Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of manhole cover technology, and in particular to a high-ductility concrete prefabricated manhole cover structure. Background Technology

[0002] As citizens' demand for green travel continues to increase, slow-traffic system facilities are gradually being improved, and a large number of aesthetically pleasing, safe, and comfortable sidewalks, secondary pedestrian islands, and barrier-free facilities at intersections have emerged. However, since manhole covers on sidewalks are still unavoidable, the problem of their installation is becoming increasingly prominent. During inspections, the owners of these manhole covers often violently dismantle or reinstall them, causing varying degrees of damage to the decorative manholes. This leads to loosening of the sidewalk structure around the manhole cover, fractures in the internal structure of the decorative manhole, and subsequent loosening and subsidence, posing safety hazards. Due to the heavy weight of concrete, opening and closing manhole covers requires two people simultaneously, resulting in low overall maintenance efficiency. This fails to improve the integrity of the decorative manhole and sidewalk structure, reduce the amount of stainless steel used in the decorative manholes, and does not save on maintenance costs.

[0003] A UHPC high-ductility concrete prefabricated manhole cover, disclosed in announcement number CN22170250U, relates to the field of manhole covers. It includes a manhole pit, a pit floor, a manhole cover block A, and a concrete inverted block. The manhole pit contains prefabricated manhole cover assemblies, a manhole pit shoulder is located on the pit floor, and a pit body is located within the shoulder. The top surface of the concrete inverted block is equipped with lifting handles A and B. This UHPC high-ductility concrete prefabricated manhole cover allows for factory production of prefabricated block units, exhibiting standardization and specialization. It has strong adaptability and promotional value in various manhole cover application scenarios. The UHPC high-ductility concrete prefabricated manhole cover utilizes modular production, simplifying installation, improving construction efficiency, reducing production costs, and enhancing overall aesthetics.

[0004] While the aforementioned patent achieves modular production of UHPC high-ductility concrete prefabricated manhole covers, simplifying installation, improving construction efficiency, reducing production costs, and enhancing overall aesthetics, the manhole cover can only be moved by lifting the cover block during installation and maintenance. It cannot be tilted and fixed at the original location of the manhole cover to achieve the purpose of maintenance, which increases the complexity of operation and maintenance. Utility Model Content

The anti-ultraviolet coating enhances the anti-fouling ability and extends the service life.

[0012] As a further embodiment of this utility model, a guide channel is provided at the bottom of each of the multiple sets of manhole cover blocks. The guide channel is located at the center of the bottom of the manhole cover block, and the guide channel improves the drainage efficiency.
