[0051]

[0052] Parking robots are systems developed to automatically park vehicles, address the shortage of parking spaces in cities, and enhance driver convenience. In particular, parking robots incorporating links perform vehicle lifting operations using multiple links and arms; however, conventional systems utilize complex gear and link structures that rotate other arms simultaneously when one arm operates, making assembly difficult and causing inconvenience during maintenance. Consequently, this degrades the user experience and hinders the adoption of automatic parking systems, necessitating the development of a clamping system capable of ensuring a simpler and more efficient structure while guaranteeing the safe lifting of vehicles.

[0053] In this regard, the present disclosure presents a parking robot that is structurally simple and has increased efficiency by deploying a lifting arm (300) using a power transmission device (120) such as a double nut screw. In addition, the parking robot of the present disclosure can ensure safe lifting of a vehicle by including a roller (360) and a stopper (340) in the lifting arm (300).

[0054]

[0055] Specifically, the parking robot will be described with reference to Fig. 1.

[0056] In one embodiment, the parking robot of the present disclosure may be composed of a base (700) in contact with the ground, a pair of lifting arms (300), and a pair of arm links (140) each connected to the lifting arms (300). The lifting arms (300) may be composed of a pair that is coupled to one side of the base (700), is embedded in the base (700) when stored, and rotates away from the base (700) when deployed. The arm links (140) may be composed of a pair corresponding to the lifting arms (300), with one end sliding in a direction closer to or further away from each other on the base (700), and the other end connected to the corresponding lifting arms (300), thereby enabling the pair of lifting arms (300) to be deployed or stored by sliding.

[0057] In one embodiment, the parking robot is designed in a modular form and can be applied to a robot or device intended for lifting a vehicle, and can be applied to vehicles and robots of various sizes by varying the size and spacing of the lifting arm (300). This modularization allows the parking robot to operate flexibly in various environments and enables the provision of customized solutions tailored to specific requirements.

[0058] In one embodiment, the lifting arm (300) has a rotation axis (390) formed inside the base (700) so that it can be deployed or stored based on the rotation axis (390). Additionally, the lifting arm (300) is configured as a pair facing each other symmetrically so that it can rotate simultaneously around the rotation axis (390). In this case, the rotation axis (390) is formed at one end of the pair of lifting arms (300) facing each other so that when deployed, the other end can be rotated radially so that it moves closer to the other end relative to the one end. Furthermore, the rotation axis (390) of the lifting arm (300) is connected to the base (700) by a hinge (320) so that when stored, it can be embedded in the base (700) by the elastic force of the hinge (320).

[0059]

[0060] Next, the structure of the housing (100) and lifting arm (300) of the present disclosure will be described with reference to FIGS. 2 to 4.

[0061] In one embodiment, the parking robot may further include a housing (100) formed on the inner side of the base (700) and connected to the lifting arm (300) via an arm link (140). A power transmission device (120) connected to the arm link (140) may be formed inside the housing (100), and a drive unit (500) that transmits power to the power transmission device (120) may be provided on the outside of the housing (100). Such a housing (100) can perform the role of increasing the stability of the parking robot and providing structural rigidity.

[0062] In one embodiment, the drive unit (500) may include a motor (520) and a reduction gear (540) as a device for deploying and retracting the lifting arm (300) by transmitting power to the lifting arm (300) through a power transmission device (120). The drive unit (500) may be connected to the power transmission device (120) on one side of the housing (100) to transmit driving force to the power transmission device (120). The drive unit (500) is configured to increase the overall efficiency of the parking robot, and the combination of the motor (520) and the reduction gear (540) enables stable power transmission.

[0063] In one embodiment, the motor (520) is a device for transmitting driving force to the power transmission device (120), and various types of motors (520), such as DC motors, AC motors, stepper motors, and servo motors, may be used. The reduction gear (540) is a device connected to the motor (520) to reduce rotational speed and increase output torque, and various types of reduction gears (540), such as gear type, belt type, and chain type, may be applied.

[0064] In one embodiment, the power transmission device (120) receives power from the driving unit (500) and transmits it to a pair of arm links (140), thereby allowing the arm links (140) to move further apart or closer to each other. Additionally, a plurality of pairs of lifting arms (300) may be provided and formed symmetrically on both sides of the base (700), and may be deployed or retracted simultaneously by the operation of the driving unit (500). That is, a pair of lifting arms (300) may be coupled to both sides of the base (700) and operated by a single driving unit (500) to operate simultaneously, or may be operated by a driving unit (500) coupled to each housing (100) to operate simultaneously. Of course, if necessary, the driving unit (500) for driving the pair of lifting arms (300) may be operated individually so that the pair of lifting arms (300) are operated at different times on both sides of the base (700).

[0065] In one embodiment, the power transmission device (120) may be a double nut ball screw and may be connected to a pair of arm links (140) with nuts (122, 124) to transmit power from the drive unit (500) to the arm links (140). In this case, one side of the pair of nuts (122, 124) is connected to the power transmission device (120) and the other side is connected to the arm links (140), and they may move simultaneously with each other to move closer to or further apart from each other depending on the operation of the drive unit (500). This method can increase the consistency of operation during the deployment and storage process of the lifting arm (300).

[0066] In one embodiment, when a pair of nuts (122, 124) are moved closer to each other by the operation of a driving unit (500), a pair of arm links (140) are moved closer to each other so that the lifting arm (300) is stored, and when a pair of nuts (122, 124) are moved further apart from each other, a pair of arm links (140) are moved further apart so that the lifting arm (300) can be deployed.

[0067] In one embodiment, a linear guide (160) for guiding the movement of double nuts (122, 124) may be included in the housing (100). The linear guide (160) is formed to extend in the longitudinal direction of the power transmission device (120), and as a pair of nuts (122, 124) move on the linear guide (160), one end of the arm link (140) can slide in a direction that moves closer to or further away from each other on the base (700). That is, one side of the pair of double nuts (122, 124) is connected to the power transmission device (120) and moves horizontally along the linear guide (160) according to the rotation of the power transmission device (120), thereby moving closer to or further away from each other; accordingly, as the other side connected to the arm link (140) moves closer to or further away from each other, the lifting arm (300) can be deployed or retracted.

[0068] In one embodiment, the arm link (140) has a shape that is bent in a radial direction, and a pair of arm links (140) are bent in different radial directions so that they can slide so that their ends come closer together when the lifting arm (300) is deployed. In this case, the arm link (140) may have a structure in which two links are combined, and the two links are formed to be bent in the same radial direction so as to facilitate the deployment of the lifting arm (300). Of course, in addition to the two-link structure, various types of arm link (140) structures may be applied to flexibly respond to the lifting requirements of various vehicles.

[0069] In one embodiment, the housing (100) is embedded in the base (700), and the lifting arm (300) is coupled along the longitudinal direction to one side of the housing (100), so that when stored, it is embedded in the base (700), and when deployed, it can be deployed in a direction away from the base (700). Additionally, the housing (100) may be formed in multiple numbers and may be formed symmetrically on both sides of the base (700), and in various situations such as modularizing the base (700), it may be formed on both sides or various sides of the base (700) as needed.

[0070]

[0071] With reference to FIGS. 5 and 6, the lifting arm (300) of the parking robot of the present disclosure will be described.

[0072] In one embodiment, the lifting arm (300) may include a roller (360) and a stopper (340). A pair of lifting arms (300) may be deployed so as to be close to each other toward the wheel (W), and the roller (360) may slide and lift the wheel (W), while the stopper (340) may stand upright by the weight of the wheel (W) to grip the wheel (W).

[0073] In one embodiment, a lifting arm (300) may include a plurality of rollers (360), and the plurality of rollers (360) may be spaced apart from each other along the longitudinal direction of the lifting arm (300), and a stopper (340) may be positioned between adjacent rollers (360). Through this configuration, the length of the lifting arm (300) can be adjusted by controlling the number of rollers (360), so that various types of assembly can be made possible in situations such as modularization of a parking robot.

[0074] In one embodiment, a plurality of stoppers (340) may be provided and may be connected to the lifting arm (300) by a hinge (342). As the stoppers (340) are connected by the hinge (342), one side of the stopper (340) is horizontally connected to the lifting arm (300) and the other side is formed to be inclined toward the upper side of the lifting arm (300), so that when the wheel (W) is lifted, the other side can be erected as one side is pressed. More specifically, as shown in FIG. 6, the wheel (W) of the vehicle is lifted to the upper surface of the lifting arm (300) through the roller (360), and accordingly, one side of the stopper (340) formed in a horizontal direction is pressed by the wheel (W), so that the other side can be erected. As the other side of the stopper (340) is erected, the wheel (W) can be stably fixed by being gripped by the other side of the stopper (340). When the wheel (W) is lowered from the lifting arm (300) after the lifting is completed, the stopper (340) connected by the hinge (342) can be restored so that one side is connected to the horizontal direction of the lifting arm (300) and the other side is inclined toward the upper direction of the lifting arm (300).

[0075] In one embodiment, a pair of lifting arms (300) may include a proximity sensor (180). The proximity sensor (180) may be installed in the housing (100) or the lifting arm (300) together with a proximity sensor dog, etc., and may be provided at a close end where the pair of lifting arms (300) face each other to detect whether the pair of lifting arms (300) are stored or deployed.

[0076] In one embodiment, a pair of lifting arms (300) may be joined in a direction parallel to one side of the base (700) when storage is complete, and aligned in a direction perpendicular to one side of the base (700) when deployment is complete.
