Abstract

Limiter of parking space in parking lots of vehicles, characterized in that it is constituted from a metallic structure that is fastened to the wall and the floor of the parking lot formed by two arms of iron profiling or material of similar characteristics. These arms are oriented towards the vehicle and are constituted by two tubes of longitudinally successive hollow profiling that can be collected in telescope, each one fitting in the previous one. Each of these arms is joined at one end to another arm of iron profiling forming with both right angle, the final form of the assembly being a u and this arm is also composed of two tubes with the same telescope characteristics as the previous ones.

Description

Parking space limiter in vehicle parking.

Object of the invention

The present invention relates to the limitation of the space to be covered by the vehicle in a parking lot. Works as the top of the wheels of the vehicle, so that when it is it gets too close to the parking wall, the wheels get they encounter an obstacle, which the driver detects, and stops the vehicle without causing any damage to it or the wall.

The parking space limiter consists of two iron profiles arms or similar material features, joined at one end to another profiling arm of iron forming with both a right angle. Through this arm the limiter is fixed to the wall or floor, so that it remains motionless and well anchored.

At the other end of the two parallel arms, it fixed in each of them a wedge-shaped element, elaborated with resistant material, with the somewhat rounded top and concave, so that it adapts to the shape of a car's wheel.

Background of the invention

Park a vehicle in a very small space how can a parking space be complicated for the Most drivers, especially the new ones. Further, Currently, the lack of space and the price of land make spaces destined to the parking of vehicles are increasingly reduced to obtain more seats. The lack of precision, both when driving the vehicle and when calculating the distance to travel makes it usual to hit or rub the wall. To solve this problem, various limiters have been proposed. and mechanisms, most of them, incorporated into the own vehicle. Sensors installed in the vehicle are known that warn of the proximity of the wall to the conductor with an acoustic signal, vehicles are also known that incorporate screens in which the driver can see, through a camera located at the rear of the car the distance at which the wall or the obstacle. Document ES 1 049 085 U describes a stop for parking which is an element made up of a tire of automobile, with a fixed and / or cushioned faceplate and a internal frame for mounting and anchoring (fixing) with or without electrical installation and with or without acoustic and / or light warning. He Document ES 1 063 865 U describes a system that materializes in a continuous band, which can cover two side walls of a column and the three edges that delimit them, a single wall of the column and also the two edges that define it, or all the perimeter of the column, said band being in any case continuous mounted with freedom of movement on rollers located in correspondence with said edges and duly padded, so that the rubbing of a vehicle on said band continuous causes the movement of the same on the rollers that guide it, avoiding any type of deterioration on the vehicle body Document ES 1 066 958 U describes a invention consisting of a pneumatic protector, which is coupled to the garage space wall, at an appropriate height, so that when contacting the vehicle with said protector, a warning device is activated Sound and / or visual. This drive is achieved thanks to the device, with padded support, is provided with air in its inside, and after receiving the impact, triggers the warning.

All this known presents the drawbacks indicated below:

- Document ES 1 049 085 U describes a system that works as a stop, composed of a tire of car with which the vehicle is struck at the moment in which reach the top. This limiter allows the driver to approach too much to the wall or column, since when it detects that it arrives at the end of the tour the vehicle is already very close to it, and in hands of an inexperienced driver or by a simple oversight can hitting it due to proximity, that is, it leaves very little room for security.

- Document ES 1 063 865 U describes a system that materializes in a continuous band, which covers the perimeter of the column, said band being in any case continuous mounted with freedom of movement on rollers, of so that the rubbing of a vehicle on said band causes its displacement on the rollers, avoiding any type of deterioration on the body of the vehicle, but in no way warns the driver of the vehicle that he is rubbing the column.

- Document ES 1 066 958 U describes a invention consisting of a pneumatic protector, which is coupled to the garage space wall, at an appropriate height, so that when contacting the vehicle with said protector, a warning device is activated Sound and / or visual. This invention, like the previous ones, warns of vehicle contact with the protective system, but it does so when The vehicle is very close to the wall or column.

Faced with these drawbacks the invention that Here it is proposed presents the following advantages:

-

He Vehicle driver detects well in advance when you should stopping the vehicle, when it is still found what far enough from the wall not to touch it but not Too much to stay badly parked.

-

Do not requires power, or an expensive one installation.

-

Is easily adjustable according to the size of the vehicle to be occupied the square, and this regulation can be done once installed.

Its industrial application is framed in the sector of furniture of garages and parking spaces, and in the of car care.

Description of the invention

Thus, the parking space limiter will constitutes from a metal structure formed by two iron profiling arms or similar material features. These arms are constituted by two tubes of longitudinally successive hollow profiles that can be collected fitting telescopically each one in the previous one, with which You can adapt your length and set the desired length. Each one of these arms are joined at one end to another profiling arm of iron forming with both a right angle and being the final form of mounting a U, and this arm is also composed of two tubes with the same telescopic characteristics as the previous ones, so that its size can also be adjusted, adapting it to the width of the car. With this arm the limiter is fixed to the wall or to the ground. At the other end of the two parallel arms, it is fixed on each one of them a wedge-shaped element, made with material resistant, with the top somewhat rounded and concave, to It suits the shape of a car's wheel. In this way, the driver, when approaching the wall for the parking, slowly approaching the limit stop, of so that when the wheels of the vehicle meet the wedges, the driver detects that he has reached the end of the a smooth and no fright, and stops the car. Also I know they can fix on the wall, at a height visible by the mirrors, some reflective stickers, one on each arm, so that the driver can be guided by these when approaching the vehicle to wedges.

Description of a preferred embodiment

A preferred embodiment consists of a metal structure formed by two arms (1) of profiles of iron or material of similar characteristics that are held in the floor and wall of the parking lot. These arms (1) are constituted by two longitudinally hollow profiles tubes successive that can be collected by fitting each one in the previous one, With which you can adapt your length and set the desired length. These arms are joined by one end to another arm (2) of iron profiles forming with both a right angle, and this arm also consists of two bars with the same characteristics than the previous ones, so that you can also regulate its size, adapting it to the width of the vehicle. Through this arm the limiter is fixed (3) to the wall or floor. The other end of the two parallel arms, fixed in each of them a wedge-shaped element (4), made of resistant material, with the top somewhat rounded and concave, so that it suits to the shape of the wheel of a car. They can also be fixed in the wall, at a height visible by the mirrors, some stickers reflectors (5), one on each arm, so that the driver can be guided by these when approaching the vehicle at wedges
