Abstract

PURPOSE:To enable any type of cars to be parked at an upper stage so easily without a fear of damage to their wheels. CONSTITUTION:A gutterlike fixed wheel receiver 15, supporting one-side front and rear wheels 16 of an automobile, is locked to a top face nerer to each root part of plural pieces of forks 8 to be made go up or down by a lifting gear 9 making them go along a column 4 in a state of being horizontally projected to one side of this column 4 erected upright to a lower stage parking surface 2 as making it orthogonal with these forks 8. In addition, an extension arm 19 clamped to the underside of a gutterlike movable wheel receiver 19 supporting the other side front and rear wheels 16' of the automobile, is supported on a spot nearer to a tip of the fork 8 and locked with a screw 21, whereby an interval between the fixed wheel receiver 15 and the movable wheel receiver 18 is made to be free of adjustment. When upper parking is carried out, this interval between them is preadjusted so as to make these wheels 16, 16' of the automobile being intended to do this upper stage parking as centering each width of these fixed wheel receiver 15 and the movable wheel receiver 18.

Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a two-stage parking system having means for raising and lowering an automobile and capable of parking two automobiles above and below.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, there is a two-stage parking system in which a base plate for supporting an automobile is moved up and down by an elevating device along a support column which is perpendicular to a lower parking plane. Then, on the base plate that is raised and lowered by the lifting device in the two-stage parking device of this kind, by providing rising portions at both left and right ends and a convex portion at the center, the guideways of the wheels can be moved left and right. It is formed in a groove shape.

[0003]

In the case of performing the upper parking in the above two-stage parking device, first, the base plate is lowered onto the lower parking surface, and the left and right grooves on the base plate are grooved. After the wheels are introduced into the guide path formed in the above to support the automobile on the base plate, the base plate is raised to a predetermined height.
When introducing wheels into the guideways formed in the groove on the left and right on the base plate, in the case of a light vehicle, there is no space between the wheel and the convex part provided in the center of the base plate, and the size is medium or large. In the case of a car, there is no allowance in the space between the wheels and the rising parts provided on the left and right ends of the base plate. Alternatively, there is a drawback that the wheel tends to come into contact with the rising portion and the wheel is easily damaged.

The present invention eliminates the above-mentioned conventional drawbacks and makes it possible to easily carry out upper parking for any of a light vehicle, a small vehicle, a medium-sized vehicle and a large vehicle without fear of damaging the wheels. The main purpose is to provide a multi-tiered parking system.

[0005]

In order to achieve the above object, the present invention provides a support column 4 which is vertically established with respect to a lower parking surface 2.
Gutter-shaped fixing for supporting both front and rear wheels 16 on one side of the automobile on the upper surfaces of the forks 8 which are raised and lowered by the elevating device 9 along the support column 4 while horizontally projecting to one side. The wheel bridge 15 is fixed orthogonally to the fork 8, and the extension fixed to the lower surface of a gutter-shaped movable wheel bridge 18 supporting the front and rear wheels 16 'on the other side of the vehicle is provided near the tip of the fork 8. The fixed wheel bridge 15 and the movable wheel bridge 1 are supported by supporting the arm 19 and fixing the screw 21.
The distance between the and 8 is adjustable.

[0006]

In the two-stage parking apparatus according to the present invention, when the upper parking is carried out, first, the screw 21 for fixing the extension arm 19 to the fork 8 is loosened, and the extension arm 19 and the movable wheel on the fork 8. By sliding the bridge 18 to the left and right, the fixed wheel bridge 15 and the movable wheel bridge 18 are separated from each other by a distance.
5 and the movable wheel bridge 18 are adjusted so that the wheels 16 and 16 'of the vehicle to be parked in the upper stage are supported at the centers of the respective widths, and the screw 21 is tightened. By lowering the fixed wheel bridge 15
And the movable wheel bridge 18 are integrally lowered, and the wheels 16, 16 'are introduced from one end thereof to fix the automobile to the fixed wheel bridge 15
After being supported on the movable wheel bridge 18, the fork 8 is raised to a predetermined height by the lifting device 9.

[0007]

Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.

In the drawing, reference numeral 1 denotes a base plate fixed on a lower parking surface 2 with anchor bolts (not shown in the drawing). Both ends are inclined to be grounded to the lower parking surface 2, and a pair of front and rear cylindrical columns 4 are provided at the left end of the board 1.
Further, the elevating cylinders 5 are vertically established with respect to the lower parking surface 2, and the elevating cylinders 5 are fitted on the outer sides of the pair of front and rear rectangular cylindrical columns 4, respectively. Rollers 7 separately provided in the accommodating chambers 6 formed respectively are brought into contact with the outer surface of the rectangular column 4, and a pair of front and rear forks 8 are horizontally provided at the lower end of each elevating barrel 5 so as to project horizontally to the right. There is.

A drive motor 10 is linked to the inner upper ends of a pair of front and rear rectangular cylindrical columns 4, and a rotating shaft 11 is provided between them.
Two sprockets 12 connected to each other are provided, one lower end of the chain 13 hung on the sprocket 12 is connected to the upper end of the elevating cylinder 5, and a weight 14 is connected to the other lower end of the chain 13. And a pair of front and rear forks 8 are horizontally projected to one side of the rectangular tubular support 4 by the lifting device 9 so as to extend along the support 4. There is something that can be raised and lowered.

Reference numeral 15 denotes a gutter-shaped fixed wheel support for supporting both front and rear wheels 16 on one side of the vehicle, which is fixed to the upper surfaces of the front and rear forks 8 near the roots so as to be orthogonal to the forks 8 and has one end portion thereof. Is inclined downwards to facilitate the entry of an automobile, and a recess 17 is provided at the other end to prevent the automobile from moving and stabilize it. Further, near the tip of the fork 8, an extension of a reverse groove shape fixed to the lower surface of a movable wheel support 18 that is symmetrical with the fixed wheel support 15 and supports both front and rear wheels 16 'on the other side of the automobile. By supporting the arm 19 and screwing the screw 21 passed through the long hole 20 provided on the upper surface of the extension arm 19 into the screw hole (not shown in the drawing) provided on the upper surface of the fork 8, The distance between the fixed wheel bridge 15 and the movable wheel bridge 18 is adjustable.

[0011]

When the upper parking is carried out in the two-stage parking apparatus according to the present invention, the distance between the fixed wheel support and the movable wheel support is set to the center of each width of the fixed wheel support and the movable wheel support. Since it is adjusted in advance so that the wheels of the automobile that is going to be parked at the upper stage are supported, even if the position of supporting the wheels by the fixed wheel receiver and the movable wheel receiver deviates from the center to the left or right, there is still room. Therefore, it is possible to carry out the upper berth parking for any of a light vehicle, a small car, a medium sized car and a large sized car, and there is no fear of damaging the wheels. It is effective.
