When the vehicle is parked in the front parking device by mechanically interlocking the upper limit movement of the movable frame or indicator light with the operation, the indicator or movable frame is lowered by the lowering movement of the flap. By descending, you can avoid misperception that you should move forward to the parking device further back, and since guide lights and mirrors are fixed to the movable frame, it is easy to understand the stopping position, and it is possible to park in a single row. The process is the same as when storing the equipment.

Further, when the vehicle enters the rear parking device, the flap is raised, and the display device or the movable frame is also raised to allow the vehicle to pass.

That is, since the vertical movement of the flap and the vertical movement of the display device or movable frame are mechanically coupled, the movement of the display device or movable frame is reliable. That is, since the same power cylinder can be used for both the vertical movement of the flap and the vertical movement of the display device or movable frame, the mechanism of the display device can be simplified.
