Method and device for managing slot parking of motor vehicles
First Claim
1. A method for managing the slot parking of a mobile vehicle (1) which can be used to park any type of motorized vehicle, the wheels of a common axle of which can be locked, with respect to the immediate surroundings (3) which may be found on public roads, private parking lots and production sites of enterprises, said slot parking (15) consisting of at least two phases, namely a locking phase (23, 25) and a reverse-locking phase (26, 27), and possibly of two other phases, namely a positioning phase (19, 22) which precedes the two locking and reverse-locking phases and a realignment phase (28, 29) which follows the reverse-locking phase, said method using measurement sensors (36) for measuring distance, orientation and speed which make it possible to evaluate (10) the space available (2) with respect to the immediate surroundings (3) so as to perform the parking maneuver, the latter being carried out by operating on the speed, the direction of travel and the relative lock of the wheels of the vehicle, characterized in that, in order to carry out parking (15):
- the input data originating from the measurement sensors (36) which provide quantitative values are retrieved, some of these quantitative input values are translated into gradual qualitative input values, on the basis of qualitative rules, operating instructions are determined which provide gradual qualitative output data and quantitative output data, these gradual qualitative output data are transformed into quantitative output data, the actuators of the vehicle (1) are controlled as a function of the quantitative output data obtained.

Abstract
A method and a device for slot parking of a mobile vehicle (1), the slot parking (15) includes positioning (19,22), locking (23,25), unlocking (26,27) and realigning (28,29) phases, the method using elements to evaluate available parking space relative to immediate surroundings. The method consists in: retrieving quantitative input values from sensors, which are transformed or not into gradual qualitative input values; determining on the basis of qualitative rules operating instructions which supply gradual qualitative output data and quantitative output data, which are transformed into quantitative output data to control the vehicle actuators. The invention is useful for parking any type of powered vehicles whereof the wheel can be locked on a common axle, and can be used on public roads, private parking lots or production sites of companies.
