Definitions

  • the invention relates to a manhole closure device or inspection system comprising at least one covering element (buffer or grid) articulated on a support frame.
  • chimney closure devices to visit or inspect an underground water network, such as manholes pavements or sidewalks
  • closing devices of technical rooms inspection of an underground cable network such as hatches
  • devices crowning of manholes such as road grilles
  • the covering element is mounted pivoting on the frame, which facilitates the opening and closing of this element, limits the risk of accident during these operations and avoids lifting the covering element during the passage of a heavy vehicle generating a vertical suction.
  • the covering element must be able to be removed (removed), which implies a removable hinge; however, the mounting method of this hinge does not must not allow removal or opening of the element if it is otherwise locked, for example by lifting the element in the region of the hinge.
  • the document EP 0 084 510 shows such a device improved in integrating the guiding means at the hinge, which makes it possible to have a guiding from the start of the closure of the covering element;
  • the solution described consists in providing the articulation axis of the frame and an articulation fork of the buffer of complementary profiles whose cooperation ensures the guiding of the tilting.
  • the continuous curved shapes of the profiles complementary do not prohibit any longitudinal movement of the element of overlap in the frame in particular towards the edge thereof which is opposite to the articulation axis, and it is necessary to provide means for additional positioning in V.
  • the object of the invention is to remedy these drawbacks, and more specifically to create a manhole closure device or inspection comprising a frame and at least one covering element adapted to be carried by this frame, in which the closing movement of the element is guided along its entire travel and the positioning of the element in closed position is ensured by hinge means of articulation without the need to provide additional positioning means.
  • the invention also aims to create such an improved device to allow removal of the cover element by lifting this provided you tilt it a few degrees, which is possible only in the case of a non-locking or unlocked element.
  • the invention therefore relates to a manhole closure device. visit or inspection, comprising a frame, at least one element of cover adapted to be carried by the frame, as well as means of articulation of the element relative to the frame, the means of articulation comprising at least one pivot extending transversely in at least one alveolus formed in a wall surrounding the frame, and at least one stud protrusion at the periphery of the element, the post being adapted to extend in the socket and comprising a fork provided with two branches which, in the position of closure of the element on the frame, extend one above the pivot beyond of it towards the bottom of the cell and the other below the pivot in below the upper branch, characterized in that the fork and the pivot have facing sliding surfaces adapted to slide one against the other when the element is pivoted around the pivot, and one of the organs that are the upper branch and the pivot comprises at least one retaining recess and the other at least one retaining lug at least partially housed in the recess when the element is in the closed position to then prevent
  • the element is guided over its entire closing stroke and in addition its longitudinal positioning in the closed position is ensured.
  • the branch extending in the closed position below of the pivot then has its free end below the pivot.
  • the pivot has a generally cylindrical shape centered on an axis extending transversely to the cell, and the branch extending in closed position below the pivot then extends only below the axis of articulation.
  • the viewing device shown in FIG. 1 in the position of closure is made of ductile iron and has a frame 1, and, inside this frame, a buffer or several buffers 2 juxtaposed (here two buffers) forming covering elements.
  • the frame 1 includes a surrounding wall 11 of the element or elements covering, which has a face 111 facing inward, and relief reliefs (not shown in the drawings) integral with the inner face of the wall entourage which support the element (s) 2.
  • Each covering element has a edge 21 which, in closed position, is facing the face 111 of the frame facing the interior thereof, and a face 22 which, in the same position, is approximately horizontal and extends to the top of the element.
  • the viewing device can be released for a visit or of an inspection, by pivoting of the covering element (s) 2, or by removing this or these elements, it is provided with means of articulation around an axis 12, forming a removable hinge.
  • These articulation means comprise one or more cells 13 each formed by a recess in the surrounding wall 11 of the frame, and one or more studs 23 carried by each element 2, these studs extending projecting from edge 21 that is to say at the periphery of the element and being positioned and sized to extend into the alveoli when the element rests on the frame in order to maintain an access opening which is maximum; they also include, in each cell, at least one pivot 14 of generally cylindrical shape extending transversely to the cell, by example a through pivot or one or two pivots carried by the walls lateral of the cell; each element 2 is thus articulated relative to the frame by one or more pivots aligned along the same articulation axis 12.
  • the lug 23 has a fork with two branches extending into the socket, one above the other, approximately longitudinally when the element 2 is in the closed position; branch upper then extends above the pivot 14 beyond it in the direction of the bottom 15 of the recess in the surrounding wall 11 constituting the cell 13 (so seen here in horizontal direction), and the lower branch below of the pivot preferably below the upper branch, so that it is not necessary to reach a vertical open position of the element to ability to disassemble hinge and remove it.
  • the facing surfaces 231, 232 of the legs of the fork being intended to slide or likely to have to slide against facing surfaces of the pivot 14 during a pivotally guided pivoting of the element 2 around the pivot, and the pivot having a generally cylindrical shape, these surfaces in look extend approximately parallel and horizontally when the element is in the closed position, at a greater distance from each other to the diameter of the pivot, and are connected by a rounded surface 233 constituting the bottom of the fork.
  • the branch upper has a retaining recess 234 extending into the bottom of the fork or several successive recesses 234 spaced one after the other in the transverse direction of the cell, and the pivot or pivots have a or more retaining pins 141 projecting upwards each at least partially housed in a recess 234 when the element is in the position of closing ( Figure 2A); the recess (s) do not extend or extend little beyond the pivot in the direction of the free end of the upper branch, and end in this region by an inclined surface close to the vertical, at immediate proximity to the lug; in the opposite direction, the recess 234 extends to the bottom of the fork and ends at the birth of the lower branch; lug 141 carried by the pivot and partially housed in the recess 234 when the element 2 is in the closed position therefore prevents the translation of the element in the direction of the distance of the stud 23 relative to the bottom 15 of cell 13, and thus prevents the free end of the branch lower comes below the
  • the recess (s) 234 of the fork (for example two recesses) and the corresponding lug (s) 141 of the pivot are made at one or more lateral end regions of the fork and the steerer respectively, especially for reasons of machining convenience, but this feature is not mandatory.
  • the pivot 14 has a recess or several retaining recesses 142 spaced in succession in the transverse direction of the cell 13 (longitudinal direction of the pivot) made opposite the bottom 15 of the cell 13;
  • the upper branch of the fork has one or more retaining pins 235 projecting downwards each at least partially housed in a recess 142 when the element is in the closed position ( Figure 3A);
  • the lug (s) 235 then extend, in the direction of the free end of the branch, beyond the pivot 14, and the walls in opposite the bottom of the recess 142 and the lug 235 are slightly inclined in the opposite direction when the element is in the closed position (the wall of the lug being inclined downwards towards the bottom 15 of the cell and that of the recess down in the opposite direction);
  • the lug carried by the branch upper and partially housed in the recess when the element is in position closing therefore prevents the translation of element 2 in the direction of the distance of the post 23 relative to the bottom 15 of the cell
  • the fork comprises a lug 235 approximately central corresponding, but this characteristic is not not mandatory.
  • the pivot 14 further comprises one or more guide pins lower 143 slightly protruding from the periphery of the pivot, in a direction making an angle of about 45 ° with the vertical and tilted downwards towards the interior of the frame; the distance from the free end of these pins guide 143 to the hinge pin 12 is approximately equal (generally slightly less) than the half-diagonal of the square circumscribed at circle defining the shape of the right cross section of the pivot.
  • the guide pin 143 facilitates the closing of the element 2 and forces the retaining lug to be positioned in the corresponding recess, by following its cooperation with the sliding surface 232 of the branch lower fork during the closing movement; furthermore in these embodiments, the upper branch has at its free end, at near the bottom of the socket 13, a tooth 236 projecting downwards when element 2 is in the closed position.
  • cover element 2 can only be removed when it is in almost vertical position of full opening.
  • the terminal inclined surfaces of the recesses located opposite lugs have the advantage, by giving a little play, of ensuring that the retaining pins 141 do not oppose the quasi-horizontal removal; if we do not wish to obtain this quasi-horizontal removal, these inclined surfaces are useless.
