Definitions

  • the application relates to a gate arrangement, in particular for a passenger transport system, with at least two passage barriers.
  • the application relates to a method and a passenger transport system.
  • Access control systems or gate arrangements for controlling access from an uncontrolled area to a controlled area and/or vice versa are used, for example, in passenger transport systems.
  • a present passenger transport system in particular a public passenger transport system, is used to transport people or users using passenger transport vehicles (hereinafter referred to as transport vehicles).
  • passenger transport vehicles hereinafter referred to as transport vehicles.
  • Exemplary and non-exhaustive transport vehicles of a passenger transport system are rail vehicles (e.g. S-Bahn, subway, tram, etc.), motor vehicles (e.g. bus), but also watercraft (e.g. ferry) and aircraft.
  • gate arrangements are also used in other applications in which the authorization of users to enter or leave a controlled area is to be checked, such as at sporting, cultural or leisure events.
  • a gate arrangement comprises at least two passage barriers.
  • a passage barrier (also referred to as a gate) is designed to selectively block and selectively enable entry (in particular entry) from a first area to a second area.
  • a passage barrier can in particular ensure that only authorized or authorised users can use the passage barrier. can pass through, for example to enter and/or leave the controlled area.
  • a gate arrangement is configured to check a user's ticket medium or the user's access authorization on it before allowing passage through a barrier.
  • a user can have a ticket medium with an access authorization that can be read by a reading module (e.g. a ticket code such as a magnetic stripe code, graphic ticket code such as a barcode or QR code, RFID identifier, another readable user or mobile device identifier, etc.).
  • the ticket code can contain at least the user's access authorization and/or an identification of the user, based on which the access authorization can be checked.
  • a barrier In an initial state, a barrier is usually locked. This means that a blocking element of the barrier physically prevents a user from passing through the barrier. In other cases, the barrier may be open in the initial state and only close if a user without a valid access authorization or a valid ticket medium tries to pass through the barrier.
  • barriers that do not require any locking elements and that only signal passage visually. Without limiting the generality, it is assumed below that a barrier is locked in its initial state and is opened to allow the user to pass through if the validation check of a user's ticket medium is positive.
  • a passage barrier can have at least one reading module or a ticket detection device.
  • Known reading modules include optical reading modules, in particular designed to capture images of a graphic ticket code (e.g. barcode or QR code) of a ticket medium in a detection area of the reading module, as well as reading modules for magnetic stripe tickets, smart card-based tickets (NFC), tickets on mobile devices, etc.

Holding the ticket medium 118 to the reading module 111, 112 can in particular be referred to as tapping.
  • the gate arrangement 100 shown comprises a first through-stop 101 and a second through-stop 102, which is arranged adjacent to the first through-stop 101.
  • the first passage barrier 101 has a first (elongated) gate body 103 and a second (elongated) gate body 104 arranged adjacent (in particular parallel) to the first gate body 103.

If the validation test result is negative, i.e. if it is determined that the ticket medium 118 is an invalid ticket medium or does not contain a valid access authorization, the first passage barrier 101 can remain blocked by holding the at least one blocking element 109 in the closed or blocked position.
  • the second passage barrier 102 has a third (elongated) gate body 105 and a fourth gate body 106 arranged adjacent (in particular parallel) to the third gate body 105.

  • two second blocking elements 110 are provided.
  • the at least one second blocking element 110 can be moved between an open position and a closed position by at least one second actuator 117 (in the present case also two second actuators 117). In the closed position, in which, for example, the at least one second blocking element 110 is in the Figure 1a , the passage 108 is blocked by the second passage barrier 102 or is not possible.
  • the fourth gate body 106 has at least one second reading module 112, which is set up to detect a ticket medium 118 held by a user 113 within (reading) range of the second reading module 112.
  • the at least one second actuator 117 is set up to move the second blocking element 110 , at least based on a validation check of the recorded ticket medium 118.

  • the user 113 presents the ticket medium 118 to the (ticket) reading module 111 which, viewed in the direction of passage, is on the right side of the passage 107 that the user 113 wants to use.
  • the user 113 will present the ticket medium 118 with his right hand, as shown. It is understood that With other registration variants, the correct reading module can also be on the other side of a passage.
  • the ticket medium 118 is a valid ticket medium 118, so that the first locking element 109 is opened as shown.
  • Figure 1b is a schematic (top) view of the exemplary prior art gate arrangement 100 according to Figure 1a in a mapping error state.
  • an assignment error state means in particular that a user 113 holds his ticket medium 118 to the reading module 111, 112 that is not assigned to the passage barrier 101, 102 in whose access area 119, 120 the user 113 is located during the presentation of the ticket medium 118 to the reading module 111, 112.
  • the user 113 presents the ticket medium 118 to the reading module 111, which is assigned to the first passage barrier 101. However, the user himself is standing in front of the second passage barrier 102.
  • the ticket medium 118 is a valid ticket medium 118, so that the first locking element 109 of the first passage barrier is opened, as shown.
  • FIG. 1b illustrates a situation in which a user 113 (e.g. a left-handed person or a user 113 carrying something in the right hand, such as a piece of luggage) presents the ticket medium 118 to the reading module 111 or validation target 111 , to which the user 113 is not aligned or assigned with regard to the passage 108.
  • This situation or this incorrect operating process can also be referred to as so-called “left-hand tapping”.
  • the expectation of the user 113 is that the blocking elements 110 of the second passage barrier 102 in front of him will open.
  • the blocking elements 109 of the first passage barrier 101 which is to the left of the user 113 in the illustration, open.
  • association error condition often occurs when a low volume of users can be observed at the gate array. If there are many other users at the gate array, it is possible to learn by observation which reader module is associated with which gate.
  • mapping error condition occurs frequently in users who are left-handed. It is probably intuitive for a significant number of left-handed people to hold the ticket medium in their left hand and therefore guide it to the reading module with their left hand. Due to the stretched left arm, the area of attention is oriented more to the right due to the associated body position, so that under certain circumstances it is not noticed that the passage barrier on the left is opening. The perceived failure leads to a new attempt being made on an adjacent reading module on the right, if necessary. This behavior could be observed in practice on gate arrangements.
  • mapping error condition often occurs when a user has both hands in use.
  • gate arrangements that users take the ticket medium in their left hand if the right hand is already in use (e.g. for holding a bag, a mobile device, etc.) and sometimes accordingly go to the wrong reading module with the expectation that the passage barrier in front of them will open.
  • mapping error condition or the situation described above can result in various problems/disadvantages.
  • the gate arrangement can be passed at the expense of the user who assumed that the reading module was incorrectly assigned to the pass-through barrier.
  • the ticket medium also referred to as a stored value ticket
  • the fee required for the passage is deducted without the user actually using the passage. If there are several incorrect attempts in a row, this can even happen multiple times, depending on the system.
  • a so-called anti-passback function can be implemented in the access control system.
  • This function is intended to prevent a ticket medium from being passed back to the other side of the gate arrangement to another user after a first passage through a gate arrangement by a first user, who can then also use the ticket medium for passage.
  • a certain dead time e.g. 10 minutes
  • This dead time starts after a (positive) validation check of the ticket medium or it It is checked whether the recorded identifier has already been used within a certain previous period of time, namely the dead time. Only after this dead time has expired can this ticket medium be used again. A previous attempt at use leads to a negative test result, so that a corresponding passage barrier or the entire gate arrangement remains blocked.
  • assignment error states described also lead to problems from a cost perspective, since the deployment of service personnel at the gate arrangements is required to resolve an assignment error state in the interests of the user. If a user's anger resulting from the problems becomes public, e.g. B. via social media, passenger associations, etc., this may lead to damage to the image of the operator of the passenger transport system, which in turn would require complex reactions.
  • an allocation error state or left-hand tapping leads to a reduced throughput at a gate arrangement.
  • an allocation error state can impede the flow of users.
  • passive measures are known from the prior art, which aim to make it easier for the user to correctly assign the reading module or validation target and the passage barrier or passage optically or by geometrically aligning the reading module.
  • the arrangement of symbols and/or colors on the gate arrangement is also known, such as green arrows that point from the reading module to the pass barrier assigned to this reading module.
