[0026] Example 1

[0027] A tool for opening a manhole cover, such as Figure 1-4 As shown, it includes an L-shaped rod 1, a pulley 4 is fixed to the outer wall of the bottom of the L-shaped rod 1, an insertion rod 6 is fixed to the outer wall of one side of the L-shaped rod 1, a block 9 is fixed to the outer wall of the insertion rod 6, and handles 2 are fixed to the outer walls on both sides of the L-shaped rod 1; a reinforcing rod 3 is fixed to the outer wall of the L-shaped rod 1.

[0028] The staff first inserts the insertion rod 6 and the block 9 at the bottom of the insertion rod 6 into the manhole cover hole 8 on the outer wall of the manhole cover body 7, then lifts the L-shaped rod 1 to rotate the block 9 at the bottom of the insertion rod 6 to a position that is stuck at the bottom of the manhole cover hole 8, and then pushes the handle 2 downward, so as to use the pulley 4 as a fulcrum and utilize the lever principle to pry open the manhole cover body 7 through the insertion rod 6 and the block 9 on one side. Then, the manhole cover opening tool can be pushed by the pulley 4 to move the manhole cover body 7 to the side of the oil tank well mouth, thereby completing the opening work effortlessly and quickly;

[0029] When it is necessary to close the manhole cover body 7, the staff first pushes the manhole cover opening tool to the side of the wellhead, aligns the manhole cover body 7 supported by the insertion rod 6 and the block 9 on one side of the wellhead, then pulls the handle upward with both hands to allow the manhole cover body 7 at one end of the insertion rod 6 and the block 9 to move downward and cover the wellhead, then lifts the L-shaped rod 1 to rotate the block 9 to a position parallel to the manhole cover hole 8, and then the block 9 can be pulled out of the manhole cover hole 8 to complete the installation of the manhole cover.

[0030] like Figure 1-2 As shown, the outer wall of the L-shaped rod 1 is provided with a friction pad 5; the friction pad 5 can cushion the side of the manhole cover body 7 against the outer wall of the L-shaped rod 1, and at the same time increase the friction between the contact surface between the outer wall of the L-shaped rod 1 and the manhole cover body 7, so that the L-shaped rod 1 can transport the manhole cover body 7 more stably.

[0031] Working principle: The staff first inserts the insertion rod 6 and the block 9 at the bottom of the insertion rod 6 into the manhole cover hole 8 on the outer wall of the manhole cover body 7, then lifts the L-shaped rod 1 to rotate the block 9 at the bottom of the insertion rod 6 to a position that is stuck at the bottom of the manhole cover hole 8. Then the staff pushes the handle 2 downward, so that with the pulley 4 as the fulcrum, the manhole cover body 7 is pried open by the insertion rod 6 and the block 9 on one side using the principle of leverage. Then, the manhole cover opening tool can be pushed by the pulley 4 to move the manhole cover body 7 to the side of the oil tank well mouth, thereby completing the opening work effortlessly and quickly. When the manhole cover body 7 needs to be closed, the staff first pushes the manhole cover opening tool to the side of the well mouth, aligns the manhole cover body 7 supported by the insertion rod 6 and the block 9 on one side with the well mouth, then pulls the handle upward with both hands to move the manhole cover body 7 at one end of the insertion rod 6 and the block 9 downward and covers the well mouth, then lifts the L-shaped rod 1 to rotate the block 9 to a position parallel to the manhole cover hole 8, and then the block 9 can be pulled out of the manhole cover hole 8, completing the installation of the manhole cover.

[0032] Example 2

[0033] A tool for opening a manhole cover, such as Figure 3-4As shown, this embodiment makes the following improvements on the basis of embodiment 1: a bearing 11 is fixed to the inner wall of the L-shaped rod 1, and the insertion rod 6 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the bearing 11; a knob 10 is fixed to the outer wall of the insertion rod 6, and a buffer pad 12 is fixed to the outer wall of the block 9; a telescopic rod 13 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the L-shaped rod 1, and the telescopic rod 13 is fixed to the outer wall of the L-shaped rod 1 by screws; a connecting block 14 is fixed to the outer wall of one side of the telescopic rod 13, and the bearing 11 is fixed to the inner wall of the connecting block 14. The staff can adjust the length of the insertion rod 6 from one side of the L-shaped rod 1 by pulling out the telescopic rod 13, so that the block 9 at the bottom of the insertion rod 6 can be inserted into the manhole cover hole 8 on the outer wall of the manhole cover body 7 of different sizes, thereby improving the overall applicability of the manhole cover opening tool; at the same time, the buffer pad 12 can buffer the contact surface between the block 9 and the manhole cover body 7, thereby improving the supporting effect of the block 9 on the manhole cover body 7; at the same time, the staff can conveniently rotate the insertion rod 6 and the block 9 through the knob 10, thereby quickly adjusting the relative position between the block 9 and the manhole cover hole 8, thereby further improving the opening and closing efficiency of the manhole cover.

[0034] Working principle: The staff can adjust the length of the insertion rod 6 from one side of the L-shaped rod 1 by pulling the telescopic rod 13, so that the block 9 at the bottom of the insertion rod 6 can be inserted into the manhole cover hole 8 on the outer wall of the manhole cover body 7 of different sizes.

[0035] The above is only a preferred specific implementation method of the present invention, but the protection scope of the present invention is not limited to this.
