The working principle of vertical circulation


Vertical circulation The mechanical parking system primarily consists of a steel‑structure main frame, car‑carrying pallets, a drive system, a transmission system, a variable‑frequency PLC automatic control system (including an automatic fault‑diagnosis system), and auxiliary systems (including safety systems, lighting systems, backup power supplies, supply systems, and an intelligent parking‑fee collection system).

Vertical circulation operating principle: The motor drives the large and small sprockets via a reducer, which in turn drives the fork wheel to rotate the main shaft, ultimately driving the large sprocket. Periodically, vehicle pallets are mounted on the large chain, and the pallets move along with the chain as it performs a circular motion perpendicular to the ground.

Vertical circulation Using a variable-frequency drive and a PLC programmable controller, vehicles are loaded into the system in a stop‑and‑stop sequence: ① When storing a vehicle, the driver drives the car to the designated position on the storage rack and comes to a halt, then exits the facility. After swiping a card (or pressing a button) and starting the motor, the storage rack moves; once it rotates to the entry position, another rack stops, allowing the next storage operation to proceed.

② Upon vehicle pickup, the system activates by swiping a card (or pressing a button), causing the storage tray to follow its programmed path to the exit. The driver then enters the driving position on the storage tray and drives the vehicle out.

Vertical circulation The three-dimensional parking garage (universal code PCX) is an intelligent, unmanned mechanical parking system. It occupies a small footprint while offering high capacity, operates on a single power supply, features simple operation, and incurs low maintenance costs. It is ideally suited for locations with limited land resources but significant demand for parking spaces, particularly in hospitals, banks, supermarkets, scenic areas, and other venues where parking efficiency is paramount. Vertical‑cyclic systems typically employ small loops that are installed outdoors, while larger loops can be connected to the main building or configured as standalone outdoor garages.
