Multi-storey Parking Tower {MULTISTORY PARKING TOWER}

The present invention relates to a parking tower that is a building-type parking facility, and more specifically, a multistory parking tower that can provide a maximum parking space in a limited space and can quickly release a parked vehicle. parking tower).

As automobiles are becoming more popular, car usage rates and car penetration rates are increasing rapidly every year. With the increase of car penetration rates, the need for automobile-related facilities is also considered important. In particular, parking is one of the most important issues due to the increasing use of automobiles.

If there is a large car population for a building or a facility, such as a bustling city, while there is an absolute lack of available parking space, securing parking spaces can be a significant issue among car users. In addition, the parking problem may further develop into a society-wide problem.

In addition, the increasing supply of automobiles has led to an increase in the number of households with two or more cars, making the task of securing parking spaces more serious.

In order to solve this problem, various types of parking equipment have been disclosed that can efficiently provide a parking space.

The main purpose of these parking facilities is to provide as much parking space as possible in a limited space, and for the secondary purpose, there is a simple structure and system, convenience of operation, quick receipt and release, and low construction cost.

1 is a schematic view for explaining a conventional parking tower.

Referring to FIG. 1, the parking tower 10 includes a plurality of platforms 20 arranged in two rows and a vehicle lift 15 for transporting a vehicle. The two rows of platforms 20 are arranged to face each other from side to side, and the vehicle elevator 15 moves up and down between the rows of both platforms 20 to park the vehicle in the left and right empty parking spaces or leave the parked vehicle. Transfer to position.

Parking tower 10 of Figure 1 is built adjacent to the building can park about 10 to 50 vehicles, the parking tower 10 is the lower part of the rising tower entrance 12 of the parking tower 10 is parked Located in the center of the first floor of the tower (10).

However, since the platform floor of the parking tower 10 provides only one parking space to the left and right, there are many limitations in the expansion of the parking space. For example, in order to provide more parking spaces, the height of the parking tower 10 should be formed higher. In addition to increasing the load on the first floor structure, the height of the parking tower 10 increases the platform. This means that the transport time of the liver is significantly increased. However, the car lifter has to move slowly because it moves the vehicle, and as the number of floors of the parking tower increases, the transfer time from the highest floor to the lowest floor is excessively inefficient. In general, a method of arranging a plurality of parking towers in parallel to solve the disadvantage of the conventional single parking tower is also disclosed.

2 is for explaining another conventional parking tower arranged in parallel.

Referring to FIG. 2, the parking tower 50 is disposed in parallel with the parking tower 10 of FIG. 1 and is generally used when the parking tower 10 intends to expand the parking space.

The parking tower 50 forms a parking tower unit 10 in pairs of platforms in two rows, and two parking tower units 10 are closely arranged with each other. As shown, each parking tower unit 10 includes an entrance 12 for entry and exit at the center of the first floor, and a space for passing the vehicle lift 15 is formed in the upper portion of the space entering the entrance 12. It is.

Although the parking tower units 10 may be arranged in parallel to provide more parking spaces, there is still room for efficient space utilization. That is, as shown in the parking tower 50 shown in FIG. 2, a space through which the vehicle elevator 15 can pass must be secured between the platforms 20, and one car parks two vehicles on each floor. The space where the vehicle can be parked should be used as an aisle. That is, the vehicle cannot be parked in about one third of the spaces provided in the parking tower unit 10.

That is, the conventional parking tower can park only one vehicle to the left and right of the vehicle lift, so the number of parking spaces is limited, and the efficiency of space utilization is low accordingly.

Accordingly, an object of the present invention is to provide a parking tower that can accommodate two or more vehicles on each platform by arranging the parking spaces in series, and can provide the maximum parking space within the limited space.

In addition, another object of the present invention is to provide a parking tower that can quickly put the vehicle in the intended parking space, and can be shipped quickly.

In addition, another object of the present invention is to provide a parking tower that can simply and safely wear and leave the vehicle.
