ROBOTIC BICYCLE PARKING WITH AUTONOMOUS ELECTRIC POWER SYSTEM

Abstract

The research is devoted to the development of an automatic complex that is being transformed with an autonomous power system. . This problem is now the most urgent one because the bicycle has become one of the ultra-high-speed vehicles in a big city.

In this work, the experimental design of an automated bicycle parking is considered: a gripping device that must capture the bicycle and hold it during transportation to the storage place inside the parking lot; a device for lifting and transporting, provides lifting and moving the vehicle during operation; place of direct storage of vehicles. Moving element - the automated operator’s boom is equipped with a surveillance camera so that so that the user has the opportunity to monitor the operation of the system personally on the screen of the control panel. To ensure ease of construction, the main part of the operator is made of aluminum, which gives a preference for lightness by 40%, in contrast to the Steel counterpart, while maintaining the same strength. It also makes it possible to use engines of lower power and lower weight, as a result of which the design is cheaper. During the development of automated bicycle parking, a module of the solar power station was added, this made it possible to ensure autonomous operation of the system. The developed design has several sizes, starting from the basic one level and ending with the maximum possible five levels, so the system capacity changes, from 120 to 600 seats. In addition to various types of bicycles, automated bicycle parking may include different variety of electric scooters of the proposed design and weight.

The resulting design of an automated modular bicycle parking is higher than existing analogues, automated bicycle parking is higher by two times, and in saving space by three and a half times. Also, the modularity of the design is unique and has no analogues now. The use of alternative technologies allowed us to make the system autonomous and ecological, which allows us to place it both in the city center and in the forest conservation area or Ecopark
