Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of traffic management, and in particular to a barrier gate mechanism with an alarm device for adding a long lifting barrier. Background Technology

[0002] In modern transportation toll systems, toll booths play a crucial role, and their efficiency and accuracy directly impact traffic flow and the effectiveness of toll management. While the widespread application of Electronic Toll Collection (ETC) technology has greatly improved vehicle traffic efficiency, it has also brought some new challenges.

[0003] In daily operations, ETC lane barriers sometimes remain raised for extended periods. This stems from antenna malfunctions, such as signal interference, equipment or software issues causing misinterpretation of vehicle information leading to barrier elevation, or interference from adjacent lanes causing barrier malfunctions. When barriers are raised for extended periods, vehicles may attempt to evade tolls without proper payment, resulting in revenue loss, disrupting toll collection order, and complicating financial auditing and management. Furthermore, under the current operating model, high traffic volume makes staff easily distracted, and traditional monitoring systems lack efficient mechanisms to detect and warn of prolonged barrier elevations, making it difficult for on-site personnel to detect in a timely manner. This can lead to a chain of problems, including disputes over toll evasion, lane congestion, and hinder the normal operation of the toll station.

[0004] To address this issue, a long-lift alarm device for barrier gates has been proposed. This device can trigger an audible and visual alarm immediately when the barrier is fully raised, thus alerting on-site personnel to take immediate action and preventing the loss of toll fees. Utility Model Content

[0005] This utility model addresses the shortcomings of existing technologies by triggering an audible and visual alarm on the device box when the lane barrier is raised for more than one minute. This allows staff to handle the situation promptly, preventing vehicles from rushing out without being charged, reducing economic losses, preventing disputes over toll evasion, avoiding toll disputes and management chaos, maintaining toll collection order, ensuring the normal operation of the toll station, and preventing lane congestion caused by the failure to promptly address the issue of the barrier being raised for an extended period.

[0006] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model achieves the effect of triggering an audible and visual alarm immediately when the railing is raised, thereby reminding on-site personnel to take immediate action.

[0007] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: A barrier gate mechanism with an added long-lift alarm device includes a lane barrier mounted on a device box. The top of the device box has an installation groove, and an audible and visual alarm is installed inside the installation groove. The device box also has a time relay inside, which works with the audible and visual alarm to extend the lifting time of the lane barrier. The audible and visual alarm is covered by a sealing cover and a guide cover. The bottom of the sealing cover is connected to a cover bottom. An annular groove is formed at the outer rim of the installation groove, into which the cover bottom is inserted. A sealing ring is provided between the cover bottom and the annular groove for sealing.

[0008] Preferably, an outer limiting ring is connected to the outer wall of the lamp housing of the audible and visual alarm, and the top of the guide cover is tightly fitted to the bottom of the outer limiting ring.

[0009] Preferably, the outer periphery of the outer limiting ring is curved.

[0010] Preferably, the guide cover and the guide edge are designed as an integral structure, and the guide cover is constructed in a conical shape.

[0011] Preferably, the outer periphery of the bottom of the guide cover is connected with an outlet edge for guiding fluid or substance.

[0012] Preferably, the derived edge is configured as a ramp.

[0013] Preferably, the interior of the guide cover, the outlet edge and the sealing cover is provided with a plurality of flow grooves evenly distributed, and the flow grooves are in a vertical state.

[0014] Preferably, the bottom of the cover has an annular inner groove, which is connected to several of the flow grooves.

[0015] Preferably, one end of the annular inner groove extends to the outside of the bottom of the cover to guide water.

[0016] Preferably, one end of the annular inner groove extending outward is connected to a drain pipe, which extends horizontally along the device box and has its opening extending downward for drainage.

[0017] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects: The barrier gate provided in this application is equipped with a long-lift alarm device. When the lane barrier is raised for more than 1 minute, the audible and visual alarm on the device box will be triggered, so that the staff can deal with it in time, prevent vehicles from rushing out without being charged, reduce economic losses, prevent toll evasion disputes, avoid toll disputes and management chaos, maintain toll collection order, ensure the normal operation of the toll station, and prevent lane congestion caused by the failure to deal with the long-lift barrier in time.

[0018] The sealing cover, guide cover, flow channel, annular inner channel, and outlet pipe in this application constitute a complete waterproof system. In rainy weather, rainwater can be effectively guided and discharged, preventing water accumulation from damaging key components such as the audible and visual alarm and time relay, ensuring the device can operate normally even in adverse weather conditions.

[0019] The design and installation of each component in this application take stability and reliability into account. For example, the outer limiting ring limits the guide cover, and the sealing ring ensures the sealing cover and the mounting groove are sealed and prevent slippage. These designs enable the device to maintain structural stability during long-term use and reduce the probability of failure caused by component loosening or displacement. Attached Figure Description

Example

[0027] Please see Figure 1-9 A barrier gate mechanism with an added long-lift alarm device includes a lane barrier 2 mounted on a device box 1. The top of the device box 1 has an installation groove 1001, and an audible and visual alarm 101 is installed inside the installation groove 1001. The device box 1 also has a time relay 102 installed inside, which works with the audible and visual alarm 101 to extend the lifting time of the lane barrier 2. The audible and visual alarm 101 is covered with a sealing cover 3 and a guide cover 4. The bottom of the sealing cover 3 is connected to a cover bottom 301. An annular groove 1002 is provided at the outer rim of the installation groove 1001, into which the cover bottom 301 is inserted. A sealing ring 302 is provided between the cover bottom 301 and the annular groove 1002 for sealing.

[0028] The barrier gate mechanism with added long lifting alarm device of this application is mainly composed of device box 1, sound and light alarm 101, time relay 102, lane barrier 2, sealing cover 3, cover bottom 301 and guide cover 4 and other components. The following is a detailed description of the structure and working principle.

[0029] (a) Preparations before installation On-site preparation Install device box 1 at a suitable location in the ETC lane of Ciyu Fourth Station, ensuring that the location does not affect the normal passage of the lane and facilitates subsequent maintenance and operation.

[0030] (II) Installation Procedures Positioning and fixing of device box 1 Place the device box 1 in the selected location and secure it firmly to the ground or other supporting structure using screws or other fasteners to ensure that it does not shake during use.

[0031] Installation of audible and visual alarm 101 and time relay 102 Open the cabinet door of device box 1 and carefully place the audible and visual alarm 101 into the mounting slot 1001 at the top. During placement, ensure the audible and visual alarm 101 is accurately positioned to ensure normal operation and easy connection to the time relay 102. Based on the actual site conditions, various relays and audible and visual alarms 101 were tested, and the time relay 102 was ultimately selected. The audible and visual alarm 101 is based on a 24V audible and visual alarm.

[0032] Install the time relay 102 in the designated location inside the device box 1. Connect the audible and visual alarm 101 to the time relay 102 using a wire. When connecting, strictly follow the electrical wiring specifications to ensure a secure connection and prevent short circuits or other problems.

[0033] Inspect the connected wiring to ensure that all connections are secure and wrap any exposed wires with insulating tape or other insulating materials to prevent electric shock.

[0034] Installation of sealing and water guiding components The sealing cover 3 is fitted over the outside of the main body of the audible and visual alarm 101. During the fitting process, it is important to ensure that the sealing cover 3 fits tightly against the audible and visual alarm 101 to prevent rainwater or other foreign objects from entering.

[0035] The guide cover 4 is installed above the sealing cover 3. The tapered design of the guide cover 4 helps to guide rainwater to the outer periphery during rainy weather. The sloping outlet edge 401 of the bottom outer periphery of the guide cover 4 should be oriented in a suitable direction to maximize the rainwater outlet area.

[0036] The flow grooves 501, evenly spaced inside the sealing cover 3, guide cover 4, and outlet edge 401, should be ensured to be unobstructed. The cover bottom 301 should be fixedly connected to the bottom of the sealing cover 3, ensuring a secure connection during the connection process.

[0037] Insert the cover bottom 301 into the annular groove 1002 at the outer ring opening of the mounting slot 1001. Before insertion, place the sealing ring 302 in the groove at the bottom of the cover bottom 301. When the cover bottom 301 is inserted into the annular groove 1002, the sealing ring 302 will be tightly pressed against the outer periphery of the bottom of the inner wall of the annular groove 1002, achieving a good sealing and anti-slip effect.

[0038] Insert the outlet pipe 503 into the outward-extending end of the annular inner groove 502. The outlet pipe 503 should extend horizontally along the device box 1 with the opening pointing downwards to ensure smooth drainage of rainwater. Since the outlet pipe 503 is made of rigid material, care should be taken to avoid damaging the pipe during installation.

[0039] Check whether the outer limiting ring 13 around the main body of the audible and visual alarm 101 is tightly fitted to the top of the guide cover 4. The arc design of the outer limiting ring 13 can not only limit the operation of the guide cover 4, but also protect its lower structure without affecting the warning function of the audible and visual alarm 101.

[0040] Working principle (a) Railing long-lift alarm mechanism Monitoring principle of time relay 102 The time relay 102 plays a crucial monitoring role in the entire system. It is connected to the control circuit of the lane barrier 2 to monitor the barrier's raising status in real time.

[0041] When lane barrier 2 begins to rise, time relay 102 starts timing. Under normal circumstances, the barrier rises for a short time, allowing the vehicle to pass through the ETC lane and complete the payment process. The barrier then falls back down normally.

[0042] However, when the barrier is raised for an extended period due to reasons such as antenna malfunction or interference from adjacent lanes, the time relay 102 will continue to time. Once the time exceeds the preset 1 minute, the time relay 102 will trigger the audible and visual alarm 101.

[0043] Working principle of sound and light alarm 101 When triggered by time relay 102, the audible and visual alarm 101 will start immediately. The audible and visual alarm 101 contains a light-emitting element and a sound-emitting element.

[0044] The light-emitting element emits a bright flash, which is highly visible to staff in the tollbooth environment. Simultaneously, the sound-emitting element emits a high-decibel alarm, which can attract the attention of staff in the noisy tollbooth environment.

[0045] The sound and light alarm 101 uses this combined sound and light alarm method to ensure that on-site staff can promptly detect when the lane barrier 2 is raised, so as to take quick measures to deal with the situation, prevent vehicles from rushing out of the toll station without being charged, and prevent the loss of toll fees.

[0046] (ii) Waterproofing mechanism When rainwater falls onto the guide cover 4, the conical structure and hydrophobic coating on the surface of the guide cover 4 work together to cause the rainwater to flow rapidly in all directions. The surface shape of the guide cover 4 is optimized, and its taper and curvature ensure that the rainwater has sufficient kinetic energy during the flow, reducing the time that the rainwater stays on the surface of the cover.

[0047] The slope angle of the leading edge 401 is precisely calculated so that, under the action of gravity and the kinetic energy of the rainwater itself, the rainwater can leave the bottom area of ​​the guide cover 4 at the fastest speed.

[0048] The principle of precise internal guidance and efficient discharge of rainwater The design of the flow channel 501 not only considers the function of guiding rainwater but also the problem of preventing blockage by foreign objects. The width and depth of the flow channel 501 are optimized to ensure that rainwater can pass through quickly while preventing larger foreign objects such as leaves and dust from entering. After rainwater flows into the annular inner channel 502 through the flow channel 501, the annular structure of the annular inner channel 502 can evenly collect rainwater from each flow channel 501. The inner wall of the annular inner channel 502 is made of a smooth, waterproof material to reduce the resistance of rainwater flow within the channel. The connection between the outlet pipe 503 and the annular inner channel 502 adopts a special sealing and connection structure. This structure can ensure smooth rainwater discharge while preventing rainwater leakage from the connection. The inner diameter and length of the outlet pipe 503 are designed to ensure that rainwater is discharged at an appropriate flow rate within the pipe, avoiding water accumulation or poor drainage. The downward-extending design of the outlet pipe 503 allows rainwater to drain naturally using gravity.

[0049] Those skilled in the art should understand that the embodiments of the present invention described above and shown in the accompanying drawings are merely examples and do not limit the present invention. The purpose of the present invention has been fully and effectively achieved. The functions and structural principles of the present invention have been shown and explained in the embodiments. Without departing from the stated principles, the implementation of the present invention may have any variations or modifications.
