[0028] The utility model provides an intelligent manhole cover system.

[0029] like Figure 1-2As shown, the intelligent manhole cover system provided by the embodiment of the utility model includes a plurality of manhole cover components 10 and a cloud server 20, and the plurality of manhole cover components 10 are arranged one by one inside a plurality of underground pipes 40, and the manhole cover components 10 include: an outer shell part 11 of the manhole cover; a power generation device 12, which is installed on the outer shell part 11 and is used to provide electrical energy; a signal acquisition device 13, which is installed inside the underground pipe 40 and is used to collect humidity, combustible gas signals, pipe network flow signals, pressure signals and temperature signals of the pipe well environment; a signal transmission device, which includes a signal transmitting device and a signal receiving device, which is used to transmit the signal monitored by the signal monitoring device to the cloud server 20, and can receive the signal of the cloud server 20.

[0030] Therefore, in this embodiment, the status in the shaft can be detected and real-time communication and data exchange can be performed with the cloud, thereby improving convenience.

[0031] In addition, the intelligent manhole cover system also includes a mobile robot 30 disposed inside the underground pipeline 40 and movable along the extension direction of the underground pipeline 40, and the mobile robot 30 can be connected to the signal transmission device by signal. This application is equivalent to forming a pipe network system through the cloud server 20, the mobile robot 30 and a plurality of manhole cover components 10, and the pipe network system mainly provides communication and positioning services for the mobile robot 30 in the pipeline.

[0032] The manhole cover component 10 can be installed every 50m to 200m at the inspection well location to achieve communication coverage in the pipeline. The manhole cover component 10 can communicate and exchange data with the cloud server 20 in real time.

[0033] The mobile robots 30 can interconnect with each other, connect to the ground or the cloud, and settle in real time based on the location information of the manhole cover component 10 or the location information of the mobile robot 30 in the underground pipe network environment. The pipe network system is the infrastructure for the robot to realize autonomous operation in the underground pipe network environment. The manhole cover component 10 installed at each inspection well is also an Internet of Things monitoring system for the operation of the urban pipe network, which monitors the operation status data of the pipe network in real time and communicates with the cloud.

[0034] In addition, the manhole cover member 10 is installed in an inspection well that connects the ground and underground pipelines 40 .

[0035] Each manhole cover component 10 includes two parts, one part is an outer shell part 11, and the other part is an inner tube part.

[0036] The outer shell part 11 replaces the manhole cover of the original pipeline inspection manhole in structure, and is equipped with battery units, solar panels, communication units, computing units, sensors and other components.

[0037] The battery unit supplies power to the manhole cover component 10 (including the outer shell part 11 and the inner part of the pipe).

[0038] Solar panels collect solar energy and continuously charge battery units, which can significantly extend the working and standby time of the device.

[0039] The computing unit is a module suitable for data collection and calculation, which can be a single-chip microcomputer, an embedded computer, etc.

[0040] The communication unit is used to realize network communication between the manhole cover component 10 and the remote cloud.

[0041] The sensor is used to detect the state of the inspection well area environment, such as the state of the inspection well (such as collapse, siltation, water accumulation, etc.).

[0042] Because it has to withstand the pressure of ground pedestrian and vehicle traffic, the structure of the outer shell 11 is made of cast iron, cast steel, cast aluminum, engineering plastics, etc. that can withstand large pressure.

[0043] Among them, please refer to Figure 2 The shell part 11 is installed on the end surface of the vertical extension pipe 42 and is used to block the underground pipeline 40. The signal acquisition device 13 is connected to the shell part 11 through a cable 14. The underground pipeline 40 includes a horizontal extension pipe 41 and a plurality of vertical extension pipes 42 arranged vertically and connecting the horizontal extension pipe 41 and the outside. The manhole cover component 10 is partially arranged in the vertical extension pipe 42, and the rest is arranged in the horizontal extension pipe 41. The signal acquisition device 13 is suspended in the middle of the horizontal extension pipe 41 and has a gap with the bottom of the horizontal extension pipe 41 for the mobile robot 30 to move.

[0044] The inner part of the pipe is suspended in the transverse extension pipe 41 by a cable 14, and the part is equipped with a communication device, a sensor, etc. In addition to providing a suspension function, the cable 14 is also a power supply cable 14 for the outer shell part 11 (the outer shell part 11) of the manhole cover component 10 to supply power to the inner part of the pipe (the signal acquisition device 13), and a communication cable 14 between the two parts.

[0045] The communication unit in the pipe mainly realizes wireless signal coverage and wireless signal relay in the underground pipeline 40. The sensor in the pipe is used to monitor the operation status, defects, etc. (such as water level, water flow, blockage, siltation, tree root penetration, pipe wall damage, etc.) of the underground pipeline 40. Therefore, different sensors can be used according to the parameters actually required to be detected in the underground pipeline 40.

[0046] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the utility model, and does not limit the patent scope of the utility model. All equivalent structural changes made by using the contents of the utility model specification and drawings under the concept of the utility model, or directly / indirectly used in other related technical fields are included in the patent protection scope of the utility model.
