A round thing: the new bicycle carousel from WSM
Companies, municipalities and landlords want to offer cyclists safe and comfortable parking spaces. And that in as small an area as possible.
To meet this need, we have developed a new type of bicycle carousel together with the Dutch engineering company Lo Minck Systemen B.V.. The VeloUp! parking system is rotatably arranged around the stand column of the hexagonal Regensburg canopy, so that up to 16 bicycles can be parked in a space-saving and rain-protected manner and can be parked and unparked from a single position.
Bicycles, mountain bikes or pedelecs weighing up to 30 kg can be conveniently moved to a suspended position with the patented, maintenance-free parking system. Compared to horizontal parking systems, this results in a space saving of around 40 percent. To park a bike safely, all you need to do is lift it slightly by the front wheel and hook the rim into a small holder attached to a support arm. The system does the rest by itself, gently moving the arm upward and bringing the bike into a safe, vertical position. To park out, all you have to do is pull on the bike’s seat.
For the novel bicycle carousel, “VelowUp!” was combined with our Shelter system of the Regensburg series. With a transparent roof made of 4 mm thick clear Lexan, the Bicycle parking system provides weather protection for up to 16 bicycles on a footprint just 3.5 m in diameter. Energy-saving LED lighting is available as an equipment option. To accommodate even more bicycles, VelowUp! can also be integrated into other canopies of.
