BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a bogie mounted on a pallet for mounting and moving an automobile in various mechanical parking systems.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art In general, in a mechanical parking device installed in a parking lot that keeps a specific vehicle type such as a monthly exclusive parking lot or a parking lot for an apartment house, a pallet for automatic in-vehicle installation is dedicated for each user, In many cases, a pallet is used by defining a specific vehicle type for a specific pallet. In such a pallet car stop device, a wheel stop portion for abutting on a tire of a vehicle to determine a stop position of the vehicle is integrally fixed to a predetermined position of the pallet body. With such an integrated type, it is difficult to change the stop position after the pallet is manufactured. Since it is naturally anticipated that the vehicle may be changed, the wheel stopper is provided at the end of the pallet with a margin. However, if the car stop is provided at the end of the pallet, if the car has a large overhang, the car will protrude from the end, and conversely if the car stop is fixed at a position displaced from the end. In the case of a vehicle with a small overhang but a long overall length, the vehicle will now be protruded from the opposite end, and eventually it will be necessary to secure more front and rear space. Therefore, in the case of the integrated type, it is difficult to determine the stop position of the vehicle rationally using only the vehicle stop device. Measures are required.

[0003] On the other hand, in the prior art, a vehicle stop device in which a fixed position of a vehicle stop portion can be moved back and forth is disclosed in Japanese Utility Model Laid-Open Publication No.
No. 78856. In this device, four bolt holes are respectively formed at both ends of a brace portion fixed while being mounted on the bottom surface of the groove portion, while a set of bolt holes corresponding to the above bolt holes is formed in the groove portion on the pallet. A plurality of sets are provided in the front-rear direction, and a bolt hole on the pallet side is selected and bolted at four places, so that the vehicle stopping portion can be fixed at an appropriate front-rear position.

[0004]

However, in the above-mentioned conventional example, the fixing position of the vehicle stop is limited by the opening position of the bolt hole on the pallet side. For this reason, when there is no bolt hole at an appropriate front and rear position according to the vehicle type, there is a problem that a new bolt hole must be opened in the pallet.

[0005] In addition, since it is necessary to tighten the bolts at both ends of the stop, there is also a problem that it takes time to fix the stop and change the stop position.

The present invention has been made in view of the above points, and an object thereof is to fix a pallet to a pallet for arranging a specific type of vehicle at an arbitrary front and rear position with respect to the pallet. In addition, an object of the present invention is to prevent the fixing work from being troublesome.

[0007]

In order to achieve the above object, according to the present invention, the above-mentioned wheel stopper is temporarily fixed in the groove of the pallet in a state where the movement of one end is restricted, and then the tire is fixed. In response to the pushing, the car stop is fixed permanently so as not to move.

According to the first aspect of the present invention, an automobile tire mounted on a pallet which is removably installed on a pallet for automatic mounting on a vehicle having a pair of left and right grooves for mounting and guiding the tire of the automobile in the front-rear direction. It is a premise that the stop device is configured to restrict the movement of the vehicle and determine the stop position of the vehicle on the pallet.

[0009] Both ends of the pallet can be in contact with the side wall surfaces of the pallet in a state of being provided in at least one of the grooves, and the pallet can be provided in a substantially horizontal plane in a state of being provided in the groove. The pallet can be clamped at an arbitrary front and rear position with respect to a side stop of the pallet and a brace formed so that both ends are pressed against the side wall surfaces by rotating. When the wheel stop is pressed by the tire in the state, the wheel stop rotates in a substantially horizontal plane, and the end of the wheel stop moves so that both ends press against the side wall surfaces, respectively. Mounting means for regulating.

According to a second aspect of the present invention, in the first aspect of the present invention, it is possible to support the wheel stop so that a gap is formed between at least one end and the bottom surface of the groove. There is a configuration in which at least one of the ends moves downward when the tire is pushed, and both ends are pressed against the side wall surfaces of the groove.

[0011]

According to the first aspect of the present invention, the mounting means is mounted by clamping the pallet at an arbitrary front and rear position with respect to the side of the pallet. In a state where the mounting means is mounted on the pallet, the wheel stopper is attached to the pallet. It is laterally provided in a state where the movement of one end side is restricted in the groove. At this stage, the whole vehicle stop is temporarily fixed in the groove.

In this state, when the wheel stop is pressed by the tire, the movement of one end of the wheel stop is restricted. Therefore, the wheel stop rotates about the one end in a substantially horizontal plane. . Due to this horizontal rotation, both ends are changed from a state in which they are in contact with the side wall surface of the groove to a state in which they are in pressure contact with each other. Frictional force is generated. Due to the frictional force in the front-rear direction, the vehicle stop is permanently fixed in the groove so that the front-rear position cannot be displaced, and thus the movement of the tire can be restricted.

It is preferable to use the side wall surface and the bottom surface of the groove and the mounting means in order to support the vehicle stopping portion in a temporarily fixed state. For example, when both side walls have a tapered inclination such that the distance between them increases upward, the wheel stop may be supported by the both side walls.
In addition, when the above-mentioned inclination is provided or when the side wall surfaces are parallel to each other, the support may be provided by one side wall surface and the bottom surface. Furthermore, it may be supported in a cantilever state by the mounting means, or may be supported in a double-supported state by the mounting means and the side wall surface or the bottom surface on the facing surface side. In the case of the above-mentioned cantilever support, it is desirable that at least one end portion is in contact with the side wall surface in the temporarily fixed state.

According to the second aspect of the present invention, when the vehicle stopping portion receives the pressing of the tire, it is simultaneously pressed downward by the tire. At this time, since a gap is formed between at least one end of the wheel stop and the bottom surface of the groove, the wheel stop receives the above-mentioned pushing motion and at least the one end moves downward. Due to this downward movement, both ends are pressed against the side wall surfaces of the groove, respectively, and each end receives a pressing force from the side wall surface, and in addition to the front-rear frictional force caused by the horizontal rotation described above between the side wall surface and the upper and lower sides. Directional frictional forces are generated. As a result, the front and rear positions of the vehicle stopping portion are more strongly fixed in the groove by the frictional forces in both the front and rear direction and the vertical direction.

[0015]

Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. 4 and 5 show an embodiment of the present invention, in which a pallet 1 is formed by press-forming a steel plate, and a central raised portion 2 extending in the front-rear direction is provided at the left and right central portions, and a laterally protruding side portion 3 is provided at both left and right sides. Are formed with side protrusions 4 in the same direction. Grooves 5 for placing and guiding the tires T of the vehicle a at the time of loading and unloading are respectively formed between the central raised portion 2 and the left and right side raised portions 4. The left and right side wall surfaces 5a and 5b of each of the groove portions 5 are slightly tapered so that the distance between them becomes larger upward. Further, the edge 3a of the side portion 3 is bent downward.

As shown in FIGS. 1 to 3, both ends 6a and 6b of one side of the pallet 1 have side walls 5a of the groove 5 as shown in FIGS. , 5b so as to abut against the side wall surfaces 5a, 5b, respectively. Can be clamped at an arbitrary front-rear position with respect to the edge 3a of the side edge 3 and the wheel stopper 6 is clamped.
When the tire T is pressed, the car stop member 6 rotates in a horizontal plane, and both end portions 6a and 6b become the side wall surfaces 5a and 6b.
An attachment means 7 for restricting the movement of the one end portion 6a of the vehicle stop member 6 in the front-rear direction so as to be in pressure contact with the respective 5b. The mounting means 7 includes a support member 8 fixed to one end 6a of the vehicle stop member 6 and a clamp means 9 capable of fixing the support member 8 to the edge 3a of the pallet side portion 3. Have been.

As shown in FIG. 3, the stop member 6 is made of a steel material which is open downward and has a substantially U-shaped cross section. The end faces of both end portions 6a and 6b face the groove 5 as shown in FIG. One end 6a is inclined by the wall surfaces 5a and 5b, and is fixed by welding to an inner portion of the support member 8 located inside the pallet-side protruding portion 4 by welding. Wheel stop 6
The longest dimension including the above-mentioned inside portion is set to be larger than the interval between the upper and lower intermediate positions between the side wall surfaces 5a and 5b of the groove 5 and slightly smaller than the interval at the upper portion thereof. Both ends 6a and 6b of the car stop member 6 in the groove 5 in a natural state substantially parallel to the bottom surface 5c of the groove 5
Are in contact with the respective side wall surfaces 5a and 5b (one end 6a
When it is arranged laterally so as to abut on the side wall surface 5a via the inner part of the support member 8, the car stop member 6 is supported and fixed at the highest position in the groove 5.

The support member 8 is formed by bending a steel plate into a substantially inverted concave shape in conformity with the cross-sectional shape of the side raised portion 4 of the pallet 1. The upper and lower intermediate portions of the outer portion located outside the raised portion 4 and the wall surface 5a are formed so as to contact the edge portion 3a of the side portion 3 substantially in close contact with each other.

As shown in FIG. 2, the clamp means 9 includes a stopper 10 having a long vertical portion and a short horizontal portion connected in an L-shaped cross section, and a front and rear portion of the vertical portion of the stopper 10. 2
Two bolts 11 that are inserted in the bolt holes formed in the left and right directions, and each nut 1 that is screwed to each bolt 11
Consists of two. The vertical portion of the stopper 10 is configured such that a portion above the opening position of the bolt hole is applied to the back surface of the edge 3a of the side portion 3, and the horizontal dimension of the horizontal portion is the same as that of the edge 3a. It is set to be substantially the same as or slightly smaller than the thickness dimension. On the other hand, a vertically long bolt hole through which the bolt 11 is inserted is formed at two front and rear portions at a lower end portion of the outer portion of the support member 8. At this time, a predetermined vertical position of the stopper 10 with respect to the pallet 1 can be secured.

With the above configuration, when the edge 3a of the pallet side portion 3 is clamped by the clamp means 9, the support member 8 is attached to an arbitrary front and rear position of the pallet 1. More specifically, the outer portion of the support member 8 is moved to the side of the pallet in a state where the brace member 6 crosses the groove 5 at a substantially right angle and is substantially parallel to the bottom surface 5c of the groove 5. The stopper 3 of the clamping means 9 is applied to the front surface of the edge 3a while the stopper 10 of the clamp means 9 is applied to the front surface of the edge 3a. Then, the bolt 11 and the nut 1 are held in a state where the edge 3a is sandwiched between the outer portion of the support member 8 and the stopper 10.
2, the support member 8 is mounted.
The bolt 11 is located below the edge 3a.
It does not interfere with the edge 3a.

When the support member 8 is mounted on the pallet 1, the brace member 6 is provided in the groove 5 of the pallet 1 in a direction crossing the groove 5 at a substantially right angle.
a, 6b are supported by being in contact with the respective side wall surfaces 5a, 5b, and the rearward movement of the one end 6a side is restricted. In this state, the stop member 6 has not been fixed yet,
It is in a temporarily fixed state.

In this state, the vehicle stopping member 6 is mounted on the tire T
When the rearward push is received from the rear end, the rearward movement of the one end 6a is restricted, so that the wheel stopper member 6 moves in the horizontal plane such that the other end 6b side moves rearward about the one end 6a as a rotation center. Rotate. Due to this horizontal rotation, the car stop member 6 is stiffened in the groove 5, and both ends 6a and 6b are pressed against the side walls 5a and 5b of the groove 5, respectively, and the ends 6a and 6b
Receives a pressing force from the facing side wall surfaces 5a, 5b, and generates a frictional force in the front-rear direction with the side wall surfaces 5a, 5b. still,
In this embodiment, one end portion 6a of the vehicle stop member 6 comes into contact with and presses against the side wall surface 5a via the inner portion of the support member 8.

Further, when receiving the rearward pushing by the tire T, the vehicle stopping member 6 simultaneously receives the downward pushing from the tire T. At this time, both ends 6a and 6b of the brace member 6 are supported on both side wall surfaces 5a and 5b under substantially the same conditions, and the entire brace member 6 forms a gap with the bottom surface 5c of the groove 5. Therefore, the vehicle stopping member 6 moves downward substantially uniformly as a whole. By this downward movement, both ends 6
a, 6b are pressed against the side wall surfaces 5a, 5b of the groove 5, respectively, and the ends 6a, 6b receive the pressing force from the side wall surfaces 5a, 5b. Vertical frictional force is generated in addition to the longitudinal frictional force due to the movement. As a result, the front and rear positions of the vehicle stopping member 6 are firmly fixed in the groove 5 by the frictional forces in both the front and rear direction and the vertical direction, and thus the rearward movement of the tire T can be restricted. Further, in this embodiment, since the vehicle stopping member 6 comes into contact with the tire T at a high position in the groove 5, the tire T is compared with the conventional one which is fixed on the bottom surface 5c which is the lowest position of the groove 5. There is also an advantage that the backward movement of the vehicle can be effectively regulated.

On the other hand, when the type of the automobile a is changed and the stop position is changed, a pushing motion in a direction opposite to the pushing motion of the tire T is applied to the other end portion 6b of the car stop member 6 so as to change the both end portions 6b.
The pressure contact state between the side walls 5a, 5b of the side walls 5a, 5b is released, and the frictional force between the end portions 6a, 6b and the side wall surfaces 5a, 5b in the front-rear direction and the vertical direction is eliminated. Thus, the vehicle stop member 6 returns to the initial temporarily fixed state. Then, the bolt 11 and the nut 12 of the clamping means 9 are loosened, and the stopper 10
The clamping state of the edge 3a of the pallet side 3 by the and the outer part of the support member 8 is released. This allows
Since the support member 8 can be moved in the front-rear direction with respect to the pallet 1, the whole of the vehicle stop device A is moved to the front-rear position according to the new vehicle type, and a new fixing operation is performed again at the optimum front-rear position.

As described above, in the vehicle stop device A according to this embodiment, the vehicle stop member 6 is temporarily fixed in the groove 5 of the pallet 1 by tightening the two sets of bolts 11 and nuts 12, and the tire T of the vehicle a Since the rearward pressing movement and the downward pressing movement are used to permanently fix the above-mentioned wheel stopper member 6, the wheel stopper member 6 can be strongly fixed by an easy fixing operation. In addition, the temporary fixing can be performed by mounting the mounting means 7 by clamping it to an arbitrary front and rear position of the pallet side portion 3, so that the vehicle stopping member 6 can be fixed at an optimum front and rear position according to the type of vehicle.

In the above-described embodiment, the channel-shaped steel material is used for the vehicle stop member 6, but a square steel pipe or a round steel pipe may be used.

Further, in the above embodiment, the mounting means 7 is composed of the support member 8 and the clamp means 9, but the specific mode of the mounting means may be any suitable if it corresponds to the shape of the pallet. Good. For example, in the above-described embodiment, the mounting means is a side bulge 4 as a side 3 of the pallet 1.
May be provided so as to be clamped so as to be sandwiched from both inside and outside.

Further, in the above embodiment, the both sides 5a and 5b of the groove 5 are tapered so as to become larger toward the upper side. To support the vehicle, thereby preventing the
It is configured to secure the horizontal rotation of, but in the case where both side walls are parallel to each other and the distance between them is the same in the upper and lower sides, etc. Further, the other end may be supported by a corresponding side wall surface at a position higher than the one end. Further, in the case where the distance between the both side walls becomes larger downward, etc., the above-mentioned one end may be supported by the bottom of the groove instead of the mounting means. In these two cases, at least in the temporarily fixed state, the vehicle stop has an inclined posture in a vertical plane.

Further, in the above-described embodiment, the brace member 6 is laterally supported in the direction crossing the groove 5 at a substantially right angle, but the end on the side where horizontal movement is not restricted is restricted. It may be slightly inclined with respect to the groove in the horizontal plane so as to be located closer to the tire than the end.

Further, in the above-described embodiment, the brace member 6 is laterally supported in a state substantially parallel to the bottom surface 5c of the groove portion 5, but as described above, the brace portion is inclined in the vertical plane. Especially when both side walls are parallel to each other and the distance between them is the same at the top and bottom, etc. For this reason, it is preferable to incline, and in this case, it is necessary to restrict the downward movement of at least one end by the mounting means, the bottom surface of the groove, or the like.

Further, the mechanical parking device to which the vehicle stopping device according to the present invention is applied is not particularly limited as long as it is of a type using a pallet for automatic on-vehicle installation. For example, a vertical circulation type, an elevator type, a horizontal type. The present invention can be applied to various types of parking devices such as a circulation type and a multilayer circulation type.

[0032]

As described above, according to the first aspect of the present invention, it is impossible to move the vehicle using the horizontal pushing from the automobile tire in a state in which the vehicle stopper is temporarily fixed in the groove of the pallet. Since the main fixing is performed, the brace portion can be strongly fixed by an easy fixing operation, and the temporary fixing can be performed by clamping the mounting means to an arbitrary front and rear position on the side of the pallet. The part can be fixed at an optimal front-rear position according to the vehicle type.

According to the second aspect of the present invention, in addition to the horizontal pushing of the tire, the permanent fixing of the vehicle stopping portion is performed by using the downward pushing from the automobile tire. The wheel stopper can be fixed more strongly.
