Description

本発明は、車両を自動で搬送する車両搬送装置に関する。 The present invention relates to a vehicle transport device that automatically transports a vehicle.

工場で車両が完成したら、完成車両をストックする車両待機場まで搬送される。このような車両の搬送は、通常、複数の車両を搭載可能なトレーラーを用いて行われるが、この場合、トレーラーを運転する作業者が必要になるため、コストアップを招く。 When the vehicle is completed at the factory, it is transported to the vehicle waiting area where the completed vehicle is stocked. Such transportation of a vehicle is usually carried out by using a trailer capable of mounting a plurality of vehicles, but in this case, a worker who drives the trailer is required, which causes an increase in cost.

そこで、下記の特許文献1には、車両を自動で搬送する自走式の車両搬送装置が示されている。このような車両搬送装置を用いれば、トレーラーを運転する作業者が不要となるため、低コスト化が図られる。 Therefore, Patent Document 1 below discloses a self-propelled vehicle transport device that automatically transports a vehicle. If such a vehicle transport device is used, an operator who drives a trailer is not required, so that the cost can be reduced.

特開2019−78099号公報JP-A-2019-78099

上記のような自走式の車両搬送装置には、安全性を高めるために、進行方向前方を照らすためのライトを設けることがある。しかし、進行方向前方を十分に明るくするために、車両搬送装置に大型のライトを搭載すると、コスト高を招く。 In order to enhance safety, the self-propelled vehicle transport device as described above may be provided with a light for illuminating the front in the traveling direction. However, if a large light is mounted on the vehicle transport device in order to sufficiently brighten the front in the traveling direction, the cost will increase.

例えば、車両搬送装置に搭載された車両のフロントライトを点灯すれば、車両搬送装置に大型のライトを設けることなく、進行方向前方を十分に明るくすることができる。しかし、車両のフロントライトを点灯し続けると、車両のバッテリーに充電されている電力が減ってしまい、最悪の場合バッテリーの充電が切れてしまう恐れがある。 For example, by turning on the front light of the vehicle mounted on the vehicle transport device, it is possible to sufficiently brighten the front in the traveling direction without providing a large light on the vehicle transport device. However, if the front light of the vehicle is kept on, the electric power charged in the vehicle battery is reduced, and in the worst case, the battery may be depleted.

そこで、本発明は、車両搬送装置で車両を自動で搬送するにあたり、車両搬送装置の高コスト化や車両のバッテリーの電力低下を招くことなく、進行方向前方を十分に明るくすることを目的とする。 Therefore, an object of the present invention is to sufficiently brighten the front in the traveling direction without increasing the cost of the vehicle transport device and reducing the power consumption of the vehicle battery when the vehicle is automatically transported by the vehicle transport device. ..

前記課題を解決するために、本発明は、車両のタイヤが搭載される本体と、前記本体に取り付けられた車輪と、前記車輪を回転駆動する駆動手段と、前記駆動手段を制御する制御部と、前記駆動手段に電力を供給するバッテリーと、前記本体に搭載された車両のライトと前記バッテリーとを電気的に接続する接続手段とを備えた車両搬送装置を提供する。 In order to solve the above problems, the present invention comprises a main body on which vehicle tires are mounted, wheels attached to the main body, a driving means for rotationally driving the wheels, and a control unit for controlling the driving means. Provided is a vehicle transport device including a battery for supplying electric power to the drive means, and a connection means for electrically connecting a vehicle light mounted on the main body and the battery.

このように、車両搬送装置のバッテリーを車両のライトと接続し、車両搬送装置のバッテリーの電力で車両のライトを点灯させることで、車両のバッテリーの電力低下を回避することができる。 In this way, by connecting the battery of the vehicle transport device to the light of the vehicle and turning on the light of the vehicle with the power of the battery of the vehicle transport device, it is possible to avoid a decrease in the power of the battery of the vehicle.

以上のように、車両搬送装置で車両を自動で搬送するにあたり、車両のバッテリーを用いずに車両のライトを点灯させることで、車両搬送装置の高コスト化や車両のバッテリーの電力低下を招くことなく、進行方向前方を十分に明るくすることができる。 As described above, when the vehicle is automatically transported by the vehicle transport device, by turning on the vehicle light without using the vehicle battery, the cost of the vehicle transport device is increased and the power consumption of the vehicle battery is reduced. It is possible to sufficiently brighten the front in the direction of travel.

In the following description of each part of the vehicle transport device 1, the vehicle width direction (horizontal direction in FIGS. 2 and 3) of the vehicle C is set to the “width direction” with the vehicle C mounted on the vehicle transport device 1. The front (left side of FIG. 1, lower side of FIG. 3) and rear (right side of FIG. 1, upper side of FIG. 3) of the vehicle C are referred to as "front" and "rear", respectively.

本体2の上面には、車両Cの前輪タイヤW1の転がりを防止する車輪止め5が設けられる。本体2には、駆動輪ユニット3に電力を供給するバッテリー6と、駆動輪ユニット3を制御する制御部7とが搭載される(図3参照)。 A wheel chock 5 for preventing the front wheel tire W1 of the vehicle C from rolling is provided on the upper surface of the main body 2. The main body 2 is equipped with a battery 6 that supplies electric power to the drive wheel unit 3 and a control unit 7 that controls the drive wheel unit 3 (see FIG. 3).

駆動輪ユニット3は、図4に示すように、駆動輪9と、駆動輪9を軸心周りに回転駆動する駆動手段と、本体2に固定され、駆動輪9及び駆動手段を収容するケーシング13とを備える。 As shown in FIG. 4, the drive wheel unit 3 includes a drive wheel 9, a drive means for rotationally driving the drive wheel 9 around an axis, and a casing 13 fixed to the main body 2 and accommodating the drive wheel 9 and the drive means. And.

駆動輪9は、同軸上に並べて配された一対の車輪10で構成される。一対の車輪10の外径は等しく、図示例では、同一の車輪10を軸心方向に対向させて使用している。 The drive wheels 9 are composed of a pair of wheels 10 arranged coaxially. The outer diameters of the pair of wheels 10 are the same, and in the illustrated example, the same wheels 10 are used facing each other in the axial direction.

駆動手段は、例えば、車輪10ごとに設けられたモータで構成され、本実施形態では、各車輪10の内周に配されたインホイールモータ11で構成される。インホイールモータ11の回転軸11aは、車輪10の軸心に固定される。各インホイールモータ11は、バッテリー6及び制御部7(図3参照)と接続され、制御部7からの指令に基づいて回転駆動される。各インホイールモータ11の本体11bは、転舵軸12に固定される。転舵軸12は、ケーシング13に固定されたフレーム14に、軸受15を介して自由回転可能な状態で取り付けられる(すなわち、360°転舵可能とされる)。以上により、一対の車輪10からなる駆動輪9が、本体2に対して転舵軸12を中心に一体に回転可能とされる。 The drive means is composed of, for example, a motor provided for each wheel 10, and in the present embodiment, is composed of an in-wheel motor 11 arranged on the inner circumference of each wheel 10. The rotation shaft 11a of the in-wheel motor 11 is fixed to the axis of the wheel 10. Each in-wheel motor 11 is connected to a battery 6 and a control unit 7 (see FIG. 3), and is rotationally driven based on a command from the control unit 7. The main body 11b of each in-wheel motor 11 is fixed to the steering shaft 12. The steering shaft 12 is attached to the frame 14 fixed to the casing 13 in a state in which it can freely rotate via the bearing 15 (that is, 360 ° steering is possible). As described above, the drive wheel 9 composed of the pair of wheels 10 can rotate integrally with the main body 2 about the steering shaft 12.

補助輪4は、駆動輪9の軸心よりも前方又は後方あるいはこれらの双方に設けられ、本実施形態では、駆動輪9の軸心よりも前方に設けられる。補助輪4の数は特に限定されず、例えば幅方向に離隔した2箇所に設けられる。各補助輪4は、駆動輪9の車輪10よりも外径が小さい車輪で構成される。各補助輪4は、自身の軸心周りに回転自在で、且つ、鉛直方向の回転軸周りに回転自在な状態で、本体2に取り付けられる。 The training wheels 4 are provided in front of, behind, or both of the axes of the drive wheels 9, and in the present embodiment, are provided in front of the axes of the drive wheels 9. The number of training wheels 4 is not particularly limited, and is provided at two locations separated in the width direction, for example. Each auxiliary wheel 4 is composed of wheels having an outer diameter smaller than that of the wheels 10 of the drive wheels 9. Each training wheel 4 is attached to the main body 2 in a state where it can rotate around its own axis and around a vertical rotation axis.

受信器8は、システム制御部からの電波を受信可能な位置に設けられ、制御部7と接続される。本実施形態では、図1及び図2に示すように、搭載される車両Cの上面と略同じ高さに受信器8が設けられる。図示例では、駆動輪ユニット3のケーシング13から上方に延びた支柱16の上端に受信器8が取り付けられる。受信器8は、例えば、各駆動輪ユニット3の上方に一個ずつ設けられる。 The receiver 8 is provided at a position where it can receive radio waves from the system control unit, and is connected to the control unit 7. In the present embodiment, as shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the receiver 8 is provided at substantially the same height as the upper surface of the vehicle C to be mounted. In the illustrated example, the receiver 8 is attached to the upper end of the support column 16 extending upward from the casing 13 of the drive wheel unit 3. One receiver 8 is provided above each drive wheel unit 3, for example.

車両搬送装置1には、本発明の特徴的構成である接続手段として、ケーブル20が設けられる(図2参照)。ケーブル20は、車両搬送装置1のバッテリー6と、車両CのライトLを含む電気回路(例えば、ライトLと接続された配線や、車両Cのバッテリー等)とを電気的に接続する。本実施形態では、ケーブル20の一端が、車両搬送装置1のバッテリー6に予め接続されており、ケーブル20の他端を、本体2に搭載された車両CのライトLを含む電気回路に接続することで、バッテリー6とライトLとが電気的に接続される。例えば、車両Cに、外部からの電力をライトLに供給するための端子を設けておき、この端子にケーブル20の他端を接続することで、バッテリー6とライトLとが電気的に接続される。この他、ケーブル20の他端を、車両Cのバッテリーに直接接続してもよい。 The vehicle transport device 1 is provided with a cable 20 as a connecting means which is a characteristic configuration of the present invention (see FIG. 2). The cable 20 electrically connects the battery 6 of the vehicle carrier 1 and the electric circuit including the light L of the vehicle C (for example, the wiring connected to the light L, the battery of the vehicle C, etc.). In the present embodiment, one end of the cable 20 is previously connected to the battery 6 of the vehicle transport device 1, and the other end of the cable 20 is connected to an electric circuit including a light L of the vehicle C mounted on the main body 2. As a result, the battery 6 and the light L are electrically connected. For example, the vehicle C is provided with a terminal for supplying electric power from the outside to the light L, and by connecting the other end of the cable 20 to this terminal, the battery 6 and the light L are electrically connected. NS. In addition, the other end of the cable 20 may be directly connected to the battery of the vehicle C.

以下、上記の車両搬送装置1により車両Cを搬送する手順を説明する。 Hereinafter, a procedure for transporting the vehicle C by the vehicle transport device 1 described above will be described.

まず、工場で完成した車両Cの前部を図示しないリフト手段で上昇させ、この状態で、車両Cの前部の下方に車両搬送装置1の本体2を潜り込ませる。そして、リフト手段で車両Cの前部を降下させ、左右の前輪タイヤW1を車両搬送装置1の本体2の上に搭載する。このとき、各前輪タイヤW1を前後一対の車輪止め5の間に嵌まり込ませることで、本体2上での前輪タイヤW1の前後移動が規制される(図1参照)。 First, the front part of the vehicle C completed at the factory is raised by a lift means (not shown), and in this state, the main body 2 of the vehicle transport device 1 is made to slip under the front part of the vehicle C. Then, the front portion of the vehicle C is lowered by the lifting means, and the left and right front wheel tires W1 are mounted on the main body 2 of the vehicle transport device 1. At this time, by fitting each front wheel tire W1 between the pair of front and rear wheel chocks 5, the front and rear movement of the front wheel tire W1 on the main body 2 is restricted (see FIG. 1).

そして、車両搬送装置1のバッテリー6と、当該車両搬送装置1に搭載された車両CのライトLとを、ケーブル20を介して電気的に接続する。例えば、一端が車両搬送装置1のバッテリー6に接続されたケーブル20の他端を、車両Cに設けられた端子に接続することにより、車両搬送装置1のバッテリー6と車両CのライトLとが電気的に接続される。ケーブル20の他端を車両Cの端子に接続する作業は、作業者が行ってもよいし、車両搬送装置1に設けられた駆動機構(シリンダ等)により自動で行ってもよい。 Then, the battery 6 of the vehicle transport device 1 and the light L of the vehicle C mounted on the vehicle transport device 1 are electrically connected via the cable 20. For example, by connecting the other end of the cable 20 whose one end is connected to the battery 6 of the vehicle transport device 1 to the terminal provided on the vehicle C, the battery 6 of the vehicle transport device 1 and the light L of the vehicle C can be connected. It is electrically connected. The work of connecting the other end of the cable 20 to the terminal of the vehicle C may be performed by an operator, or may be automatically performed by a drive mechanism (cylinder or the like) provided in the vehicle transport device 1.

その後、車両CのライトLを点灯する。ライトLの点灯は、作業者が車両Cを操作することで行ってもよいし、システム制御部からの無線指令に基づいて自動で行ってもよい。このとき、ライトLは、車両搬送装置1のバッテリー6から供給される電力により点灯する。 After that, the light L of the vehicle C is turned on. The light L may be turned on by the operator operating the vehicle C, or may be automatically turned on based on a radio command from the system control unit. At this time, the light L is turned on by the electric power supplied from the battery 6 of the vehicle transport device 1.

このように、車両搬送装置1のバッテリー6の電力で車両CのライトLを点灯することで、新品の車両Cのバッテリーの電力低下を防止できる。また、車両搬送装置1のバッテリー6は、重量物である車両Cを工場からコンテナヤードまで搬送するために大きな最大充電容量を有し、例えば、車両C(特に、エンジンのみを駆動源とする車両)のバッテリーの5〜30倍程度の最大充電容量を有する。このため、車両搬送装置1のバッテリー6は、車両CのライトLを点灯するために必要な電力を十分に供給することができる。 In this way, by turning on the light L of the vehicle C with the electric power of the battery 6 of the vehicle transport device 1, it is possible to prevent the power reduction of the battery of the new vehicle C. Further, the battery 6 of the vehicle transport device 1 has a large maximum charge capacity for transporting the heavy vehicle C from the factory to the container yard. For example, the vehicle C (particularly, a vehicle whose drive source is only the engine). ) Has a maximum charge capacity of about 5 to 30 times that of the battery. Therefore, the battery 6 of the vehicle transport device 1 can sufficiently supply the electric power required to turn on the light L of the vehicle C.

こうして、車両Cの前輪タイヤW1を車両搬送装置1に搭載し、後輪タイヤW2を接地した状態で、車両CのライトLを点灯しながら車両搬送装置1を駆動して車両Cを搬送する。具体的には、システム制御部からの指令を車両搬送装置1の受信器8が受信し、この指令が制御部7に伝達され、この指令に従って制御部7が各駆動輪9の駆動手段(インホイールモータ11)を駆動する。このとき、各駆動輪9の一対の車輪10を駆動するインホイールモータ11のトルクを異ならせることで、各駆動輪9を転舵させて車両搬送装置1をカーブさせることができる。 In this way, the front wheel tire W1 of the vehicle C is mounted on the vehicle transport device 1, and the vehicle transport device 1 is driven to transport the vehicle C while turning on the light L of the vehicle C in a state where the rear wheel tire W2 is in contact with the ground. Specifically, the receiver 8 of the vehicle transport device 1 receives a command from the system control unit, this command is transmitted to the control unit 7, and the control unit 7 causes the drive means (in) of each drive wheel 9 according to this command. Drives the wheel motor 11). At this time, by making the torques of the in-wheel motors 11 that drive the pair of wheels 10 of each drive wheel 9 different, each drive wheel 9 can be steered and the vehicle transport device 1 can be curved.

こうして、車両搬送装置1が、システム制御部からの指令に従って所定の経路を走行し、所定の場所(例えばコンテナヤード)まで車両Cを搬送する。そして、図示しないリフト手段で車両Cの前部を上昇させ、この状態で車両搬送装置1を前方に走行させて車両Cの下方から退避させる。その後、リフト手段で車両Cの前部を降下させ、前輪タイヤW1を接地させる。そして、車両Cを降ろして空になった車両搬送装置1を工場まで走行させ、この車両搬送装置1に新たな車両Cを搭載してコンテナヤードまで搬送する。以上を繰り返すことにより、工場からコンテナヤードまで車両Cを自動で順次搬送することができる。 In this way, the vehicle transport device 1 travels on a predetermined route according to a command from the system control unit, and transports the vehicle C to a predetermined place (for example, a container yard). Then, the front portion of the vehicle C is raised by a lift means (not shown), and in this state, the vehicle transport device 1 is moved forward and retracted from below the vehicle C. After that, the front part of the vehicle C is lowered by the lifting means, and the front wheel tire W1 is brought into contact with the ground. Then, the vehicle C is lowered and the empty vehicle transport device 1 is driven to the factory, and a new vehicle C is mounted on the vehicle transport device 1 and transported to the container yard. By repeating the above, the vehicle C can be automatically sequentially transported from the factory to the container yard.

本発明は上記の実施形態に限られない。以下、本発明の他の実施形態を説明するが、上記の実施形態と同様の点については重複説明を省略する。 The present invention is not limited to the above embodiments. Hereinafter, other embodiments of the present invention will be described, but duplicate description will be omitted with respect to the same points as those of the above embodiments.

例えば、車両搬送装置1のバッテリー6と車両CのライトLとを、無線の接続手段を介して電気的に接続してもよい。この場合、車両搬送装置1には接続手段としての無線送電器が設けられ、車両Cには無線受電器が設けられる。これにより、車両搬送装置1のバッテリー6の電力を、無線送電器及び無線受電器を介して車両Cの電気回路に供給し、ライトLを点灯させることができる。この場合、車両Cの前輪タイヤW1を車両搬送装置1の本体2上の所定の位置に搭載することで、車両搬送装置1の無線送電器と車両Cの無線受電器とが自動的に接続される。 For example, the battery 6 of the vehicle transport device 1 and the light L of the vehicle C may be electrically connected via a wireless connection means. In this case, the vehicle transport device 1 is provided with a wireless transmitter as a connecting means, and the vehicle C is provided with a wireless power receiver. As a result, the electric power of the battery 6 of the vehicle transport device 1 can be supplied to the electric circuit of the vehicle C via the wireless transmitter and the wireless power receiver, and the light L can be turned on. In this case, by mounting the front wheel tire W1 of the vehicle C at a predetermined position on the main body 2 of the vehicle transport device 1, the wireless transmitter of the vehicle transport device 1 and the wireless power receiver of the vehicle C are automatically connected. NS.

また、車両搬送装置1にカメラを設けてもよい。このカメラで撮影した画像に基づいて、進行方向前方の障害物の有無を検知することで、車両搬送装置1が障害物に衝突することを防止できる。このとき、車両CのライトLを点灯しながら車両搬送装置1を走行させることで、カメラで撮影した画像が鮮明になり、障害物の検知精度が高められる。 Further, the vehicle transport device 1 may be provided with a camera. By detecting the presence or absence of an obstacle in front of the traveling direction based on the image taken by this camera, it is possible to prevent the vehicle transport device 1 from colliding with the obstacle. At this time, by running the vehicle transport device 1 while turning on the light L of the vehicle C, the image taken by the camera becomes clear and the obstacle detection accuracy is improved.

車両搬送装置1の駆動機構の構成は上記に限られない。例えば、上記の実施形態では、各駆動輪9が一対の車輪10からなる場合を示したが、これに限らず、各駆動輪9を一個の車輪で構成してもよい。この場合、駆動輪9が取り付けられた転舵軸12を回転駆動する別途の転舵手段(例えば転舵モータ)が設けられる。 The configuration of the drive mechanism of the vehicle transport device 1 is not limited to the above. For example, in the above embodiment, the case where each drive wheel 9 is composed of a pair of wheels 10 is shown, but the present invention is not limited to this, and each drive wheel 9 may be composed of one wheel. In this case, a separate steering means (for example, a steering motor) for rotationally driving the steering shaft 12 to which the drive wheels 9 are attached is provided.

また、上記の実施形態では、車両の前輪のみを搭載して搬送する車両搬送装置1を示したが、これに限らず、車両の後輪のみを搭載して搬送する車両搬送装置や、車両の四輪全てを搭載して搬送する車両搬送装置に本発明を適用してもよい。 Further, in the above embodiment, the vehicle transport device 1 that carries only the front wheels of the vehicle is shown, but the present invention is not limited to this, and the vehicle transport device that carries only the rear wheels of the vehicle and the vehicle. The present invention may be applied to a vehicle transport device that carries and transports all four wheels.

また、上記の実施形態では、2個の駆動輪9と2個の補助輪4を設けた車両搬送装置1を示したが、これに限られない。例えば、本体2の幅方向中央に補助輪4を1個だけ設けたり、駆動輪9の前方及び後方に補助輪4を設けたりしてもよい。あるいは、2個の駆動輪9と、それよりも前方又は後方にさらに駆動輪9を設け、3輪駆動、あるいは4輪駆動としてもよい。あるいは、駆動輪9を1個としてもよく、例えば、本体2の幅方向中央に1個の駆動輪4を設け、その後方の幅方向両端付近に一対の補助輪8を設けてもよい。 Further, in the above embodiment, the vehicle transport device 1 provided with the two drive wheels 9 and the two auxiliary wheels 4 is shown, but the present invention is not limited to this. For example, only one training wheel 4 may be provided at the center of the main body 2 in the width direction, or training wheels 4 may be provided at the front and rear of the drive wheel 9. Alternatively, two drive wheels 9 and further drive wheels 9 may be provided in front of or behind the two drive wheels 9 for three-wheel drive or four-wheel drive. Alternatively, the number of drive wheels 9 may be one, and for example, one drive wheel 4 may be provided at the center of the main body 2 in the width direction, and a pair of auxiliary wheels 8 may be provided near both ends in the width direction behind the drive wheel 9.

また、上記の車両搬送装置で搬送する車両は、完成車両に限らず、例えば、荷台を搭載する前のトラック等(いわゆる、架装前車両)を含む。 Further, the vehicle transported by the vehicle transport device is not limited to the completed vehicle, but includes, for example, a truck or the like before mounting the loading platform (so-called vehicle before mounting).
