turnstile

 noun


Definitions

  1. The turnstile consists of a vertical, rotatable post with one or more coil-carrying arms extending from it. It is used for both storing and moving coils. Coils are slid over the outstretched arm or arms, so they are safely supported and unable to tip over while the turnstile is rotated.
