Description

[0001]
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a safety device for a parallel parking apparatus.
[0002]
[Prior art]
Many mechanical parking devices have been built as a means to solve the shortage of parking lots, but to meet the demands of building owners who want to store more cars under the restrictions on the shape and size of the site due to difficulty in obtaining land. Conventionally, a tandem parking apparatus as shown in FIG. 2 has been put into practical use.
[0003]
That is, as shown in FIG. 2, a front parking device 3 that suspends a plurality of cages 2 from an endless chain 1 and circulates by a drive device (not shown) is provided on the site 6 facing the road 5, In the back of the front parking device 3, a back parking device 4 is arranged in a column, and a pit 7 is formed below the parking devices 3 and 4, and a traverser 10 is provided in the pit 7. is there.
[0004]
This traverser 10 reciprocates between both parking devices 3 and 4 via a wheel 9 on a rail 8 laid in the longitudinal direction in the pit 7, 11 is a loading / unloading port, and 12 is attached to and detached from the cage 2. The pallet for vehicle loading provided freely is shown.
[0005]
By the way, in the case of such a tandem parking apparatus using a traverser, there is always a large opening on the floor surface. When the car is stored, the front part of the traverser 10 and the front part of the cage 2 remain open, so if the car goes too far, it will fall into this opening part, which is very dangerous.
[0006]
Therefore, as shown in FIG. 3, when the door 15 arranged in the middle is a door that opens to the left and right, a cover 16 is attached to the lower end of the door 15, and the door 15 is closed, the opening is automatically closed. A means to make it possible to remove is considered.
[0007]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
However, since the traverser 10 always passes through the intermediate portion, the guide rail 17 that supports the cover 16 can be installed only halfway, so that it is in a cantilevered state, so that a problem in strength remains. Further, the guide operation of the cover 16 is also unstable.
[0008]
The present invention has been made in view of the above points, and an object thereof is to provide a safety device having a support mechanism sufficient in strength.
[0009]
[Means for Solving the Problems]
The present invention relates to a parallel parking apparatus in which a plurality of parking apparatuses each having a cage having a detachable pallet are arranged in a series, and a traverser moves in a pit provided in a lower part of each parking apparatus. A vertically opening door with a plurality of panels connected between them is provided so as to be movable up and down, and when the vertically opening door is lowered, two panels of the plurality of panels overlap to cover a part of the pit. .
[0010]
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
In the present invention, the intermediate door itself is configured to be foldable, and a part thereof is used for the cover.
[0011]
【Example】
Hereinafter, an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.
1 is a front view showing an embodiment of the present invention, FIG. 4 is a side view of FIG. 1, and FIG. 5 is a plan view.
[0012]
In the figure, the same reference numerals as in FIGS. 2 and 3 denote the same components, but 20 is an intermediate door that partitions the front parking device 3 and the back parking device 4 and moves up and down in the vertical direction. The intermediate door 20 is composed of panels 21, 22, and 23. The panels 21, 22, and 23 are rotatably connected via rollers 20a and 20b. Rollers 21a and 23a are respectively provided in the intermediate portion.
[0013]
Reference numeral 30 is a guide rail for guiding the rollers 20a, 20b, 21a, and 23a of the intermediate door 20, and is erected on the left and right sides of the intermediate door 20, and 30a is a break of the guide rail provided at a position where the roller 20a can enter and exit. is there. Reference numeral 40 denotes a stopper for supporting the roller 20a.
[0014]
Next, operation | movement of this invention apparatus is demonstrated using FIG.
First, in the state of FIG. 6A in which the intermediate door 20 is open, the intermediate door 20 starts to descend from the state in which the traverser can pass freely, and the roller 21a passes the cut 30a of the guide rail 30 (FIG. 6). (B)) When the ground level L is reached, the state shown in FIG. 6 (c) is reached. When the descent continues further, the roller 20a is disengaged from the cut 30a of the guide rail 30, and FIGS. 6 (d) and 6 (e). ), And finally supported by the stopper 40 and stopped as shown in FIG.
[0015]
That is, the panel 21 and the panel 22 overlap each other in a folded state to close the opening. These panels are supported at both ends, and because of the double structure, there is no problem in strength. In short, the door may be a folded structure.
[0016]
【The invention's effect】
As described above, according to the present invention, since the pit is automatically covered in accordance with the opening / closing operation of the intermediate door, it is extremely safe and does not cause a problem in strength.
