AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Existing mechanical parking systems face challenges in efficiently installing EV-compatible pallets at narrow installation sites due to the size requirements of EV vehicles and their charging equipment, leading to transportation bottlenecks and increased costs when using large trucks, and medium-sized trucks are less available for timely installation.

Method used

A method involving dividing the pallet into a first component smaller than the transport machine's loading platform and a second component, which is then connected at the installation site, along with a waterproofing mechanism to prevent water ingress and a ride-over suppression mechanism to prevent pallet collision.

Benefits of technology

Enables smooth installation of mechanical parking systems even on narrow routes using medium-sized trucks, reducing transportation and installation costs while ensuring legal compliance and maintaining system integrity.

Abstract

One of the objectives of this invention is to provide a method for installing a mechanical parking system that can be installed smoothly even if part of the route to the installation site is narrow. [Solution] A method for installing a mechanical parking system in one embodiment is a method for installing a mechanical parking system equipped with a vehicle-mounted pallet 10, which includes transporting the pallet 10 to the installation site of the mechanical parking system by a transport machine 80, separating it into a first component 20 smaller than the size of the loading platform 84 of the transport machine 80 and a second component 30 smaller than the first component 20, and attaching the second component 30 to the first component 20 at the installation site.
