    Method for detecting orphan vehicles of vehicles in a garage and garage suitable for carrying out the method
    The invention relates to a method for detecting orphan vehicles of vehicles in a garage and garage suitable for carrying out the method.
    For parking vehicles, such as bicycles, parking facilities are offered at locations such as at stations. These sheds generally consist essentially of several parking means, possibly enclosed by an access system, whereby a bicycle can be placed and possibly attached in each of the parking means.
    Typically, the owner of the bicycle will, for example, pick up the bicycle from the garage after a few days, making the space occupied by the bicycle available. However, it often happens that owners forget their bicycle, that the bicycle is no longer of value to the owner, or that the bicycle remains in the storage for other reasons than desirable. Such so-called orphan bicycles can cause a lack of capacity for new bicycles, so that it is necessary to further increase the capacity for bicycles, which is not efficient and therefore undesirable.
    For detecting orphaned bicycles by personnel, it is known to provide markings on, at or near a bicycle, these bicycles being removed at the moment that after some time these markings are still present or in operation. However, such a system is labor-intensive. Moreover, it is common for the markings used to be relatively easy to remove, defective or tampered with, so that such markings are susceptible to fraud.
    It is now the object of the invention to reduce or even prevent the abovementioned disadvantages.
    This object is achieved by means of a method for detecting orphan vehicles of vehicles in a parking facility, which method comprises the steps of: - providing a parking facility comprising at least one parking space suitable for parking a plurality of vehicles enclosed by closing means with arranged in the closing means a first opening for persons with vehicle, a second opening for persons with vehicle and a third opening for persons; - opening the first, second and third opening of the storage during a storage period; - blocking the first and second opening after the parking period for a locking period so that people can only enter and leave the parking via the third opening and only without a vehicle, and so that people can leave the parking via the second opening, possibly with a vehicle ; and - marking the vehicles stored in the space as orphan vehicles after the locking period.
    In this method, a first, second and third opening of the garage are left open during a storage period, that is to say arranged so that a user of the garage can use it in a normal manner. This allows a user to leave new vehicles such as bicycles in the garage. During this period, users can also gain access to the bicycles they parked through one of the openings, possibly to remove them from the garage via one of the openings. In the context of the invention, and not limited to this method, bicycles are understood to include mopeds, e-bikes and light mopeds.
    After the parking period, the first, second and third openings intended for bringing bicycles into the storage space are blocked, that is to say arranged in such a way that new bicycles are prevented from being introduced into the storage. As a result, during that period only users can walk into the parking space without a bicycle, in order to gain access to their already parked bicycle, possibly with the aim of bringing the bicycle outside.
    At the end of the locking period, because no new bicycles have been introduced within the parking space during the locking period, it is clear that all bicycles still present were not picked up during that period. used by the user. This makes it possible to mark all these bicycles without distinction as an orphan vehicle, in this case as an orphan bicycle. This makes an efficient procedure for processing orphaned bicycles possible.
    Preferably, a storage period and a locking period of a storage space are repeated alternately.
    The switching between the parking period and the locking period can be carried out manually, but this switching can also be carried out entirely or partially automatically, for example by providing a controller which controls the blocking.
    The marking does not necessarily have to consist of placing a physical marking and can for instance consist of moving these bicycles to a zone within the parking space. If an additional locking period is now offered, for example, a last chance can be given to the owner of the orphan vehicle to remove it from the parking space.
    The first, second and third opening can hereby be separate from each other, but one, more or all of these openings can also be combined.
    It is possible that the second opening in the locking period is arranged such that persons can only use the second opening as an exit during this period with a vehicle.
    In a preferred embodiment of the method according to the invention, there is arranged in the first, second and third opening a personnel door, an entrance door for vehicles and an exit door for vehicles, which entrance door, passenger door and exit door are opened during the parking period, and wherein during the locking period the entrance door is blocked and the passenger door and the exit door are kept open during the locking period.
    In this preferred embodiment with a garage with doors, the doors of the garage are left open during a garage period, that is to say arranged so that a user of the garage can use them in a normal manner. For example, a user can leave new vehicles such as bicycles in the garage via the entrance door. During this period, users can also access the bicycles they parked through the passenger door, possibly to remove them from the garage via the exit door, which has been left open.
    After the parking period, the entrance door, intended for bringing bicycles into the storage space, is blocked for a locking period, that is to say arranged in such a way that the entrance door cannot be used for bringing bicycles into the storage space, for example by means of a locking such as a lock that cannot be opened with the help of a door handle. As a result, during that period only users can walk into the garage without a bicycle, in order to gain access to their already stored bicycle, possibly with the aim of bringing the bicycle out through the exit door.
    The switching between the parking period and the locking period can be carried out manually, but this switching can also be carried out entirely or partially automatically, for example by a controller, which controls the door or any lock present on the door.
    In another preferred embodiment of the method according to the invention, in the locking period, a first front wall with a human door and a second front wall with an exit door are placed closing over the first, second and third opening.
    In this preferred embodiment, retention walls are provided in the openings, which are fixed in such a way, for example with fastening means, so that they prevent access to the storage space insofar as this does not happen via openings such as doors in the retention wall. As a result of this, due to a reduced number of walls during a storage period, the parking facility has a more open and therefore more attractive appearance during this storage period and it is easy to enter the storage facility due to the relatively large openings.
    The first and the second front wall can be two separate front walls, but can also be combined in one front wall.
    In a preferred embodiment of the method according to the invention, the method further comprises removing vehicles marked as an orphan vehicle from the parking space.
    It is preferable, for example by way of marking of the orphan vehicles, such as orphaned bicycles, to remove the orphaned bicycles from the parking space. As a result, more space is obtained for storing new vehicles such as bicycles in the parking space, whereby it is less necessary to expand the parking space in size for this purpose.
    In yet another preferred embodiment of the method according to the invention, the storage comprises at least one further storage space, wherein the storage period of the storage space corresponds to the locking period of the further storage space and wherein the storage period of the further storage space corresponds to the locking period of the storage space.
    By providing at least two parking spaces, wherein the parking period of the first parking space coincides with the locking period of the second parking space, a parking space will always be available for the new parking of vehicles such as for example bicycles.
    Preferably, a maximum of one parking space is in the locking period, because this leaves a maximum space available for storing new bicycles.
    When steps of the method are performed automatically, controllers of the parking spaces can be coupled to each other, or one controller can control at least two storage spaces.
    The two storage spaces are preferably placed adjacent to each other, because it is easier for a user to find a storage space that is in the storage period.
    In yet another preferred embodiment of the method according to the invention, at least one of the parking period and the locking period lasts at least one week.
    By allowing at least one of the parking period and the locking period to last at least one week, the method is less labor-intensive and, moreover, the user is offered a suitable option for retrieving his vehicle, which can for instance be a bicycle.
    The storage or locking period preferably lasts longer than two weeks. This period may take longer than a month. It is possible here to extend the period further as the number of parking spaces is larger.
    The object of the invention is further achieved by means of a parking space suitable for carrying out the method according to any one of the preceding claims, comprising at least one parking space suitable for parking a plurality of vehicles enclosed by closing means, comprising at least a first opening for persons with vehicle, a second opening for people with vehicle and a third opening for people.
    The closing means here adjoin the storage space and can enclose it and can for instance consist of walls, fences, glass walls, storeys or a combination thereof, but also, for example, of similar means in which the openings are provided for access to the storage space. On these closing means, for example near the upper edge, an anti-climb protection such as, for example, barbed wire may have been provided, so as to reduce the chance of someone climbing over the closing means. It is also possible, for example, for the closing means to connect to a ceiling.
    The storage is preferably provided with a visually observable indication, such as for example a sign or lighting, to indicate when the storage space is in a storage period or locking period.
    The first opening, second opening and third opening can hereby be separate from each other, for example next to each other, but one, more or all of these openings can also be combined in a single opening.
    In a preferred embodiment of the parking facility according to the invention, doors are provided in the first, second and third opening, comprising at least one passenger door, an entrance door for vehicles and an exit door for vehicles.
    An entrance door is understood to mean a door through which vehicles such as bicycles can be brought into the storage space from outside to inside in normal use. It is possible that a user can enter the parking space through the entrance door simultaneously with the bicycle. No other movements are possible on their own via the entrance door. During the locking period this entrance door is blocked, for which purpose this door may comprise blocking means such as a lock.
    An exit door is understood to mean a door through which bicycles can be brought from the inside to the outside of the parking space. It is possible that a user can leave the parking space at the same time as the bicycle through the exit door. No other movements are possible on their own via the exit door.
    A person's door or wicket door is understood to mean a door through which people can be brought from outside to inside the storage space and vice versa. In itself, no movements with bicycles are possible via the passenger door, for example because the construction or dimensions of the door opening prevent this.
    The garage may include a combination door, whereby functions of several doors are combined in one door. In some cases, it may be necessary to provide the door with means of control in order to regulate the required access controls. If all doors are combined in one combination door, therefore, only one door is required.
    The closing means can here connect to a ceiling such that the parking space is enclosed on all sides in order to achieve the same effect.
    The doors can be designed in various forms, such as, for example, single doors, sliding doors or turnstiles, whether or not manually or electrically propelled.
    In yet another preferred embodiment of the garage according to the invention, the garage further comprises: - a first front wall with a human door; - a second front wall with an exit door; and - fixing means for finally fixing the first front wall and the second front wall in the first, second and third opening.
    The definition of a personnel door and an exit door is in line with the definition given in the previous preferred embodiment.
    These two retaining walls can be arranged in the openings and be fixed with the fastening means, so that they prevent access to the storage space insofar as this does not take place via openings such as doors in the retaining wall. As a result of this, due to a reduced number of walls during a storage period, the parking facility has a more open and therefore more attractive appearance during this storage period and it is easy to enter the storage facility due to the relatively large openings.
    The extension walls can herein form a separate part of the shed that is completely removable, but it can also be attached to the closing means by suitable means such as, for example, a hinge.
    The first and the second front wall can be two separate front walls, but can also be combined in one front wall.
    In a preferred embodiment of the garage according to the invention, at least two of the personnel door, the entrance door and the exit door are separate from each other.
    By designing at least two of the doors separately from each other, the chance of unintended use is reduced, because in this way the doors can be arranged such that they can only be used in a limited number of ways. For example, an independent passenger door can be of such a construction or width or height that a vehicle such as a bicycle cannot be brought through the doorway or lock. In that case, the doors in general can, for example, only open in the direction in which the use is intended, such as, for example, in the case of an independent entrance door, only from outside the storage space to the inside.
    In a further preferred embodiment of the parking facility according to the invention, at least one of the doors comprises operating means, the operating means being arranged exclusively on the side of the door for operation in the direction of use of the door.
    It is preferable to arrange the operating means only on the side of the door in which it is normally used. For example, on an independent entrance door, which is only used for bringing in or bringing things in, a door handle can be provided only on the outside of the parking space, which makes operation of the door from the inside of the storage space more difficult or even prevented .
    In yet another preferred embodiment of the garage according to the invention, at least one of the doors comprises a lock door.
    A lock door is preferred over other types of doors because it offers a possibility for better control of the exit and access to the storage space, because, for example, the second door only opens when the first door is closed. In this way it is also possible, for example, to prevent the parking space from being used for an object that is also larger in length than the size for which the storage space is intended by adjusting the distance between the doors of the lock to that length dimension. Although it is possible that all doors are designed as lock gates, it is also possible that not all doors are designed as lock gates, for example that only the personnel door is designed as lock gates.
    In yet another preferred embodiment of the garage according to the invention, the garage comprises at least one further garage space.
    By including a further storage space in addition to the storage space, the capacity is further increased. Because the storage spaces are moreover suitable for carrying out the method according to the invention, the coupled period (ie the storage period of the first storage space coincides with the locking period of the further storage space) makes it possible to achieve the storage period and the locking period can be achieved at all times. at least one storage space is available for storing new vehicles such as bicycles. The number of storage spaces can also be greater than two.
    The two storage spaces are preferably placed adjacent to each other, because it is easier for a user to find a storage space that is in the storage period.
    In again a preferred embodiment of the parking facility according to the invention, the parking facility further comprises parking means for parking a plurality of vehicles within the parking space.
    By providing parking means within the parking space for storing several vehicles such as bicycles, it is possible to place a relatively large number of bicycles in the parking facilities. The parking means can for instance consist of racks, marked compartments or brackets, on which or in which the bicycle can be placed.
    In again a preferred embodiment of the parking facility according to the invention, the parking means are suitable for storing bicycles.
    At all kinds of locations it is desirable to provide parking facilities for bicycles, which include, for example, bicycles, mopeds, light mopeds, scooters or e-bikes, such as parking facilities, for example near stations, where a user can transfer to other means of transport. It has been found that, especially with bicycles, the use of parking facilities is regularly forgotten by the user afterwards that the bicycles are stored for an undesirably long period, or that bicycles are parked that are in a poor state of maintenance, so that the number of orphaned vehicles is high . For that reason it is advantageous to provide a parking facility according to the invention, wherein the number of orphaned vehicles can be noticed in a simple manner with the implementation of the method according to the invention.
    In yet another preferred embodiment of the garage according to the invention, the garage further comprises an access system, suitable for opening at least one of the doors after payment by a user.
    Although it is possible for the parking facility to be freely accessible, it is advantageous to equip the parking facility with an access system, such as a payment terminal, which provides the user with a ticket for access to the parking space. In this case, for example, the parking space can only be accessed afterwards by showing the ticket at a terminal, or the ticket may be required in a similar manner, after payment at a payment terminal, for leaving the parking space.
    Such an access system increases the safety of the vehicles placed within the parking space, such as bicycles, and moreover provides the possibility of covering the costs for, for example, placement and maintenance of the parking facility, as well as for possibly manually performing the method with the parking facility.
    In another preferred embodiment of the parking facility according to the invention, at least one of the doors is provided with urging means, for urging the door towards a closed position.
    By providing at least one of the doors with urging means, which urge the doors towards a closed position, it is prevented that the parking space is left unintentionally open, as a result of which possibly unintended people could gain access to the parking space. This further enhances the safety of the parking facility.
    The urging means here are preferably such that the door remains open for a fixed period in the order of seconds to facilitate the use of the door, whereafter the period is urged towards the closed position.
    These and other aspects of the invention will be explained with reference to the accompanying figures.
    Figure 1 shows a schematic top view of a parking facility according to the invention.
    Figure 2 shows a flow chart of a method according to the invention.
    Figures 3A and 3B show a schematic top view of a parking facility according to the invention in the parking period and the locking period, respectively.
    Figure 1 shows a bicycle parking 1 consisting of two parking spaces 2, 3 which are each completely enclosed by walls 4, 5. From storage space 2, storage space 3 is not directly accessible and vice versa. In the walls 4 of the first storage space 2 are an entrance door 6, an exit door 7 and a human door 8. Similarly, an entrance door 10, an exit door 9 and a personnel door 11 are arranged in the walls 5 of the second storage space 3, all designed as lock gates.
    Parking means, namely bicycle racks 12, 13, 14, 15, are arranged in each of the parking spaces 2, 3 for storing several bicycles 16, 17 in each of the parking spaces 2, 3.
    It is possible through the entrance doors 6, 10 to introduce new bicycles into one of the parking spaces 2, 3 (direction A), but not to remove bicycles placed in the parking space 2, 3. For this purpose, exit doors 7, 9 can be used, which, on the other hand, cannot be used for bringing new bicycles into the storage space 2, 3 (direction B). The personnel doors 8, 11 can be used for people entering and leaving the garage. For this purpose, therefore, the door openings of the personnel doors 8, 11 also have a different construction than the entrance doors 6, 10 and exit doors 7, 9.
    The entrance doors 6, 10 hereby only open inwards, i.e. towards the parking space 2, 3 and the door handles 18, 19 are therefore only arranged on the outside of the entrance doors 6, 10. Similarly, door handles 20, 21 are only arranged on the inside of the exit doors 7, 9 that open only to the outside.
    In this case, the first storage space 2 is locked, so that no new bicycles can be introduced into the storage space 2. However, it is still possible to enter storage space 2 via personnel door 8 to remove bicycles already placed from the storage space 2 via exit door 7. During this locking period, new bicycles can be stored from storage space 2 in storage space 3, which is in the storage period.
    Figure 2 shows a flow chart 30 for a method according to the invention, wherein in step 31 a two parking spaces 2, 3 according to the invention are provided.
    In step 32, the entrance door 6 of storage space 2 is blocked for a month, so that it is in the locking period, where the remaining doors 7, 8, 9, 10, 11 remain open (storage space 3 is simultaneously in the storage period).
    In step 33, the entrance door 6 is opened, entrance door 10 is blocked for a month (parking space 2 is now in storage period, where storage space 3 is in locking period), and bicycles still present are removed from storage space 2. Hereafter one returns to step 32.
    Figure 3 shows an example of another garage 40 according to the invention. This parking 40 comprises a parking space 41 with parking means 42 for storing bicycles. In the parking period, as shown in Figure 3A, a first opening 43 and a second opening 44 of the parking are left open, so that bicycles and users can freely walk in and out of the parking space 41, whether or not they carry a bicycle.
    In the locking period, a first retaining wall 45 is placed, with a first end 46 closingly placed on one end of a first wall 47 surrounding the parking space 41, and with a second end 48 on an opposite end 49 of an opposite fixed wall 50. Similarly, on the opposite side, a second front wall 51 with a first end 52 and a second end 53 is attached to first wall 47 and wall 50.
    A staff door 54 is placed in the first extension wall 45, which door opens in one direction and is provided with door handle 55 such that it only allows access from outside the parking space 41 to the inside. Arranged in the second extension wall 51 is an exit door 56, wider than human door 54, which, due to the placement of the door handle 57, only allows access from outside the parking space 41 to the outside.
