  • Patent number: 6724304
    Abstract: A security entrance system for controlling access from an infeed area (98) to a protected area (100) has a structure (24) defining a chamber disposed between the infeed area, the protected area and a temporary containment area (201), with a first door (38) at the infeed area portion of the chamber, a second door (46) at the protected area portion of the chamber, and a third door (47) at the temporary containment area portion of the chamber. A person entering the protected area must pass through a contraband detector such as a metal detector (90,92) and enter the chamber. If no alarm was provided by the detector, the doors allow exit from the chamber into the protected area. If an alarm was provided by the metal detector, the doors only allow the person to enter the temporary containment area. The chamber is weighed or otherwise examined after at least some cycles of operation to assure that no contraband was concealed within the chamber.

  • Patent number: 4843761
    Abstract: A revolving door assembly includes a pair of part-cylindrical wall portions partly surrounding the rotational path of a revolving door and partly defining a passage. Pairs of part-cylindrical wall panels are provided in association with the part-cylindrical wall portions, such wall panels being movable along paths concentric with the rotational path of the revolving door and being adapted to close and open the passage substantially in syncronism with the continuous rotation of the revolving door. Thereby passage will remain checked during such rotation, alternatingly by the revolving door alone and by the door in cooperation with the wall panels of each pair, whereby a draft-free passage will be maintained.
