Mechanical System
The mechanical system of the tripod turnstile includes the chassis and the core component. The
chassis is a carrier where the Direction indicator, Reader, QR code scanner, Fingerprint sensor and
the Door lock are installed. The core component mainly consists of the Frame, Bearing, and Arm.
Electronic Control System
The electronic control system of a tripod turnstile is mainly composed of the Card
Reader/Fingerprint sensor/QR code, Turnstile control board and Direction Indicator.
Reader:
The reader reads the data in the card and sends it to the Access Controller.
Fingerprint sensor:
The device compares the fingerprint that is being pressed onto the fingerprint
sensor with all the fingerprint data and sends it to the Access Controller.
QR code sensor:
The sensor compares the acquired QR code with all QR code data registered in the
device and sends it to the Access Controller.
Turnstile control board:
The turnstile control board is the system’s control center that receives
signals from the reader and the photoelectric switch performs logical calculation and processing of
these signals and sends executive commands to the Direction indicator and arm.
Direction Indicator:
This indicator displays the pedestrian passage path and directs them to pass
through the lane in a safe and orderly manner.
Working Principle
1.
After powering on to the device, the system performs the Power-On Self-Test.
2.
When a valid Card/Fingerprint/QR code is detected, the buzzer will give a positive audible
prompt to the pedestrian, indicating that successfully verified. And then, the reader sends
signals to the Access Controller to request permission to pass through the passage. The Access
Controller will send the signal to the master control panel.
3.
After receiving the signal from the Access Controller, the turnstile control board sends valid
control signals to the direction indicator and the arm. At last the direction arrow turns green.
4.
Pedestrians according to the directional signs, gently push the unlocked arm, the arm will
automatically rotate until the pedestrian through the channel.
5.
If the pedestrian enters the passage but forgets to verify identification, or if the card
held/fingerprint/QR code by the pedestrian is invalid, the system does not allow pass. The
pedestrian can pass through the passage only after a valid card/fingerprint/QR code is
successfully verified.
