Barrier for mopeds and bicycles

A barrier for selectively passing vehicles such as baby carriages of predetermined height or length while barring vehicles such as bicycles of differing height or greater length, comprising, in combination, two substantially U-shaped bows which are arranged substantially horizontally, one above the other, each bow having two legs, and a web fixedly interconnecting the two legs along one side and forming a substantially U-shaped rigid unit therewith, the legs being interconnected at their ends opposite the webs so that the bows are united in one piece;

• and the distance between the legs of one bow being greater than the distance between the legs of the other bow;
• a supporting pole mounting substantially U-shaped unit at the webs thereof with the substantially U-shaped unit spaced above the ground;
• and a second pole spaced from said supporting pole on the open side of said unit and embraced by the legs of the bows;
• the substantially U-shaped unit and the second pole defining therebetween an open passageway through the barrier, and compelling a vehicle seeking to pass through the passageway to pass on the inside of said second pole between the web and two legs, the distance between the two legs and web and said second pole being so selected as to permit the passage therethrough of vehicles such as baby carriages of a predetermined height or length, while preventing passage therethrough of vehicles such as bicycles of differing height or lesser length.
