Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of turnstile technology, and in particular to a lifting structure and ticket checking equipment. Background Technology

[0002] In outdoor snow and ice settings such as ski resorts, turnstiles serve as crucial ticket checking and access devices, playing a vital role in controlling crowd flow and verifying tickets. Their stable operation directly impacts visitor entry efficiency and experience. However, the snow-covered environment in these settings presents unique challenges for equipment maintenance: as snowfall continues, the bottom of the turnstiles easily becomes covered in snow. If the height is not adjusted in time, it can lead to turnstile jamming, obstructed passage, and even equipment damage due to snow icing.

[0003] The current industry standard for height adjustment has significant limitations: the equipment has a sheet metal groove at the bottom as a limiting structure for height adjustment. Adjustment requires manual lifting of the gate body, precise alignment with the corresponding holes in the groove, and then securing it with bolts. Due to the gate's considerable weight and the tendency for metal components to jam in low temperatures, lifting it by a single person is difficult; in practice, multiple people are often needed, increasing manpower and extending adjustment time due to coordination issues. Furthermore, frequent snow removal and height adjustments significantly increase after-sales maintenance costs for ski resorts and may also affect visitor access efficiency due to untimely equipment adjustments, thus reducing the user experience.

[0027] It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features described in this application can be combined with each other. The preferred embodiments of this utility model will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0028] Reference Figures 1 to 4 As shown, this invention illustrates an embodiment of the lifting structure and ticket checking equipment. The lifting structure includes a gate housing 1, a base 2, and a lifting assembly 3. The lifting assembly 3 is elliptically connected to the base 2, and its top end is fixedly connected to the gate housing 1. Activating the lifting assembly 3 causes the gate housing 1 to move vertically.

[0029] Specifically, a turnstile is an electromechanical device used to control the passage of people, typically installed at the entrances / exits of places where pedestrian flow needs to be restricted or managed. Its core function is to allow authorized personnel to pass through while preventing unauthorized personnel from passing. As one of the core components of ticket checking equipment, the importance of turnstiles is self-evident. In special scenarios, the height of the turnstile needs to be adjusted. For example, in outdoor snow and ice environments such as ski resorts, as snowfall continues, the bottom of the turnstile is easily covered by snow. If the height is not adjusted in time, it can cause the turnstile to jam, obstruct passage, or even damage the equipment due to snow and ice.

[0030] Therefore, this application provides a height-adjustable lifting structure, which is applicable to the lifting function of large equipment. In this embodiment, the lifting structure is applied to a turnstile, which is applicable to ticket checking and security fields. The lifting structure is simple and quick to control, thereby improving work efficiency and reducing costs.

[0031] The lifting structure includes a gate housing 1, a base 2, and a lifting assembly 3. The gate housing 1 is a key structure that ensures the stable operation of the gate and realizes its core functions, and it has the function of interception. The base 2 supports the gate housing 1, giving it a certain height, and is located below the gate housing 1. The lifting assembly 3 is used to lift and connect the gate housing 1 and the base 2. The top of the lifting assembly 3 is fixedly connected to the gate housing 1, and the lifting assembly 3 is also lifted and connected to the base 2. Therefore, the lifting assembly 3 can move up and down relative to the base 2, thereby driving the gate housing 1 to move up and down relative to the base 2.

[0032] When it is necessary to adjust the height of the gate housing 1, the lifting component 3 can be activated, thereby causing the lifting component 3 to move the gate housing 1 up and down relative to the base 2 until the gate housing 1 is raised or lowered to the designated position. Then, the lifting component 3 can be stopped to fix the gate housing 1 at the designated position.

[0033] Therefore, this application provides a lifting assembly 3 between the gate housing 1 and the base 2. By controlling the start and stop of the lifting assembly 3, the height of the gate housing 1 can be adjusted relative to the base 2. This allows for height adjustment of the gate housing 1 simply by controlling the lifting assembly 3. The operation is simple and reliable, requiring no multiple people or a lot of physical effort, thus reducing manpower consumption, lowering costs, and providing high adjustment efficiency without affecting the user's passage efficiency and improving the user experience.

[0034] More specifically, the base 2 has an internal accommodating space, and the lifting assembly 3 is disposed within the accommodating space, with one end of the lifting assembly 3 passing through the top of the base 2 and fixedly connected to the gate housing 1. Installing the lifting assembly 3 inside the base 2 protects the lifting assembly 3 from damage, while also improving the integration of the lifting structure, reducing its space occupation, and enhancing its aesthetics.

[0035] In one embodiment, reference is made to Figures 1 to 3As shown, the lifting assembly 3 includes an upper fixed plate 31, a lifting component 32, and a lower fixed plate 33. The upper fixed plate 31 is connected to the lifting component 32 and the gate housing 1, and the lower fixed plate 33 is fixedly connected to the base 2. The lifting component 32 is vertically connected to the lower fixed plate 33. Specifically, the lifting assembly 3 includes an upper fixed plate 31, a lifting component 32, and a lower fixed plate 33. The upper fixed plate 31 is used to connect the gate housing 1 and the lifting component 32; the lifting component 32 is used to perform vertical movement to vertically connect the gate housing 1 and the base 2; the lower fixed plate 33 is used to vertically connect the base 2 and the lifting component 32, so that the lifting component 32 can drive the gate housing 1 to perform vertical movement relative to the base 2.

[0036] The upper fixing plate 31 is connected to the gate housing 1 and the lifting component 32 on both sides. In this embodiment, the top end of the upper fixing plate 31 is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the gate housing 1, and the bottom end of the upper fixing plate 31 is connected to the top end of the lifting component 32, so that the lifting component 32 can drive the gate housing 1 to move up and down when it moves up and down. The lower fixing plate 33 is fixedly connected to the base 2, and the lower fixing plate 33 and the lifting component 32 are connected in a lifting manner. That is, the lifting component 32 is connected to the base 2 in a lifting manner through the lower fixing plate 33. When the lifting assembly 3 is started, the lifting component 32 can be started directly, so that when the lifting component 32 moves up and down on the lower fixing plate 33, it does not affect the state of the base 2. It can also improve the structural stability and structural strength of the lifting structure, and improve the stability of the lifting component 32 when it moves up and down.

[0037] In a specific embodiment, refer to Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the lifting component 32 includes a screw 321 and a first nut 322 threadedly connected to the screw 321. One end of the screw 321 passes through the first nut 322 and is rotatably connected to the upper fixed plate 31. Rotating the screw 321 causes it to drive the gate housing 1 to move up and down. Specifically, the lifting component 32 has a lifting function. The lifting component 32 includes a screw 321 and a first nut 322. The first nut 322 is threadedly connected to the screw 321, that is, the first nut 322 is sleeved on the outside of the screw 321 and threadedly connected to it. The first nut 322 is used to convert the rotational motion of the screw 321 into linear motion, so that the screw 321 can move up and down. One end of the screw 321 passes through the first nut 322 and is rotatably connected to the upper fixed plate 31.

[0038] When it is necessary to adjust the height of the gate housing 1, the screw 321 is rotated, and the first nut 322 converts the rotation of the screw 321 into the linear motion of the screw 321, that is, the screw 321 moves up and down, and drives the upper fixed plate 31 to move up and down, thereby driving the gate housing 1 to move up and down.

[0039] The lifting component 32 has a simple structure, high structural strength, and low production cost. Users only need to rotate the screw 321 to realize the lifting movement of the gate box 1, which is simple and quick to operate.

[0040] More specifically, the screw 321 extends along the height direction of the base 2, and the first nut 322 is located at the upper or middle part of the screw 321, thereby ensuring that the screw 321 rotates on the first nut 322 during the lifting and lowering process. This ensures that the first nut 322 can convert the rotational motion of the screw 321 into linear motion, preventing the screw 321 from detaching from the first nut 322, thus making it impossible to achieve the lifting and lowering motion of the screw 321.

[0041] In one embodiment, reference is made to Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the lower fixing plate 33 is provided with a through hole that is rotatably connected to the screw 321. One end of the screw 321 passes through the through hole and is rotatably connected to the upper fixing plate 31. The first nut 322 is threadedly connected to the screw 321 on one side of the lower fixing plate 33. Specifically, the lower fixing plate 33 is provided with a through hole that extends through both the upper and lower sides of the lower fixing plate 33. One end of the screw 321 is then passed through the through hole and rotatably connected to the upper fixing plate 31. At the same time, the screw 321 is rotatably connected to the through hole, thereby ensuring that the screw 321 does not interfere with the upper fixing plate 31 and the lower fixing plate 33 when rotating, improving the rotational stability of the screw 321. Furthermore, the screw 321 can be vertically positioned between the upper fixing plate 31 and the lower fixing plate 33, improving the structural strength of the lifting assembly 3 and preventing the screw 321 from tilting, which would affect the lifting movement of the screw 321, thus ensuring that the screw 321 performs precise lifting movements.

[0042] The first nut 322 is sleeved on the side of the screw 321 located on the lower fixing plate 33, that is, the first nut 322 is located below the lower fixing plate 33, and the first nut 322 is threadedly connected to the screw 321, thereby allowing the screw 321 to move up and down between the upper fixing plate 31 and the lower fixing plate 33, improving the stability of the screw 321 when moving up and down, avoiding the phenomenon of tilting or shaking of the screw 321 during movement, and thus improving the stability of the lifting structure during operation.

[0043] In a specific embodiment, refer to Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the lifting component 32 further includes a second nut 323, which is located between the upper fixed plate 31 and the lower fixed plate 33 and is threadedly connected to the screw 321. Specifically, the lifting component 32 further includes a second nut 323, which is located between the upper fixed plate 31 and the lower fixed plate 33, and is sleeved on one end of the screw 321 and threadedly connected to the screw 321. The second nut 323 is used to convert the rotational motion of the screw 321 into the linear motion of the screw 321, thereby cooperating with the first nut 322 to enable the screw 321 to achieve lifting motion, improving the stability and smoothness of the lifting component 32 during lifting. The second nut 323 is positioned close to the upper fixed plate 31, thereby improving the stability of the movement of the end of the screw 321 connected to the upper fixed plate 31, further preventing the screw 321 from shaking or deviating from its movement trajectory during movement.

[0044] In one embodiment, reference is made to Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the lifting assembly 3 also includes a control element 34, which is connected to the screw 321. The user rotates the control element 34 to control the screw 321 to move up and down. Specifically, the lifting assembly 3 also includes a control element 34, which controls the screw 321 to move up and down. The control element 34 is connected to the screw 321. When the user needs to adjust the height of the gate housing 1, they directly rotate the control element 34 to control the screw 321. That is, rotating the control element 34 drives the screw 321 to rotate, thereby causing the screw 321 to move up or down, which in turn drives the gate housing 1 to move up and down until the gate housing 1 is raised or lowered to the designated position, at which point the rotation of the control element 34 can be stopped.

[0045] Therefore, in this embodiment, the user can directly control the lifting of the lifting component 32 through the control component 34, which is simple, fast and accurate.

[0046] In one embodiment, reference is made toFigures 1 to 3 As shown, the operating component 34 is a handwheel, and the handwheel is sleeved on the outside of the screw 321 located between the upper fixed plate 31 and the lower fixed plate 33. Specifically, the operating component 34 is a handwheel, which has low production cost, thereby reducing the cost of the lifting assembly 3; and the handwheel is sleeved on the screw 321, located between the upper fixed plate 31 and the lower fixed plate 33. When the user rotates the handwheel, it can drive the screw 321 to rotate, thereby causing the screw 321 to perform lifting and lowering movements, further improving the stability of the screw 321's lifting and lowering movements between the upper fixed plate 31 and the lower fixed plate 33; and the various structural components of the lifting assembly 3 are relatively concentrated, resulting in high structural stability, high integration, small space occupation, and a smaller size for the lifting assembly 3.

[0047] In a specific embodiment, refer to Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, the top of the base 2 is provided with a support portion 21, which extends horizontally outward from the outer edge of the base 2 and abuts against the upper fixing plate 31. Specifically, the top of the base 2 is provided with a support portion 21, which extends horizontally outward from the outer edge of the base 2. When the lifting assembly 3 moves the gate housing 1 to the top of the base 2, the support portion 21 abuts against the upper fixing plate 31. The support part 21 is used to limit and support the upper fixing plate 31, so as to ensure that the upper fixing plate 31 is always above the base 2, thereby allowing the upper fixing plate 31 to be stably supported above the base 2, and thus ensuring that the gate housing 1 can be stably supported above the base 2 by the upper fixing plate 31. At the same time, when the upper fixing plate 31 abuts against the top of the support part 21, it can also increase the contact area between the base 2 and the upper fixing plate 31, thereby increasing the support area of ​​the base 2 for the upper fixing plate 31 and the gate housing 1, and improving the installation stability of the gate housing 1.

[0048] In one embodiment, the outer edge of the lower fixing plate 33 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the base 2 (not shown in the figure). Specifically, both the lower fixing plate 33 and the lifting member 32 are installed in the internal space of the base 2, thereby preventing damage to the lower fixing plate 33 and the lifting member 32, and integrating the lifting structure reduces the space occupied by the lifting structure and improves the aesthetics of the lifting structure.

[0049] In this embodiment, the lower fixing plate 33 and the base 2 are fixedly connected. To improve the fixation of the lower fixing plate 33 and the base 2, the outer edge of the lower fixing plate 33 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the base 2, so that the lower fixing plate 33 is more fixedly installed in the internal space of the base 2.

[0050] More specifically, the area of ​​the lower fixing plate 33 is set to be consistent with the cross-sectional area of ​​the internal space of the base 2 to improve the structural strength of the lifting structure.

[0051] Reference Figure 4 As shown, this embodiment also provides a ticket checking device, which includes a gate and a lifting structure. The lifting structure can be any type of lifting structure provided by this utility model. Since the specific structure and working principle of the lifting structure have been described in detail in the previous specification, they will not be repeated here for the sake of brevity.

[0052] The turnstile in the ticket checking device of this embodiment adopts the lifting structure provided by this utility model. The lifting structure can easily and quickly adjust the height of the turnstile, thereby improving the applicability of the ticket checking device and making it suitable for various usage scenarios. Furthermore, the adjustment efficiency of the turnstile height is high, so as not to affect the ticket checking efficiency of the ticket checking device, thereby improving the user experience.

[0053] The above description is merely a specific embodiment of this utility model, but the protection scope of this utility model is not limited thereto. Any person skilled in the art can easily conceive of various equivalent modifications or substitutions within the technical scope disclosed in this utility model, and these modifications or substitutions should all be covered within the protection scope of this utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of this utility model should be determined by the scope of the claims.
