Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION (Field of Industrial Application) The present invention relates to a multi-level mechanical parking facility using an elevator parking device.

(Prior art) An example of an elevator type parking device is the Japanese Patent Publication No. 53-10739.
It is disclosed in the publication No. In other words, this parking device is
Equipped with a hoistway equipped with a platform for raising and lowering vehicles,
A large number of parking shelves are arranged in multiple stages along each hoistway, and the elevator platform is provided with a vehicle transfer device for transferring a vehicle between the elevator platform and the parking shelf.

By the way, in order to increase the number of parking spaces, it is conceivable to install two or more parking devices in parallel in the direction of entry and exit, or in a direction perpendicular to the direction of entry and exit, but the site conditions for this are difficult, and There are cases where the frontage can only be secured for one parking device.

For example, if a building only has enough frontage for one parking device,
This is a case where the other parking device is hidden behind the parking device or the building, making it impossible to form a vehicle entry area exclusively for the other parking device.

On the other hand, as shown in Fig. 9, a lifting platform a having twice the length of the vehicle is installed in one hoistway, and two parking shelves are placed on each side of this hoistway for lifting and lowering. Self-propelled trolleys C are arranged in columns in the length direction of the platform a in multiple stages along the hoistway, and are provided on the platform a to transport vehicles in the length direction of the platform a. There is a proposal to provide a cross-feeding mechanism d for cross-feeding a vehicle to a parking shelf (Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 1983-1999).
(See Publication No. 76782). In this proposal, the number of parking spaces would be equivalent to installing two parking devices with a frontage for one parking device.

(Problems to be Solved by the Invention) However, in the case of the above proposal, it is necessary to process vehicle entry and exit for two parking devices with one elevator platform, and rapid entry and exit processing cannot be expected. In addition, if the proposed parking facility is not incorporated into the building but is installed as an independent parking tower, as shown in Figure 9, a beam or diagonal structure is installed between the side walls e and e at the center position f in the width direction. Materials cannot be handed over.

This is because the ink interferes with the lifting platform a. Therefore,
The above-mentioned side wall e needs to receive the wind force g acting thereon only by the beam (and diagonal member) h arranged on this side wall e, which makes it difficult to ensure the strength or rigidity of this side wall e. .

In other words, the problem of the present invention is that when the frontage for entering a vehicle can only be secured for one parking device,
When configuring a parking facility with a vehicle capacity greater than the standard, it is necessary to eliminate the above-mentioned requirements regarding the handling capacity of parking facilities, and even if the parking facility is installed in an independent parking tower, the strength or rigidity of the parking tower must be The purpose is to make it easier to secure.

(Means for Solving the Problems) In order to solve such problems, the present invention provides a plurality of hoistways each equipped with a hoistway independently from each other, and provides a large number of parking shelves along each hoistway. While the shafts are arranged in multiple stages, one hoistway is provided with a vehicle entry section, and this entry section and another hoistway are horizontally connected to enable transportation of vehicles.

In other words, the specific means for this purpose is to have a plurality of hoistways, each of which is provided with a platform for raising and lowering a vehicle and arranged in parallel at intervals, and a plurality of hoistways arranged in multiple stages along each of the above-mentioned hoistways. The vehicle is equipped with a large number of parking shelves, and a transfer device that is installed on the elevator platform of each hoistway and transfers a vehicle between the elevator platform and the parking shelf, and the vehicle is parked on one hoistway. A three-dimensional machine, characterized in that the entrance part of the hoistway is provided with an entry part for boarding the hoistway, and the entry part of the hoistway is connected to another hoistway by an inter-hoistway transfer device that horizontally transfers a vehicle between the two. It is a type parking facility.

(Function) In the above-mentioned parking facility, since vehicles enter the entry area provided in the first hoistway, each parking shelf arranged along this first hoistway is Vehicles can be moved in and out using the lift platform. Regarding each parking shelf arranged along another hoistway, a vehicle transfer device that connects the other hoistway with the entrance provided in the first hoistway is used to move vehicles in and out of the parking lot. can be done. In other words, when entering and exiting a vehicle, instead of sharing the hoistway with all the parking shelves, multiple independent hoistways can be used individually, and only the entry area is shared.

However, as mentioned above, providing individual hoistways means that there is a portion (height position) of the entry section between each hoistway.
Although beams and walls cannot be installed at this height, they can be installed at other locations.

(Effects of the Invention) Therefore, according to the present invention, a plurality of hoistways each having a hoistway are provided independently from each other, and a large number of parking shelves are arranged in multiple stages along each hoistway. A vehicle entry area was provided in the hoistway, and this entry area was connected to other hoistways by a vehicle transfer device, so while there was only one entry area,
When entering and exiting a vehicle, multiple hoistways can be used, so even if the frontage for entering a vehicle can only be secured for one parking device, it is possible to use two parking devices without deteriorating the entry and exit process. In addition, even if the parking facility is built into an independent parking tower, beams, walls, etc. should be installed between each hoistway in areas other than the above-mentioned entry parts. This makes it easy to ensure the strength or rigidity of this parking tower.

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

This is done in a state where the traveling rail 26 of the pallet support member 25 and the shelf rail of the parking shelf 9 are connected to each other.

That is, by running the conveyor chain 28 in either the forward or reverse direction, one of the engaging pins 29 is sent from the return side to the carrier side at one end of the conveyor chain 28, and the engaging piece 23 at one end of the pallet 5 is moved. engaged with;
This pallet 5 can be sent to the parking shelf 9 in front of the other end side and detached from the engagement piece 23 at the other end of the conveyor chain 28, and as the conveyor chain 28 runs in the other direction, the engagement pin 29 is sent from the return side to the carrier side at the other end of the conveyor chain 28 to engage the engagement piece 23 at the other end of the pallet 5, and this pallet 5 can be sent to the parking shelf 9 in front of one end. It is something.

Next, the inter-hoistway transfer device 13 will be explained.
As shown in the figure, between the first hoistway 7 and the second hoistway 8, an inner rail 31.31 and an outer rail 32.32 extending in the transfer direction are provided on both sides of the fixed floor 3, respectively.
It is fixed at 0. The inter-hoistway transfer device 13 includes a running member 33 formed by connecting four frames 33a provided along the four rails with transition members 33b, 33b. That is, this traveling member 33
has a total of eight wheels 33c, two wheels spaced apart in the transport direction, on the four frames 33a, and the rails 31
．． 32 so as to be transportable.

In this case, a total of eight wheels 33c are provided offset to the second hoistway 8 side from the longitudinal center of the running member 33, and the running member 33 is moved toward the first hoistway 7 side. In this state, one half of one side of the running member 33 protrudes above the first hoistway 7 in a cantilevered manner. For this reason, the outer rail 32 is formed in a U-shape in cross section to enable the cantilever support.

A transfer rail 34 is provided on the outer frame 33a of the traveling member 33 to support the pallet 5 so that it can travel in the transfer direction. Each of the frames 33a and 33b has sprockets 35 and 35 arranged in the transfer direction at the end on the first hoistway 7 side and at a position one pallet away from the center from the end on the second hoistway 8 side. This sprocket 35 is supported by orthogonal horizontal axes.
