Description

C description

The invention relates to a device for controlling the access in a through-lane, in particular for controlling persons, consisting of a housing for receiving electronic components, which comprise, for example, readers for tickets, wherein the housing also forms a lateral boundary of the through-track.

Devices of the genus according to the invention are used, for example, to control tickets at ski lifts, in stadiums and the like.

It is such a device with a turnstile known, the turnstile is mounted on metal pipes on the ground. On the turnstile housing in turn a carrier is mounted, which carries a ticket reader. This ticket reader consists of a housing for the required electronic components of a magnetic card reader. Furthermore, an antenna for non-contact smart cards is attached to the turnstile. A disadvantage of this device is that card reader, antenna and turnstile must be connected electrically consuming each other and these connections are very error prone. In case of failure, troubleshooting is difficult and troubleshooting expensive.

The invention overcomes these disadvantages by housing comprising a vertically extending tube profile which is mounted in a manner known per se on the bottom and / or above the bottom of the through-rail and in that the tube profile has recesses facing the passageway, which recesses are closed by covers wherein the cover are also formed as a support for electrical and / or mechanical components of the identification module, so that the cover are exchangeable together with the respective components. A significant advantage arises from the fact that in case of failure, the respective component can be quickly and easily replaced by the cover is changed together with the associated electronic parts. This change takes place from the outside without the device itself must be disassembled.

It is advantageous if the lid can be fastened with a quick release over the recesses of the pipe profile.

The invention will be explained in more detail with reference to an embodiment. 1 shows a side view, Figure 2 is a plan view and Figure 3 is an oblique view of the device according to the invention. FIG. 4 shows a detail in the region of the cover, FIG. 5 shows a schematic side view of a cover with electronics module and FIG. 6 shows its front view.

A ESS

The oblique view of Figure 3 shows a arranged on the left side of the through-lane 2 to be controlled, vertically extending tube profile 1. The tube profile 1 has directed towards the through-track 2 towards three recesses 3,3 'and 3 "on. On the pipe section 1, a frame 9 is fixed with screws, which is provided with two spaced apart plastic plates (not shown). Behind the front plate a pipe antenna 8 is fixed, the rear plate is provided with a conductive layer as a shield. Tube profile and plates form a long-range antenna for contactless RFID chip cards.

The uppermost recess 3 of the tubular profile 1 is provided with a lid 14 which carries on its inside a controller 10 for controlling the device for access control. Furthermore, a breakthrough is provided in the lid 14, in which a display 11 is arranged to display information. In the event of a malfunction, the lid 14 can be removed by opening its quick release and exchanged with the entire electronics 10. Troubleshooting and rectification is greatly simplified and accelerated.

In the middle of the three recesses 14 'of the tubular profile 1, a lid 13 is arranged, which carries on the inside a reading module for barcode tickets. The lid 12 itself has a breakthrough 16, so barcode tickets can be inserted. Again, in the event of a fault, the entire module - lid 12 with barcode reader - can be replaced immediately and easily.

The lower recess 3 "is closed by a cover 12 which carries on the inside an RFID reader module (not shown).

The connections between the electronic components are easy to make by a harness that extends inside the tube profile 1 and is protected. Errors in one of the components are easily remedied by removing the respective lid 12, 13 or 14 and replacing it with a replacement module.

Tube profile 1 and antenna 7 at the same time also form the lateral boundary of the through-lane 2.
