Application of CAN in Lifting and Sliding Mechanical Parking Garage

Abstract

Nowadays, as a result of the serious shortage of parking spaces in major city all over China, people often feel it’s difficult to park their cars. Building mechanical parking garage has become an important way to solve this problem. Lifting and sliding mechanical parking garage is the most widely used mechanical parking garage. At present, lifting and sliding mechanical parking garage widely adopts centralized control system based on PLC. But there are several disadvantages in this kind of control system, suck as structural complexity, weak expansibility, and high cost. With the advantages of simple structure, strong expansibility, low cost and high reliability, CAN bus control system is widely used in the mechanical parking garage. The major mission of this paper is to study the control system of lifting and sliding mechanical parking garage based on CAN bus.
