Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of vehicle diversion technology, specifically to a vehicle queue separation device for highway weighing equipment. Background Technology
[0002] In road management, due to the limited load-bearing capacity of road surfaces, overloaded vehicle diversion is a crucial aspect. Some heavy vehicles, due to their significant weight, can cause severe damage to road surfaces when traveling on certain sections, leading to safety hazards and high maintenance costs over time. Currently, vehicle weighing and release are typically done manually, resulting in low efficiency. Therefore, a device capable of weighing and restricting vehicle movement is needed to reduce road surface damage, optimize traffic flow, and improve efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0023] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. Identical components are indicated by the same reference numerals.
[0024] It should be noted that the terms “front,” “back,” “left,” “right,” “up,” and “down” used in the following description refer to the directions shown in the attached diagram, while the terms “inside” and “outside” refer to the directions toward or away from the geometric center of a specific component, respectively.
[0025] To make the content of this utility model easier to understand, the technical solutions in the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0026] Example 1
[0027] Combined with appendix Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, a highway weighing equipment vehicle queuing separation device includes a road surface 1. A weighing assembly and a barrier gate assembly are installed on the road surface 1. The weighing assembly includes a weighing platform 2 installed on the road surface 1. The weighing platform 2 has ramps 18 on both sides in the vehicle travel direction, facilitating vehicles to enter and exit the weighing platform 2. A weight sensor 3 is installed on the bottom surface of the weighing platform 2. When a vehicle drives onto the weighing platform 2, the weight sensor 3 weighs the vehicle.
[0028] To achieve traffic diversion and restrict overweight vehicles, in conjunction with... Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the barrier gate assembly includes symmetrically arranged columns 4 on both sides of the road surface 1, with a storage box 5 connected between the two columns 4. The storage box is located below the road surface 1, and a through hole 6 is provided on the road surface 1 to communicate with the storage box 5. Each of the two columns 4 is provided with a sliding groove 7, and a lead screw 8 is rotatably installed in the sliding groove 7. A gate frame 9 is threadedly connected to the two lead screws 8. One of the columns 4 is provided with an equipment chamber 10, and the other column 4 is provided with an equipment chamber 2 11. The equipment chamber 10 is provided with a control box 12, and the equipment chamber 2 11 is provided with a motor 13. The output end of the motor 13 is connected to one of the lead screws 8. The bottom of the two lead screws 8 is fixed with a synchronous pulley 14, and the two synchronous pulleys 14 are connected by a toothed synchronous belt 15. The motor 13 and the weight sensor 3 are electrically connected to the control box 12.
[0029] After the weight sensor 3 completes the weighing, it sends the value to the control box 12. The control box 12 is preset with the maximum vehicle weight for this section of road 1. If the value exceeds the set value, the control box 12 will not send a start signal to the power supply. If the vehicle weight is less than the set value, the control box 12 will send a start signal to the motor 13. The motor 13 drives the lead screw 8 to rotate. At this time, with the cooperation of the synchronous belt 15 and the synchronous pulley 14, the lead screws 8 on both sides rotate at the same frequency, ensuring that the gate frame 9 descends smoothly until the gate frame 9 is completely stored in the storage box 5 so that vehicles can pass. After the vehicle has passed, the lead screw 8 reverses, and the gate frame 9 rises to continue to intercept vehicles.
[0030] Among them, the combination of appendix Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the two ends of the gate frame 9 are adapted to the sliding groove 7. The gate frame 9 and the sliding groove 7 are adapted to each other. This design restricts the range of motion of the gate frame 9, so that it can only move vertically along the screw rod 8. The plates on the upper and lower surfaces of the gate frame 9 fit with the through hole 6, and the two sides of the upper surface of the gate frame 9 are provided with rubber strips 16. This design reduces the gap between the gate frame 9 and the storage box 5, reduces the amount of debris entering the storage box 5 when vehicles pass through, and prevents the gate assembly from malfunctioning.
[0031] Example 2
[0032] The vehicle may accidentally collide with the gate frame 9. To reduce the damage to the gate frame 9 caused by the impact, based on Embodiment 1, and in conjunction with the appendix... Figure 5 As shown, both sides of the gate plate on the gate frame 9 have a wave-shaped structure, and buffer pads 17 are attached to both sides of the gate plate on the gate frame 9. The buffer pads 17 are designed to absorb the energy generated when the vehicle hits the gate frame 9, so as to reduce the degree of damage to the gate frame 9.
[0033] Combined with appendix Figure 1 As shown, a rain shelter 19 is connected to the road surface 1. The rain shelter 19 covers the gate assembly and can block sunlight, rain and other external factors such as wind and rain, thereby reducing the damage to the gate assembly and extending its service life.
[0034] The present invention and its embodiments have been described above. This description is not restrictive, and the accompanying drawings are only one embodiment of the present invention; the actual structure is not limited thereto. In conclusion, if those skilled in the art are inspired by this description and design similar structures and embodiments without departing from the inventive spirit of the present invention, such designs should fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
