Description

[Detailed description of the invention] (Industrial application field) The present invention relates to a vertical circulation parking facility.

(Prior art) As a vertical circulation parking system, a plurality of pallets on which vehicles are placed are supported by chains that are suspended from sprockets arranged above and below, and brackets provided at intervals around the chains. It is known that parking devices are arranged in tandem in the direction of vehicle entry and exit (for example, Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 1983
(Refer to Publication No.-206576).

The above-mentioned parking facility is an upper entry system in which vehicles are parked underground with an entrance on the ground.For parking devices located at the back when viewed from the entrance, the parking equipment is located on the front side (on the entrance/exit side). Vehicles are moved in and out of the parking lot via the pallets of the parking device located there. Further, at the entry/exit position of each parking device corresponding to the entry/exit entrance, a platform for the driver to get on and off is provided on both sides of the pallet stop position so as to be movable up and down.

(Problem to be Solved by the Invention) By the way, when the vehicle is moved forward and parked on the pallet of the parking device, the vehicle must be moved backwards when leaving the parking lot. However, as described above, when the parking devices are arranged in tandem, It becomes difficult to take the vehicle out of the warehouse.

That is, in a vertical circulation parking system, in order to save as much space as possible for parking, the barrette is usually designed with a minimum margin relative to the width of the vehicle. Therefore, when parking devices are arranged in tandem, when exiting from the parking device at the back of the entrance/exit, the vehicle must pass in reverse over the narrow pallet of the parking device on the near side, making it difficult to drive the vehicle. It becomes difficult.

The same applies to the case where the vehicle enters the parking lot while moving backwards into the parking device at the back. Of course, if each pallet were made wider, this problem would not arise, but this would not meet the requirement of minimizing the space required for the parking facility.

That is, an object of the present invention is to enable vehicles to be easily entered and exited without particularly increasing the space required for the parking equipment in an arrangement in which the above-mentioned parking devices are arranged in tandem.

(Means for Solving the Problems) In order to solve such problems, the present invention provides a deck for vehicles that can support the vehicle even if it protrudes from the pallet when entering or exiting the warehouse, and the deck is used for parking the vehicle. This allows the device to be connected to a pallet as needed at the loading/unloading position of the device.

In other words, this means that a plurality of parking devices, each consisting of a chain suspended from sprockets placed above and below the chain and a pallet on which a vehicle is placed supported by each bracket provided at intervals on the chain, are used for entering the vehicle. Vertical circulation, which is arranged in a column in the exit direction, and allows vehicles to enter and exit the parking device located at the back of the parking device from one entry/exit entrance via the pallet of the parking device located on the entrance/exit side. type parking equipment, which has a connection position that is connected substantially flush with a pallet that has stopped moving at an entry/exit position to allow a vehicle to protrude from the pallet, and a connection position that allows the pallet to circulate. The present invention is characterized in that it is equipped with a moving deck for vehicles that can be moved to and from a retracted position.

(Function) In the above-mentioned vertical circulation type parking facility, the pallets are circulated with the movable deck for vehicles set as a retreat position. and,
When loading and unloading, the movable deck is moved to the connection position to connect to the pallet that is stopped at the loading/unloading position of the parking device. As a result, even if the tires of the vehicle protrude from the pallet, the moving deck supports them and prevents the vehicle from falling off the pallet.

(Effects of the Invention) Therefore, according to the present invention, there is provided a mobile deck for a vehicle that is movable between a connection position where it is connected to a pallet stopped at a loading/unloading position and a retreat position where the pallet is allowed to circulate. Because of the provision of a parking lot, even if the tire protrudes from the pallet when a vehicle enters or leaves the warehouse, it can be supported by the mobile deck, so the pallet only needs to have the minimum width necessary for parking. , it becomes possible to easily enter and exit vehicles without increasing the space required for parking equipment.

(Example) Embodiments of the present invention will be described below based on the drawings.

The vertical circulation type parking facility shown in Fig. 1 is an upper entry type, and in the figure, 1 is an underground parking space formed under a building 2, and there is one entrance 3 on the first floor of the building 2. is provided. In the parking space 1, two parking devices 4 and 5 are arranged in tandem in the direction in which the vehicle W enters and exits the garage, on the front side and the back side of the entrance 3. That is, in this parking facility, the entrance and exit of the vehicle W is carried out through the entrance and exit 3 for the parking device 4 on the front side.
For the parking device 5 on the back side, parking is performed directly from the parking device 5 on the back side via a pallet of the parking device 4 on the front side, which will be described later.

The above-mentioned two parking devices 4.5 have a chain 8 suspended from sprockets 6.7 arranged above and below, as shown in FIG. The pallets 10 to be placed thereon are each pivotably supported. In this case, the pallet 10 is at the highest position where the vehicle W enters and exits the warehouse, that is, at the entry and exit position, the number of people is gJ10.
It is at the same height as the road surface in 3. and,
As shown in FIG. 2, this loading/unloading position is provided with a moving deck 11 for vehicles and a relay deck 12.

That is, the movable deck 11 is for supporting the tires of the vehicle W that protrude from the pallet 10 when the vehicle W enters and exits the parking lot, and is provided on both sides of the pallet 10 at the entry and exit position of each parking device 4.5. There are a pair of each,
It is provided movably between a connection position to the pallet 10 and a retracted position. On the other hand, the relay deck 12 is
This is for moving the vehicle W between the two parking devices 4 and 5, and is fixedly provided between the two parking devices 4 and 5.

To explain the moving means of the mobile deck 11, first, the entry/exit position is located at the front side and back side of each parking device 4.5 when viewed from the entrance 3, and is perpendicular to the entrance/exit direction of the vehicle W. Horizontal guide rail 1 with a U-shaped cross section extending in the horizontal direction
3 are provided respectively. Further, as shown in FIG. 3, vertical guide rails 14 each having a U-shaped cross section are erected from both ends of the horizontal guide rail 13.

On the other hand, the movable deck 11 is provided with a horizontal guide roller 15 that is removably engaged with the horizontal guide rail 13, and a vertical guide roller 16 that is removably engaged with the vertical guide rail 14. There is.

A winding drum 17 rotatably driven by a motor (not shown) is provided at the upper end of the vertical guide rail 14, and a wire 18 from the winding drum 17 is connected to the vertical guide rail 11. It is connected to the bearing portion of the guide roller 16. As a result, the movable deck 11 is guided by both the horizontal and vertical guide rails 13 and 14, and becomes horizontal with respect to the pallet 10 stopped at the loading/unloading position, as shown by solid lines in FIG. As shown by the chain line in FIG. 3, there is a connecting position where the vehicle W is connected to one end and allows the vehicle W to protrude from the pallet 10, and a position where the pallet 10 is retracted to the side to allow the pallet 10 to circulate. It is possible to move between the evacuation position and the evacuation position. In this case, each movable deck 11 is moved to the retracted position as the wire 18 is wound up by the winding drum 17, and moved to the connection position by its own weight as the wire 18 is let out from the winding drum 17.

Further, in the case of this example, the pallet 10 is formed with downward slopes 10a that slope upward toward the sides on both sides thereof, and the movable deck 11 has the downward slopes 10a formed on the end thereof on the pallet 10 side. An upward slope 11a is formed that slopes downward toward the abutting pallet. Furthermore, the movable deck 11 is equipped with a mud switch (not shown) that detects when a load from an object is applied to the upper surface of the movable deck 11.
A warning is issued when the mud switch detects the load.

Further, the pallet 1o of the front parking device 4 is provided with parking accessories such as a car stop that can be retracted onto the pallet.

Therefore, in the above-mentioned vertical circulation parking equipment, when entering and exiting the front parking system R4, the empty pallet 10 on which the vehicle W is to be stored or the pallet 10 on which the vehicle W to be taken out is placed is moved by the running of the chain 8. The movement is stopped at the loading/unloading position, and loading/unloading is performed directly from the loading/unloading port 3. In this case, when circulating the pallet 10, each of the moving decks 11 is moved to the winding drum 17.
By winding up the wire 18, the wire 18 is moved to the retracted position. Additionally, the movable deck 11 may remain in the retracted position when loading and unloading the warehouse, but if it is moved to the connected position, the pallet 10 can be held between the movable decks 11° and 11 on both sides, thereby preventing the pallet 10 from rattling. This makes it possible to smoothly enter and exit the warehouse with less vibration and noise.

On the other hand, when entering and exiting the rear parking device 5, the pallet 10 is moved and stopped at the entry and exit position, and the empty pallet 10 of the front parking device 4 is similarly stopped at the entry and exit position. Then, each moving deck 11 is moved to the connection position by feeding out the wire 18 from the winding drum 17. In this state, the vehicle W
advance through the entrance/exit 3 and enter the empty pallet 10 of the front parking device 4, the empty pallet 10 of the back parking device 5 via the relay deck 12, or each side pillar vehicle mounting r15.
The vehicle W is moved backwards from the pallet 10 of the relay deck 1.
2. The vehicle will be exited from the warehouse through the entrance 3 via the empty pallet 10 of the front parking device 4.

Therefore, when entering and exiting the rear parking device 5,
Even if the vehicle W comes off the pallet 10 of the parking device 4.5 on the front or back side, the tires of this vehicle W will be supported by the moving decks 11 on both sides, and the vehicle W will not be able to enter the vehicle. You can take out the goods with peace of mind. Furthermore, when the wheels come off, the mud switch of the moving deck 11 detects this and issues an alarm, so it is possible to prevent the moving deck 11 from moving or the pallet 10 from moving in circulation while the wheels are off. . Furthermore, even when an occupant is on the movable deck 11 for entry and exit, this is detected and an alarm is issued, making it possible to prevent the parking equipment from malfunctioning.

Further, the empty pallet 10 is held between the movable decks 11.11 and is prevented from wobbling.
This is advantageous for smooth entry and exit of the vehicle W at the warehouse.

Note that it is also possible to separately provide a pallet exclusively for vehicle passage, which does not include parking accessories in the front parking device 4, and use this pallet when entering and exiting the rear parking device 5.

4 and 5 show other embodiments. In this example, the first movable deck 21 located on the center side of the parking device and the second movable deck 22 located on the outside thereof are connected to the hinge 2.
0, and are relatively rotatable around the hinge bin in the loading/unloading direction. In order to guide the movement of the moving decks 21 and 22, a horizontal portion 23a extends in a horizontal direction perpendicular to the loading/unloading direction, and a vertical portion 23b rises from the horizontal portion 23a via a curved portion.
A first guide rail 23 is provided, and a second guide rail 24 is provided horizontally below the horizontal portion 23a of the first guide rail 23.

That is, each of the re-moving decks 21 and 22 has guide rollers 25 and 26 provided at their outer ends supported by the first guide rail 23, and guide rollers 27 and 27 provided at the inner end of the first moving deck 21. The second guide rail 2
4 and is movable between a horizontal connection position and a raised retracted position.

Then, a sprocket 28.
A drive chain 30 is provided that is suspended from the second guide rail 29 and parallel to the second guide rail 24, and a bearing portion of the guide roller 27 of the first moving deck 21 is pivotally supported on the drive chain 30. And the above sprocket 28
．． The outer sprocket 29 of the sprockets 29 is coupled to a drive shaft 32 that is rotationally driven by a motor 31. Moreover, the pallet 1 is placed on the first moving deck 21.
An upward slope 21a is formed at the end on the 0 side and slopes downward toward the pallet that abuts the downward slope 10a.

Therefore, in the case of this embodiment, the removable decks 21 and 22 are moved between the horizontal connection position as shown in FIG. 4 and the raised position as shown in FIG. It will be moved to and from the evacuation position. In the movement to the connection position, in the case of the previous embodiment, the movable deck 11 moves to the connection position by its own weight, but in this embodiment, the first
The movable deck 21 can be moved until it reliably abuts against the pallet 10 and then stopped. In other words, even if the stopping position of the pallet 10 at the loading/unloading position shifts slightly, the stopping positions of the movable decks 21 and 22 are changed according to the shift, and the pallet 101. : Connection can be made without gaps, and vibration or noise when the tires of the vehicle W are transferred between the pallet 10 and the moving deck 21, 22 is reduced.

In addition, in each of the above embodiments, when the loading/unloading position is the lowest position of pallet circulation movement (lower entry method)
Accordingly, the above-mentioned movable deck may be provided at the lower end of the parking facility.

Furthermore, it goes without saying that the present invention is not limited to the above-mentioned embodiments, but can also be applied to cases where three or more parking devices are arranged in tandem.
