Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of gate equipment, in particular to a swing arm and a gate composed of the swing arm. Background Art

[0002] As the main means of transportation in urban areas, buses have a large flow of people. If the bus is only monitored by the driver and swiped by card, there will be a lot of trouble, which is not conducive to management, and it is easy to escape or leak coins, affecting social atmosphere. At the same time, the phenomenon of rushing to grab seats on the bus will also lead to many dangerous things. Therefore, a gate is installed in the passenger passage area at the boarding door of the bus. After the passenger pays, the swing arm of the gate will open the passenger passage area. The passenger passage area only allows one passenger to pass through at a time. The device that pays first and then enters the bus effectively avoids the occurrence of coin escape and leakage, which is more conducive to the management of drivers and bus companies. At the same time, it avoids the problem of rushing, reduces the occurrence of stampede accidents, and improves the riding experience. However, in some peak hours and when there are many people, some passengers force their way in when the swing arm does not open the passenger passage area, and hit the swing arm, which will cause accidental collision injuries to the passengers. At the same time, there is a risk of pinching passengers when the swing arm opens or closes the passenger passage area. Utility Model Content

[0027] Example

[0028] A swing arm includes a swing arm body installed on a gate for controlling the passage of passengers. The swing arm body includes a connecting portion 22 and a flexible portion 21 for buffering passenger collisions. One end of the connecting portion 22 is connected to the flexible portion 21, and the other end is connected to a driving device on the gate.

[0029] In this embodiment, Figure 1 and Figure 5 As shown, the connecting portion 22 is responsible for connecting the flexible portion 21 with the driving device on the gate. The function of the flexible portion 21 is to buffer the collision between the passenger and the swing arm 2 and reduce the risk of injury caused by accidental collision. There is no risk of pinching the passenger when the swing arm 2 opens or closes the passenger passage area 3. The flexible portion 21 can also provide a certain damping effect, so that the swing arm 2 can stop slowly when it contacts the passenger to avoid sudden reaction force. The existence of the flexible portion 21 greatly reduces the risk of passengers being injured due to accidental collision with the swing arm 2, reflecting the thoughtful consideration for passenger safety. Even if a slight collision occurs, the flexible portion 21 can provide a comfortable touch and reduce the discomfort of the passenger, thereby improving the overall user experience. Since the flexible portion 21 can absorb part of the impact energy, the stress directly acting on the connecting portion 22 and the driving device is reduced, which helps to extend the service life of the entire swing arm 2 system.

[0030] Furthermore, the flexible portion 21 includes an elastic body 2103 , a filling body 2102 , and a protective cover 2101 . The elastic body 2103 is connected to one end of the connecting portion 22 . The filling body 2102 is wrapped on the elastic body 2103 , and the protective cover 2101 is wrapped on the surface of the filling body 2102 .

[0031] Specifically, Figure 1 As shown, the elastomer 2103 is the core layer of the flexible part 21, which is responsible for deforming when impacted to absorb energy, thereby playing a buffering role. One end of the elastomer 2103 is connected to the connecting part 22 to ensure that the swing arm 2 can transmit force and remain stable during movement. The filler 2102 is wrapped around the outside of the elastomer 2103, mainly to enhance the buffering effect and support. The filler 2102 can increase the thickness and volume of the flexible part 21, so that it can better disperse and absorb impact energy. The protective cover 2101 is located at the outermost layer, mainly to protect the internal elastomer 2103 and the filler 2102. The protective cover 2101 can prevent external objects from directly scratching, wearing or damaging the flexible part 21, and can also provide certain waterproof and dustproof functions. The protective cover 2101 is tightly wrapped around the surface of the filling body 2102, forming a stable structural whole with the internal layers. Through the multi-layer design of the elastomer 2103, the filling body 2102 and the protective cover 2101, the flexible part 21 can more effectively absorb and disperse the impact energy, thereby reducing the risk of injury when the passenger collides with the swing arm 2. The existence of the protective cover 2101 can protect the internal layers from erosion and damage from the external environment, and extend the service life of the flexible part 21. The multi-layer structure design enables the flexible part 21 to maintain a certain stability and integrity when impacted, reducing the safety risks caused by material damage. The protective cover 2101 not only has a protective function, but can also be designed into different colors and patterns according to needs to enhance the overall aesthetics of the gate.

[0032] Furthermore, the elastic body 2103 is a strip-shaped spring, one end of the spring is connected to the connecting portion 22, and the filling body 2102 completely wraps the spring.

[0033] Specifically, Figure 2As shown, the spring, as an elastic body 2103, can be deformed when subjected to external force, and quickly return to its original state after the external force disappears. This characteristic enables the flexible portion 21 to quickly absorb the impact energy when the passenger collides with the swing arm 2, reducing the impact force on the passenger. The resilience of the spring ensures that the flexible portion 21 can quickly return to its original state after being impacted, ready to deal with the next impact. This fast response capability is crucial for the gate swing arm 2, because it needs to be frequently opened and closed to control the passage of passengers. The filling body 2102 completely wraps the spring, which not only protects the spring, but also provides additional support and buffering effects. The filling body 2102 can prevent the spring from being excessively deformed or damaged when it is impacted, while dispersing and absorbing part of the impact energy. The material of the filling body 2102 itself also has certain buffering properties, and combined with the spring, it can further enhance the buffering effect of the flexible portion 21. The high elasticity and resilience of the spring enable the flexible part 21 to quickly absorb and release impact energy, reducing the risk of passenger injury; the wrapping and protection of the spring by the filling body 2102 extends the service life of the flexible part 21 and reduces the maintenance and replacement costs caused by material damage; the multi-layer structure design enables the flexible part 21 to remain relatively stable when impacted and is not prone to displacement or falling off; the strip-shaped spring design can adjust the length and diameter as needed to meet the usage requirements in different scenarios.

[0034] Furthermore, the filling body 2102 is made of polyurethane foam, which is filled inside and outside the spring to form a solid body, and a spiral connection is formed between the filling body 2102 and the spring.

[0035] Specifically, the polyurethane foam has a lower density and a higher strength, which can reduce the overall weight while ensuring structural stability. The polyurethane foam has good compressibility and resilience, and can quickly absorb energy and slowly release it when impacted, thereby playing a good buffering role. The polyurethane foam surface is wear-resistant, and can resist a certain degree of scratching and wear, extending the service life of the flexible portion 21. The polyurethane foam is easy to be molded by a mold, and can be made into various shapes and sizes as needed to adapt to different application scenarios. Since the filler 2102 wraps the spring, the spring is completely embedded in the filler 2102, and the spring is a spiral structure, similar to the threaded connection method, so that the spiral connection between the filler 2102 and the spring can ensure the close combination between the two, preventing relative sliding or separation during use. This connection method can also enhance the overall structural stability of the flexible portion 21, so that it can withstand greater impact force. The design of the spiral connection allows the filler 2102 to be more evenly distributed around the spring, so that it can absorb and disperse energy more comprehensively when impacted. The combination of polyurethane foam and spring enables the flexible part 21 to quickly absorb and disperse energy when impacted, reducing the risk of passenger injury; the spiral connection design enhances the overall structural stability of the flexible part 21, enabling it to maintain stable performance in various environments; the wear-resistant properties of the polyurethane foam and its close combination with the spring enable the flexible part 21 to have a longer service life.

[0036] Furthermore, one end of the connecting portion 22 is inserted into the spring, and a spiral groove adapted to the spring is provided on the connecting portion 22 . One end of the spring is located in the spiral groove and fixedly connected to the connecting portion 22 .

[0037] Specifically, Figure 2 As shown, the spiral groove (not shown) on the connecting portion 22 is adapted to the spiral shape of the spring, so that one end of the spring can be smoothly embedded therein. The parameters such as the depth, width and pitch of the spiral groove need to match the specific size of the spring to ensure a close fit between the two. Once one end of the spring is in the spiral groove, the spring and the connecting portion 22 can be firmly connected together by welding, riveting or other mechanical fixing methods. This fixing method should be able to withstand the various forces and torques generated by the swing arm 2 during movement to ensure that the connection between the connecting portion 22 and the spring will not loosen or break. The matching design of the spiral groove and the spring forms a stable mechanical connection between the connecting portion 22 and the spring, which can effectively prevent relative sliding or separation during use. The stable connection structure can ensure that the swing arm 2 maintains the integrity of the overall structure when subjected to impact or external force, thereby reducing the safety risks caused by the detachment or breakage of components.

[0038] Furthermore, one end of the filling body 2102 away from the connecting portion 22 is hemispherical, and the protective cover 2101 is adaptively sleeved on the filling body 2102 and completely covers the filling body 2102 , and the protective cover 2101 and the filling body 2102 are bonded together.

[0039] Specifically, Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, compared with a flat surface or sharp edges, the hemispherical design is smoother, reducing the sharp feeling when in contact with passengers and improving the comfort of passengers. The hemispherical design also has a certain aesthetic value and can improve the overall appearance of the gate swing arm 2. The protective cover 2101 completely covers the filling body 2102, providing an additional protective layer for the flexible part 21, which can prevent external objects from directly scratching, wearing or damaging the filling body 2102, and prolonging the service life of the flexible part 21. The protective cover 2101 and the filling body 2102 are tightly combined by bonding to ensure a stable connection between the two and prevent them from falling off or shifting during use. An adhesive compatible with the materials of the filling body 2102 and the protective cover 2101 should be selected to ensure the firmness and durability of the bonding.

[0040] Furthermore, the connecting portion 22 is made of stainless steel, and a waist-shaped hole 6 is provided on the side of the connecting portion 22 .

[0041] Specifically, stainless steel has high tensile strength and yield strength, and can withstand various forces and torques generated by the swing arm 2 during movement, ensuring the stability and reliability of the connection part 22. Stainless steel has good resistance to various corrosive media (such as water, air, chemicals, etc.), and can extend the service life of the connection part 22 and reduce damage and replacement caused by corrosion. Stainless steel has a silvery-white metallic luster and a beautiful appearance, which can enhance the overall visual effect of the gate swing arm 2. The waist-shaped hole 6 set on the side of the connection part 22 can reduce the weight of the connection part 22 and save materials.

[0042] Furthermore, the connecting portion 22 is provided with an assembly hole 7 located on the right side of the waist-shaped hole 6 for connecting with the output end of the driving device on the gate, one side of the assembly hole 7 is a straight surface 701, and a locking hole 8 for installing a screw is provided on the right side of the assembly hole 7.

[0043] Specifically, Figure 1As shown, the assembly hole 7 is located on the right side of the waist-shaped hole 6. The selection of its position should ensure accurate docking with the output end of the drive device on the gate. The shape of the assembly hole 7 is usually circular or polygonal to adapt to the connection form of different output ends of the drive device. In this embodiment, it is circular, but one side of the assembly hole 7 is designed as a straight surface 701 to ensure that the output end of the drive device will not rotate relative to the connection part 22 after being connected to the connection part 22. The locking hole 8 is located on the right side of the assembly hole 7. Its main function is to install the screw. The connection part 22 is firmly connected to the output end of the drive device through the tightening action of the screw. The design of the locking hole 8 should facilitate the installation and removal of the screw, and ensure that the screw can be evenly stressed during the tightening process to avoid loosening or slipping.

[0044] Furthermore, a transverse groove 9 is provided in the middle of one end of the connecting portion 22 away from the flexible portion 21 . The transverse groove 9 extends along the length direction of the connecting portion 22 and is not connected to the waist-shaped hole 6 . The transverse groove 9 penetrates the connecting portion 22 along the width direction of the connecting portion 22 .

[0045] Specifically, Figure 2 As shown, the width of the transverse groove 9 is relatively small, and the right side part of the connecting part 22 is divided into an upper and a lower part to form a splint-like structure. After the output end of the driving device is assembled with the assembly hole 7, a screw is installed in the locking hole 8, and the screw is rotated to lock the output end of the driving device. The setting of the transverse groove 9 can realize the adjustment of the locking degree between the connecting part 22 and the output end of the driving device.

[0046] like Figure 5 As shown, a gate includes a gate body 1 installed in the passenger passage area 3 at the boarding door of a bus. The passenger passage area 3 only allows one passenger to pass at a time. The gate body 1 includes a shell 5 and a driving device (not marked in the figure) arranged inside the shell 5. The shell 5 is fixedly installed on the columns 4 on both sides of the passenger passage area 3. The driving device is a reciprocating motor. The output end of the reciprocating motor is connected to the assembly hole 7 of the swing arm 2, and the output end is locked with the swing arm 2 by a screw in the locking hole 8. After the passenger pays, the driving device controls the swing arm 2 to move and open or close the passenger passage area 3 at the boarding door.

[0047] The above is only a preferred embodiment of the utility model and does not limit the utility model in any form. According to the technical essence of the utility model, within the spirit and principles of the utility model, any simple modification, equivalent replacement and improvement made to the above embodiment still falls within the protection scope of the technical solution of the utility model.
