Definitions
- the present invention relates to an access hatch for an opening such as that of a sub- surface facility. More particularly, but not exclusively, the invention relates to an access hatch for an opening of a pump station.
- Sub-surface facilities such as pump stations require occasional access for inspection and or servicing of equipment. When not in use, it is important that an opening for the facility be securely covered to prevent accidental or unauthorised access to the facility and/or equipment housed therein.
- US 6644342 B1 discloses a modular well for a wastewater lift station that includes multiple well sections. Each of the well sections has at least one mating feature allowing it to be joined to at least one other well section and to form a liquid tight seal. The well is formed by vertically mating the well sections together. One of the well sections has an inlet opening, and the same or a different well section has at least one outlet opening.
- US 4266380 A discloses a high strength cover for an underground utility box of the type that is normally installed on streets and driveways and is subjected to substantial vehicle loads.
- the cover structure includes a fixed rectangular frame the upper edge of which is installed substantially flush with the ground level. Below the ground level the frame defines bearing surfaces throughout the periphery of the frame, the inner edge of the bearing members defining the access opening.
- Two structural frameworks, dimensioned to be, in combination, substantially coextensive with the access opening are provided to span the bearing surfaces.
- the frameworks have sufficient vertical dimensions to afford the necessary strength.
- the frameworks are hinged for pivotal movement about axes along two opposite ends of the frame so that they can be moved to an upright position to afford access to the box.
- Hingedly mounted on a side edge which extends between the end edges of the frame are two cover plates which in combined outlinear form cover the access opening.
- the cover plates are impervious so as to close the access opening and when closed are supported by the subjacent frameworks.
- the cover plates are also provided with brackets which engage the frameworks in the upstanding position so as to form a barrier around three sides of the opening when access to the box is desired.
- US 6640495 B1 discloses an access hatch comprising a frame, a grate, and a pull member pivotally coupled to the grate.
- the frame contains an access opening.
- the grate has a near side and a far side. The near side is coupled to the frame for pivotal movement of the grate between a closed and an open position. In the closed position, the grate lies substantially in the access opening of the frame and blocks at least a portion of the opening. In the open position, the grate is oriented away from the opening of the frame to allow access through the opening.
- the pull member has a proximal end and a distal end.
- the distal end is pivotally coupled to the grate near the far side of the grate, such that the proximal end is moveable away from the grate from a rest position.
- the proximal end extends substantially to the near side of the grate when the proximal end is in the rest position.
- the proximal end is normally in the rest position when the grate is in the closed position.
- a worker, intending to open the grate is prompted to stand at the near side of the grate and grasp the proximal end of the pull member, to pull the grate to the open position.
- FR 2639383 A1 discloses an inspection hatch for underground pipe work of the type comprising a frame of rectangular overall shape intended to be sealed to the edge of the opening of the inspection port with two leaves mounted so that they can tilt on two opposite sides of the frame, characterised in that it comprises two grids mounted so that they are articulated on the frame on two opposite sides adjacent to the ones on which the leaves are articulated, the said grids being mounted so that they are capable of occupying a closed position in which they rest on one another and an open position in which they extend substantially vertically, means being provided for connecting the leaves and the grids in the open position.
- US 5941024 A discloses a floor hatch with a built-in security fence, where access to the understructure can only be provided wherein a pair of doors are pivoted outwardly to an open position and secured, forming two opposite sides of the security fence; a first gate is pivoted outwardly to an open position and secured to each of the doors, forming the rear of the security fence and a second gate, leaving a pivoting door, is pivoted outwardly and secured to each of the doors forming the front of the security fence.
- the pivoting door of the second gate pivots outwardly to permit access to the opening in the floor.
- the floor hatch may also include a security grate and telescoping extension on each of the doors. The floor hatch can be locked in the closed position and can be opened, automatically forming a security fence, to permit access to an understructure of a floor.
- Examples of the invention seek to solve, or at least ameliorate, one or more disadvantages of previous access hatches.
- an access hatch for an opening such as that of a sub-surface facility
- the access hatch having a frame for fitting to the perimeter of the opening, a cover lid pivotally coupled to the frame, and grate segments in pivotable relationship with the frame, wherein the grate segments form two separate sub assemblies, each sub assembly including two collapsible grate segments pivotally connected together, such that the access hatch is manoeuvrable between: a first configuration in which the grate segments extend across the opening and the cover lid is pivoted into a closed position in which it at least substantially covers the grate segments and denies access to the opening;
- the lid in the second configuration, is preferably pivotable to a substantially upright position.
- the grate segments are pivotally coupled to the frame.
- the grate segments are secured within the frame to support the weight of a person.
