For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in the embodiments of the present invention can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0042] like Figures 1 to 12 As shown, an embodiment of the present invention provides a parking system, including a parking bracket 100 , a support plate 200 , a parking rack 500 and at least two parking devices 400 .

[0043] The parking bracket 100 is erected on the ground, and the support plate 200 is horizontally erected on the parking bracket 100. The support plate 200 is used to support the vehicle 300. The parking device 400 can move horizontally on the ground. The parking device 400 includes a shell 410 and a jacking assembly 420 located in the shell 410. The jacking assembly 420 can be retracted in the vertical direction and can jack up the support plate 200 supporting the vehicle 300 when extending upward. The parking rack 500 is erected on the ground. The bottom layer and the top layer of the parking rack 500 can support the support plate 200. The parking device 400 is configured to be able to transfer the support plate 200 supporting the vehicle 300 between the parking bracket 100 and the parking rack 500.

[0044] It can be understood that the vehicle 300 to be parked can first drive to the parking bracket 100 and park the vehicle 300 on the support plate 200, and then the parking device 400 moves to the bottom of the support plate 200 at the parking bracket 100, and the jacking assembly 420 in the parking device 400 lifts up the support plate 200 and the vehicle 300 on the support plate 200, and then the parking device 400 can move to the parking rack 500 and transfer the support plate 200 supporting the vehicle 300 to the bottom or top layer of the parking rack 500.

[0045] Specifically, when the top layer of the parking rack 500 is placed with a support plate 200 supporting the vehicle 300, one of the parking devices 400 can move to the parking rack 500 and lift up the support plate 200 on the bottom layer to temporarily move the support plate 200 out of the parking rack 500, and then another parking device 400 moves to the parking rack 500 and lifts up the support plate 200 on the top layer supporting the vehicle 300 and moves the support plate back to the parking bracket 100, and finally, the previous parking device 400 can move the lifted support plate 200 back to the parking rack 500. The parking system of the present invention can park the vehicle 300 on either or both the bottom layer and the top layer of the parking rack 500, which is more convenient to use, and can conveniently and quickly access the top layer vehicle 300 when there is a vehicle 300 parked on the bottom layer.

[0046] like Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, in one embodiment of the present invention, four sets of differential drive components 430 are further arranged in the housing 410 of the parking device 400, and each set of differential drive components 430 includes a frame 431, a differential 432, two wheels 433, and a first gear 434 and a second gear 435 meshing with each other. The first gear 434 is fixed in the housing 410, and the second gear 435 is fixed on the frame 431. The second gear 435 can rotate around the first gear 434. The two wheels 433 are connected through the differential 432. The differential 432 can make the inner and outer wheels 433 have different rotation speeds when turning, thereby reducing the friction between the wheels 433 and the ground and increasing the life of the wheels 433. The differential 432 is installed on the frame 431. Specifically, when driving, the second gear 435 rotates and revolves around the first gear 434, so that the frame 431 rotates relative to the housing 410, thereby realizing the turning.

[0047] Reference Figure 5 and Figure 6In one embodiment of the present invention, the parking rack 500 is composed of a plurality of longitudinal support rods 510 and a plurality of transverse support rods. Two transverse support rods or longitudinal support rods 510 arranged opposite to each other in the parking rack 500 are provided with a flip support plate 520. One end of the flip support plate 520 is hinged to the transverse support rod or the longitudinal support rod 510 and can be flipped upward. When the flip support plate 520 is in a horizontal state, it can support the edge of the support plate 200. Specifically, when the parking device 400 moves to the parking rack 500, it can continue to lift the support plate 200 upward for a certain distance. During this process, the edge of the support plate 200 will be as shown in FIG. Figure 5 As shown, the flip support plates 520 on both sides are lifted up. When the support plate 200 continues to be lifted and reaches a certain height, the flip support plates 520 will fall back to a horizontal position. At this time, the lifting assembly 420 can be lowered. During this process, the two sides of the support plate 200 will be placed on the edges of the two flip support plates 520 and supported by the flip support plates 520.

[0048] like Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, in one embodiment of the present invention, support blocks 530 are provided on two relatively arranged horizontal support rods in the parking rack 500, and the support blocks 530 are located below the flip support plate 520. The support blocks 530 are configured to support the flip support plate 520 when the flip support plate 520 is in a horizontal state.

[0049] like Figure 7 As shown, in one embodiment of the present invention, four groups of stop assemblies 700 are arranged on the support plate 200, and the four groups of stop assemblies 700 are used to stop the four tires 310 of the vehicle 300 respectively to prevent the vehicle 300 from being displaced due to inertia when being moved by the parking device 400, thereby ensuring the reliability and safety of the vehicle moving process.

[0050] like Figure 7 As shown, in one embodiment of the present invention, the stop assembly 700 includes two stop blocks 710 protruding upward from the support plate 200, and the angle between the two stop blocks 710 is an obtuse angle. The obtuse angle can expand the stopping range of the tire 310, so that the support plate 200 in the present invention can adapt to tires 310 of different widths.

[0051] like Fig. 9 and Fig.10 As shown, in one embodiment of the present invention, the stop block 710 can move in the vertical direction relative to the support plate 200. Fig. 9In the initial position shown, the lower surface of the stop block 710 is located above the upper surface of the support plate 200, and a spring 600 is provided between the stop block 710 and the support plate 200. The spring 600 is configured to make the stop block 710 always have a tendency to move toward the initial position. The spring 600 can be a tension spring. When the vehicle 300 moves onto the support plate 200, the tire 310 will pass through the stop block 710. The stop block 710 will move downward under the downward pressure of the tire 310, thereby avoiding the tire 310. After the tire 310 passes the stop block 710, the stop block 710 can be restored to the initial position. Fig. 9 Initial position shown.

[0052] It should be noted that if Figure 8 As shown, a guide groove 220 may be provided on the support plate 200 at a position corresponding to each stop block 710 , and the guide groove 220 may provide guidance for the up and down movement of the stop block 710 .

[0053] like Figures 8 to 10 As shown, in one embodiment of the present invention, the bottom surface of the stop block 710 is provided with a mounting shaft 720, the spring 600 is sleeved on the mounting shaft 720, the support plate 200 is provided with an adjustment slot 210 along the length direction of the support plate 200 at the position corresponding to the mounting shaft 720, and the bottom of the support plate 200 is provided with four sets of driving members 800, the four sets of driving members 800 can respectively control the stop blocks 710 in the four sets of stop assemblies 700 to slide along the length direction of the support plate 200, and the mounting shaft 720 can move along the adjustment slot 210. Specifically, after the vehicle 300 stops, the four sets of driving members 800 can respectively drive the four sets of stop assemblies 700 to move in the direction close to the vehicle 300, and make the four sets of stop assemblies 700 respectively fit and abut against the four tires 310. By setting the adjustment slot 210, the position of the stop assembly 700 can be changed, so as to adapt to vehicles 300 of different lengths and tire 310 spacings within a certain range.

[0054] Specifically, the driving member 800 may be a cylinder, and the extension and contraction of the cylinder may drive the installation shaft 720 to slide along the adjustment groove 210. When the vehicle 300 is about to leave the support plate 200, the cylinder may drive the installation shaft 720 to slide to the guide groove 220.

[0055] Furthermore, the two mounting shafts 720 on the two stop blocks 710 in the same stop assembly 700 may be connected to each other via a connecting rod 730 , so that the two stop blocks 710 may move up and down synchronously.

[0056] It should be noted that, after the stopper assembly 700 moves toward the direction close to the vehicle 300 , the bottom surface of the stopper block 710 will slide against the upper surface of the support plate 200 .

[0057] like Figures 9 to 12As mentioned above, in one embodiment of the present invention, the side of the stopper 710 facing away from the vehicle 300 is provided with a first inclined surface 711 and a second inclined surface 712 adjacent to each other, the angle between the first inclined surface 711 and the second inclined surface 712 is an obtuse angle, and the first inclined surface 711 and the second inclined surface 712 are configured to gradually tilt upward along the direction in which the vehicle 300 enters the support plate 200. Fig.11 As shown, when the tire 310 passes the stop block 710 in the direction of the arrow in the figure, the tire 310 can respectively cooperate with the second inclined surface 712 and the first inclined surface 711 when it moves toward and away from the stop block 710. Since the two stop blocks 710 in the same stop assembly 700 are placed obliquely, the first inclined surface 711 and the second inclined surface 712 on the stop block 710 can provide inclined guidance for the tire 310 in different directions, so that the tire 310 can press down the stop block 710 more smoothly when passing through the stop block 710.

[0058] like Figure 7 As shown, the two stop blocks 710 in each group may be at an obtuse angle and have different lengths. The first inclined surface 711 and the second inclined surface 712 of the stop blocks 710 in the four groups of stopper assemblies 700 may all face the outside of the support plate 200 in the horizontal direction, so that the tire 310 can smoothly press down the stop block 710 whether the vehicle 300 enters the support plate 200 from the front to the back or from the back to the front.

[0059] like Fig.12 As shown, in one embodiment of the present invention, the stop block 710 further has a stop surface 713 which is a vertical plane, and the stop surface 713 is used to abut against the tire 310 of the vehicle 300 when the vehicle is parked on the support plate 200. When the tire 310 abuts against the stop surface 713, it is not easy for the tire 310 to be displaced, so the stop surface 713 can limit the position of the tire 310 more reliably.

[0060] It should be noted that when the vehicle 300 needs to leave the support plate 200, the four groups of stopper assemblies 700 can be driven to move downward synchronously by a cylinder (not shown in the figure) to make the tire 310 escape from the stopper of the stopper surface 713. Specifically, the cylinder can be arranged on the mounting plate 900, the driving member 800 is fixed to the bottom of the support plate 200 and drives the mounting plate 900 to move, and the two mounting shafts 720 in the stopper assembly 700 are vertically penetrated on the mounting plate 900 and can slide vertically relative to the mounting plate 900.

[0061] The above content is a further detailed description of the present invention in combination with specific preferred implementation methods, and it cannot be determined that the specific implementation of the present invention is limited to these descriptions. For ordinary technicians in the technical field to which the present invention belongs, without departing from the concept of the present invention, its architecture can be flexible and can derive a series of products. Just making a few simple deductions or substitutions should be regarded as belonging to the scope of patent protection of the present invention determined by the submitted claims.
