Description

[Detailed description of the device]

[0001]

[Industrial applications]

 The present invention relates to a multi-level parking device, and more particularly, to a multi-level parking device with a vehicle size detector that can check whether or not the entry position is correct when a vehicle enters the parking device.

[0002]

[Prior art]

 In recent years, the installation of large multi-level parking devices has come to be carried out in line with the development and construction based on city planning, and the demand for these large parking devices is gradually increasing. Some of such multi-level parking devices have the ground surface as a boarding position of the vehicle and lift and transport the vehicle by an elevator device to store the vehicle in a predetermined parking space, or carry the vehicle out of the parking space. Conventionally, in the above-mentioned multilevel parking system, in order to prevent accidents during the transportation work of the elevator system, a detector for detecting the vehicle length and width of the vehicle is loaded when the vehicle is loaded into the elevator system. However, as an example of such a three-dimensional parking apparatus, there is one disclosed in JP-A-4-53236. In this multilevel parking system, a vehicle length sensor and a vehicle width sensor are provided on or around the pillars (ie, guide rails) at the four corners of the elevator system, and the elevator system loaded with the vehicle is installed only at the height of the vehicle. While the vehicle is going up or down, if the vehicle length sensor and the vehicle width sensor detect that the vehicle length and vehicle width exceed the vehicle height and vehicle width, the elevator device is stopped from moving up and down, and the abnormality is detected. It is designed to notify the elevator and return the elevator device to the ground.

[0003]

[Problems to be solved by the device]

 However, in such a conventional multi-level parking apparatus with a vehicle size detector, the vehicle length or width is exceeded by loading the vehicle into the elevator apparatus once and then raising or lowering the elevator apparatus. Since it has to be detected, it takes time to detect it, and if there is an abnormality, the elevator device must be returned to the ground surface again, and the operation becomes complicated.

The present invention has been made in view of the above problems, and an object thereof is a vehicle size detector capable of quickly detecting an excess of a vehicle length or a vehicle width direction and performing a vehicle loading / unloading operation efficiently. It is to provide a three-dimensional parking device with a vehicle.

[0005]

[Means for Solving the Problems]

 In order to achieve the above-mentioned object, the present invention provides a vehicle width at a position corresponding to both sides of the vehicle near the vehicle door height, at the innermost portion of the vehicle loading / unloading section of the multi-level parking device and the door of the vehicle entrance / exit. The gist is that the detectors are installed facing each other in the front-rear direction so as to detect vehicles that have entered.

In addition to the vehicle width detector, the present invention provides a boarding position detector for controlling a boarding position by measuring a front end and a rear end of a vehicle entering a vehicle loading / unloading section, and a vehicle height. In addition to providing a vehicle height detector that detects the vehicle height, the vehicle height detector is located on the right and left of the vehicle width direction center of the vehicle on the front and rear sides of the vehicle loading and unloading section when the vehicle enters the vehicle loading and unloading section. The main point is that they are installed facing each other so as to form a pair in the front-rear direction at the position shifted to the left.

Further, the present invention provides a vehicle shift detector at a position outside the vehicle front-rear direction with respect to a boarding position detector that measures a front end and a rear end of the vehicle to prevent a vehicle from being caught when the elevator device passes by. What is done is summarized.

[0008]

[Action]

 According to the present invention, when the vehicle enters the vehicle loading / unloading section and the door of the vehicle entrance / exit is closed when the vehicle is loaded, the pair of vehicle width detectors mounted at the vehicle door height position of this door is provided. One of them comes to the position corresponding to both sides of the approaching vehicle. Then, one of the vehicle width detectors faces the other vehicle width detector, which is installed in a pair at the back and forth position of the vehicle loading / unloading section. For this reason, when the vehicle width detector is turned on, the left and right sides of the vehicle when the vehicle enters and exits the vehicle loading and unloading section without moving up or down and moving to the location where the measuring light beam is passed through. It is possible to immediately detect whether it is biased to either side or whether the door is not half-opened. Also, since one of the vehicle width detectors is attached to the door of the vehicle entrance / exit, it does not obstruct the entrance / exit of the vehicle by overhanging the path when the vehicle enters / exits the entrance / exit of the vehicle.

Further, the vehicle height detector detects a roof carrier when the vehicle enters the vehicle loading / unloading section, or the protrusion of luggage loaded on the roof carrier or the opening of the trunk lid. Since it was installed at a position shifted to the right or left from the center in the vehicle width direction, even when the back door made of glass such as a hatchback car is opened and jumped up, it can be detected by a non-translucent part such as a rubber edging. You can

Further, the vehicle deviation detector is turned on when the elevator device starts operating after the vehicle position detection by the vehicle width detector, the boarding position detector and the vehicle height detector is completed and turned off. As a result, the deviation of the vehicle in the front-rear direction is monitored when passing through the elevator device, and a trap accident is prevented.

【Example】

 An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is a side view showing a schematic configuration of a three-dimensional parking apparatus with a vehicle size detector according to one embodiment of the present invention, and FIG. 2 is a plan view of the three-dimensional parking apparatus according to the above embodiment. In these figures, reference numeral 1 is a multi-level parking apparatus, 2 is a vehicle loading / unloading section provided on the ground surface for vehicles entering and leaving the multi-level parking apparatus 1, 3 is a vehicle entrance / exit to a vehicle loading / unloading section 2, and 4 is a vehicle entrance / exit. Doors 5 for opening and closing the vehicle entrance / exit 3 are pits provided below the vehicle entrance / exit 2. Further, reference numeral 6 is a vehicle stored in this multi-level parking device, 7 is a hoistway for moving the vehicle 6 up and down, 8 is an elevator device for hoisting the vehicles 6 along the hoistway 7, and 9 are four corners of the hoistway 7. Guide rails 10 that are provided and extend in the up-down direction to configure the elevator device 8 are lifts that are guided by guide rails 9 to move up and down. Further, reference numeral 11 is an elevating hawk that is attached to the ascending / descending lift 10 and supports the vehicle 6 that is moving up and down. Is.

Further, reference numeral 13 is a boarding position detector that regulates the boarding position by measuring the front end and the rear end of the vehicle 6 that enters the vehicle loading / unloading section 2, and 14 is the vehicle that has entered the vehicle loading / unloading section 2. A vehicle deviation detector that detects a forward or backward deviation when moving up and down 6 by an elevator device, and a vehicle width detector 15 that detects a vehicle width and a half-door state of the vehicle 6 that has entered the vehicle loading / unloading section 2. Reference numeral 16 denotes a vehicle height detector that detects the vehicle height of the vehicle 6 that has entered the vehicle loading / unloading section 2.

Photoelectric tubes are used for the boarding position detector 13, the vehicle deviation detector 14, the vehicle width detector 15, and the vehicle height detector 16, and these various detectors 13, 14, 15, 16 are used. The boarding position detector 13 and the vehicle deviation detector 14 are paired in the left and right directions at the positions corresponding to the front end and the rear end of the vehicle 6 entry position on the left and right side surfaces of the vehicle loading / unloading section 2 of the multi-story parking system 1. Are installed facing each other. Since the boarding position detector 13 accurately detects the front and rear positions of the vehicle 6 entering the vehicle loading / unloading section 2 while the vehicle 6 is stationary, the boarding position detector 13 vertically extends from the lower end of the body of the vehicle 6 to the height of the ceiling 18. It has a structure in which multiple photocells are arranged in the same direction. On the other hand, the vehicle deviation detector 14 is composed of one photoelectric tube because it detects the deviation in the front and rear of the vehicle 6 when the elevator device 8 loads the vehicle 6 and moves up and down. Further, in the boarding position detector 13 and the vehicle deviation detector 14, the boarding position detector 13 must correctly regulate the entry position of the vehicle 6, while the vehicle deviation detector 14 is passing through the elevator system. In addition, at least the vehicle 6 should not be caught on each floor of the multi-story parking apparatus 1, so that the boarding position detector 13 is installed slightly inward in the front-rear direction.

The vehicle width detectors 15 are located on the front and rear sides of the vehicle loading / unloading section 2 of the multi-level parking device 1 at positions corresponding to the left and right sides of the vehicle 6 when the vehicle 6 enters the vehicle loading / unloading section 2. They are installed in pairs in the front-back direction so as to face each other. One of the photoelectric tubes constituting the vehicle width detector 15 is attached to the inner wall of the vehicle loading / unloading section 2, and the other is attached to the inner surface of the door 4 installed in the vehicle entrance / exit 3. Further, the vehicle width detector 15 has a plurality of photoelectric tubes arranged in a vertical direction so as to cover the door 17 of the vehicle 6 in a predetermined height range, that is, a portion where the door 17 is most protruded to the outside and a mounting position of the door mirror 19. It has a special structure and is set to a height that allows checking of the half-door state and checking that the door mirror 19 has not been tilted.

The vehicle height detectors 16 are located on the front and rear sides of the vehicle loading and unloading section 2 of the multi-level parking device 1, and are located slightly more than the vehicle width direction center of the vehicle 6 when the vehicle 6 enters the vehicle loading and unloading section 2. They are installed opposite to each other in pairs in the front-rear direction at positions shifted to the right or left. Similar to the vehicle width detector 15, one of the photoelectric tubes constituting the vehicle height detector 16 is attached to the inner wall of the vehicle loading / unloading section 2, and the other is attached to the inner surface of the door 4 installed at the vehicle entrance / exit 3. It is attached. The mounting height of the vehicle height detector 16 is set to substantially match the height of the ceiling 18 of the vehicle 6. The vehicle height detector 16 not only detects the height of the ceiling 18 of the vehicle 6 and the roof carrier or the protrusion of luggage loaded on the roof carrier 18, but is not limited thereto, and the lid 20 of the open trunk is not limited thereto. As shown in Fig. 2, it has a structure in which a plurality of photocells are arranged in a horizontal direction so as to detect a back door of a hatchback vehicle or the like. The reason why the vehicle height detector 16 is installed at a position slightly left or right of the vehicle width direction center of the vehicle 6 when the vehicle 6 enters the vehicle loading / unloading section 2 is that This is because the case where the door is made of glass is taken into consideration. In other words, even if the back door is made of all-glass, a rubber edging for cushioning or sealing for rainwater is attached to the periphery of this back door, so the vehicle edging is detected by this rubber edging. I am trying to do it. The detectors placed at the backside of the vehicle width detector 15 and the vehicle height detector 16 are installed at the backside of the vehicle loading / unloading section 2 instead of being mounted on the backside wall. It may be attached to.

The operation of the multi-level parking device of the present embodiment configured as described above will be described below. When the vehicle 6 is loaded, the door 4 is normally open at the vehicle entrance / exit 3 of the multi-level parking device 1. When the vehicle 6 enters the vehicle entrance / exit section 2 through the open vehicle entrance / exit 3 and the door 4 of the vehicle entrance / exit 3 is closed, the vehicle width detector 15 attached to the vehicle 6 door 17 height position of the door 4 enters. It comes to a position corresponding to both sides of the vehicle 6 with respect to the vehicle 6. Then, the vehicle width detector 15 faces the other vehicle width detector 15 installed at the back of the vehicle loading / unloading section 2. Further, when the door 4 of the vehicle entrance / exit 3 is closed, the vehicle height detector 16 mounted at the height position of the vehicle 6 ceiling 18 of the door 4 is located on the left side of the vehicle 6 in the vehicle width direction center with respect to the approaching vehicle 6. Come to a displaced position. Then, the vehicle height detector 16 faces the other vehicle height detector 16 installed at the back of the vehicle loading / unloading section 2.

Under this condition, when the boarding position detector 13, the vehicle width detector 15 and the vehicle height detector 16 are turned on, the vehicle 6 is stopped on the floor 12 of the vehicle loading / unloading section 2. The boarding position detector 13 detects the front-rear position of the approaching vehicle 6 and checks whether the vehicle is entering correctly. The vehicle width detector 15 detects the left-right position of the approaching vehicle 6 and whether the vehicle is entering correctly. Check whether or not the half door or the door mirror has been forgotten to fall, and the vehicle height detector 16 detects the height of the approaching vehicle 6 to determine whether the vehicle 6 is within the regulation and the trunk lid. Check if 20 or backdoor is open. If any of the above check items is abnormal, a warning corresponding to the abnormality is displayed to allow the driver to make corrections. As described above, even if the vehicle 6 is not moved to the position where the measuring light beam is passed through by raising or lowering the elevator device 8, when the vehicle 6 enters the vehicle loading / unloading section 2, the vehicle 6 is biased to the left or right. It is possible to detect immediately whether or not the door is open halfway. Further, since the vehicle width detector 15 on the vehicle entrance / exit 4 side is attached to the door 4 of the vehicle entrance / exit 3, the vehicle width detector 15 does not overhang the course of the vehicle 6 when it enters and does not obstruct the entry and exit of the vehicle 6.

If there is no abnormality in each of the detection operations, the detectors 13, 15, 16 are turned off, the vehicle deviation detector 14 is turned on instead, and the elevator device 8 starts the ascending / descending operation. When the elevator device 8 loads the vehicle 6 and moves up and down, the vehicle shift detector 14 monitors the shift movement of the vehicle 6 to the front or the rear, and when the shift is detected, the buzzer in the multi-level parking device 1 is activated. It rings and the elevator equipment 8 stops immediately. Then, after removing the cause of the abnormality, the original position is restored. If no deviation is detected, the elevator device 8 continues to move up and down and stores the vehicle 6 in a parking space on a predetermined floor.

In the above description, the multi-story parking system 1 has been described as a single-series type, that is, a type in which the vehicle loading / unloading section 2 on the first floor can receive only one vehicle 6, but 2 The present invention can also be applied to a multi-story parking apparatus of a continuous type, that is, a type in which one vehicle loading / unloading section, such as the vehicle loading / unloading section 2 in the embodiment, is provided.

[Effect of device]

 As described above, according to the present invention, the vehicle width is set at a position near the vehicle door height and at the positions corresponding to both sides of the vehicle at the innermost portion of the vehicle entrance / exit portion of the multi-level parking device and the opening / closing doors of the vehicle entrance / exit. Since the detectors are installed opposite to each other in the vehicle length direction to detect the vehicle that has entered, it is possible to detect this vehicle without moving it up or down and moving it to the area where the measuring light beam is passed. It is possible to immediately detect whether the vehicle is moving to the right or left when it enters the vehicle loading / unloading section, or whether the door is not half-open. Further, since one of the vehicle width detectors is attached to the door of the vehicle entrance and exit, various effects can be obtained such that it does not overhang the course of the vehicle as it enters and does not prevent the vehicle from entering and leaving.
