Definitions

  • the invention relates to a transport device for the transport of motor vehicles in a building, and a method for adjusting motor vehicles.
  • the vehicles are parked without pallets (for example in accordance with EP-A 563 664), there is a need to remove them from the means of transport on the parking space or to reload them onto the means of transport when the vehicle is picked up.
  • the means of transport must be so low that they can drive out from under the vehicle, which has been lowered onto the floor of the parking space, and when they are picked up, they can enter under the vehicle, which has sunk even lower in the event of a tire damage.
  • the vehicles must be lifted up, and since a lifting device is not available at the parking spaces, this must be provided on the means of transport.
  • the problems described are less if the parking level of the vehicle is above the floor of the garage on which the means of transport are moving.
  • additional facilities on the building are required for the production of the parking level (for example according to WO-A 92/03629 or WO-A 92/10628) and the height is significantly increased.
  • the transport means For the palletless transport of the motor vehicle, the transport means have horizontally pivotable arms which grip and lift each wheel of the vehicle.
  • the means of transport must have different center distances different vehicles.
  • DE-C 38 20 891 or DE-C 39 09 702 it has already been proposed in DE-C 38 20 891 or DE-C 39 09 702 to subdivide the means of transport into two unrelated units.
  • the means of transport are track-bound and can therefore only drive under the motor vehicle in one direction, whereupon the arms are swung out in the correct position.
  • the invention has now set itself the task of creating an improved garage system in which both the building-related structural outlay and the equipment-related outlay on equipment are kept as low as possible.
  • the transport device has at least one in particular trackless transport element and for each motor vehicle at least two support elements that can be separated from the transport element on the parking space.
  • a transport device thus consists of several parts, of which the support elements always remain with the motor vehicle, while the much smaller number of transport elements is only used for transport to and from the parking space. After the vehicles and their support elements have been parked, the transport elements become free again and can be used to transport other vehicles.
  • the term means of transport is used for each transport unit necessary for a motor vehicle, which consists of one or two transport elements and two or four
  • the transport device has support elements for each adjustable vehicle, but significantly fewer transport elements.
  • the space requirement on the floor space is derived from the size, in particular the length, of the motor vehicle.
  • the parking space has no predetermined limit, but it will be regardless of the size of the motor vehicles
  • Each motor vehicle always connects to the motor vehicle in front of or next to it, preferably with a maximum space of 10 cm. Thanks to the separation of the support elements, the dimensions of the transport elements are reduced so that they can move under the parked vehicles. In this way, the occupancy density of the storage area can be increased significantly.
  • the support element has at least one suspension web that can be gripped by the lifting transport element. In this way, a minimum height of the means of transport can be achieved, since a
  • Raising the vehicle wheels by, for example, 1 or 2 cm is already sufficient for transport, and the suspension web is higher than the wheel support surface on the Support elements are located
  • Transport in a preferred embodiment can be increased again if two wheel support elements, in particular the two wheel support elements of each vehicle axle, can be connected to a separate transport element.
  • the means of transport for a vehicle consists of two independent transport elements, each of which is provided with two removable wheel support elements
  • a suspension web is provided on each wheel support element.
  • the length and width of this transport element are preferably selected so that it can also move between two transport elements transporting a motor vehicle, the spacing of which depends on the center distance of the transported motor vehicle
  • Transport elements are even smaller if they are each connected to only one wheel support element, so that the motor vehicle is loaded by four mutually independent transport elements, but the use of one or two transport elements per two-axis motor vehicle is preferable from a technical point of view
  • the necessary hold of the wheel in the wheel support element can preferably be achieved by having a support trough.
  • a high adjustable middle area is preferably provided on the support trough, so that the trough can be filled at least during the exit ⁇ Wise so that the wheel support elements are lowered in the extension area, possibly also in the entry area, to jaws which rise from the floor and which raise the middle area of the trough
  • a transport element according to the invention preferably has a frame which can be connected to at least one wheel support element and is arranged on a chassis which can be moved in at least two directions. From the combination of the two Directions can be put together any movement of the transport element and the means of transport.
  • the undercarriage can also be moved on at least one circular arc, so that the transport means can be rotated, for example, by 90 °. It is also advantageous if the undercarriage has at least two wheels which can each be pivoted by at least 90 °.
  • the chassis preferably consists of four wheels which can be pivoted at least 90 °.
  • the undercarriage is in particular electrically driven and can be equipped with preferably exchangeable batteries for this purpose.
  • At least two swiveling wheels are preferably driven, wherein individual motors or a common drive motor can be provided for the drive.
  • the pivotable wheels can also have a common pivot drive.
  • the transport elements have connecting elements that are height-adjustable relative to the wheels.
  • the lifting drive provided for this in the transport element preferably has a hydraulic unit acting horizontally in the transport element and a traction means which converts the horizontal movement into a vertical movement and is guided over at least one deflection roller and connected to the connecting element.
  • the frame of the transport element is also preferably lifted, by which the connecting elements protrude outwards.
  • Fig. 1 is a level of a parking garage with essential parts of the
  • FIG. 2 is a view of a means of transport in the receiving or parking position
  • FIG. 3 shows a schematic vertical section through the means of transport, the right half showing the transport position
  • FIG. 5 shows a horizontal section through a transport element
  • 6 shows a plan view of a steerable wheel of the undercarriage
  • FIG. 7 shows a side view of a steerable wheel
  • FIG. 8 shows a section along the line VIII-VIII of FIG. 6.
  • Parking garage or a warehouse has at least one level. Neither columns nor partitions are provided within each parking level, so that the size of each parking space 2 is adapted to the motor vehicle parked there. As can be seen, there are parking lanes of different widths when parking vehicles of different widths, and the number of parking spaces in the length of the parking space is also variable. The length and width of the footprint are selected so that the layout is as variable as possible without wasting space.
  • the footprint shown in Fig. 1 has, for example, a length of 22.5 m and a width of 8 m. Regardless of their size, the motor vehicles 6 are parked close to one another, with a safety distance of a maximum of 10 cm being maintained in particular in length.
  • the transport device 5 denotes a transfer or delivery station, or in the preferred case of a building with several levels, a lift.
  • the transport device In order to achieve the fastest possible access to each parked motor vehicle 6 in the dense arrangement of the motor vehicles 6 shown, or in order to be able to transport a newly arriving motor vehicle 6 to a parking space 2 that is not directly accessible, the transport device must have means of transport whose transport elements below the parked motor vehicles 6 can move as far as possible in all directions and are able to charge or unload the motor vehicle 6 at the respective parking space 2.
  • a means of transport is composed of at least one transport element 3 and at least two support elements for the wheels of the motor vehicle 6 that can be separated from the transport element 3.
  • a transport element 3 and two separable wheel support elements 4 are preferably provided for each vehicle axle, that is to say each conventional passenger car 6 is transported by two individual, independent transport elements 3, on which four individual wheel support elements 4 are provided, on which the vehicle parked in the parking space 2 remains.
  • the empty transport elements 3 are therefore so short and so narrow that they move under the parked vehicles 6 and can also cross a means of transport transporting a vehicle 6, as shown in FIG. 1.
  • Transport elements 3 are in particular trackless in order to be able to move transversely within the footprint, and can be moved remotely or autonomously, speaking sensors detect obstacles and control the transport elements.However, the mobility of the transport elements 3 is only insignificantly lower if they are track-bound, since in this case both transverse and longitudinal movements of the transport element 3 freed from the wheel support elements 4 are possible if corresponding guides are provided in the Floor are formed
  • a pick-up station there is a supply of wheel support elements 4, with an incoming vehicle 6 driving onto four of these wheel support elements 2 and 3 is shown.
  • the transport elements 3 are smaller in width than the smallest wheelbase of those vehicles that may be parked in the building, and have laterally displaceable strip-shaped connecting elements 27.
  • Each transport element 3 comprises a chassis 8 and a height-adjustable on the chassis 8 arranged
  • Lifting device 31, 32 actuated, via which the frame 30 is raised, the connecting elements 27 engaging over attachment webs 40 of the wheel support elements 4, and thus lifting the motor vehicle 6 (FIG. 3, right).
  • the frame 30 and the connecting elements 27 are lowered again , with the connecting elements 27 being detached from the hanging webs 40, and after the connecting elements 27 have been pulled in, the transport elements 3 are removed so that they can be used for the next means of transport. If a vehicle is brought to the receiving station, the wheel support elements 4 are raised from the ground Block 43 lowered so that the base plate 42 is raised and the support recess 41 of each wheel support element 4 is compensated (FIG. 4)
  • FIGS. 5 to 8 A preferred embodiment of a transport element 3 is shown in detail in FIGS. 5 to 8. It comprises a chassis 8 in which four wheels 7 are provided. Each wheel 7 is rotatably mounted on a bearing block 10 which can be rotated about a vertical axis by means of bearings 45 A wheel housing 9 is arranged which is fixed in the chassis 8.
  • the bearing block 10 carries rollers 17 on the top, which rotatably support a ring 11, which has an internal toothing 12 and an external toothing 16.
  • An intermediate gear 13 engages in the internal toothing 12 one Bevel gear 14 is connected. This meshes with a bevel gear 15, which is fixed to the wheel or the roller 7.
  • a pinion 18 of the travel drive engages in the external toothing of the ring 11 and comprises, for example, a common drive motor 20 and a traction mechanism gear 19 connecting all the pinions 18.
  • the wheels 7 can be pivoted by means of a swivel drive which has a double-acting hydraulic cylinder 23 with piston rods 22 on both sides, as well as links 24 and coupling rods 25.
  • the links 24 and the coupling rods 25 are articulated on steering pins 21 which are raised above the ring 17 and which are arranged on the rotatably mounted bearing block 10 of the wheel 7 and preferably form axle bolts of the rollers 17.
  • the undercarriage 8 also contains a hydraulic pump 36, a pressure tank 37, and control valves 39, via which the two hydraulic lifting devices 31, 32 and the four hydraulic extension devices 28, 29 are also operated.
  • Traction means 33 are fastened to the piston rods 32 of the lifting devices protruding from the pressure cylinders 31, each of which is guided over at least one roller 35 mounted in the lifting frame 30 and one roller 34 mounted in the chassis 8 and fastened to the frame 30.
  • the extension of the piston rods 32 therefore reduces the looping lengths of the rollers 34, so that the frame 30 rises relative to the chassis 8 (FIG. 3 on the right).
  • a control 38 and an exchangeable accumulator 44 are also arranged in each undercarriage. Instead of the hydraulic drives described for extending the connecting elements 27, for lifting the frame 30 and pivoting the wheels 7, electric drives can also be provided.
  • the connecting elements 27 which are pushed out engage under a suspension web formed by a bridge piece, which connects the two wheel support elements 4 of each pair of wheels.
  • the connecting elements 27 are additionally provided with laterally, in particular hydraulically extendable spacers which are braced against the wheel support elements 4 in order to prevent the bridge piece from bending.
