At this time, the hangar-side turning motor 30 turns the hangar-side turning arm 31 in the direction of the arrow R1 in FIG. 10A, and the hangar-side tip hardware 32 attached to the tip of the hangar-side turning arm 31 is guided into the guide groove of the pallet 10. 11 is sent. When the hangar side turning arm 31 makes one rotation, the shortest distance between the rotation center of the hangar side turning arm 31 and the guide groove 11 is shortened, so that the pallet 10 moves in the direction of the pallet lifting / lowering device 5 (FIG. 10-1). Middle arrow C direction).

  When the shortest distance between the rotation center of the hangar side turning arm 31 and the groove 11 becomes 0, when the hangar side turning arm 31 is further rotated, the shortest distance between the rotation center of the hangar side turning arm 31 and the guide groove 11 is Since it becomes gradually longer, the pallet 10 moves onto the pallet lifting / lowering device 5. When the hangar side turning arm 31 is further rotated, the hangar side end hardware 32 comes out of the guide groove 11 and the movement of the pallet 10 is stopped. The pallet 10 is supported by the fixed pallet support rail 40 on the top of the pallet lifting / lowering device 5.

  The entry / exit management device 7 raises the lifting / lowering portion 5L of the pallet lifting / lowering device 5 to scoop up the pallet on the fixed pallet support rail 40. Then, as shown in FIG. 11-2, the storage management device 7 stops the pallet 10 when the vehicle mounting surface of the pallet 10 becomes the same height as the vehicle entry surface PP of the deck 41 (step S102). When the pallet 10 is raised to the pallet turning position RP, the pallet 10 can be rotated at the pallet turning position RP by the turning portion 5R of the pallet lifting / lowering device 5. Thereby, the direction of the vehicle 6 mounted on the pallet 10 can be changed at the vehicle entry position LP.

  Next, as shown in FIGS. 12A and 12B, the warehouse management apparatus 7 lowers the transporter 20 to the vehicle entry position LP (step S103). At this time, the transporter 20 descends below the pallet 10 so that the transporter-side pallet support rail 22 included in the transporter 20 is positioned below the wheel 13 included in the pallet 10 (FIG. 14-2). . Here, the frame 21 of the transporter 20 has an opening 21H that can pass through the pallet 10 without interfering with the pallet 10 (FIG. 2). For this reason, the transporter 20 descends, passes through the pallet 10 on the vehicle entry surface PP, and the transporter 20 is positioned below the pallet 10. In this state, the transporter 20 stops at the vehicle entry position LP (step S104).

  Next, as shown in FIGS. 13A and 13C, the storage management device 7 moves the carrier side pallet support rail 22 included in the frame body 21 of the carrier 20 to the opening 21H side (arrow A in the drawing). Direction) (step S105). Thus, when the transporter 20 is lifted, the transporter-side pallet support rail 22 is engaged with the wheel 13 of the pallet 10 and the pallet 10 can be scooped up (FIG. 13-3). In this state, the vehicle 6 gets on the pallet 10 (step S106). The vehicle-side pallet support rail 22 may be moved after the vehicle 6 enters the pallet 10, or the vehicle 6 may enter the pallet 10 while moving the carrier-side pallet support rail 22.

  When the transporter side pallet support rail 22 is moved and the vehicle 6 gets on the pallet 10, the storage management device 7 drives the lift drive device 2 to the position of the parking chamber 4 into which the vehicle 6 is transported. Is raised (step S107). Accordingly, the pallet 10 on which the vehicle 6 is mounted is scooped up by the transporter 20 and rises. When the transporter 20 is moved up to the position of the parking room 4 into which the vehicle 6 is carried in, the warehouse management device 7 carries the vehicle 6 into the parking room 4 (step S108).

  At this time, as shown in FIGS. 14A and 14B, the turning motor 27 turns the carrier-side turning arm 25 in the direction of arrow R <b> 2 in FIG. 14-1 and attaches it to the tip of the carrier-side turning arm 25. A certain transporter-side tip hardware 26 is fed into the guide groove 11 of the pallet 10. When the transporter side turning arm 25 makes one rotation, the shortest distance between the rotation center of the transporter side turning arm 25 and the guide groove 11 is shortened, so that the pallet 10 moves in the direction of the parking chamber 4 (arrow in FIG. 14-2). B direction).

  After the shortest distance between the rotation center of the transporter-side swivel arm 25 and the groove 11 becomes 0, when the transporter-side swivel arm 25 is further rotated, the shortest distance between the rotation center of the transporter-side swivel arm 25 and the guide groove 11 is Since it becomes long gradually, the pallet 10 moves on the parking chamber side support rail 4B with which the parking chamber 4 is equipped. When the transporter-side turning arm 25 is further rotated, the transporter-side tip hardware 26 comes out of the guide groove 11 and the pallet 10 stops moving. The pallet 10 is supported by the parking room side support rail 4 </ b> B and stored in the parking room 4.

  When the vehicle 6 is continuously carried in, the carrier 20 starts to rise together with the pallet 10 on which the vehicle 6 is mounted, and then the vehicle 6 is carried into the parking chamber 4 and returned to the vehicle entry position LP. Then, the pallet 10 is pulled out to the vehicle entry position LP. Thus, since the pallet 10 can be kept waiting at the vehicle entry position LP during the movement operation of the carrier 20 (while the carrier 20 is away from the vehicle entry position LP), the next vehicle can be prepared for entry. The vehicle 6 can be received.

  FIG. 15 is a flowchart illustrating a procedure when the vehicle is released from the mechanical parking facility according to the first embodiment. First, the warehouse management apparatus 7 carries out the vehicle 6 from the parking room 4 (step S301). The pallet 10 carrying the vehicle 6 is moved from the parking chamber 4 onto the transporter 20 by the transporter-side turning arm 25 of the transporter 20 rotating in the direction opposite to the arrow R2 shown in FIG.

  Next, the storage management device 7 drives the lifting / lowering driving device 2 to lower the transporter 20 to the vehicle entry position LP (step S302), and causes the pallet lifting / lowering device 5 to support the pallet 10 (step S303). At this time, the pallet support 5s of the pallet lifting / lowering device 5 is raised to the pallet turning position RP (FIG. 11-2). In order to reverse the direction of the vehicle 6, the storage management device 7 drives the turning unit 5 </ b> R of the pallet lifting / turning device 5 to turn the pallet 10 on which the vehicle 6 is mounted 180 degrees (step S <b> 304).

  Here, after the pallet raising / lowering / swivel device 5 supports the pallet 10 and before the transporter 20 rises again, the loading / unloading management device 7 includes the transporter-side pallet support rail included in the frame 21 of the transporter 20. 22 is moved toward the opposite side of the opening 21H (the direction opposite to the arrow A in FIG. 13-1). Thereby, the engagement between the pallet 10 and the carrier-side pallet support rail 22 included in the frame 21 of the carrier 20 is released. Therefore, when the transporter 20 is raised in this state, the opening 21H of the frame body 21 included in the transporter 20 and the pallet 10 pass without interfering with each other.

  When the entry / exit management device 7 turns the pallet 10 on which the vehicle 6 is mounted by 180 degrees (step S304), the vehicle 6 gets off the pallet (step S305). In order to unload the next vehicle, the unloading / unloading management apparatus 7 raises the transporter 20 again (step S306). In addition, after the vehicle 6 leaves, when the next vehicle arrives, the transporter 20 stands by at the vehicle entry position LP. At this time, the engagement between the pallet 10 and the transporter side pallet support rail 22 is not released.

  When the transporter 20 is lifted (step S306), the storage management device 7 moves the pallet 10 to the pallet storage position TP. First, as shown in FIG. 10-2, the storage management device 7 uses the elevating part 5L of the pallet elevating / swivel device 5 to remove the pallet support 5s of the pallet elevating / swivel device 5 from the unloading / storage surface SP of the pallet 10. The pallet 10 is supported by the fixed pallet support rail 40. Next, the storage management device 7 drives the hangar side turning motor 30 to turn the hangar side turning arm 31 in the direction opposite to the arrow R1 in FIG. Move in the direction. Then, the pallet 10 is stacked and stored on the pallet 10 being stored on the pallet lifting device 8 (step S307).

  As described above, the mechanical parking facility according to the first embodiment includes a transporter having an opening through which a pallet on which a vehicle is mounted can pass, and a pallet storage for storing the pallet. Then, when the opening of the transporter passes through the pallet at the vehicle entry position, the transporter is disposed below the pallet, and in this state, the pallet is supported by the transporter-side pallet support means. As a result, the pallet can be moved to the vehicle mounting position after the transporter has left the vehicle entry position, so the pallet preparation period for mounting the vehicle is shortened, and the vehicle entry time is shortened. it can. In addition, after the vehicle is delivered, the vehicle can pass through the pallet on which the vehicle is not mounted and move to the next vehicle, so that the vehicle delivery time can be shortened. Thereby, the time required for loading / unloading of the vehicle can be shortened. In particular, when the vehicle is continuously received or the vehicle is discharged, the loading / unloading time can be effectively shortened.

  Compared with the pallet-type parking lot in which the pallet on which the vehicle is not mounted is stored in each parking room, the mechanical parking facility according to the first embodiment is shortened to 3/4, and the pallet is not used. In addition, we were able to achieve a storage time almost equivalent to that of a palletless mechanical parking facility that transports vehicles directly. As a result, the mechanical parking facility according to the first embodiment can achieve a storage time equivalent to that of the palletless type while realizing a reduction in manufacturing cost, which is an advantage of the pallet type.

  The mechanical parking facility according to the second embodiment has substantially the same configuration as that of the mechanical parking facility according to the first embodiment, except that a vehicle entry assisting means is provided at the opening of the deck. Since other configurations are the same as those of the first embodiment, the description thereof is omitted and the same components are denoted by the same reference numerals. In the following description, please refer to FIGS. 1 to 5 and FIGS. 9-1 to 14-2 as appropriate.

  FIG. 16 is a flowchart illustrating a procedure when the vehicle is stored in the mechanical parking facility according to the second embodiment. FIGS. 17A and 17B are explanatory diagrams illustrating a procedure when the vehicle is stored in the mechanical parking facility according to the second embodiment. 18A and 18B are explanatory diagrams illustrating the movable floor driving device. FIGS. 19A and 19B are explanatory diagrams illustrating a procedure when the vehicle is stored in the mechanical parking facility according to the second embodiment. The procedure of the loading / unloading method for the mechanical parking facility according to the second embodiment will be described with reference to these drawings. First, the case where a vehicle is stored in a mechanical parking facility will be described. In the following description, the pallet is moved by one hangar-side turning arm 31, but the pallet may be moved by two turning arms.

  When entering the vehicle 6 into the mechanical parking facility 1, the storage management device 7 takes out the pallet 10 stored in the pallet storage position TP (step S201), and is a fixed pallet placed at the vehicle entry position LP. The pallet 10 is mounted on the support rail 40 (FIGS. 17-1 and 17-2).

  The entry / exit management device 7 raises the lifting / lowering portion 5L of the pallet lifting / lowering device 5 to scoop up the pallet on the fixed pallet support rail 40. Then, as shown in FIG. 11-2, the storage management device 7 stops the pallet 10 when the vehicle mounting surface of the pallet 10 becomes the same height as the vehicle entry surface PP of the deck 41 (step S202). ). At the same time, the storage management device 7 operates the first and second movable floor driving devices 46 and 48 (FIGS. 18A and 18B) to move the first and second movable floors 45 and 44 to the deck 41. (Step S202; FIGS. 17-1 and 17-2). The first and second movable floors 45 and 44 may be operated before the pallet 10 is moved onto the fixed pallet support rail 40. Here, the first movable floor 45 and the second movable floor 44 correspond to vehicle entry assistance means.

  Here, the first and second movable floors 45 and 44 and the first and second movable floor driving devices 46 and 48 will be described. As shown in FIG. 17A, when the vehicle 6 enters the pallet 10 or when the vehicle 6 gets off from the pallet 10, the first movable floor 45 and the second movable floor 44 are Project between them and bridge between them. Further, when the transporter 20 scoops up the pallet 10, it is folded to the deck 41 side (the chain line in FIGS. 18-1 and 18-2).

  As illustrated in FIGS. 18A and 18B, the first movable floor 45 is disposed substantially orthogonal to the moving direction of the pallet 10. Further, the second movable floor 44 is provided substantially orthogonal to the direction in which the vehicle 6 enters. The first movable floor 45 and the second movable floor 44 rotate in the directions of arrows E and F, respectively, about the rotation shafts 47a and 47b. The first movable floor 45 is operated by a first movable floor driving device 46 attached to the pallet storage 3 side of the deck 41. The first movable floor drive device 46 includes a piston 46P, which pushes and pulls the first movable floor 45 to cause the first movable floor 45 to protrude and fold.

  The second movable floor 44 is operated by a second movable floor driving device 48 attached to the column 49 of the mechanical parking facility 1. The second movable floor drive device 48 and the second movable floor 44 are connected by a chain 48C, and the second movable floor drive device 48 rolls up or sends out the chain 48C to project the second movable floor 44. Let it fold again. Note that the first and second movable floors 45 and 44 and the first and second movable floor drive devices 46 and 48 are not limited to the types described here, but according to the specifications of the mechanical parking facility 1. It can be changed as appropriate.

  In this state, the vehicle 6 enters the pallet 10 (step S203). Thus, since the vehicle 6 can be loaded onto the pallet 10 without waiting for the transporter 20 to move to the vehicle entry position LP, the warehousing time can be made shorter than that in the first embodiment. Thereafter, the storage management device 7 operates the first and second movable floor driving devices 46 and 48 to operate the first and second movable floors 45 and 44 until they are substantially orthogonal to the deck 41 (step S204; FIG. 19-1, FIG. 19-2). The entry / exit management device 7 lowers the transporter 20 to the vehicle entry position LP (step S205; FIGS. 19-1 and 19-2). At this time, the transporter 20 descends below the pallet 10 so that the transporter-side pallet support rail 22 included in the transporter 20 is positioned below the wheel 13 included in the pallet 10 (FIG. 19-2). . In this state, the transporter 20 stops at the vehicle entry position LP (step S205).

  Next, as shown in FIGS. 13A and 13C, the storage management device 7 moves the carrier side pallet support rail 22 included in the frame body 21 of the carrier 20 to the opening 21H side (arrow A in the drawing). Direction) (step S206). And the storage management apparatus 7 drives the raising / lowering drive apparatus 2, and raises the carrying device 20 to the position of the parking chamber 4 which carries in the said vehicle 6 (step S207). Accordingly, the pallet 10 on which the vehicle 6 is mounted is scooped up by the transporter 20 and rises. When the transporter 20 is raised to the position of the parking room 4 into which the vehicle 6 is to be carried in, the warehouse management device 7 carries the vehicle 6 into the parking room 4 (step S208). This procedure is the same as in the first embodiment.

  When the vehicle 6 is continuously carried in, the carrier 20 starts to rise together with the pallet 10 on which the vehicle 6 is mounted, and then the vehicle 6 is carried into the parking chamber 4 and returned to the vehicle entry position LP. Then, the pallet 10 is pulled out to the vehicle entry position LP. Thus, since the pallet 10 can be waited at the vehicle entry position LP during the movement period of the transporter 20 and preparation for entry of the next vehicle can be made, the vehicle 6 can be stored.

  FIG. 20 is a flowchart illustrating a procedure when the vehicle is released from the mechanical parking facility according to the second embodiment. First, the warehouse management apparatus 7 carries out the vehicle 6 from the parking room 4 (step S401). Next, the warehouse management device 7 drives the lifting / lowering driving device 2 to lower the transporter 20 to the vehicle entry position LP (step S402), and causes the pallet lifting / lowering device 5 to support the pallet 10 (step S403). Here, after the pallet raising / lowering / swivel device 5 supports the pallet 10 and before the transporter 20 rises again, the loading / unloading management device 7 includes the transporter-side pallet support rail included in the frame 21 of the transporter 20. 22 is moved toward the opposite side of the opening 21H (the direction opposite to the arrow A in FIG. 13-1). Thereby, the engagement between the pallet 10 and the carrier-side pallet support rail 22 included in the frame 21 of the carrier 20 is released.

  Next, the storage management device 7 operates the first and second movable floor drive devices 46 and 48 to operate the first and second movable floors 45 and 44 until they are substantially parallel to the deck 41 (step). S404; FIGS. 19-1 and 19-2). At the same time, the warehouse management device 7 drives the turning unit 5R of the pallet lifting / turning device 5 to turn the pallet 10 on which the vehicle 6 is mounted 180 degrees (step S405). The pallet 10 may be turned after the first and second movable floors 45 and 44 are operated, or the first and second movable floors 45 and 44 may be operated after the pallet 10 is turned. .

  When the entry / exit management device 7 turns the pallet 10 on which the vehicle 6 is mounted by 180 degrees (step S405), the vehicle 6 gets off the pallet (step S406). And in order to make the next vehicle go out, the storage management apparatus 7 raises the transporter 20 again (step S407). When the transporter 20 rises (step S407), the storage / management apparatus 7 moves the pallet 10 to the pallet storage position TP (step S408).

  As described above, in the second embodiment, the pallet is placed under the pallet by passing the pallet through the opening at the vehicle entry position, and the pallet is supported by the pallet support means in this state. Accordingly, the pallet can be moved to the vehicle mounting position or the pallet storage position while the transporter is moving in the mechanical parking facility. In addition, when the vehicle enters the pallet, vehicle entry assisting means for assisting entry of the vehicle is disposed around the pallet. Thereby, since the vehicle can be loaded onto the pallet when the transporter is moving in the mechanical parking facility, the time for loading and unloading can be further shortened. In particular, when the vehicle is continuously received or the vehicle is discharged, the loading / unloading time can be further effectively shortened.

  As described above, the mechanical parking facility according to the present invention, the loading / unloading method to / from the mechanical parking facility, and the computer program for loading / unloading the mechanical parking facility are mounted on the pallet and stored in the parking room. In particular, it is suitable for shortening the time required for entering and leaving the vehicle.
