Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to a bicycle parking device, in particular to an automatic storage and retrieval stereo garage for bicycles. Background Art

[0002] In recent years, the phenomenon of chaotic non-motor vehicle parking has become one of the main issues affecting the city's appearance and urban planning. Due to factors such as unclear parking space demarcation, motor vehicles occupying parking space, unbalanced parking space demarcation and chaotic placement, the problem of non-motor vehicle parking has become increasingly prominent, especially around subway stations and some business districts. The emergence of shared bicycles has directly magnified this problem to the level of a "new urban disease."

[0003] In response to this problem, the invention with application number "201811253298.1" and invention name "Bicycle Parking Garage" provides a bicycle parking garage, including: at least one storage frame, each of which includes multiple storage layers; a lifting device, which is arranged horizontally with the storage frame, and the lifting device includes a mounting frame, a vehicle-carrying platform and a lifting mechanism, the mounting frame is used to provide support for the vehicle-carrying platform, and the vehicle-carrying platform can be lifted and lowered under the drive of the lifting mechanism; a slewing device, which is arranged below the mounting frame, is used to support the mounting frame and can drive the mounting frame to rotate around a vertical axis; wherein the slewing device and the storage frame are both connected to the foundation through anchor bolts. The bicycle parking garage provided by the invention is fixed to the foundation through anchor bolts, which is convenient to construct and significantly reduces the difficulty of on-site assembly.

[0004] However, there is a practical problem with such a bicycle parking garage: in this solution, bicycles are stored and transported in a flat position. Although this simplifies the structure of the parking garage, it causes the entire parking garage to have a huge plane size. This in turn determines that when such a parking garage is set up around subway stations and business districts where every inch of land is valuable, it will incur high land costs. Summary of the invention

[0005] In view of the defects of the prior art, the technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to provide a bicycle automatic storage and retrieval stereo garage, which enables the garage to reliably and conveniently store and retrieve bicycles, while having a more compact structure and higher space utilization, thereby greatly reducing land costs.

[0006] In order to solve the above technical problems, the solution proposed in the present invention is an automatic storage and retrieval stereo garage for bicycles, including a suspension device, a transfer device and a storage frame. The suspension device is installed on the transfer device, and the transfer device is arranged in the storage frame. The suspension device includes a front wheel clamping assembly and a lifting assembly. The lifting assembly drives the front wheel clamping assembly to rise and fall, and the front wheel clamping assembly can clamp or release the front wheel of the bicycle. The storage frame is provided with a cantilever and a hanging assembly. The cantilever is fixed to the storage frame and extends to the inner side of the storage frame to form a cantilever end. The hanging assembly is installed on the cantilever end, and the hanging assembly can extend into or out of the front wheel hub of the bicycle.

[0007] By adopting such a scheme, the bicycles are suspended and transported, and then stored in a vertical suspension manner, which can minimize the space occupied by the bicycles on the plane and effectively reduce the land cost. Specifically, this scheme chooses to use the bicycle front wheel hub suspension method for storage, which fully utilizes the advantage of the suspension device clamping the front wheel to accurately position the front wheel. Even if the vehicle wheel hub has different specifications and sizes, it will naturally find the highest point on the inside of the wheel hub as the suspension point during the suspension process, avoiding the need to set up many sensors to position the bicycle, and also avoiding the need to set up complex mechanisms to fix other parts of the vehicle (such as handlebars and seats), greatly simplifying the overall structure and effectively controlling costs. The setting of the overhanging parts avoids the problem of interference between the distant seats and the storage frame after the bicycle is suspended by the front wheel.

[0008] Furthermore, the hook assembly includes a hook block and a return mechanism, one end of the hook block is movably connected to the suspension, the other end of the hook block is a suspension end, the suspension end extends from the side of the suspension and can be close to or away from the suspension, the return mechanism is installed between the hook block and the suspension, and the return mechanism ensures that the suspension end is as far away from the side of the suspension as possible when not under force. Such a hook assembly can avoid the need to set up a power device, and can achieve the clamping and fixing of the front wheel by relying on its own mechanism.

[0009] Specifically, the hanging support block is rotatably connected to the overhanging member, and the two sides of the end of the hanging support block connected to the overhanging member are arc surfaces. The return mechanism includes a telescopic block and an elastic element. One end of the telescopic block is provided with a receiving groove, and the side of the receiving groove expands outward toward the end to form a trumpet mouth. The hanging support block is against the receiving groove, and the telescopic block is slidably connected to the overhanging member. The elastic element is installed between the telescopic block and the overhanging member. With such a structure, the hanging support block can stably rotate and return in two directions when the bicycle is stored or taken out, making the process of storing and retrieving the bicycle smoother.

[0010] Preferably, the suspension member is two parallel and spaced long strips, both of which are provided with hanging components, and the hanging ends of the hanging blocks on the two long strips are arranged face to face. The structure of the double-sided hanging blocks can further improve the stability and reliability of the hanging structure.

[0011] In addition, the overhanging member also includes a lower overhanging member and a lifting member. The lower overhanging member is L-shaped, and the top end of the lower overhanging member is fixedly connected to the overhanging member. The horizontal portion of the L-shaped lower overhanging member extends to the inner side of the storage frame. The lifting member is installed at the end of the horizontal portion of the lower overhanging member. A double-sided slope structure is provided on the side of the lifting member facing the overhanging member. The provision of the lifting member can, on the one hand, reduce the force on the overhanging member and the hanging support block during the bicycle storage process. On the other hand, after the bicycle is longitudinally suspended, the center of gravity shifts, causing one side of the rear wheel to deviate toward the direction of the transfer device, resulting in compression of the activity space of the transfer device. The double-sided slope structure can form a certain barrier to the rear wheel after the bicycle enters the suspension space, preventing the rear wheel from swinging, and further optimizing the space utilization rate of the garage.

[0012] Furthermore, the transfer device includes a lifting component, which includes a column and a lifting plate. The column is upright at the center of the storage frame, a rack is provided on the column, a avoidance hole is opened in the center of the lifting plate, the lifting plate is sleeved outside the column, a lifting motor and a lifting gear are provided under the lifting plate, the lifting gear is installed on the output shaft of the lifting motor, and the lifting gear is meshed with the rack. The lifting component mainly completes the transfer of the bicycle in the height direction. Since the lifting component needs to lift the entire transfer device, the required force and power are large, so a stable and reliable gear rack transmission is adopted, which is relatively low in cost.

[0013] In addition, the transfer device also includes a dividing component, which includes a dividing gear plate, a mounting plate, a dividing motor and a driving gear. The dividing gear plate is rotatably mounted above the lifting plate, the mounting plate is fixedly mounted above the dividing gear plate, the axes of the lifting plate, the dividing gear plate and the mounting plate coincide, the dividing motor is fixedly mounted below the lifting plate, the output shaft of the dividing motor passes through the lifting plate, the driving gear is mounted on the output shaft of the dividing motor, and the driving gear is meshed with the dividing gear plate. The design of placing the dividing component on the lifting plate realizes the transfer of bicycles in the circumferential direction, effectively reducing the complexity of the bicycle storage frame, and the structure is close to the circular shape of the bicycle storage frame, which can shorten the travel of the bicycle in adjacent hanging positions, and is energy-saving and reliable.

[0014] The automatic bicycle storage and retrieval stereo garage of this scheme also includes at least one set of telescopic components, and any set of telescopic components includes a linear module and a lifting seat plate. The linear module is installed along the radial direction of the mounting plate, and the lifting seat plate is fixed to the power output end of the linear module. The telescopic components complete the horizontal transportation of bicycles. The possible existence of multiple sets of telescopic components in conjunction with the indexing components can greatly improve the storage and retrieval efficiency of vehicles, and can well handle traffic flow in peak areas and peak periods.

[0015] Furthermore, the lifting assembly includes a lifting plate, a rear wheel clamping assembly and a synchronous belt module. The lifting plate is vertically mounted on the lifting seat plate. The rear wheel clamping assembly includes a first power clamping member and a first clamping block. The first clamping block has two pieces. The two first clamping blocks are mounted on the power output end of the first power clamping member. The first power clamping member is fixed to the lifting plate. The synchronous belt module is arranged along the length direction of the lifting plate. The front wheel clamping assembly is mounted on the power output end of the synchronous belt module. The synchronous belt module can accurately control the lifting height of the vehicle. The design of the rear wheel clamping assembly prevents the vehicle from shaking left and right when in a suspended state.

[0016] Specifically, the front wheel clamping assembly includes a seat body, a second power clamping member and a second clamping block, the second power clamping member is mounted on the seat body, and there are two second clamping blocks, which are mounted on the power output end of the second power clamping member. Such a front wheel clamping assembly, in conjunction with the hooking assembly, effectively completes the suspension and hooking of the vehicle, avoiding the cost pressure caused by the complicated structure.

[0017] In summary, such an automatic bicycle storage and retrieval stereoscopic garage enables the garage to store and retrieve bicycles reliably and conveniently, while having a more compact structure and higher space utilization, thus greatly reducing land costs.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0027] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention more clearly understood, the present invention is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0028] A bicycle automatic storage and retrieval stereoscopic garage comprises a suspension device 1, a transfer device 2 and a bicycle storage frame 3. The suspension device 1 is installed on the transfer device 2, and the transfer device 2 is arranged in the bicycle storage frame 3. The suspension device 1 comprises a front wheel clamping assembly 11 and a lifting assembly 12. The lifting assembly 12 drives the front wheel clamping assembly 11 to rise and fall. The front wheel clamping assembly 11 can clamp or release the front wheel of the bicycle. The bicycle storage frame 3 is provided with a suspension member 31 and a hanging assembly 32. The suspension member 31 is fixed to the bicycle storage frame 3 and extends to the inner side of the bicycle storage frame 3 to form a suspension end. The hanging assembly 32 is installed on the suspension end. The hanging assembly 32 can extend into or out of the front wheel hub of the bicycle.

[0029] By adopting such a scheme, the bicycle is suspended and transported, and then stored in a vertical suspension manner, which can minimize the space occupied by the bicycle on the plane and effectively reduce the land cost. Specifically, in this scheme, the bicycle front wheel hub suspension method is selected for storage, which fully utilizes the advantage of the suspension device 1 to accurately position the front wheel after clamping the front wheel. Even if the vehicle wheel hub has different specifications and sizes, it will naturally find the highest point on the inside of the wheel hub as the suspension point during the suspension process, avoiding the setting of many sensors to position the bicycle, and also avoiding the setting of complex mechanisms to fix other positions of the vehicle (such as handlebars and seats), greatly simplifying the overall structure, and effectively controlling costs. The setting of the overhanging member 31 avoids the problem of interference between the distant seat and the storage frame 3 after the bicycle is suspended by the front wheel.

[0030] Furthermore, the hook assembly 32 includes a hook block 321 and a return mechanism 322. One end of the hook block 321 is movably connected to the suspension member 31. The other end of the hook block 321 is a suspension end. The suspension end extends from the side of the suspension member 31 and can be close to or away from the suspension member 31. The return mechanism 322 is installed between the hook block 321 and the suspension member 31. The return mechanism 322 ensures that the suspension end is as far away from the side of the suspension member 31 as possible when no force is applied. Such a hook assembly 32 can avoid the need for a power device, and can achieve the insertion and fixation of the front wheel by relying on its own mechanism.

[0031] Specifically, the support block 321 is rotatably connected to the overhanging member 31, and the two sides of the end of the support block 321 connected to the overhanging member 31 are arc surfaces. The return mechanism 322 includes a telescopic block 323 and an elastic element 324. One end of the telescopic block 323 is provided with a receiving groove 325, and the side of the receiving groove 325 expands outward toward the end to form a trumpet mouth. The support block 321 is against the receiving groove 325, and the telescopic block 323 is slidably connected to the overhanging member 31. The elastic element 324 is installed between the telescopic block 323 and the overhanging member 31. With such a structure, the support block 321 can stably rotate and return in two directions when the bicycle is stored or taken out, making the storage and retrieval process smoother.

[0032] Preferably, the suspension member 31 is two parallel and spaced long strips, both of which are provided with a hanging assembly 32, and the hanging ends of the hanging brackets 321 on the two long strips are arranged face to face. The structure of the double-sided hanging brackets 321 can further improve the stability and reliability of the hanging structure.

[0033] In addition, the overhanging member 31 also includes a lower overhanging member 311 and a lifting member 312. The lower overhanging member 311 is L-shaped. The top of the lower overhanging member 311 is fixedly connected to the overhanging member 31. The horizontal part of the L-shaped lower overhanging member 311 extends to the inner side of the bicycle storage frame 3. The lifting member 312 is installed at the end of the horizontal part of the lower overhanging member 311. The lifting member 312 is provided with a double-sided slope structure 313 on the side facing the overhanging member 31. The setting of the lifting member 312 can, on the one hand, reduce the force on the overhanging member 31 and the hanging support block 321 during the bicycle storage process. On the other hand, after the bicycle is longitudinally suspended, the center of gravity shifts, causing one side of the rear wheel to deviate toward the transfer device 2, resulting in compression of the activity space of the transfer device 2. The double-sided slope structure 313 can form a certain blockage for the rear wheel after the bicycle enters the suspension space to prevent the rear wheel from swinging, thereby further optimizing the space utilization rate of the garage.

[0034] Furthermore, the transfer device 2 includes a lifting assembly 21, which includes a column 211 and a lifting plate 212. The column 211 is upright at the center of the storage frame 3, and a rack 213 is provided on the column 211. A avoidance hole 214 is opened in the center of the lifting plate 212. The lifting plate 212 is sleeved outside the column 211. A lifting motor 215 and a lifting gear 216 are provided below the lifting plate 212. The lifting gear 216 is installed on the output shaft of the lifting motor 215, and the lifting gear 216 is meshed with the rack 213. The lifting assembly 21 mainly completes the transportation of the bicycle in the height direction. Since the lifting assembly 21 needs to lift the entire transfer device 2, the required force and power are large, so a stable and reliable gear rack 213 transmission is adopted, which is relatively low in cost.

[0035] In addition, the transfer device 2 also includes a dividing assembly 22, which includes a dividing gear plate 221, a mounting plate 222, a dividing motor 223 and a driving gear 224. The dividing gear plate 221 can be rotatably mounted above the lifting plate 212, and the mounting plate 222 is fixedly mounted above the dividing gear plate 221. The axes of the lifting plate 212, the dividing gear plate 221 and the mounting plate 222 coincide with each other. The dividing motor 223 is fixedly mounted below the lifting plate 212. The output shaft of the dividing motor 223 passes through the lifting plate 212. The driving gear 224 is mounted on the output shaft of the dividing motor 223, and the driving gear 224 is meshed with the dividing gear plate 221. The design of designing the dividing assembly 22 on the lifting plate 212 realizes the transfer of bicycles in the circumferential direction, effectively reduces the complexity of the bicycle storage frame 3, and the structure is close to the circular shape of the bicycle storage frame 3, which can shorten the travel of the bicycle in the adjacent hanging position, and is energy-saving and reliable.

[0036] The automatic bicycle storage and retrieval stereo garage of this solution also includes at least one set of telescopic components 4, and any set of telescopic components 4 includes a linear module 41 and a lifting seat plate 42. The linear module 41 is installed along the radial direction of the mounting plate 222, and the lifting seat plate 42 is fixed to the power output end of the linear module 41. The telescopic components 4 complete the horizontal transportation of bicycles. The possible existence of multiple sets of telescopic components 4 cooperates with the indexing components 22, which can greatly improve the storage and retrieval efficiency of vehicles and can well handle the traffic flow in peak areas and peak periods.

[0037] Furthermore, the lifting assembly 12 includes a lifting plate 121, a rear wheel clamping assembly 122 and a synchronous belt module 123. The lifting plate 121 is vertically mounted on the lifting seat plate 42. The rear wheel clamping assembly 122 includes a first power clamping member 124 and a first clamping block 125. The first clamping block 125 has two pieces. The two first clamping blocks 125 are mounted on the power output end of the first power clamping member 124. The first power clamping member 124 is fixed on the lifting plate 121. The synchronous belt module 123 is arranged along the length direction of the lifting plate 121. The front wheel clamping assembly 11 is mounted on the power output end of the synchronous belt module 123. The synchronous belt module 123 can accurately control the lifting height of the vehicle. The design of the rear wheel clamping assembly 122 prevents the vehicle from shaking left and right in a suspended state.

[0038] Specifically, the front wheel clamping assembly 11 includes a seat body 111, a second power clamping member 112 and a second clamping block 113. The second power clamping member 112 is mounted on the seat body 111. There are two second clamping blocks 113, which are mounted on the power output end of the second power clamping member 112. Such a front wheel clamping assembly 11, in conjunction with the hook assembly 32, effectively completes the suspension and hooking of the vehicle, avoiding the cost pressure caused by the complicated structure.

[0039] In summary, this type of automatic bicycle storage and retrieval stereoscopic garage enables the garage to store and retrieve bicycles reliably and conveniently, while having a more compact structure and higher space utilization, greatly reducing land costs.
