Technology Proposal:

Inclined Conveyance for Multi- storiedParking

This Technology proposal is to design, build and operate a new typeof multi storied car parking system exclusive of competitors and to gain steady turnover with aninnovative technology.

Description

This multi storied car parking method used in conveying automotives, rolling stocks andmaterials, for parking and storing in buildings having multiple of floors at different levels. It isapplicable as a parking garage for auto mobiles as well as car storage for a showroom. Similarly this method is applicable to elevate the cars to residence at highrise apartments & to shopping malls in multi storied buildings.

Background

It is found that, in highly inhabited commercial and industrial cities space to park automotivesand stock materials is insufficient. It results the continuation of illegal parking on streets andobstruction of traffic. On the other hand space on ground level should be optimized by providingadditional floor space anywhere else for storing and parking automotives, rolling stocks, andmaterials accommodating large floor space.

Multy storied parking facilities with a ramp to drive the automobile to upper floors and

retrieving is always not possible due high energy consumption of vehicle and requirement ofadditional drivable space in parking yard. Recently, automatic multi-storey car parks are appearingas a solution to this problem. However, the cost of the mechanical equipments added to the buildingcost overweight the advantages of such parking facilities. Also such parking devices operated byhydraulic or cables on vertical direction to haul up and bring back to owner, consumes lot of energy,making these methods inevitably expensive.

The introduced method is a multi storied parking and conveying system less sophisticatedwith low maintenance and operational cost to provide a multi storied parking and storing facility thatcould be constructed economically.

More over the inclined conveyance method is having the advantage of pulling load instead oflifting it, to minimize energy required during haulage and initiating the motion.

This Technology would generate steady return from a limitedcapital of investment.

In this Automated parking method elevator is driven along rails, carrying theautomobile by means of over head traction to desired parking floor.

Summary of the proposed method

This method of Automobilesparking comprises a multi storiedbuilding and an inclined hoist way.The elevator is driven along rails,carrying the automobile in theinclined hoist way by means of overhead traction to desired parking floor.

This elevated parking system having ahoist way, comprise of rails held ontwo structural beams at sameinclination, connected with the building structure. Therefore the elevator travels along the rail trackextending though multiple of parking floors between top most and the lowest parking floor includingthe loading station.

The hoist way takes shape of an inclined passage providing access for the elevator trolley to moveon wheels inside the vacant passage on a pair of rails secured to a pair of structural beams supportedby the building structure along the same inclination.

The elevator trolley constitutes a carriage frame running on wheels engaged with the railtrack.The loading platform, of the elevator trolley held in horizontal position between two arms ofcarriage frame resting on a pair of inclined rails. The passage between two rail tracksaccommodating the elevator trolley. The elevator trolley is maintained in position and controlled bycables secured to the upper end of the elevator trolley by traction pulley driven by overheadelectrical motor.The opening at any floor and the platform of the elevator trolley are constructed in such a way that,when the platform reaches any floor, this floor and the elevator platform creates a drive way for thehoisted automobile to drive in to the desired floor.

There are two types of propelling methods applicable in inclined conveyance.

1. The elevator can be accompanied by a counter weight driven in another railing system which

can be a vertical hoist way

If the counter weight is driven in a vertical hoist way, the vertical distance available totravel the counter weight is shorter than the distance travel by the elevator trolley along the inclinedpath between two ends. To solve this problem the counter weight is suspended on the cables drawnover traction pulley and suspended the balancing weight on another sheave to returns the cable endto a stationary grip at a higher level. So that, the counter weight travels in opposite direction at halfthe speed of elevator, which is traveling along the inclined track. As the platform goes up, thecounterweight goes down, and vice versa. This manner the weight of the elevator is balanced by thecounterweight which is typically higher than the weight of the elevator platform.

2. A similar hoist way situated in opposed manner

In this method of operationcounter weight can be another

trolley driven in a hoist way situatedequally opposite manner to balancewith the first elevator trolley. Thisway two elevator trolleys are usedat the same time, one on each sideof the overhead traction pulley bycreating locomotion alternatelyreversing the direction of the drivemechanism.

Thus the load on elevatormotor may be advantageously minimized by attaching a counter weight driven on opposite directionin separate hoist way accompanied by anotherrail system. When the elevator trolley goes up,the counterweight goes down, and vice versa.

Elevator Trolley

The elevator is having the platform of rigid surface maintained in horizontal position, sothat the automobiles from any floor could be driven in and out the elevator by the driver, when itreaches the designated floor. A close tolerance is maintained between the elevator platform sill andthe sill of open space of the floor in hoist way at any floor, serving as the drivable access to parkingspaces on the required floor.

The electrical cables and communication cables connected to mobile trolley to function itsequipments and controls are drawn from fixed locations. An unobstructed access is provided alongthe inclined path and in vertical hoist way for these cables to flex as desired during the mobility ofelevator.

Advantageously, traction motor directed by the controller typically a relay logic or computerizeddevice that directs starting, acceleration, deceleration and stopping of the elevator platform.

The inclined vehicle conveyance also provided with suitable braking systems and safeties that grabonto the rail when the car moves too fast and whenever required to stop, like any other tractioncable elevator system operates. The bottom of the shaft of elevator and balance weight, are mountedwith heavy-duty shock absorber systems to soften the elevator system landing.Advantageously, the platform of the elevator and the loading floor are held together while theparking vehicle drives in and out of the elevator.

This elevated car parking system is

less complicated,

lesser maintenance and operational cost,

Lesser construction cost.

A potential investment opportunity generating steady return !!!
