[0029] Example

[0030] A gate for a bus includes a gate body 1 installed in a passenger passage area 3 at the boarding door of the bus. The passenger passage area 3 only allows one passenger to pass through at a time. The gate body 1 includes a shell 6, a driving device arranged inside the shell 6, and a swing arm 2 arranged at the output end of the driving device. 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.

[0031] In this embodiment, Figure 1 As shown, when a passenger is riding a bus, after the door of the bus boarding door is opened, the initial state of the gate body 1 is to close the passenger passage area 3. When the passenger pays, the driving device will drive the swing arm 2 to move and open the passage area. At this time, the paid passenger can enter the bus through the passenger passage area 3. The passenger passage area 3 only allows one passenger to pass through at a time. By paying first and then entering the bus, the occurrence of coin evasion and coin leakage is effectively avoided, which is more conducive to the management of drivers and bus companies, and at the same time avoids the problem of crowding, reduces the occurrence of stampede accidents, and improves the riding experience.

[0032] It should be noted that the payment method for passengers is coin or card swiping, which are currently common on buses, or it can be a more mainstream payment method such as mobile phone payment. In this embodiment, the more commonly used coin or card payment method is still adopted. The driving device is electrically connected to the control board in the card swiping device on the bus. When the passenger swipes the card, the card swiping device controls the driving device of the gate machine to move, and the driving device drives the swing arm 2 to move and open the passenger passage area 3, so that the paid passenger can get on the bus. After the passenger in front passes, the driving device will drive the swing arm 2 to reset and close the passenger passage area 3. Its closing time interval is similar to that of the current subway passage gate machine, and it will not open until the next passenger swipes the card. Specifically, the control board can automatically send a closing signal to the reciprocating motor 10 according to a preset time delay or a sensor signal (such as an infrared sensor detects that no one passes), so that the swing arm 2 resets and closes the passenger passage area 3. For passengers who ride the bus for free and passengers who pay coins, the driver can press a manual switch button to control the driving device to manually control the opening or closing of the passenger passage area 3.

[0033] Furthermore, the driving device is a reciprocating motor 10, the output end of the reciprocating motor 10 is connected to one end of the swing arm 2, and the reciprocating motor 10 drives the swing arm 2 to rotate in the vertical plane and controls the opening or closing of the passenger passage area 3.

[0034] Specifically, the reciprocating motor 10 can accurately control the rotation angle and speed of the swing arm 2 to ensure the stability and safety of the gate when opening and closing. Since the reciprocating motor 10 has a faster start and stop response time, it can quickly respond to the passenger's payment signal to achieve rapid opening and closing of the gate. The reciprocating motor 10 has a relatively simple structure and can withstand higher loads and frequent start and stop operations after optimized design, and has higher durability and reliability.

[0035] Furthermore, the reciprocating motor 10 drives the swing arm 2 to rotate downward to open the passenger passage area 3, and the reciprocating motor 10 drives the swing arm 2 to rotate upward to a horizontal position to close the passenger passage area 3.

[0036] Specifically, such as Figure 6As shown, when no opening signal is received, the swing arm 2 is typically in a horizontal or near-horizontal position to close the passenger passage area 3. Once an opening signal is received (e.g., a passenger successfully pays), the reciprocating motor 10 begins to operate, driving the swing arm 2 to rotate downward about its connection point with the reciprocating motor 10. As the swing arm 2 rotates, it gradually leaves its horizontal position, opening up sufficient passage space for the passenger. After the passenger passes through, the control panel sends a closing signal to the reciprocating motor 10 based on preset conditions (such as time delay, sensor signal, etc.), and the motor then reverses, driving the swing arm 2 to rotate upward and return to the horizontal position. In the horizontal position, the swing arm 2 completely blocks the passenger passage area 3, ensuring that no unauthorized passengers can pass through.

[0037] Furthermore, the reciprocating motor 10 drives the swing arm 2 to rotate upward to open the passenger passage area 3, and the reciprocating motor 10 drives the swing arm 2 to rotate downward to a horizontal position to close the passenger passage area 3.

[0038] Specifically, such as Figure 7 As shown, this solution is another swinging mode of the swing arm 2. Initially, the swing arm 2 is in a horizontal position, blocking the passenger passage area 3. When the passenger completes payment or other door opening conditions are met, the reciprocating motor 10 starts working, driving the swing arm 2 to rotate upward around its fixed point. As the swing arm 2 rises, it gradually leaves the horizontal position, opening a passage for the passenger, thereby opening the passenger passage area 3. Closed state: After the passenger passes through the gate, the system will send a closing signal to the reciprocating motor 10 according to the preset logic (such as time delay, sensor detection, etc.). After receiving the signal, the motor drives the swing arm 2 to rotate downward until the swing arm 2 returns to the horizontal position. At this time, the swing arm 2 completely blocks the passenger passage area 3, achieving a closed state.

[0039] Furthermore, two pillars 4 are provided inside the bus on both sides of the boarding door. The two pillars 4 are arranged vertically and parallel to each other. The passenger passage area 3 is formed between the two pillars 4. A gate body 1 is provided on each of the two pillars 4, and the gate body 1 is installed on the pillar 4.

[0040] Specifically, such as Figure 1As shown, the column 4 should be made of a strong and durable material, such as stainless steel or high-strength aluminum alloy, to ensure that it can withstand the vibration and impact of the vehicle operation. The two columns 4 should be ensured to be set vertically and in parallel to maintain the stability and safety of the passenger passage area 3. The spacing between the columns 4 should be reasonably designed according to the size of the bus door and the passenger flow, so as to ensure that passengers can pass smoothly and avoid excessive space waste. The gate body 1 is firmly installed on the column 4. During the installation process, attention should be paid to maintaining the horizontality and verticality of the gate body 1 to ensure its normal operation and aesthetics. The gate body 1 should be installed at a suitable height and position on the column 4 to facilitate passenger operation and maintenance personnel to open and close: As mentioned above, the gate body 1 is driven by the reciprocating motor 10 to swing The arm 2 rotates in the vertical plane to control the opening and closing of the passenger passage area 3. When the passenger completes the payment or other door opening conditions are met, the gate body 1 receives the signal and drives the swing arm 2 to rotate upward (or downward, depending on the design) to open the passenger passage area 3; when the passenger passes or the system detects the closing condition, the swing arm 2 rotates downward (or upward) to a horizontal position to close the passenger passage area 3. The gate bodies 1 are installed on both columns 4, and linkage control should be implemented between them, that is, when one gate body 1 receives an opening signal, the other gate body 1 should also open at the same time; similarly, when one gate body 1 receives a closing signal, the other gate body 1 should also close at the same time, so as to ensure the continuity and consistency of the passenger passage area 3.

[0041] Furthermore, the housing 6 includes an upper shell 601, a lower shell 603 and an intermediate shell 602 located between the upper shell 601 and the lower shell 603. The driving device is installed in the intermediate shell 602. The upper end and the lower end of the intermediate shell 602 are respectively connected to the upper shell 601 and the lower shell 603 by screws 9. The upper shell 601, the intermediate shell 602 and the lower shell 603 are all sleeved on the column 4.

[0042] Specifically, such as Figure 2 As shown, the upper shell 601 is located on the top of the housing 6 and is usually used to install an indicator light or a light strip 13 to show the current status of the gate body 1 to passengers (such as open, closed, fault, etc.). The upper shell 601 is connected to the middle shell 602 by screws 9 or other fasteners to ensure the stability and sealing of the structure. Figure 5As shown, a driving device (such as a reciprocating motor 10) is installed inside the middle shell 602. The upper and lower ends of the middle shell 602 are respectively connected to the upper shell 601 and the lower shell 603 to form a complete enclosed space. The lower shell 603 is located at the bottom of the outer shell 6. It is usually simpler and is mainly used to support the entire outer shell 6 structure and connect to the column 4. The design of the lower shell 603 should ensure that it is tightly and firmly connected to the column 4 to prevent the outer shell 6 from shaking or falling off during the operation of the vehicle. The upper shell 601, the middle shell 602 and the lower shell 603 are all installed on the column 4 by means of a sleeve connection. This design enables the outer shell 6 to fit tightly to the surface of the column 4, reducing the gap and looseness caused by improper installation. At the same time, the sleeve connection method also facilitates the disassembly and replacement of the outer shell 6 when needed. In addition to the sleeve connection, appropriate fixing measures (such as screws 9, snaps, etc.) should also be adopted between the outer shell 6 and the column 4 for reinforcement. These fixing measures can ensure the stability and safety of the outer shell 6 during vehicle driving and prevent it from falling off or being damaged due to external forces.

[0043] Furthermore, two first limit rods 11 and second limit rods 12 are provided on the side of the intermediate shell 602 to limit the rotation range of the swing arm 2. The first limit rod 11 is located above the swing arm 2, and the second limit rod 12 is located below the swing arm 2. When the swing arm 2 swings to the horizontal, it contacts the bottom surface of the first limit rod 11. When the swing arm 2 swings downward from the horizontal to contact the second limit rod 12, the swing angle of the swing arm 2 is 95°.

[0044] Specifically, the first limiting rod 11 is located above the swing arm 2. When the swing arm 2 rotates from the open state to the closed state, the top of the swing arm 2 will first contact the bottom surface of the first limiting rod 11. This contact point indicates that the swing arm 2 has rotated to the horizontal position. The main function of the first limiting rod 11 is to prevent the swing arm 2 from continuing to rotate upward beyond a predetermined position, thereby ensuring the accurate closure of the passenger passage area 3; the second limiting rod 12 is located below the swing arm 2. When the swing arm 2 rotates from the closed state to the open state, the bottom of the swing arm 2 will contact the second limiting rod 12. This contact point indicates that the swing arm 2 has rotated downward by a sufficient angle to allow passengers to pass. Figure 6 As shown, when the swing arm 2 contacts the second limit rod 12, its swing angle is 95°. In the open state, the swing arm 2 is not completely perpendicular to the ground, but has a certain inclination angle. This design is to consider the convenience of passengers' passage and avoid interference.

[0045] Furthermore, a protective shell 7 is provided on the side of the intermediate housing 602 , and the protective shell 7 covers the first limiting rod 11 , the second limiting rod 12 and the connection position between the swing arm 2 and the reciprocating motor 10 .

[0046] Specifically, such as Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, the protective shell 7 can effectively prevent passengers or maintenance personnel from accidentally touching the limit rod or connection position, reducing the occurrence of accidents. The design of the protective shell 7 is usually coordinated with the overall appearance of the gate system, which can enhance the overall aesthetics of the equipment. It can hide the complex internal mechanical structure, making the gate system look more neat and professional.

[0047] Furthermore, a locking collar 5 is provided on the top of the upper shell 601 and the bottom of the lower shell 603 . The locking collar 5 is sleeved on the column 4 , and the locking collar 5 and the column 4 are fastened by a locking screw 8 .

[0048] Furthermore, a vertical notch 14 is formed in the axial direction on the locking collar 5 .

[0049] Specifically, such as Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the locking collar 5 is sleeved on the column 4 and is fastened to the column 4 by the locking screw 8. This connection method can effectively prevent the shell 6 from shaking or falling off during the operation of the vehicle, ensuring the stable operation of the gate system. The vertical notch 14 can provide the necessary elastic deformation space. By adjusting the tightness of the locking screw 8, the close fit between the locking collar 5 and the column 4 can be ensured, and the gate body 1 can be installed more firmly.

[0050] The working principle of the utility model is as follows: when a passenger takes a bus, after the door of the bus boarding door is opened, the initial state of the gate body 1 is to close the passenger passage area 3. At this time, the swing arms 2 on the two gate bodies 1 are in a horizontal relative state and are basically located in the same straight line. When the passenger swipes the card on the card swiping device to pay, the control board inside the card swiping device will send a start signal to the reciprocating motor 10, such as Figure 6 As shown, the two reciprocating motors 10 will drive the corresponding swing arms 2 to rotate downward 95° synchronously, opening the passenger passage area 3. At this time, the passengers who have paid can enter the bus through the passenger passage area 3. When the passengers pass, the control panel will send a closing signal to the reciprocating motor 10 according to preset conditions (such as time delay, sensor signal, etc.), and the motor will then rotate in the opposite direction, driving the swing arm 2 to rotate upward and return to the horizontal position. In the horizontal position, the swing arm 2 completely blocks the passenger passage area 3. If the passenger pays by coin or is a free person, the driver needs to manually press the button to control the action of the reciprocating motor 10; the passenger passage area 3 of this scheme only allows one passenger to pass through at a time. By paying first and then entering the bus, the occurrence of coin evasion and coin leakage is effectively avoided, which is more conducive to the management of drivers and bus companies, while avoiding the problem of crowding, reducing the occurrence of stampede accidents, and improving the riding experience.

[0051] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and does not constitute any form of limitation to the present invention. Based on the technical essence of the present invention and within the spirit and principles of the present invention, any simple modification, equivalent replacement and improvement of the above embodiment shall still fall within the scope of protection of the technical solution of the present invention.
