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

FIG. 1 is a plan view showing a vehicle transport device constituting a parking device of the present invention and a part of a vehicle support section.

The vehicle transport device 1 includes a traveling passage 2 (not shown).
Travels on rails 5 arranged horizontally in
A plurality of vehicle support sections 3 are juxtaposed on both sides or one side of the traveling passage 2. The vehicle support section 3 is a parking room for storing a vehicle mounted and carried on the vehicle transport device 1.

In FIG. 1, reference numeral 7 denotes a bogie frame of the vehicle transporting apparatus 1. On the bogie frame 7, two conveyors 10a and 10b for laterally feeding a vehicle are arranged in parallel. The conveyors 10a and 10b are roller conveyors, of which 10a is a front wheel conveyor and 10b is a rear wheel conveyor. The vehicle is placed on the conveyor such that the longitudinal direction thereof coincides with the longitudinal direction of the bogie frame 7 (the traveling direction of the vehicle transport device), and the simultaneous rotation of both conveyors in the same direction causes the vehicle transport device to rotate. It is transported in a transverse direction perpendicular to the running direction.

In the figure, reference numeral 11 denotes a conveyor driving device which is connected to the two conveyors via a chain and rotates the conveyors 10a and 10b. In the drawings, the rear wheel conveyor 10b is configured to be wider than the front wheel conveyor 10a, so that vehicles of various sizes having different axle lengths can be mounted. . 13 are wheels for moving the bogie frame 7 along the rail 5;
Is a traveling drive device for driving the wheels 13.

In each of the vehicle support sections 3, a front wheel conveyor 16a and a rear wheel conveyor 16b are arranged in parallel so as to correspond to the front wheel conveyor 10a and the rear wheel conveyor 10b provided in the vehicle transfer device 1. When the vehicle transport device 1 stops at the vehicle support section side 3, the respective conveyors are connected.

Then, the conveyor 1 of the vehicle transport device 1
0a, 10b and the conveyor 16a of the vehicle support section 3,
16b, the conveyors rotate in the same direction, and the vehicle is transferred between the vehicle transport device 1 and the vehicle support section 3.

In the present invention, each of the vehicle support sections 3 includes:
No conveyor drive device is provided for rotating the conveyors 16a, 16b in the vehicle support section, and the respective conveyors 16a, 16b in the vehicle support section 3 use the driving force of the drive device provided in the vehicle transport device 1. It is supposed to rotate.

The mechanism of this point will be described first.
The power transmission device 2 having the configuration shown in FIG.
0 is provided so as to be movable in a lateral direction orthogonal to the traveling direction of the vehicle transport device 1.

The power transmission device 20 has a frame 2 whose overall length is shorter than the conveyors 10a and 10b of the vehicle transport device 1.
The frame 21 is mounted on the bogie frame 7 so as to be orthogonal to the longitudinal direction of the bogie frame 7, and is supported so as to be movable in a direction orthogonal to the longitudinal direction of the bogie frame 7. ing. The other end of a power cylinder 22 having one end fixed to the bogie frame 7 is connected to the frame 21,
By the operation of the power cylinder, the power cylinder can be moved in a lateral direction orthogonal to the traveling direction of the vehicle transport device.

Rollers 23, 23 are supported at both ends of the frame 21. The roller 23 is rotatably supported with the shaft 24 parallel to the traveling direction of the vehicle transport device 1. The driving device 2 is connected to each of the rollers 23 via a chain 25 as transmission means.
The motors 26 are connected to each other, and the respective rollers 23 can be rotated forward and backward by the motor 26. The rollers 23 are power transmission friction wheels 23 for transmitting the rotational driving force of the driving device 26 to the conveyors 16a and 16b of the vehicle support section 3.

On the other hand, rollers 30 are respectively attached to the vehicle support sections 3 so as to face the friction wheels 23 for power transmission. The roller 30 is a driven friction wheel that is brought into close contact with the power transmission friction wheel 23 by the lateral movement of the power transmission device 20 and that receives a rotational driving force from the friction wheel 23. , Provided in parallel with the rotating shaft 24 of the friction wheel 23 for power transmission.

The driven friction wheel 30 is mounted on each of the conveyors 16a, 16b provided in the vehicle support section 3.
When the driven friction wheel 30 is rotated by contact with the power transmission friction wheel 23, the conveyors 16a and 16b are also rotated accordingly.

The power transmission device 20 is configured such that its entire length (the length from the rollers at both ends to the rollers) is slightly shorter than the length of the conveyors 10a and 10b of the vehicle transport device 1. When the vehicle is transferred, the frame 21 moves in the direction of the vehicle support section 3 by the operation of the power cylinder 22, and the friction wheel 23 for power transmission is applied to the driven friction wheel 30 provided in the vehicle support section 3 by an appropriate pressure. Touch with. Then, the conveyors 10a and 10b of the vehicle transport device 1 are rotated by the operation of the conveyor driving device 11, and the power transmission friction wheel 23 is rotated by the operation of the driving device 26. Power transmission friction wheel 23
Is transmitted to the driven friction vehicle 30, whereby the conveyors 16a and 16b interlocked with the driven friction vehicle 30 rotate in the same direction as the rotation direction of the conveyors 10a and 10b of the vehicle transport device 1.

In order to change the transfer direction of the vehicle, the rotation directions of the conveyor drive device 11 of the vehicle transport device 1 and the drive device 26 of the power transmission friction wheel 23 may be reversed.

Since the transmission efficiency of the rotational force depends on the magnitude of the contact pressure between the friction wheel for power transmission 23 and the driven friction wheel 30, the driven friction of the friction wheel for power transmission 23 by the power cylinder 22 is determined. The transmission efficiency of the rotational force may be controlled by adjusting the pressing force toward the vehicle 30.

By the way, in the parking device having the above-described structure, the conveyor of each vehicle support section 3 is not connected to its own drive device, so that it rotates freely. Therefore, there is a risk that the vehicle will rotate due to vibration or the like during parking, and the vehicle mounted thereon will move and fall. Therefore, in order to prevent such a danger, the following vehicle movement prevention device is provided.

First, as shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, a ratchet wheel 32 is attached to a rotating shaft 31 of the driven friction wheel 30.
Is mounted and fixed so as to rotate integrally with the rotation shaft 31, and a stopper claw 33 is engaged with the ratchet wheel 32 from below.

In the illustrated embodiment, the stopper pawl 3
In No. 3, the engaging claw 35 portion is formed small and lightweight around the support shaft 34, and the head portion 36 is formed large and heavy. Therefore, the engagement claw 35 is always maintained in an engagement state with the ratchet wheel 32 by gravity, and prevents the ratchet wheel 32 from rotating clockwise in FIG. Alternatively, the engagement state with the ratchet wheel 32 may be maintained by, for example, urging the engagement claw 35 in the direction of the ratchet wheel 32 using a spring. In FIG. 4, 37 is
A bearing for supporting the rotating shaft 31 of the driven friction wheel 30;
Reference numeral 9 denotes a vehicle support section frame for supporting the conveyors 16a, 16b and the like of the vehicle support section 3.

In the above embodiment, the stopper claw 33 is engaged from below the ratchet wheel 32 to prevent the ratchet wheel 32 from rotating clockwise in FIG. Conveyor 16
a, 16b between the driven friction wheel 30 and the conveyor 16a,
The rotation direction of 16b is opposite to the rotation direction of 16b. For this reason, the driven friction wheel 30 in FIG. 3 is prevented from rotating clockwise by the ratchet mechanism,
As a result, the conveyors 16a and 16b of the vehicle support section 3 are prevented from rotating in the direction of the power transmission friction wheel 23.

On the other hand, the frame 2 of the power transmission device 20
At one end, a pusher 41 for pressing the head 36 of the stopper claw 33 to release the engagement between the engagement claw 35 and the ratchet wheel 32 is attached.

The pusher 41 moves in the direction of the driven friction wheel 30 integrally with the power transmission friction wheel 23, and when the power transmission friction wheel 23 contacts the driven friction wheel 30, the head 36 of the stopper claw 33 is moved. When pressed, the engagement is released. Conversely, the transfer of the vehicle is completed, and the movement of the power transmission device 20 causes the friction wheels 23 for power transmission and the driven friction wheels 3
When the contact with the ratchet wheel 32 is released, the stopper claw 33 re-engages with the ratchet wheel 32 due to the weight difference between the head 36 and the engagement claw 35 or the urging force of the spring as described above.

Further, a tire stopper (not shown) is provided on the inner side of the vehicle support section 3 to prevent a parked vehicle from moving away from the traveling path 2.

As described above, the movement of the parked vehicle is prevented by the ratchet mechanism provided on the driven friction vehicle 30 and the tire stopper provided on the back side of the vehicle support section 3, thereby preventing the vehicle from falling down. Danger can be avoided.

In the above embodiment, the above-described embodiment 1
As disclosed in Japanese Patent No. 64, the present invention has been described by taking as an example a parking device of a type in which a vehicle is mounted on a transport device in a direction in which the traveling direction of the vehicle transport device coincides with the longitudinal direction of the vehicle. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and it goes without saying that a parking device of a type in which the vehicle is mounted on the transport device such that the traveling direction of the vehicle transport device is orthogonal to the longitudinal direction of the vehicle may be used.
