Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of building engineering, and in particular to an integrated dual self-service boarding gate that is combined with a structural column for use at boarding gates. Background Technology

[0002] With the advancement of economic and technological strength, the transportation capacity of China's civil aviation industry has improved, and airlines are committed to enhancing airport service quality and improving the passenger experience. In the traditional passenger boarding process, long queues can occur, potentially causing flight delays and disrupting travel plans if time is tight. Reducing human resource waste and improving passenger boarding speed and airport intelligence have become new research directions for boarding gate redesign. Currently, the boarding process requires staff to check each passenger's boarding pass individually and manually scan them to enter the data into the system, resulting in low efficiency. This often leads to long boarding times and long queues, effectively extending passengers' time at the airport and causing inconvenience.

[0003] Furthermore, traditional boarding gate designs primarily consist of counters with backing signs, which hinders passenger flow management. Some boarding gates are also constrained by structural columns, making layout difficult and limiting their functionality. Utility Model Content

[0004] To address the aforementioned technical issues, this utility model provides an integrated dual self-service boarding gate that incorporates structural columns. By using structural columns with clamps to form a gantry with the cantilever, it integrates functions such as self-service gates, facial recognition, monitoring systems, and manual counters. Under space constraints, it achieves intelligent boarding gate operation and can simultaneously serve two boarding gates, significantly improving boarding gate utilization efficiency.

[0005] The technical solution of this utility model is as follows: an integrated dual self-service boarding gate combined with a structural column, characterized in that: a clamp is fixed to the structural column; a cantilever extends from the clamp to both sides and forms a gantry frame together with the clamp and the structural column; multiple flight information display screens are installed under the cantilever; a counter is set in front of the structural column and is integrated with the gantry frame; a turnstile is set under the flight information display screen; one side of the turnstile is a counter and the other side is a display screen; a monitoring system is set on the clamp; and a facial recognition system is set on each turnstile.

[0006] Based on the above technical features: a manual passage is set up between the counter and the turnstile.

[0007] Based on the above technical features: the gantry, flight display screen, counter, turnstile and display screen are all arranged symmetrically with the structural column as the axis.

[0008] Based on the above technical features: the corners of the counters, cantilever arms, turnstiles, and display screens are all rounded.

[0009] Based on the above technical features: the area under the counter is an oil-brushed stainless steel kickboard.

[0010] Based on the above technical features: the display screen is a push-pull type, and the screen on the display screen can be pulled out horizontally; the boarding gate number is embedded in the display screen and is an illuminated character.

[0011] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0012] Enhance the intelligence level of airport operations. Considering the process of passengers becoming familiar with the self-service facilities, it is estimated that the boarding speed will not be slower than the existing level during the initial operation period. After the operation is stable, that is, after passengers are familiar with the equipment, the boarding gate of this utility model will increase the passenger boarding speed by more than 15% and significantly reduce the queue length.

[0013] Make full use of existing elements and improve space utilization under limited space conditions. Attached Figure Description

[0017] The specific embodiments of this utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. These embodiments are only used to illustrate this utility model and are not intended to limit it.

[0018] In the description of this utility model, it should be noted that the terms "center", "longitudinal", "lateral", "upper", "lower", "front", "rear", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "top", "bottom", "inner", and "outer" indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings. They are only for the convenience of describing this utility model and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this utility model.

[0019] In the description of this utility model, it should be noted that, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "connection," and "joining" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a mechanical connection, a direct connection, or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; or they can refer to the internal connection of two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model according to the specific circumstances.

[0020] Furthermore, in the description of this utility model, unless otherwise stated, "a plurality of" means two or more.

[0021] like Figure 1 As shown, an integrated dual self-service boarding gate combined with structural columns includes a clamp 1; a cantilever 2; a flight information display screen 3; a display screen 4; a monitoring system 5; a counter 6; a facial recognition system 7; a boarding gate number 8; and a turnstile 9.

[0022] The clamp 1 is fixed to the structural column; the cantilever 2 extends from the clamp 1 to both sides, forming a gantry together with the clamp 1 and the structural column; multiple flight information display screens 3 are installed under the cantilever 2; the counter 6 is set in front of the structural column and integrated with the gantry. The turnstile 9 is set under the flight information display screens 3; one side of the turnstile 9 is the counter 6, and the other side is the display screen 4; the monitoring system 5 is set on the clamp 1 to facilitate monitoring of passenger activities within the boarding gate area; each turnstile 9 is equipped with a facial recognition system 7.

[0023] The boarding gate has a streamlined shape with rounded corners, allowing for seamless treatment of artificial stone and joints.

[0024] The flight display screen 3 is suspended below the cantilever 2. Figure 1 The image shows three horizontally arranged flight information display screens 3. Each flight information display screen 3 can display "Manual Channel", "VIP Channel" or "Regular Passenger", etc. The content of the flight information display screens 3 can be flexibly adjusted according to the situation on site to appropriately divert passengers and alleviate congestion at the boarding gate.

[0025] In existing technologies, turnstiles are generally divided into double-door self-service turnstiles and single-door self-service turnstiles. A field survey at a major domestic hub airport showed that double-door self-service turnstiles typically process 2 to 3 passengers per minute, while single-door self-service turnstiles typically process 5 to 7 passengers per minute. These speeds will increase further as passengers become more familiar with the equipment. Conventional manual counters typically process 12 to 15 people per minute. Currently, airport boarding gates generally have either one manual counter or one self-service turnstile. Calculations show that using three single-door self-service turnstiles significantly improves throughput and reduces queue length. It is recommended to use three single-door self-service turnstiles when the boarding gate corresponds to a Category E aircraft, and two single-door self-service turnstiles when the boarding gate corresponds to a Category C aircraft.

[0026] To accommodate elderly, infirm, disabled, and some special passengers, the boarding gate of this invention can still retain a manual check-in channel 10. When necessary, this manual channel can also serve as a diversion route. The manual check-in channel 10 can be located between the counter 6 and the turnstile 9.

[0027] Each gate is equipped with a facial recognition system, enabling normal operation of the boarding gate in an unattended state and promoting the construction of a smart airport.

[0028] The counter and gantry frame are integrated into one unit. The area under the counter can be fitted with an oil-brushed stainless steel kickboard.

[0029] Display screen 4 is a sliding screen type, and the screen on display screen 4 can be pulled out horizontally for easy maintenance.

[0030] The gate number 8 is embedded in the display screen 4 and is illuminated.

[0031] The monitoring system 5 is installed on the clamp 1 and symmetrically arranged on both sides of the structural column, which can monitor the status of the entire boarding gate.

[0032] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model. It should be noted that for those skilled in the art, several improvements and substitutions can be made without departing from the technical principles of the present utility model, and these improvements and substitutions should also be considered within the protection scope of the present utility model.
