Today, as urban land resources are increasingly scarce while parking demand is growing day by day, mechanical parking spaces, as a parking solution that efficiently utilizes space, are gradually coming into people's view and playing an important role. With its diverse and practical functions, it not only effectively alleviates the parking problem but also brings many conveniences to car owners and parking lot operators. Next, let's take an in-depth look at what key functions mechanical parking spaces have.
1.Space expansion function
One of the most prominent functions of mechanical parking spaces is its powerful space expansion ability. Traditional flat parking lots are limited by land area, and the number of parking spaces they can provide is limited. However, mechanical parking spaces achieve the utilization of vertical directions and even multi-dimensional spaces through ingenious use of mechanical structures.
2.Automated access function
Most modern mechanical parking spaces are equipped with advanced automated control systems, making it easy and convenient to access and store vehicles. Car owners only need to drive their cars to the designated entrance car-carrying plate, park and get off. Then, through the operation panel (such as swiping a card, pressing the corresponding parking space button, or operating on a mobile phone APP in simple ways), the mechanical parking space will automatically start the corresponding mechanical device to work. Taking vertical lifting mechanical parking spaces as an example, after the system receives the instruction, the lifting mechanism will smoothly drive the car and the car-carrying plate to the preset designated level. Then, the translation device accurately places the car and the car-carrying plate on the corresponding parking position through horizontal expansion and contraction. When retrieving the car, the reverse operation is performed, and the vehicle can be quickly sent to the exit. Throughout the process, car owners do not need to laboriously reverse or find a parking space, greatly saving time. Even drivers with less proficient parking skills can easily handle it. For parking lot operators, the automated access function also reduces the workload of manually guiding vehicle parking, improves the overall operating efficiency of the parking lot, and reduces labor costs.
3.Safety protection function
Mechanical parking spaces attach great importance to the safety of vehicles and personnel. For this reason, they are equipped with multiple safety protection functions. Firstly, there is a limit device. It can precisely control the movement range of various components such as the carrier plate and lifting mechanism, avoiding collisions or damages caused by exceeding the normal operating range. For example, in lifting and sliding parking spaces, when the carrier plate rises or slides to the set highest and farthest positions, the limit switch will be triggered and the corresponding action will be stopped immediately to prevent excessive operation of the mechanical structure. The anti-falling device is also an extremely crucial link. Especially for mechanical parking spaces with vertical movement, in case of unexpected situations such as failures of key bearing components such as chains and steel wire ropes, the anti-falling device can quickly play a role and firmly lock the carrier plate to avoid vehicles falling from heights and ensure the safety of vehicles. In addition, there are photoelectric sensors. When a vehicle is entering or exiting a parking space or during the operation of mechanical devices, if people or other foreign objects accidentally enter the detection area, the photoelectric sensor will sense it in time and transmit the signal to the control system, causing the entire mechanical parking space to suspend operation to prevent accidents such as collisions and injuries to people, providing all-round protection for the parking process.
4.Vehicle management function
Mechanical parking spaces, in conjunction with an intelligent management system, also possess excellent vehicle management functions. On the one hand, real-time monitoring of parking space status can be achieved. Through devices such as sensors, it can be accurately known whether each parking space is vacant or occupied. This information is then fed back to the management background or displayed on the guidance display screen of the parking lot, facilitating car owners to quickly find vacant parking spaces and avoiding time waste and traffic congestion in the parking lot caused by blind searching for parking spaces. On the other hand, some mechanical parking space systems can also record information such as vehicle entry and exit times and parking duration. This is very useful for the billing management of parking lots. Operators can conduct reasonable charging based on these accurate data. At the same time, it is also convenient for car owners to understand their own parking situation. Moreover, for some long-term or temporary parking space reservation needs, the system can also make corresponding arrangements and allocations to make vehicle parking in the parking lot more orderly and efficient.
5.Flexible adaptation function
Mechanical parking spaces also have a certain degree of flexibility in design to adapt to different site environments and usage needs. From the perspective of the site, whether it is an indoor basement, a shopping mall underground parking lot, or an outdoor open-air site, as long as the corresponding basic conditions such as space and load-bearing capacity are met, a suitable type of mechanical parking space can be installed. Moreover, the shape and layout of mechanical parking spaces can be customized and adjusted according to the actual shape of the site and column grid spacing. For example, on an irregularly shaped plot, by reasonably planning the arrangement of mechanical parking spaces, a high space utilization rate can still be achieved. From the perspective of vehicle types, although mechanical parking spaces generally have certain standard restrictions on size and weight, with the development of technology today, they are constantly being improved to adapt to more types of vehicles. For example, some new types of mechanical parking spaces have increased the size of the vehicle carrier plate and enhanced the load-bearing capacity, which can meet the parking needs of different models such as common new energy vehicles and slightly larger SUVs, making the usage range more extensive.
