Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Field of Industrial Application] The present invention relates to a storage device for a motor vehicle, and more particularly to a storage device for a motor vehicle that is devised to facilitate the movement of a motor vehicle between a garage and the road. It is something.

[Background of the invention]

In recent years, the number of automobiles used in households, offices, stores, factories, etc. has been steadily increasing, and the number of houses and other buildings has also been increasing.
These buildings are becoming increasingly crowded.

[Problem that the invention seeks to solve]

Under these circumstances, as land prices tend to rise while maintaining a high level, not only is there less and less space in garages to store cars next to these buildings, but there is also an increase in land prices. The roads facing these areas also tend to become narrower, and as a result, collisions between cars and structures are more likely to occur when cars are put into or taken out of garages, and great care must be taken to avoid such accidents. As a result, it is becoming increasingly difficult to move a car between a garage and the road, that is, to move a car in and out of a garage.

[Means for solving problems]

The present invention was invented in view of the above situation, and aims to provide a car storage device that allows cars to be easily put in and taken out even in narrow garages and roads. An installed track member, a trolley placed on the track member, a pedestal for mounting a car that is rotatably provided on one end of the trolley in a horizontal plane, and each One side edge is pivotally supported by both side edges of the pedestal, thereby being connected to both sides of the pedestal so as to be rotatable in the vertical direction, thereby providing a movement path between the pedestal and the road surface of the automobile. a first drive device that moves the cart along the track member; a second drive device that rotates the pedestal in a horizontal plane; third and fourth drive devices that rotate each separately, and the first to fourth

Hereinafter, the automobile storage device 1 configured as described above will be explained.
We will discuss the effects of

When the frame 4 of the automobile storage device 1 is stored in the garage G, each guide plate 45, 4
5' are each rotated upwardly by approximately 90 degrees with respect to the upper plate 40. When storing a car in the garage G, the car is stopped in front of the garage G, and then the control device 10 is operated to operate the drive device 5 to move the trolley 3 to the right side in FIG. Move it to the road side and pull out the frame 4 onto the road. At this time, if the road is curved and tilted with respect to the garage G, the drive device 6 is activated to rotate the pedestal 4 to a position suitable for placing the car on the pedestal 4. , then actuating one of the drives 7 and 8, for example drive 7,
The guide plate 45 is rotated in the counterclockwise direction indicated by the arrow cc as shown in FIG. 4, and one end of the guide plate 45 is grounded.

Next, drive the car and move the car to the guide plate 4.
5 on the upper plate 40 of the pedestal 4, the control device 10 is operated again to activate the drive device 7, and the guide plate 45 is rotated along the direction of arrow c in FIG. After rotating the frame 4 to a position forming an angle of approximately 90 degrees with respect to the upper plate 40, the drive device 6 is operated to correct the posture of the frame 4 with respect to the garage G and return it to the original position. Thereafter, the drive device 5 is operated again to move the trolley 3 to the left in FIG.
is stored in garage G. In this way, garage G
Cars are stored inside.

When carrying out the automobile from the garage G onto the road, as described above, move the trolley 3 to the right in FIG. is rotated downward to ground one end thereof, and then the vehicle is lowered from the mount 4 onto the road via this guide plate 45.

Through such operations, even if the garage or road is narrow, it is possible to easily move the car in and out of the garage.

〔Effect of the invention〕

As is clear from the above explanation, according to the present invention, even if the garage is narrow or the road facing the garage is narrow, it is possible to easily enter and exit the vehicle, and therefore, the vehicle can be easily entered and exited. Accidents in which the vehicle body comes into contact with a structure or the like and is damaged when entering the warehouse are also avoided.
