  • a deployable bar 10, called "foot of smooth”, can be reported at the free end of the rail 4, to ensure its stable holding in the horizontal extended position. This bar 10, free in rotation about the axis 10 ', is optional and conventional.
  • the arm 4 For the operation of the arm 4, its upstream end is fixed at one end of a rotary shaft 12, centered on the axis 9; the other end of this shaft 12 is fixed in the center of a pulley 13 of large diameter.
  • This pulley 13 is operated by the motor means 3, in this case by means of a belt 14 driven by a motor pulley 15 of small diameter, itself driven in rotation by an electric motor 16.
  • the motor 16 In a conventional manner, to maintain the tension of the belt 14, the motor 16 is mounted on an articulated support, associated with a screw-spring tensioning member; the spacing between the pulleys 13 and 15 is thus effectively maintained.
  • Bottom end 17 and high 18 end systems are associated with the large diameter pulley 13 to detect its position and, in doing so, respectively detect the horizontal or vertical folded deployed position of the associated arm 4.
  • the end-of-travel systems 17 and 18 concerned here are of the electromagnetic detectors type, but they could of course be of the beam cell type or the like.
  • a counterweight 19 is fixed on the large-diameter pulley 13 to facilitate its pivoting and limit the forces required to maneuver the rail 4.
  • the battery 21 supplies electricity to the motor 16 of the engine 3 via the management plate 20; this plate 20 is also connected to the receiver system 22 and the end-of-travel systems 17 and 18 above. The different connections are made by appropriate wiring, not shown.
  • the electronic control panel 20 allows the control of the pivoting of the arm 4 according to the information provided by a transmitter system 25 cooperating with the receiver system 22.
  • the transmitter system system 25 / receiver 22 may be radio type.
  • the transmitter system 25 can then be in the form of a contactless badge, a portable remote control or other.
  • the technical box 1 can be associated with a control panel provided with a card reader system.
  • the electronic board 20 manages the direction of rotation of the drive means 3 and, in doing so, the direction of pivoting of the rail 4, as a function of the information coming from the end-of-travel systems 17 and 18, but also from a safety system 26th.
  • the device also incorporates a presence detector type security system 26, connected to the management plate 20.
  • This security system has the task of preventing a return to the horizontal deployed position of the bar while a vehicle or an individual is still in its path, but also to ensure the automatic descent of the beam to its horizontal deployed position when its trajectory is clear of any obstacle.
  • this box 6 can be oriented at will in the space so as to optimize the efficiency of the photovoltaic cells 8 as a function of the solar path, and this independently of the positioning of the associated technical box 1.
  • the cabinet 6 is swiveling in the space around a vertical axis 28 which extends coaxially with the longitudinal axis of the technical box assembly 1 / cabinet 6; in addition, the upper face 29 of this cabinet 6, as well as the photovoltaic cell panel 8, are inclined at an angle of the order of 45 ° relative to the horizontal.
