A multiple direction railroad gate release mechanism which is attached between the mount arms of a railroad gate actuator and a crossing arm to prevent breakage of the crossing arm due to impingement in either a frontal or rearward direction by a vehicle or other outside force. A pivot arm assembly allows a released movement of the crossing arm in reaction to frontal impingement and returns the crossing arm to the original and detent position subsequent to an impingement in order to maintain grade crossing protection. A spring return assembly, a shock absorber, and a detent plunger act to return the pivot arm assembly and attached crossing arm to a neutral detent position. The pivot arm assembly allows for rotation about a single pivot point of at least /90 degrees relative to the longitudinal axis of the attached crossing arm.

Ground-based barrier systems are described for permitting or inhibiting vehicle passage, and capturing unauthorized vehicles. One example of the present technology is directed to a ground-based vehicle barrier system, comprising a bollard movable between a recessed position permitting vehicle passage and an extended position inhibiting vehicle passage. A link is connected to or formed as part of the bollard. The link is extending transverse to the bollard. The ground-based vehicle barrier system further comprises a drive connected to a connection point of the link and configured to selectively move the bollard in the recessed and extended positions.

A barricade includes a foundation frame, a finger wedge barrier, a hinge hingedly coupling the finger wedge barrier to the foundation frame, and an actuator mechanism coupled to the foundation frame and the finger wedge barrier. The finger wedge barrier is configured to rotate about the hinge between a stowed configuration and a deployed configuration, and the actuator mechanism is configured to rotate the finger wedge barrier between the stowed configuration and the deployed configuration. The actuator mechanism includes an actuator comprising a housing and a rod configured to reciprocally move in the housing, a first linkage having a first end rotatably coupled to the rod and a second end rotatably coupled to the finger wedge barrier, and a second linkage having a first end rotatably coupled to the rod and a second end rotatably coupled to the foundation frame.

The present invention relates to a parking prevention device, a mobile terminal, and a parking prevention system having the same. A parking prevention device according to one embodiment of the present invention comprises: a rotary shaft arranged in a main body; a parking lock member which is connected to the rotary shaft and rotates; a parking lock operation unit for operating the rotary shaft for rotating the parking lock member; a communication unit for exchanging data with a repeater or a server; and a processor which controls the parking lock member to operate in a parking lock mode and, on the basis of a parking lock cancellation signal received from the repeater or the server, to controls the parking lock member to operate in a parking lock cancellation mode. Hence, the present invention can prevent an unpermitted parking and allow a permitted vehicle to park.

The present invention relates to an access control system for controlling access to an area secured by perimeter protection defining a secure perimeter. The access control system comprises a portable container configured to be stored, transported and installed repeatedly as a closed container. The portable container is further configured to be operated repeatedly as an open container and closed container with a permanent barrier section constituted by the portable container itself and configured to secure a perimeter. Furthermore the access control system comprises at least one operational barrier section configured to be operational in an open state to allow access through the secure perimeter to the area and in a closed state to block access through the secure perimeter to the area. The operational barrier section is configured to be fully contained within the closed container when not installed. Additionally, the operational barrier section is configured to operate outside of the portable container in either open state or closed state and to change between open state and closed state.
