[0031] In the description of the present invention, unless otherwise clearly defined, terms such as setting, installing, connecting, etc. should be understood in a broad sense, and technicians in the relevant technical field can reasonably determine the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention based on the specific content of the technical solution.
[0032] Reference Figures 1 to 4 The utility model discloses a turning device for a manhole cover 200 of a storage tank, comprising a turning frame 300, a connecting rod 400, the manhole cover 200 and a connecting piece 500.
[0033] Among them, one end of the flip frame 300 is a hinged end 310, and the other end is a connecting end 320. The flip frame 300 is hinged to one side of the tank body 100 at the hinged end 310. The connecting rod 400 is passed through the middle of the flip frame 300. The manhole cover 200 is arranged on the flip frame 300 and is connected to one end of the connecting rod 400. The flip frame 300 can drive the manhole cover 200 to flip so that the manhole cover 200 can switch between a buckled state and an open state. When the manhole cover 200 is in the buckled state, the manhole cover 200 is horizontally arranged and blocks the opening of the tank body 100. When the manhole cover 200 is in the open state, the manhole cover 200 is vertically arranged or tilted and opens the opening of the tank body 100. The connecting piece 500 is arranged on the other side of the tank body 100. When the manhole cover 200 is in the buckled state, the connecting piece 500 can be connected to the connecting end 320 of the flip frame 300.
[0034] It is understandable that, when in use, the chemical products to be stored or transported can be placed in the tank body 100, and then the flip frame 300 can be flipped to flip the manhole cover 200 to a snap-fit state, and the connecting piece 500 can be connected to the connecting end 320 of the flip frame 300 to achieve sealing of the tank body 100; when the chemical products are to be taken, it is only necessary to disconnect the connection between the connecting piece 500 and the flip frame 300, and then the manhole cover 200 can be flipped to an open state after flipping the flip frame 300. Among them, since the manhole cover 200 is not directly hinged to the tank body 100, but is indirectly arranged on the flip frame 300 through the connecting rod 400, when it is necessary to disassemble the manhole cover 200, it is only necessary to remove the manhole cover 200 from the connecting rod 400, which is convenient for operation. In summary, the utility model can facilitate the flipping and disassembly of the manhole cover.
[0035] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the embodiment of the utility model also includes a handwheel 600, which is arranged at one end of the connecting rod 400 away from the manhole cover 200 and is detachably connected to the connecting rod 400. The handwheel 600 can facilitate the disassembly of the manhole cover 200. The bottom end of the connecting rod 400 can be withdrawn outside the manhole cover 200 by simply turning the handwheel 600.
[0036] In the embodiment of the present utility model, refer to Figure 3The connecting rod 400 is provided with a thread, and a connecting tube 700 is provided in the middle of the flip frame 300. The connecting tube 700 is embedded in the interior of the flip frame 300 and is penetrated with a threaded hole. The middle part of the connecting rod 400 is threadedly connected with the connecting tube 700. The connecting tube 700 can support and cooperate with the middle part of the connecting rod 400. By rotating the interface of the connecting rod 400, the bottom end of the connecting rod 400 can be easily inserted into and withdrawn from the manhole cover 200.
[0037] In the embodiment of the present utility model, refer to Figure 3 A connecting column 210 is provided in the middle of the outer surface of the manhole cover 200. The connecting column 210 is provided with a matching hole 211 along the axial direction of the manhole cover 200. The bottom of the connecting rod 400 can extend into the matching hole 211. A pin hole 212 is also provided on the connecting column 210. The pin hole 212 is perpendicular to the matching hole 211 and is eccentrically arranged relative to the center line of the matching hole 211. The pin hole 212 can allow the pin shaft 800 to pass through. An arc groove 410 is provided at the bottom of the connecting rod 400 corresponding to the position of the pin hole 212. The arc groove 410 extends along the circumference of the connecting rod 400. The pin hole 212 and the arc groove 410 enclose a through hole. When the pin shaft 800 passes through the pin hole 212, the middle part of the pin shaft 800 is located in the through hole. During installation, the bottom of the connecting rod 400 can be first inserted into the matching hole 211 so that the arc groove 410 is aligned with the pin hole 212, and then the pin shaft 800 is inserted into the pin hole 212. The pin shaft 800 can limit the position of the connecting rod 400 and prevent the connecting rod 400 from moving up and down, thereby achieving a stable connection between the connecting rod 400 and the manhole cover 200 and facilitating disassembly and assembly.
[0038] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the upper surface of the manhole cover 200 in the embodiment of the utility model may be provided with a plurality of reinforcing ribs 220, and the plurality of reinforcing ribs 220 are evenly distributed and divergent along the circumference of the manhole cover 200, and one end of the reinforcing rib 220 is connected to the connecting column 210. The reinforcing rib 220 can increase the local thickness of the manhole cover 200 and enhance the strength of the manhole cover 200. In addition, the reinforcing rib 220 can also stabilize the structure of the connecting column 210.
[0039] Reference Figure 2In an embodiment of the utility model, the connecting end 320 of the flip frame 300 is provided with an avoidance groove 330, and the connecting member 500 includes a screw rod 510 and a nut 520. The bottom end of the screw rod 510 is hinged to one side of the tank body 100, and the top of the screw rod 510 is provided with a thread. The nut 520 is sleeved on the top of the screw rod 510 and cooperates with the thread of the screw rod 510. The screw rod 510 has a locking position and an avoidance position. When the screw rod 510 is in the avoidance position, the screw rod 510 is located below the flip frame 300. When the screw rod 510 is in the locking position, the screw rod 510 flips into the avoidance groove 330, and the nut 520 is tightened on the screw rod 510 and presses against the upper surface of the connecting end 320 of the flip frame 300. When the manhole cover 200 is in the buckled position, the screw rod 510 can be flipped upward so that the nut 520 is located above the connecting end 320 of the flip frame 300, and then the nut 520 can be tightened downward to make the manhole cover 200 and the tank body 100 tightly buckled.
[0040] Reference Figure 1 The nut 520 in the embodiment of the utility model is provided with a handle 521 along its own axis, and the top of the handle 521 is higher than the top of the screw 510. When the nut 520 is rotated, the nut 520 can be indirectly driven to rotate by rotating the handle 521, thereby increasing the convenience and comfort when rotating the nut 520.
[0041] Reference Figure 1 The handle 521 in the embodiment of the utility model is in an inverted U shape, and the bottom end of the handle 521 is welded to the outer surface of the nut 520. The inverted U-shaped handle 521 is more convenient for operators to hold.
[0042] The technical features of the above-described embodiments may be arbitrarily combined. To make the description concise, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above-described embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, they should be considered to be within the scope of this specification.
