摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a method for avoiding passer-by's stay within a railroad crossing for enabling a passer-by to easily and surely get out of a railroad crossing in a short time even if the passer-by is left behind within the railroad crossing with a crossing bar lowered down, and to provide a crossing gate device provided with such a function.SOLUTION: In the method for avoiding a passer-by's stay within a railroad crossing in a railroad crossing with a crossing bar 1 turnable by a turn driving device 2, when a passer-by is left behind within a railroad crossing, an operation command of a stay avoidance function is issued to the turn driving device 2, the turn driving device 2 turns the crossing bar 1 downward according to the operation command, and folds a front part 1b of the crossing bar 1 so that the passer-by can get out of the railroad crossing in this way.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 4
