Abstract
A self-contained automatic gate system is disclosed wherein all system components are built into the gate system itself thereby allowing the user to simply provide a footing for mounting the system and then mounting it with no need for further assembly.
Claims15
A gate having spaced apart front and rear sides, integral proximal and distal end walls separating said sides and an internal wall spaced from said proximal end wall, said front and rear sides and said proximal and internal walls defining a gate post housing, a gate post having an upper end and a lower end extending along vertical axis within said gate post housing, means for supporting said gate on said gate post for pivotal movement about said vertical axis of said gate post, said gate supporting means including a gate actuator having a mounting plate and a rotational body, said mounting plate comprising means secured to one of said ends of said gate post within said gate post housing for mounting said gate actuator on said gate post, said rotational body of said gate actuator including means for rotating said rotational body about said vertical axis of said gate post, means connecting said rotational body and said gate post housing for supporting said gate on said gate actuator and for rotating said gate about said gate post, said spaced apart front and rear sides defining area means remote from said gate post housing for supporting operating components of said gate.
A gate having spaced apart front and rear sides and integral proximal and distal walls separating said sides, said front and rear sides and said integral proximal and distal walls defining area means for housing operating components for said gate, a gate post, having an upper end and a lower end extending between said sides along a vertical axis, means for supporting said gate upon said gate post between said sides for rotation of said gate about said vertical axis of said post, means at said lower end of said post for securing said post to a footing, a gate actuator secured to said upper end of said gate post between said sides and including means for rotating about said vertical axis of said gate post, and means connecting said rotating means and at least one of said sides and said walls for supporting said gate on said gate actuator and for pivoting said gate about said gate post.
