[0045] Various embodiments disclosed in this description are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Identical or similar components are designated with the same reference numerals regardless of the reference numerals used, thus eliminating the need for repeated descriptions.

[0046] Fig. Figure 1 is a view showing by way of example an elevator device for a means of transport according to an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure, wherein the elevator device comprises a structure and an elevator 100, and Fig. Figure 2 is a view that shows, by way of example, the elevator 100 and a means of transport 20.

[0047] Furthermore, the Fig. 3, Fig. 4 to Fig. 5 exemplary views of states in which the means of transport 20 enters a receiving room S, enters the elevator 100 and is loaded onto a base plate 200, and a multifunctional plate 300 moves upwards or downwards.

[0048] As in the Fig. 1, Fig. 2, Fig. 3, Fig. 4 to Fig. As shown in Figure 5, the lifting device for a means of transportation according to an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure comprises the lift 100 arranged in a structure 10, which is configured to move upwards or downwards, comprising the receiving space S, which is configured to receive the means of transportation 20, and comprising at least one opening section 110, the base plate 200 arranged in the lift 100, which is configured to be rotatable on a floor surface of the receiving space S, and is configured to align an entrance / exit 21 of the means of transportation 20 or a direction of travel of the means of transportation 20 with the opening section 110 while rotating in the state in which the means of transportation 20 is loaded, and the multifunctional plate 300, which is arranged in the lift 100 and is configuredthat it moves in an upward / downward direction in the recording space S, wherein the multifunction plate 300 is configured such that it covers the base plate 200 between the entrance / exit 21 of the means of transport 20 and the opening section 110 of the elevator 100 while moving downwards to provide the foothold function to the occupant.

[0049] In an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure, the structure 10 may be a building, a parking tower or the like and may be configured as a multi-story structure.

[0050] Structure 10 comprises the elevator 100, which moves upwards or downwards to a multitude of floors. The structure in which the elevator 100 moves upwards or downwards within Structure 10 is an obvious configuration generally applied to a typical elevator structure and differs from a key aspect of the present disclosure. Therefore, a specific description is omitted.

[0051] The receiving space S is located inside the elevator 100 and is designed to accommodate the means of transport 20. Furthermore, the elevator 100 may have at least one opening section 110, allowing the means of transport 20 to move through the opening section 110 into or out of the receiving space S. The elevator 100 may also have a door configured to open or close the opening section 110, and the opening section 110 may be in an open state without the door.

[0052] The base plate 200 and the multifunctional plate 300 are arranged in the receiving chamber S of the elevator 100.

[0053] The base plate 200 is located in the elevator 100 and is configured to rotate on the floor of the receiving space S. When the transport vehicle 20 enters the receiving space S and is loaded onto the base plate 200, the base plate 200 can rotate to change the position of the transport vehicle 20.

[0054] The base plate 200 can be rotatably mounted in the elevator 100 by various means, such as a motor, an actuator, or a geared connection structure. Furthermore, various methods for rotating objects can be used. The base plate 200 can also be wider than the transport element 20, allowing the transport element 20 to be positioned within the base plate 200 when mounted. As described above, the base plate 200 can be circular and designed such that its surface area is larger than that of the transport element 20 when viewed from top to bottom, allowing the transport element 20 to be accommodated within the base plate 200.

[0055] As described above, the base plate 200 is configured to rotate in the receiving space S of the elevator 100, so that the entrance / exit 21 of the means of transport 20 or the direction of travel of the means of transport 20 can be aligned with the opening section 110 according to a rotation position.

[0056] This means that when the means of transport 20 is unloaded from the elevator 100, after the means of transport 20 has entered the receiving space S of the elevator 100, the direction of travel of the means of transport 20 and the opening section 110 of the elevator 100 are aligned by the rotation of the base plate 200 in such a way that the means of transport 20 can be unloaded from the elevator 100 while the means of transport 20 simply travels straight ahead.

[0057] In the event that only one occupant exits the elevator 100 after the means of transport 20 has entered the receiving chamber S of the elevator 100, the entrance / exit 21 of the means of transport 20 and the opening section 110 of the elevator 100 are aligned by rotating the base plate 200 so that the occupant exiting the means of transport 20 can easily reach the opening section 110 of the elevator 100.

[0058] The rotational position of the base plate 200 can be adjusted by a control unit C located in the structure 10 or the elevator 100. The control unit C can communicate with the means of transport 20, detect whether the means of transport 20 is extending or whether a passenger is entering or exiting the means of transport 20, and control or regulate the rotational position of the base plate 200.

[0059] The multifunction plate 300 is located in the elevator 100 and configured to move upwards / downwards in the recording chamber S. With reference to Fig. 3, Fig. 4 to Fig. 5. The multifunctional plate 300 can move upwards or downwards in the receiving space S by means of a rail structure. That is, a rail configured to allow the multifunctional plate 300 to move upwards or downwards can be arranged in the receiving space S of the elevator 100, and the multifunctional plate 300 can be coupled to the rail and move upwards or downwards. Various structures, such as a rack and pinion system, a chain connection system, and a gear connection system, can be used as the rail connection structure for the multifunctional plate 300. Furthermore, connection structures for moving objects in straight lines can be selectively employed.

[0060] As described above, the multifunction panel 300 moves upwards / downwards in the receiving space S of the elevator 100. When the multifunction panel 300 moves upwards, it does not obstruct the means of transport 20. When the multifunction panel 300 moves downwards, it provides the occupant with a footrest function by covering the base plate 200 between the entrance / exit 21 of the means of transport 20 and the opening section 110 of the elevator 100.

[0061] When the occupant enters or exits the means of transport 20, a gap between the entrance / exit 21 of the means of transport 20 and the structure 10 is therefore covered by the base plate 200, so that the occupant can enter or exit the means of transport 20 without discomfort due to a height difference.

[0062] The vertical position of the multifunction plate 300 can be set by the control unit C located in the structure 10 or the elevator 100. The control unit C can communicate with the means of transport 20, detect whether the means of transport 20 is disembarking or whether a passenger is entering or exiting the means of transport 20, and control the vertical position of the multifunction plate 300.

[0063] The revelation mentioned above will be described in more detail below.

[0064] In an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure, the base plate 200 can rotate when the means of locomotion 20 enters the receiving space S of the elevator 100 in order to align the position of the means of locomotion 20.

[0065] Fig. 6, Fig. 7 to Fig. Figure 8 shows that the means of transport 20 has reached the base plate 200 and that the position of the means of transport 20 is aligned.

[0066] A contact section 210 is arranged on a central section of the base plate 200, and a connecting section 22, which is configured to touch the contact section 210, is arranged on a lower section of the means of locomotion 20, so that when the means of locomotion 20 comes onto the base plate 200, the connecting section 22 is guided while touching the contact section 210, so that the position of the means of locomotion 20 can be aligned on the central section of the base plate 200.

[0067] The contact section 210 can project upwards from a surface of the base plate 200. In another embodiment, the contact section 210 can be configured to be selectively extended or retracted. For example, the contact section 210 can be configured to project selectively from the base plate 200 by means of an actuator. The contact section 210 can be retracted if the transport element does not enter the receiving space S of the elevator 100. If the transport element 20 enters the receiving space S, the contact section 210 can be extended from the base plate 200 and contact the connecting section 22 of the transport element 20.

[0068] The contact section 210 is arranged in the middle section of the base plate 200, so that in the event that the connecting section 22 of the means of locomotion 20 comes into contact with the contact section 210 and the movement of the means of locomotion 20 is guided, the means of locomotion 20 can move to the middle section of the base plate 200 in order to fit the position of the contact section 210 of the base plate 200.

[0069] The connecting section 22 is formed on the lower section of the means of transport 20. When the means of transport 20 enters the receiving chamber S of the elevator 100 and is loaded onto the base plate 200, the connecting section 22 comes into contact with the contact section 210, so that a direction of movement of the means of transport 20 can be guided.

[0070] In the present case, the connecting section 22 can be configured as a slot extending in the direction of travel in the lower section of the means of locomotion 20. When the means of locomotion 20 reaches the base plate 200, the contact section 210 is inserted into the connecting section 22, and the movement of the connecting section 22 is guided such that the position of the means of locomotion 20 can be fixed after the means of locomotion 20 has moved to the central section of the base plate 200, where the contact section 210 is formed.

[0071] The connecting section 22 extends such that its width gradually decreases from a lower edge of the means of locomotion 20 towards the means of locomotion 20. When the means of locomotion 20 reaches the base plate 200, the contact section 210 and the connecting section 22 can therefore guide the means of locomotion 20 in such a way that the means of locomotion 20 is positioned in the middle section of the base plate 200.

[0072] The connecting section 22 can be formed on the lower section of the means of transport 20 and extend from the edge towards the middle section of the means of transport 20. For example, the connecting section 22 can extend from a front face of the means of transport 20 in the direction of travel to a middle section of the means of transport 20 and be slot-shaped so that the contact section 210 can be inserted into the connecting section 22. An inlet of the connecting section 22 is designed such that it is wider than the contact section 210, so that the contact section 210 can be inserted into the connecting section 22 when the means of transport 20 reaches the base plate 200. Furthermore, the connecting section 22 is designed such that its width gradually decreases towards the center.When the propulsion device 20 reaches the base plate 200, the contact section 210 touches the inside of the connecting section 22, thus guiding the movement of the propulsion device 20. Finally, the contact section 210 touches a distal end section of the connecting section 22 and is connected to it, so that the movement of the propulsion device 20 can be restricted.

[0073] As in Fig. 6 to Fig. As can be seen in Figure 7, when the means of locomotion 20 moves onto the base plate 200, the connecting section 22 is guided by the contact section 210. As the contact section 210 moves towards the distal end section of the connecting section 22, the position of the means of locomotion 20 moves towards the middle section of the base plate 200, so that the position of the means of locomotion 20 can be aligned with the middle section of the base plate 200 when the means of locomotion 20 enters the receiving chamber S of the elevator 100.

[0074] Furthermore, as in Fig. 8. To recognize that the inlet / outlet 21 of the means of transport 20 or the direction of travel of the means of transport 20 can be aligned with the opening section 110 by rotating the base plate 200. That is, the position of the means of transport 20 is aligned in conjunction with the rotation of the base plate 200 such that the inlet / outlet 21 of the means of transport 20 can coincide with the opening section 110 or the direction of travel of the means of transport 20 can coincide with the opening section 110.

[0075] Therefore, the means of transport 20 can move outwards from the receiving space S by simply moving straight ahead when the means of transport 20 leaves the receiving space S of the elevator 100. When the occupant enters or exits the means of transport 20, the entrance / exit 21 and the opening section 110 can be aligned so that the occupant can enter or exit the means of transport 20 smoothly.

[0076] Simultaneously, a door section 23 can be arranged in the inlet of the connecting section 22 of the means of transport 20. The door section 23 can be opened when the means of transport 20 enters the base plate 200.

[0077] The door section 23 is hinged and lockable within the opening of the connecting section 22. Under normal circumstances, the door section is closed, preventing any obstacle other than the contact section 210 from entering the connecting section 22 of the means of transport 20. The door section 23 opens when the means of transport 20 reaches the base plate 200, allowing the contact section 210 to enter the connecting section 22.

[0078] Door section 23 can be selectively opened or closed with the occupant's permission. When the means of transport 20 enters the receiving chamber S of the elevator 100, door section 23 can also be opened or closed while communicating with the control unit C located in structure 10 or the elevator 100.

[0079] The opening / closing structure of the door section 23 can be configured to open or close by rotating or sliding into the inlet of the connecting section 22, and opening and closing positions can be switched by control of a motor or actuator via the control unit C.

[0080] Simultaneously, the means of transport 20 can have a sensor 24. At least one or more cameras, an infrared sensor, a laser sensor, and a light detection and ranging (LiDAR) system can be used as sensor 24. Furthermore, various means of detecting an object located in the direction of travel of the means of transport 20 can be used selectively.

[0081] When the means of locomotion 20 reaches the base plate 200, the sensor 24 can therefore detect the position of the contact section 210, and the connecting section 22 can move in the direction of the contact section 210 when the means of locomotion 20 reaches the base plate 200 to align itself with the contact section 210.

[0082] This means that when the transport device 20 enters the receiving chamber S of the elevator 100, the sensor 24 can identify the base plate 200 and detect the position of the contact section 210 formed on the base plate 200, and the connecting section 22 can move towards the contact section 210. If the transport device 20 moves in a direction in which it is loaded onto the base plate 200, the transport device 20 can automatically move so that the connecting section 22 is directed towards the contact section 210.

[0083] Furthermore, a guide line 220 is formed on the base plate 200 to guide the entry direction of the means of transport 20, so that the sensor 24 of the means of transport 20 can detect the guide line 220, the means of transport 20 can move along the guide line 220 and the movement of the means of transport 20 can be guided in the direction of the middle section of the base plate 200.

[0084] When the means of locomotion 20 enters the receiving chamber S of the elevator 100, it moves such that the connecting section 22 comes into contact with the contact section 210, and its position is automatically aligned with the central section of the base plate 200, even if the occupant does not directly operate the means of locomotion 20. Therefore, the means of locomotion 20 can be easily positioned at a precise location on the base plate 200.

[0085] As described above, in the present disclosure the position of the means of locomotion 20 can be aligned with the central section of the base plate 200 by the connecting section 22 and the contact section 210, and convenience with regard to the situation in which the means of locomotion 20 is operating or the occupant is exiting the means of locomotion 20 can be ensured according to the position in which the base plate 200 rotates.

[0086] This means that when the means of transport 20 enters the receiving chamber S of the elevator 100, the means of transport 20 is guided to the central section of the base plate 200. When the means of transport 20 leaves the elevator 100, the base plate 200 rotates so that the direction of travel of the means of transport 20 and the opening section 110 of the elevator 100 are aligned, allowing the means of transport 20 to leave the elevator 100 simply by traveling straight ahead.

[0087] If only the occupant exits the elevator 100, the base plate 200 rotates so that the entrance / exit 21 of the means of transport 20 and the opening section 110 of the elevator 100 are aligned with each other, so that the occupant exiting the means of transport 20 can reach the opening section 110 of the elevator 100.

[0088] In the present disclosure, the multifunctional panel 300 can implement a lighting function and a vehicle washing function as well as the foothold function in the receiving space S of the elevator 100.

[0089] In the state in which the means of locomotion 20 is aligned with the base plate 200, the multifunctional plate 300 can be adapted to an outer circumferential shape of the means of locomotion 20 or be designed in such a way that it is larger than the outer circumferential shape.

[0090] With reference to Fig. 5 The multifunctional plate 300 can be arranged between the means of locomotion 20 and the opening section 110 of the elevator 100 in the state in which the position of the means of locomotion 20 is aligned by the base plate 200.

[0091] As described above, the multifunctional plate 300 is designed to conform to the outer circumference of the means of transport 20. A gap between the means of transport 20 and the opening section 110 can be minimized if the multifunctional plate 300 is positioned between the inlet / outlet 21 of the means of transport 20 and the opening section 110 of the elevator 100.

[0092] As described above, the multifunctional panel 300 can cover an area between the means of transport 20 and the opening section 110 when the foothold function is implemented, thus ensuring stability and comfort in relation to the situation in which the occupant enters or exits the means of transport 20.

[0093] Fig. Figure 9 is a view that exemplifies a state in which the multifunction plate 300 is moved to the top of the recording space S, and Fig. Figure 10 is a view that shows an example of a state in which the multifunction plate 300 is moved to a bottom of the recording space S.

[0094] A first lighting section 310 can be arranged on an upper surface of the multifunction plate 300, and the first lighting section 310 can be switched on and perform the lighting function when the multifunction plate 300 moves to the underside of the recording space S.

[0095] The first lighting section 310 can be equipped with an LED. The first lighting section 310 can be positioned on the upper surface of the multifunctional panel 300 and emit light upwards. If the multifunctional panel 300 moves downwards in the recording space S, the first lighting section 310 can be exposed on the upper surface of the multifunctional panel 300 and switched on, thus enabling various lighting functions to be implemented using light.

[0096] For example, the first lighting section 310 can be configured to generate a light pattern on the upper surface of the multifunction panel 300, connecting the entrance / exit 21 of the means of transport 20 and the opening section 110 of the elevator 100, and indicating the direction of entry or exit to the occupant. Furthermore, the first lighting section 310 can be switched on and generate a light pattern in the receiving chamber S of the elevator 100 when the multifunction panel 300 is moving downwards, and this light pattern can also be used as a design element.

[0097] In this case, a second lighting section 320 can be arranged on a lower surface of the multifunction plate 300, and the second lighting section 320 can be switched on and perform the lighting function when the multifunction plate 300 moves to the top of the recording space S.

[0098] The second lighting section 320 can be equipped with an LED. The second lighting section 320 can be positioned on the lower surface of the multifunctional panel 300 and emit light downwards. If the multifunctional panel 300 moves upwards in the recording space S, the second lighting section 320 can be exposed on its lower surface and switched on, allowing various lighting functions to be implemented using light.

[0099] For example, when the means of transport 20 leaves the receiving chamber S of the elevator 100, the second lighting section 320 can emit light towards the base plate 200 and indicate the direction of travel to the means of transport 20. Furthermore, the second lighting section 320 can be switched on and create a light pattern in the receiving chamber S of the elevator 100, and this light pattern can also be used as a design element.

[0100] Simultaneously, the elevator 100 can have a third lighting section 330, which is arranged at the top of the recording space S. When the multifunction panel 300 moves to the bottom of the recording space S, the third lighting section 330 can be switched on and perform the lighting function.

[0101] The third lighting section 330 can be configured as an LED. The third lighting section 330 can be located in the elevator 100 above the multifunctional panel 300 and configured to emit light towards the multifunctional panel 300. If the multifunctional panel 300 moves downwards in the receiving space S, the third lighting section 330 can shine light onto the upper surface of the multifunctional panel 300, and the third lighting section 330 can be switched on, thus enabling various lighting functions to be implemented on the multifunctional panel 300 using light.

[0102] For example, when the multifunction panel 300 moves downwards, the third lighting section 330 can shine light onto the upper surface of the multifunction panel 300 to guide the occupant entering or exiting the means of transport, or the third lighting section 330 can be configured to produce a light pattern so that the light pattern can be used as a design element.

[0103] Furthermore, the third lighting section 330 can also be switched on when the multifunction plate 300 is being moved upwards. When the light is emitted in the upward-moving state of the multifunction plate 300, an atmospheric lighting effect can be achieved through light reflection.

[0104] As described above, in the present disclosure the first, second and third lighting sections 310, 320 and 330 produce light in the receiving space S of the elevator 100, which can improve the comfort for the occupant and a feeling of luxury in the elevator 100.

[0105] Fig. Figure 11 is a view that shows an example of a state in which the multifunction plate 300 is moving and a vehicle wash section 340 is operating.

[0106] The vehicle wash section 340, configured for washing the means of transport 20, can be located on the multifunction panel 300. The vehicle wash section 340 can provide the vehicle wash function by operating when a door of the elevator 100 or the entrance / exit 21 of the means of transport 20 is closed.

[0107] When the vehicle wash function is activated, the multifunction plate 300 moves up or down together with the vehicle wash section 340.

[0108] In an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure, the vehicle washing section 340 can be arranged on the multifunctional plate 300 and wash the means of transport using a brush that rotates while moving together with the multifunctional plate 300, wash the means of transport by spraying high-pressure water without using a brush, or wash the means of transport using a device for spraying high-pressure air.

[0109] If, for example, the vehicle wash section 340 has a brush, the brush can be positioned on a section of the multifunction plate 300 facing the means of transport 20. As the multifunction plate 300 moves up or down, the brush can touch the outer circumference of the means of transport 20 and wash it.

[0110] If the vehicle wash section 340 is configured to spray water, a water storage tank and a pressure pump configured for spraying water can be located in the elevator 100. A hose connected to the water storage tank and the pressure pump can extend from the multifunction panel 300, and a spray position of the hose can be positioned to direct the spray towards the means of transport 20. In this case, the water storage tank of the elevator 100 can be supplied with water from the structure 10.

[0111] If the vehicle wash section 340 is configured to spray air, an air pump may be located in the elevator 100.

[0112] At least one of the embodiments mentioned above can be applied to the vehicle washing section 340, or the embodiments mentioned above can be applied to the vehicle washing section 340 in a complex manner. In addition to the embodiments mentioned above relating to the vehicle washing function, various means configured for washing the means of transport 20 can be used. Furthermore, the embodiments mentioned above propose various embodiments of the vehicle washing section 340 by way of example and are obvious configurations to which a typical vehicle washing technology is applied, and the embodiments mentioned above deviate from the core of the present disclosure. Therefore, a specific description is omitted.

[0113] As described above, in the present disclosure, the vehicle washing section 340, which is arranged on the multifunctional plate 300, can wash the means of transport 20. Since the multifunctional plate 300 moves up or down in conjunction with the operation of the vehicle washing section 340, the efficiency of washing the means of transport 20 can be improved.

[0114] Here, a first sterilization section 350, which is configured to sterilize the receiving chamber S of the elevator 100, is arranged on the multifunctional plate 300 and offers a sterilization function.

[0115] The first sterilization section 350 can be configured to sterilize an interior of the elevator 100 by emitting ultraviolet rays.

[0116] For example, the first sterilization section 350 can be an ultraviolet sterilization lamp. The first sterilization section 350 can be configured to emit ultraviolet rays of a single wavelength by using any LED with a UV-A wavelength, an LED with a UV-B wavelength, and an LED with a UV-C wavelength, or to emit ultraviolet rays of a mixed wavelength by using at least two LEDs with a UV-A wavelength, a UV-B wavelength, and a UV-C wavelength.

[0117] The first sterilization section 350 can be put into operation after the occupant has completely exited the admission room S of the elevator 100.

[0118] That is, the first sterilization section 350 operates in the case that the detection sensor 24, which is located in the receiving chamber S of the elevator 100, determines that there is no person or animal in the receiving chamber S, or in the case that the first sterilization section 350 communicates with the means of transport 20, and various types of sensors located in the means of transport 20 determine that there is no person or animal in the receiving chamber S.

[0119] Furthermore, it is detected whether the means of transport 20 leaves the receiving chamber S of the elevator 100 and whether the occupant exits the receiving chamber S of the elevator 100. The first sterilization section 350 can be activated if the means of transport 20 is not in the receiving chamber S. Therefore, the efficiency of sterilization of the receiving chamber S by the first sterilization section 350 can be ensured, which can subsequently improve user satisfaction with the elevator 100.

[0120] At the same time, the elevator 100 can have a second sterilization section 360, which is located at the top of the receiving chamber S, and the second sterilization section 360 can sterilize the multifunctional plate 300.

[0121] The second sterilization section 360 can be arranged in the elevator 100 above the multifunction plate 300 and configured to emit ultraviolet rays in the direction of the multifunction plate 300.

[0122] The second sterilization section 360 can, for example, be an ultraviolet sterilization lamp. The second sterilization section 360 can be configured to emit ultraviolet rays with a single wavelength by using any LED with a UV-A wavelength, an LED with a UV-B wavelength, and an LED with a UV-C wavelength, or to emit ultraviolet rays with a mixed wavelength, which is produced by using at least two LEDs with wavelengths of UV-A, UV-B, and UV-C.

[0123] The second sterilization section 360 can be activated when the multifunction plate 300 moves upwards, and the second sterilization section 360 can emit ultraviolet rays onto the upward-moving multifunction plate 300, thereby suppressing bacterial growth on the multifunction plate 300. This means that the multifunction plate 300 can then move downwards to serve as a support for the occupant and perform the vehicle wash function, so that soiling and bacterial growth are suppressed by the second sterilization section 360.

[0124] In this case, a cleaning section 380 can be arranged on the multifunctional plate 300 and attract foreign substances located on a lower part of the receiving chamber S and the base plate 200 as the multifunctional plate 300 moves downwards, thereby providing a cleaning function.

[0125] Cleaning section 380 may have a suction opening for drawing in dust and foreign objects. The elevator 100 may also have a storage unit configured to store dust and foreign objects drawn in by cleaning section 380, as well as a suction pump.

[0126] Because the cleaning section 380 is clearly designed for a vacuum cleaner, a detailed description is omitted. The suction opening for vacuuming up dust and foreign objects can be located on an outer circumference or a lower section of the multifunctional plate 300.

[0127] When the multi-function plate 300 moves downwards, the cleaning section 380 can therefore attract dust and foreign matter located on the base plate 200 and the lower part of the receiving chamber S and clean the receiving chamber S of the elevator 100, so that a comfortable condition of the receiving chamber S of the elevator 100 can be maintained.

[0128] Simultaneously, at least one sensor section 370 can be arranged on the multifunction plate 300. The sensor section 370 measures the distance between the multifunction plate 300 and the means of transport 20 and determines a position in which the multifunction plate 300 and the means of transport 20 do not obstruct each other.

[0129] Sensor section 370 is used to detect the distance between objects. At least one of the following sensors can be used: a laser sensor, a LiDAR sensor, an infrared sensor, or a camera. Furthermore, various embodiments for measuring distances between objects can be used.

[0130] This means that the sensor section 370 is arranged on the multifunction plate 300, and the sensor section 370 measures a distance between the multifunction plate 300 and the means of locomotion 20. Based on a distance between the multifunction plate 300 and the means of locomotion 20 measured by the sensor section 370 as described above, it can be determined whether the multifunction plate 300 is allowed to move downwards, and the position can be determined at which the multifunction plate 300 and the means of locomotion 20 do not obstruct each other, and the position of the means of locomotion 20 can be aligned by rotating the base plate 200.

[0131] The sensor section 370 can be arranged as a plurality of sensor sections 370 on the multifunction plate 300. Each sensor section 370 can measure the distance between the multifunction plate 300 and the means of transport 20, detect the current position of the means of transport 20, and determine whether the multifunction plate 300 and the means of transport 20 are obstructing each other.

[0132] Therefore, the base plate 200 can align a rotational position based on information entered via the sensor section 370 so that the means of transport 20 and the multifunction plate 300 do not interfere with each other.

[0133] This means that when the transport device 20 enters the receiving chamber S of the elevator 100 and is loaded onto the base plate 200, the sensor section 370 can measure the distance between the multifunction plate 300 and the transport device 20 and determine the degree of mutual interference between the multifunction plate 300 and the transport device 20. Based on the information obtained from the sensor section 370, it is possible to identify the position at which the transport device 20 and the multifunction plate 300 do not interfere with each other. Therefore, it is possible to realign the position of the transport device 20 by rotating the base plate 200 and prevent the multifunction plate 300 and the transport device 20 from interfering with each other.

[0134] Based on the information obtained from sensor section 370, the control unit C can derive the position in which the multifunction plate 300 and the means of locomotion 20 do not interfere with each other, and the control unit C can be configured to determine the rotational position of the base plate 200.

[0135] In this context, a building equipped with the elevator device for a means of transportation according to the exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure comprises the structure 10, which is configured as a multi-story structure and includes a passage 11 configured to connect floors and at least one opening / closing section 12; the elevator 100, which is configured to move upwards or downwards along the passage 11 of the structure 10; the receiving space S, which is configured to receive the means of transportation 20 and includes at least one opening section 110; the base plate 200, which is arranged in the elevator 100 and is configured to be rotatable on the floor surface of the receiving space S, and which is configured to align the entrance / exit 21 of the means of transportation 20 and the opening section 110 while rotating in the state in which the means of transportation 20 is loaded.and the multifunctional panel 300, which is arranged in the elevator 100 and configured to move in the upward / downward direction in the receiving space S, wherein the multifunctional panel 300 is configured to cover the base plate 200 between the entrance / exit 21 of the means of transport 20 and the opening section 110 of the elevator 100 as it moves downwards to provide the foothold function to the occupant.

[0136] Structure 10 can be a building, a parking garage tower or the like, designed as a multi-story structure.

[0137] Structure 10 can have a passage 11 configured to connect multiple floors. The elevator 100 can move up or down in the passage 11. The opening / closing section 12 can be located on a section of the passage 11 that corresponds to each of the floor levels. The opening / closing section 12 can be a door separating a room in structure 10 from the passage 11. The opening / closing section 12 can be selectively opened or closed by a control unit located in structure 10.

[0138] The base plate 200 is located in the elevator 100 and is configured to rotate on the floor of the receiving space S. When the transport vehicle 20 enters the receiving space S and is loaded onto the base plate 200, the base plate 200 can rotate to change the position of the transport vehicle 20.

[0139] The multifunction panel 300 moves upwards / downwards within the receiving space S of the elevator 100. When the multifunction panel 300 moves upwards, it does not obstruct the means of transport 20. When the multifunction panel 300 moves downwards, it provides the occupant with a footrest function by covering the base plate 200 between the entrance / exit 21 of the means of transport 20 and the opening section 110 of the elevator 100.

[0140] According to an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure, when the elevator 100 moves to the floor where the occupant wishes to exit the elevator 100, after the means of transport 20 has entered the receiving space S of the elevator 100, the entrance / exit 21 of the means of transport 20 and the opening section 110 are aligned by rotation of the base plate 200. After the multifunctional plate 300 has been moved to the underside of the elevator 100, the opening / closing section 12 of the structure 10 is opened, so that the gap between the entrance / exit 21 of the means of transport 20 and the structure 10 is covered by the base plate 200, and the occupant can enter or exit the means of transport 20 stably without experiencing any discomfort due to height differences.

[0141] According to the elevator device for a means of transport and the building which has the same structure as described above, the vehicle washing function is provided in the elevator to wash the means of transport for the period in which the means of transport is moved through the elevator, thereby reducing the time and cost required to wash the means of transport.

[0142] Furthermore, the footrest function is provided to the occupant entering or exiting the means of transport, so that the occupant can enter or exit the means of transport comfortably.

[0143] Furthermore, a clean condition is maintained in the elevator, a feeling of luxury is conveyed to the occupant using the elevator by implementing various lighting functions in the elevator, and satisfaction in elevator use is ensured by guiding the entry or exit direction for the occupant or the exit and entry direction for the means of transport through the provision of lighting.

[0144] Although the predetermined embodiments of the present disclosure have been illustrated and described, a person skilled in the art will recognize that the present disclosure can be modified and altered in various ways without deviating from the basic technical concept of the present disclosure as defined in the attached claims.
