Transferring carriage (100) of vehicles for automatic mechanic parking systems comprising at least a frame (1); means of handling of said carriage (100); and at least a device (13) of centering, raising and keeping up of the wheel (32) of a vehicle, said device (13) comprising at least a couple of clamp elements (17) and at least a movable support (14); each couple of clamp elements (17) being supported by said movable support (14); said movable support (14) being transversally translatable for positioning said clamp elements (17) of a same couple in proximity of a wheel (32) of an axle of a vehicle such that the centering, raising and keeping up of the two wheels (32) of an axle of a vehicle is achieved by means of a single transversal movement towards outside of the carriage of said at least one movable support (14) and of the couple of clamp elements (17) integral therewith.

The present invention provides a mechanical parking garage control system, configured to control storage and retrieval of a vehicle, and including: an identification apparatus, having a first camera module and a first fingerprint recognition module, where the first camera module is configured to capture a vehicle license plate image, and the first fingerprint recognition module is configured to capture fingerprint information; and a control apparatus, having a control module and a memory unit, wherein the control module identifies the vehicle license plate image to generate a vehicle license number and allocates a storage space to the vehicle according to the vehicle license number and the fingerprint information, and the memory unit is configured to store the vehicle license plate image, the vehicle license number, and the fingerprint information.

A carriage for handling a vehicle in an automatic parking system includes a frame axially movable along a first longitudinal axis, rotating clamps, each including a pair of counter-rotating arms rotating with respect to a vertical axis orthogonal to both the longitudinal axis and the transverse axis. The carriage includes a transverse-centering unit with transverse pushers, transversely extensible, moving along an axis parallel to the transverse axis and independent of the rotating clamps. In a first retracted position they do not interact with the vehicle wheels. When extended, they come into contact with at least one vehicle wheel. The extensible transverse pushers are on left and right sides of the carriage, and simultaneously move in a symmetrical extension, being operated by a respective motor positioned laterally of the longitudinal axis of the carriage. The extensible transverse pushers include a pantograph for longitudinally aligning the vehicle along the longitudinal axis.

Device for storing an automotive vehicle transversely relative to its longitudinal axis on a parking space of a storage facility, having a surface-manoeuvrable, driverless vehicle transporter which is disposed parallel to the longitudinal axis of the automotive vehicle when receiving the automotive vehicle and has horizontally extending pairs of forks which are disposed thereon at one side and perpendicularly, the forks of the pairs of forks being displaceable individually horizontally along the vehicle transporter and the pairs of forks moving under wheels respectively of a vehicle axle from one side of the automotive vehicle in order to grip the wheels by displacing the individual forks horizontally towards each other, whereupon the automotive vehicle is lifted for transporting, surface-manoeuvrable supports (4) being disposed on the vehicle transporter (1) respectively at the end-side, which supports extend horizontally and parallel to the pairs of forks (3) and, when the pairs of forks (3) move under the wheels (8), move past the automotive vehicle (7) at the front- and rear-side at a small spacing, the spacing between the supports (4) being adjustable, a measuring device (6), before the automotive vehicle (7) is received, determining its length, axle positions and the position of the automotive vehicle (7) in space, the surface-manoeuvrable, driverless transporting means (1) adapting, with the data transmitted from the measuring device (6), its length determined by the spacing of the supports (4) and the position of the pairs of forks (3) automatically to the dimensions of the automotive vehicle (7) to be received, and the load absorbed upon lifting the automotive vehicle (7) being transmitted, on the one hand, by the vehicle transporter (1) and, on the other hand, by the surface-manoeuvrable supports (4) to the travel surface.

Transferring carriage (100) of vehicles for automatic mechanic parking systems comprising at least a frame (1); means of handling of said carriage (100); and at least a device (13) of centering, raising and keeping up of the wheel (32) of a vehicle, said device (13) comprising at least a couple of clamp elements (17) and at least a movable support (14); each couple of clamp elements (17) being supported by said movable support (14); said movable support (14) being transversally translatable for positioning said clamp elements (17) of a same couple in proximity of a wheel (32) of an axle of a vehicle such that the centering, raising and keeping up of the two wheels (32) of an axle of a vehicle is achieved by means of a single transversal movement towards outside of the carriage of said at least one movable support (14) and of the couple of clamp elements (17) integral therewith.
