[0002] With the improvement of living standards, cars are gradually entering ordinary families, and the resulting parking demand is growing exponentially, especially in first- and second-tier cities. How to set up more parking spaces in a limited space has become an urgent problem to be solved. Mechanical multi-story parking garages have a small footprint and high space utilization, becoming an effective way to solve the above problem.

[0003] Currently, mechanical multi-story parking garages on the market use fixed parking spaces, with vehicles stored and retrieved from each space via a vertically and horizontally moving elevator equipped with an extendable vehicle grabbing mechanism.

This structure, designed for cylindrical or narrow underground spaces, reduces the space required for vehicle handling mechanisms. In this type of garage, the loading platform can slide laterally out of the way, allowing the vehicle grabbing mechanism to descend and grab a vehicle from any position above the target parking space. For this type of garage, a specialized vehicle handling device is urgently needed. Utility Model Content
