Description

The present invention relates to fork parking with a berth using a comb-shaped cage and a method of entering and exiting the fork parking lot.

Fork parking is a mechanical parking device that uses a comb-shaped cage for loading and unloading a car and a comb-shaped tray for loading and storing the vehicle on a storage shelf.
Such fork parking is disclosed in, for example, Patent Documents 1 and 2.

Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication No. 2011-106124 Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication No. 2005-248668

As disclosed in Patent Document 1, the conventional fork parking uses a comb-shaped cage and a comb-shaped tray having teeth portions at different positions so as not to interfere with each other at the same position.
In addition, the comb-shaped cage has the wheels of the car mounted on its teeth to move up and down the hoistway, and the comb-shaped tray has the wheels of the car mounted on its teeth and traverses between the storage rack and the hoistway.

In the conventional fork parking described above, the driver drives the vehicle, carries the vehicle onto the comb-shaped cage located at the cage elevating part (for example, the lowermost end of the hoistway) at the time of warehousing, and at the same position at the time of warehousing. Carry out the car from the top of the comb cage.
However, the comb-shaped cage has four corners suspended by wires (or chains). Further, since the comb-shaped cage moves up and down the hoistway, the width and length are as small as possible. Therefore, in the conventional fork parking, the inside of the parking lot for entering and exiting is narrow because it is surrounded by shelf pillars, wires (or chains), etc., and there is a feeling of oppression at the time of entering and exiting, making it difficult to enter and exit.

In order to solve this problem, in Patent Document 2, a warehousing berth provided with two rows of belt conveyors before and after reaching the cage elevating part, and a vehicle transfer device for transferring a vehicle between the belt conveyor and the comb-shaped cage. To be equipped with.
However, the vehicle transfer device needs to transport the vehicle on the belt conveyor onto the comb cage without interfering with the comb cage, which complicates the structure and method.

The present invention has been devised to solve the above-mentioned problems. That is, an object of the present invention is to provide a fork parking lot with a berth, which is less oppressive and allows a driver to easily drive in and out of a car, and a method for entering and exiting the parking lot.
