AI Technical Summary
The disassembly and assembly of the generator manhole cover requires the cooperation of multiple people, which poses a safety hazard and results in uneven stress and inconsistent height.
The manhole door is raised and lowered using a worm gear lifter. The manhole door is raised and lowered smoothly by connecting a fixed screw to a threaded hole and by cooperating with the base and the main lifter.
This system enables uniform force distribution during the assembly and disassembly of manhole doors, reducing safety hazards associated with manual operation, ensuring that the sealing gasket is not damaged during assembly, and improving operational safety and efficiency.

(4) Then manually adjust the position of the manhole door so that its four fixing screws can pass through the corresponding mounting holes at the four corners of the manhole door. After the adjustment is completed, continue to operate the main elevator to raise the height of the manhole door until it touches the bottom plane of the generator. Then install bolts in all mounting holes of the manhole door and the bottom plane of the generator except for the mounting holes for connecting the fixing screws. After the installation is completed, adjust the main elevator to lower the height of the device. Then unscrew the fixing screws and install the bolts at the four corners to complete the installation of the manhole door.
[0012] A method for lifting and disassembling a manhole door using a worm gear jack includes a base frame 13, on which two base jacks 9 are fixed. The base jack flange plates 14 of the two base jacks are fixed to a base plate 7. A main jack 5 is fixed to the base plate. Three through holes 10 are provided on the upper surface of the base frame. One through hole is in the center for the main jack screw of the main jack to pass through, and the other two through holes are for the base jack screws of the base jacks to pass through. A center hole 16 is provided in the center of the base plate for the main jack screw to pass through. The handwheels of the two base jacks are connected by a connecting rod 12, so that rotating one handwheel allows for synchronous rotation of both handwheels, achieving synchronous operation of the two base jacks and ensuring stable height adjustment of the base plate. A manhole door 4 is seated on the main jack flange plate 3 of the main jack. A fixing screw 2 passes through the mounting hole on the manhole door and is threadedly connected to a threaded hole on the bottom plane 1 of the generator.
[0013] The main elevator and the base elevator are both worm and screw rod elevators.
[0014] The base frame is a square ring frame, and the top of the square ring frame has a through hole 10 for the main lifting screw rod of the main elevator to pass through.
[0015] Working principle: first, when the manhole door is disassembled, the bolts installed at the four corners of the manhole door are removed, then the fixed screw rod is screwed into the threaded hole in the bottom plane of the generator after passing through the mounting hole of the four corner bolts of the manhole door, then the device is placed below the manhole door, the height is adjusted so that the main lifting flange plate of the main elevator contacts the bottom of the manhole door, then the remaining bolts on the manhole door are removed, the height of the main elevator is adjusted to lower it, then the base elevator is adjusted to continue to lower the height of the manhole door until the fixed screw rod is disengaged, and the manhole door can be lifted down. When installing the manhole door, first screw the four fixed screw rods into the threaded holes in the four corners of the bottom plane of the generator, then place the device below the bottom plane of the generator, lift the manhole door to this position and place it on the main lifting flange plate, then adjust the base elevator to raise the height of the manhole door, stop when it is about to contact the bottom of the fixed screw rod, then adjust the position of the manhole door manually so that the four fixed screw rods can pass through the corresponding mounting holes in the four corners of the manhole door, after adjustment, continue to operate the main elevator to raise the height of the manhole door until it contacts the bottom plane of the generator, then install bolts in all the mounting holes of the manhole door except the mounting hole connected to the fixed screw rod on the bottom plane of the generator, after installation, adjust the main elevator to lower the height of the device, then unscrew the fixed screw rod and install the bolts at the four corners to complete the installation of the manhole door. The height of the manhole door is raised by the elevator, which can prevent the phenomenon of uneven height of the generator manhole door cover caused by different heights of workers and uneven force.
