  • Patent number: 10719678
    Abstract: A device for checking access authorizations stored on data carriers is provided, having a reading unit, arranged in the access region, for the data carrier, said reading unit actuating a signaling means and/or a blocking means, wherein the reading unit includes a housing having an insertion region for the data carrier and the insertion region having an upper first wall with a reading module sensing the insertion region, a lower second wall of the insertion region be fastened detachably and/or pivotably to the housing, that the reading unit can be changed from a first state to a second state in a predefinable manner by pivoting and/or removing the lower second wall, wherein in the first state of the reading unit, the second wall, together with the first wall, forms a U- or V-shaped insertion region and in the second state, the insertion region is L-shaped and open towards the bottom.

  • Patent number: 8827155
    Abstract: An access control gate with a mechanical guide forms one or more access lanes for patrons. A contactless access reader which is connected to a software controlled verification system identifies access right of patrons shortly before the person approaches a gate threshold formed by two motor driven flaps which when closed protrude into the access lane from left and right of the lateral lane boundaries. A verification system activates the flaps when an access right has been granted. Two or more photoelectric barriers define a detection zone behind the gate threshold and detect the passage of patrons through the gate threshold and the exit of the detection zone. The flaps are closed with highest possible speed after the patron has left the detection zone regularly, and are moved with low speed if an irregular passage is detected.

Two or more photoelectric barriers detect the passage of patrons through the gate threshold, wherein the detecting beams are spaced apart by between 1 and 10 inches and directed to the lane zone behind the gate threshold. The flaps are closed after the patron has passed through.

  • Patent number: 7513423
    Abstract: In a device for controlling access in a passage lane, particularly for controlling people, comprising a housing for receiving electronic components, particularly comprising a reader for tickets, the housing forming a lateral delimitation of the passage lane, it is suggested, for simple and rapid maintenance and putting into operation, that the housing have housing openings (3) directed toward the passage lane (2), the housing opening (3) be closable by covers (4), and at least two of the covers (4) be implemented as supports for electrical and/or mechanical modular components, particularly an identification module for tickets, a controller component for controlling an access control, a data transfer module for data exchange with further electrical and/or mechanical components, and/or a display module for displaying information, the particular modular components being positioned on an interior of the cover (4) implemented as a support, and being replaceable together with the cover (4).

  • Publication number: 20090032585
    Abstract: An access control gate with a mechanical guidance forms one or more access lanes for patrons. First electronic means include a contactless access reader which is connected to a software controlled verification system to identify the access right of patrons, second means comprise two motor driven flaps which protrude from left and right of the lateral lane boundaries into the access lane thereby forming the closed gate threshold 4. The contactless access reader is arranged to capture the access right of the approaching patron short before he approaches the gate threshold 4. The verification system 13 activates the flaps 7 and 7? when an access right has been approved to swing out of the lane A to indicate to the approaching patron the granted access right.
