Abstract
The invention relates to a drive device () for entrance and exit devices for public transportation vehicles, comprising a drive unit () that is arranged in and drives a rotary column () rotating about a rotational axis Z-Z during opening and closing operations, said column opening and closing the entrance and exit device. The drive unit () is held on the vehicle via a retaining component (). The retaining component () acts as counter bearing for a torque of the drive unit (). Between the drive unit () and the retaining component (), a coupling device () is arranged, which enables a rotation of the drive unit () about the rotational axis Z-Z when a threshold value of the torque acting upon the drive unit is exceeded. Between the coupling device () and the retaining component (), a bearing is provided, which enables a tumbling motion of the rotary column () with the coupling device () and prevents a rotation about the rotational axis Z-Z.
