AI Technical Summary
Existing trench covers are easily damaged and displaced when subjected to vehicle and mechanical pressure, making it difficult to simultaneously meet the requirements of strength and ease of disassembly.
A novel trench cover is designed, employing an arched groove, honeycomb holes, and steel mesh structure, combined with steel bars and reinforcing bars to form an integrated concrete structure, ensuring structural strength. The honeycomb holes facilitate disassembly and connection of the grooves, improving stability.
While saving materials, it enhances the structural strength of the cover plate, prevents damage, and facilitates disassembly and installation, ensuring the stability of the cover plate and preventing displacement.

Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of pipe trench technology, and in particular to a novel pipe trench cover. Background Technology
[0002] Pipe trenches, also known as underground utility trenches, are mainly used in municipal construction. Their function is to accommodate two or more municipal utility pipelines (including water supply, reclaimed water, heating, electricity, telecommunications, etc.) in an intensive and integrated manner.
[0003] During the construction of the trench, the upper part is left open to facilitate the installation of internal pipelines and the inspection and maintenance of the construction site. After the pipeline installation is completed, a cover plate is laid on top to cover it.
[0004] Based on the above, the design of the trench cover must first ensure its load-bearing strength to prevent damage from vehicles or machinery passing overhead. Simultaneously, while ensuring ease of disassembly, it must also prevent easy displacement during normal installation and use. Therefore, we propose a novel trench cover. Utility Model Content
[0005] The purpose of this utility model is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies by proposing a new type of trench cover.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:
[0007] A novel trench cover includes a plate body, with an arched groove provided on the lower side of the plate body, and adjacent arched grooves forming a support leg.
[0008] The plate has honeycomb holes distributed on its surface, and a honeycomb-shaped steel mesh is provided on the plate based on the honeycomb holes.
[0009] The plate body is provided with steel bars inside around its perimeter, and the ends of adjacent steel bars are welded together. The ends of the steel mesh are also welded to adjacent steel bars.
[0010] Preferably, the interior of the arched groove of the plate is provided with an arched reinforcing bar, and the middle part of the reinforcing bar is tied to the middle part of the corresponding reinforcing bar.
[0011] Preferably, the plate is a concrete cast-in-place plate.
[0012] Preferably, the plate, steel mesh, steel bars, and reinforcing bars form an integral concrete structure.
[0013] Preferably, the bottom of the support leg is provided with a connecting slot.
[0014] The novel trench cover proposed in this utility model has the following advantages: During the application of this technical solution, the presence of the arched groove makes the side of the cover body arched, thus saving construction materials while ensuring the structural strength of the side of the cover body; furthermore, the presence of steel mesh, steel rods, and reinforcing steel bars ensures the structural strength of the entire cover, making it less prone to damage when faced with vehicle or mechanical crushing; at the same time, the presence of honeycomb holes further saves construction materials.
[0015] The presence of honeycomb holes facilitates the removal and installation of the cover plate, as well as its disassembly during inspection and maintenance. Furthermore, during the actual construction process, when a connecting post head matching the connecting slot is installed on the upper part of the pipe trench, the cooperation between the connecting slot and the connecting post head ensures the stability of the cover plate relative to the pipe trench and prevents displacement during use.

[0022] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments.
[0023] In the description of this utility model, it should be understood that the terms "upper", "lower", "front", "rear", "left", "right", "top", "bottom", "inner", "outer", etc., indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings. They are only for the convenience of describing this utility model and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this utility model.
[0024] Reference Figure 1-5 A novel trench cover includes a plate body 1, an arched groove 2 is provided on the lower side of the plate body 1, and a support leg 3 is formed between adjacent arched grooves 2. A connecting slot 8 is provided at the bottom of the support leg 3.
[0025] The surface of the slab 1 is provided with honeycomb holes 4, and a honeycomb-shaped steel mesh 5 is provided on the slab 1 based on the honeycomb holes 4.
[0026] The interior of the plate 1 is provided with steel bars 6 around its perimeter. The ends of adjacent steel bars 6 are welded together, and the ends of the steel mesh 5 are welded together with the adjacent steel bars 6.
[0027] The interior of the arched groove 2 of the slab 1 is provided with an arched reinforcing steel bar 7. The middle part of the reinforcing steel bar 7 is tied to the middle part of the corresponding reinforcing bar 6. The slab 1 is a concrete slab. The slab 1, the reinforcing mesh 5, the reinforcing bar 6, and the reinforcing steel bar 7 form an integrated concrete structure. Therefore, it can be poured in one go during the manufacturing process, making construction simple and convenient.
[0028] In summary, in this utility model, due to the presence of the arched groove 2, the side of the plate 1 is arched, thus ensuring the structural strength of the side of the plate 1 while saving construction materials.
[0029] Furthermore, the presence of steel mesh 5, steel rods 6, and reinforcing steel bars 7 ensures the structural strength of the entire cover plate, making it less susceptible to damage when subjected to vehicle or mechanical crushing; at the same time, the presence of honeycomb holes 4 further saves construction materials.
[0030] The presence of honeycomb holes 4 facilitates the removal and installation of the cover plate, as well as its disassembly during inspection and maintenance. In the actual construction process, when a connecting post head matching the connecting slot hole 8 is installed on the upper part of the pipe trench, the cooperation between the connecting slot hole 8 and the connecting post head can ensure the stability of the cover plate relative to the pipe trench and prevent displacement during use.
