The turnstile device for the users carrying luggage

 

What is a turnstile device?

A turnstile device is suitable the controlled admittance of persons to a building or to an otherwise enclosed or guarded area, comprising a body mounted on a rotatable and blockable axis, which body is provided with at least three arms extending from the body, the arms being oriented such that when rotation of the body is blocked, at least one of the arms is positioned to prevent passage.

Such an entrance turnstile device is generally known from practice and is used, for example, as admittance control unit at airports and railway stations. The latter application is used mainly abroad. Such exterior turnstile devices can also be found as admission control units at places of public amusement such as zoological gardens, swimming pools, and the like.

However, one problem is that passing through this turnstile device while taking along hand luggage meets with difficulties. Passage is then impossible because the security turnstile device does not allow sufficient room. The biggest problems arise when taking along a luggage trolley or a suit bag or laptop bag.

It is necessary to provide a modern turnstile device with which these problems do not exist, so that a passing person can carry luggage along with him, while the function of the admittance control is maintained.To this end the turnstile device is characterized in that the arms extend substantially horizontally or at an angle upwards from the body. The appearance of the entry turnstile device may briefly be characterized as the known turnstile device turned 180°. However, for an optimised function of the turnstile device more is needed than merely rotating the known bi-directional turnstile device 180°. This will be discussed below.

In a further aspect, the it  is characterized in that the number of predetermined blockable positions of the body is at least equal the number of arms provided on the body. In this way the admission controlling function can be carried out adequately. In every blockable position of the body it is desirable for at least one of the arms to be set in a substantially horizontal position.

A further aspect is that in every blockable position of the body the non-horizontal arms extend at an angle upwards in a direction pointing away from the passage obstructed by the horizontally positioned arm. This configuration of the arms means that the turnstile device can be passed without problems even while carrying luggage, while in addition adequately reducing the danger of the person who passes through coming into sharp contact with the non-horizontal arms.

The detailed description of the turnstile device drawings

As further protection for persons passing through it is preferred for the free ends of the arms to be rounded-off. The invention will now be further elucidated with reference to the drawing, which
in Figure 1 shows a side view of the turnstile device
in Figure 2 shows a front view of the turnstile device
In Figure 3 a shows a top view of the turnstile device

Turnstile device

Identical parts in the figures are identified by the same reference numbers.

The access turnstile device 1 serves for the controlled admittance of persons 2 to a building or otherwise enclosed or guarded area.

The access controlled turnstile device l is constructed on a base3 in which a rotatable and blockable axis is mounted. This axis is not shown in the figures but is incorporated in the base 3 in a manner completely known to the person skilled in the art. On the said axis a body4 is mounted, which accordingly rotates with the axis (not shown) and knows blocked positions determined by the axis.

As shown in the figures, the body 4 is provided with at least three arms 5,6,7 extending from the body 4. These are mounted on the body4 in such a manner that when the body 4 is being turned to a predetermined blocking position, at least one arm, in the case illustrated arm 5, assumes a position that blocks the passage.

The figures clearly show that the arms 5, 6, 7 extend from the body 4 substantially horizontally, arm 5 or at an angle upwards, arms 6 and 7.

The predetermined blocked positions that the body 4 is able to assume must at least coincide with the number of arms provided on the body 4. In the case illustrated therefore, the body 4 must have at least three blocking positions, each separate blocking position corresponding with a substantially horizontal position of one of the arms. In the case illustrated this is arm 5. The other arms of the turnstile device 1 are at that moment in a position extending upwards at an angle, in a direction pointing away from the passage blocked by the horizontally positioned arm 5. This can be clearly seen in Figures2 and 3. A person2 with a luggage trolley or another item of luggage is thus able to pass the turnstile device 1 without any problems.

The figures further show that the arms 5,6,7 have a rounded-off free end 9,10,11, for the protection of the passing person.

Claims
1. A secure turnstile device suitable for the controlled admittance of persons to a building or to an otherwise enclosed or guarded area, comprising a body mounted on a rotatable and blockable axis, which body is provided with at least three arms extending from the body, the arms being oriented such that when rotation of the body is blocked, at least one of the arms is positioned to prevent passage, characterized in that the arms extend substantially horizontally or at an angle upwards from the body.
2. A turnstile system according to claim 1, characterised in that the number of predetermined blockable positions of the body is at least equal the number of arms provided on the body.
3. A path turnstile according to claim1 or 2, characterised in that in every blockable position of the body at least one of the arms is set in a substantially horizontal position.
4. A exit turnstile according to one of the claims 1-3, characterized in that in every blockable position of the body the non-horizontal arms extend at an angle upwards in a direction pointing away from the passage obstructed by the horizontally positioned arm.
5. A motorized turnstile according to one of the preceding claims, characterized in that the arms have a rounded-off free end.
