a702 has a wider width than the passage a902 formed in the independent gate type parking apparatus according to the prior art, so that the convenience when the user enters and leaves the parking apparatus is high. In addition, since the frontage during entry / exit can be secured widely even when entering / exiting the vehicle, handling of the vehicle is facilitated as compared with the independent gate type parking apparatus according to the prior art.

  However, in a parking device that has an independent main gate for each span, and further has a sub-gate between each main gate, and opens an adjacent sub-gate in conjunction with the opening of the main gate, a power control element such as a motor is installed in the sub-gate. In the case where the main gate is not provided, only the main gate is provided with a power control element such as a motor. However, in this case, in order to link the opening of the subgate to the opening of the main gate, parts such as arms 751 and 752, an arm receiving portion 762, and a weight (weight) 790 are used as shown in FIGS. 12A and 12B. There is a disadvantage that it increases. FIG. 12A is a parking device including a main gate and a sub-gate, and shows a closed state of the parking device that opens the sub-gate in conjunction with the opening of the main gate, and FIG. 12B is a diagram showing an open state of the parking device. is there. Referring to FIGS. 12A and 12B, weight 790 is essential. Therefore, even when a power control device such as a motor is not provided in the sub-gate, the weight 790 is necessary, and the weight 790 is increased as compared with the present embodiment described later.

  Therefore, the inventor aims to secure a sufficient width as a passage at the time of entry and exit while suppressing the risk of third party intrusion from a part away from the span to be used without causing the above disadvantages. In order to achieve the above, the present invention has been considered.

<First Embodiment>
FIG. 1 is a schematic configuration diagram of a parking apparatus 100 according to the first embodiment of the present invention. The parking device 100 can park three vehicles in the horizontal direction, and three pallets for mounting and storing the vehicles are arranged in the horizontal direction. A total of four gates, one more than the number of pallets, are arranged side by side. Of the four gates, two gates at both ends are respectively arranged so as to correspond to a part of the pallets at both ends, and the remaining two gates are respectively arranged so as to straddle the two pallets. . In the parking device 100 of FIG. 1, it is assumed that three vehicles are parked in the horizontal direction. However, if n vehicles are parked in the horizontal direction, the number of pallets is n, and the gate The number of is (n + 1).

  Referring to FIG. 1, pallets 121, 122, and 123 are arranged on a line H that indicates the boundary between the ground and underground, and vehicles V1, V2, and V3 are mounted on each pallet. The parking device 100 has an underground pit, and pallets 131, 132, and 133 are disposed below the pallets 121, 122, and 123. Vehicles V4, V5, and V6 are mounted and stored on the pallets 131, 132, and 133, respectively. Thus, the parking device 100 has a configuration in which three devices having two pallets that can be moved up and down in the vertical direction are arranged side by side.

  Each vehicle parks the front portion of the vehicle in the front direction of the drawing, and the front direction of the drawing is the front portion of the parking device 100, and the vehicle is moved into and out of the parking device 100 from the front portion of the parking device. On the front surface of the pallet 121, a part of the gate 113 and the gate 111 is arranged. A part of the gate 111 and a part of the gate 112 are arranged on the front surface of the pallet 122. A part of the gate 112 and the pallet 114 are arranged on the front surface of the pallet 123. Here, the broken lines C1, C2, and C3 are lines that pass through the centers of the pallets 121, 122, and 123, respectively. In this embodiment, the size of each gate is determined so that C1, C2, and C3 pass between the gates. That is, the gate 111 and the gate 112 have the same shape. Each gate can be independently operated by an independent power control element (motor, transmission element, sensor, etc.). The guides G1 to G4 are columns and serve as guides that guide the raising and lowering of the gates 113, 111, 112, and 114. In FIG. 1, a part of the lower side of each gate is in the underground part and the other part is exposed to the ground, and this state is a state in which the gate is closed.

  The parking apparatus 100 includes an operation panel for a user to operate the parking apparatus, and the operation panel is installed outside the parking apparatus 100. Furthermore, a control panel for controlling the driving of each pallet and each gate of the parking device 100 is provided.

  FIG. 2 is a schematic configuration diagram of the parking apparatus 100 according to the first embodiment of the present invention, and shows a state when the pallet 132 is called and the gates 111 and 112 are slid to the underground part to be opened. Yes. Referring to FIG. 2, it can be seen that a passage A102 is formed between the vehicle V5 mounted on the called pallet 132 and the gate 113 in the closed state. It can also be seen that a passage A103 is formed between the vehicle V5 and the closed gate 114.

  Here, referring to the large-gate type parking device according to the prior art shown in FIG. 13B, the passages that can enter the parking device 800 when the pallet 832 is called in FIG. 13B are passages a801, a802, a803, and There are four locations a804. Then, the passages a801 and a804 in FIG. 13B are located at the position where the vehicle V1 or V3 is sandwiched from the called pallet 832, and there is one vehicle that becomes an obstacle for monitoring, and the distance is also equal to one vehicle. Since it is away, it is difficult to monitor that a third party has entered the parking device or to confirm that a third party is not inside the parking device.

  On the other hand, referring to FIG. 2, in the parking device 100 according to the first embodiment, the passages corresponding to the passages a801 and a804 in FIG. 13B are not formed. Therefore, monitoring becomes easier as compared with the case of the large-gate type parking apparatus according to the prior art shown in FIG. 13B.

  14B, the passage A102 formed on the left side of the vehicle V5 in FIG. 2 extends from the vehicle V5 to the end of the pallet 121 on the pallet 132 side. 14B, only the width from the vehicle V5 to the vicinity of the middle between the pallet 921 and the pallet 932 is formed in FIG. 14B. Therefore, the passage A102 formed in the first embodiment is wider than the passage a902 formed in the independent gate type parking device according to the prior art, so that it is convenient for the user to enter and exit the parking device. High nature. In addition, since the frontage during entry / exit can be secured widely even when entering / exiting the vehicle, handling of the vehicle is facilitated as compared with the independent gate type parking apparatus according to the prior art.

  As described above, the parking apparatus 100 according to the first embodiment secures a sufficient width as a passage at the time of entry and exit while suppressing the risk of intrusion by a third party from a part away from the span to be used. There is an effect that can be.

  In the present embodiment, the guides corresponding to the gates 111 to 114 are one guide G2, G3, G1, and G4, respectively, and use a support column. Therefore, it is not necessary to provide a support column having a guide function separately. For example, the gate corresponding to the guide G3 is the gate 112. As described later, the gates may be opened simultaneously by interlocking the gates 111 and 112, but may be opened separately one by one. Therefore, for example, when a user forgets something to V2 and returns to take it, it is not necessary to open both the gate 111 and the gate 112, and only the gate 112 may be opened. When only the gate 112 is opened, power consumption associated with opening the gate can be reduced as compared with the case where the gate 111 and the gate 112 are opened.

  FIG. 3 is a schematic configuration diagram of the parking apparatus 100 according to the first embodiment of the present invention, in which the gates 111 and 112 are slid upward to be in an open state. Thus, even if the gates 111 and 112 are slid upward to be in an open state, the formed passages A102 and A103 are the same as in the case of FIG. Therefore, even in this case, there is an effect that it is possible to secure a sufficient width as a passage at the time of entry and exit while suppressing the risk of intrusion by a third party from a part away from the span to be used.

[Control configuration]
FIG. 4 is a block diagram showing a schematic system configuration of the parking apparatus 100 according to the first embodiment of the present invention. As shown in FIG. 4, the system for controlling the parking device 100 according to the first embodiment includes an operation unit 11, a control unit 12, a pallet moving mechanism 13, and a gate opening / closing mechanism 14, each of which is mutually connected via a network 15. And a configuration connected to be communicable. The network 15 may be a wired line or a wireless line, as long as the control unit 12 is connected to the operation unit 11, the pallet moving mechanism 13 and the gate opening / closing mechanism 14 via the network 15 so as to communicate with each other. The operation unit 11, the pallet moving mechanism 13, and the gate opening / closing mechanism 14 are not necessarily connected to each other so as to communicate with each other.

  The pallet moving mechanism 13 corresponds to the pallets 121 to 123 and pallets 131 to 133 shown in FIG. 1 and a plurality of drive components that move each pallet. The gate opening / closing mechanism 14 corresponds to a plurality of driving components for opening and closing each gate in the gates 111 to 114 shown in FIG. The operation unit 11 and the control unit 12 correspond to an operation panel and a control panel provided in the parking device 100, respectively. When the user selects a pallet to be called by operating the operation panel, a signal output from the operation unit 11 is transmitted to the control unit 12. The control unit 12 transmits a signal for raising and lowering the pallet to the pallet moving mechanism 13, and further transmits a signal for opening the gate to the gate opening / closing mechanism 14. Specifically, when the user calls the pallet 132 and issues V5, the pallet 132 is raised and the gate 111 and the gate 112 corresponding to the pallet 132 are opened. In the present embodiment, the gate 111 and the gate 112 are simultaneously opened in conjunction with each other, but there may be a time difference between the two being opened. Here, the “corresponding gate” means a gate arranged on the front surface of the pallet, and even if a part of the gate is arranged on the front surface of the pallet, it corresponds to the “corresponding gate”. Referring to FIG. 1, the gate 111 is arranged so as to straddle the pallet 121 and the pallet 122. Therefore, the gate 111 is a gate corresponding to both the pallet 121 and the pallet 122. When the pallet 131 or the pallet 132 is called, the gate 111 is a gate corresponding to the pallet 131 or the pallet 132 as well.

  Such a control configuration is the same as the basic control method in the conventional independent gate system. In the case of the conventional independent gate system, the pallet and the gate have a one-to-one correspondence, whereas in the present embodiment, there are two gates for the pallet 1. However, since the gate corresponding to each pallet is determined in advance, the program may be made as such.

Second Embodiment
In the present embodiment, as shown in FIGS. 5 to 7, unlike the first embodiment, the shape of the gate is different. That is, in the first embodiment, each gate is arranged so that the lines C1 to C3 passing through the center of each pallet enter the gap between the gates, whereas in this embodiment, the center of each pallet is set to the center. Each gate is arranged in front of the passing lines C1 to C3. Specifically, a gate 213 is disposed in front of C1, a gate 211 is disposed in front of C2, and a gate 214 is disposed in front of C3. Therefore, in this embodiment, the gate 211 is larger than the gate 212. However, the point that the gate 211 and the gate 212 are arranged so as to straddle two pallets is the same as in the first embodiment. In FIG. 6 showing that the gate is opened when the gate is stored underground, and in FIG. 7 showing that the gate is opened when the gate is raised, the passages of the passages A202 and A203 are both shown. And a width from the vehicle V5 to the end of the pallet 221 on the pallet 232 side. Therefore, also in the present embodiment, it is possible to secure a sufficient width as a passage at the time of entry / exit while suppressing the risk of intrusion of a third party from a part away from the span to be used.

<Third Embodiment>
In this embodiment, as shown in FIGS. 8 to 10, unlike the first embodiment and the second embodiment, the shape of the gate is the same. That is, the gates 311, 312, 313, and 314 have the same shape. Even in this embodiment, the point that a sufficient width can be secured as a passage at the time of entry / exit while suppressing the intrusion risk of a third party from a part away from the span to be used is the first embodiment and This is the same as in the second embodiment. In this embodiment, since the gates at both ends and the other gates have the same shape, the gate can be easily procured.
