[0002] A manhole is an opening structure used for personnel to enter and exit equipment for installation, maintenance and safety inspection. A manhole cover is a general term for a cover plate and its fixing accessories that are installed on the manhole and have sealing performance. Manhole covers can be divided into protruding type and embedded type according to whether they are higher than the surface of the opening after installation.

[0003] According to a public notice (No. CN220843871U), a quick-opening device for a manhole cover is provided in the above application. The storage slot is equipped with a handle. When the user opens or closes the cover, he / she only needs to hold the handle to turn the cover. When the cover is not needed to be turned, the handle can automatically return to the storage slot due to the elastic force of the torsion spring. The user does not need to store the handle again, which saves time and is convenient and quick.

[0004] However, in actual use, when people need to enter the manhole cover mounting base to perform their work, the manhole cover does not have a corresponding limiting mechanism. Due to aging after long-term use, the manhole cover may close, making it inconvenient for people to come out. In view of this, we propose a quick-opening manhole cover device for equipment manholes.
