[0002] Many rainwater wells and some sewage wells are set up under the road. The wellheads are usually covered with manhole covers on the road surface. At this time, the height of the manhole cover is required to be consistent with the height of the road surface, otherwise it will affect the normal passage of vehicles when vehicles pass by.

[0003] When installing the manhole cover, the manhole cover will be installed after the road surface is paved once. At this time, the upper surface of the installed manhole cover will be slightly higher than the existing road surface. When the road surface is paved next time, the road surface and the upper surface of the manhole cover will be kept consistent. During the installation of the manhole cover, the staff needs to measure the manhole cover at multiple positions to ensure that the installation height of the manhole cover meets the requirements, which makes the installation process of the manhole cover complicated and affects the installation efficiency of the manhole cover. Summary of the Invention

[0029] To make the above-mentioned objects, features, and advantages of the present invention more readily apparent, specific embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. The following description sets forth numerous specific details to facilitate a full understanding of the present invention. However, the present invention can be implemented in many other ways than those described herein, and those skilled in the art may make similar modifications without departing from the scope of the present invention. Therefore, the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.

[0030] like Figure 1 、 Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, an automatic installation device and process for a manhole cover include a movable base 3 for moving the position during the installation process. The movable base 3 consists of a base and lockable running wheels.

[0031] A placement cylinder 1 for loading the manhole covers to be installed and a transmission mechanism 4 for transferring the manhole covers one by one, the upper surface of the movable base 3 is provided with the transmission mechanism 4, the left side of the upper surface of the transmission mechanism 4 is fixedly connected with the placement cylinder 1, and the height between the lower surface of the placement cylinder 1 and the upper surface of the transmission mechanism 4 is the same as the common height of a manhole cover and a gasket.

[0032] An installation component 2 for adsorbing and installing the manhole cover is provided on the right side of the upper surface of the transmission mechanism 4.

[0033] like Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, the installation component 2 includes a moving part 21 for adjusting the position, a driving part 22 for cooperating with the adsorption of the manhole cover is provided on the moving part 21, an adsorption part 23 for adsorbing the manhole cover is provided at the bottom end of the driving part 22, and a detection part 24 for detecting whether the installation position of the manhole cover is horizontal is provided on the inner side of the driving part 22.

[0034] like Figure 2As shown, the transmission mechanism 4 includes two front-to-back symmetrical fixed plates 41 fixedly connected to the upper surface of the movable base 3, a conveying member 42 is arranged between the opposite surfaces of the two fixed plates 41, and the right sides of the two fixed plates 41 are fixedly connected to a limiting baffle 43, and the bottom end of the limiting baffle 43 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the movable base 3.

[0035] like Figure 1 As shown, the moving member 21 includes a support frame 211 fixedly connected to two fixed plates 41. The support frame 211 is composed of support legs and a sliding frame. The sliding frame on the support frame 211 is slidably connected to an electric displacement seat 212.

[0036] like Figure 3 As shown, the driving member 22 includes a first fixing frame 221 fixedly connected to the lower surface of the electric displacement seat 212, and four first electric push rods 222 are fixedly connected to the first fixing frame 221 in a circular array. The four driving members 22 are commonly fixedly connected to a second fixing frame 223 located below the first fixing frame 221.

[0037] like Figure 3 and Figure 5 As shown, the adsorption part 23 includes an electromagnet adsorption disk 231 to which the telescopic ends of four first electric push rods 222 are fixedly connected. Four connecting ears are arranged in a circular array on the circumferential surface of the electromagnet adsorption disk 231. A connecting rod 233 is slidably connected to the connecting ear. A connecting spring is arranged between the connecting rod 233 and the connecting ear. The lower surface of the connecting rod 233 is fixedly connected to a ramp block 232.

[0038] like Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the detection component 24 includes a second electric push rod 241 fixedly connected to the upper surface of the second fixed frame 223, the telescopic end of the second electric push rod 241 is fixedly connected to a cross-shaped connecting frame 242, each section of the cross-shaped connecting frame 242 is clamped with an adjusting slide 243, the lower surface of the adjusting slide 243 is fixedly connected to a distance sensor 244, and the upper surface of the adjusting slide 243 is provided with an indicator light 245 for feedback of the sensing effect of the distance sensor 244, and the electromagnet adsorption plate 231 is provided with a cross groove corresponding to the cross-shaped connecting frame 242.

[0039] The manhole cover can be installed conveniently through the setting of the installation component 2. At the same time, the installation position of the manhole cover can be tested immediately after the installation to check whether the overall installation position of the manhole cover is horizontal and whether the height difference between the upper surface of the manhole cover and the road surface meets the requirements. The test results are fed back in time so that the staff can make adjustments more quickly.

[0040] During specific use, the manhole covers are first filled and transported. The manhole covers are placed one by one into the placement cylinder 1 through external lifting equipment, and wooden gaskets are placed between two adjacent manhole covers to prevent the two adjacent manhole covers from being stuck together, which is convenient for subsequent unloading. The first manhole cover placed into the placement cylinder 1 will be placed on the conveying member 42. The intermittently rotating conveying member 42 will move the manhole cover under the placement cylinder 1 to the bottom of the electromagnet adsorption disk 231, and then the conveying member 42 stops rotating. Wait until the electromagnet adsorption disk 231 is below. After the manhole cover is installed, when the next manhole cover is installed, the conveying member 42 rotates again to drive the next manhole cover to move to the bottom of the electromagnet adsorption disk 231. At this time, when the wooden gasket of the previous manhole cover is transported again by the conveying member 42, as the conveying member 42 moves to the right, when it contacts the conveying member 42, the conveying member 42 cooperates with the limit baffle 43 to recycle the wooden gasket between the lower surface of the conveying member 42 and the upper surface of the movable base 3, so that it can be used when loading the manhole cover inside the placement tube 1 next time.

[0041] After the manhole cover is transported to the bottom of the electromagnet adsorption disk 231, the installation of the manhole cover begins. First, the first electric push rod 222 is extended to push the electromagnet adsorption disk 231 closer to the manhole cover. At this time, the inclined block 232 on the electromagnet adsorption disk 231 first contacts the manhole cover. Since the inclined block 232 is an inclined surface, with the cooperation of the four inclined blocks 232, when contacting the manhole cover, as the electromagnet adsorption disk 231 continues to descend, the position of the manhole cover can be calibrated so that the manhole cover is aligned with the center position of the electromagnet adsorption disk 231. Then the electromagnet adsorption disk 231 is energized to adsorb the manhole cover. At this time, the first electric push rod 222 contracts to lift the manhole cover, and then the electric displacement seat 212 drives the driving member 22 to move forward. After moving to above the installation position, the first electric push rod 222 is extended to place the manhole cover inside the installation position.

[0042] After the manhole cover is installed at the installation position, the position of the manhole cover after installation is detected to detect whether the installation position of the manhole cover is horizontal and whether the height difference between the upper surface of the manhole cover and the road surface meets the requirements. First, the position of the adjustment slide 243 on the cross-shaped connecting frame 242 is adjusted to avoid the distance sensor 244 from being located at the raised position on the manhole cover during detection to ensure the accuracy of the detection result. Then, the second electric push rod 241 is extended to push the cross-shaped connecting frame 242 downward, and the cross-shaped connecting frame 242 is first passed through the cross slot on the electromagnet adsorption disk 231. When the distance sensor 244 approaches the manhole cover to the specified position, if the four indicator lights 245 light up at the same time, it means that the four corresponding distance sensors 244 reach the critical value at the same time. At this time, the installation position of the manhole cover meets the requirements. If the distance sensor 244 approaches the manhole cover to the specified position, some indicator lights 245 do not light up, which means that the installation height of the corresponding position of the manhole cover is less than the specified height difference between the manhole cover and the ground. If a certain indicator light 245 lights up during the approach of the distance sensor 244, it means that the position of the manhole cover corresponding to this indicator light 245 is too high, and the staff should adjust the position of the manhole cover in time.

[0043] The distance sensor 244 is electrically connected to the controller through a wire, the controller is electrically connected to the indicator light 245 through a wire, the controller is electrically connected to the external power supply through a wire, and the distance sensor 244 is electrically connected to the external power supply through a wire. When working, the distance sensor 244 senses the distance. When the critical value is reached, the distance sensor 244 controls the indicator light 245 through the controller to light up as a prompt.

[0044] like Figure 1 As shown, an automatic installation device for manhole covers, the operating process of installing manhole covers when using the above-mentioned automatic installation device for manhole covers includes the following steps: S1, first, the manhole covers are placed one by one into the interior of the placement cylinder 1 through external lifting equipment and wooden gaskets are placed between two adjacent manhole covers so that the two adjacent manhole covers will not be stuck together, which is convenient for subsequent unloading. The first manhole cover placed into the interior of the placement cylinder 1 will be placed on the transmission mechanism 4.

[0045] S2. Then, the movable base 3 is moved to the installation position of the manhole cover. After moving to the installation position, the lockable running wheels on the movable base 3 are locked to keep the movable base 3 fixed at the installation position.

[0046] S3. The transmission mechanism 4 is then intermittently rotated to transport the manhole cover under the placement cylinder 1 to the bottom of the installation assembly 2. After the transmission mechanism 4 transports the manhole cover under the placement cylinder 1 away and the manhole cover is completely away from the bottom of the placement cylinder 1, the manhole cover inside the placement cylinder 1 will fall back onto the transmission mechanism 4.

[0047] S4. When the manhole cover is transported to the bottom of the installation assembly 2, the driving member 22 and the adsorption member 23 cooperate to clamp the manhole cover from the transmission mechanism 4, and then the moving member 21 moves the manhole cover to above the installation position. After the manhole cover is installed at the installation position, the detection member 24 is used to check whether the installation height of the manhole cover is qualified. If the height is qualified, the manhole cover can be fixed. If the height is unqualified, it will be readjusted according to the unqualified position.

[0048] Working principle: First, the manhole covers are placed one by one into the interior of the placement cylinder 1 through external lifting equipment, and wooden gaskets are placed between two adjacent manhole covers to prevent the two adjacent manhole covers from being stuck together, which is convenient for subsequent unloading. The first manhole cover placed into the placement cylinder 1 will be placed on the transmission mechanism 4, and then moved to the installation position of the manhole cover through the movable base 3. After moving to the installation position, the lockable walking wheels on the movable base 3 are locked to keep the movable base 3 fixed at the installation position. Then, the manhole cover under the placement cylinder 1 is transported to the installation assembly through intermittent rotation of the transmission mechanism 4. 2, after the transmission mechanism 4 transports the manhole cover under the placement cylinder 1 away and the manhole cover is completely away from the bottom of the placement cylinder 1, the manhole cover inside the placement cylinder 1 will fall back on the transmission mechanism 4. When the manhole cover is transported to the bottom of the installation assembly 2, the driving member 22 and the adsorption member 23 cooperate to clamp the manhole cover from the transmission mechanism 4, and then the moving member 21 moves the manhole cover to the top of the installation position. After the manhole cover is installed in the installation position, the detection member 24 is used to check whether the installation height of the manhole cover is qualified. If the height is qualified, the manhole cover can be fixed. If the height is unqualified, it will be readjusted according to the unqualified position.
