[0002] Manhole covers are very important as the entrance to underground pipelines. Manhole cover displacement is one of the common problems in cities. It not only affects the passage of pedestrians and vehicles, but also poses certain hidden dangers to urban safety. Therefore, timely handling of manhole cover displacement is one of the important measures to ensure urban safety and development.
[0003] At present, most of the manhole cover displacement detection is solved by tilt sensors, but they can only solve the problem of tilt displacement, but cannot solve the problem of translation displacement and reset when the manhole cover does not trigger the tilt threshold. However, translation displacement is a very common phenomenon in the actual use of manhole covers. Another way to solve the problem is to install video surveillance manhole covers and perform visual analysis, but the cost is very high and is greatly affected by the environment (nighttime fill light, etc.), so it is not feasible for actual engineering applications.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0017] In response to the difficulties encountered in the industry, the present invention is based on the actual needs of monitoring manhole cover movement and liquid level. It creatively uses the hardware requirements of the product itself, and utilizes the acceleration sensor of manhole cover movement and the radar ranging principle of outputting infinite measurement data in blind spots and beyond the ranging range. Through software design, a new method for detecting abnormal tilt, displacement and reset of manhole covers is provided. An acceleration sensor is installed on the manhole cover to detect the movement and tilt state of the manhole cover. At the same time, the distance between the manhole cover and the bottom of the well / liquid level is detected based on the radar ranging sensor. Through the manhole cover status and radar ranging data, it is possible to determine in real time whether the manhole cover is tilted, displaced or reset. If a state change occurs, the information is reported promptly through the network.
[0018] like Figure 1 As shown, in order to solve the above technical problems of the present invention, the device for judging the inclination, displacement and resetting of the manhole cover proposed by the present invention comprises: The acceleration sensor detects the angle of the manhole cover and the state of the manhole cover from static to moving, and sends a wake-up signal to the MCU; The radar ranging sensor detects the distance between the manhole cover and a reference obstacle; the reference obstacle is one of the bottom of the well, the liquid surface in the well, and the side wall of the well before the manhole cover moves; after the manhole cover moves, if the radar ranging sensor cannot measure the reference obstacle before the manhole cover moves, the reference obstacle is converted to other obstacles outside the well, or the measured distance is infinite.
[0019] MCU determines the tilt, displacement and reset status of the manhole cover according to the angle change ΔAn and distance movement change ΔH of the manhole cover: If ΔAn is greater than the set threshold and ΔH is less than the set threshold, it is determined that the manhole cover is tilted; If ΔAn is greater than the set threshold, and ΔH is greater than the set threshold, it is determined that the manhole cover is displaced; If ΔAn is less than the set threshold and ΔH is greater than the set threshold, it is determined that the manhole cover is displaced; If ΔAn is less than the set threshold, and ΔH is less than the set threshold, it is determined that the manhole cover is reset; The communication module is connected to the upper-level equipment for communication and reports the results of determining the tilt, displacement and reset status of the manhole cover to the upper-level equipment for alarm.
[0020] After the device is installed on the manhole cover, it records the current posture of the manhole cover and the distance between the manhole cover and a reference obstacle, and allows the device to enter a low power consumption state, receiving only alarms from an acceleration sensor and a radar ranging sensor.
[0021] like Figure 2 As shown, the method for determining the tilt, displacement and resetting of a manhole cover proposed by the present invention comprises the following steps: S1. After the detection device is installed on the manhole cover, the current posture of the manhole cover and the distance between the manhole cover and the reference obstacle are recorded, and the device enters a low power consumption state and only receives the detection sensor alarm; The acceleration sensor installed on the manhole cover detects the state of the manhole cover from static to moving, issues an alarm for abnormal movement of the manhole cover, and records the inclination angle and distance of the manhole cover measured last time in the static state. When the manhole cover stops moving and enters the static state again, the angle change of the manhole cover ΔAn is detected; the radar ranging sensor detects the movement change ΔH of the manhole cover from the reference obstacle; Before the manhole cover moves, the reference obstacle is one of the bottom of the well, the liquid surface in the well, and the side wall of the well; after the manhole cover moves, if the radar ranging sensor cannot measure the reference obstacle before the manhole cover moves, the reference obstacle is converted to other obstacles outside the well; if no obstacle is measured outside the well, for example, the radar ranging sensor is close to the surface and is in the sensor blind spot, and the radar ranging sensor is facing the sky and exceeds the ranging range, the measured distance is infinite.
[0022] S2. Determine the tilt, displacement and reset status of the manhole cover according to the angle change ΔAn and the distance movement change ΔH: If ΔAn is greater than the set threshold and ΔH is less than the set threshold, it is determined that the manhole cover is tilted; If ΔAn is greater than the set threshold, and ΔH is greater than the set threshold, it is determined that the manhole cover is displaced; If ΔAn is less than the set threshold and ΔH is greater than the set threshold, it is determined that the manhole cover is displaced; If ΔAn is less than the set threshold, and ΔH is less than the set threshold, it is determined that the manhole cover is reset; The angle change threshold and the distance change threshold can be set according to the on-site situation. In S1, if other obstacles outside the well are detected, or the radar ranging sensor is close to the ground and in the sensor blind area, or the radar ranging sensor is facing the sky and exceeds the ranging range, the measured distance is infinite, which means that ΔH is greater than the set threshold, and the manhole cover can be determined to be displaced.
[0023] S3. The result of determining the tilt, displacement and reset status of the manhole cover is reported to the superior equipment through the communication module.
[0024] like Figure 3-8 As shown, the device for judging the tilt, displacement and reset of the manhole cover of the present invention also includes a mechanical structure: a base 1, an upper cover 2, a sealing ring 3, a detachable hanging ear 4, a magnetic pressing plate 5, and a radar horn antenna 6. The side of the base 1 is fixed to the manhole cover through the detachable hanging ear 5, the electronic equipment circuit board mentioned above is placed inside the base 1, and the magnetic pressing plate 5 is fixed at the bottom of the base 1; the upper cover 2 is sealed on the base 1 through the sealing ring 3. The radar ranging sensor in the electronic equipment circuit board is provided with a radar horn antenna 6.
[0025] The present invention is based on the hardware required by the product itself, and creatively realizes the judgment of manhole cover tilt, displacement, and reset through software design, without adding additional hardware costs. The judgment logic is more comprehensive and has higher adaptability to the on-site environment. The product has been put into on-site use and has been fully recognized by customers.
