Personnel sluice gate for cyclic release of passage of person, has rails, where each rail is movable independent of other rail on closed path between locking position locking passage at locking point and opening position releasing passage

摘要

The gate has two locking rails (12, 14), where each rail is movable independent of the other rail on a closed path between a locking position that locks a passage at a locking point and an opening position that releases the passage. The rails are arranged on supports (18, 20) and have a common rotation axis, where one support is rotated relative to the other support around the axis by a motor controlled using a controlling unit. An independent claim is also included for a method of controlling a turnstile of a personnel sluice gate.
