The force indicated by the arrow b direction to be generated is generated, and the shaft portion 18 moves rightward in the groove 20 by the force in the arrow a direction. The movement of the shaft portion 18 generates a force indicated by the arrow c direction with respect to the support shaft 16 a of the first link rod 16. The arrow c direction forces, the support shaft 14 relative to the outer flaps f ₁ (FIG. 6 (a), (b) refer) generates a positive rotation direction of the force around the. In this way, the outer flap f ₁ is also gradually rotated in the forward rotation direction in accordance with the movement of the inner flap f ₂ .

FIG. 10A shows the middle of the above-described normal rotation. Further, FIG. 10 (b), and shows when the drive shaft 11a connecting to the rotation shaft of the motor 11 is rotated forward the inner flaps f ₂ to the position of the final stage, corresponds to the state of FIG. 6 (b) is doing. Although omitted in FIGS. 6A and 6B for the sake of simplification, the frame 10 facing the lower side of the inner flap f ₂ is positioned at the position shown in FIG. with stops for the flap f ₂ is prevented from further forward rotation is provided, on the frame 10 facing the lower side of the inner flaps f _2, the inner flap at a position of FIG. 6 (a) f ₂ Is provided with a stopper for preventing further reverse rotation (counterclockwise rotation in FIGS. 6A and 6B). Although not shown in FIGS. 6A and 6B, the inner flap f _{2 is shown on} the lower side of the inner flap f ₂ when the motor 11 is turned off. A spring member that can automatically return to the state shown in FIG. This spring member can be constituted by a coil spring wound around the support shaft 14. Therefore, the motor 11 has a force for rotating the inner flap f ₂ in the forward direction against the force of the spring member.

As described above, the flaps F ₁ and F ₂ that protrude toward the ticket gate passage P and prevent the user from passing through the ticket gate passage P are touched by the antenna A when a valid non-contact type IC card is touched. Or if the automatic ticket gate G is set for participation and a non-contact type IC card as an effective short-term ticket that is collected and used repeatedly like a regular ticket is inserted into the slot, F ₁ starts to be stored in the housing H ₁ , and the flap F ₂ starts to be stored in the housing H ₂ . Closing operation and closing operation the flap F ₂ of the housing H ₂ side flaps F ₁ of the housing H ₁ side, since only operate symmetrically, will be described here only flap F _1.
