A parking facility is suitable for carrying a vehicle into a parking stall or carrying the vehicle out of the parking stall by a transport vehicle that enters a lower space under the vehicle and picks up the vehicle. The parking facility includes a restricting member that can move between a restricting position in which entry of the transport vehicle into the parking stall for carrying the vehicle into the parking stall or carrying the vehicle out of the parking stall is restricted and an allowable position in which the entry of the transport vehicle into the parking stall for carrying the vehicle into the parking stall or carrying the vehicle out of the parking stall is allowed.

Parking facility and parking system

A vehicle information delivery device includes an image processing unit configured to generate vehicle related images indicating the status of a vehicle moving unmanned in a predetermined target area based on camera images taken in the target area where unattended parking is performed, and an information sending unit configured to send delivery information including the vehicle related images to a display terminal visually recognized by a user of the vehicle.

A carrier body of a lift carrier includes: a pair of wheel support mechanisms that supports a first wheel of a vehicle to be transported; a frame-shaped structure connected to the wheel support mechanisms; and one or more lifting units that lift or lower the pair of wheel support mechanisms. The frame-shaped structure includes a frame portion and an upper plate and is open on a lower side of the carrier body. Each of the lifting units includes a wheel support and an air spring. The air spring is interposed between the wheel support and an upper plate. As the air spring expands, the wheel support is rotated about one end of the wheel support rotatably supported by the frame portion, and is deployed out of the frame-shaped structure.

Lift carrier

A vehicle transporting device includes a bogie frame, a device main body, and an upright frame. The upright frame connects a tip portion of the bogie frame and the device main body. The bogie frame includes two frame members and at least two pipes, which are disposed parallel to a longitudinal direction of the bogie frame. The two frame members are disposed parallel to the at least two pipes at a position outside the at least two pipes in a width direction of the bogie frame. The at least two pipes include two pipes facing each other in the width direction. A reinforcing member extending in the width direction is provided at the tip portion of the bogie frame and between the two facing pipes. The two frame members, the reinforcing member, and the upright frame are connected to each other at the tip portion of the bogie frame.
