There are air holes on the manhole cover.

[0028] The utility model provides a natural gas valve manhole cover explosion-proof device. Compared with the prior art, when an explosion occurs in the natural gas valve well 1, the energy absorbing plate 2 slides upward under the action of the impact force; when the energy absorbing plate 2 contacts the piston rod of the energy absorbing hydraulic cylinder 3, the energy absorbing plate 2 provides upward pressure on the piston rod, and the piston rod retracts into the hydraulic cylinder, thereby playing a role of energy absorption and reducing the impact of the explosion on the manhole cover; when the energy absorbing plate 2 moves to the top of the pressure relief channel 12, the explosion area is connected to the outside through the pressure relief channel 12, thereby playing a role of pressure relief and further reducing the impact on the manhole cover; through the above-mentioned arrangement of the present application, the energy generated by the explosion can be absorbed, thereby reducing the impact of the explosion on the manhole cover, thereby reducing the situation where the manhole cover flies out.

[0029] In some embodiments, Figures 1 to 5 As shown, a rope is connected to the cover 13, and the other end of the rope is connected to the ground; an alarm light is arranged on the top of the natural gas valve well 1, and the explosion-proof device also includes a battery box, and the opposite ends of the battery box have a positive pole and a negative pole respectively, and the battery box is used to install dry batteries; an insulating sheet is provided between the dry battery and the positive pole, and one end of the insulating sheet extends out of the battery box and is connected to the cover 13; the battery box is fixed on the ground.

[0030] It should be noted that the other end of the rope is fixed to the ground by an anchor bolt; the rope is connected to the cover 13, which can limit the cover 13 and reduce the loss of the cover 13 when the cover 13 flies out under the impact. When there is no explosion, the cover 13 covers the top of the pressure relief channel 12, which can reduce the entry of debris into the pressure relief channel 12.

[0031] Exemplarily, the battery box and the alarm light are both fixed on the ground, the battery box is made of waterproof material, and has a through hole for the insulating sheet to extend out, and a rubber strip is connected to the through hole of the battery box, and the rubber strip is pressed against the insulating sheet to reduce the water entering the battery box from the through hole. When the cover 13 flies out, the insulating sheet can be pulled out of the battery box, at which time the positive pole of the dry cell is connected to the positive pole of the battery box, and the negative pole of the dry cell is connected to the negative pole of the battery box, and the alarm sounds an alarm, which can serve as a reminder.

[0032] In some embodiments, Figures 1 to 5 As shown, the inner peripheral wall of the natural gas valve well 1 has mounting grooves 14 corresponding to the energy-absorbing hydraulic cylinders 3, and the energy-absorbing hydraulic cylinders 3 are fixed in the mounting grooves 14. The liquid in each energy-absorbing hydraulic cylinder 3 is water, and the cylinder barrel of the energy-absorbing hydraulic cylinder 3 has a one-way valve 31 near the bottom of the cylinder. The one-way valve 31 opens at a preset pressure to discharge the water in the energy-absorbing hydraulic cylinder 3.

[0033] It should be noted that fixing the energy-absorbing hydraulic cylinder 3 in the mounting groove 14 can axially limit the energy-absorbing hydraulic cylinder 3; when the energy-absorbing plate 2 pushes the piston rod, the one-way valve 31 on the energy-absorbing hydraulic cylinder 3 is in a conducting state under a preset pressure, at which time the water in the energy-absorbing hydraulic cylinder 3 can be discharged, and during the movement of the piston rod, the energy of the energy-absorbing plate 2 can be absorbed, thereby reducing the impact energy of the energy-absorbing plate 2.

[0034] In some embodiments, Figures 1 to 5 As shown, the energy absorbing plate 2 has an inlet and outlet 21 in the middle, and a sealing plate 22 is provided at the inlet and outlet 21 of the energy absorbing plate 2, and the sealing plate 22 is detachably connected to the energy absorbing plate 2. The sealing plate 22 has an external thread on its outer peripheral wall, and an internal thread on the inlet and outlet 21, and the sealing plate 22 is threadedly matched with the energy absorbing plate 2; wherein, when the sealing plate 22 is connected to the energy absorbing plate 2 in place, the top of the sealing plate 22 is coplanar with the top of the energy absorbing plate 2.

[0035] It should be noted that when maintenance is required, the operator stands on the energy absorbing plate 2 and then rotates the sealing plate 22 to remove the sealing plate 22 from the energy absorbing plate 2, and then the operator enters from the inlet and outlet 21 to the bottom to perform maintenance on the natural gas transportation pipeline valve. After the maintenance is completed, the sealing plate 22 is rotated to the position of the inlet and outlet 21.

[0036] In some embodiments, Figures 1 to 5 As shown, the top of the sealing plate 22 is provided with a groove 23 , and a handle 24 is hinged in the groove 23 ; the bottom of the energy absorbing plate 2 is provided with a counterweight ring 25 , and the counterweight ring 25 is coaxially arranged with the inlet and outlet 21 .

[0037] It should be noted that when the sealing plate 22 needs to be rotated, the handle 24 is unscrewed from the groove 23, and then the sealing plate 22 is rotated by holding the handle 24, so that the sealing plate 22 can be removed from the energy absorbing plate 2, or the sealing plate 22 can be installed on the energy absorbing plate 2. By providing a counterweight ring 25 at the bottom of the energy absorbing plate 2, the weight of the energy absorbing plate 2 can be increased, so that more energy can be absorbed and the impact force can be weakened.

[0038] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
