Reliable hydraulic parking systems from wohr
In India's congested urban centres, space for parking cars is a real problem. No wonder multilevel car parking systems are growing in usage and popularity. Multilevel car parking and automatic car parking systems offer real solutions that create numbers of parking spaces in a small footprint. They also help to eliminate the time, stress and fuel involved in searching for suitable parking space.
Multilevel car parking systems generally use hydraulic lifts to move vehicles up and down, and even sideways. The hydraulic lift elevates the vehicle on the platform in order to make room for a second car to park underneath. It also safely lowers the platform once the second car moves out.
Components and working of a hydraulic system
Generally, hydraulic car lifts have three main components:
- Tank for oil or some other fluid
- one or more pistons in a cylinder
- Motor-powered pump
In a streamlined design, these components are usually built into the car parking system, on either or both sides of the platformas well as the vertical arms that hold it in place.
Hydraulic systems make use of fluid pressure to move parts. The initial movement of the pump is activated with electricity. The pump pushes the fluid out of the storage container into the cylinder that houses the piston/s. As pressure builds up in the fluid, it pushes the piston upward. This generates enough force to life heavy loads and to hold them there until the fluid is withdrawn by the pump. As the cylinders and pistons are attached to the car lift's platform, they activate the controlled raising and lowering of the platform.
Hydraulic systems are reliable, compact and can be streamlined in the design. Being simpler in design with fewer parts, there are fewer places where it may break down.
Stacker parking systems and puzzle car parking systems are some of the common systems that utilise hydraulic lifts.
Stacker systems usually have 2 to 3 levels for car parking. The car parked on the bottom platform is lifted to the level aboveusing hydraulics.
stack parking systems are ideal for both indoor and outdoor installation. They offer a high level of operating and functional safety as per EN norms.Easy operation and low maintenance costs are natural features of all Wohr car parking solutions.
Wohr offers four models of stack parking systems:
Parklift 411
This is a dependent parking system with 2 levels, available as a single unit for 2 cars or double unit for 4 cars.
Parklift 413
Independent parking for 3 cars in the footprint of one parking space. A cost saving solution for car heights 150 cm to 170 cm.
Parklift 421
A dependent system with 3 parking levels, ideal for valet parking, car rentals, car service centres.
Parklift 440
For indoor installation with pit, this independent parking system accommodates 2 cars above each other.
WOHR’S PUZZLE CAR PARKING SYSTEM
Wohr's puzzle parking series, ‘Combilift’, is based on the concept of stacking and moving together. This arrangement is extremely comfortable for the user as anyone can enter and exit at any time. If anything is in the way, it is simply shifted to the side, or lifted.
Besides easy operation, parking comfort and functional safety, these puzzle parking systems can also be fitted with safety gates for greater safety against theft and vandalism.
The Combilift series includes:
Combilift 551
Independent parking in 2 levels above each other without pit. Entrance level platforms move laterally and upper level platforms move vertically, with always one platform less at the entrance level.
Combilift 552
The Combilift 552 can be arranged in 2 rows behind each other. A smart combination is to put in Combilift 551 / Combilift 543 system behind Combilift 552. Empty space in the first row will be positioned in such a way that it is possible to drive through to reach the selected space, located in the rear row.
Combilift 543
The most compact space saving Combilift for parking on 3 levels above each other. The entry is always at the middle level. The user selects his place via operating panel.
Combilift 542
Independent parking in 2 levels with a pit, suitable for areas where headroom is restricted. Available in variable arrangementsof 2-10 grids beside each other.
