Abstract

The present disclosure provides an anti-collision barrier gate arm including an arm, an arm holder, and a switching head configured to repeatedly switch between a separation state and a reset state, where the arm is connected to the arm holder through the switching head. The present disclosure has the beneficial effects that: an anti-collision barrier gate arm is provided; the switching head is additionally arranged between the arm and the arm holder; when the arm is subjected to a collision, the switching head can enter a separation state to provide a movement space for the arm so as avoiding damaging to the arm; and the switching head can quickly switch to a reset state, such that the arm can work normally again, helping to guarantee normal access of a parking lot.

Claims (29)

1. An anti-collision barrier gate arm, comprising an arm, an arm holder, and a switching head configured to repeatedly switch between a separation state and a reset state, wherein the arm is connected to the arm holder through the switching head;

the switching head comprises a first part and a second part;

when the switching head is in the reset state, the first part is connected to the second part;

when the switching head is in the separation state, the first part is separated from the second part;

the first part is rotationally connected to the arm holder;

the first part is fixedly connected to the arm;

the second part is fixedly connected to the arm holder;

the first part comprises a first base, the first base is fixedly connected to the arm;

the second part comprises a second base, the second base is fixedly connected to the arm holder; and

the first base and the second base are snap-fitted;

the arm holder is provided with a cutoff slot for increasing a deformation space for the arm holder.

2. The anti-collision barrier gate arm according to claim 1 , wherein the second base is provided with a clamping slot, the first base is provided with an insert, and the insert is clamped into the clamping slot.

3. The anti-collision barrier gate arm according to claim 2 , wherein the clamping slot is arc-shaped, and the insert is arc-shaped.

4. The anti-collision barrier gate arm according to claim 2 , wherein the clamping slot is C-shaped, and the insert is elliptical.

5. The anti-collision barrier gate arm according to claim 2 , wherein the second base is made of deformable material.

6. The anti-collision barrier gate arm according to claim 2 , wherein the second base is made of plastic.

7. The anti-collision barrier gate arm according to claim 2 , wherein the first base is made of metal.

8. The anti-collision barrier gate arm according to claim 2 , wherein the arm holder is made of metal.

9. The anti-collision barrier gate arm according to claim 1 , wherein the first base is rotationally connected to the arm holder.

10. The anti-collision barrier gate arm according to claim 9 , wherein the first base is rotationally connected to the arm holder through a rotating shaft.

11. The anti-collision barrier gate arm according to claim 10 , wherein the rotating shaft comprises a bolt and a nut, and the bolt is connected to the nut after passing through a rotating hole in the arm holder and a rotating hole in the first base.

12. The anti-collision barrier gate arm according to claim 10 , wherein the rotating shaft comprises an anti-wear gasket, and the anti-wear gasket is installed between the first base and the arm holder for separating them.

13. The anti-collision barrier gate arm according to claim 1 , wherein the arm holder comprises a base plate and side plates located on two sides of the base plate, and the side plates are each provided with a cutoff slot, wherein the base plate and side plates enclose an installing groove, and the second base is installed in the installing groove.

14. The anti-collision barrier gate arm according to claim 1 , wherein the cutoff slot divides the arm holder into a front part and a rear part in a length direction, the second base is fixed to the front part, and the first base is rotationally connected to the rear part.

15. The anti-collision barrier gate arm according to claim 1 , wherein the first part comprises an upper clamping plate, the first base is provided with a lower clamping plate, and the arm is clamped between the upper clamping plate and the lower clamping plate.

16. The anti-collision barrier gate arm according to claim 15 , wherein the upper clamping plate and the lower clamping plate are arc-shaped.

17. The anti-collision barrier gate arm according to claim 15 , wherein the upper clamping plate, the arm, and the lower clamping plate are fixedly connected through a bolt and a nut.

18. The anti-collision barrier gate arm according to claim 1 , wherein the arm holder is provided with an angle limiting structure that limits the rotation angle of the first base.

19. The anti-collision barrier gate arm according to claim 18 , wherein the angle limiting structure is a baffle, and when the first base rotates to a set angle around the arm holder, the first base stops rotating.
