[0011]

[Embodiments] In describing the article storage device of the present invention, for convenience of description, for example, a case where it is applied to a parking lot will be described. As shown in FIG. 1, the first embodiment of the present invention, which has a relatively simple structure, is arranged in a double annular shape on each floor plane of a multi-story car park designed so that a plurality of rectangular floors are vertically stacked. A common circular center stand O 1 is provided as an elevator for vehicles at approximately the center of each floor, and an area adjacent to the outer circumference of the center stand O 1 on each floor, that is, a double annular inner parking space Is defined as a rotary annular area B1, an outer parking space adjacent to the outer circumference of the rotary annular area B1 is defined as a rotary annular area A1, and a two-seater elevator H1 used by a driver or the like is provided at each diagonal corner of each square floor. . Among them, the rotating annular area B1 is a rotary working area, which can be rotated forward and backward around the center stand O1, and its rotary drive mechanism is composed of a commonly known power mechanical transmission mechanism. Since it does not relate to the purpose of the invention, it will not be described in detail here.

Vehicles enter and leave the main parking lot in the following order. That is, as shown in FIG. 2, when the car is put in the parking space 33, the car is put on the center stand O1 located on the ground, and then, the center stand O1 carries the car up to a predetermined floor, and further, the rotating annular area B1. The car can be moved to the parking space 33 for parking by rotating the car to make the parking space 33 face the vehicle entrance / exit of the center O1.

Next, as shown in FIG. 3, when a car parked in the parking space 10 in the outer annular area A1 is to be unloaded, the rotating annular area B1 is rotated to direct the empty parking space to the vehicle. After that, the vehicle is backed up into the empty space, and then the rotating annular area B 1 is rotated to direct the vehicle toward the vehicle entrance / exit of the center stand O1, and the car is further backed up to the center stand O1. If you get on the platform, you can unload the central platform O1 afterwards. Of course, instead of rotating B1, the center stand O1 may be designed to be rotatable, and in that case, entry and exit of the vehicle becomes more convenient.

According to the above-mentioned first embodiment, when a parking space with a double annular arrangement is provided on the site 36 m × 36 m, 28 parking spaces are provided in the outer annular area A1 of each floor, and 13 parking spaces are provided in the rotating annular area B1. However, since the rotating annular area B1 must be provided with one parking vacant space and used to enter and exit the outer annular area A1 of the vehicle, it is substantially the same. Although there are 12 parking spaces in the rotating annular area B1, the system of the present invention can use the spaces more effectively than the conventional parking lots, and furthermore, the entrance and exit of vehicles can be controlled automatically by the computer. By doing so, the vehicle is operated so as to be parked in the most convenient parking space, and when the vehicle goes in and out, the vehicle is not in the rotating annular area B1. The rotating annulus B1 may be rotated in advance before reaching a predetermined position, or the parking sequence of the vehicle may be filled from the fixed or outer annulus A1 to the end of the rotating or rotating annulus B1. If you park your car, you can make better use of the space.

FIG. 4 shows a second embodiment of the present invention, which has a relatively large floor area. A rectangular floor with a parking space arranged in a triple ring shape has a central platform O2 at approximately the center and the central platform O2.

The center platform O2 is formed as a turntable and is mainly used to change the direction of the vehicle. The rotary annular zone B2 is a rotary working zone which can be rotated forward and backward about the center platform O2, and the rotary annular zone. B2 should have one parking vacant space as in the outer annular area A2 in front of the vehicle elevator K2.

The entry and exit of the vehicle is performed in the following order. As shown in Fig. 5, Fig. 6 and Fig. 7, when parking a car in a parking space, the car is put into one of the vehicle elevators K2 that has been lowered to the ground, and after the elevator K2 is raised to a predetermined floor, After getting into the center O2 to change the direction of the vehicle, get into the parking space of the rotating annular area B2 and stop, and further rotate the rotating annular area B2 to direct the vehicle to the parking space 40, Get in the parking space and park. Next, as shown in FIGS. 8, 9 and 10, when the vehicle in the parking space 30 is to be unloaded, the rotating annular area B2 is rotated to direct the parking vacancy toward the vehicle, If the vehicle is moved back to the parking space of the rotating annular area B2, and the rotating annular area B2 is rotated to direct the vehicle toward the vehicle elevator K2, the vehicle is put into the vehicle elevator K2. The vehicle elevator K2 can leave the vehicle by dropping it on the ground. By such a procedure, other vehicles can be moved in and out.

FIG. 11 shows a third embodiment of the present invention, which is different from the second embodiment and has a parking space formed of a triple ring. An elevator H3 for four passengers is provided in the center of the rectangular floor, and an inner annular area C3 is provided on the outer circumference of the four-seater elevator H3, a rotating annular area B3 is provided on the outer circumference of the inner annular area C3, and an outer annular area is provided on the outer circumference of the rotating annular area B3. A3 are formed respectively, and a vehicle elevator K3 is provided near each of the four corners of the floor. Among them, the rotating annular area B3 is provided so as to be rotatable in the forward and reverse directions around the four-seater elevator H3, and one parking vacant space is provided like the outer annular area A3 in front of the vehicle elevator K3.

The method of entering and leaving the vehicle is almost the same as that of the second embodiment, except that the third embodiment does not have a turntable in the center, so that when the vehicle leaves, the parking space is reduced. In order to move away from the vehicle, it is necessary to back up and get into the vehicle elevator K3.

In the present invention in which the parking spaces are arranged in a triple loop shape on each floor, if the site area is approximately 51 m × 51 m, 82 to 85 units (the parking spaces are set according to the number of vehicle elevators K3 installed on each floor). Parking space can be provided, and a considerable number of vehicles can be parked by fully utilizing the limited ground space. Further, a rotatable vehicle elevator may be provided at the center position of each of the second and third embodiments, in which case the vehicle can move in and out more quickly and conveniently.

In the above embodiment, a so-called rotating annular area is formed on the rotating ring machine, and the entire rotation of the rotating ring machine is used to set the parking vacancy of the rotating operation area to other inner and outer annular areas. A vehicle located in a parking vacancy in the rotary operation area can be parked in a predetermined parking space in the inner or outer ring area, or can be parked in a predetermined parking space in the inner or outer ring area. It is possible to unload the vehicle through the parking vacancy in the rotary operation area, and thus, all vehicles can be moved in and out by rotating only one rotary ring disc, so that the required power can be considerably saved.

FIGS. 12 and 13, 14 and 15, and in particular FIG. 15, show a fourth embodiment of the present invention, in which several identical annular sections are each provided with a slightly more uniform distribution. Each arcuate area is divided into equal parts, and each arcuate area is formed as an independent "moving body" that moves (shifts) in the same annular area in the circumferential direction. According to this configuration, the power required for each rotational movement can be made lower than the power for rotationally moving the entire rotary ring disc.

In FIG. 12 to FIG. 15, the parking floor having such an annular track system is provided with a center platform O4, an outer annular zone A4, a rotating annular zone B4, and an inner annular zone C4, of which the center platform O4 is provided.

The outer annular area A4 is a fixed area, and the rotating annular area B4 and the inner annular area C4 inside the outer annular area A4 are respectively provided with annular tracks B41, C41 centered on the center O4 on the bottom surface. As shown in FIG. 13, the tops of the tracks B41, C41 are flush with the floor, and the truck S is provided on the upper surface of the tracks B41, C41 so as to be self-propelled along the tracks B41, C41. Instead of distributing the carriage S over the whole, at least one parking space for each track B41, C41 is set to a parking vacant space and the carriage S is installed without installing the carriage S to form a vehicle passage to the parking space in the outer annular area A4. .

From the above-mentioned devices, the position of the carriage S in this embodiment can be used as a parking space together with the parking space in the outer annular area A4 as in the above-mentioned embodiments, and the entry / exit method of the vehicle is As shown in FIG. 12, when the car in the parking space 51 is unloaded, the carriage S is moved so that the empty carriage 77 on the track C41 faces the car, and the car is backed to move the carriage. If you get on 77, you can go down to the ground via the center O4 and leave. Further, as shown in FIG. 14, when a car loaded on the center stand O4 is to be parked in the parking space 6, the carriage S is moved to form a passageway on the tracks C41, B41, and is directed toward the parking space 6. By doing so, the vehicle can be parked in the parking space 6 through the passage. The center platform O4 automatically adjusts the ascending / descending position according to the height difference between the inner annular area C4 and the outer annular area A4 (height of the carriage) so that the vehicle can move in and out. Therefore, the number of trucks to be moved each time is only a few in the same annular area, and less power is required than when rotating the entire annular area.
