The power head is driven by a winch and a crane, which requires a complex traction system and components such as a crane and a winch, resulting in a relatively complicated structure of the entire device. 2. The power head clamps the drill rod from the middle, resulting in a shorter downward stroke of the entire drill rod, making it impossible to use a single long drill rod; 3. During the drill rod splicing process, the drill rod needs to be lifted by a crane and then spliced ​​with several workers. In this way, the whole process is dangerous and the labor intensity of the workers is very high.

[0003] Based on the above reasons, there are still areas for improvement in the use of current drilling rigs. Summary of the invention

[0006] The circulating drilling rig with automatic drill pipe splicing and overhead power head, the drill pipe splicing module includes an orifice plate located at the lower part of the mast, the orifice plate is mechanically opened and closed by an oil cylinder, a drill pipe bracket is arranged beside the orifice plate, the drill pipe bracket is used to lift the horizontal drill pipe and turn it to a vertical state after being clamped, and then the power head is rotated and pressurized to realize the splicing of each drill pipe; the splicing adopts automatic rotation of the power head.

[0007] The circulating drilling rig with automatic drill pipe connection and overhead power head, the orifice plate and the drill pipe support are arranged on the same bottom support, the bottom support is located below the mast, one end of the drill pipe support is rotatably connected to the bottom support, and the other end of the drill pipe support is rotatably connected to the bottom support through an oil cylinder, so that the drill pipe support can rotate around the bottom support under the drive of the oil cylinder.

[0008] In the above-mentioned circulating drilling rig with automatic drill pipe splicing and overhead power head, the orifice plate remains closed when the drill pipe is connected to the power head, so that the drill pipe to be spliced ​​is clamped and lifted to a vertical state through the drill pipe bracket, and then the drill pipe is placed on the orifice plate. At this time, the power head moves downward and clamps the drill pipe, and then the orifice plate opens, and the power head moves downward into the hole with the clamped drill pipe to operate or splice different drill pipes by rotating the power head.

[0009] The above-mentioned circulation drilling rig proposed by the present invention has several major advantages: 1. Compared with the existing technology, the drill pipe splicing module is used to realize the drill pipe splicing operation, thereby greatly reducing the work intensity of on-site operators and even enabling all-weather operation.

[0010] 2. The overhead crane and the matching winch in the traditional mast system are omitted, thus simplifying the structure of the whole machine. At the same time, the circulating drilling rig proposed by the present invention can achieve a large range of drill rod delivery under the premise of low clearance.

[0011] 3. Clamp the drill rod from the top so that the length of a single drill rod can be ~; combined with a chain-driven power head, high-rigidity and long-stroke drill rod delivery capabilities can be achieved.

[0012] Furthermore, in order to facilitate the drill rod splicing operation, a crane is arranged on the traveling chassis, and the crane cooperates with the drill rod support in the drill rod splicing module to position and put the drill rod to be spliced ​​into place.
