Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a barrier for controlling the transit of vehicles which is intended to be positioned, in particular, at motorway toll booths.
  • the onboard system of the vehicle responds to the signal emitted by the transmitter by transmitting a unique identification code.
  • the ground-based control unit registers the transit and gives the order to raise the blocking bar in order to allow the transit of the vehicle.
  • a still camera photographs or films the registration plate, in order to be able to trace the person responsible for the unauthorized transit or for the unpaid toll.
  • barriers in which the blocking bar is in turn pivoted to a supporting body (or in other cases the supporting body is pivoted to the supporting turret) about a second pivoting axis which extends along a vertical direction so as to be able to rotate, following a breakthrough impact by a vehicle passing through the barrier, from the active condition, in which it lies on a plane of arrangement that is perpendicular with respect to the direction of movement of the vehicle, to a broken through or partially broken through condition.
  • Such elastic means are adapted, on the one hand, to contrast the movement from the active condition to the broken through condition while, on the other hand, they "automatically" return the broken through bar to the active condition.
  • a common drawback of such types of barriers which in fact determines the impossibility of their use at motorway barriers, consists in the fact that the return of the blocking bar, following the break through, from the broken through condition to the active condition occurs immediately after the transit of the vehicle has finished, with the risk that the blocking bar will strike, in its return movement to the active condition due to the effect of the action of the elastic means, a second vehicle (which among others could be a motorcycle) which arrives at the barrier.
  • the blocking bar is supported by a supporting body that is rotatably coupled, about a first pivoting axis that is parallel to the direction of movement of the vehicles arriving at the barrier, to a supporting turret.
  • a motor accommodated inside the supporting turret, drives the movement of the supporting body following the detection/identification of incoming vehicles in order to allow the transit of the bar from a blocking position, in which it is arranged on a horizontal plane and transversely to the advancement direction of the vehicles, to a passage position in which it is arranged vertically and laterally with respect to the advancement direction of the vehicles.
  • the blocking bar is pivoted to the supporting body about a second pivoting axis which extends along a vertical direction.
  • elastic means which are constituted in particular by a gas-operated spring.
  • the free ends of the elastic means are pivoted, respectively, to the supporting body and to the blocking bar so that in a first step of the rotation of the bar following a breakthrough thereof by a vehicle, the elastic means work to return the bar to the normal active condition whereas, once a determined angle of rotation of the bar is exceeded, then the same elastic means operate to bring the bar to the completely broken through condition, i.e. at 90° with respect to the active condition.
  • the bar is moved to the vertical position and, during such movement, a portion of the bar slideably engages with a cam profile supported by the turret so as to exceed the preset angle of rotation and, thanks to the action of the elastic means, be brought to the active condition and thus the repositioning or redocking condition.
  • the aim of the present invention is to solve the above-mentioned problems and overcome the drawbacks, by providing a new barrier for controlling the transit of vehicles.
  • an object of the invention is to devise a barrier for controlling the transit of vehicles which makes it possible to automatically return the blocking bar, at least partially broken through following the impact of a vehicle, to the active condition without the risk that the bar could strike an arriving vehicle.
  • Another object of the invention is to make available a barrier for controlling the transit of vehicles which is extremely reliable in operation.
  • Another object of the present invention is to provide a barrier for controlling the transit of vehicles which has a contained production cost so as to render its use advantageous from an economic viewpoint as well.
  • the present invention relates to a barrier, generally designated with the reference numeral 1, for controlling the transit of vehicles, in particular in proximity to motorway toll booths.
  • the barrier 1 comprises a supporting frame 2 for a bar 4 for blocking the passage of vehicles.
  • the supporting frame 2 can be constituted by a turret structure 2a erected on the road surface.
  • the blocking bar 4 can move, following the actuation of first motor means 5, with respect to the supporting frame 2 about a first pivoting axis 100.
  • the first pivoting axis 100 extends substantially parallel to the direction of travel, designated with the arrow 200, of the vehicles passing through the barrier 1.
  • the blocking bar 4 can pass between a blocking position (shown in Figures 1 and 2 ), in which it is arranged substantially transversely with respect to the direction of travel 200 of the vehicles, and a passage position (shown in Figures 3 and 4 ), in which it is arranged laterally with respect to the direction of travel 200 of the vehicles.
  • the bar in the blocking position is arranged along a substantially horizontal direction whereas in the passage position it is arranged along a substantially vertical direction.
  • the first motor means 5 are accommodated within the supporting frame 2.
  • the blocking bar 4 can move, with respect to the supporting frame 2 (the situation shown schematically in Figures 5 and 6 ) about a second pivoting axis 101 which is substantially perpendicular to the direction of travel 200 of the vehicles and to the direction of longitudinal extension 201 of the blocking bar 4.
  • the blocking bar 4 moves, in contrast to the action of elastic means 6, from an active condition, in which the blocking bar 4 is arranged on a plane which is substantially perpendicular to the direction of travel 200 of the vehicles, to an at least partially broken through condition.
  • the barrier 1 comprises means 7 for locking the rotation of the blocking bar 4 about the second pivoting axis 101.
  • Such locking means 7 are, in particular, adapted to prevent the passage, owing to the action of the elastic means 6, of the blocking bar 4 from the at least partially broken through condition to the active condition.
  • the presence of the locking means 7 prevents the elastic means 6 from immediately, once the vehicle that caused the breakthrough of the blocking bar 4 and overshot the barrier 1, returning the blocking bar 4 to the active condition.
  • the locking means 7 can be deactivated on command in order to allow the passage of the blocking bar 4 from the at least partially broken through condition to the active condition.
  • the supporting frame 2 is connected kinematically to a supporting body 3 of the blocking bar 4.
  • the supporting body 3 is, in this case, movable, following the actuation of the first motor means 5, with respect to the supporting frame 2, about the first pivoting axis 100 so as to determine the passage of the blocking bar 4 between the blocking position and the passage position.
  • the blocking bar 4 is, moreover, movable with respect to the supporting body 3, as a consequence of the impact of a vehicle, about the second pivoting axis 101 so as to move, in contrast to the action of the elastic means 6 which operate between the supporting body 3 and the blocking bar 4, from the active condition to the at least partially broken through condition.
  • the supporting body 3 comprises a plate element 3a which lies on a substantially vertical plane.
  • the locking means 7 can be able to be deactivated following the passage of the blocking bar 4 to the passage position so as to allow the return of the blocking bar 4 from the at least partially broken through condition to the active condition in conditions of safety.
  • the barrier 1 is provided with actuation means that are adapted to block the action of the first motor means 5 following the passage of the blocking bar 1 from the active condition to the at least partially broken through condition.
  • the actuation means can, for example, be constituted by a microswitch/sensor (or more generally by a presence or position sensor) which is adapted to detect whether the blocking bar 4 is in the active condition.
  • the barrier 1 comprises means for detecting the passage of incoming vehicles at the barrier 1.
  • the detection means are functionally connected to a control unit that is adapted to control the movement of the blocking bar 1.
  • the control unit is, specifically, adapted to deactivate the locking means 7 in the absence of an incoming vehicle in order to return the blocking bar 4 from the at least partially broken through condition to the active condition.
  • control unit it is possible for the control unit to be adapted to reactivate, in the absence of an incoming vehicle and with the blocking bar 4 in the at least partially broken through condition, the first motor means 5 in order to bring the blocking bar 4 to the passage position, in a first step of repositioning or redocking operations.
  • control unit can proceed to deactivate the locking means 7 so as to complete the repositioning or redocking operations of the blocking bar 4.
  • the locking means 7 are supported by a support body 8 that is associated with the supporting body 3.
  • the support body 8 comprises a box-like body 8a which is stably connected, for example by way of fixing screws, to the supporting body 3.
  • the locking means 7 comprise, for example, a connection device 7a which is interposed between a central pivot 9, defining the second pivoting axis 101, and a coupling element 10.
  • the blocking bar 4 can be integral in rotation about the second pivoting axis 101 with the central pivot 9 or, more preferably, with the coupling element 10.
  • connection device 7a defining the locking means 7 is, in particular, adapted to allow the relative rotation of the coupling element 10 with respect to the central pivot 9 about the second pivoting axis 101 in a first direction of rotation.
  • the first direction of rotation corresponds to the movement of the blocking bar 4 from the active condition to the at least partially broken through condition.
  • connection device 7a prevents the relative rotation of the coupling element 10 with respect to the central pivot 9 about the second pivoting axis 101 in a second direction of rotation, which is opposite to the first direction of rotation and, consequently, corresponds to the movement of the blocking bar 4 from the at least partially broken through condition to the active condition.
  • the coupling element 10 comprises a keying terminal for the blocking bar 4.
  • the deactivation means comprise a motor 11.
  • the motor 11 is supported by the supporting body 8 and has an output shaft 11a which is functionally connected to the central pivot 9.
  • the motor 11 can be constituted by an irreversible gear motor, i.e. of the type characterized in that spontaneous and/or forced rotation of the output shaft 11a is prevented.
  • the motor 11 moves, on command, the central pivot 9 in the second direction of rotation, entraining the connection device 7a in rotation.
  • the interconnection body 7a comprises a freewheel or an overrunning clutch.
  • the elastic means 6 can be associated with shock absorbing means.
  • Such movement is permitted by the presence, between the central pivot 9 and the coupling element 10, of the interconnection body 7a which is constituted, for example, by the freewheel which, when the blocking bar 4 rotates in the first direction of rotation, i.e. from the active condition to the broken through condition, behaves essentially like a needle bearing.
  • the actuation means block the action of the first motor means 5.
  • the action of the first motor means 5 resumes, at the command of the control unit, in the absence of incoming vehicles, in order to bring the blocking bar 4 to the passage position.
  • the motor 11 for deactivating the locking means 7 can be activated.
  • the motor 11 is commanded to make its output shaft 11a rotate in the second direction of rotation, entraining the central pivot 9 and the freewheel in its rotation.
  • the gas-operated spring 6a can move the blocking bar 4, causing it to rotate, in a manner corresponding to the central pivot 9, in the second direction of rotation until it is in the active condition.
  • the microswitch detects the correct positioning of the blocking bar 4 in the active condition and the first motor means 5 return the blocking bar 4 to the blocking position.
  • the safety of all the steps of the redocking or of the repositioning of the blocking bar 4 is ensured by the fact that there is no way that the blocking bar 4 can move, with vehicles arriving at the barrier 1, from the at least partially broken through condition to the active condition.
  • the motor 11 which in fact makes it possible to deactivate the locking means 7, is completely decoupled, thanks to the interposition of the interconnection body 7a, from the action on the blocking bar 4 following the impact of the vehicle.
