DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0024] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments.
[0025] This embodiment includes an outer manhole cover 1 and an inner manhole cover 2. The outer manhole cover 1 is made of thermoplastic polyurethane elastomer rubber. Thermoplastic polyurethane elastomer rubber (TPU) is a unique material with excellent load-bearing capacity, impact resistance and shock absorption performance, as well as excellent wear resistance, good elasticity, excellent cold resistance and water resistance. The outer manhole cover 1 is placed on the shaft 3. The outer manhole cover 1 is used to carry and transfer vehicle loads to ensure the function of road traffic. The upper surface of the outer manhole cover 1 is an arc-shaped surface that is higher in the middle and slightly lower on both sides. The height of the highest point in the middle of the outer manhole cover 1 is 2-5mm higher than the height of the lowest point on both sides. Preferably, the thickness of the middle position of the outer manhole cover 1 is 60mm. In this embodiment, the side wall of the outer manhole cover 1 is provided with a slope, that is, the diameter of the side of the outer manhole cover 1 gradually decreases downward, and the vertical section of the outer manhole cover 1 is trapezoidal in shape as a whole. Preferably, the diameter of the upper end of the outer manhole cover 1 is 10 mm larger than the diameter of the lower end. The vertical adjacent interface between the outer manhole cover 1 and the asphalt pavement 15 is set to a slope type, so that the bottom tensile stress and shear stress generated by the upper vehicle load are decomposed in a manner consistent with the stress characteristics of the asphalt concrete pavement material, protecting the edge of the asphalt pavement 15 from shear failure. In order to increase the anti-skid property of the outer manhole cover 1, it is preferred that the outer surface of the outer manhole cover 1 is provided with anti-skid patterns.
[0026] The upper edge of the outer manhole cover 1 integrally extends outwardly to form a buffer seal 11, and the upper surface of the buffer seal 11 is smoothly transitioned with the upper surface of the outer manhole cover 1, and the thickness of the buffer seal 11 gradually decreases outward until it is flush with the upper surface of the asphalt pavement 15. In this embodiment, the highest point of the buffer seal 11 is preferably 5mm higher than the upper surface of the asphalt pavement 15, that is, the thickest part of the buffer seal 11 is 5mm, and the width of the buffer seal 11 set in this embodiment is 150mm. The buffer seal 11 can protect the asphalt pavement 15 around the outer manhole cover 1 from being directly crushed by wheels.
[0027] The outer manhole cover 1 of the present invention is opened by an electromagnetic opening tool 13. The electromagnetic opening tool 13 used in this embodiment is an inverted U-shaped electromagnetic opening tool 13. Figure 4 As shown, adsorption points are provided on both sides of the electromagnetic opening tool 13, and correspondingly, an opening point 12 is symmetrically built-in inside the edge of the outer manhole cover 1, and the adsorption points correspond to the opening points 12, and the opening points 12 are preferably made of metal material. Electromagnetic adsorption is a widely used technology, and will not be described in detail here.
[0028] The inner manhole cover 2 of this embodiment is installed on the placement groove 10 of the shaft 3, and the upper surface of the inner manhole cover 2 is flush with the upper surface of the shaft 3. Preferably, the inner manhole cover 2 is made of UHPC high-performance concrete, and the inner manhole cover 2 should comply with the provisions of the national standard "Inspection Manhole Cover" (GB / T23858-2009). A placement groove 10 is provided on the inner side of the upper part of the shaft 3. The diameter of the inner manhole cover 2 is equal to the outer diameter of the placement groove 10, and the inner manhole cover 2 is just placed on the placement groove 10. The inner manhole cover 2 can also be opened by using an electromagnetic opening tool 13, and an opening point 12 corresponding to the adsorption point is provided on the inner manhole cover 2, or it can be opened by using an ordinary manhole cover opening hole. There is no special restriction here.
[0029] In order to further promote the development and application of intelligent construction technology, as a further solution, the present embodiment has a power module 14, a pressure sensor 5, a control module 4, and a communication module 6 built into the outer manhole cover 1. These components can be made into an integral part with the outer manhole cover 1 when they are manufactured at the factory. The pressure sensor 5, the control module 4, and the communication module 6 are all connected to the power module 14 line, and the power module 14 provides the required power. Since the outer manhole cover 1 is made of transparent material, the power module 14 of the present invention can preferably adopt a solar panel power module, which includes a solar panel and an energy storage module. The energy storage module can store excess power during the day for use at night. The built-in pressure sensor 5 is connected to the control module 4 line, and the control module 4 is connected to the communication module 6 line. The pressure sensor 5 transmits the external pressure and the number of times of pressure to the control module 4, and then the control module 4 transmits the received pressure sensor 5 information to the communication module 6. The communication module 6 is wirelessly connected to the terminal management device, and the communication module 6 wirelessly transmits the received pressure sensor 5 information transmitted by the control module 4 to the terminal management device, so that the collection of traffic data can be realized. The terminal management device can be a terminal such as a computer or a mobile device.
[0030] As a further solution, a gas composition analyzer 8 can be installed in some wells where toxic and harmful gases may exist. Specifically, an LED light strip 7 is built into the edge of the outer manhole cover 1, and the LED light strip 7 is connected to the control module 4. The control module 4 can control the switch of the LED light strip 7. A gas composition analyzer 8 is installed on the bottom surface of the inner manhole cover 2, and the gas composition analyzer 8 can be used to analyze the gas composition and concentration in the wellbore 3. Corresponding contacts 9 are provided on the upper surface of the inner manhole cover 2 and the bottom surface of the outer manhole cover 1. The contacts 9 on the upper surface of the inner manhole cover 2 are connected to the gas composition analyzer 8, and the contacts 9 on the bottom surface of the outer manhole cover 1 are connected to the control module 4 through the line. The gas composition analyzer 8 is connected to the control module 4 through the contact of the two contacts 9. Therefore, when the outer manhole cover 1 is placed on the inner manhole cover 2, the upper and lower contacts 9 need to be aligned and installed. Specifically, a hole for the line to pass through is provided on the inner manhole cover 2, and the contact 9 on the upper surface of the inner manhole cover 2 is connected to the gas composition analyzer 8 through the line passing through the hole, and then connected to the control module 4 through the contact 9 on the lower surface of the outer manhole cover 1 through the line built into the outer manhole cover 1. The gas composition analyzer 8 transmits the gas composition and concentration information to the control module 4, and the control module 4 transmits the transmitted gas composition and concentration information to the terminal management device through the communication module 6. At the same time, the concentration threshold of certain gases is set in the control module 4. The gas with the set concentration threshold is toxic and harmful gas. Most of the toxic and harmful gases in the well are methane, hydrogen sulfide, carbon monoxide, ammonia, etc. The gas concentration threshold set in the control module 4 refers to the threshold of these common toxic and harmful gases in the well, and can be set specifically according to the well type during actual operation. When the concentration of certain gases exceeds the gas concentration threshold set in the control module 4, the control module 4 turns on the LED light strip 7 for warning.
[0031] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention, rather than to limit them. Those skilled in the art should understand that they can still modify the technical solutions described in the above embodiments, or replace some of the technical features therein with equivalents. However, these modifications or replacements do not deviate the essence of the corresponding technical solutions from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention.
