[0030] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only for explaining the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model; that is, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. The components of the embodiments of the present utility model described and shown in the accompanying drawings can generally be arranged and designed in various different configurations.
[0031] Therefore, the following detailed description of the embodiments of the present invention provided in the accompanying drawings is not intended to limit the scope of the claimed invention, but merely to illustrate selected embodiments of the invention. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present invention without inventive effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0032] like Figure 1 As shown, a fully automatic manhole cover lock based on an emergency unlocking method includes a main lock 2, a lever 3, a linkage mechanism 4, a push rod 5, an emergency lock 6, an emergency lock lever 7, a guide plate 8, a second guide pin 9, and a third guide pin 10.
[0033] The main lock is installed in the center of the manhole cover 1, such as... Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, it mainly includes a housing 201, a control board 202, and a geared motor 203. The control board 202 and the geared motor 203 are housed inside the housing 201, and the control board 202 is electrically connected to the geared motor 203.
[0034] The dial 3 is connected to the output shaft 20301 extending from the housing 201, and there are three connecting shafts 301 distributed at 120 degrees on the end face of the dial.
[0035] like Figure 5-6 As shown, the linkage mechanism 4 includes a connecting rod, a locking bolt 402, and a guide seat 403. The linkage mechanism is divided into single-group linkage mechanisms and three-group linkage mechanisms, as shown below. Figure 11 As shown, a single linkage mechanism is used for manhole covers with hinged connections to the manhole base, such as... Figure 1 As shown, three sets of linkage mechanisms are used for independent manhole covers with separate bases and covers. These three sets of linkage mechanisms are evenly distributed at 120-degree angles on the manhole cover. Figure 9 , Figure 10 As shown, the linkage is divided into an integral linkage 401 and a split linkage. The split linkage is formed by a straight linkage 404 and a bent linkage 406 connected by a first guide pin 405. Its length is the same as that of the integral linkage 401. When locked, the straight linkage 404 and the bent linkage 406 are on the same straight line. One end of the linkage is movably connected to the actuating disk 3 via a connecting shaft 301, and the other end is movably connected to the locking bolt 402 via a cylindrical pin 408. The linkage of a single linkage mechanism is a split linkage. Figure 1 As shown, one link of the three linkage mechanisms is integral, while the other two links are separate. The separate links are installed on both sides of the emergency lock 6. The guide seat 403 has a round hole 407 in the middle and is installed on the edge of the manhole cover 1. The bolt 402 is a cylindrical part installed in the round hole of the guide seat 403 and can move freely in the round hole.
[0036] Emergency lock 6 is installed away from main lock 2. It can be equipped with a mechanical lock or an electronic lock that is wirelessly powered and opened by rotating an electronic key.
[0037] like Figure 7 As shown, the push rod 5 has a circular hole 501 near the emergency lock 6 end, and the second guide pin 9 is set in this circular hole. The push rod 5 has a first guide groove 502 near the split connecting rod end. The first guide pin 405 moves in the first guide groove when the main lock 2 is switched on and off. The push rod 5 has a threaded hole 503 in the middle, and the third guide pin 10 is rigidly connected to the push rod 5 through this hole.
[0038] The guide plate 8 is installed on the main lock housing 201. When the fully automatic manhole cover lock is configured as a three-link mechanism, the guide plate 8 is set on the symmetrical line of the two links. The guide plate has a second guide groove 801 and a third guide groove 802. When the emergency lock 6 is opened, the push rod 5 is ensured to move on the set trajectory through the cooperation of the second guide groove 801, the third guide groove 802, the second guide pin 9, and the third guide pin 10 on the guide plate 8.
[0039] like Figure 8 As shown, one end of the emergency lock lever 7 has an oblong hole 701, which is rigidly connected to the emergency lock 6 through the oblong hole. The other end has a U-shaped groove 702. The U-shaped groove cooperates with the second guide pin 9 and the second guide groove 801 of the guide plate 8 to transmit the rotational motion from the emergency lock 6 to the push rod 5. When the emergency lock 6 is damaged by an external force, the U-shaped groove 702 separates from the second guide pin 9 first, ensuring that the push rod 5 and other components are not affected by the external force.
[0040] Lock opening and closing principle:
[0041] When the main lock 2 is opened, the control board 202 receives the unlocking command wirelessly or via wired connection, starts the reduction motor 203 to rotate 90 degrees clockwise, and the reduction motor 203 drives the actuating disc 3 to rotate. This, in turn, pulls the connecting rod via the connecting shaft 301 on the actuating disc 3, retracting the bolt 402 and opening the main lock 2. Figure 3 As shown;
[0042] When the main lock 2 is closed, and the control board 202 receives an unlocking command wirelessly or via wired means, or when the unlocking time exceeds a set value, the starting motor reverses 90 degrees. The reduction motor 203 drives the actuating disc 3 to rotate, and the connecting shaft 301 on the actuating disc 3 pulls the connecting rod to push out the bolt 402, thus closing the main lock 2. Figure 1 As shown;
[0043] In an emergency, rotate the emergency lock 6 with the key. The emergency lock 6 lever 7 rotates, which drives the push rod 5 through the U-shaped groove 702. The push rod 5 pushes open the split connecting rod, causing the straight connecting rod 404 and the bent connecting rod 406 to form an angle. At the same time, it causes the bolt 402 to retract along the guide seat 403's round hole 407, thus unlocking the lock. Figure 4 As shown;
[0044] When locking in an emergency, rotate the emergency lock 6 in the opposite direction. The lever 7 of the emergency lock 6 rotates, driving the push rod 5 through the U-shaped groove 702. The push rod 5 pulls back the split connecting rod, causing the bolt 402 to extend along the round hole 407 of the guide seat 403. When the straight connecting rod 404 and the bent connecting rod 406 of the split connecting rod are aligned, the bolt 402 is fully extended, and the emergency lock 6 is closed in place. Figure 1 As shown;
[0045] The fully automatic manhole cover lock 1 with three sets of linkage mechanisms 4 and the fully automatic manhole cover lock 1 with a single set of linkage mechanisms 4 have the same emergency opening and closing principle. When the fully automatic manhole cover lock 1 with three sets of linkage mechanisms 4 is opened and closed in an emergency, the emergency lock 6 needs to drive the two sets of separate linkages to move simultaneously.
