Description

The present invention relates to a parallel parking apparatus for parking a car.

The flat parking lot is generally composed of a space for parking a car and a travel passage for driving the car, and this flat parking lot is widely used indoors and outdoors, underground, and the like. However, when using a relatively long space (refer to Fig. 7) called a "machiya" with a narrow frontage for a parking lot, a lot of space is taken up in the travel path, so it is possible to secure a sufficient number of parking lots. For drivers who are not able to drive and who are unskilled in driving, it is difficult to park and often causes accidents.

In order to solve this problem, according to Patent Document 1, a mounting table for mounting a vehicle in a parking lot is provided except for a space for one vehicle, and front, rear, left, and right along a rail provided on the lower surface of the mounting table. There is a flat parking lot to be moved to. Further, Patent Document 2 provides a parking lot apparatus that includes a mounting table that can move in the XY directions along a guide device provided on the bottom surface of the parking lot, and a device that controls the mounting table.

According to the parking lot described above, there is no need for an automobile travel path, and the parking space can be used effectively. However, when the automobile is entered and exited, the plurality of carriages are moved to enter and exit. Is required to be moved to the doorway and requires extra time and power, which is extremely inefficient and becomes a very troublesome problem when it is urgent. Furthermore, according to these known parking lots, rails and guide devices must be provided below the ground surface, and construction costs, production costs, and the like become extremely large. And because the rails and guide devices have a complicated structure, the number of parking spaces is small for the construction and production costs to be applied to a long flat parking lot with a narrow frontage. This is very inferior.

Slide nuts 32a and 33a are provided, and slide members 32b and 33b are provided on the other end side. The slide nuts 32 a and 33 a are attached to the screw shaft 31 and slide in the vertical direction as the screw shaft 31 rotates. The slide members 32b and 33b are provided on the mounting table 2 so as to be slidable in the vertical direction. Further, wheels 35 and 35 'are provided at the lower portion of the mounting table 2, and the wheels 35 and 35' are configured to move along the traveling rails 36 and 36 'extending in the lateral direction. And the slope board 6 is provided in the lower part of the mounting base 2, and when this mounting base 2 is located in the parking space 1, this slope board 6 is accommodated in the mounting base 2, and the mounting base 2 is set to the channel | path 5. When positioned, it protrudes from the mounting table 2.

When the automobile is parked, first, the control means 4 is operated to drive the motor 30 and rotate the screw shaft 31. As a result, the slide nuts 32a and 33a move closer to each other, the link members 32 and 33 rotate around the cross shaft 34, and the slide members 32b and 33b also approach each other. Along with this, the link members 32 and 33 are directed in the lateral direction, the mounting table 2 moves to the right, and is disposed in the travel path 5, and the control means 4 stops the motor 30 by a signal thereby. The mounting table 2 is provided with a motor 60 for a slope plate, and a screw shaft 62 for the slope plate is attached to the motor 60. The motor 60 and the screw shaft 62 are configured so that the slope plate 6 protrudes and descends along the short side portion of the mounting table 2. The mounting table 2 is provided with a limit switch 61 for controlling the slope plate motor 60, and the slide member 32 b is configured to operate the limit switch 61 when the mounting table 2 is disposed in the travel path 5. Accordingly, the slope plate motor 60 is rotationally driven and the slope plate 6 protrudes (the mechanism of the slope plate 6 will be described in detail later). And in this state, a motor vehicle is mounted on the mounting base 2, and is stopped by a vehicle stop. Thereafter, the motor 30 is rotated in the reverse direction by the control means 4 to move the mounting table 2 to the parking space 1. At this time, the slide member 32 b slides, the limit switch 61 is released, the slope plate motor 60 rotates in the reverse direction, and the slope plate 6 is stored in the mounting table 2.

The slope plate 6 includes a slope plate main body 6a, a holding body 6b, and a shaft member 6c. The slope plate main body 6a and the holding body 6b are rotatable by the shaft member 6c. As described above, when the slope plate 6 is projected, the slide nut 63 is moved by the rotation of the screw shaft 62 driven by the motor 60, and the shaft member 6 c is positioned at the end of the mounting table 2. As a result, the holding body 6b is held on the mounting table 2, and in this state, the slope plate body 6a hangs around the shaft member 6c to form the slope plate 6 for getting the vehicle on and off the mounting table 2.

Next, the lateral movement mechanism and the slope plate mechanism of the second embodiment will be described based on FIG. 5 which is a plan view showing the entire mounting table 2. A motor 300 is provided on the mounting table 2 (virtual line). A rotary shaft 301 extending in the vertical direction is attached to the motor 300, and the shaft 301 rotates as the motor 300 rotates. The rotating shaft 301 is rotatably supported by a support member 301 a provided on the mounting table 2, and spur gears 302 and 302 ′ are provided on both sides of the shaft 301. The spur gears 302 and 302 ′ are fitted to the rail chains 303 and 303 ′ extending in the lateral direction. The spur gears 302 and 302 ′ are rotated by the rotation of the rotating shaft 301, and the mounting table 2 is connected to the rail chains 303 and 302 ′. It is comprised so that it may drive | work a horizontal direction along 303 '. Furthermore, auxiliary wheels 304 and 304 ′ for supporting the mounting table 2 are provided at the lower part of the mounting table 2. The rotating shaft 301 is provided with a bevel gear 310, and this bevel gear 310 is for transmitting the rotation of the rotating shaft 301 to the slope plate screw shaft 62 via the transmission shaft 312. The transmission shaft 312 has bevel gears 311 and 313 on both sides, one bevel gear 311 is connected to the bevel gear 310 of the rotating shaft 301, and the other bevel gear 313 is an umbrella provided on the screw shaft 62. A gear 620 is connected. With this configuration, the transmission shaft 312 is rotated in synchronization with the rotation of the rotary shaft 301, the slope plate screw shaft 62 is rotated, and the slope plate nut 63 attached to the screw shaft 62 is moved. Therefore, the slope plate 6 can be protruded from the mounting table 2 by the rotational drive of the motor 300. Accordingly, the mounting table 2 can be moved by one motor 300 and the slope plate 6 can be projected.

FIG. 6 is a plan view showing an embodiment in which a step plate is provided for a driver and a passenger of an automobile to get on and off the mounting table. 6A shows a state where the slope plate and the step plate are stored on the mounting table, and FIG. 6B shows a state where the slope plate and the step plate appear from the mounting table. According to this embodiment, similarly to the above-described embodiment, by driving the motor 60 provided on the mounting table 2 (virtual line), the screw shaft 62 is rotated and the slope plate 6 for the automobile is mounted on the mounting table 2. Projects from the long side. In this embodiment, step plates 64 and 64 ′ are provided for the driver and passengers of the automobile to get on and off the mounting table, and are configured to protrude from the mounting table 2 by the motor 60.

The slide body 65 has a slide nut 65 a via an arm 65 b, and the slide nut 65 a is attached to the screw shaft 62. Then, the slide body 65 moves in the vertical direction by the movement of the slide nut 65a by the rotation of the motor 60. As shown in FIG. 6A, when the slide body 65 is positioned on one end side, the step plates 64 and 64 ′ are stored in the mounting table 2, and as shown in FIG. 6B, the slide body 65 is moved to the other end side. When positioned, the link members 65c and 65c ′ extend in the lateral direction, and the step plates 64 and 64 ′ project from the mounting table 2.

Further, the slide body 65 is provided with a space 651 extending in the vertical direction, and a link mounting member 650 that is slidable in the space 651 is provided. Since the arm 65b is pivotally supported by the slide body 65, only the shaft 65 is slid first by the movement of the arm 65b, and the link mounting member 650 does not move for a while with the stop in the space 651 as play, Thereafter, the link mounting member 650 is moved, whereby the link members 65c and 65c ′ are configured to project the step plates 64 and 64 ′ from the mounting table 2. The point is that by adjusting the length of the space 651, the timing of the appearance of the slope plate 6 for the automobile and the step plates 64, 64 'for the driver can be adjusted. Similarly to the above, the slope plate 6 for automobiles is composed of the slope plate body 6a, the holding body 6b, and the shaft member 6c, and the driver step plates 64 and 64 'are similarly provided with the step plate body 64a. A step plate for getting on and off the mounting table 2 can be formed by supporting the holding body 64b and hanging down the step plate main body 64a.

In the above embodiment, an example of a mechanism for moving the mounting table in a lateral direction along a rail laid on the ground via a screw shaft or a cross-link mechanism has been described. It is also possible to attach a tire or a wheel capable of rolling, and to directly drive the wheel shaft or tire to move the mounting table in the lateral direction. In this case, since there is no need to lay rails, rails or the like do not appear in the entrance passage 5 of the automobile, so the usability as a passage is good. Further, various deformation mechanisms such as a pulling rope type moving mechanism can be employed instead of the screw type moving mechanism.
