[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to improvement of a multi-story parking device, and more particularly to energy saving measures.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Generally, as a multi-story parking device, for example, as disclosed in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2-91363, parking shelves for storing vehicles are arranged in layers vertically on both sides of a hoistway in a parking tower. Is known to be composed
At the time of entry into the warehouse, the vehicle enters the elevator platform that moves up and down the hoistway together with the pallet, the elevator is raised to the side of a predetermined parking shelf, and the vehicle is stored together with the pallet on this parking shelf. Operation is performed in reverse. A drive device such as a drive motor for raising and lowering the lift table and a drive motor for moving the pallet laterally in and out of the parking shelves, and a controller for controlling the drive of the drive device are external (power At present.

[0003]

However, in the above-mentioned conventional multi-story parking device, since the power supply of the driving device and the controller is supplied from the outside (power company) as described above, the power cost for operation is secured. There must be. From the viewpoint of energy saving, it is preferable that the power cost can be replaced by a less expensive one. In addition, it cannot operate during a power outage.

On the other hand, in recent years, electric vehicles such as electric vehicles using a battery as a driving source have become widespread. If the electric vehicle can be charged during parking, it is not necessary to provide a separate charging time. It is convenient.

[0005] The present invention has been made in view of the above-mentioned point, and an object of the present invention is to achieve a significant reduction in costs and energy saving by effectively utilizing inexhaustible solar energy, as well as a power outage. It is to be able to operate even at times. In addition, there is a case where charging of an electric vehicle that is driven by a battery is efficiently performed.

[0006]

In order to achieve the above object, a solution of the present invention is that a plurality of parking units for storing an electric vehicle driven by a battery are provided in a parking tower. In a multi-story parking device that performs entry and exit of the electric vehicle under the control of the drive control unit, a solar power generation unit that converts light energy of the sun into electric energy is provided on an outer wall of the parking tower. Further, a power storage means for storing the converted electric energy is connected to the solar power generation means. Further, the electric storage means connected to said drive control means, to drive control the drive control means by the electrical energy, each stationed
Connected to the battery of an electric vehicle parked in the vehicle by connecting means
Subsequently, the battery is configured to be charged .

[0007]

With the above arrangement , in the present invention , the solar light energy is converted into electric energy by the solar power generation means provided on the outer wall of the parking tower, and the converted electric energy is stored in the power storage means. Then, the drive control means is driven and controlled by the electric energy stored in the power storage means, and the electric vehicle is moved in and out.

As described above, since inexhaustible solar energy is used, it is not necessary to supply power to drive control means such as a drive motor and a controller from the outside (an electric power company), and power consumption for operation is greatly reduced. Has been less expensive. In addition, since the electric energy is stored in the power storage means, the multi-story parking device operates regardless of the power failure.

Further , since the electric energy is supplied to the battery of the parked electric vehicle from the power storage means via the connecting means and charged, there is no need to provide a separate charging time, and the electric vehicle is efficiently charged. Well done.

DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1 shows a multi-story parking device A according to an embodiment of the present invention. In the figure, reference numeral 1 denotes a parking tower provided with a loading / unloading port (not shown) on the ground portion, and a hoistway 2 extending vertically is provided in the parking tower 1. On both sides, an electric vehicle as an electric vehicle driven by a battery
A plurality of parking units 3 for storing cars C (shown in FIG. 2)
3,... Are arranged in multiple layers in the vertical direction. And the lowermost end of the hoistway 2 is an entrance / exit section 4 following the entrance / exit port.
It has become.

Each of the parking sections 3 is provided with a parking shelf 5 supported by the parking tower 1, and two rails (not shown) are laid on the parking shelf 5 and are mounted on both rails. Is electric self
A rectangular pallet 6 on which a moving vehicle C is mounted is movably mounted, and the electric vehicle C is stored on each of the parking shelves 5 with the electric vehicle C mounted on the pallet 6.

In the hoistway 2, an electric automatic
An elevating device 7 for moving the car C up and down is provided.
The lifting platform 8 is suspended and supported by wire ropes 9, 9,.
Each of the wire ropes 9 is wound around pulleys 10, 10,... Provided at the upper end of the hoistway 2, and the other end is connected to a balance weight (not shown). Then, by driving a drive motor 12 installed in the uppermost machine room 11, the rotation torque is transmitted to each of the pulleys 10 so that each of the wire ropes 9 travels in the vertical direction in synchronization with the pulley 10, and Is moved up and down between the uppermost end and the lowermost end of the hoistway 2 to be moved to the side of a predetermined parking shelf 5. When the elevator 8 is moved to the side of the desired parking shelf 5, the pallet 6 is moved laterally by the rotation of a drive motor (not shown) to enter and exit the parking shelf 5. These loading and unloading operations are controlled by a controller 13 including a CPU and the like provided on the ground portion. Therefore, by the driving devices such as the driving motor 12 and the controller 13,
