AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

The response speed of existing barrier gates affects vehicle passage speed, especially in ETC systems, where excessively long response times force vehicles to slow down.

Method used

The gate arm is controlled by a dual-drive system, which drives the gate arm to swing up and down in the vertical and horizontal directions respectively, so that the gate arm moves in an arc shape forward and upward, thereby shortening the vehicle passage time.

Benefits of technology

Vehicles do not need to slow down when passing through, which increases the passage speed and reduces the impact of the barrier gate's response on vehicle passage.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to a barrier gate, and more particularly to a dual-drive high-speed barrier gate that can quickly release traffic without affecting normal vehicle passage. Background Technology

[0002] With the popularization and improvement of internet technology, people have effectively integrated advanced information technology, communication technology, sensing technology, control technology, and computer technology into the highway toll system, greatly improving toll collection and service efficiency. In particular, the application of the ETC system, which uses DSRC (Short Range Cordless Communication) technology, on highways has significantly alleviated congestion caused by highway toll collection. The ETC system, also known as a non-stop toll collection system, installs microwave card readers at highway entrances and exits, and an electronic tag card is installed on the windshield of the vehicle. The electronic tag card is linked to the owner's bank card. When a vehicle enters the inductive loop detectors buried in the highway entrance and exit lanes, the microwave card reader is triggered to read the information on the electronic tag card inside the vehicle, thereby reading the vehicle information and payment information. The built-in program automatically completes the payment process and opens the lane gate, thus enabling non-stop entry and exit from the highway. Although the ETC electronic toll collection system has improved vehicle traffic efficiency to some extent, the current system still has limitations. After the microwave card reader reads the information from the electronic tag card in the vehicle and sends it to the barrier gate, even the fastest existing barrier gate takes 0.3 seconds to open and allow the vehicle to pass. The distance between the location where the microwave card reader is installed and the location where the barrier gate is installed is not far. Therefore, vehicles must slow down when passing between the two. The recognition and processing time of the existing ETC system is already sufficient for vehicles to pass quickly, but the reaction speed of the existing barrier gate seriously affects the speed at which vehicles can pass. Summary of the Invention

[0003] To address the aforementioned problems, the present invention aims to provide a dual-drive high-speed gate that can quickly release traffic without affecting normal vehicle passage.

[0004] The present invention is achieved through the following technical measures: a dual-drive high-speed gate includes a housing, on which a first drive device is provided, which drives the gate arm to swing vertically up and down; the housing is also provided with a second drive device, which drives the gate arm to swing along the vehicle travel direction.

[0005] In a preferred embodiment, the chassis is equipped with a main reduction gearbox that rotates horizontally. The main reduction gearbox is driven to rotate horizontally by a second drive device fixed to the chassis. The main reduction gearbox includes a main motor, which drives the swing arm shaft to rotate through a main reduction mechanism, thereby causing the gate arm to swing up and down vertically.

[0006] In a preferred embodiment, an upper support frame is fixed to the upper end of the chassis, and a lower support frame is fixed to the middle or lower end of the chassis. The upper and lower ends of the main gearbox are rotatably connected between the upper support frame and the lower support frame through bearings, respectively. A swing motor is fixed on the lower support frame, and the swing motor drives the main gearbox to rotate horizontally through a swing reducer.

[0007] In a preferred embodiment, an upper support frame is fixed to the upper end of the chassis, and an upper bearing seat is provided on the upper support frame. An upper bearing is fitted into the upper bearing seat. An upper rotating shaft extends upward from the upper end of the main gearbox and is fitted into the inner hole of the upper bearing. A lower support frame is fixed to the lower end of the chassis, and a lower bearing seat is provided on the lower support frame. A lower bearing is fitted into the lower bearing seat. A lower rotating shaft extends downward from the lower end of the main gearbox and is fitted into the inner hole of the lower bearing.

[0008] As a preferred embodiment, a swing motor is fixed on the lower support frame, and a swing reducer is drivenly connected to the swing motor. The drive shaft of the swing reducer is fixed to the lower end of the main reduction gearbox.

[0009] As a preferred embodiment, a swing motor is fixed horizontally in the chassis, and an annular bevel gear is fixed on the main gearbox. A bevel gear is fixed on the drive shaft of the swing motor. The bevel gear meshes with the annular bevel gear for transmission. The swing motor drives the bevel gear to rotate on the annular bevel gear, thereby driving the main gearbox to rotate horizontally.

[0010] In a preferred embodiment, the chassis is equipped with a main reduction gearbox that rotates horizontally. The main reduction gearbox is driven to rotate horizontally by a second drive device fixed on the main reduction gearbox. The main reduction gearbox includes a main motor, which drives the swing arm shaft to rotate through the main reduction mechanism, thereby causing the gate arm to swing up and down vertically.

[0011] In a preferred embodiment, an upper support frame is fixed to the upper end of the chassis, and a lower support frame is fixed to the middle or lower end of the chassis. The upper and lower ends of the main reduction gearbox are rotatably connected between the upper support frame and the lower support frame via bearings, respectively. An annular bevel gear is also fixed to the chassis. A swing motor is fixed to the main reduction gearbox in the horizontal direction. A bevel gear is fixed to the drive shaft of the swing motor. The bevel gear meshes with the annular bevel gear for transmission. The swing motor drives the bevel gear to rotate on the annular bevel gear, thereby driving the main reduction gearbox to rotate horizontally.

[0012] In a preferred embodiment, an upper support frame is fixed to the upper end of the chassis, and an upper bearing seat is provided on the upper support frame. An upper bearing is fitted into the upper bearing seat. An upper rotating shaft extends upward from the upper end of the main gearbox and is fitted into the inner hole of the upper bearing. A lower support frame is fixed to the lower end of the chassis, and a lower bearing seat is provided on the lower support frame. A lower bearing is fitted into the lower bearing seat.

A swing motor is fixed horizontally in the middle of the main gearbox, and a bevel gear is fixed on the drive shaft of the swing motor. The bevel gear meshes with the ring bevel teeth for transmission.

[0014] This invention utilizes a first driving device to drive the gate arm to swing up and down, while a second driving device simultaneously drives the gate arm to swing along the vehicle's direction of travel. This results in the gate arm swinging in an arc shape forward and upward. When a vehicle approaches, because the gate arm moves upward and forward, the time it takes for the gate arm to swing to a point where the vehicle can pass is only about half that of a conventional barrier gate. This allows vehicles to pass normally without needing to slow down. Whether applied to highways or other parking lanes, its reaction speed will not affect the vehicle's passage speed. When raising the gate arm, the second driving device drives the first driving device to rotate forward along the vehicle's direction of travel while the gate arm swings upward. When lowering the gate arm, the second driving device drives the first driving device to rotate in the opposite direction of the vehicle's direction of travel while the gate arm swings downward.
