Boom barrier definition:
The boom barrier(also called a boom gate) is a device specifically designed for managing the entry and exit of motor vehicles on roads. It is widely used in highway toll stations and parking lot systems to manage vehicle access and manage the entry and exit of vehicles. The main function of a boom barrier gate is to restrict the passage of vehicles and ensure that only authorized vehicles can enter and exit.
The boom barrier gate can be independently controlled by wireless remote control to achieve landing rods, or it can be automatically managed through the parking lot management system (i.e. IC card swiping management system). Vehicles can be released upon entry for card collection, and upon exit, parking fees will be charged and the vehicles will be automatically released.
The boom barrier gate adopts a special power outage manual and automatic pole lifting device, so that even in the event of a power outage, the boom gate barrier can be manually lifted without affecting the normal passage of vehicles. At the same time, the boom barrier gate has multiple control methods, supporting line control, remote control, communication protocol, and other control methods. Therefore, parking lot management personnel can use remote control to lift the barrier gate pole directly inside the booth.
Boom barrier component:
The boom gate is composed of a chassis, a chip, a motor, a control system, a force-balancing device, a gearbox, an electrical control unit, and a gate rod.
The basic structure of a boom gate barrier consists of the following main parts:
1. Chassis section: usually made of metal materials, responsible for carrying and supporting the entire barrier equipment.
2. Motor and transmission device: responsible for providing power and controlling the lifting motion of the gate.
3. Barrier arm: composed of straight rods, fence rods, or panels, used to block the entry and exit of vehicles.
4. Control system: including electrical control devices, sensors, controllers, etc., used to sense the entry and exit of vehicles and control the operation of boom gates.
Types of boom barrier:
According to the different boom gate rods, boom gates are divided into: straight rod boom barrier, folding rod boom barrier and fence boom barriers.
1. The straight rod boom gate barrier is the one we use the most, and it is commonly used in ground level parking lots, suitable for general parking lots such as residential communities, stations, hospitals, etc.
2. Folding rod boom gate is used in parking lots that require a certain height for takeoff and landing, such as underground parking lots. Ordinary straight rod boom gates are not suitable, and in this case, folding rod boom gates are needed.
3. Fence boom gates are suitable for some specialized parking lots with high management requirements, with the aim of preventing pedestrians from passing through car passages. Fence boom gates can be divided into single-layer fence boom gates and double-layer fence boom gates, and can be purchased according to specific circumstances.

Working principle:
The boom barrier gate senses the position of the vehicle through sensors, and then controls the motor to rotate to lift and lower the rod. The working principle of the boom barrier gate mainly involves the following aspects:
1. Electric drive system: The opening and closing of the boom gate mainly rely on the electric drive system. By using motors, reducers, and transmission devices, electrical energy is converted into mechanical energy to achieve the lifting and lowering of the gate rod.
2. Control system: The control system of the boom gate barrier is its core part, mainly including sensors, controllers, and actuators. Sensors can sense the approach of vehicles or personnel and transmit signals to the controller. The controller determines whether to open or close the gate based on the received signal, and controls the operation of the electric drive system. The actuator controls the rise and fall of the barrier gate according to the instructions of the controller.
3. Safety protection system: The safety protection system of the boom barrier gate is designed to prevent accidents and protect the stable operation of the equipment itself. Common security protection systems include infrared sensors, license plate recognition systems, facial recognition systems, etc., which can achieve recognition and monitoring of vehicles and personnel.
4. Remote management system: With the development of Internet of Things technology, boom barrier gates are becoming increasingly intelligent. Through the remote management system, remote monitoring, troubleshooting, and setting adjustment of the boom barrier gate can be achieved, improving the convenience and efficiency of management.
