Access control apparatus
First Claim
1. A personal access control apparatus having a blocking device (1), which is activated by an actuator controlled via a control system, and having an authentication reader (7), wherein upon reading a valid access authorization the blocking device (1) is moved from the blocking position into the release position by actuating the actuator, characterized by a single passageway (3) for checking both walking persons and wheel chair users (15) or persons pushing prams, wherein is provided a sensor (13) for detecting a wheel chair (15) and/or pram in the area of the blocking device (1), which does not activate the actuator as to move the blocking device (1) from the release position into the blocking position until the wheel chair (15) or the pram has left its detection area, and a people sensor (11), which activates the actuator such that the blocking device (1) remains in the release position as long as a person is in the detection area (12) of the people sensor (11).

Abstract
An access control apparatus has a blocking device (1) that is actuated by an actuator, and an authentication reader (7), upon reading a valid access authorization the blocking device (1) moving into the release position. For detecting a wheel chair (15) and/or pram in the area of the blocking device (1) a sensor (13) is provided, which does not activate the actuator for moving the blocking device (1) from the release position into the blocking position until the wheel chair (15) or pram has left its detection area.
