Moreover, the parking apparatus which concerns on embodiment of this invention has the following effects by the structure.
A vehicle-side relay on an upper surface along one specific long side E of a pair of left and right long sides sandwiching a pair of left and right traveling surfaces extending in the front-rear direction of a substantially rectangular structure when the pallet on which the vehicle is mounted is viewed from above A terminal support structure 40 that can support the terminal 30, a terminal support structure 40, a guide member 50 that is aligned in the front-rear direction and forms a convex contour upward, and the charging cable 10 can be connected to the vehicle-side relay terminal 30. Since the power is relayed to the side relay terminal 30, when the vehicle travels on the pair of left and right traveling surfaces G and gets on and off the pallet, the guide member 50 guides the tire and the tire becomes the terminal support structure 30. Interference can be suppressed and electric power can be supplied to the vehicle on the running surface via the relay device 70, the vehicle-side relay terminal 30, and the charging cable 10.
In addition, since the guide shaft member 51 of the guide member 50 supports the guide wheel member 52 so that the guide wheel member 52 can be rotated with its axis aligned, the vehicle travels on the pair of left and right traveling surfaces G and gets on and off the pallet. In addition, the rotating guide wheel member 52 can guide the tire and prevent the tire from interfering with the terminal support structure 40, and the electric power can travel through the relay device 70, the vehicle-side relay terminal 30, and the charging cable 10. Power can be supplied to the vehicle on board.
Further, the horizontal distance H1 in the left-right direction from the specific long side E to the farthest location of the guide member 50 is larger than the horizontal distance H2 in the left-right direction from the specific long side to the farthest location of the vehicle-side relay terminal 30. Therefore, when the vehicle travels on the pair of left and right traveling surfaces G and gets on and off the pallet, the rotating guide wheel member 52 guides the tire and effectively suppresses the tire from interfering with the terminal support structure 40. it can.
In addition, since the specific space Q in which the control box 12 can be placed is provided in the terminal support structure 40, the control box 12 can be stably placed on the terminal support structure 40.
Moreover, since the standing member 42 is provided between the specific space Q in which the control box 12 can be placed and the specific long side E, the control box 12 placed in the specific space Q can be prevented from protruding from the specific long side E.
Further, since the vehicle-side relay terminal 30 can be placed in the specific space Q when the specific space Q in which the control box 12 can be placed is empty, it is possible to effectively suppress the tire from interfering with the terminal support structure 40.
Further, the horizontal distance H1 in the left-right direction from the specific long side E to the farthest location of the guide member 50 is the horizontal in the left-right direction from the specific long side E to the farthest location of the control box 12 placed in the specific space Q. Since the distance H3 is greater than the distance H3, when the vehicle travels on the pair of left and right traveling surfaces G and gets on and off the pallet, the rotating guide wheel member 52 guides the tire and the control box 12 places the tire in the specific space Q. Can be effectively suppressed.
In addition, when the specific space Q in which the control box 12 can be placed is empty, between the posture in which the vehicle-side relay terminal 30 can be placed in the specific space Q and the posture in which the surface that goes out of the specific space Q and connects the charging terminal 13 faces downward. Since the vehicle-side relay terminal 30 is not used, the vehicle-side relay terminal 30 can be placed in the specific space Q and out of the specific space Q when used.
Moreover, since the protrusion preventing member 60 having a predetermined height from the running surface G is disposed so as to extend along the long side, it is possible to suppress the charging cable disposed along the long side from protruding from the long side.
Further, since the pair of guide members 50 are arranged on the upper surface along the long side of the pallet main structure 20 so as to sandwich the specific space Q in the front-rear direction, the vehicle moves the pair of left and right traveling surfaces G in the front-rear direction. It is possible to suppress the guide member 50 from guiding the tire and interfering with the terminal support structure 40 when the vehicle travels on and off the pallet.
The pair of left and right vehicle-side relay terminals and the pair of left and right terminal support structures are along the long side of the pallet main structure so that the pallet main structure is point-symmetrical with respect to the approximate center. Since they are arranged on the upper surface, the pallet is turned 180 ° to perform the same function.
