DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a mechanical parking device for storing vehicles of different heights in a mixed state.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art A typical vertical-circulation type parking device among mechanical parking devices is generally configured such that a plurality of cages are suspended at equal intervals on an endless driving chain which is provided vertically and circulated and driven. It is configured.

If the cages having different heights according to the height of the vehicle are simply attached to the driving chain as they are, the floor surfaces of the cages will not be at the same level. For example, Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 3-28680 discloses the same. Such a parking device has been proposed.

In general, a cage for a normal vehicle having a low vehicle height is configured as shown in FIG. 2, and a cage for a high roof vehicle having a high vehicle height is generally configured as shown in FIG. The car cage 30 and the high-roof car cage 20 are arranged.

In the figure, reference numeral 10 denotes a sprocket provided at the upper part of the hoistway, 11 denotes a sprocket provided at the lower part of the hoistway, 12 denotes an upper sprocket 10 and a lower sprocket 1.
1 is an endlessly extending drive chain, and 13 is an arm fixed to the drive chain 12 at predetermined intervals, which will be described later. Alternatively, the ordinary car cage 30 is rotatably suspended.

The high-roof car cage 20 includes a shaft 14.
A frame 21 formed in a square shape is suspended rotatably one by one in the front and the rear, respectively.
1, a cage floor 22 is fixed by bolts or the like (not shown), and an upper portion of the front and rear frames 21 is directly connected to a pipe 2 at a position slightly higher than the height of the high-roof vehicle.
3 is connected and fixed, and a shoulder roller 24 for preventing the cage from swaying is rotatably attached to the front frame 21 with a height H and a width W.

On the other hand, similarly to the cage 20 for a high-roof vehicle, the cage 30 for a normal vehicle has a frame 21 formed in a square shape on the shaft 14 and is hung rotatably forward and backward one by one. A cage floor 22 is fixed to a lower portion of the rear frame 21 by bolts or the like (not shown), and a shoulder roller 24 is attached to an upper portion of the front frame 21 so as to be rotatable in a height H and a width W. However, the joint pipe 33 is connected and fixed to the center of the bottom of the inverted T-shaped bracket 34 at positions near the center of the front and rear frames 21, that is, at positions slightly higher than the height of the ordinary vehicle. .

The mounting pitch between the arm 13 of the high-roof car cage 20 and the arm 13 of the normal car cage 30 is a necessary minimum like L ₁ , L ₂ (L ₁ > L ₂ ) as shown in FIG. The space is used as densely as possible, shrinking to the limit.

[0009]

However, in such a device, both the cage for the ordinary vehicle and the cage for the high-roof vehicle are standard cages (cage of a standard type parking device for storing only ordinary vehicles). ), It is custom-made and expensive. Also, as shown in FIG. 5, the motor 40 is rotated at a rotating portion of the upper sprocket 11 so that a cage having a height larger than that of the standard type cage can be rotated (so as not to interfere with the rotation locus of the cage).
In order to transmit the motive power to the sprocket 10 via the speed reducer 41 and the connecting shaft 42 (the sprockets cannot be directly connected to each other), an extra intermediate gear must be added to provide a large space, and the standard drive is also used here. There was a problem that the device could not be used as it was.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention has been made in view of the above points, and has as its object to provide a parking device that can utilize parts and devices of a standard parking device as much as possible.

[0011]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION According to the present invention, a cage of a parking device in which a plurality of cages are circulated through an arm by an endless drive chain is connected to upper portions of cage frames located at the front and rear by connecting members. A first cage for a tall vehicle having a first connecting member having an intermediate portion eccentric upward in the cage, and a second cage not eccentric at least upward. A second cage for a vehicle having a low height provided with a connecting member is mixed, and the floor of the first cage is detachably provided.

[0012]

With the above construction, even cars having different heights can be stored without any loss in space, and all cages can be smoothly guided by the same guide rail.

[0013]

An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. 1 is an overall view showing an embodiment according to the present invention when applied to a vertical circulation type multi-story parking device, FIG. 6 is an enlarged view of a cage for a normal car according to the present invention, and FIG. 7 is a high roof vehicle according to the present invention It is an enlarged view of the cage for use, and the thing with the same code | symbol in FIG. 2 thru | or FIG. 5 shows the same thing.

Reference numeral 50 denotes a cage for an ordinary vehicle according to the present invention, which may be exactly the same as a conventional standard type cage. 50a and 50b are a pair of front and rear rectangular cage frames which are inclined so as to move away from each other as they face upward.
Reference numeral 0c denotes a connecting member that is rotatably attached to the front and rear arms 13 at both ends, and connects the upper portions of the cage frames 50a and 50b to each other.
A connecting member 51 for connecting the lower portions of the a and 50b to each other, 51 is a cage floor mounted on the cage frames 50a and 50b and the connecting member 50d, and the cage frames 50a and 50b, the connecting members 50c and 50d, the cage floor 51 and And ordinary car cage 50
Is configured.

Numeral 60 denotes a cage for a high-roof vehicle according to the present invention. Numeral 60c denotes a connecting member having an intermediate portion eccentric upward so as to accommodate the high-roof vehicle. , Each of which is rotatably attached to the cage frame 50a, 50b similar to the cage for a normal vehicle.
Interconnect between the tops of the 61 is a cage frame 50a, 5
0b and a cage floor detachably provided on the connecting member 50d, the cage frames 50a, 50b and the connecting members 60c, 5c.
0d and the cage floor 61 constitute a high-roof car cage 60.

[0016] Then, the same size as in the ordinary car cage 50 and high-roof vehicle cage 60 both dimensions H ₀ of the attachment portion from (hanging wire) to the lower end of the cage arms 13, 13 of the standard cages It is suppressed to.

Unlike the ordinary car cage 50, the high-roof car 60 does not allow the high-roof car to enter or exit from the front or back (the tip of the arm 13 and the end of the connecting member 60c collide with the upper part of the high-roof car). Therefore, since it is necessary to enter and exit from the side surface of the cage 60, a well-known swivel device that can move up and down is provided in the pit of the hoistway, and the cage floor 61 is rotated 90 ° as shown in FIG. become.

On the other hand, in the case of the cage 50 for a normal car, since it is possible to freely enter and exit from the front or the back, a turning device is not necessarily required. Frames 50a, 50
It is quite possible to attach to b so that it can enter and exit from the side of the cage 50.

In the mixed circulation type parking apparatus in which the ordinary car cage 50 and the high roof car cage 60 are mixed, for example, as shown in FIG.
2, a car 50 for a normal car is attached for every four links, and a cage 60 for a high roof car is attached for every five links, so that a parking device that does not produce a useless space in the height direction is configured.

With such a configuration, even in a cage for storing a high-roof vehicle, the dimension H ₁ from the suspension core to the connecting shaft 42 is set in the same manner as in the case of the standard parking device as shown in FIG. As a result, only one intermediate gear is required, and the standard drive unit can be used as it is. In the above description, the vertical circulation type parking device has been described as an example. However, the present invention can be applied to other mechanical parking devices such as a multi-layer circulation type, and is not limited to the vertical circulation type. .

[0021]

As described above, according to the present invention, a standard cage can be used as a cage for a vehicle having a low vehicle height, while an arm can be used for a cage for a vehicle having a high vehicle height. Since only a new member needs to be used for the connecting member for connecting the spaces between the members, an increase in the number of parts can be suppressed to a necessary minimum. In addition, a common device can be used for the driving device itself.
