Abstract

A method of blocking passage of a user through a passageway comprising a turnstile with a housing; a drive and a locking element in which a barrier arm is set in motion following verification of the access authorization of a user wishing to pass, rotating the barrier arm from its blocking position into a position out of line of passage. The advance of the user is then detected by a downstream sensor, in particular an opto-electronic sensor, which causes the barrier arm to rotate further in the same direction into the blocking position.

Description

D r e h s p e r r e D r e h s p e r r e
Die Erfindung betrifft eine Drehsperre für einen Durchgang, mit einem von einem An¬ trieb verdrehbaren Sperrelement, das in der Sperrstellung einen den Durchgang sperrenden Sperrarm aufweist, und mit einem der Sperrstellung nachgeordneten Sen¬ sor, wobei das Sperrelement, insbesondere nach Prüfung der Zutrittsberechtigung eines Benutzers zuerst den Durchgang zum Sensor freigibt, und sich dann in Abhängigkeit von dem vom Sensor festgestellten Vorrucken des Benutzers gleichsinnig in die nächste Sperrstellung weiterdrehtThe 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
Eine derartige Drehsperre ist beispielsweise der WO-A 94/25720 zu entnehmen Dort wird nach Überprüfung der Zutrittsberechtigung der Antriebsmotor in Bewegung gesetzt und der Sperrarm um einen kleinen Winkel von etwa 10° in eine An¬ haltestellung bewegt, in der ein optoelektronischer Sensor freigegeben ist Wenn der Benutzer seine Durchgangsbereitschaft dadurch zu erkennen gegeben hat, daß er in den Detektionsbereich des Sensors nachgeruckt ist, so wird über den Sensor der Antriebsmotor nochmals in Betrieb gesetzt und das Sperrelement so lange gedreht, bis der nächste Sperrarm in der Sperrstellung hegtSuch 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
Übliche Drehsperren haben vier oder drei Sperrarme, wobei aus Platzgrunden die dreiarmige Drehsperre eine etwa um 45° geneigte Antriebswelle aufweist In der Durchangsnchtung ist daher der für den Benutzer vorhandene Raum klein bzw kurz, da die Drehsperre funktionell eine sich bewegende Schleusenkammer mit vorderer und hinterer Begrenzung bildet, und die Passage der Drehsperre kann vor allem dann mit Schwierigkeiten verbunden sein, wenn der Benutzer Gegenstande, beispielsweise Sportartikel, Taschen ete mit sich fuhrt Es kommt immer wieder vor, daß sich die Benutzer selbst, vor allem die Gegenstande zwischen den Sperrarmen verklemmen Die Aufgabe der Erfindung liegt nun dann, diese Nachteile zu beheben und den Durchgangskomfort, insbesondere beim Transport von Gegenstanden zu erhohenUsual 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
Dies wird in einer ersten Ausfuhrung dadurch erreicht, daß das Sperrelement nur einen einzigen Sperrarm aufweist, der sich zwischen den Sperrstellungen jeweils um 360° verdreht Alternativ kann in einer zweiten Ausfuhrung die Aufgabe auch dadurch gelost werden, daß das Sperrelement zwei um 180° versetzte Sperrarme aufweist, die sich zwischen den Sperrstellungen jeweils um 180° verdrehen.This is achieved in a first embodiment in that the locking element has only a single locking arm which rotates through 360 ° between the locking positions. Alternatively, in a second embodiment 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 °.
Wird nun die Passage durch die Einrichtung zur Kontrolle der Zutrittsberechtigung (Fahrkartenleser, Münzautomat, Kontrollperson, usw.) gestattet, so setzt sich der Antriebsmotor in Bewegung, und verdreht das Sperrelement um einen Winkel von mindestens 90°, der im Falle eines einzigen Sperrarmes bis zu 270° betragen kann, sodaß der Durchgang völlig frei ist. Der Benutzer kann nun, da weder vor noch hinter ihm ein Sperrarm in den Durchgang ragt, passieren und gelangt nach Überschreiten der Sperrstellung in den Bereich des Sensors. Dieser setzt nun den Antriebsmotor wieder in Bewegung, sodaß der Sperrarm hinter dem Benutzer wieder in die Sperrstellung einschwenkt.If the passage is now permitted by the device for controlling the access authorization (ticket reader, coin machine, control person, etc.), 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.
Somit sind nur soviele Sperrarme vorhanden, daß es zumindest eine Stellung gibt, in der der Durchgang in seiner gesamten Breite ohne Einengung und Behinderung passierbar ist. Dennoch sind aber alle Anforderungen an die Drehsperre, nämlich eine mechanische Sperre gegen einen unerlaubten Durchgang in beiden Richtungen, sowie alle üblichen Möglichkeiten zur Kontrolle, zur Vereinzelung einer Reihe von Benutzern und zur Zählung gegeben. Ein besonderer Vorteil liegt dabei auch darin, daß für eine Notfallschaltung der Antrieb nur in der Stellung des Sperrelementes nach der ersten Teildrehung außer Funktion gesetzt zu werden braucht. Es sind hiefür weder Teile auszukuppeln noch zu demontieren, da der Durchgang nach der ersten Teildrehung völlig frei ist.Thus, there are only so many locking arms that there is at least one position in which the entire width of the passage can be passed without being restricted or obstructed. Nevertheless, all requirements for the turnstile, namely a mechanical lock against unauthorized passage in both directions, as well as all the usual options for checking, separating a number of users and counting are given. A particular advantage is that the drive only needs to be deactivated in the position of the locking element after the first partial rotation for an emergency switching. Neither parts have to be disengaged nor dismantled because the passage is completely free after the first part rotation.
Als Sensor ist in einer bevorzugten Ausführung ein optoelektronischer Sensor vorgesehen, doch sind auch andere Anwesenheits- bzw. Passagedetektoren verwendbar.In a preferred embodiment, an optoelectronic sensor is provided as the sensor, but other presence or passage detectors can also be used.
Der Sensor ist bevorzugt oberhalb der Antriebswelle im Gehäuse installiert, sodaß die Signalübertragung zur Motorsteuerung in üblicher Weise über feste Leitungen erfolgen kann. Der optoelektronische Sensor kann zumindest einen auf Reflexionsänderungen eines ausgesendeten Lichtstrahles ansprechenden Lichttaster umfassen, der mit einer Fremdlicht- und Hintergrundausblendung ausgestattet ist. Der ausgesendete Detektionsstrahl wird vom passierenden Benutzer reflektiert. Das reflektierte Licht trifft auf einen ersten Lichtempfänger, der den empfangenen Lichtanteil mit jenem Lichtanteil vergleicht, der auf einen zweiten Lichtempfänger von dem im größeren Ab¬ stand liegenden Hintergrund reflektiert wird. Da die Positionen beider Lichtempfänger justierbar sind, ermöglicht dies die Begrenzung der Reichweite des Detektionsstrahles durch Festlegung des Abstandes seines Schnittpunktes mit dem Reflexionsstrahl des zweiten Lichtempfängers. Dieses Differenzverfahren ist weitgehend unabhängig von den Reflexionseigenschaften. Bevorzugt ist dabei vorgesehen, daß der Lichttaster Infrarotlicht aussendet.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.
Für den Antrieb der Drehsperre dient insbesondere ein Gleichstrommotor, der in der Anhaltestellung kurzgeschlossen werden kann. Weiters ist bevorzugt auf der Antriebs¬ welle ein Schneckenrad angeordnet, in das eine nichthemmende Schnecke eingreift, auf deren Welle eine Magnetbremse und eine Drehrichtungserkennungseinrichtung vorgesehen ist, und die vom Motor über einen Zugmittel angetrieben wird. Die Magnet- bremse kann insbesondere in der Sperrstellung aktiviert sein.A DC motor, which can be short-circuited in the stopping position, is used in particular to drive the turnstile. Furthermore, 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.
Nachstehend wird nun die Erfindung an Hand der Figuren der beiliegenden Zeichnungen näher beschrieben, ohne darauf beschränkt zu sein.The invention will now be described in more detail below with reference to the figures of the accompanying drawings, without being limited thereto.

Auf einem Gestell 1 ist das Gehäuse 2 einer Drehsperre höhenverstellbar angeordnet. Die Drehsperre ist einer Durchgangsspur zugeordnet, und weist ein Sperrelement 3 mit einem Sperrarm 4 auf, der sich in einer Sperrstellung befindet, die in einem Winkel zwischen 0° und etwa 10° vor einer gedachten mittleren Sperrlinie liegt Auf der Welle des Sperrelementes 3 ist ein Schneckenrad befestigt, in die eine nicht hemmende Schnecke eingreift, die von einem elektrischen Antriebsmotor über ein Zugmittel angetrieben wird Das Sperrelement 3 wird in der Sperrstellung des Sperrarmes 4 durch eine elektromagnetische Bremse gehalten, die an der Welle der Schnecke angreift An der Welle ist auch eine Drehπchtungs- und Drehwmkelerkennungsscheibe angeordnet, der ein Detektor zugeordnet ist Die Drehsperre ist weiters mit einem optoelektronischen Sensor 5 versehen, über den der Antriebsmotor geschaltet wird, und bevorzugt ist weiters auch eine Kontrolleinrichtung 7 vorgesehen, die eine Sende- Empfangseinheit 8 für eine beruhrungslose Kontrolle, gegebenenfalls auch einen Magnetkartenleser und ein Display aufweist Die Sperrstellung der Drehsperre zeigt Fig 2 bis Fig 5 Ein vor dem Sperrarm 4 stehender Benutzer 18 kann vom Sensor nicht erfaßt werden, da dessen Detektionsbereich hinter dem Sperrarm 4 liegt Gewahrt die Kontrolleinrichtung 7 die Erlaubnis für die Passage der Durchgangsspur, wird die Bremse gelost und der Antriebsmotor verdreht den Sperrarm 4 aus der Sperrstellung in eine Zwischenstellung, in der der Motor wieder stillgesetzt wird (Fig 2) Das Sperrelement 3 verdreht sich dabei um 180° bis 210°, sodaß der Zugang zum Detektionsbereich 6 möglich und die Durchgangssperre völlig frei ist (Fig 3) Geht der Benutzer 18 nach vorne weiter, so tritt er, wie aus Fig 4 ersichtlich ist, in den Detektionsbereich 6 ein, und über den Sensor 5 wird wiederum der Motor der Drehsperre eingeschaltet Dieser verdreht das Sperrelement 3 im gleichen Drehsinn weiter, bis der Sperrarm 4 wieder in die Sperrstellung gelangt, in der die Bremse wieder aktiviert wird Eine exakte Position des Sperrarmes ist weder in der Sperrstellung noch in der Zwischenstellung erforderlich Gunstig ist, wenn die zweite Teildrehung vor der Zwischenstellung in die Sperrstellung verhältnismäßig rasch erfolgen kann, sodaß ein nachfolgender Benutzer nicht unerlaubt passieren kann Die zweite Teildrehung sollte daher 90° nicht überschreitenThe 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 On the shaft of the locking element 3, 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. On the shaft there is also a rotation and rotation detection disk which is assigned a detector 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 °
In der zweiten Ausfuhrung gemäß Fig 6 bis 10 weist das Sperrelement 3 zwei um 180° versetzte Sperrarme 4 auf Eine erste Teildrehung um 90° fuhrt auch hier zu einem offenen Durchgang, wie sich aus der Fig 8 und 9 ersehen laßt Die erfindungsgemaße Drehsperre ist von der Lange des Benutzers bzw der mit dem Benutzer sich bewegenden Gegenstande unabhängig Daher ist es auch denkbar, daß die Drehsperre an Fahrspuren für Kraftfahrzeuge, beispielsweise bei der Einfahrt in Parkgaragen eingesetzt wird, wobei die Worte "Durchgang" und "Zutrittsberechtigung" als "Durchfahrt" bzw "Zufahrberechtigung" zu verstehen sind In the second embodiment according to FIGS. 6 to 10, 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 "
