turntable
::: necessity is the mother of inventions...in japan, where cars abound and parking space is limited, creative parking solutions are not surprising...
...suppose you have a 1.00 afternoon business meeting in downtown kobe...
...when you arrive at the parking station (a narrow tall building, one per block, typically sandwiched between office buildings), you stop your car in front of a big elevator...that elevator is not for you...it's for your car...you take a ticket from an attendant, who promptly drives your car head-first into the elevator, where your car is stored in a movable stall...
...it's 11.30pm and your meeting was long and unproductive and you want to go home pronto to take a hot bath..you give your ticket to the attendant, who operates your movable stall, brings your car down on the elevator...but your car is still facing the elevator, creating a hazard, esp. if you're getting on a busy roadway...
...that's where the car turntable comes in...
