Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION (Industrial Application Field) The present invention relates to a vertical circulation parking facility that can accommodate two types of vehicles of different heights, high and low.

(Prior Art and Problems) Recently, vehicles called high-roof vehicles, which are considerably higher than ordinary cars, have become popular. However, since the number of high-roof cars is much smaller than that of ordinary cars, in terms of utilization efficiency, parking facilities that can accommodate both high-roof cars and ordinary cars are preferable to parking facilities exclusively for high-roof cars.

For example, in a direct-circulation parking system with lower passenger entry, if a high cage for high-roof cars and a low cage for ordinary cars are mixed and hung at the minimum necessary pitch, the lowermost passenger entry Since the height position of the chassis of the cage that stops at the location differs between high cages and low cages, a boarding deck that can be tilted up and down is installed to allow vehicles to enter, and the platform of the cage that has reached the lowest point and the ground floor are connected to the ground floor for vehicles to enter. It must be possible to connect.

However, there is a difference in vehicle height of about 450 meters between a high roof car and a regular car, so this height can be compensated for by raising and lowering the vehicle.
In order to allow vehicles to enter both low and low cages, an entry deck that is the length of the long bone of a single vehicle is required, which is difficult to do in parking facilities where there is not much room in front of the entry/exit entrance. Not only is it completely impossible to implement, but the equipment cost is also quite high.

(Means for solving the problem) The vertical circulation parking equipment of the present invention is a mixture of two types of cages: one for high-roof vehicles (hereinafter referred to as high-roof vehicles) and one for ordinary vehicles (hereinafter referred to as low-vehicles). For all cages, make sure that the distance from the suspension member's cage support point to the chassis floor is the same, and that the cage support point of the cage located below is lower than the chassis of the cage located above it. It is characterized by being located.

(Function) The distance from the cage support point of the suspension member to the floor surface of the chassis is the same for both high and image vehicle cages, so if the vehicle is stopped at the lowest vehicle entry area, for example, the high and image vehicle cage The vehicle approach path of the chassis naturally becomes flush with the fixed entry floor, making it possible to enter and exit the garage.

(Example) The example shown in the figure will be explained, but for convenience of explanation, first.
3. The left and right in FIG. 4 are called "left" and "right," and the right and left in FIG. 2 are called "front" and "rear."

1 is a vertical circulation type parking facility for lower beam dolls installed in building 2, with upper and lower sprockets 3, 3', 4, and 4 placed at the front and rear, two each on the top and bottom, shifted to the left and right. ′, stretch the two endless chains 5 and 5′, and connect the upper sprocket 3.
・It circulates in the vertical direction by the driving source M connected between the parts 3' and 3'.

6 and 7 are the cage for high vehicle Wl and the cage for low vehicle W2,
A horizontal vehicle platform 6a, 7a, and a pair of front and rear gate-shaped cage frames 6b, 6b', 7b, 7b, with the lower ends of both left and right legs fixed to the front and rear sides of the vehicle platform and separated in the front and back direction as they move upward. '
and front and rear cage frames 6b and 6b' and 7b and 7b, respectively.
' Reinforcing connecting material 6C installed between the upper horizontal center part
・It is composed of 7C.

The cages for high and low vehicles are fixed to the endless chains 5 and 5', respectively, by means of hanging members 8 and 8', so that the distance from the cage support point to the floor of the chassis 6a and 7a (Figs. 1, 2, and 4) is (shown as H) are the same, so that the front cage frames 6b and 7b are
The right part of the rear cage frame 6b' and the left part of the rear cage frame 6b' and 7b' are pivotally mounted via short shafts (not numbered) protruding appropriately. In addition, as shown in FIG. 1, when the hanging members 8 and 8' are on the left and right vertical movement paths,
The hanging pitch P when the illustrators are adjacent to each other is smaller than the hanging pitch P2 when the high vehicle cages 6 and 6 illustrators are adjacent to each other and when the high vehicle cage 6 and the low vehicle cage 7 are adjacent to each other. The cages 6 and 7 adjacent to each other above and below are packed to the minimum necessary.

Incidentally, reference numeral 9 denotes an entry/exit entrance formed on the rear wall of the above-ground part of the building 2, which faces the vehicle entry area SP set at the lowest part of the royal circulation section of the cages 6 and 7.

Each of these cages 6 and 7 has a distance H from the cage support point by the hanging members 8 and 8' to the floor surface of the chassis 6a and 7a.
are the same, so when reaching the vehicle entrance area SP facing the entrance/exit 9, the floor surfaces of the chassis 6a and 7a (strictly speaking, the vehicle entrance road surface) are at the same height, and this height The entrance floor F of the entrance/exit 9 is set according to the position of the vehicle.

In FIG. 1, the low vehicle cage 7 is located at the vehicle entry area S.
When the vehicle reaches P and stops, the floor surface of the chassis 7a of the cage 7 becomes flush with the entry floor F, indicating a state in which the low vehicle W2 can enter or exit the garage.

From the state shown in Figure 1, the endless chains 5 and 5' circulate clockwise,
As shown in FIG. 4, the high vehicle cage 7 is located at the vehicle entry area s
When the vehicle reaches point P and stops, the floor surface of the chassis 6a of the cage 6 becomes flush with the entry floor F, allowing the high vehicle W1 to enter and exit the garage.

In addition to the embodiments described above, the present invention can also be modified as described below.

(1) In the above-mentioned embodiment, the vertical circulation type parking facility is described for a lower beam doll, but it can also be applied to an upper doll or a middle beam doll. For example, in the case of an upper-riding doll, the doll enters and exits from the upper entry floor F' at the front left side indicated by the two-dot chain line in FIG. In the case of intermediate beam dolls, entry and exit are carried out from the intermediate entry floor F'' shown by the two-dot chain line in FIG.

(2) In the above embodiment, the right parts of the front cage frames 6b and 7b and the left part of the rear cage frames 6b' and 7b' of the cages 6 and 7 for high and low vehicles are set at the center of the cage by the hanging members 8 and 8'. Since the cages are pivoted and suspended diagonally, each cage does not sway to the left or right when circulating or stopping.

Therefore, in the above-mentioned embodiment, a guide to prevent the cage from swinging was not provided, but in order to further stabilize the swinging of the cage, a guide to prevent the cage from swinging is provided as shown by the dotted chain line in FIG.
may be used together.

(Effect of the invention) In the present invention, there are two types of cages for high vehicles and low vehicles, and high vehicles and low vehicles can be stored without creating wasted space in the tower, and only cages for high vehicles are used. Compared to the case where cages are hung, the number of suspended cages is increased, making it possible to provide a parking facility with high parking efficiency. In addition, because the entrance floor height at the vehicle entry area is the same for entry and exit, there is no need for an expensive floor alignment device that takes up a large space at the entry/exit entrance, such as a sloped elevating entry deck. This is a relatively simple and inexpensive mechanism that is highly effective in terms of parking efficiency.
