Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of parking posts, and particularly relates to an automatically lifting parking post with a built-in charging and detection system. Background Art

[0002] Existing patents for public parking charging systems mainly focus on the introduction of public parking charging information management methods. Most of them are based on some relatively intelligent parking charging places with complete management personnel and equipment, specific parking areas, and information transmission support. Mainly, it is through the management personnel to restrict the parking and charging of vehicles, and the equipment used mainly plays the role of verifying and recording vehicle information, and cannot truly restrict the parking and control of vehicles. The final link still comes down to personnel management. This leads to the fact that these system solutions must have a large number of management personnel, specific parking areas, and a large number of monitoring and detection equipment, etc., resulting in a large amount of investment in manpower, equipment, etc. during the specific implementation process, causing a large capital investment and high overall cost. At the same time, the parking area it occupies is relatively large. When there is no vehicle parked, the occupied area cannot be used for road traffic, resulting in a waste of a large amount of resource space.

[0003] From the above content, the following problems exist in the existing public parking charging management solutions:

[0004] 1. On both sides of urban roads, we can often see parking charging personnel holding POS machines, mainly charging manually. The parking of private cars is completely completed by the guidance and management of the charging personnel. However, for the current huge urban traffic volume, this way of no parking facility management and restriction greatly increases the workload and labor cost of the charging personnel, and is very likely to cause management negligence and loopholes of personnel, resulting in various unexpected phenomena. Moreover, there will be great differences in information such as charging basis, charging standard, and the whereabouts of money, causing losses to the government's finances.

[0005] 2. Today, when the proportion of parking spaces to private cars is seriously insufficient, many private car owners install locking devices on the parking spaces privately in order to have a place to park their cars. Therefore, we often see various types of parking space locks installed at roadside parking spaces, especially in some communities where the parking spaces are already occupied by parking space locks. Although this saves a lot of trouble for car owners to park, at the same time, it affects the parking of other car owners due to long-term occupation of public space, resulting in waste of resources. Moreover, most of these parking space locks are manual. When the car owner parks or starts the car, he needs to set it manually, and it is easy to hit the parking space lock, which is likely to damage the car and the parking space lock. It cannot withstand multiple rollings and is easy to deform. At the same time, because most of its structures are triangular, it is easy to bump into the elderly and children, posing a great safety hazard.

[0006] 3. When people travel, they often see some mechanical facilities such as car stoppers and guardrails installed in places like office buildings, public institutions, residential communities, schools, parks and squares. Their function is to restrict random parking of vehicles, achieve the separation of people and vehicles, and ensure a safe activity space for people. However, due to the design of their structure and the installation method, vehicles cannot pass through their areas safely, resulting in a great waste of some space, low resource utilization rate, and increasing the pressure on private car owners' demand for parking spaces, highlighting the shortage of urban parking spaces. People have no parking spaces to park when traveling, which further promotes the phenomenon of random parking. The main reason for such a phenomenon is that some system solutions and facilities for traffic control shown in the existing market can no longer meet the safe, fast and comfortable lifestyle brought to people's travel with the development of society.

[0007] After collecting such mechanical car stoppers available in the current market, it is found that they are mainly divided into the following categories:

[0008] 1. Automatic lifting car stopper: It is divided into an electro-mechanical integrated hydraulic lifting system and a pneumatic lifting system according to the drive method; the electro-mechanical integrated hydraulic system mainly combines electronics, hydraulics and machinery. Through the control circuit, the motor drives the hydraulic pump to operate, and the hydraulic pump drives the hydraulic rod to drive the lifting column to move up and down; the pneumatic lifting system mainly consists of a pneumatic lifting rod, which is opened and closed by manual operation, and it rises and falls automatically. The sizes of both are basically the same in the current market, and the overall dimensions are significantly too large. Moreover, during the construction process, a foundation pit nearly 1m deep needs to be dug. For the former, a hydraulic station also needs to be built, oil pipes need to be laid, and a drainage system needs to be made. It can only be used under the condition of power supply (380V, 220V), and the use environment is limited; the difficulty of road construction increases, and due to the change of the environment where the air pressure and hydraulic pressure are located, the later maintenance is also more cumbersome, and the maintenance cost is relatively high.

[0009] 2. Manual lifting car stopper: The use place of this lifting column is not restricted. It is pulled or compressed by personnel, and the structure is simple, but it cannot complete automatic lifting, the operation is cumbersome, and it cannot meet the needs of specific places. The above equipment cannot achieve full automation control, and its cost is close to 10,000 yuan, so it cannot be widely promoted. Summary of the Invention
