Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of road drainage equipment and relates to a manhole cover. Background Art
[0002] With the accelerated development of urbanization, the importance of urban infrastructure construction has become increasingly prominent. Among the many infrastructures, the drainage system under municipal roads is a key component to ensure the safe operation of the city, and its importance cannot be ignored. Manhole covers, as important components connecting surface and underground drainage pipes, play a vital role in the urban drainage system. They not only need to have sufficient strength and stability to withstand the pressure of passing vehicles and pedestrians, but also ensure good drainage performance to prevent urban waterlogging caused by rainwater accumulation. Traditional manhole covers are mostly made of metal materials such as cast iron or steel, which have high compressive strength and corrosion resistance.
[0003] Existing manhole cover designs typically feature a certain number and size of drainage holes at the top to ensure that surface water can flow smoothly into the underground drainage system. However, this design has a significant drawback: to ensure sufficient drainage capacity, the drainage holes are often designed to be large. While this effectively prevents rainwater from accumulating, it inevitably allows a large amount of road debris to enter the sewer through these larger drainage holes. Over time, this debris not only clogs the sewer, making it more difficult to clean, but also places an additional burden on the city's sewage treatment system, affecting the city's environmental sanitation and the quality of life of residents. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a manhole cover that can automatically adjust the drainage capacity according to the rainfall, and can effectively prevent road garbage from entering while ensuring sufficient drainage capacity.
[0005] In order to solve the above technical problems, the utility model provides a manhole cover, including a manhole seat, an inner support frame is provided inwardly at the edge of the lower end of the manhole seat, a support cover is movably provided in the manhole seat, and a vertical frame is provided downwardly at the edge of the support cover that matches the inner wall of the manhole seat. After installation, the support cover is flush with the upper surface of the manhole seat, and a plurality of strip-shaped staggered holes distributed at equal intervals are provided through the support cover. A hollow sinking drainage shell is movably provided in the manhole seat below the support cover, and the side walls of the sinking drainage shell are in contact with and slidably connected to the inner wall of the inner support frame. An upper support frame is provided outwardly at the edge of the upper end of the sinking drainage shell and is located below the support cover, and an elastic member is provided at the lower end of the upper support frame that can prop it up to contact the support cover.
[0006] The upper end of the sinking drainage shell is provided with a first-level drainage strip at each strip-shaped offset hole, and each first-level drainage strip is downwardly provided with a leakage hole connected to the sinking drainage shell. The sinking drainage shell is provided with a second-level drainage strip hole connected to the interior thereof between every two first-level drainage strips. When not affected by external force, each second-level drainage strip hole is blocked by the support cover. The lower end of the sinking drainage shell is provided with a strip-shaped drainage hole connected to the interior thereof, and the side wall of the sinking drainage shell is provided with multiple overflow ports connected to the interior thereof. When the water in the sinking drainage shell is discharged from the overflow port, the sinking drainage shell compresses the elastic part to open the second-level drainage strip hole.
[0007] By adopting the above technical solution, when the rainfall is light, the first-level drainage strip is located in the strip-shaped offset hole, blocking the second-level drainage strip hole. After the rainwater flows from the road surface to the support cover, it flows into the sunken drainage shell through the leakage hole on the first-level drainage strip and is discharged into the sewer through the strip-shaped drainage hole.
[0008] When the rainfall increases, the water inflow of the leakage hole is greater than the drainage volume of the strip drainage hole, and the water at the bottom of the sinking drainage shell gradually increases, gradually increasing the downward pressure on the support spring until the support spring is compressed to cause the sinking drainage shell to move downward and leak out of the secondary drainage strip hole. Rainwater flows into the sinking drainage shell from the leakage hole and the secondary drainage strip hole at the same time, and is discharged into the sewer from the strip drainage hole and the overflow outlet.
[0009] The present invention is further configured such that a lower support frame is provided inwardly at the lower end of the vertical frame and is in contact with the inner support frame, and the elastic member is provided between the upper support frame and the lower support frame.
[0010] The utility model is further configured such that both the vertical frame and the lower support frame are U-shaped.
[0011] The utility model is further configured such that the elastic member is a support spring.
[0012] The present invention is further configured such that an outer support frame is provided outwardly at the edge of the lower end of the well seat.
[0013] The present invention is further configured such that at least two cover-lifting holes arranged opposite to each other are provided through the edge of the support cover, and at least two insertion holes corresponding to the cover-lifting holes are provided through the upper support frame.
[0014] The present invention is further configured such that each first-level drainage strip protrudes upward and is flush with the upper surface of the support cover.
[0015] The utility model is further configured such that the lower cross-section of the sinking drainage shell is V-shaped.
[0016] Compared with the prior art, the utility model has the following beneficial effects: the utility model utilizes a sinking drainage shell that can adaptively sink. When the rainfall is small, the sinking drainage shell does not sink to block the secondary drainage strip holes, and only uses the leakage holes to drain water, which can not only play a sufficient drainage role, but also prevent road garbage from entering. When the rainfall is heavy, the water volume in the sinking drainage shell increases, causing it to sink and open the secondary drainage strip holes, so that the leakage holes and the secondary drainage strip holes drain water at the same time to meet the demand for large drainage volume.
