Serial No. 468,813.
This inventionrelates in general to storage systems and more particularly toan apparatus especially designed and adapted for use storing or parking automobiles, although also adapted for other uses and applications.
Among the objects of the present invention are to provide a storage system which eliminates elevators and transfer tables or cars and thereby avoids the loss of time involved in the use of such instmmentalities, which eliminates all elaborate stall equipment heretofore essential with storage systoms of this character, which avoids any extensive modification of the building structure housing the system thereby permitting standard types of buildings to be readily converted or changed over for storage purposes-or reconverted for other purposes without extensive alterations, which utilizes slightly modified hoisting and crane equipment for handling, the automobiles or other articles being; stored, and which operates with such eiii'ciency and at such a high rate of speed to enable the. cars to: be stored and re trieved in a minimum of time.
Another object of the invention is to provide a storage system otthis character which is economical in the use of space and which may be constructed and operated. at a com paratively low cost.
Other objects and advantages reside in certain novel features of the construction, arrangement and combination otparts which will be hereinafter more fully described and particularly pointed out in the appended claims, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, forming a part of this specification, and in which:
Figure l is a view longitudinal vertical section. taken on line 1-1 of Figure 2 Figure 2 is aview in transverse vertical section taken along section line 2'2 of Figure 1;
Figure 3' is a diagrammatic plan view showing the arrangement ofthe storage stalls and the intervening aisle on each floor;
Figured is a view in side elevation showing one of the grapples and platforms employed; and
Figure 5 is a view in end elevation looking toward the left hand end of Figure 4.
Referring to the drawings, B designates generally a building having the usual outside walls I and roof 2. The building is constructed with a plurality of floors designated a153, 4 and 5 Although any number of floorsmay be provided, the present storage system is especially designed for use where the ground area available for the buildmg is not'limited or expensive and when capacity is had by extensive. floor space rather than by building the building up to any great height; 7
An individual well is provided between each floor above the ground level and the ground level, these wells being: designated at 6, 7 and 8', respectively. On each of the floors of the building storage spaces designated at 1-0- are provided, the storage spaces 10 being arranged in spaced rows along the sides of the building and being separated by an aisle l1. At one end of the aisle 11 and over each otthe wells a hatchwa-y 12 is provided,
plurality of load-ing'platforms designated at are provided and may be conveniently stored in a pit 16 at the ground level of each well, the loading platforms 15 being stacked and being fed to the ground level one at a time by a suitable mechanism as, for instance, by a hydraulic ram. I
'lo-each of'thewells 6, 7 and 8 entrance and exit ways I7 and 18 are provided. The automobiles to be stored are driven into one of the wells 6, 7 or 8 through the entrance-ways 17 thereof and directly onto the uppermost platform 15" of the stack. For transferring each platform with its automobile thereon from the loading station at which the stack of platforms are located to any particular storage space and for retrieving the automobiles and platforms from the storage spaces and bringing them back to the loading station, overhead cranes, designated generally at C, C and G are provided. In other words, as shown in the drawings, there is a separate overhead crane for each floor of the building above the ground level. The cranes C, C and C are of identical construction and each has the usual motor driven traveling Afte bridge 20 running on a track-way provided by rails 22 suitably supported upon the building structure. There is, of course, one such track-way above the storage spaces of each floor and each such track-way extends longitudinally of the building and longitudinally of the storage spaces. On the traveling bridge of each crane the usual motor driven traveling truck 23 is provided and runs transversely of the bridge along a track-way 24 provided on the bridge. The traveling truck 23 carries a pair of motor driven drums 25 upon which cables 26 are secured and wound. The details of the construction of the traveling bridge, traveling truck and mot0! driven drums are not illustrated or de-- scribed at length inasmuch as this is conventional crane equipment, well known and widely used. It is to be understood, however, that a low-headroom type of crane is employed in order that a minimum of space may be required on each floor for the accommodation of the crane and the storage of the vehicles. As illustrated in the drawings the traveling bridge of each crane has its transverse girders 20' which connect the end trucks 20 spaced to accommodate the hoisting cables 26 and also a portion of a grapple designated at 31. The cables 26 of each crane are connected at their lower ends to a rectangular frame 30 of the grapple 31. The frame 30 carries four grapple arms 32 one at each corner thereof, and each grapple arm terminates at its lower end in an inturned hook 34. The books 34 are designed to interengage with cooperable hooks 35 provided on each loading platform 15. As illustrated in Figures 4 and 5, each loading platform 15 has a marginal frame 36 of channel construction to which a top plate 37 is suitably secured. The hooks 35 are appropriately fastened to the frame structure 36 of their platforms,
To transfer an automobile from the loadmg station to any particular storage space, the individual crane which serves the loading station at which the automobile is located is brought over its well 6, 7 or 8, as the case may be, and the truck of the crane is shifted transversely until the grapple 30 overlies the hatchway 12. The drums 25 are then rotated to lower the grapple until its hooks are positioncd to be engaged with the hooks 35 of the platform on which the automobile rests. r engagement of the hooks 34 and 35 the drums 25 are reversely rotated to raise the cables 26 and consequently the platform 15 with the automobile thereon and this operation is carried out until the platform is brought just above the level of the aisle-way 11 on the floor on which the automobile is to be stored. At this time the grapple 31 has its upper portion positioned between the trans verse girders 20 of the traveling bridge. The traveling bridge 20 of the crane is then actuated to carry the crane and platform and the automobile down the aisle until these parts are opposite the selected storage space whereupon the traveling bridge is stopped and the truck 23 moved in one direction or the other, depending on whether the automobile is to be stored on one side or other of the aisle. When the platform and automobile are properly positioned within a storage space the cables 26 are lowered to deposit t e platform flatly on the floor of the selected storage space and to disengage the hooks 34 and 35 whereupon the crane may be returned to transfer another automobile to another storage space. A reversal of this operation enables the loaded platforms with their automobiles to be returned from the storage spaces to the loading stations.
As shown diagrammatically in Figure 2, each crane has the conventional control cage 40 carried on the outside of the central portion of one of its girders 20*.
The hooks 35 on the loading platforms 15 are preferably symmetrically disposed with respect to the center of the platform as illustrated in Figure 4, that is to say, one pair of hooks is located at the same distance from the center of the platform as the other. However, these hooks may be offset if desired as illustrated in Figure 2.
