The invention relates to a prying and lifting device for a cable inspection well cover, and belongs to the technical field of power transmission and distribution engineering. The prying and lifting device consists of a prying bar 1 and a lifting handle 8. The lifting handle 8 is inserted in the rod body 2 of the prying bar 1. The prying bar 1 consists of the rod body 2, a tie bar 3, a pillar 4, a base 5, a lifting chain 6 and a cover hook 7. The front end of the rod body 2 is hinged to the lifting chain 6, and the lifting chain 6 is hinged to the cover hook 7. The support pillar 4 is welded at the front part of the rod body 2. The base 5 vertically staggered with the rod body 2 is welded at the bottom of the support pillar 4. The tie bar 3 is welded between the base 5 and the rod body 2 in front of and at the back of the support pillar 4. The lifting handle 8 is formed by welding a handle body 9 and an inverted L-shaped plate 10. The cover hook 7 is inserted in a inspection well cover hole, the base 5 is taken as a supporting point, and the inspection well cover is lifted by pressing the tail end of the rod body 2 downwards; the inspection well cover is clamped by a bayonet of the lifting handle 8, and the lifting handle 8 is hold with hands to pull up and turn over the inspection well cover. The cable inspection well cover is easily opened, so that the device is safe, reliability and high in work efficiency. The prying and lifting device is used for opening inspection well covers such as cable inspection well covers.
