ABSTRACT:
A multi-level storage or parking structure. Modular construction of the facility and its components offers portability. Vehicle delivery and pickup is achieved with a telescoping type drive and a shuttle slave mechanism used on a bi-directional shuttle. Hydraulic elevator operation allows the use of a single hydraulic drive unit to operate more than one skip or elevator which may include more than one vehicle on each elevator. Flexible fingers are mounted on the shuttle to retain the vehicle during delivery and retrieval and vehicle storage and retrieval is automatically accomplished.
