  • a plurality of vehicular parking stall barrier apparatuses generally designated 10 are shown as provided for controlling the use of a plurality of parking spaces 11 as by vehicles 12, such as automobiles.
  • Each apparatus 10 is identical and, thus, the description thereof will be limited to one such apparatus.
  • apparatus 10 is arranged to permit the parking in space 11 only by an authorized user.
  • the barrier apparatus 10 includes a barrier member 13 which is selectively disposed in a stall blocking position as shown in FIG. 1A, and a retracted position as shown in FIG. 1C.
  • the barrier is normally in the stall blocking position of FIG. 1A so that unauthorized use of the parking space 11 is prevented.

  • a coin-controlled device l7a may be provided for effecting operation of apparatus 10. This control of the receiver 17 is effected by means of a switch 19 which is operated by FIGS. 18 and 3.
  • Reception of the remote control radio frequency signal by receiver 17 effects electrical operation of a solenoid 20 to move a latching member 21 away from locking association with a connector 22 attached to the barrier member 13 to permit the connector to move along a bottom channel 23 of the device to a substantially horizontal position as a result of a downward force on the barrier member 13 as by the weight of the car thereon.
  • the barrier member 13 is carried on a downwardly opening support channel 24 which is pivotally mounted to the upwardly opening bottom channel 23 by means of a pivot pin 25 which is urged upwardly by a coil spring 26 between the pivot pin 25 and web of channel 23.
  • the pin 25 is received in a vertically elongated slot 27 in channel 23 to permit suitable downward movement against the action of spring 26 to effect operation of switch 19 through an operator 19a connected thereto.
  • the movement of latching member 21 by solenoid 20 permits the user to drive the vehicle 12 forwardly into stall 11 with the weight of the car bringing the barrier to the retracted position of FIGS. 1C and 2.
  • the user need send the operating signal only to release the latch member 21 and, thus when the barrier is in the retracted position of FIG. 2, solenoid 20 is no longer energized as a result of the discontinuation of the transmission of the operating signal to receiver 17, and a roller 28 carried on the lower end of the connector 22 may be locked in a suitable downwardly opening recess 29 in the latch member 21 against the action of a coil spring 30 tending to urge the roller 28 to the left as seen in FIG. 2 against a stop shoulder 31 defined by the front edge of the recess 29.
  • the tension of spring 30 may be controlled by suitable threaded mounting device 32 carried on the channel 32 and connected to the opposite end of the spring.

  • solenoid 20 When it is desired to move the vehicle, it is backed out until the front wheels 14 again rest on the leading portion 15 of the barrier 13 thereby again closing switch 19 and permitting the user to again actuate the solenoid 20 by means of the transmitter 16.
  • Operation of solenoid 20 effects a movement of the latch member 21 pivotally about a pivot 33 on channel 23 so as to swing the latch member away from the roller 28 as shown in broken lines in FIG. 3, and thereby permit spring 30 to urge the lower end of the connector 22 along the channel 23.
  • the upper end of the connector 22 is connected to the channel 24 by a suitable pivot 34 and, thus, the action of spring 30 causes a swinging of the barrier 13 about the axis of pivot 25 to the-upper stall blocking position of FIGS. 1A and 3.
  • the angularity of the inclined arrangement of the barrier 13 may be adjusted by disposing pin 34 in any one of a plurality of holes 35 spaced longitudinally in channel 24. In this position, downward movement of the barrier 13 is prevented by the abutment of the connector 22 with the end 36 of the latch member 21 which is now restored to the horizontal position by the de-energization of solenoid 20.
  • the extension of coil spring 30 is adjusted by device 32 so that the coil spring is substantially relaxed in the stall blocking arrangement of the apparatus, as shown in FIG. 3, with the weight of the barrier 13 and channel 24 effectively urging the lower connector end against the latching member end 36.
  • the barrier is again disposed in the stall blocking position of FIGS. 1A preventing unauthorized use of the parking space.
  • solenoid 20 is effected electrically by means of any suitable power supply which may include conventional -v. AC power supplies.
  • the power supply comprises a battery 37 which may be mounted in control post 18. As the entire system is deenergized as long as switch 19 is open, there is no drain on the battery 37 during periods of nonuse of the apparatus. It is only when the user's vehicle wheels bear down on the front end 15 of the barrier that the receiver 17 and solenoid 20 may be connected to the battery for operation thereof. Upon release of the latching means of the apparatus, the user drives the vehicle fully into the parking space, once again removing the downward force on the barrier portion 15 and thereby disconnecting the electrical apparatus from the battery 37.
  • the apparatus 10 requires not only the use of a remote control transmitter and receiver, but also concurrently positioning of the users vehicle wheels on the front portion only of the barrier 13 to effect the desired release of the barrier to either the retracted or stall blocking positions.
  • the weight of the vehicle causes the released barrier 13 to be moved down to the retracted position in which position it is latched, or locked, as the solenoid is de-energized at that time.
  • the coil spring 30 is utilized.
  • the only electrical apparatus needed to control the operation of the apparatus is a low power radio receiver and a relatively low power latch control solenoid. As a result, the battery may have long life between need for recharging.

  • the barrier may have a downturned leading apron 39 and a downturned trailing apron 40 for guiding the vehicle wheels upwardly onto the midportion 41 of the barrier in driving the vehicle thereover.
  • the downturned channel 24 nests over the upturned channel 23 to effectively enclose the apparatus carried on channel 23 and prevent manual operation of the latch 21.
  • the downturned aprons 39 and 40 and flexible cover 51 effectively prevent access to the opposite ends of the channels.

Further, when the barrier is in the retracted position of FIG.
  • the pivot of the members 147 in the counterclockwise direction causes them to latch over the holding element 150 and thereby prevent release of the barrier from the retracted position until such time as the solenoid 120 is energized to release the barrier for pivotal movement to the stall blocking position by the action of spring 144 as shown in FIG. 6.
  • the cooperating pivot element 147 and holding member 150 effectively define a. holding means which is responsive to the operation of the signal receiver 117 which may be disposed within apparatus 110 for selectively releasably retaining the barrier in either of the stall blocking or retracted positions.
