Energy-efficient and smooth operation of a vertical rotating vehicle parking system with exploitation of gravitational dynamic energy

Abstract

The present invention relates to a system for energy-efficient and smooth operation of a vertical rotating vehicle parking system which includes an integrated frequency converter (5) electrically connected to the electric motor (3), which allows a controlled acceleration and deceleration profile with parametrically adjustable ramps and a stabilized intermediate speed, reducing wear, noise and increasing the system's lifespan. The system monitors in real time the load distribution across all platforms, calculating the required torque and selecting the optimal rotation path to minimize energy consumption. Additionally, it utilizes the surplus energy generated from the downward motion due to gravity, by storing it in supercapacitors and accumulators (9,10) or directly feeding other systems. Finally, it ensures that the downward motion does not evolve into free fall, continuously monitoring torque, speed and acceleration, with automatic braking in case of deviation, ensuring smooth, safe and energy-efficient operation.
