Structure design and kinematics simulation of a novel arm-type single stereo parking lot:

摘要

Space-saving, high-density stereo parking lots have gained considerable attention because of emerging limitations in ground and underground space. In this article, a novel arm-type single stereo parking lot is proposed to realize convenience and environmental friendliness. Many technical difficulties should be resolved before the safety performance of the stereo parking lot can be enhanced. Therefore, the structural characteristics, the load state and the motion situation should be analysed by numerical simulation to develop a reasonable design scheme. Finite element analysis was conducted on the steel tray platform, and kinematic analysis was performed on the end of novel arm-type single stereo parking lot. As a result, the position, velocity and acceleration curves as well as the maximum workspace were demonstrated by simulation in Pro/E. The simulation results demonstrate the correctness and accuracy of the stereo parking lot under motion mode feasible in residential areas and agency units and that the...
