[0025] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0026] Example:

[0027] Reference Figure 1 - Figure 5 The present invention discloses a device for alarming the opening of a manhole cover, including a manhole cover frame 1 and a movable manhole cover 2. The movable manhole cover 2 is connected to the manhole cover frame 1 by a hinge. The inner frame wall of the manhole cover frame 1 is provided with a blocking device 3. Several sliding holes 4 are opened inside the frame wall of the manhole cover frame 1. Several light warning devices 5 are slidably arranged inside the sliding holes 4.

[0028] The blocking device 3 includes a base 31, a guide frame 32 is provided at the top of the base 31, the outer wall of the guide frame 32 is fixedly connected to the inner frame wall of the manhole cover frame 1, a number of guide holes 33 are provided at the position where the guide frame 32 is connected to the manhole cover frame 1, and a pop-out air rod 36 is provided inside the guide hole 33, and a warning ring 34 is provided at the top of the pop-out air rod 36.

[0029] In this embodiment, when the manhole cover is in the closed state, the upper surface of the manhole cover is flush with the road surface, and the bottom surface of the movable manhole cover 2 is in contact with the surface of the manhole cover frame 1. Therefore, the light warning device 5 and the blocking device 3 can be pressed down by the gravity of the movable manhole cover 2, so that the light warning device 5 and the blocking device 3 are pressed into the interior of the manhole cover frame 1. At this time, the pop-out air rod 36 is in a compressed state.

[0030] When the movable manhole cover 2 is stolen, the warning ring 34 is pushed upward by the pop-out air rod 36, making the warning ring 34 higher than the road surface, so that the road surface can be raised higher, which can effectively warn pedestrians and reduce the danger.

[0031] The light warning device 5 provides light warning, and the light and the warning ring together form a halo to improve the warning effect.

[0032] In a further preferred embodiment of this utility model, such as Figure 1-5 As shown, the light warning device 5 includes a lamp holder 51, which is slidably installed inside the sliding hole 4. A warning light 52 is installed inside the lamp holder 51. A support spring 53 is installed at the bottom end of the lamp holder 51, and a threaded mounting block 54 is fixedly installed at the bottom end of the support spring 53.

[0033] In this embodiment, when the manhole cover is closed, the bottom wall of the manhole cover presses down on the top of the lamp holder 51 and presses the lamp holder 51 downward, so that the lamp holder 51 is inside the sliding hole 4 and compresses the support spring 53. When the manhole cover is opened, the support spring 53 extends and pushes the lamp holder 51 out of the sliding hole 4, so that the lamp holder protrudes from the manhole cover frame 1. At this time, the warning light generated by the warning light 52 inside the lamp holder 51 is emitted, which can provide a good warning effect at night.

[0034] In a further preferred embodiment of this utility model, such as Figure 1-5 As shown, the upper end of the base 31 is provided with a plurality of threaded holes 35, the positions of the threaded holes 35 correspond one-to-one with the positions of the sliding holes 4, and the threaded holes 35 are threadedly engaged with the threaded mounting block 54.

[0035] In this embodiment, the threaded hole 35 facilitates the installation and fixing of the threaded mounting block 54, which in turn facilitates the fixing of the bottom end of the support spring 53.

[0036] In a further preferred embodiment of this utility model, such as Figure 1-5 As shown, the outer wall of the warning ring 34 is provided with a reflective warning sticker.

[0037] In this embodiment, by setting up reflective warning stickers, the light emitted by the warning light 52 is reflected at night, so that the warning ring 34 forms a ring of light, which can effectively remind pedestrians of the shape and accurate location of the manhole, thereby achieving the purpose of improving the warning effect.

[0038] In a further preferred embodiment of this utility model, such as Figure 1-5As shown, the lamp holder 51 includes a cylindrical tube 511, the cylindrical tube 511 has several light-transmitting grooves 512 on its wall, a conductive patch 513 is provided at the bottom end of the cylindrical tube 511, and an electrically conductive patch 514 that cooperates with the conductive patch 513 is provided at the bottom end of the manhole cover frame 1 at the edge of the sliding hole 4. An anti-pressure ball 515 is provided at the top end of the lamp holder 51.

[0039] In this embodiment, the anti-pressure ball 515 is used to seal the top of the cylindrical tube 511, and the anti-pressure ball 515 and the cylindrical tube 511 are connected to each other by a threaded connection. When the manhole cover is closed from the open state, the anti-pressure ball 515 reduces the impact on the lamp holder 51 and avoids the lamp holder 51 from deforming due to impact. With the setting of conductive patch 513 and power-conducting patch 514, when the manhole cover is closed, the manhole cover presses the lamp holder 51 downward. At this time, there is a gap between the conductive patch 513 and the power-conducting patch 514. At this time, the warning light 52 inside the lamp holder 51 cannot conduct electricity through the power-conducting patch 514. When the manhole cover is opened, the lamp holder 51 rises, so that the conductive patch 513 and the power-conducting patch 514 come into contact with each other. At this time, the power is conducted to the warning light 52 through the power-conducting patch 514 and the conductive patch 513, so as to make the warning light 52 light up.

[0040] In a further preferred embodiment of this utility model, such as Figure 1-5 As shown, a controller is installed inside the manhole cover frame 1. A power supply wire 11 is installed on one side of the controller, which passes through the manhole cover frame 1. The controller is connected to the power-conducting patch 514.

[0041] In this embodiment, the power supply wire 11 passes through the ground and connects to nearby power supply equipment, such as cables, street light cables, etc. Current is supplied to the warning light 52 through the power supply wire 11 and the controller to achieve the warning function. After the warning light 52 is powered on, the information that the manhole cover is open is transmitted to the relevant departments to achieve the purpose of automatic alarm.

[0042] The embodiments described herein are preferred embodiments of this utility model and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this utility model. Therefore, all equivalent changes made to the structure, shape, and principle of this utility model should be included within the scope of protection of this utility model.
