JP6765852B2 - Horizontal simultaneous fork parking and its entry / exit method - Google Patents

Description

The present invention relates to a horizontal simultaneous fork parking lot using a comb-shaped cage and a method of loading and unloading the fork parking lot.

Fork parking is a mechanical parking device that uses a comb-shaped cage for loading and unloading a car and a comb-shaped tray for loading and storing the vehicle on a storage shelf.
Such fork parking is disclosed in, for example, Patent Document 1.

Further, the simultaneous fork parking is a mechanical parking device constructed by simultaneously connecting at least two fork parking machines in the horizontal direction or the vertical direction. Of these, the mechanical parking devices constructed in parallel in the horizontal direction are hereinafter referred to as horizontal fork parking.
Such simultaneous fork parking is disclosed in, for example, Patent Document 2.

In the following explanation, the place where the car is put in and out is referred to as the "warehousing / delivery section". In addition, among the simultaneous fork parking, the building that has the entry / exit section is referred to as the "entrance / exit building", and the building that does not have the entry / exit section is referred to as the "separate building".

Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication No. 2011-106124 JP-A-7-293032

Fork parking uses a comb cage and a comb tray with teeth that are in different positions so that they do not interfere with each other at the same position.
