As described above, according to the present invention, the following effects are achieved.

(1) To take out a car that is on a fixed tray on the back side while a car is on a horizontal sliding tray, first move the car on the entrance side to either the left or right side with respect to the longitudinal direction of the tray. By moving the vehicle to the outside, a parking space is created and there is no hindrance, and since these operations are configured to be performed automatically, there is no need to take the vehicle on the entrance side out to the outside, which shortens the parking time. This can improve work efficiency.

(2) Conventional tandem or serial vertical circulation parking systems require a tray circulation drive and a tray for each, but since a single drive and tray can be shared, space is saved. The depth of the parking device is also reduced, and the opening can be installed with approximately the same dimensions as conventional devices, making it more economical and improving land use efficiency.

(3) Since only a single vertical drive source is required, power consumption can be reduced, parking efficiency can be improved, and safety can also be ensured.
