Generally, a hollow and airtight stainless steel pipe is used, which is not easy to be deformed, and can be blocked and released after rotation. Tripod turnstiles is an early type of turnstile, and it has developed into a mature and perfect type, but it has a tendency to be gradually replaced by subsequent swing turnstiles and wing turnstiles. From the movement control method, it is divided into mechanical type, semi-automatic type and fully automatic type. In terms of shape, it is divided into vertical type and bridge type. Vertical tripod turnstiles are smaller in size and relatively simple devices; bridge tripod turnstiles have longer channels and higher security.
