 A bicycle holding and moving device for a bicycle parking apparatus according to the present invention will be described below based on an embodiment shown in the accompanying drawings. 1 is a perspective view showing an essential part of the present invention, FIG. 2 is a view showing an essential part of the present invention, (a) is a front view, (b) is a sectional view taken along line BB of (a), and FIG. 3 is FIG. 4 is an explanatory view of the operation state of the front wheel gripping mechanism, FIG. 4 is an explanatory view of the slide guide, (a) is a front view, (b) is a plan view, and FIG. 5 is an upper and lower two-stage bicycle parking bicycle equipped with the device of the present invention. It is a front view of an apparatus.

As shown in FIG. 5, the bicycle holding and moving device of the bicycle parking apparatus according to the present invention has a horizontally supported water support at a required height above the bicycle 1a parked in the lower bicycle parking section. An upper and lower two-stage bicycle parking with a flat guide rail 2 and a slide guide 3 that can freely move in and out along the groove of the horizontal guide rail 2 and that tilts when it is pulled out by a predetermined amount and grounds in a diagonal leaning shape. Guided by the slide guide 3 in the wheel device, the bicycle 1b is moved while holding the front wheels of the bicycle 1b to be parked in the upper bicycle parking portion, and the bicycle 1b is mounted. It is configured.

As shown in FIG. 4, reference numeral 11 indicates the inside of the guide rail 3a of the slide guide 3, which is composed of a guide rail 3a and slide rails 3b installed on both sides of the guide rail 3a within a required range. It is a mobile trolley that can travel along, and also has the role of a counterweight, as described below. A front wheel holding mechanism 12 configured as described below is mounted on the upper portion of the moving carriage 11.

That is, the front wheel holding mechanism 12 places the front wheel 1c of the bicycle 1b, for example, a front wheel mounting portion 12a having a U-shaped cross section, and a front wheel support frame 12b and a front wheel support frame 12b installed on the front wheel mounting portion 12a. It is composed of a mooring hook 12c of the movable carriage and a front wheel gripping mechanism 12d pivotably attached to both sides of the front wheel mounting portion 12a so as to be able to be raised and lowered respectively.

As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2 (a), the front wheel support frame 12b among them has the front wheel 1c placed on the front wheel mounting portion 12a and the front and rear frame members 13a and 13b. The frame is configured to be supported by the frame members 13c on both sides.

Further, as shown in FIG. 1 or 2 (a), the mooring hook 12c has its base end side pivotally attached to the front wheel mounting portion 12a by a pin 14a so as to be vertically swingable, and is attached to the front end side. , A hook portion 14b that engages with a carriage stopper (not shown) installed at the lower end of the slide guide 3, and a swinging protrusion 14c of the mooring hook 12c on the base end side of the pin 14a. ing.

Further, the front wheel gripping mechanism 12d is provided with a claw portion 15a for holding the front wheel 1c from both sides thereof at one end and a caster 15b for raising and lowering the claw portion 15a at the other end thereof. A pin 15c installed at an intermediate portion of the above has a configuration in which these are pivotally attached to the side of the front wheel mounting portion 12a so as to be tiltable.

Therefore, the front wheel gripping mechanism 12d is always in a tilted state as shown by the chain double-dashed line in FIG. 3 due to the rotational moment about the pin 15c pivotally attached to the front wheel gripping mechanism 12d. Then, the front wheel mounting portion 12a of the front wheel holding mechanism 12 of the movable carriage 11 fixedly positioned at the lowermost end of the slide guide 3 by the hook portion 14b that engages with the carriage stopper of the slide guide 3 that is grounded in a diagonal leaning manner. When the front wheel 1c is placed on the front wheel 1c, the front wheel 1c presses the swinging projection 14c, and the engagement between the hook portion 14b and the truck stopper is released.

When the bicycle 1b is pushed up in such a state and the movable carriage 11 moves within the guide rail 3a by a predetermined amount as shown by a chain line in FIG. 5, as shown in FIG. 4, the guide rail 3a is moved by a predetermined amount. The casters 15b ride on the abutment plates 3c installed on both sides of the position, and then move on the slide rails 3b, and the claw portions 15c of the front wheel gripping mechanism 12d rise up as shown by solid lines in FIGS. 2 (b) and 3. In this state, the front wheel 1c is gripped from both sides.

Then, when the bicycle 1b is further pushed up, the rear wheels are fitted into the guide rails 3a, and thereafter, the bicycle 1b starts to rise along the slide guides 3 while holding the front wheels 1c securely. The slide guide 3 is lifted at the position and pushed into the horizontal guide rail 2 to park the bicycle 1b on the upper bicycle parking portion.

On the contrary, when the bicycle parked in the upper bicycle parking portion is taken out downward, it goes without saying that the opposite operation to the above may be performed. At this time, when the front wheel 1c of the bicycle 1b is taken out of the front wheel mounting portion 12a, the swinging protrusion 14c is lifted upward by the bending moment with the pin 14a as a fulcrum, and the hook portion 14b engages with the carriage stopper to move the carriage. 11 is fixed.

The bicycle holding and moving device of the bicycle parking apparatus of the present invention has the above-described structure, and the horizontal guide rail 2 and the slide guide of the upper and lower two-stage bicycle parking apparatus in which the holding and moving apparatus is installed. The respective configurations of No. 3 and the relationship between the two are the same as those of the bicycle parking apparatus proposed by the applicant in Japanese Utility Model Laid-Open No. 2-134268.

That is, the horizontal guide rail 2 has a structure in which, for example, inner rails are provided on both inner rear half upper walls, and fixed guide rollers are provided on both inner surfaces of the front end entrance. A guide arm rod is attached to the tip end of the slide guide 3, the base end of the guide arm rod is connected to the slide guide 3 via a hinge, and the tip end of the guide arm rod is inside the horizontal guide rail 2. A roller that rolls along the rail is provided, and a roller along the inner rail is also provided at the base of the hinge, so that the slide guide 3 is guided and supported by the roller at the end of the inner arm rod and the roller near the hinge. It is like this.

When the slide guide 3 is pulled out from the horizontal guide rail 2 described above, when the slide rail 3b comes off the guide roller at the tip of the horizontal guide rail, tilting starts with the roller near the hinge as a fulcrum. Similarly, the slide guide 3 is tilted gently against the spring force by the action of the elastic force of the coil leaf spring 4 provided between the tip of the guide rail 3a and the tip of the guide arm rod. .

However, in the present invention, since the movable carriage 11 has a role of a counterweight, the front wheel 1c is placed on the front wheel mounting portion 12a, and the hook portion 14b and the carriage stopper are released. Even when this happens, the movable carriage 11 does not suddenly move upward due to the action of the elastic force of the coil leaf spring 4.

[0024]

[Effect of device]

 As described above, since the bicycle holding and moving device of the bicycle parking apparatus of the present invention is configured, the front wheel of the bicycle is mounted on the front wheel mounting portion of the front wheel holding mechanism located at the lower end side of the slide guide grounded in a diagonal leaning shape. When the bicycle is lifted by pushing the bicycle a predetermined amount along the slide guide, the grip mechanism is moved from the tilted state to the standing state by the slide plate and the slide rail. Since the car is gripped from both sides in a sandwiched state and this gripped state is maintained reliably thereafter, the holding of the front wheels is not released during the parking of the bicycle.
