Abstract

PURPOSE:To provide an apartment house physical distribution system which does not reduce a dwelling space and makes it possible to carry out an article according to its destination from each house or carry in it into the house. CONSTITUTION:A carrying passage for carrying out communication between each house L and an underground space U is formed inside a support, and a cage ascends and descends in the carrying passage for carrying out a loaded article through a taking in port 48. Thus, since the carrying passage is provided in such way, the utilizable area of an apartment house is not reduced. The carried out articles are classified by their destinations through a receiving conveyer 46 and a classifying coveyer 52. On the other hand, the article transfered to the receiving conveyer 56 is received into a receiving house 60 by a transfering lift 66. Since the receiving house 60 is thus provided in the underground space, there is no necessity for providing the receiving space in a dwelling space.

Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a physical distribution system in an apartment house which conveys articles from each residence unit of the apartment house to each destination and carries the articles into each residence unit.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art In order to make effective use of land, an apartment house having a plurality of dwelling units is built on each floor in each city.

In such an apartment house, the storage space to be provided in each dwelling unit is decided at the time of designing, but as a practical matter, the required storage space is in each dwelling unit depending on the family structure of the resident, life pattern, etc. to differ greatly.

If a storage space is provided in the dwelling unit,
Inevitably, the precious living space cannot be reduced to create a comfortable living space. On the other hand, there are not many apartment houses where the underground space is effectively used.

Further, the items stored in the storage space include seasonal items as well as items used daily such as futons.
Some items, such as recycled items and bulky garbage, have a limited storage period, and some have little value in being kept in the dwelling unit by only temporarily storing them. It causes a narrowing.

[0006] Therefore, it is possible to manually carry out the goods according to the purpose and carry them into the dwelling unit, but this is not practical under the current situation where the labor cost is soaring.

For this reason, there is also proposed an article conveying system in which a transverse conveying path which is laterally connected to each dwelling unit is provided on each floor, and a vertical conveying path is provided for receiving articles from the transverse conveying path and delivering them to the ground (special feature). JP-A-52-2972, JP-A-5
2-86677).

[0008] However, the provision of the exclusive transverse transport path and vertical transport path in this manner narrows the space used in the housing complex.

[0009]

DISCLOSURE OF THE INVENTION In consideration of the above facts, the present invention takes into consideration the above-mentioned facts and does not narrow the living space, so that the goods can be carried out from each dwelling unit to each destination or can be carried into the dwelling unit. The purpose is to provide a system.

[0010]

According to a first aspect of the present invention, there is provided a distribution system for a housing complex in a housing complex, and a transportation passage for communicating between each dwelling unit of the housing complex and an underground space. A cage that can carry out the articles from the transportation passage, and a sorting device that is provided in the underground space and sorts the articles transported through the transportation passage by destination.
It is characterized by having a moving lift for receiving the sorted articles as a storage destination, and a storage provided in the underground space for storing the articles by the moving lift.

The physical distribution system in the housing complex according to claim 2 is characterized in that the transport passage is formed inside a pillar that is erected from the underground space to the rooftop.

The distribution system in the housing complex according to claim 3 is characterized in that the transport passage is formed through the veranda from the underground space to the rooftop.

[0013]

[Operation] In the distribution system in the housing complex according to the present invention,
A transport passage is formed that communicates between each dwelling unit and the underground space, and the cage moves up and down in the transport passage to carry the loaded articles out of the transport passage at the designated destination. In this way, since the transport passage is formed only in the vertical direction of the collective housing, the use area of the collective housing is increased as compared with the conventional case where the traverse path is provided.

The articles carried out from each dwelling unit are sent to the sorting device provided in the underground space through the transport passage. The sorting device sorts and collects articles according to destinations.

Here, articles, such as seasonal articles, which are used at a certain time, are sent to the moving lift as stored articles by the sorting device. This moving lift stores articles in a storage box provided in the underground space.

In this way, by providing a storage box in the underground space and temporarily storing unnecessary articles, it is not necessary to provide a storage space in the residential space. In addition, an underground space that is not suitable as a residential space can be effectively used, and the collective effect can be improved by collectively storing the underground space.

Since articles such as courier service are loaded in a cage and directly carried into each dwelling unit from an underground space through a transportation passage, the transportation company can save labor.

Further, by issuing a carry-in instruction from each dwelling unit, the moving lift takes out the designated article from the storage box and transfers it to the sorting apparatus. Here, by driving the sorting device in reverse, the designated articles are loaded into the cage and carried into the intended dwelling unit.

Further, by forming the transfer passage inside the pillars standing from the underground space to the rooftop, the transfer passage does not reduce the living space of the collective housing, and it penetrates the veranda of each dwelling unit. Even if the transport passage is formed by doing so, it is not necessary to sacrifice the living unit space.

On the other hand, if it is determined in step 124 that the car is not out, that is, if the courier or the like has operated the designation button 78 provided in the intake 48, the cage 22 is operated in step 138. Moves to the B1 floor. Next, when the container M is mounted in the cage 22 in step 140, it is determined in step 140 whether the mounting is completed. In the affirmative, the process proceeds to step 134, the cage 22 moves to the dwelling unit L having the designated room number, and the parcel or the like is carried out to the conveyor 18 placed on the veranda 20.

As described above, in the physical distribution system according to the present embodiment, the container is mechanically transported from door to door without human intervention.

In this embodiment, the case where a relatively heavy container is carried in and out is mainly described.
Not limited to the container, unnecessary garbage may be carried out using a plastic bag. It is also possible to build a system for bringing in lightweight mail items into a dwelling unit by connecting each dwelling unit to a mailbox provided on the ground floor with an air shooter.

Furthermore, the storage conditions (humidity, temperature, etc.) can be changed according to the contents in the container stored in the rack. Further, it is of course possible not only to transfer between the underground space and the dwelling unit but also to transfer the container between the dwelling units.

Further, when carrying out the container M, the carry-in date and time may be stored in the control device so that the container M can be carried into the dwelling unit from the storage at a desired date and time.

Further, the apartment house described in this embodiment is
For example, a building equipped with a convenience store, shared facilities, etc. on the first floor can also be used to transport products from the convenience store to each dwelling unit using the above-mentioned physical distribution system, and the work made in the shared facility Can also be transported to your own dwelling unit or storage.

Further, the transport mechanism described in this embodiment is
It is needless to say that it is usually used in a distribution center or the like, and is not limited to this.

The object of the present invention is to make it possible to effectively use the dwelling unit space even if a transport passage is provided in an apartment house.
However, the transport passage is not limited to the one described in the present embodiment, and as shown in FIG. 8, a transport passage 90 that penetrates the veranda 20 in the vertical direction is formed, and the entrance 92 of the transport passage 90 is formed. May be provided at two positions above and below and partitioned by partition walls (not shown) to protect the privacy of the adjacent dwelling unit L.

Further, as shown in FIG. 9, even if the transport passage 98 is provided in the entrance hall 96 in consideration of usability, the residential space is not substantially narrowed.

[0051]

EFFECTS OF THE INVENTION Since the present invention is constructed as described above, articles can be carried out from each dwelling unit by destination or directly into the dwelling unit without the transport passage narrowing the dwelling space. In addition, the underground space can be effectively used and the collective effect can be improved by storing them in a lump.
