[0018] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figures 1 to 8 The present invention will be described in further detail, but this is not intended to limit the scope of the present invention.

[0019] This application proposes a parking device with high space utilization, including a multi-level parking garage main body 1, a car moving machine 2, and a car repositioning robot 3; two multi-level parking garage main bodies 1 are arranged opposite each other, and each of the two multi-level parking garage main bodies 1 has multiple parking spaces 11 for temporary parking of vehicles. The multiple parking spaces 11 are arranged in the same direction, and an aisle 12 is provided between the two multi-level parking garage main bodies 1; the car moving robot 3 moves along the length of the aisle 12 and is used to transport vehicles outside the multi-level parking garage main bodies 1 to the parking spaces 11. The car moving robot 3 is arranged parallel to the parking spaces 11; the car moving machine 2 can move back and forth and rise and fall along the height direction. The car moving machine 2 works with the car moving robot 3 to lift and lower vehicles to different heights.

[0020] Specifically, the car moving robot 3 is a common car moving device on the market, which will not be described in detail in this embodiment. The car moving robot 3 in this embodiment can be one of chassis moving type, tire moving type or chassis split moving type.

[0021] Specifically, the passageway 12 between the two main bodies 1 of the multi-level parking garage is only used for the movement of the car moving machine 2. Moreover, the entire process of a vehicle entering the parking space 11 is completed by the car moving machine 2 or the car moving robot 3. During the parking process, the vehicle does not need to turn around or perform other actions that require a lot of space. The width of the passageway 12 is further compressed, which allows this application to be arranged in a smaller space, further reducing the space requirements.

[0022] In this embodiment, the parking space 11 includes a support column 112 and a base plate 111. The base plate 111 is used to support vehicles. Multiple base plates 111 are connected in series to form a whole. The support column 112 is arranged between two adjacent base plates 111. The space on the main body 1 of the multi-level parking garage is divided into parking spaces 11 by the support column 112.

[0023] Specifically, in some cases, multiple automated parking garage main bodies 1 are stacked vertically, and the support column 112 can be used to support the upper automated parking garage main body 1, making the automated parking garage main body 1 set off from the ground more stable.

[0024] At the same time, the pillars 112 can separate the parking spaces 11, so that the two pillars 112 form an individual parking space 11, which can make the parking spaces 11 more standardized.

[0025] In this embodiment, the main body 1 of the multi-level parking garage is stacked sequentially along the height direction, and the car moving robot 3 transports the vehicle to the parking space 11 away from the ground through the car moving machine 2.

[0026] Specifically, in some confined spaces where there are many vehicles waiting to park but few parking spaces 11, multiple multi-level parking garage main bodies 1 can be stacked along the height direction. Two adjacent multi-level parking garage main bodies 1 can be fixedly connected by a support column 112. The support column 112 is also used to support the upper multi-level parking garage main body 1, ensuring the consistency of the multiple multi-level parking garage main bodies 1 and avoiding interference when using the car moving machine 2 and the car moving robot 3 for automated parking.

[0027] In this embodiment, the length of parking space 11 is a uniform dimension; Specifically, in places where the size of vehicles is fixed, the length of parking space 11 can be set to be uniform, which is conducive to further utilization of space. In the same space, parking space 11 can be further planned to accommodate more vehicles on the original basis.

[0028] The length of parking space 11 is set according to the size of different types of vehicles.

[0029] In addition, in this embodiment, before setting up the parking device in this application, the installer surveys the area to examine the distribution of vehicle types in the area, and finally adjusts the length of the parking space 11 reasonably according to the distribution of vehicle types so that the parking device in this application can accommodate different types of vehicles.

[0030] In this embodiment, the car moving machine 2 is slidably connected to the main body 1 of the multi-level parking garage. The car moving machine 2 includes a car moving frame 21, which is equipped with a lifting platform 22. The top of the car moving frame 21 is equipped with a winch 23 for driving the lifting platform 22 to rise and fall.

[0031] Specifically, the car moving machine 2 is slidably connected to the main body 1 of the automated parking garage, allowing the car moving machine 2 to slide along the length of the main body 1 of the automated parking garage. When multiple automated parking garage bodies 1 are stacked on top of each other, the car moving machine 2 sends the vehicle into the parking space 11 that is off the ground. Specifically, the lifting platform 22 is slidably connected to the car moving frame 21, and the winch 23 located on the upper side of the car moving frame 21 hangs down a steel cable. The end of the steel cable is fixed to the lifting platform 22. The winch 23 rotates to collect the steel cable or release the steel cable, thereby raising or lowering the lifting platform 22.

[0032] Specifically, in this embodiment, the winch 23 is driven by a motor, which drives the winch 23 to rotate, thereby contracting or releasing the steel cable.

[0033] In this embodiment, the lifting platform 22 is symmetrically provided with inclined plates 24 for the moving robot 3 to move up and down.

[0034] Specifically, inclined plates 24 are set at the front and rear ends of the lifting platform 22. The inclined plates 24 are set to allow the moving robot 3 to move up and down. Setting two inclined plates 24 enables the moving robot 3 to transport the vehicle out of the parking device of this application from different directions.

[0035] In some cases, a waiting area 5 and a departure area 6 are also included. The waiting area 5 and the departure area 6 are respectively set at both ends of the passageway 12. The waiting area 5 is used for vehicles waiting to enter the parking space 11, while the departure area 6 is used for vehicles that have been moved out of the parking space 11 to leave. In this embodiment, by setting two ramps 24, the waiting area 5 and the departure area 6 can be separated, which further solves the parking congestion problem.

[0036] Specifically, waiting area 5 is equipped with several sensors to identify vehicle license plates, measure vehicle dimensions, and locate the vehicle. After a user places an order, control panel 4 matches the vehicle with a suitable parking space. The car moving robot 3 moves to the bottom of the vehicle, straightens it, and then works with car moving machine 2 to send the vehicle into the matched parking space.

[0037] On the other hand, in some places where space is limited, the waiting area 5 and the departure area 6 can be set up together to further reduce the footprint of the parking device.

[0038] In this embodiment, a pulley 25 is provided on the side of the car moving frame 21 that contacts the main body 1 of the multi-level parking garage. The pulley 25 contacts the side of the base plate 111. A sliding part 7 is provided on the top side of the car moving frame 21, and a pulley 25 is provided on the sliding part 7. A sliding groove 8 is provided on the top of the main body 1 of the multi-level parking garage. The sliding part 7 and the sliding groove 8 are configured to cooperate with each other, and the pulley 25 slides in the sliding groove 8.

[0039] Specifically, the pulley 25 is located on the outside of the car transfer frame 21, and the outer surface of the pulley 25 contacts the side of the base plate 111, so that the car transfer frame 21 can move along the extension direction of the base plate 111. The pulley 25 can improve the smoothness of the car transfer frame 21 when it moves, and prevent the car transfer frame 21 from bumping during movement and causing damage to the vehicle.

[0040] In this embodiment, the car moving frame 21 includes four support columns 27, which are disposed at the four corners of the lifting platform 22. Each support column 27 has a groove 28 facing the lifting platform 22, and the lifting platform 22 is provided with a slide 29 corresponding to the groove 28.

[0041] Specifically, the slide 29 is set in the groove 28 and is fixedly connected to the lifting platform 22. When the winch 23 drives the lifting platform 22 to rise and fall, the lifting platform 22 moves along the extension direction of the groove 28 through the slide 29. The groove 28 guides the movement of the moving platform, and the slide 29 enables the lifting platform 22 to move more flexibly.

[0042] In this embodiment, a control panel 4 is also included. The control panel 4 is located on one side around the main body 1 of the multi-level parking garage. The control panel 4 is electrically connected to the main body 1 of the multi-level parking garage, the car moving robot 3 and the car moving machine 2 respectively. The control panel 4 controls the car moving robot 3 and the car moving machine 2 to cooperate to achieve automatic parking.

[0043] Specifically, the control console 4 connects the main body 1 of the automated parking garage, the car-moving robot 3, and the car-moving machine 2. Through the control console 4, the main body 1 of the automated parking garage, the car-moving robot 3, and the car-moving machine 2 work together to complete parking and retrieval actions. The control console 4 is equipped with a PLC controller or industrial computer. Sensors are installed in the main body 1 of the automated parking garage to monitor whether there are vehicles in the parking spaces 11. The sensors transmit signals to the control console 4, which facilitates the control console 4 to make reasonable allocation of parking spaces 11. The control console 4 can also control the car-moving machine 2 to move forward and backward and rise and fall through the PLC controller or industrial computer. The control console 4 can also control the car-moving robot 3 to move cars through the PLC controller or industrial computer. The automatic parking function is realized through the cooperation of the control console 4 and various components.

[0044] Example 2 The difference between this embodiment and Embodiment 1 is that, in this application, the main body 1 of the multi-level parking garage can be used as a single layer or on a single side.

[0045] Specifically, such as Figure 8 As shown, in some places with limited space where it is not feasible to set up the main body 1 of the multi-level parking garage on both sides, a single-sided multi-level parking garage main body 1 can be set up, which makes this application applicable to more space solutions.

[0046] This application also has various embodiments, such as two multi-level parking garage bodies 1 being connected end to end along the length direction to form a longer multi-level parking garage body 1; for example, two multi-level parking garage bodies 1 being vertically arranged on the same plane; for example, multiple multi-level parking garage bodies 1 being arranged parallel to each other at equal intervals on a plane, etc. These will not be elaborated upon in this embodiment.

[0047] The specific working principle of this application is as follows: First, the user parks the vehicle in the waiting area 5. After the user places an order, the control panel 4 sends a signal to control the moving robot 3 to lift and move the vehicle. The moving robot 3 moves the vehicle into the moving machine 2. The control panel 4 sends a signal to control the moving machine 2 to move the moving robot 3 and the vehicle to the designated position. Then, the moving robot 3 moves the vehicle laterally on the lifting platform 22 to the parking space 11. After parking, the control panel 4 controls the moving machine 2 and the moving robot 3 to return to the initial position. When picking up the vehicle, the user places an order first. The control panel 4 sends a signal to move the vehicle bound to the user from the parking area to the departure area 6. The specific working process is the reverse of the vehicle parking in the parking area, so it will not be described in detail.

[0048] In addition, the distance between vehicles located in parking space 11 in this application is 5-10CM. Since this application uses a car moving robot 3 for automatic parking, it can accurately control the distance between vehicles. The distance between vehicles is further reduced, which makes better use of the space of the parking device and allows more vehicles to be parked in a limited space.

[0049] On the other hand, the bottom of the car mover 21 is equipped with moving wheels, which are controlled by a motor. The motor controls the rolling of the moving wheels, thereby driving the car mover 21 to move back and forth to transport the vehicle to the designated position. It also includes a braking system, which is used to brake the moving wheels. The separate braking system can improve the stopping stability of the car mover 21. In this embodiment, the control panel 4 is equipped with a touch screen, which can display the status of the parking space 11 and the size of the parking space 11 in real time, so that users can select the appropriate parking space 11 according to their own vehicles. The operation of this parking device is powered by batteries.
