Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention is applied to a multi-story parking facility capable of vertically parking a plurality of vehicles in a narrow space, an elevator for construction work for raising and lowering a plurality of pallets in a single hoistway, and the like. And a suitable elevator pallet type elevator device and a three-dimensional parking facility.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art In recent years, it has become more and more common to own a plurality of vehicles in a general household, and accordingly, it is becoming difficult to secure a parking place. For this reason, various multi-story parking facilities have been proposed that allow each home to be parked in two tiers. Generally, such an upper and lower two-stage parking facility is provided with a pallet that can be raised and lowered, a vehicle placed on this pallet is raised to the second floor, and other vehicles are stored in the space formed on the first floor at this time. It is like this.

However, in the multi-level parking facility of the type in which the pallet is simply moved up and down in this way, when the vehicle A is on the first floor and the vehicle B is on the second floor, there is no problem when the vehicle A on the first floor is first put out. In order to take out the vehicle B on the second floor first, the vehicle A on the first floor is once moved out of the parking facility and stopped, and then the pallet on the second floor is lowered to the first floor. After getting out of the car, the driver transfers to the vehicle A again and puts the previously released vehicle A into the garage,
Further, it is necessary to change to the vehicle B. This requires a lot of time and effort, especially in bad weather such as rain. In addition, when the front road is narrow, it is difficult to get in and out, and this difficult work is doubled, and the vehicle A must be stopped at a place that does not obstruct the passage of traffic. If it ’s farther,
Time and labor are doubled.

Therefore, for example, in Japanese Utility Model Laid-Open No. 4-72159, a pallet on the second floor that can move up and down and a pallet on the first floor that can move laterally are provided, and when a vehicle placed on the pallet on the second floor is put out, There has been proposed an elevator pallet elevator apparatus in which a pallet on the second floor is moved to the side to lower the pallet on the second floor. Therefore, in this parking facility, it is possible to take out the vehicle on the second floor without temporarily taking out the vehicle on the first floor.

[0005]

However, in the conventional elevator pallet type elevator apparatus as described above, the pallet on the first floor is moved to the side when the vehicle on the second floor is taken out, as described above. Adjacent land for moving pallets is required on the side of the equipment, and the meaning of making the parking lot three-dimensional becomes meaningless. Moreover, there is a problem in that the pallet will be moved to the ground adjacent to this adjacent ground, and the effective use of the adjacent ground cannot be achieved at all.

Such a problem similarly occurs in an elevator for construction work. That is, even when a plurality of pallets (or baskets) move up and down a single hoistway, the upper pallet and the lower pallet cannot be exchanged in the single hoistway. In order to solve the problem, it is necessary to move one of the pallets sideways to the side on the first floor, which requires a large retractable space.

Therefore, in view of the conventional problems, the present invention provides an elevator pallet type elevator apparatus capable of exchanging the pallets arranged above and below without requiring an evacuation space on the first floor or the entrance floor of the vehicle. The purpose is to provide a three-dimensional parking facility.

[0008]

In order to achieve the above object, the present invention is an elevator pallet type elevator apparatus provided with a plurality of pallet devices which are vertically movable along a support frame extending in the longitudinal direction. A laterally movable frame that is laterally movable at an intermediate position of the support frame, the laterally movable frame including a plurality of laterally movable racks that are alternatively aligned with a fixed rack that is vertically fixed to the support frame. The pallet device is provided with a climbing mechanism capable of moving up and down along the fixed rack or the laterally moving rack, and a pallet supported so as to be laterally movable with respect to the climbing mechanism (claim 1). .

Further, the present invention is a three-dimensional parking facility comprising a plurality of pallet devices which are arranged so as to be able to move up and down along a vertically extending support frame, and which is at an intermediate position of the support frame except the entry floor of the vehicle. A laterally movable frame that is laterally movable, the laterally moving frame including a plurality of laterally moving racks that are alternatively aligned with a fixed rack that is vertically fixed to the support frame, It is characterized by comprising a climbing mechanism capable of moving up and down along a fixed rack or a laterally moving rack, and a pallet supported so as to be laterally movable with respect to the climbing mechanism and capable of mounting a vehicle (claim 2).

In the elevator pallet type elevator device or the three-dimensional parking facility described above, after moving the pallet device to one of the laterally moving racks aligned with the fixed rack,
By moving the laterally moving frame laterally and aligning the other laterally moving rack with the fixed rack, another pallet device can be moved up and down along the other laterally moving rack without interfering with the pallet device.

And a gear 11 connected to the drive shaft thereof meshes with the rack 8. The two laterally moving racks 7a and 7b are arranged such that, when one of the laterally moving racks 7a and 7b is located substantially on the center line of the support frame 1, the other laterally moving racks 7b and 7a.
Are arranged at a predetermined interval so as to approach any of the H-shaped steels 1a.

A fixed rack 13 extending in the vertical direction is fixed to the horizontal connecting member 1b except for the horizontal moving racks 7a and 7b of the horizontal moving frame 3 substantially on the center line of the supporting frame 1. By driving the lateral movement motor 9, the two lateral movement racks 7a and 7b are selectively aligned with the fixed rack 13 to form a continuous rack from the lower stage to the upper stage.

Fixed rack 13 and laterally moving racks 7a, 7
The climbing mechanism 15 is engaged with each of b. The climbing mechanism 15 includes a climbing frame 15a having a substantially U-shaped horizontal cross section that extends in the vertical direction, and a climbing frame 15a that extends horizontally inward from a lower portion of the climbing frame 15a and horizontally supports a pallet 17 for mounting on a vehicle. And a support 15b. The climbing motor 1 is provided above the climbing frame 15a.
The rack gear 8 is fixed and is connected to the drive shaft of the climbing motor 18 via the speed reduction mechanism 19 and meshes with the rack (the fixed rack 13, the laterally moving rack 7a or 7b). Therefore, by driving the climbing motor 18, the climbing frame 15a and the climbing support base 15b are integrally moved up and down along the rack. The climbing frame 15a has a plurality of guide rollers 23, which are provided around the rack (fixed rack 13, laterally moving racks 7a and 7b) to stabilize the lifting operation.
23 is rotatably supported.

A motor 25 for lateral movement of the pallet is fixed to the climbing support 15b, a driven gear 29 is meshed with a drive gear 27 connected to the drive shaft of the motor 25, and the driven gear 29 is the pallet. A rack 31 is meshed with the bottom of the rack 17 extending in the lateral direction orthogonal to the forward / backward direction of the vehicle. Therefore, by driving the pallet lateral movement motor 25, the pallet 17 moves laterally.
A guide rail 33 having a U-shaped cross section is fixed to the outside of the rack 31 at the bottom of the pallet 17 and extends in parallel with the rack 31. The guide rail 33 has a climbing frame 15a.
A guide roller 35 pivotally supported on the pallet engages with the pallet 17 to stabilize the lateral movement of the pallet 17.

An auxiliary rack 37 extending in parallel with the laterally moving racks 7a and 7b is fixed to the inside of the climbing frame 15a, and an elevating block 39 which can be moved up and down along the auxiliary rack 37 is arranged to move up and down. A gear (not shown) that meshes with the auxiliary rack 37 and an auxiliary motor 41 that rotationally drives the gear are provided in the block 39. The link arm 43 is provided inside the lifting block 39.
Is rotatably supported at its upper end, and the lower end of the link arm 43 is rotatably supported at the upper end of a slide plate 47 slidable along a lateral long hole 45 formed in a side portion of the pallet 17. There is. Therefore, the climbing support base 1
By driving the motor 25 of 5b and the auxiliary motor 41 in synchronization, the lateral movement of the pallet 17 can be further stabilized.

When the link arms 43 are on both sides of the pallet 17, at least one of the link arms 4 is
No. 3 is designed not to become an obstacle when the vehicle is taken in and out. That is, the outermost end of the long hole 45 is a widened portion 45a having a width that widens downward, and the upper end of the link arm 43 is independent of the lifting block 39 and the pallet lateral movement motor 25 in synchronization. The vehicle is allowed to travel through the front of the pallet 17 (on the left front side in FIG. 1) by lowering the link arm 43 and lowering the link arm 43 to position the slide plate 47 on the widened portion 45a.

Such a three-dimensional parking facility is shown in FIG.
By the operation shown in (d), the two pallets 17 are switched in the vertical direction.

(A) shows a state in which the first pallet A located above is raised along the fixed rack 13 by the climbing mechanism 15. At this time, one of the lateral movement frames 3 in the middle stage (nF) (right side in the figure)
The laterally moving rack 7b is aligned with the fixed rack 13.
(B) shows a state in which the first pallet A is stopped at nF, and by driving the lateral movement motor 9 in this state, the lateral movement frame 3, the climbing mechanism 15, and the pallet 17 are moved to the right in the figure. Start lateral movement. (C) shows a state in which these lateral movements are completed and the other laterally moving rack 7a (left side in the drawing) is aligned with the fixed rack 13, and the lateral moving motor 25 and the auxiliary motor 41 are driven in this state. As a result, the pallet 17 starts moving laterally to the right in the figure with respect to the climbing mechanism 15. (D) shows a state in which the first pallet A has retreated laterally at nF and has evacuated, and the second pallet B located below has risen along the fixed rack 13 by the climbing mechanism 15. Shows.

At this time, since the climbing mechanism 15 of the second pallet B will move up along the other laterally moving rack 7a of the laterally moving frame 3 when passing through the nF, the first pallet A and The two can be interchanged without interfering with each other.

Next, the entry / exit operation of the vehicle will be described with reference to FIG.

First, in a standby state where no vehicle is mounted on any pallet, the first pallet A is at the lower stage and the second pallet B is at the middle stage, and each pallet is empty. (A). In this state, the first
The first vehicle is moved into the pallet A, but the second pallet B located in the middle stage is empty (b). At this time, when the support frames 1 are on both sides of the pallet in the vehicle entry direction, the entry side link arm 43 is tilted in the above-described procedure so as not to obstruct the entry. Further, when the support frame 1 is provided at one place, as shown in FIG.
It goes without saying that the support frame 1 is located at the back of the garage. In this case, the pallet can be laterally moved depending on whether the steering wheel of the entering vehicle is the right steering wheel or the left steering wheel so that the driver can easily get off the vehicle after entering the pallet.

In order to park the second vehicle while the first vehicle is parked, the first pallet A and the second pallet B are raised along the fixed rack 13 and the respective climbing mechanisms 15 are moved. Fixed rack 13 to laterally moving rack 7
Transfer to "a" and stop the ascending with the first pallet A positioned in the middle stage (c). Horizontal movement frame 3 in this state
Of the first pallet A located in the middle stage is engaged with the laterally moving rack 7b.
With the fixed rack 13 (d). Then, the second pallet B is lowered along the laterally moving rack 7b and the fixed rack 13 to be positioned at the lower stage (e), and the first pallet A is laterally moved to the original position (f), By mounting the second vehicle on the second pallet B in the same manner as the first vehicle, the two vehicles are parked in a three-dimensional manner (g).

Next, from the state of FIG. 3 (g) in which the first and second vehicles are parked on the first and second pallets A and B in a three-dimensional manner, the second vehicle comes out first, and then the When the vehicle of No. 1 leaves the vehicle, it is operated as shown in FIGS.

That is, when the second vehicle leaves the second pallet B located in the lower stage, the first pallet A in which the first vehicle is parked is located in the middle stage (h). In order to lower the first pallet A located in the middle tier to the lower tier, first, the first and second pallets A and B are simultaneously raised to position the first pallet A in the upper tier and The pallet B of is placed in the middle stage (i). Next, the lateral movement frame 3 is laterally moved to move the empty second pallet B located in the middle stage (j). Then, the first pallet A in which the first vehicle is parked is lowered from the upper stage to the lower stage (k), and the second pallet B located in the middle stage is returned to the original position, resulting in the state of (b). , If the first vehicle is unloaded from the first pallet A located at the lower stage (a)
The standby state shown in (1) is entered.

On the other hand, FIG. 5 (g) shows the case where the first vehicle is first exited from the state in which the first and second vehicles in FIG. 3 (g) are three-dimensionally parked on the first and second pallets A and B. It will be described step by step with a) to (d). First, the first pallet A on the upper stage and the second pallet B on the lower stage are both raised, and the first pallet A is positioned on the upper stage and the second pallet B is positioned on the middle stage (a). Then, the second pallet B located in the middle tier is moved laterally (b), the first pallet A located in the upper tier is lowered to the lower tier (c), and then the first pallet A located in the lower tier is moved. Depart the first vehicle (d).

In FIG. 5 (d), the second pallet B is used.
Is in a state of moving laterally, and if there is no plan to leave the second vehicle from this state, it is better to return the second pallet B to the original position by scheduling the first vehicle to enter. Good.

On the other hand, the case in which the second vehicle is discharged after the first vehicle will be described step by step with reference to FIGS. 6 (a) to 6 (d). The first pallet A, which has become empty when the second pallet B is moved in the lateral direction, is lifted to the upper stage (a),
The second pallet B is returned to the original position (b). At this time, the second pallet B is positioned in the middle stage. Then
The first pallet A at the upper stage and the second pallet B at the middle stage are both lowered to position the first pallet A at the middle stage and the second pallet B at the lower stage (c). As a result, the second vehicle is ready to leave. When the second vehicle leaves the second pallet B located at the lower stage, both the first and second pallets A and B become empty (d).
At this time, the standby state of FIG.
The second pallets A and B are turned upside down. In this state, the vehicle may be loaded into the second pallet B and then the upper and lower positions of the first pallet A may be exchanged, or the first pallet A may be moved to the first pallet A before loading. , The second pallets A and B can be exchanged.

By the way, the operations shown in FIGS. 3 (i) to 3 (l) can be replaced with the operations shown in FIGS. 7 (a) to 7 (e).
The operation of FIGS. 9A to 9E will be described below in order. After the second vehicle has exited from the second pallet B located at the lower stage in FIG. 3 (h), the first pallet A in which the first vehicle is parked is moved laterally (a) and becomes empty. Then, the second pallet B is raised to the upper stage (b). Then, the first pallet A is laterally moved and returned to the original position, and in this state, the first pallet A is located in the middle stage and the second pallet B is located in the upper stage (c). Then, the first and second pallets A and B are lowered together, the first pallet A is located in the lower stage, and the second pallet B is located in the middle stage, so that the first vehicle is located in the lower stage and is exited. The state becomes possible (d). When the first vehicle leaves the first pallet A, the same state as in FIG. 3 (l) is obtained (e).

The operations of FIGS. 3 (c) to 3 (f) can be replaced with the operations of FIGS. 8 (a) to 8 (d), and the operations of FIGS. I will explain later. The empty second pallet B in the middle tier is moved laterally (a), and the first pallet A in which the first vehicle in the lower tier is parked is lifted to the upper tier (b). Then, the second pallet B
To the original position again (c), and the second pallet B in the middle tier and the first pallet A in the upper tier are both lowered to position the second pallet B in the lower tier and The pallet A of No. 1 is positioned in the middle stage (d). In this state, the empty second pallet B is positioned in the lower stage, and the second vehicle enters the standby state in which the second vehicle is stored.

Here, at night, etc.,
If the second vehicle is not scheduled to leave, it is desirable to lift the first and second pallets A and B to the middle and upper stages in order to prevent tampering with the vehicle. In this case, if the first pallet A is located on the upper stage, the second pallet B is
Can be raised to the middle stage and stopped. On the other hand, when the first pallet A is located in the middle stage,
The second pallet B may be lifted up to the upper stage along the fixed rack 13 and the laterally moving rack 7b to empty the lower stage without moving the laterally moving frame 3, or the laterally moving frame 3 may be temporarily moved laterally. After the first pallet A is lifted up to the upper stage, the horizontal moving frame 3 may be horizontally moved to the original position to lift the second pallet B up to the middle stage. This selection depends on which vehicle is to be delivered next.

Therefore, in the multi-story parking facility of this embodiment, the vehicles are parked on the first and second pallets A and B, which are arranged one above the other, so that the space for about one vehicle can be obtained. One vehicle can be parked. Then, the first and second pallets A and B are racked via the climbing mechanism 15 (fixed rack 13, laterally moving racks 7a, 7).
b), and since at least one of the first and second pallets A and B is laterally moved in the middle stage, the vertical position of these first and second pallets A and B can be changed. It can be replaced in the middle part. Therefore, even when the vehicle is parked on the pallet 17 located in the lower stage,
The vehicle in the middle stage or the upper stage can be lowered to the lower stage and discharged without temporarily leaving the lower stage vehicle.

Further, when the upper and lower positions of the first and second pallets A and B are interchanged, one of the first and second pallets A and B is laterally moved in the middle stage. When the pallet A or the second pallet B is extended to the adjacent ground, a space for the lower stage is provided between the adjacent ground and the pallet. Therefore, it is possible to effectively use the low-rise portion of the adjacent land, for example, to provide an approach from the gate to the entrance as shown in FIG. 4, or to provide a flowerbed, a storage door, and the like.

By the way, the first and second pallets A and B can be raised and lowered and extended laterally by remote control operation from inside the house or from inside the vehicle. in this case,
It is necessary to ensure safety when children are playing near the parking facility.There is a remote control gate at the entrance of the garage, a TV monitor is installed, and an alarm sound is generated during pallet operation. Or it is desirable to automatically stop the pallet due to obstacles.

Further, when the upper and lower positions of the first and second pallets A and B are interchanged, if the pallet located in the middle tier is empty, the first pallet A is not raised to the upper tier and It is better to stop on the way.

Further, it goes without saying that the forward / backward direction of the vehicle is not limited to the above-mentioned outline arrow direction and may be a direction orthogonal to this. In this case, of course, it is not necessary to attach and detach the link arm 43 when the vehicle enters and leaves.

Furthermore, if the complexity of loading and unloading the vehicle is allowed to some extent, the three floors of the vehicle can be constructed by providing a floor structure in which the pallet-free first floor can be used for entry of the vehicle. You can park.

In the above embodiment, the entry floor of the vehicle is set to the first floor, but it is of course possible to use any floor above the second floor, or the basement floor.

Next, another embodiment will be described.

FIG. 9 shows a modification of the above embodiment in which the auxiliary rack 37, the elevating block 39, the link arm 43, and the slide plate 47 can be omitted.
That is, in this embodiment, the pair of rotatable lower guide rollers 4 disposed on the left and right with the driven gear 29 meshing with the rack 31 provided on the bottom of the pallet 17 interposed therebetween.
9 and 49, and a pair of upper guide rollers 51 and 51 that are opposed to each other so as to sandwich the pallet 17 in the vertical direction between the lower guide rollers 49 and 49. A total of four guide rollers 4 thus arranged on the vertical plane.
Since 9 and 51 are provided on the front and rear support frames 1 and 1, respectively, smooth lateral movement and stable support of the pallet 17 can be achieved, and at the same time, the pallet 17 of the vehicle can be supported.
A troublesome operation such as attaching and detaching the link arm 43 at the time of moving in and out of becomes unnecessary.

FIG. 10 shows a second embodiment. In this embodiment, the support frame 1 is provided only on the rear side in the advancing / retreating direction of the vehicle, and the support frame on the front side in the advancing / retreating direction in the first embodiment is omitted. As a configuration for enabling the omission of such a support frame, an auxiliary gear 53 is rotatably supported by the inside of the upper part of the climbing frame 15a and is reinforced by a diagonal member 55a at the rear end of the pallet 17. The hollow rectangular reinforcing frame 55 is integrally raised and fixed, and the rack 55b formed on the bottom surface of the upper portion of the reinforcing frame 55 is meshed with the auxiliary gear 53. In addition, the horizontal movement frame 3
A rack 57 is also formed on the rear surface of the upper piece, and a gear 58a of a second horizontal movement motor 58 fixed on the horizontal connecting member 1b of the support frame 1 is meshed with the rack 57. In the present embodiment, the climbing motor is not shown.

Thus, even when the support frame 1 is used as one and the pallet 17 on which the vehicle is mounted is laterally moved outward, the driven gear 29 and the auxiliary gear 53 that support the pallet 17 are vertically separated from each other. Therefore, even in a cantilever state, smooth lateral movement and stable support can be achieved.

As a result, not only the same effect as that of the first embodiment can be obtained, but also one support frame 1 (fixed rack 13, laterally moving racks 7a and 7b, laterally moving frame 3,
The components such as the climbing mechanism 15), the auxiliary rack 37, the lifting block 39, the link arm 43, and the like can be significantly reduced, and, like the modified embodiment of the first embodiment, the link is used when the vehicle enters or leaves. No need for troublesome operations such as attaching and detaching the arm.

FIG. 11 shows a third embodiment. In this embodiment, two parallel guide rails 59 having a U-shaped cross section, which are orthogonal to the advancing / retreating direction of the vehicle, are fixed to the bottom of the pallet 17 at predetermined intervals so that the openings face each other. On the other hand, on the climbing support base 15b, the guide rails
A pair of guide rollers 61, 61 arranged apart from each other in the extension direction of 9, 59 are rotatably supported.

According to this embodiment, the reinforcing frame 55 of the pallet 17 in the second embodiment can be omitted, but a total of four pallets 17 are mounted even when the pallet 17 on which the vehicle is mounted is laterally moved to the outside. Guide roller 61,
Since 61 is arranged on a horizontal plane, smooth lateral movement and stable support can be achieved.

In the above embodiment, the case where the number of pallets that can be moved up and down along the support frame is two is shown as an example. However, the number of pallets may be three or more, and the number of pallets is not limited to a multilevel parking lot. It can also be applied to an elevator for construction work in which a plurality of pallets are raised and lowered in a hoistway.

If the design and construction of the underground portion is relatively easy, the third floor portion is the ground surface portion, the second floor portion is the first basement floor, and the first floor portion is the second basement floor. You may go.

[0049]

As described above, in the elevator pallet type elevator apparatus of the present invention, the pallets arranged above and below can be replaced without the need for an evacuation space on the first floor. It is suitable for use in an elevator for construction work in which a plurality of pallets are moved up and down in the hoistway.

Further, in the three-dimensional parking facility of the present invention, the same effect as that of the above-described invention can be obtained without the need for a retreat space on the entry floor of the vehicle.
