Abstract

Abstract A passage (1) with monitored authorization of access is provided with a closure device using a barrier (2) hinged about a vertical axis γ. The passage includes at least one such barrier (2) with an end thereof situated adjacent to the vertical axis γ. Rectilinear guides (6 to 9) guide the axis γ along a line Δ parallel to the through direction of the passage. The barrier is further provided with a hinged link (4) which is hinged firstly about a vertical axis γ 1 situated along the barrier (2), and secondly about a vertical axis γ 2 situated in the vicinity of the line Δ. A drive system (10 to 13, 22 to 24) opens and closes the passage by causing the vertical axis γ to slide along the line Δ. The vertical axis γ is situated at a distance l from the line Δ. The length of the barrier (2) between the vertical axis γ and the vertical axis γ.sub. 1 is equal to L. The passage is characterized in that the length L 1 of the link (4) between the axes γ 1 and γ 2 is equal to L-∫, and in that the vertical axis γ 2 is tied to a carrier (15) supporting the hinge of the link (4). Further, the drive system (16 to 18) enables the carriage (15) to be displaced in a direction parallel to the line γ. Locks (19, 21) are provided for locking the carriage in two distinct positions along the stroke of the carriage (15).

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 4
Claim 1
Independent Claim 259 words
A passage (1) having monitored authorization of access provided with a closure device using a barrier (2) hinged about a vertical axis γ, said passage including at least one such barrier (2) with the end thereof situated adjacent to said vertical axis γ including rectilinear guide means (6 to 9) for guiding said axis γ along a line Δ parallel to the through direction of said passage, said barrier further being provided with a hinged link (4) which is hinged firstly about a vertical axis γ 1 situated along said barrier (2), and secondly about a vertical axis γ 2 situated in he vicinity of said line Δ, drive means (10 to 13, 22 to 24) opening and closing said passage by causing said vertical axis γ to slide along said line Δ, said vertical axis γ 2 being situated at a distance l from said line Δ, the length of said barrier (2) between the vertical axis γ and the vertical axis γ 1 being equal to L, the passage being characterized in that the length L 1 of said link (4) between the axies γ 1 and γ 2 is equal to L-l, in that the vertical axis γ 2 is tied to a carriage (15) supporting the hinge of said link (4), and in that drive means (16 to 18) enable said carrier (15) to be displaced in a direction parallel to said line γ, locking means (19, 21) being provided for locking said carriage in two distinct positions along the stroke of the carriage (15).
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 259 words
A passage (1) having monitored authorization of access provided with a closure device using a barrier (2) hinged about a vertical axis γ, said passage including at least one such barrier (2) with the end thereof situated adjacent to said vertical axis γ including rectilinear guide means (6 to 9) for guiding said axis γ along a line Δ parallel to the through direction of said passage, said barrier further being provided with a hinged link (4) which is hinged firstly about a vertical axis γ 1 situated along said barrier (2), and secondly about a vertical axis γ 2 situated in he vicinity of said line Δ, drive means (10 to 13, 22 to 24) opening and closing said passage by causing said vertical axis γ to slide along said line Δ, said vertical axis γ 2 being situated at a distance l from said line Δ, the length of said barrier (2) between the vertical axis γ and the vertical axis γ 1 being equal to L, the passage being characterized in that the length L 1 of said link (4) between the axies γ 1 and γ 2 is equal to L-l, in that the vertical axis γ 2 is tied to a carriage (15) supporting the hinge of said link (4), and in that drive means (16 to 18) enable said carrier (15) to be displaced in a direction parallel to said line γ, locking means (19, 21) being provided for locking said carriage in two distinct positions along the stroke of the carriage (15).
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 31 words
A passage having monitored authorization of access according to claim 1, characterized in that said drive means (10 to 13) act directly in traction on the sliding end of said barrier.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 42 words
A passage having monitored authorization of access according to claim 1, characterized in that said drive means (22 to 24) cause said link to rotate about its vertical axis γ 2 ,thereby indirectly causing the sliding end of said barrier to slide.
