Definitions
- the invention relates to a turnstile for a passage, with a locking element rotatable by a drive, which in the locking position has a locking arm blocking the passage, and with a sensor downstream of the locking position, the locking element, in particular after checking the access authorization of a User first releases the passage to the sensor, and then rotates in the same direction depending on the advance of the user determined by the sensor in the next locked position
- Such a turnstile can be found, for example, in WO-A 94/25720, where, after checking the access authorization, the drive motor is set in motion and the locking arm is moved by a small angle of approximately 10 ° into a stop position in which an optoelectronic sensor is released When the user has indicated that he is ready for passage by moving into the detection range of the sensor, the drive motor is switched on again via the sensor and the locking element is rotated until the next locking arm is in the locked position
- Usual turnstiles have four or three locking arms, whereby the three-arm turnstile has an approximately 45 ° inclined drive shaft for space reasons.Therefore, the space available for the user is small or short in the straight-through slot, since the turnstile functionally functions as a moving lock chamber with front and rear limits forms, and the passage of the turnstile can be particularly difficult if the user carries objects, such as sporting goods, bags etc. It always happens that the user jams himself, especially the objects between the locking arms The object of the invention is then to remedy these disadvantages and to increase the ease of passage, in particular when transporting objects
- the locking element has only a single locking arm which rotates through 360 ° between the locking positions.
- the task can also be solved be that the locking element has two locking arms offset by 180 °, each rotating between the locking positions by 180 °.
- the drive motor starts to move and rotates the locking element by an angle of at least 90 °, which in the case of a single locking arm up to can be up to 270 °, so that the passage is completely free.
- the user can now pass because there is neither a locking arm in front of nor behind him and after reaching the locking position he reaches the area of the sensor. This now sets the drive motor in motion again, so that the locking arm swings back into the locking position behind the user.
- an optoelectronic sensor is provided as the sensor, but other presence or passage detectors can also be used.
- the sensor is preferably installed above the drive shaft in the housing, so that the signal transmission to the motor control can take place in the usual way via fixed lines.
- the optoelectronic sensor can comprise at least one light scanner which is responsive to changes in reflection of a transmitted light beam and which is equipped with an external light and background suppression.
- the transmitted detection beam is reflected by the passing user.
- the reflected light strikes a first light receiver which compares the received light component with that light component which is reflected on a second light receiver from the background which is at a greater distance. Since the positions of both light receivers are adjustable, this enables the range of the detection beam to be limited by determining the distance of its intersection with the reflection beam of the second light receiver. This difference method is largely independent of the reflection properties. It is preferably provided that the light scanner emits infrared light.
- a DC motor which can be short-circuited in the stopping position, is used in particular to drive the turnstile.
- a worm wheel is preferably arranged on the drive shaft, in which a non-locking worm engages, on the shaft of which a magnetic brake and a direction of rotation detection device are provided, and which is driven by the motor via a traction means.
- the magnetic brake can be activated in particular in the locked position.
- FIG. 1 shows an oblique view of a first exemplary embodiment of the turnstile
- FIG. 2 shows a schematic top view of the locking position
- FIG. 3 shows a schematic top view of the open position
- FIG. 4 shows a schematic top view of a release position of the user
- FIG. 5 shows a schematic plan view of the next locking position
- FIG. 6 an oblique view of a second embodiment of the turnstile
- FIGS. 7 to 10 each schematic top views according to FIGS. 2 to 5 of the second embodiment.
- the height of a housing 2 of a turnstile is arranged on a frame 1.
- the turnstile is assigned to a through lane and has a locking element 3 with a locking arm 4, which is in a locking position, which is at an angle between 0 ° and about 10 ° in front of an imaginary middle locking line
- a worm wheel is attached, which engages in a non-inhibiting worm that The locking element 3 is held in the locked position of the locking arm 4 by an electromagnetic brake which acts on the shaft of the worm.
- the turnstile is also provided with an optoelectronic sensor 5, via which the drive motor is switched, and preferably a control device 7 is also provided, which has a transceiver 8 for contactless control, possibly also a magnetic card reader and a display.
- the locked position of the turnstile shows Fig. 2 to Fig 5 A user 18 standing in front of the locking arm 4 cannot be detected by the sensor, since its detection area lies behind the locking arm 4. If the control device 7 grants permission for the passage of the through lane, the brake is released and the drive motor rotates the locking arm 4 from the locked position to an intermediate position in which the motor is stopped again (FIG. 2).
- the blocking element 3 rotates by 180 ° to 210 °, so that access to the detection area 6 is possible and the passage barrier is completely free (FIG. 3) 4, it enters the detection area 6, and the sensor 5 in turn turns on the motor of the turnstile. This turns the locking element 3 in the same direction until the locking arm 4 again in the locked position arrives, in which the brake is reactivated An exact position of the locking arm is neither in the locking position nor in the intermediate position g required It is advantageous if the second partial rotation before the intermediate position into the blocking position can take place relatively quickly, so that a subsequent user cannot pass unauthorized. The second partial rotation should therefore not exceed 90 °
- the locking element 3 has two locking arms 4 offset by 180 °.
- a first partial rotation by 90 ° also leads to an open passage here, as can be seen from FIGS. 8 and 9
- the turnstile according to the invention is independent of the length of the user or of the objects moving with the user. It is therefore also conceivable that the turnstile is used on lanes for motor vehicles, for example when entering parking garages, the words "passage” and “access authorization””are to be understood as” passage “or” access authorization "
