Types of Puzzle Parking Systems Offered By Wohr

A multilevel car parking is one that provides multiple parking spaces at different levels – that is Upper& Lower levels, is known as a puzzle parking systems.

These levels have the capability to move horizontally or vertically, just like a "Puzzle" which would automatically park a vehicle in a vacant space. These systems are independent in nature, which means that any car can be parked or retrieved without vacating another parking space.

These parking systems make use of hydraulic mechanism to move the "pallets" vertically and horizontally, depending on the availability of a vacant space. One benefit that this system has over other parking systems is that it has multiple entries for the user to enter from, which essentially reduces the time it takes to park a vehicle. The system is fully automatic and the driver just has to park the vehicle in the lower platform and vacate the car. The system then moves the pallet on which the car is placed to a vacant space wherever it is available. In order to do this, there is always one vacant space, which enables all the other platforms to move freely and retrieve the car that is needed.

Puzzle parking systems are one of the types of multilevel car parking systems, and offer the user a unique experience. Unlike traditional parking spaces, they do not require the extra space that is generally used to navigate around until a convenient parking space is identified. It also offers higher cost efficiency as it reduces the operational costs as well as construction costs. Being built vertical, the system demands lesser land space, hence reducing the land costs. It is generally easier and faster to construct within a space as compared to a conventional garage or parking space. These Puzzle parking systems are used mainly for residential buildings, condominiums, office buildings, etc.

Following are the types of Puzzle parking systems offered by Wohr.

1. Combilift 542 – Two Level Independent Parking Systems

The Combilift 542 is an independent parking system that has two levels, and uses a pit. It is mostly preferred where the headroom space is restricted. This system has one empty platform at the entry, which allows the other platforms to conveniently slide until one parking space is free. In case the user requests for a lower level platform, the upper level platforms will move laterally until there is an empty space into which the appropriate platform is raised. The weight carrying capacity per platform is 2000 or 2600 kgs, and can accommodate cars having height between 150-205 cms. It can have an arrangement of 2-10 grids next to each other. This system has safety doors that assure safety of parked cars.

2. Combilift 551 – Two Level Independent Parking Systems

The Combilift 551 is another kind of a two level independent parking system that requires a full length driving length in order to access parking grids. The central levels only moves laterally while the upper platforms move vertically, in order to make room for a vacant parking space. Just like any other independent parking system, there is one space left vacant to enable the movement of other platforms to access the vehicle. The platform has a capacity to accommodate cars of 2000 or 2600 kgs, and the grids vary between 2 to 10. The platforms can vary in size as per the requirement.

3. Combilift 552 – Two Level Independent Parking Systems

Combilift 552 Car parking system is for independent parking of cars above and aside each other. It can be arranged in 2 rows one behind the other, that increase the convenience and parking space at the same time. There is a vacant space in the first row that allows the user to drive through to reach the second/rear row. It has a weight carrying capacity of 2000-2600 kgs and can have a variable arrangement of platforms, as per the requirements. It can have 2-3 rows available and has a central operation and control device.

4. Combilift 543 – Three Level Independent Parking Systems

The Combilift 543 is a three level independent parking system, and has a singular entrance for the vehicles to enter from, that is at the very center. It has the capability to arrange up to 10 grids in a horizontal pattern, on each level. This provides almost three times the parking space and gives the users a one of a kind experience. Because this is a combination of the other 2 systems, it also has a weight carrying capacity of 2000 or 2600 kgs. The cars are stacked and put close to each other, thereby saving more space.
