Robotic Parking Systems, Inc. is covered
by the following insurances in the U.S.A:
·
Umbrella liability coverage with aggregates:
$ 4 million per occurrence
·
Design Omission & Errors with aggregates:
$ 2 million per occurrence
·
Breakdown insurances with coverage from
$1 million to $ 5 million
As a note, a major factor in the reduction
of the product liability is the benefit of
the pallets utilized as a standard in the
Robotic Parking ™ Technology system!
By providing pallets for an automatic parking
system it not only prevents any drippings
of oil, acid or salt water onto cars from
machinery or cars on upper levels, but it
also (and of vital importance) guarantees
that no machinery ever touches any vehicle.
This, coupled with the quality maintenance
program, provides one of the highest standards
of product liability for automated parking
facilities.
Our United States Patent:
Robotic Parking Systems is the holder of
United States Patent # 5,669,753 for an automated
parking garage (as well as several additional
patents pending). The patent gives us the
exclusive right to exclude others from making,
using, offering for sale, or selling our patented
technology throughout the United States of
America or importing the technology into the
United States.
The patent, issued on September 23, 1997,
covers an automated parking garage, which
simultaneously parks and retrieves multiple
vehicles. The basic patent claim is for the
methodology for parking vehicles in a parking
garage having more than one floor, comprising
the following steps:
·
A customer drives his/her vehicle into an
arrival station and parks it on a solid pallet;
·
After being appropriately activated, a central
computer system directs a moveable carrier on
steel rails or other suitable surface, along
an open aisle-way to a position immediately
adjacent to the arrival station and the pallet;
·
Utilizing a separately moveable rack entry
module immediately above the upper surface of
the carrier, which is inserted beneath the pallet,
the pallet and the vehicle are transferred to
the carrier;
·
Again at the direction of the computer,
the carrier, together with the pallet and the
vehicle, are moved from the arrival station
to a multi-level lifting device where the pallet
and the vehicle are transferred to the lift;
·
When the lift reaches the properly designated
parking level, the pallet and the vehicle are
transferred to another carrier, which had been
directed by the computer to make the pick up.
·
This carrier then transports the pallet
and the vehicle to the parking slot designated
by the computer;
·
Finally, the pallet and the vehicle are
moved into the parking slot by the rack entry
module.
Retrieval of the pallet and the vehicle is
accomplished by a reverse of the storage methodology.
At no time during the process does the vehicle
leave the pallet to which it was initially
assigned.
The system is such, that multiple storage
and retrieval activities can be in process
at any time.
In order to provide our customers a limited
exclusivity, all Robotic Automated Parking
Systems, manufactured, sold or delivered by
Robotic Parking Systems, or any authorized
representative, will be appropriately licensed
to the end user. To assure such limited exclusivity
and protect the licensure rights of our customers,
we intend to vigorously defend our patented
automated parking methodology against infringement
by any person, persons or entities.
