Entrance and exit vehicle snapshot barrier gate

Abstract

The utility model relates to the technical field of barrier gate equipment, in particular to an entrance and exit vehicle snapshot barrier gate. Comprising a brake box, a brake bar is rotationally installed outside the brake box and can be driven by driving equipment arranged in the brake box to rotate forwards or backwards, a supporting rod is rotationally installed at the end of the brake bar, a foot pad is axially installed at the bottom end of the supporting rod in a sliding mode, and a first spring is arranged between the foot pad and the supporting rod. When the gate rod is changed from the vertical state of rod retracting to the horizontal state of rod releasing, the foot pad firstly makes contact with the ground to bear the load weight of the gate rod. The weight load of the brake bar and the inertia impact of deflection act on the first spring and are buffered and released through stretching and retracting of the first spring, and therefore vibration caused by impact when a supporting rod makes contact with the ground after a traditional brake bar is released is avoided.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of barrier gate equipment technology, and in particular to a barrier gate for capturing images of vehicles at entrances and exits. Background Technology

[0002] A barrier gate, also known as a vehicle barrier, is a gate access control device specifically designed to restrict the movement of motor vehicles on roads. It is now widely used in highway toll stations and parking lot systems to manage vehicle access.

[0003] The barrier gate consists of a housing, gate arm support, gate arm, and a drive mechanism for rotating the gate arm (including a gearbox, motor (or hydraulic) transmission mechanism, and balancing device). When in use, a front-mounted camera captures vehicle information and license plate number, determining the vehicle's entry / exit time and displaying this information on a screen along with the required fee. After payment, the gate's drive mechanism rotates the gate arm to retract, allowing the gate to close after the vehicle has passed.

[0004] To prevent the gate arm from bending due to prolonged suspension, a support rod is typically installed at the end of the gate arm. When the gate arm is lowered to a horizontal position, the support rod rests against the ground, thus supporting the end of the gate arm, increasing its strength, and reducing the probability of bending.

[0005] However, it should be noted that in actual use, when the gate arm is retracted and extended, the bottom of the support rod hits the ground directly. Even with soft pads, it cannot be effectively cushioned and is very easy to be damaged.

[0006] Therefore, this application provides an entrance / exit vehicle capture barrier gate, which effectively cushions the support rod during the raising and lowering of the gate arm. Utility Model Content

[0007] The purpose of this application is to solve the problems existing in the prior art by proposing an entrance and exit vehicle capture barrier gate.

[0008] To achieve the above objectives, this application adopts the following technical solution:

[0009] A vehicle capture barrier gate for entrances and exits includes a gate box, a gate arm rotatably mounted outside the gate box, the gate arm being driven by a drive device installed inside the gate box to be able to rotate forward / reverse, a support rod rotatably mounted at the end of the gate arm, a foot pad axially slidingly mounted at the bottom end of the support rod, and a spring provided between the foot pad and the support rod.

[0010] Preferably, the bottom end of the support rod is provided with a convex groove, the upper end of the foot pad is axially slidingly engaged with the small-diameter part of the upper end of the groove, and the side of the foot pad is provided with a convex edge that engages with the large-diameter end of the groove.

[0011] Preferably, the foot pad includes a mounting rod that mates with the slide groove and a rubber pad located outside the slide groove, the rubber pad being detachably connected to the mounting rod.

[0012] Preferably, the bottom end of the mounting rod is provided with a threaded hole, and the upper end of the rubber pad is provided with a rubber stud that is threadedly engaged with the threaded hole.

[0013] Preferably, the end of the gate arm is detachably fitted with a sleeve, the bottom end of the sleeve is provided with a connecting seat, and the upper end of the support rod is provided with double lugs that rotate with the connecting seat.

[0014] Preferably, the bottom end of the connecting seat is provided with a vertical slot, a top rod is vertically slidably installed in the slot, a spring is provided between the top rod and the slot, the lower end of the top rod is spherical, and the double lugs are provided with spherical grooves that cooperate with the spherical end of the top rod.

[0015] Preferably, the spherical groove has a chamfer on the side facing away from the gate box.

[0016] Compared with the prior art, this application provides an entrance / exit vehicle capture barrier gate, which has the following advantages:

[0017] When the gate arm changes from a vertical position (retracted) to a horizontal position (extended), the foot pads first contact the ground to bear the weight of the gate arm. The weight load of the gate arm and the inertial impact of deflection act on spring one, which is buffered and released by the extension and contraction of spring one, thus avoiding the vibration caused by the impact of the support rod contacting the ground after the traditional gate arm is extended.

[0018] Other advantages, objectives and features of this application will be set forth in part in the description which follows; and in part will be apparent to those skilled in the art upon examination of the following description; or may be learned from practice of this application.

[0027] The following will refer to the appendices in the embodiments of this application. Figure 1-7 The technical solutions in the embodiments of this application are clearly and completely described. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this application, and not all embodiments.

[0028] Example 1: In order to solve the problems existing in the prior art, this example provides an entrance and exit vehicle capture barrier gate, including a gate box 1. A gate arm 2 is rotatably installed outside the gate box 1. The gate arm 2 is driven by a drive device installed in the gate box 1 and can rotate forward and backward. A support rod 3 is rotatably installed at the end of the gate arm 2. A foot pad 9 is axially slidably installed at the bottom end of the support rod 3. A spring is provided between the foot pad 9 and the support rod 3.

[0029] Principle details of this embodiment:

[0030] A vehicle access control barrier includes a gate housing 1. A gate arm 2 is rotatably mounted outside the gate housing 1, and the gate arm 2 is driven by a drive device located inside the gate housing 1 to rotate forward and backward. The drive device can be any one of a motor, a gearbox combination, or a hydraulic assembly. The specific structure can refer to the structure of the 615 hydraulic type entrance / exit barrier housing.

[0031] A support rod 3 is rotatably mounted on the suspended end of the gate arm 2, and the plane of rotation of the support rod 3 coincides with the length direction of the gate arm 2. A foot pad 9 is axially slidably mounted on the bottom end of the support rod 3, and a spring is provided between the foot pad 9 and the support rod 3.

[0032] According to the above technical solution: when the gate arm 2 changes from a vertical position (retracted) to a horizontal position (extended), the foot pad 9 contacts the ground first to bear the load weight of the gate arm 2. The weight load of the gate arm 2 and the inertial impact of deflection act on the spring 1, which is buffered and released by the extension and contraction of the spring 1, thereby avoiding the vibration caused by the impact of the support rod 3 contacting the ground after the gate arm 2 is extended, as is the case with traditional gate arm 2.

[0033] Example 2, a further embodiment of this solution, provides a specific structure for achieving axial sliding engagement between the foot pad 9 and the support rod 3:

[0034] See attached document Figure 5 and attached Figure 7As shown, the bottom end of the support rod 3 is provided with a sliding groove 10. The front cross-section of the sliding groove 10 is convex, and the side cross-section is I-shaped. The upper end of the foot pad 9 has notches on both sides that fit with the front cross-section of the sliding groove 10, so that the foot pad 9 and the small-diameter part of the upper end of the sliding groove 10 can slide axially. The upper end of the side cross-section of the upper end of the foot pad 9 is provided with an edge, which slides vertically within the I-shaped side of the sliding groove 10, thereby preventing the foot pad 9 from falling out of the sliding groove 10. The side of the foot pad 9 is provided with a protruding edge 903 that fits with the large-diameter end of the sliding groove 10. When the gate rod 2 is horizontal, the foot pad 9 is placed on the ground. Once the spring is compressed, the protruding edge 903 of the foot pad 9 abuts against the end face of the large-diameter part of the sliding groove 10, limiting the expansion and contraction distance of the foot pad 9 within the sliding groove 10, so as to ensure the supporting force of the foot pad 9 on the support rod 3.

[0035] In a further embodiment of this solution, as described in Example 3, the foot pad 9 includes a mounting rod 901 that mates with the slide groove 10 and a rubber pad 902 located outside the slide groove 10. The rubber pad 902 is detachably connected to the mounting rod 901. The rubber pad 902 is elastic and tough, making it more suitable for shock absorption compared to hard materials. Since the rubber pad 902 is prone to wear, it is detachable for easy replacement after damage.

[0036] Example 4, a further embodiment of this solution, provides a detachable structure for the mounting rod 901 and the rubber pad 902: the mounting rod 901 has a threaded hole at its bottom end, and the rubber pad 902 has a rubber stud at its upper end that threads into the threaded hole. The rubber pad 902 and the mounting rod 901 can be detachably installed by screwing the threads together.

[0037] Preferably, the rubber pad 902 can also be fastened to the mounting rod 901 by countersunk screws.

[0038] In Example 5, a further embodiment of this solution, a sleeve 4 is detachably installed at the end of the gate arm 2. A connecting seat 5 is provided at the bottom of the sleeve 4, and a double lug 6, which rotatably engages with the connecting seat 5, is provided at the upper end of the support rod 3. The support rod 3 is rotatably installed on the sleeve 4 via the connecting seat 5 and the double lug 6, thus achieving the installation between the support rod 3 and the gate arm 2. The sleeve 4 is fitted onto the end of the gate arm 2, and corresponding through holes are provided on the side wall of the sleeve 4 and the end of the gate arm 2. Bolts are passed through these through holes to secure the sleeve 4 to the end of the gate arm 2, facilitating maintenance and disassembly.

[0039] In Example 6, a further embodiment of this solution, since the connecting seat 5 and the double hook 6 are rotatably connected, if the rotating part is too flexible, it will be difficult to keep the gate arm 2 stable and perpendicular to the ground when it is flat; if the rotating part is too tight, the support rod 3 will not easily deflect when the gate arm 2 is flat and retracted, and it will easily hook the roof of the vehicle.

[0040] Therefore, in this embodiment, the bottom end of the connecting seat 5 is provided with a vertical slot, and a top rod 7 is vertically slidably installed in the slot. A spring is provided between the top rod 7 and the slot. The lower end of the top rod 7 is spherical, and the double lug 6 is provided with a spherical groove 8 that mates with the spherical end of the top rod 7. The spherical end of the top rod 7 and the spherical groove 8 form a slight limit, so that when the gate arm 2 is flat, the support rod 3 hangs down under the action of gravity, so that the lower end of the top rod 7 inserts into the spherical groove 8 to limit the support rod 3, preventing the support rod 3 from rotating too flexibly after being flat and failing to provide stable support to the ground.

[0041] Example 7, a further embodiment of this solution, refers to the appendix. Figure 6 As shown, the spherical groove 8 has a chamfer on the side facing away from the gate box 1. This allows the support rod 3 to deflect in the following ways: when the gate arm 2 is retracted, it can fold down relative to the gate arm 2; when the gate arm 2 is flat, the maximum angle of downward deflection is only to the ground. This prevents the support rod 3 from deflecting due to gravity and inertia after the top rod 7 is inserted into the spherical groove 8.

Any equivalent substitutions or modifications made by those skilled in the art within the scope of the technology disclosed in this application, based on the technical solution and application concept of this application, should be included within the scope of protection of this application.
