The lid of a manhole provided in a sewer or the like is provided with a vent hole penetrating in the thickness direction, and gas such as methane gas generated from sewage is discharged from the manhole to the atmosphere through the vent hole. It is discharged inside. Since only the gas needs to pass through the vent holes, it is necessary to make the openings small, but if the openings are small, the vent holes may be blocked by sand or dust. Therefore, in the present situation, the ventilation holes are made to have a considerably large size of, for example, φ14 mm.
However, in such a large vent hole, there is a problem that rainwater flows into the manhole from the vent hole in the case of rain and the like to increase the amount of dirty water.

By the way, in recent years, a resin material whose volume expands to several times or more of that when it is dried by water absorption has been developed, and its application is actively developed. Therefore, the inventors of the present invention recalled that the resin material was provided in the vent hole of the manhole, and repeated experiments. However, since this resin material has the characteristics that the water absorption rate is slow and the water once absorbed does not release easily, it takes a long time until the vent hole is closed in rainy weather, and it takes a very long time to open it once it is closed. Became clear.

Further, the manhole cover of the third invention is formed of a resin capable of reversibly absorbing / releasing water in the vent hole or at a position facing the opening of the vent hole, and protrudes inward in the radial direction. It is characterized in that it has a plurality of needle-like projections, and that the ventilation holes are opened during drying and closed by swelling due to water absorption of the needle-like projections in rainy weather. As the resin capable of reversibly absorbing / releasing water, a highly water-absorbent resin can be used. Examples of the super absorbent polymer include isobutylene / maleic anhydride copolymer system, polyacrylate salt system, starch / acrylic acid graft copolymer system,
Various resins such as polyethylene oxide type, carboxymethyl cellulose type, starch / acrylonitrile graft copolymer saponified type, etc. can be selected and used.

If the superabsorbent resin alone cannot provide sufficient performance in terms of physical properties such as strength, it can be used as a mixture with a thermoplastic resin. By doing so, it becomes possible to manufacture by injection molding or the like, and productivity is also improved. When a super absorbent polymer is used, the water absorption rate and the water release rate are slow, and it takes a long time to close and open the mouth. Therefore, in the first aspect of the present invention, the resin member is formed of a foam having open cells in at least a part thereof. It is desirable that the whole is open cells. By doing so, the contact area of the resin member with the atmosphere and water is dramatically increased, and the water absorption rate and the water absorption rate of the absorbed water are improved.

To form a resin member having open cells in this manner, a conventionally known technique such as a known foam molding method or a method in which water-soluble particles are mixed and the particles are eluted after molding is utilized. be able to. Further, in the second aspect of the invention, the regulation member that regulates the expansion of the resin member is provided on the surface of the resin member. As a result, at the time of absorbing water, the resin member selectively expands in one direction that closes the vent hole, so that the time until closing is shortened and the amount of water flowing into the manhole can be further reduced. The restricting member is not particularly limited as long as it restricts the movement of expansion in a direction other than the direction of reducing the diameter of the vent hole of the resin member, metal,
It can be formed of resin, rubber or the like.

It is desirable that the regulating member is formed of, for example, a porous body so that moisture can pass through but the expansion and deformation of the resin member can be regulated. By doing so, the closing speed and the opening speed can be further increased. Further, in the third invention, the resin member is composed of a plurality of needle-like protrusions. Since the needle-shaped protrusions are easily deformed by bending, the air holes are prevented from being closed because the needle-shaped protrusions are deformed by the weight of stones and the stones are dropped inside. Further, since the needle-like protrusions have a large surface area, they easily absorb water and release water, and the time required for swelling and closing the mouth and the time required for drying and opening are shortened.

The resin member may be formed integrally with the lid main body of the manhole, or may be fixed to the ventilation hole formed in the lid main body later by fitting or the like. The latter configuration has the advantage that it can be easily attached to the lid of an already installed manhole and the existing lid of the manhole can be used as it is.

In the manhole cover of the first aspect of the present invention, a foamed resin member having open cells at least partially and capable of reversibly absorbing / releasing water is arranged in the vent hole or at a position facing the opening of the vent hole. ing. When rainwater or the like comes into contact with the foamed resin member, the surface area of the open cells is extremely large. Therefore, the foamed resin member quickly absorbs rainwater and swells, and the expansion quickly closes the ventilation hole to prevent inflow of rainwater. .

When the rain stops, the absorbed water is promptly released into the atmosphere preferentially from the open-cell portion having a large surface area. Therefore, the foamed resin member quickly contracts due to the release of water, and the vent hole opens, so that the gas in the manhole can escape. In the second aspect of the present invention, the regulation member that regulates expansion in a direction other than the direction in which the diameter of the vent hole of the resin member is reduced is provided on the surface of the resin member. As a result, at the time of absorbing water, the resin member selectively expands in one direction that closes the vent hole, so that the time until closing is shortened and the amount of water flowing into the manhole can be further reduced.

Further, if the regulating member is formed of a porous material through which moisture can pass, the contact between the resin member and rainwater or the atmosphere is not hindered, so that the closing speed by water absorption is further increased and water is released. The opening speed can also be increased. If the resin member is made of the foamed resin member according to the first aspect of the present invention, the time required for closing and opening can be further shortened.

In the third invention, the resin member is composed of a plurality of needle-like protrusions. Therefore, since the surface area is extremely large, the water absorption rate and the water release rate are large, and the time required for closing and opening is shortened. Also, if a stone, etc., rides on the needle-shaped protrusions, the needle-shaped protrusions bend and elastically deform, causing the stones to fall into the manhole, and small foreign matter such as sand will leave a gap between the needle-shaped protrusions. Since it falls into the manhole from above, it is possible to prevent the ventilation hole from being blocked.

The resin member 2 has a shape corresponding to the shape of the vent hole 10, and five through holes 20 of φ5 mm penetrating in the thickness direction are arranged in a row in the longitudinal direction. A ring-shaped flange portion 21 that protrudes in the outer peripheral direction is formed on the front surface side. In the manhole cover of the present invention configured as described above, the through hole 20 and open cells (not shown) are normally opened, so that the gas generated from the sewage passes through the resin member 2 and is discharged to the outside. . When the rainwater comes into contact with the resin member 2 in rainy weather or the like, the rainwater is quickly absorbed in the continuous bubbles, so that the resin member 2 swells quickly. Moreover, since the outer peripheral portion is restricted from being deformed by the ventilation hole 10, the expansion caused by water absorption is concentrated on the deformation that narrows the through hole 20. As a result, the through hole 20 is closed and rainwater or the like is prevented from flowing into the manhole from the through hole 20.

In this embodiment, the needle-like protrusions 51 and the needle-like protrusions 5 are provided.
Since the two are formed at positions where they do not overlap, rainwater uniformly contacts all the needle-like protrusions and the needle-like protrusions 51, 52 are formed.
Absorbs water and expands. Then, due to the expansion, the needle-like protrusions 51 and 52 that are close to each other in the vertical and horizontal directions come into contact with each other, and the vent hole 10 is closed. Further, when the rain stops, the needle-like protrusions 51 and 52 quickly release water and contract due to their large surface area, and the vent holes 10 are opened. And stones are needle-shaped projections 5.
When the needle-like projections 51 and 52 are placed on the needles 1, 52, the stones fall into the manhole because the needle-like projections 51 and 52 bend downward, and fine foreign matters such as sand fall from between the needle-like projections 51 and 52. Therefore, since the vent hole 10 is prevented from being blocked by foreign matter, the gas in the manhole is released by the needle-like protrusions 51, 5
It will take place smoothly between the two.
