[Industrial application fields]
The present invention relates to a vehicle stop device for managing entry / exit of a vehicle by a vehicle stop plate standing up and prone.
[0002]
[Prior art]
In unmanned parking lots that have come to be widely used in recent years, the car stop plate stands up when the vehicle enters the vehicle, and the car stop plate is prone to take out when the vehicle stop plate is paid in response to the parking fee being paid. Many types of car stoppers are used.
[0003]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
However, in this type of car stop device, there is a risk that the parking lot user may be injured by being pinched by a car stop plate that is driven from the standing state to the prone state when leaving the car.
In addition, the car stopper plate may enter into the concave portion of the bottom of the vehicle when it is raised, and when attempting to leave the vehicle in such a state, the car stopper plate is placed on the bottom of the vehicle. There is a possibility that it may be caught in the recess and not in a prone state. In other words, when a vehicle enters, it is normal for the passenger to get off the vehicle, whereas when trying to leave, the passenger may get on the vehicle at the time of fare adjustment or afterwards. The vehicle height of the vehicle is lower than when the vehicle stop plate is erected, so that the vehicle stop plate driven to the prone position is caught in the bottom recess of the vehicle. If the vehicle is moved for delivery without knowing such a state, the bottom of the vehicle, the vehicle stop plate, its drive mechanism, and the like may be damaged.

Moreover, in this vehicle stop apparatus 10, the vehicle stop plate 14 is curved downward from the rotary shaft 16 toward the tip when viewed in a vertical section extending in the loading / unloading direction. The vehicle stop plate 14 is driven by the driving means 12 from the prone position in FIG. 3b toward the standing position in FIG. 3a in response to the sensor detecting that the vehicle v has entered, but the vehicle bottom B is low. Is engaged with its bottom and stops. Since the bottom B of the vehicle body is usually uneven, the front end of the vehicle stopper plate 14 may enter the recess of the bottom of the vehicle body when the vehicle stopper plate 14 extends linearly. When the parking lot user intends to leave the parked vehicle V, he / she performs the delivery by adjusting the fee and setting the standing stop plate 14 in a prone state. When the vehicle height moves up and down according to the situation of people getting on and off the vehicle, and the vehicle height when the vehicle is going to go out is lower than when the vehicle stop plate is raised As described above, when the front end of the vehicle stop plate 14 is in the recess of the bottom part B of the vehicle body, the front end engages with the edge of the concave part of the bottom part of the vehicle body where the vehicle height is lowered, and the prone operation cannot be performed. Occurs. In such a state, if the vehicle V is to be discharged, the car stopper device 10 or the vehicle body bottom B may be damaged. In the vehicle stop device 14 according to the present invention, the vehicle stop plate 14 is curved as described above, and when the vehicle stop plate 14 is driven to stand up, the vehicle stop plate 14 may be engaged with the vehicle body bottom B. Even if there is a recess R at the bottom, the curved portion of the vehicle stop plate 14 in front of the front end is engaged with the vehicle body bottom B, and the front end is prevented from entering the recess R of the vehicle body bottom B. It is possible to avoid the above-mentioned problems that may occur when the film is not curved but is formed linearly.
