Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Industrial Application] The present invention relates to a parking device having a movable pallet.

[Prior Art] A multi-tiered parking device such as a two-tiered or three-tiered parking device is laterally moved along a guide rail 2 of a frame assembly 1 as shown in Figs. 13 and 14 as an example. It comprises a plurality of freely movable transverse pallets 3 and a plurality of vertically movable pallets 5 which are movable vertically along the columns 4.
The lifting pallet 5 in this illustrated example is above the moving area of the transverse pallet 3. Therefore, when it is desired to lower any one of these lifting pallets 5 as necessary, a space should be secured just below the lifting pallet 5 to be lowered so that the pallet 5 can enter. I have to. Therefore, the horizontal pallet 3 is moved in the horizontal direction as shown by the arrow in FIG. An empty space 6 for one pallet is secured. Therefore, a general parking apparatus requires a retreat space 7 having a width substantially equivalent to the width of one pallet, but it is expected to make this space 7 as small as possible.

Conventionally, as one means for responding to such a demand, as disclosed in Japanese Patent Publication No. 52-41952, there has been proposed one in which the pallet width is equal to or less than the vehicle arrangement pitch. In this type of parking device, as shown in FIGS. 15 and 16, the width w ₀ of the transverse pallet 3 is made considerably smaller than the vehicle arrangement pitch p ₀ . In this case, the traverse pallets 3 can be sequentially packed in the evacuation space 7 side,
Even if the required width s ₀ of the evacuation space 7 is small, a space for one pallet can be secured under the lifting pallet.

Alternatively, as another means, as shown in FIG. 17, the dead space on the back side of the pillar 8 in the building is used effectively to secure a space large enough to evacuate the traverse pallet 3. ing.

[Problems to be Solved by the Invention] However, the former (the one shown in FIGS. 15 and 16) of the above-described prior arts is the width w _{0 of} each transverse pallet 3.
Since the vehicle is difficult to take in and out due to the narrow space, and the gap between the pallets 3 and 3 is large, the foot space for passengers to get on and off the vehicle on the pallet is small, which is dangerous.

On the other hand, when using the space behind the pillar as in the latter (the one shown in FIG. 17), it may be effective in a building such as a building, but in a place without a pillar such as an outdoor parking lot. It cannot be an effective countermeasure in a building where the space behind the pillar is small.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION It is therefore an object of the present invention to provide a parking device that can reduce the evacuation space required for lateral movement without sacrificing the effective width of the transverse pallet.

[Means for Solving the Problems] In order to achieve the above object, according to the present invention, a frame assembly having vertical columns and horizontal guides, and a plurality of laterally movable along the guides are provided. In a parking device equipped with a horizontal pallet of a table and an elevating pallet above or below a moving area of the horizontal pallet and movable in the vertical direction along the support pillar, an edge of adjacent horizontal pallets is overlaid. A wrappable part is provided. The overlapping portion is a portion where both of the transverse pallets overlap each other in the vertical direction when the traverse pallets have moved to a position where they interfere with the other pallet.

[Operation] In the parking device of the present invention having the above configuration, when the traversing pallet is at a predetermined position (position where the vehicle can be taken in and out), the entire pallet including the overlapping portion can be used as a parking space. Further, when the traversing pallet is moved to the retreat space side as necessary when elevating and lowering the elevating pallet, the overlapping portions overlap with each other and the apparent pallet width is narrowed. Therefore, even if the width of the evacuation space is narrow, an empty space for one pallet required for the elevating operation of the elevating pallet can be secured.

[Embodiment] An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to FIGS. 1 to 4. Two-stage parking apparatus 10 shown in FIG.
The frame assembly 11 includes a plurality of vertical columns 12 and a guide rail as a horizontal guide 13 as in the conventional parking device. In addition, a plurality of traversing pallets 15 that can reciprocate laterally along the guide 13
In addition, a plurality of lifting pallets 16 that can move in the vertical direction along the columns 12 are provided. The lifting pallet 16 shown in FIG. 1 is above the moving area of the transverse pallet 15. The elevating pallet 16 and the traversing pallet 15 can be independently moved in the above directions by a driving means (not shown) using a motor and a power transmission mechanism. The traversing pallet 15 has rollers 17 used as wheels.
Moves laterally while rolling on the guide 13. A retreat space 18 is secured in the moving direction of the traverse pallet 15. The width s ₁ of the evacuation space 18 is made narrower than the effective width w ₁ of one traversing pallet for the reason described later. There is a stopper 19 at the end of the evacuation space 18.

The traversing pallet 15 includes a panel-shaped metal pallet body 21 having a size large enough to mount a vehicle, and overlapping portions 23 and 24 provided along side edges 22 of the pallet body 21. Has been done. As shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, the cross-sectional shape of one overlap portion 23 is formed so as to vertically overlap with the overlap portion 24 provided at the edge of the adjacent pallet 15. Has been. That is, one overlap portion 2
3 has a step-like shape that is lowered to a position slightly lower than the plate thickness of the other overlapping portion 24. The overlapping portions 23 and 24 are provided along the edge portion 22 of the pallet body 21 over substantially the entire length of the pallet body 21. The overlap portion 23 shown in FIG.
Both of them may be formed in a step shape like 24.

In the parking apparatus 10 having the above-described configuration, in order to take in and out a vehicle on the transverse pallet 15 (for example, the vehicle A _{1 in} FIG. ₁ ), the transverse pallet 15 is placed between the columns 12, 12 as shown in FIG. Keep it in place. At this time, the entire pallet including the pallet body 21 and the overlapping portions 23 and 24 can be used as a parking space. That is, the pallet body 21 and the overlapping portion 23,
Since a predetermined pallet width w ₁ is secured by 24,
Vehicles can be easily put in and taken out of the pallet 15, and a sufficient foot space for an occupant to get on and off the vehicle A ₁ on the pallet 15 can be secured, so that the passenger can get on and off safely.

On the other hand, when the vehicle (for example, vehicle A _{2 in} FIG. 1) on the lifting pallet 16 is taken in and out, the pallet 16 is moved by moving the traverse pallet 15 to the retreat space 18 side before lowering the lifting pallet 16 ′. Secure an empty space for one pallet just below the ‘ Each transverse pallet 15
When the pallet is moved to the side of the evacuation space 18 as much as possible, the transverse pallet 15 ′ located at the outermost end hits the stopper 19 and the pallets 15 and 15 adjacent to each other cause the overlapping portions 23 and 24 to overlap vertically. . Therefore, the apparent pallet width becomes narrower,
Even if the width s ₁ of the evacuation space 18 is narrower than the effective width w ₁ of the traverse pallet 15, the empty space for one pallet required to elevate the elevating pallet 16 is increased by the elevating pallet 1
It can be secured right under 6. If the traverse pallet 15 is returned to its original position, the entire pallet 15 can be used as it is as a parking space.

FIG. 6 shows another embodiment of the present invention. One of the overlapping portions 23 in this embodiment is attached to the edge of the pallet body 21 by a pivoting means 31 such as a hinge shaft so as to be able to rotate upward from a horizontal posture. The overlapping portion 23 is supported by an appropriate stopper so as not to rotate below the horizontal position in the free state. In this case, the other overlap portion 24 is shaped so that when it hits the one overlap portion 23, the overlap portion 23 can be flipped up. Therefore, the transverse pallet 1 of this embodiment
5 spreads to a predetermined pallet width in a free state in which one overlap portion 23 is separated from the other overlap portion 24, but the overlap portions 23 and 24 interfere with each other by moving the pallet 15 laterally. In the fitted state, the pallet is displaced in the direction in which the apparent pallet width is narrowed.

Further, another embodiment of the present invention shown in FIGS. 7 and 8 is one in which one overlap portion 23 is connected to the pallet body 21 by a link 33, and the overlap portion 23 is horizontal. While maintaining the posture, the pallet body 21 can be moved upward from a level flush with the pallet body 21. In this case, when the other overlapping portion 24 enters below the overlapping portion 23,
Overlapping each other in the vertical direction.

The embodiment shown in FIGS. 9 and 10 is an example in which the transverse pallet 15 having the overlapping portion 23 having the same structure as that in FIG. 2 is applied to a so-called pit hole type multi-stage parking device. That is, in this embodiment, the transverse pallet 15
Elevating pallets 16 are respectively located above and below the moving area of the pallet, and even if the traversing pallet 15 is moved to the evacuation space 18 side, the edge of the pallet 15 interferes with the moving trajectory of the elevating pallet 16. In such cases,
An overlap portion 23 is provided at the edge of the traverse pallet 15, and the overlap portion 24 of the elevating pallet 16 is stopped from above the overlap portion 23 in an overlapping state. By doing this, the lifting pallet 1
It is possible to prevent interference with the transverse pallet 15 when the 6 moves up and down. Moreover, the upper surface opening of the pit hole 34 can be sufficiently closed by moving each pallet 15 having the overlapping portions 23 and 24 to a predetermined position.

When the elevating pallet 16 exists below the traverse pallet 15 as shown in FIG. 11, the traverse pallet 1
Alternatively, the elevating pallet 16 may be lifted from the lower side of the vehicle 5 to overlap the overlapping portions 23 and 24. Further, as shown in FIG. 12, an overlapping portion 23 pivotally attached so as to be able to rotate and rise may be adopted.

[Advantage of the Invention] As described above, according to the present invention, it is possible to secure a predetermined pallet width when moving a car into and out of a transverse pallet, and to apparently retract the pallet in the lateral direction. The pallet width can be reduced to one side.
