Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention has a board-like lifting pallet capable of mounting a vehicle, and the lifting pallet can be lifted from the ground to a position higher than other vehicles parked on the ground. Regarding the device.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art This type of multi-story parking system has a pillar standing on a floor, a saddle attached vertically movable along the pillar, and a pair of saddle arm saddle arms extending from the saddle to the front of the pillar. , A board-shaped lifting pallet on which a vehicle can be mounted is supported, and the lifting mechanism moves the saddle up and down along columns. The saddle arm is lowered onto the floor by the lifting mechanism, the vehicle is mounted on the lifting pallet with the lifting pallet lowered onto the floor, and after the driver descends from the vehicle, the saddle is raised by the lifting mechanism to lift the lifting pallet. Raise. Then, with the lifting pallet raised from the floor to an appropriate height, another vehicle is parked on the floor below it. When the vehicle on the lifting pallet is to be exited, the vehicle on the floor below it is moved from under the lifting pallet, then the lifting pallet is lowered to the floor position, and then the vehicle is taken out from the lifting pallet.

In such a multi-storey parking lot, since the pillars are erected from the floor surface such as a concrete floor, the floor frame is fixed to the concrete floor with anchor bolts and the pillars are erected from the floor frame. A vehicle parked on the floor in front of the pillar is parked with the front wheels or the rear wheels passing over the floor frame. For this reason, in a normal multi-storey parking lot, a floor pallet is installed in front of the pillars so as to include this floor frame, and a slope is formed in front of and behind the floor pallet so that the vehicle can ride over it. The front and rear wheels can easily get over the floor frame.

When the lifting pallet descends to the bottom, the lifting pallet is placed on the floor pallet. In a conventional multi-level parking device, a saddle arm that supports an elevating pallet moves from the saddle attached to the pillar to the front of the pillar.
That is, since it is extended right above the floor frame, when the lifting pallet descends to the lowest position, the saddle arm supporting this lifting pallet rests on the floor pallet containing the floor frame, and further on it. The lifting pallet will be loaded.

[0005]

However, in the conventional multi-story parking apparatus having the above structure, when the lifting pallet is lowered to the lowest position, the saddle arm is mounted on the floor pallet including the floor frame. Further, since the lifting pallet is placed on it, the step between the vehicle mounting surface of the lifting pallet and the floor becomes high. In order to facilitate the entry and exit of the vehicle onto the lifting pallet, a slope plate having a slope that connects the vehicle mounting surface of the lifting pallet and the floor surface is attached to at least one of the lifting pallets. However, when the lifting pallet is lowered to the lowest position, the board height of the lifting pallet does not become sufficiently low, so the slope of the slope plate must be made steep or the slope length of the slope plate must be increased. I won't. However, there is a problem that it is difficult for the vehicle to get on and off the elevator pallet, and the floor area occupied by the multi-story parking installation becomes large.

In view of the above-mentioned problems in the conventional multi-level parking apparatus, the present invention can reduce the height of the vehicle getting on and off the elevator pallet, thereby reducing the step when the vehicle gets on and off the elevator pallet. By providing a slope plate with a gentler slope and a shorter slope plate, it is possible to easily get on and off a vehicle on an elevator pallet and to provide a multi-level parking device capable of narrowing the floor space occupied by the multi-level parking device. With the goal.

[0007]

To achieve this object, according to the present invention, a pair of saddle arms 12a and 12b supporting the lifting pallet 3 are arranged at positions outside both sides of the floor pallet 6, and these saddle arms are arranged. 12a, 12
When "b" descends onto the floor 15, it is landed outside the floor pallet 6 and the central portion of the lifting pallet 3 supported by them is directly mounted on the floor pallet 6.

That is, the multi-story parking system has columns 1 and 1 standing upright from a floor 15, and slopes 6 and 6 installed on the floor 15 in front of the columns 1 and 1 and on which a vehicle a can ride, on both sides. The floor pallet 5 and the saddle 2 mounted vertically movable along the columns 1 and 1.
And a pair of saddle arms 12a and 12b extending from the saddle 2 to above the floor pallet 6, and a lifting pallet 3 which is supported by the saddle arms 12a and 12b and is formed in a board shape on which a vehicle can be mounted. And a lifting mechanism 20 for lifting the saddles 2 and 2 along the columns 1 and 1.

According to the present invention, in the above-described multi-level parking apparatus, the pair of saddle arms 12a, 12b are arranged outside both sides of the floor pallet 6. Therefore, when the saddle arms 12a and 12b descend onto the floor 15, the saddle arms 12a and 12b land at positions outside the floor pallet 6. The lift pallet 3 supported by the saddle arms 12a and 12b is directly mounted on the floor pallet 6 without the center portion of the lift pallet 3 interposed between the saddle arms 12a and 12b. For example, the floor pallet 5 has a base frame 16 for supporting the columns 1 and 1 in an upright state on the floor 15,
16 are included, so that the columns 1 and 1 are on the floor 1.
It is erected while being fixed to 5.

In such a three-dimensional parking apparatus according to the present invention, when the saddle arms 12a and 12b are lowered onto the floor 15, the saddle arms 12a and 12b land outside the floor pallet 6 and the saddle arms 12a. , 12b are mounted directly on the floor pallet 6 without the saddle arms 12a, 12b being interposed between the central portions of the lifting pallets 3 so that the mounting height of the lifting pallets 3 on the vehicle can be reduced. More specifically, since the floor plate 18 of the lift pallet 3 can be placed directly on the floor pallet 6, the step between the vehicle mounting surface and the floor 15 when the lift pallet 3 is lowered is the floor pallet. The height is 6 plus the thickness of the floor plate 18 of the lifting pallet 3. That is, the step difference is higher than the height of the floor pallet 6 by the thickness of the floor plate 18 of the lifting pallet 3. In other words, it is possible to lower the boarding height to the lifting pallet 3 by the height of the saddle arms 12a and 12b.

The height of the bearing is different from that of the bearing. That is,
The saddle arm 12a on the right side in FIG. 1 supports the lifting pallet 3 at a height substantially below the floor plate 18, while the saddle arm 12b on the left side in FIG. The lifting pallet 3 will be supported at a higher position.

In FIG. 3, the relationship between the floor pallet 5, the saddle arms 12a and 12b, and the lift pallet 3 is shown separately. That is, the saddle arms 12a, 1
The spacing of 2b is wider than the front and rear width of the floor pallet 5, and the saddle arms 12a and 12b are located in the front and rear of the floor pallet 5, respectively, and are outside thereof. This saddle arm 12
The elevating pallet 3 supported by a and 12b has side frames 26 and 26 and recessed portions 13 and 13 formed by cutting the side frames 23 and 23 at a position near the left side in FIG. FIG. 1 shows the left saddle arm 12b.
Is inserted, and its saddle arm 12b has a saddle receiver 14,
The lifting pallet 3 is supported by hitting 14. On the other hand, FIG.
, The right saddle arm 12a has a side frame 26,
It hits the lower surface of 26 and supports the lifting pallet 3.

Next, a method of using the multi-story parking apparatus having such a structure and its operation will be described. The solid lines in FIGS. 1 and 2 show a state in which the lifting pallet 3 is supported by the saddle arms 12a and 12b and the saddles 2 and 2 are raised to a predetermined height. In order to place the vehicle a on the lifting pallet 3 from this state, first, the lifting pallet 3
From this state, the safety lock is released, the motor 11 is activated, and the lifting mechanism 20 including the drum 9, the wire rope 10 wound around it, and the pulleys 7 and 17 is operated, and the saddles 2 and 2 are moved. And lower the saddle arms 12a and 12b to the floor 15 as indicated by the chain double-dashed line.
Lower it. At the height of the saddles 2 and 2 when the saddle arms 12a and 12b descend on the floor 15, for example, the above-mentioned limit switch operates and the motor 11 is stopped.

In this state, the saddle arms 12a, 12
b lands on the floor 15 outside the floor pallet 6, that is, at positions before and after it. The lifting pallet 3 supported by the saddle arms 12a and 12b is also lowered to the floor 15 side, and the central portion thereof is directly mounted on the floor pallet 6. In this state, since the floor plate 18 of the lifting pallet 3 can be placed directly on the floor pallet 6, the vehicle mounting surface of the floor plates 18 and 24 on which the vehicle a rides when the lifting pallet 3 descends and the floor. The step difference from 15 is the height of the floor pallet 6 plus the thickness of the floor plate 18 of the lift pallet 3. The lift pallet 3 is placed on the floor 15 at the same inclination angle as the floor pallet 6, that is, at the same inclination angle as the floor 15.

Further, in this state, the saddle arm 12a on the right side in FIG.
They are on the floor 15 in a state that they are almost in contact with the lower surfaces of the wheels 6 and 26. On the other hand, in FIG. 1, the left saddle arm 12b is separated from the saddle receivers 14 and 14 of the lifting pallet 3 and is disengaged from the recessed portions 13 and 13 below.
I'm on floor 15. On the other hand, the slope plate 4 in the front part of the lifting panel 3 reaches the floor 15 at its tip edge, and the sloped surface of the upper surface of the slope plate 4 connects the floor 15 and the floor plate 18 of the lifting pallet 3 to each other. There is.

In this state, the vehicle a is loaded onto the floor plate 18 of the lift pallet 3 from the slope plate 4 side.
Then, the front wheels of the vehicle are placed on the floor plate 24 on the left side in FIG. 1 over the breaks in the front and rear floor plates 18, 24. At this time, since the upper surface of the left saddle arm 12b in FIG. 1 is located at the cut between the floor plates 18 and 24 and is slightly lower than the vehicle mounting surfaces of the floor plates 18 and 24, the front wheels of the vehicle a are , Floor plate 1
It is possible to easily cross the 8 and 24 cuts. Further, the front wheel of the vehicle a is the floor plate 24 on the left side in FIG.
When it reaches the rear end of the vehicle, it hits the rear wheel stop 25 and stops, so that the vehicle a cannot move backward any further.

In this state, the driver descends from the vehicle a, and thereafter the motor 11 is activated to wind up the wire rope 10 wound around the pulleys 7 and 10, and the saddles 2 and 2 are supported by the pillars 1 and 2.
Raise along 1. Then, as shown in FIG. 4A, first, the saddle arm 12a on the right side in FIG. 1 supports the side frames 26, 26 of the lifting pallet 3 and lifts the lifting panel 3. Therefore, in FIG. 1, only the left side of the elevating panel 3 ascends first, and the elevating panel 3 inclines in an ascending right direction.
At the same time, the saddle arm 12b on the left side in FIG. 1 is provided with a recessed portion 13 which is a cut between the right and left side frames 26, 26 in FIG.
Get in. Then, as shown in FIG. 4 (b), the saddles 2 and 2 are gradually moved upward to move the front and rear saddle arms 12 a and 1 a.
When 2b rises, the saddle arm 1 on the left side in FIG.
2b hits the saddle receiver 14, and from that point, the left and right sides of the lifting pallet 3 in FIG. 1 are also supported by the saddle arm 12b and the lifting is started. Therefore, the elevating pallet 3 is subsequently raised while maintaining a constant inclination angle of rising to the right in FIG.

As is apparent from the above operation, when the lifting pallet 3 is lifted from the floor 15, only one saddle arm 12a side is lifted first, and then the other saddle arm 12b side is delayed. Since the lift pallet 3 is lifted, the lift pallet 3 is lifted with a constant angle being given to the floor 15. Therefore, when the floor 15 has a slope, the saddle arm 12a side therebelow is raised first to adjust the inclination of the floor 15 when the lifting pallet 3 is raised, and to raise or lower a horizontal or nearly horizontal posture. The pallet 3 can be raised and held at a predetermined height.

Further, in this state, as shown in FIG.
In FIG. 1, the saddle arm 12b on the left side enters through the cuts in the front and rear floor plates 18, 24. The saddle arm 12b that has entered through the cuts in the front and rear floor plates 18, 24 is on the right side in FIG. 1 from the front wheel of the vehicle a on the floor plate 24 on the left side in FIG. 1, and serves as a car stop. It has the function of. Therefore, this front wheel is sandwiched between the saddle arm 12b and the rear wheel stop 25, and the forward / backward movement of the vehicle a is completely restricted.

In this way, the elevating pallet 3 rises in a tilted state, and when it reaches a predetermined height as shown by the solid line in FIGS. 1 and 2, the limit switch stops the motor 11 to raise and lower the pallet. The pallet 3 stops at a predetermined height, and the lift pallet 3 is locked by the operation of the stopper described above. After that, the floor 1 directly below the lifting pallet 3
Another vehicle a can be parked on the car 5. This vehicle a
Can be introduced to the parking position such that its front wheels or rear wheels can use the slopes 6, 6 to get over the floor pallet 5.

Thereafter, the vehicle a parked on the lifting pallet 3
When leaving the car, the vehicle a
After moving, the lock is released, the motor 10 is started, the wire rope 10 wound around the pulleys 7 and 17 is unwound, and the drum 9, the wire rope 10 wound around it, and the pulleys 7 and 17 are removed. The lifting mechanism 20 including the above is operated to lower the saddles 2 and 2, and the saddle arms 12a and 12b are lowered onto the floor 15 as indicated by a chain double-dashed line.

At this time, the elevating panel 3 descends with its left side inclining downward in FIG. 1, so that the side frames 26, 26 of the side frames 26, 26 are located on the left saddle arm 1 in FIG.
The side closer to 2b gets on the floor pallet 6 first. Then, when the saddle arms 12a and 12b further descend and land on the floor 15, almost at the same time, the right side of the side frames 26 and 26 of the elevating pallet 3 in FIG. It is mounted on the floor pallet 6. Therefore, at the last landing, the lifting pallet 3 lands on the floor 15 while correcting the inclination of the front downward.

From this state, the vehicle a can be started from the lift pallet 3 by using the slope plate 4 of the lift pallet 3. In the illustrated example, the vehicle a is mounted on the elevating pallet 3 in the forward direction and is retracted in the backward direction. Of course.

[0030]

As described above, in the multi-level parking apparatus according to the present invention, when lowering the lifting pallet 3 onto the floor 15, it is possible to lower the lifting pallet 3 to a lower position. Since it is not necessary to make the slope plate 4 steep, the vehicle a can easily get on and off the elevator pallet 3. Further, since it is not necessary to lengthen the slope plate 4, it is possible to reduce the occupied floor area.
