Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of parking equipment technology, specifically to an entrance / exit widening mechanism for a lifting and traversing parking equipment. Background Technology

[0002] Parking equipment is widely used in China, with lift-and-slide parking systems accounting for over 70% of the market share. While lift-and-slide parking systems are simple in design and cost-effective, their main problem is the limited width of the entrance and exit, severely impacting the convenience of parking and retrieving vehicles. This issue has existed since the introduction of this type of parking equipment. A few years ago, a technical solution called "secondary lateral movement" was proposed, but this solution did not consider that the secondary lateral movement would create a 10cm trench between adjacent parking platforms, easily causing drivers to get their feet stuck. Furthermore, the width of vehicles parked on ground-level lateral movement platforms (especially new energy vehicles) is increasingly larger, and the increased width provided by "secondary lateral movement" is still insufficient. Therefore, this technical solution has not been practically adopted. Thus, it can be argued that these shortcomings have remained unresolved for decades. Therefore, finding a better technical solution to truly address the limitation of limited entrance and exit width in existing lift-and-slide parking systems, and finding a better solution to widen the entrance and exit for vehicles parked on ground-level lateral movement platforms, has become an urgent problem for the industry. Summary of the Invention

[0003] Therefore, the technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to overcome the defects of the existing technology of lifting and traversing parking equipment, which has limited entrance and exit width and seriously affects the storage and retrieval of vehicles. It provides an innovative solution that specifically increases the width of the entrance and exit on the driver side of the ground floor parking platform. Moreover, the widening effect on the driver side of the traversing platform is significant, which can effectively improve the competitiveness of the product and promote the healthy development of lifting and traversing parking equipment.

[0004] To solve the above problems, this utility model provides an entrance / exit widening mechanism for parking equipment, characterized in that it is applicable to lifting and traversing parking equipment, comprising:

[0005] The detection component is a position sensor that is signal-connected to the control device. Each detection component is equipped with a paired signal transmitting element and a signal triggering element, which are respectively installed on the transverse vehicle platform of the ground floor of the parking equipment and on the parking space on the ground.

[0006] The detection components include a centering detection component, a first widening detection component, and a second widening detection component. The signal transmitting element of the centering detection component sends a signal to the control device that the lateral moving platform is currently in a position with a deviation dimension of zero. The signal transmitting element of the first widening detection component sends a signal to the control device that the lateral moving platform is currently in a position with a deviation dimension of widening distance one. The signal transmitting element of the second widening detection component sends a signal to the control device that the lateral moving platform is currently in a position with a deviation dimension of widening distance two. The deviation dimension refers to the dimension by which the longitudinal centerline of the lateral moving platform deviates from the longitudinal centerline of the corresponding parking space. The widening distance two is greater than the widening distance one.

[0007] An extended pedal assembly is installed on the longitudinal side beam of the non-driver side of the transverse vehicle platform, and includes a drive unit and a footboard.

[0008] The drive unit is a horizontal linear reciprocating drive mechanism whose displacement direction is perpendicular to the longitudinal centerline of the transverse moving plate.

[0009] The footplate is a rectangular plate or rectangular plate frame, which is mechanically connected to the terminal displacement part of the drive unit. It is located above the longitudinal side beam, with one end located in the middle of the longitudinal side beam and the other end located at the end of the longitudinal side beam near the lane.

[0010] One extreme position of the drive unit's reciprocating movement causes the footplate to be located inside the projection of the longitudinal side beam, corresponding to the widening pedal assembly being in a non-working state. The other extreme position causes the footplate to be located outside the projection of the longitudinal side beam, corresponding to the widening pedal assembly being in a working state.

[0022] This installation method has the following advantages: First, installing the frame on the ground is more stable than installing the components; second, adjusting the position of the components on the frame is more convenient and reliable than installing them directly on the ground.

[0023] Preferably, according to the aforementioned entrance / exit widening mechanism for parking equipment, the step plate of the widening pedal assembly is characterized in that an outer frame is added above the foot plate and fastened to the longitudinal side beam, the interior of the outer frame is a cavity with a notch, the notch faces the outside of the longitudinal side beam, and the foot plate is disposed inside the cavity.

[0024] When the widened pedal assembly is not in operation, the footboard is located in the cavity of the outer frame, and the upper plate of the outer frame replaces the footboard function of the corresponding position of the longitudinal side beam.

[0025] When the widened pedal assembly is in operation, the footplate is located on the outside of the outer frame, and the upper plate of the outer frame and the footplate together perform the function of stepping.

[0027] Preferably, according to the aforementioned entrance / exit widening mechanism for parking equipment, the driving unit of the widening pedal assembly includes a motor reducer, a drive sprocket, a driven sprocket, a chain, a gear, and a rack; the motor reducer is fixedly installed below the longitudinal side beam, with its output shaft horizontally arranged and parallel to the length direction of the longitudinal side beam, and the drive sprocket is fixedly installed thereon; the driven sprocket and the gear are coaxially installed; the chain meshes with the drive sprocket and the driven sprocket; the rack, as the terminal displacement component of the driving unit, is arranged in the same direction as the width direction of the footplate, fixedly installed below the footplate, with its teeth facing downwards, and meshes with the gear; the motor reducer reciprocates, driving the driven sprocket to reciprocate through the drive sprocket and the chain, and then driving the rack to reciprocate horizontally in a linear motion through the gear, thereby driving the footplate to reciprocate horizontally in a linear motion along the width direction of the longitudinal side beam.

[0028] Preferably, according to the aforementioned entrance / exit widening mechanism for parking equipment, the control device is either the control system of the parking equipment or the operation box of the parking equipment.

[0029] The technical solution of this utility model has the following advantages:

[0030] This utility model provides an entrance / exit widening mechanism for a parking equipment suitable for lifting and traversing parking devices, compared with the closest prior art:

[0031] 1. A creative technical solution is proposed, employing two different offset dimensions for different target vehicle platform types, with the widened offset specifically designed for the driver's side. The smaller offset is used when the target platform is a non-ground-level lateral sliding platform, because in this case, the ground level is already full of vehicles, and the platform's offset movement can only be inwards towards the pillars, limited by the pillar width. The larger offset is used when the target platform is a ground-level lateral sliding platform, because this creates at least one lateral sliding space on the ground level, allowing the platform to move towards that space. This approach aligns with the reality that ground-level lateral sliding platforms typically accommodate vehicles with larger widths. To maintain operational efficiency, an offset dimension of approximately 200mm is recommended, creating a passageway that minimizes foot obstruction and allows for easy driver access.

[0032] 2. To address the defect of a pit approximately 10cm wide formed after a small offset operation, a widening pedal assembly is installed on the longitudinal side beam of the non-driver side of the ground level transverse vehicle platform. The footboard of this widening pedal assembly can fill the pit and prevent the driver's foot from getting stuck.

[0033] 3. The optimal solution is to install the widened pedal assembly on the ground-level traverse platform. This is because the number of ground-level traverse platforms is always less than the number of other platforms, resulting in a relatively lower manufacturing cost.

[0034] 4. The technical solution of this utility model can be applied to both new products and the upgrading and transformation of existing equipment, thus further expanding its application scope. Attached Figure Description

[0044] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0045] To make the above-mentioned objectives, features and advantages of this utility model more apparent and understandable, the utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. Example 1

[0046] like Figures 1 to 2 The diagram shown is a schematic diagram of the entrance / exit widening operation according to Embodiment 1 of this application.

[0047] Figure 1 , Figure 2 This is a ground floor top view of a four-car lift-and-slide parking system. Lane 40 is shown at the bottom of the diagram, and its orientation is set to forward.

[0048] As shown in the diagram: the parking area of ​​this parking equipment is equipped with a left rear pillar 01, a right rear pillar 02, a left front pillar 03, and a right front pillar 04 at the four outer corners, with lane 40 below; according to industry common sense: the ground level shown in the diagram is a continuous lateral movement area, and the ground level is equipped with four parking spaces, namely ground parking space 11 with lateral movement platform 1 21, ground parking space 2 12 with lateral movement platform 2 22, ground parking space 3 13 with lifting platform 3 53, and ground parking space 4 14 with lateral movement platform 3 23. The center distance between any two ground parking spaces is the parking space center distance C.

[0049] The lifting and traversing parking equipment is designed for reverse parking by default; therefore, the right side of each platform in the diagram represents the driver's side 61. Each traversing platform has a widening step assembly 62 installed on its non-driver's side beam 60 from the middle towards the lane. The widening step assembly 62 includes a footrest 63. The rear ends of traversing platform one 21, traversing platform two 22, and traversing platform three 23 are respectively equipped with a platform one movement detection component 21b, a platform two movement detection component 22b, and a platform three movement detection component 23b. These movement detection components, together with position switches installed above the ground parking space, form detection assemblies. The platform one movement detection component 21b, platform two movement detection component 22b, and platform three movement detection component 23b serve as signal triggering elements for the detection assemblies, while the position switches serve as signal transmitting elements for the detection assemblies.

[0050] As shown in the figure: In this embodiment, a centering position switch 33, a right widening position 1 switch 34, a right widening position 2 switch 35, a left widening position 1 switch 32, and a left widening position 2 switch 31 are installed at the position of the movement detection component corresponding to the transverse vehicle platform in each ground parking space; The figure shows that the distance between the centering position switch 33 and the right widening position 1 switch 34, and the distance between the centering position switch 33 and the left widening position 1 switch 32 are both widening distance 1A; the distance between the centering position switch 33 and the right widening position 2 switch 35, and the distance between the centering position switch 33 and the left widening position 2 switch 31 are both widening distance 2B.

[0051] Figure 1 As shown, the center lines of all the lateral moving platforms are aligned with the center lines of the corresponding ground parking spaces. The movement detection components 21b, 22b, and 23b of the first moving platform are in contact with the center position switch 33 of the corresponding ground parking space, indicating that the lateral moving platforms 21, 22, and 23 are all in the normal stationary position.

[0052] The target platform in this embodiment is the lifting platform 353, which is already located on the ground floor.

[0053] like Figure 2 As shown, the transverse car platform 3 23 moves laterally away from the driver's side of the target car platform (right side of the figure), and the moving distance is the widening distance A. This causes the car platform 3 movement detection component 23b to contact the right widening position switch 34 installed on the ground parking space 4 14. The center distance between the lifting car platform 3 53 and the transverse car platform 3 23 increases to the car platform spacing D1 after C+A=the displacement widening distance, thus achieving the purpose of widening the entrance and exit on the driver's side of the target car platform.

[0054] Figure 2 As shown, the widening pedal assembly 62 installed on the transverse vehicle plate 3 23 is in operation, and the corresponding footboard 63 fills the pit formed by the widening of the entrance and exit. Example 2

[0055] like Figures 3 to 4 The diagram shown is a schematic diagram of the entrance / exit widening operation according to Embodiment 2 of this application.

[0056] As can be seen from the figure, the device layout in this embodiment is basically the same as that in Embodiment 1, with the difference being:

[0057] The location switches installed in the ground parking spaces in this embodiment are more reasonable (reduced number, unchanged function).

[0058] In this embodiment, the target vehicle platform is the transverse vehicle platform 21, and the widening distance of the driver's side entrance / exit is widening distance 2.

[0059] For the sake of simplicity, the following analysis and description will focus on the differences mentioned above.

[0060] The leftmost ground parking space 21 in the diagram is equipped with only a centering position switch 33.

[0061] The reason is that the driver's side of the vehicle is on the right side of the diagram.

[0062] When the target vehicle platform located in ground parking space 1 21 is a lifting vehicle platform, all the transverse vehicle platforms located in ground parking space 22 and to the right of ground parking space 22 need to be laterally displaced to the right by a distance equal to the widening distance 1.

[0063] When the target vehicle platform located in ground parking space 1 21 is a transverse vehicle platform 1 21, and ground parking space 22 is not a transverse empty space, then all continuous transverse vehicle platforms located in ground parking space 22 and located to the right of ground parking space 22 and to the transverse empty space need to be transversely displaced to the right by a distance equal to the widening distance 2.

[0064] The above does not involve the left or right lateral displacement of the vehicle platform located in ground parking space 21. Therefore, the leftmost ground parking space 21 in the diagram only needs to be equipped with a centering position switch 33 at most.

[0065] Similarly, after analysis, the lateral moving platform located in ground parking space 4 14 has a lateral displacement to the right by a distance equal to the first widening distance and a lateral displacement to the right by a distance equal to the second widening distance. Therefore, ground parking space 4 14 needs to be equipped with at least a centering position switch 33, a left widening two position switch 31, and a right widening one position switch 34.

[0066] When the target platform is a transverse platform, the lifting platform located on the ground floor needs to be reset and returned to its original position. Therefore, if Figure 3 As shown, in this embodiment, ground parking space 313 has no car platform and is a lateral empty space.

[0067] When the target vehicle platform is the lateral moving platform 21, the operation of the entrance / exit widening displacement requires all continuous lateral moving platforms located at ground parking space 22 and to the right of ground parking space 22 up to the lateral moving space to be laterally displaced to the right by a distance equal to the widening distance 2; since the right side of ground parking space 22 in this embodiment is already a lateral moving space, therefore... Figure 4 As shown, simply move the transverse car platform 22 located in the ground parking space 22 to the right by a distance equal to the widening distance 2, so that the car platform 2 movement detection component 22b contacts the right widening distance 2 position switch 35 installed on the ground parking space 22. The center distance between the transverse car platform 1 21 and the transverse car platform 22 increases to the car platform spacing D2 after C+B=the displacement widening distance 2, thus achieving the purpose of widening the driver's side entrance and exit of the target car platform.

[0068] When the entrance and exit widening distance is widening distance two, since the resulting tunnel is already wide enough, there will be no foot jamming and the driver can easily enter and exit. Therefore, it is more reasonable for the relevant widening pedal assembly 62 to be in a non-working state (extending the footboard 63 outward is inappropriate). Example 3

[0069] like Figures 5 to 6 The diagram shown is a structural schematic of a widening pedal assembly according to Embodiment 3 of this application.

[0070] The diagram shows the non-driver side of the lateral moving platform. The center line 20 of the platform is visible in the diagram. To the left of the center line 20 are the middle cover plate 23, the traveling plate 22, and the non-driver side beam 21. Above the non-driver side beam 21 is a footboard 63 of the widened pedal assembly. A linear motor 73 with a horizontally positioned output shaft 72 is located in the cavity below the middle cover plate 23. The output shaft 72 and the footboard 63 are mechanically connected by a push-pull rod 71. The reciprocating linear displacement of the linear motor 73 directly drives the footboard 63 to perform horizontal reciprocating linear displacement along the width direction of the non-driver side beam 21.

[0071] Figure 5 The image shows the widened pedal assembly in a non-operating state.

[0072] Figure 6 As shown, the output shaft 72 of the linear motor 73 moves linearly to the left, and pushes the foot plate 63 to move synchronously through the push-pull rod 71, so that the foot plate 63 is located outside the non-driver side beam 21, and the widened pedal assembly is in working condition.

[0073] This embodiment is applicable to situations where the side beams of the transverse moving platform are at the same height as the traveling platform. Example 4

[0074] like Figures 7 to 8 The diagram shown is a structural schematic of a widening pedal assembly according to Embodiment 4 of this application.

[0075] The diagram shows the non-driver side of the lateral moving platform. From right to left, the traveling platform 22 and the non-driver side beam 60 of the elevated traveling platform 22 are visible. Above the non-driver side beam 60, a footboard 63 for widening the pedal assembly is installed, and the footboard 63 is located inside the cavity of the outer frame 64. The left side of the outer frame 64 has a notch. A motor reducer 69 with a horizontally arranged output shaft is fastened to the cavity below the non-driver side beam 60, and a drive chain is fastened to the output shaft of the motor reducer 69. Wheel 68, driven sprocket 66, and gear 65 are coaxially mounted. Chain 67 meshes with drive sprocket 68 and driven sprocket 66. A rack with downward-facing teeth that meshes with gear 65 is fastened to the lower part of foot plate 63. Motor reducer 69 reciprocates, driving driven sprocket 66 to reciprocate through drive sprocket 68 and chain 67. Then, gear 65 drives rack and causes foot plate 63 to make horizontal reciprocating linear displacement along the width direction of non-driver side beam 60.

[0076] Figure 7 The image shows the widened pedal assembly in a non-operating state.

[0077] Figure 8 As shown, the motor reducer 69 rotates counterclockwise, driving the driven sprocket 66 to rotate counterclockwise through the driving sprocket 68 and chain 67. Then, the gear 65 drives the rack and causes the foot plate 63 to move to the left in a straight line, so that the foot plate 63 is located outside the non-driver side beam 60, and the widened pedal assembly is in working condition.

[0078] This embodiment is applicable to situations where the side beam of the transverse moving platform is higher than the traveling platform.

[0079] To further illustrate the entrance / exit widening mechanism of a parking equipment according to this application, Figure 9 The diagram shows a control flow chart for one of the usage methods. The control logic corresponding to this flow chart is:

[0080] If the target vehicle board selected by the user in the operation box is not on the ground floor, then only the control of dispatching the target vehicle board to the ground floor will be performed.

[0081] If the target vehicle platform selected by the user in the control box is on the ground floor, then the driver's side entrance / exit of the target vehicle platform will be widened.

[0082] The specific process is shown in the figure:

[0083] S00: Start;

[0084] S01: Obtain the vehicle board selected by the user from the operation box, wherein the vehicle board is defined as the target vehicle board.

[0085] S02: Determine if the target vehicle platform is located on the ground level. If so, proceed to S04.

[0086] S03: The target vehicle is dispatched to the ground floor; proceed to step 01.

[0087] S04: Determine if the target vehicle board has moved laterally. If so, proceed to S07.

[0088] S05: The side of the target vehicle panel adjacent to the driver's position is called the driver's side.

[0089] S06: All the continuously arranged transverse moving platforms adjacent to the driver's side simultaneously move away from the driver's side to widen the entrance, reaching the corresponding widening distance position; then proceed to S09.

[0090] S07: The side of the target vehicle that is not adjacent to the driver's position is called the non-driver side.

[0091] S08: The target vehicle and all the adjacent transverse vehicle panels arranged in succession on the non-driver side move towards the non-driver side to widen the entrance, reaching the position of the corresponding widening distance two.

[0092] S09: This operation information will be stored as the latest operation information for future reference. Proceed to step 01.
