AI Technical Summary
The existing intelligent manhole cover status monitoring technology has the problem of contact mechanical switches being susceptible to external pressure and causing poor contact, and the mechanical positioning sensors being susceptible to interference from foreign objects, causing the movement mechanism to be stuck, and cannot meet the needs of both normally open contacts and normally closed contacts.
An intelligent manhole cover state detection device is designed, using a normally open magnetic induction switch and a normally closed magnetic induction switch built in the shell. Core components such as magnetic steel components and sensor brackets are arranged inside the shell, leaving only the rear half of the flip plate outside the shell to prevent external foreign objects from invading.
The device can work normally in situations where both normally open contacts and normally closed contacts are required, effectively preventing interference from external foreign objects and extending the service life of the device.

Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of intelligent manhole covers, and particularly relates to an intelligent manhole cover state detection device. Background Art
[0002] The existing intelligent manhole cover state monitoring technologies are mainly realized in two ways. One is a contact mechanical switch, and the other is a mechanical positioning inductor. The contact mechanical switch relies on the contact state of mechanical contacts to transmit signals. However, in actual applications, the force on the contacts of this switch is extremely vulnerable to the influence of external pressing forces, which may cause the contacts to gradually wear during long-term use, thereby leading to poor contact problems. Poor contact will not only affect the stability of the signal, but also may cause false alarms or missed alarms, bringing unnecessary troubles to the monitoring of the manhole cover state. Compared with the contact mechanical switch, the mechanical positioning inductor uses a non-contact sensor as the sensing element and is not affected by external pressing forces. However, the moving mechanism of the mechanical positioning inductor usually adopts an open structure. Although this design has a simple structure, it also provides convenience for foreign object interference, which may cause the moving mechanism to jam and affect the normal operation of the switch. Moreover, the mechanical positioning inductor usually only has one contact, which limits its application in certain specific occasions. In some application scenarios, both normally open contacts and normally closed contacts are required, and the existing mechanical positioning inductors cannot meet this requirement.
[0003] Therefore, we design an intelligent manhole cover state detection device here. Content of the Utility Model

The rotating shaft is close to the rear opening of the housing. A flap is rotatably installed on the rotating shaft. The rear half of the flap passes through the rear opening of the housing and is arranged outside the housing. A double torsion spring is arranged on the rotating shaft. The two torsion arms of the double torsion spring abut between the housing and the flap. The bottom of the rear half of the flap abuts on the lower edge of the rear opening of the housing and remains horizontal.
