AI Technical Summary
Traditional geological monitoring wells have locks at the wellhead that are easily damaged, resulting in poor anti-theft performance.
A lock assembly was designed, including a lock cylinder and a key. The lock cylinder has a specific groove and a raised structure on its lock cylinder and the key has a lock cylinder. The lock cylinder and the lock rod can only be connected by the key to lock the manhole cover.
This improves the anti-theft effect of the manhole cover, ensuring that it can only be opened with a valid key, thus preventing illegal damage.

[0041] In this embodiment, for example, the lock cylinder 1 is a metal part; the first lock groove 101 penetrates the lock cylinder, and the inner ring diameter of the second lock groove 103 is larger than the diameter of the first lock groove 101.
[0042] For key component 2, the specific design is as follows:
[0043] The upper end of the key piece 2 is provided with a lock cylinder 3 that is adapted to the second lock groove 103. The outer ring wall and / or the outer ring wall are provided with a protruding structure 4 along the axial direction. When the lock cylinder 3 is inserted into the second lock groove 103, the protruding structures 4 provided on the lock cylinder 3 can be inserted into the groove structure 104 provided in the second lock groove 103 one by one.
[0044] The lower end of the key component 2 is provided with a lock head 5, which is used to cooperate with auxiliary tools to make the key component 2 rotate.
[0045] In this embodiment, for example, the key component 2 is a metal component; the lock head 5 has a square cross-section.
[0046] Preferably, the lower end of the inner ring groove wall of the second lock groove 103 is provided with a first chamfer structure 105 to facilitate the insertion of the lock cylinder 3 into the second lock groove 103.
[0047] More preferably, each of the protruding structures 4 on the lock cylinder 3 has a second chamfer structure 401 at its upper end, so as to facilitate the insertion of the protruding structure 4 on the lock cylinder 3 into the groove structure 104 in the second lock groove 103.
[0048] Preferably, the lower end face of the lock cylinder 1 is provided with an upwardly extending guide groove 106, the diameter of which is larger than the outer ring diameter of the second lock groove 103. In use, the lock cylinder 1 is generally in a vertical position with its second lock groove 103 facing downwards. In this case, the lock cylinder 3 of the key 2 can be inserted into the guide groove 106 first, and then, following the guide groove 106, the lock cylinder 3 of the key 2 can be quickly inserted into the second lock groove 103 (rotation is required). In other words, the guide groove 106 serves as a pre-guide.
[0049] In the above technical solution, the groove structure 104 is an arc-shaped groove, the protrusion structure 4 is an arc-shaped protrusion, three groove structures 104 are evenly provided along the circumference on the outer ring wall of the second locking groove 103, and three protrusion structures 4 are evenly provided along the circumference on the outer ring wall of the locking cylinder 3.
[0050] Example 2:

[0052] In this embodiment, for example, the wellhead 6 and the well cover 7 are rotatably connected.
[0053] A sleeve 9 is provided on the side wall of the wellhead 6, and an end cap 10 is provided at the upper end of the sleeve 9, and a lock hole 1001 is provided on the end cap 10.
[0054] The manhole cover 7 is equipped with a locking rod 8, and the manhole cover 7 is placed on the port of the manhole 6. The locking rod 8 is inserted into the locking hole 1001 provided on the end cover 10. The locking rod 8 is provided with a second thread structure, and the second thread structure is adapted to the first thread structure provided on the inner wall of the first locking groove 101 in the lock core 1.
[0055] When locking, the lock cylinder 1 can be inserted into the sleeve 9 from the lower port of the sleeve 9 and connected to the lock rod 8 through the key 2 (the lock rod 8 is inserted into the first lock groove 101 and threadedly connected to it), while forming a limit with the end cover 10; when unlocking, the operation is reversed.
[0056] Preferably, the upper end of the groove wall of the first locking groove 101 is provided with a third chamfer structure 102 to facilitate the insertion of the locking rod 8 into the first locking groove 101.
[0057] According to Embodiments 1 and 2, the locking process of this utility model is as follows:
[0058] When the manhole cover 7 is placed on the port of the manhole 6 and the locking rod 8 is inserted into the lock hole 1001 on the end cover 10, the lock cylinder 1 is first inserted into the sleeve 9 from the lower port of the sleeve 9, and then connected to the locking rod 8 by the key 2. At this time, the lock cylinder 1 and the end cover 10 of the sleeve 9 form a limit, thereby locking the manhole cover 7 on the manhole 6 and playing an anti-theft role. The second lock groove 103 in the lock cylinder 1 is a circular groove. The upper end of the key 2 is provided with a lock cylinder 3 that matches the second lock groove 103. At the same time, the outer ring groove wall and / or inner ring groove wall of the second lock groove 103 are provided with a groove structure 104 along the axial direction. The outer ring wall and / or outer ring wall of the lock cylinder 3 are provided with a protrusion structure 4 along the axial direction. Based on the above design, the lock cylinder 1 can only be connected to the locking rod 8 by using the key 2, which has a better anti-theft effect.
[0059] Of course, the above are only preferred embodiments of this utility model and are not intended to limit the scope of application of this utility model. Therefore, any equivalent changes made to the principle of this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model.
