Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a gate device provided at a gate of a house or the like, and more particularly to a gate device useful for installing and using electric equipment or the like.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, gates equipped with electric devices such as intercom slaves, electronic locks, and nameplate lights have been used at gates of houses and the like. Conventionally, such power supply to the gate has been performed by wiring a power line from a house through a dirt floor or the like.

[0003]

Therefore, in the past, it took a lot of time and labor to install a power supply line from a house to a gate when constructing a gate equipped with electric equipment on the gate. That is, the wiring work of the power supply line is done by piping in the soil from the house to the gate, passing the cable through it and embedding it, and connecting the end of the cable to the terminal of the power supply line pulled out from the electrical equipment at the gate. And required complicated work. In addition, it is obligatory by law to carry out the wiring work of the power line which has a risk of electric shock, etc., and it is usually required to be done by an electrician who has the qualification of an electrician. For that reason, the exterior construction contractor and the electric construction contractor frequently come and go, and it takes time and effort to manage and adjust the construction period, which leads to a longer construction period. In addition, since the gate is generally rotatably suspended by a barnacle or the like on the gate pillar, the power supply line drawn from the electric device of the gate will straddle the rotating portion between the gate and the pillar, The power supply line exposed at this portion was easy to break and did not look good.

The present invention has been made in view of the above circumstances, and provides a gate device which does not require wiring of a power line to a gate equipped with an electric device.

[0005]

According to a first aspect of the present invention, there is provided a gate device in which a solar cell panel is provided on a front surface of a gate body and a battery is provided on a rear surface of the gate body, and the solar cell panel charges the battery and the battery is removed from the battery. It is characterized in that power is supplied to an electric device installed in the gate body.

In this gate device, the solar cell panel and the battery are integrally provided in the gate body as a power source for the electric equipment installed in the gate body, so that the electric equipment is supplied with power from the outside by wiring the power line. It can be done without cost. Therefore, when constructing the gate device, wiring work for the power line at the construction site becomes unnecessary,
Construction labor is reduced. Further, since the battery is provided on the back surface of the gate body, the battery cannot be seen from the front side of the gate device.

According to a second aspect of the invention, the gate device according to the first aspect is characterized in that a mail box is provided on the back surface of the gate body, and the battery is built in the mail box. is there.

In this gate device, since the battery is hidden by being built in a mail box provided on the back side of the gate body, the existence of the battery is not apparent, and the appearance on the back side of the gate body is not apparent. There is no feeling of strangeness.

According to a third aspect of the present invention, in the gate apparatus according to the first or second aspect, a foot light is provided on the surface of the gate main body.

In this gate device, power can be supplied to the foot lights from the battery, and since the foot lights are provided on the surface of the gate body, the effect of illuminating the feet is most effectively exhibited. Is. That is, when the foot lamp is provided on the surface of the gate main body, when a person passes through the gate to which the gate main body is attached, it is possible to illuminate the traveling direction of the person passing through the gate as the gate main body is opened. Therefore, it is more effective than the case where it is installed on a gatepost.

Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 shows an example of a gate using a gate device according to an embodiment of the present invention,
(A) is a front view and (B) is a top view.

As shown in the figure, in the gate device according to the embodiment, a solar cell panel 7 is provided on the front surface of the gate body 1 and a battery 6 is provided on the back surface thereof, and the battery 6 is charged by the solar cell panel 7 and 6 is configured to supply electric power to an electric device installed in the gate main body 1, and a gate using this gate device does not require wiring from a house.

In this embodiment, the gate main body 1 is composed of two left and right rectangular gate panels 1a and 1b, and two gate panels 1a and 1b are erected so as to face each other. Square pillar type gate pillars 9, 9
A gate is formed by suspending rotatably by 5 so as to open and close in a double door. And in this embodiment, the solar cell panel 7 and the battery 6 are provided in the one gate panel 1a which comprises the gate main body 1.

In the gate panel 1a, the solar cell panel 7 is provided with the light receiving surface exposed in the middle of the surface of the gate panel 1a. The light receiving surface of the solar cell panel 7 is a smooth surface, and it can be made uncomfortable by making it part of the surface design of the gate panel 1a.

Further, a mail box 4 is provided on the back side of the gate panel 1a, and a mailing port 4a of the mail box 4 is formed above the solar cell panel 7 on the surface of the gate panel 1a. A battery 6 is built in a part of the mail box 4. The battery 6 is connected and wired from the solar cell panel 7 through the interior of the gate panel 1a so that the electromotive force generated in the solar cell panel 7 can be charged. Since the battery 6 is housed in the mail box 4, it is hidden from the outside and the existence of the battery 6 cannot be seen visually.

Further, the door panel 1a is provided with an intercom slave unit 2, an electric lock 3, and a foot lamp 8 as electric devices, respectively, and these have a battery 6 as shown in FIG.
Is connected and wired through the gate panel 1a to supply power.

The intercom subunit 2 is provided adjacent to the side of the box 4a on the surface of the solar cell panel 7.

The electric lock 3 comprises a control circuit portion 3a, an operation button portion 3b and a lock portion 3c. The control circuit unit 3 a is built in the mail box 4 like the battery 6, and is connected and wired to the battery 6. The operation button portion 3b is provided on the upper end of the surface of the assembling edge portion of the solar cell panel 7, and is connected and wired to the control circuit portion 3a. The lock portion 3c is built in the middle of the summarizing edge portion of the gate panel 1a where the handle 10 is provided, and is connected and wired to the control circuit portion 3a.
