Vehicle passage control device

Abstract

Disclosed is a vehicle passage control device capable of suppressing damage and breakage of an opening/closing bar thereof to the minimum, and suppressing damage and the like of a vehicle to the minimum even if the vehicle collides with the opening/closing bar. The vehicle passage control device is a vehicle passage control device in which an opening/closing bar 12 that regulates passage of a vehicle is provided, the vehicle passage control device being installed at a passage gate of an entrance or exit of a toll road or the like. The vehicle passage control device performs opening/closing control for the opening/closing bar 12 to rotationally move and upspring obliquely upward in front in a passing direction of the vehicle. An inclined angle θ at which the opening/closing bar 12 rotationally moves and upsprings obliquely upward remains within a range from approximately 25 degrees to approximately 55 degrees with respect to a road surface. A vehicle sensing sensor that senses a vehicle approaching a front of the opening/closing bar 12 is provided, and an instruction to open the opening/closing bar 12 is issued when the vehicle is sensed by the vehicle sensing sensor. When a predetermined load or more is applied to the opening/closing bar 12 , an instruction to perform an opening operation is issued to the opening/closing bar 12.

1 . A vehicle passage control device in which an opening/closing bar that regulates passage of a vehicle is provided, the vehicle passage control device being installed at a passage gate of an entrance or exit of a toll road or the like,
 characterized in that the vehicle passage control device performs opening/closing control for the opening/closing bar to rotationally move and upspring obliquely upward in front in a passing direction of the vehicle.   
     
     
         2 . The vehicle passage control device according to  claim 1 , wherein an inclined angle at which the opening/closing bar rotationally moves and upsprings obliquely upward remains within a range from approximately 25 degrees to approximately 55 degrees with respect to a road surface. 
     
     
         3 . The vehicle passage control device according to  claim 1  or  2 , wherein a vehicle sensing sensor that senses a vehicle approaching a front of the opening/closing bar is provided, and the opening/closing bar is opened when the vehicle is sensed by the vehicle sensing sensor. 
     
     
         4 . The vehicle passage control device according to  claim 1 , wherein the opening/closing bar is opened when a predetermined load or more is applied to the opening/closing bar. 
     
     
         5 . The vehicle passage control device according to  claim 1 , wherein the vehicle passage control device includes a right and left pair of vehicle passage control devices, opening/closing bars thereof are opened to both right and left sides, the opening/closing bar of one of the devices performs an opening operation and maintains an open state in a case where the one of the devices fails, and vehicle passage control is configured to be enabled by an operation of only the opening/closing bar of other of the devices. 
     
     
         6 . The vehicle passage control device according to  claim 1 , wherein the opening/closing bar has a substantially circular shape in cross section, and on a surface thereof, two types of paint different in color are alternately applied in a spiral fashion.
