The present invention relates to a tower garage having a mechanized parking facility. Tower garages with known mechanized parking facilities are provided in a corridor in which a traverse structure with at least one platform slidable in parallel to an upright portion of the traverse structure and a vehicle lift device comprising at least one counterweight is operated in the interior. And a plurality of housings for receiving at least one vehicle having an opening.

The top garage has significant parking capacity compared to the overall size, but it is highly dependent on the size of the corridor that passes through the garage and represents the operating space required for the crossover structure.

Therefore, reducing the overall size of the cross-section by just a few centimeters significantly reduces the overall size of the corridor, allowing larger parking capacity for the same sized top garage or even smaller overall size for the same parking capacity. do.

It is an object of the present invention to provide a tower garage with a mechanized parking facility with reduced operating space for optimization of the available space usage.

This object is achieved by a tower garage having a mechanized parking facility as claimed in claim 1.

By placing the counterweight in the uprights, the overall overall size of the system including the transverse structure and the vehicle lifting device can be reduced. This makes it possible to considerably reduce the length of the corridor to reduce the space that extends along the entire width and height of the tower garage at at least one end of the corridor.

The invention is illustrated by the non-limiting example of the accompanying drawings.

Referring to the accompanying drawings, the tower-shaped garage 1 having a mechanized parking facility according to the present invention includes a honeycomb structure 2, a transverse structure 3, a vehicle lift device 4 and a vehicle moving device 5. The honeycomb structure 2 is formed of a plurality of housings 6 with openings facing the corridor 7. The housing is preferably in the shape of a parallelepiped with reinforced concrete walls. In this example the housings are superimposed along both circumferential walls of the corridor 7.

The cross-section 3 operating in the corridor 7 comprises two uprights 8, 9, a transverse member 10, at least one geared motor, a lower wheel 14 and at least one upper wheel 15. ). The upper wheel 15 and the lower wheel 14 are engaged with the upper rail 11 and the lower rail 12, respectively.

In this example, the uprights 8 are subjected to greater stresses and thus have a greater resistance cross section than the uprights 9. The upright part 8 mainly receives the load transmitted to the traverse structure 3 by the vehicle lifting device 4. However, for light weight, the resistant cross section of the upright part 8 is hollow and therefore the upright part 8 has a tubular structure. Advantageously, the counterweight 16 of the vehicle lifting device is accommodated in the upright 8 to reduce the overall size of the completed cross-section 3 with the vehicle lifting device 4. Therefore, it is possible to reduce at least one end of the corridor 7 useless space extending along the length of the corridor 7 and the full width and height of the tower garage.

3 and 4, a pair of uprights 8 is arranged to cooperate with a first pair of guide rollers 22 and female feeding 18 located on counterweights 16. An internal guide 17 is provided. The uprights 8, 9 are also provided with a pair of outer parallel guides 19 positioned to cooperate with both the guide roller 23 located on the side of the first platform 21 and the second pair of female shoes. do.

Both lower wheels 14 run on the same lower rail 12. And at least one of them is driven by being connected with the geared motor 13. The lower rail 12 and the upper rail 11 are parallel and extend in the longitudinal direction of the corridor 7. The length of the corridor 7 is usually longer than its height and much longer than its width.

The transverse member 10 connects two uprights 8, 9 at their top and extends parallel to the upper rail 11.

The upper rail 11 has at least one C-shaped cross section and the upper wheel 15 slides between its flanges 25. In this example, each upper wheel 15 is capable of powering the idle wheel or the upper wheel 15 or only the upper wheel 15.

As can be clearly seen in FIG. 1, the upper rail 11 is arranged on the side of the transverse structure 3 so as not to limit the height of the uprights 8, 9. As a result, the inner and outer guides 17, 19 can also have a height very close to the height of the corridor. Thus, the vehicle elevating device 4 has a moving passage that makes the most of the available height of the corridor 7, further reducing the useless space.

The transverse structure 3 supports the vehicle lift device 4 comprising the first platform 21, the first cable system 26 and the winch 27.

Referring to FIG. 5, the first platform 21 substantially includes a loading floor 28 and a portal frame 29. The loading floor 28 has a loading capacity of at least one vehicle at a time. The port frame 29 is fixed to the center of the loading floor 28 by the uprights 30. The upright portion 30 externally supports the second pair of female shoes 20 and guide rollers 23 and also supports the first pulley 31 and the second pulley 32 under the loading floor. . The pulleys preferably have a plurality of grooves and form part of the cable system 26. The plurality of pulleys 31 and 32 are arranged such that the cable passage between the two pulleys 31 and 32 is oblique to the horizontal member 33 of the port frame. A brace rod 34 is positioned between the port frame 29 and the loading floor 28.

The loading floor 28 houses the vehicle moving device 5 (see FIGS. 7 and 8).

The vehicle moving device 5 can be seen from Italian Republic Patent 698,251 filed in 1963.6.7. The device can draw and transport a vehicle parked near the exterior of the loading floor 28 and also export a vehicle parked on the loading floor 28 nearby.

Although the vehicle shifter 5 is not essential for the operation of the top garage, this means that the vehicle must enter or exit the loading floor 28 by itself, so that the driver must enter the housing 6 with the car to drive the car, and thus The housing is particularly useful because it must be configured in a larger dimension so that at least one door of the vehicle can be opened, thereby avoiding a significant loss of loading capacity of the top garage at the same overall size. Furthermore, the presence of people in the top garage must be equipped with safety devices, which significantly increases the construction and maintenance costs of the top garage.

For reference, the vehicle movement device of the Italian Republic Patent 698,251 is in the same direction as the first platform along the first platform 45 and the common sliding axis 47 which can slide on the guide means located on the loading floor 28. It includes a second platform 46 that can slide on the first platform (45).

The second platform houses the vehicle engagement device 48 and the steering wheel alignment device 49. The vehicle engagement device includes two opposing pairs of retractable idle rollers 50. When the roller is extended, the rotation axis 51 is perpendicular to the platform sliding axis and parallel to the vehicle wheel rotation axis.

The vehicle steering wheel alignment device 49 includes a pair of rods 52 that are movable but always remain parallel to the platform sliding shaft 47. The rod 52 is moved from the first position in contact with the platforms 45 and 46 by the joint parallelogram structure 53 to the second separation position.

The first cable system 26, shown schematically in FIG. 6, has a first fixed end 35 on the upright 9, the first pulley 31 and the second pulley 32, and a third pulley 36. ), Fourth pulley 37, fifth pulley 38 and sixth pulley 39, second fixed end 40, and counterweight 16. The pulley for loading preferably has a plurality of grooves and can be engaged by the cable 41 bundle.

The third and fifth pulleys 36 and 38 are pivoted in an idle state on top of the port frame 8. The fourth and sixth pulleys 37 and 39 are movable along a trajectory parallel to the major axis of the uprights 8.

The fixed end 35 is fixed on top of the upright 9, and the fixed end 40 is fixed on top of the upright 8.

As shown in FIG. 4, the counterweight 16 is formed in a series of units which are slidable in the uprights 8 and are preferably connected by screw studs. At the upper and lower ends of the counterweight, the pair of female shoes 18 and guide rollers 22 are provided. Each deformed shoe 18 preferably comprises a bearing of self-lubricating semi-friction material.

The driver leaves the vehicle to park adjacent to the loading floor 28 of the first platform waiting on the base of the traverse 3. The vehicle moving device 5 is activated.

The first and second sliding platforms 45 and 46 slide along the axis 47 and pass from the front end between the wheels of the standby vehicle. When both have finished moving, the second sliding platform 46 is positioned underneath the vehicle such that the engagement device 48 corresponds to the rear wheel and the steering wheel alignment device 49 corresponds to the front steering wheel. Engagement autonomous 48 is activated and each pair of rollers 50 engages a wheel of the same magnetic axis. One roller of the pair lies in the rear of the wheel and the other in front of the wheel (see FIG. 8).

The steering wheel alignment device 49 is also activated. The two rods 52 are moved to the separating position and act against the inside of the two steering wheels to position the steering wheels parallel to the sliding axes 47 of the sliding platforms 45 and 46. The sliding platforms 45 and 46 pull each other to pull the vehicle parallel to the sliding shaft 47. The wheel of the vehicle is forced to rotate by a pair of idle rollers 50 pressed against the wheel under the influence of the movement of the two platforms 45, 46.

The vehicle is located on the loading floor 28 of the first platform 21 when the sliding platforms 45, 46 overlap.

The geared motor 13 is actuated to move the transverse structure 3 along the rails 11, 12. At the same time the vehicle lift device 4 is operated to raise the first lift platform 21 to the height of the desired housing. When the platform reaches the desired housing 6, both the vehicle lift device 4 and the traverse structure 3 are stopped.

The vehicle moving device 5 is actuated again to store the vehicle in the housing in the same way as loading. At the end of the unloading the roller 50 is retracted and the rod 52 is returned to the first and second sliding platforms 45 and 46 to release the vehicle wheel. The traverse structure 3 and the platform 21 are returned to the starting position in preparation for loading of the other vehicle. If another vehicle also needs to be unloaded, it is pulled shortly before returning to the starting position. Appropriate central logic units control this operation, minimizing the movement of the empty structure of the traverse 3 to a minimum.

9 to 11 show another embodiment of the tower garage according to the present invention. The tower garage 1A is entirely installed underground and therefore receives and exits the vehicle at road heights. Identical elements are denoted by the addition of A to the same reference numeral.

The tower garage includes a transverse structure 3A in which both upright portions 8A incorporate a balance 16A. The structures of the counterweight 16A and the upright portion 8A are the same as the structures of the counterweight 16 and the upright portion 8 of the tower garage 1, respectively. In this case as well, the counterweight 16A can be arranged in the upright portion 8A to reduce the operating space of the transverse structure 3A. In this example the housing 6A is arranged only on one side of the corridor 7A but may also be arranged on the opposite side. The transverse structure 3A slides on the lower rail 12A and the upper rail 11A having the same structure as the rails 12 and 11, respectively. In particular, the upper rail 11A extends parallel to the side of the horizontal member 10A and is connected to the upright portion 8A through the half beam 54. As a result, even in this embodiment, the inner and outer guide parts connected to the upright part 8A and having the same structure as the upright parts 8 and 9 of the tower garage 1 can reach a height very close to the height of the road, so that the vehicle has a low height. The platform can be lowered from the height of the road so that the height of the corridor can be utilized to the maximum or the depth of the corridor is included.

Thus, in this case too, the lift device can easily have a travel length that optimizes the available height of the corridor, thus reducing wasteful space and limiting the depth of the tower garage.

The cable system 55 is symmetrical with respect to the platform 56 having a different structure from the corresponding platform 21. The cable system 55 includes a cable 57 and a plurality of grooved pulleys 58, 59, 60, 61.

The pulleys 59 and 61 are in an idle state and pivoted on top of the upright portion 8A. The pulley 60 is a drive pulley and pivoted to the base of the upright portion 8A.

The pulley 58 is in an idle state and slides in the upright portion 8A together with the counterweight 16A. The platform 56 includes a loading floor 28A rotatably supported about an ascending axis by a power thrust bearing 63 supported by the base frame 64. The base frame also has the same structure as the female shoe 20 and the guide roller 23 of the top garage 1 and is therefore located at the upright 8A and with the outer guide 19 of the top garage 1. The female shoe 20A and the guide roller 23A which engage with the outer guide portion 19A having a similar structure are supported.

The vehicle moving device 5A of Italian Patent No. 698,251 is installed on the loading floor 28A.

The operation of the tower garage 1A is substantially the same as the operation of the tower garage 1.
