Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Field of Industrial Application] The present invention relates to an improvement in a parking device for a motor vehicle.

[Conventional technology]

FIG. 3 shows a conventional two-dimensional parking method, in which a is a plan view of a right angle parking method and b is a plan view of a parallel parking method. In the figure, 1 is a parking lot, 2 is a road, 3 is a car, and 4 is an arrow indicating the movement of a parked car.

[Problem that the invention seeks to solve]

By the way, in order to park in a conventional parking lot,
There are problems as described below.

In the case of right-angle parking... In order to park the car 3 in the parking lot 1, the width of the road 2 facing the entrance/exit of the parking lot 1 needs to be 4 m or more.

In the case of parallel parking...not only does it require skilled driving skills, but the parking lot space is also wider than the vehicle width.
It requires 0.8m, vehicle length + 1.5m, and requires a large site.

As mentioned above, in any case, parking requires a road facing the parking lot and a certain amount of space on both sides of the car, and a high level of driving skills is also required. Securing a parking lot is often difficult both geographically and economically.

The present invention has been made to solve the above problems, and aims to provide a parking device that can be used even in narrow spaces.

[Means for solving problems]

In order to achieve the above object, the parking device is equipped with a removable shaft that protrudes downward at both longitudinal ends of a car receiving trolley that has a structure capable of loading a car and has a plurality of flexible wheels attached to its lower surface. At the same time, a bearing was installed on the floor of the parking lot to allow the shaft to rotate freely.

[Effect]

Since we have installed a parking device with the above configuration in a parking lot, when you want to park a car, you can pull out one shaft of the vehicle receiving trolley, use the other shaft as the rotation axis, and move one of the trolleys toward the road. After loading onto the trolley, the moved one side is stored again in the parking lot, and the removed shaft is inserted into the bearing and parked. When taking the car out of the parking lot, remove the shaft that was used as the rotation axis when parking, and move the trolley to the road using the shaft that was moved toward the road when parking as described above. When parking, you can exit in the direction you entered the trolley, making driving easier as there is no need to backtrack.

The trolley may be moved by human or mechanical power.

[Embodiments of the invention]

FIG. 1 shows a parking device showing an embodiment of the present invention.
is a plan view, b is a side view, and FIG. 2 is an explanatory diagram of the parking method, in which 1 to 3 are the same parts as in the prior art, 5 is a car receiving trolley, 6a and 6b are its slope parts, 7 is a free wheel, and 8
a and 8b are shafts, 9a and 9b are bearings, 10 is the floor surface,
11 is a stopper, 12 is a buffer material, 13 is a parking lot wall, and 14 is a car wheel.

As shown in the figure, removable shafts 8a, 8b are attached to both longitudinal ends of the vehicle carrier 5, which has inclined surfaces 6a, 6b on the front and rear, and has a plurality of free wheels 7 on the lower surface.
will be established. The above shaft 8 is installed on the floor on both sides of the parking lot 1.
Bearings 9a and 9b are provided in which the shafts 8a and 8b are rotatably inserted, and the two shafts 8a and 8b of the truck 5 are normally inserted into the bearings 9a and 9b.

When parking, as shown in Fig. 2, one shaft 8b is removed and the other shaft 8a is used as the rotation axis for the trolley 5.
Move one side onto the road. Next, the car 3 is driven in the direction of arrow 15 from the road 2 onto the truck 5, and after loading onto the truck 5, the stoppers 11 are engaged with the wheels 14, and the truck 5 is returned to the parking lot with the shaft 8a as the rotation axis. 8b into the bearing 9b. When moving from parking to driving, remove the shaft 8a, use the shaft 8b as the rotation axis, move the shaft 8a side onto the road as shown by the dashed line in FIG. 2, and drive the car on the trolley in the direction of arrow 16. urge By using the parking device according to the present invention, there is no need to run backwards when loading a vehicle onto the trolley 5 or moving from the trolley to drive, making it extremely easy to maneuver the vehicle.

In addition, since the main part of the trolley is attached with a cushioning material 12 using hard rubber or a spring, the trolley 5
Damage to either side due to collision with the wall 13 of the parking lot is prevented.

The carriage 5 is moved by human power or mechanical power. The mechanical force may include a winch, a hydraulic mechanism, or the drive of the wheels 7.

In addition, the floor of parking lot 1 will be paved with concrete, etc.
It is preferable to set it at the same level as the surface of the road 2.

〔Effect of the invention〕

Since the present invention utilizes a trolley on which a car can be loaded when parking a car, the following excellent effects can be expected.

The parking lot space can be small, reducing construction costs for parking lots in urban areas where land prices are high.

Parking will also be possible on sites facing narrow roads.

There is no need to backtrack and no skill is required for parking.
