Innovatively Simple Architecture for Quick Construction
Earthquake-proof wall composed of pressed-in piles, and Press-in Method realises amazingly quick construction. Based on the innovative Press-in method originally developed by Giken, the Eco-cycle is completed by using prefabricated materials with least temporary works.
1
Pressing-in piles to form cylindrical wall by using a dedicatedly designed Silent Piler.

2
Excavation inside the shaft to create the underground space.

Environmentally-Friendly Design (Eco-design)
Sustainable Life Cycle of Construction Material
![Functional Structure](http://www.giken.com/img/en/developments/eco_cycle/construction05.jpg?1302509027)
As time passes, public needs change. once old architectures no longer respond to public demand, they had better to be removed easily. This is what public work supposed to be from now.
It is possible to remove the piles installed to form the wall structure of the Eco-cycle, and they can be reused for other purposes.
The Eco-cycle can perform necessary function in necessary time period, and then it can be easily removed once it is no longer necessary. In this respect the Eco-cycle has function-oriented recyclable life cycle. It is considered as “Functional
Space-saving and Compact Design
Various types of bicycles which are popular in Japanese market can be loaded in the Eco-cycle. They are mountain bikes, heavy electric bicycle, compact foldable bicycle, bicycle with rear basket and bicycle with child seat.

asy handling & Quick Operation
Loading and unloading operations of bicycle are fully controlled automatically. What user has to do is to follow the voice announcement. It is a user-friendly parking even for the elderly. In addition, there are many sensors to keep users in safe.
1
IC tag fixed on front frame of bicycle is read automatically by the sensor in front of the Entrance Door, and then the Front Wheel Shutter opens automatically. Then, the front wheel should be placed into the open space.
![ECO Cycle Loading Operation 1](http://www.giken.com/img/en/developments/eco_cycle/operation01.jpg?1302509028)
2
After the front wheel is fixed by the Clamp, step away from the mat and then press “the Loading Button”.
![ECO Cycle Loading Operation 2](http://www.giken.com/img/en/developments/eco_cycle/operation02.jpg?1302509028)
3
The Entrance Door opens automatically and then the bicycle is conveyed into the Eco-cycle. The door closes automatically. It is the end of loading operation.

1
Show your IC Card to the Card Reader.
![ECO Cycle Unloading Operation 1](http://www.giken.com/img/en/developments/eco_cycle/operation06.jpg?1302509029)
2
Step out from the mat and wait.

4
The Transporting Tray conveys the bicycle up with revolving action.
![ECO Cycle Unloading Operation 4](http://www.giken.com/img/en/developments/eco_cycle/operation09.jpg?1302509030)
5
After the Entrance Door opens, the bicycle is unloaded. Follow the announcement and take the bicycle.
