[0002] Shale reservoir volume fracturing is a technology for improving shale oil mining efficiency. Since shale reservoirs have the characteristics of low porosity and low permeability, traditional mining methods cannot effectively mine shale oil. Therefore, through volume fracturing technology, a complex fracture network can be formed in the shale reservoir, thereby increasing the permeability of the reservoir and improving the mining efficiency of shale oil. The horizontal wellbore is a commonly used wellbore type in volume fracturing technology. In order to study shale reservoir volume fracturing, shale reservoir volume fracturing simulation experiments are often conducted.

The traditional formation simulation device lacks an inclination adjusting device, and cannot automatically adjust the angle between the simulated formation and the horizontal plane.

[0046] The working principle of the flipping adjustment mechanism in the device of this invention is as follows:
[0047] Open valve 16 connected to the first hose 17. Driven by plunger pump 14, liquid in storage tank 12 enters the first chamber of connecting cylinder 6 through the first hose 17, check valve 27, and inlet port 25. Then, it enters the second chamber from the first chamber through through hole 31, and then flows back to storage tank 12 through outlet port 26, check valve 27, and return hose 21. After entering the first chamber, the liquid drives impeller 28 to rotate. Impeller 28 drives first shaft 29 to rotate, which in turn drives worm gear 36 to rotate. Through the meshing transmission between worm gear 36 and worm wheel 39, the electric telescopic plug is driven to rotate until the end of plug rod 50 is aligned with plug hole 42. Through the elastic force of spring 53, plug rod 50 is inserted into plug hole 42, thereby realizing the connection between gear component and electric telescopic plug. The rotation of the electric telescopic plug drives the second rotating shaft 40 to rotate, and then drives the third rotating shaft 44 to rotate through the meshing transmission between the first bevel gear 41 and the second bevel gear 43. This in turn drives the first synchronous pulley 45, the synchronous belt 46, the second synchronous pulley 47 and the fourth rotating shaft 49 to rotate, causing the screw 35 to rotate, which in turn causes the movable column 24 to rotate, thus adjusting the inclination angle between the simulated reservoir cavity and the horizontal plane.
[0048] To disconnect one of the electrically operated telescopic inserts from the gear assembly, the electromagnet 51 in the insert is energized, magnetically attracting the end of the iron column 52. Simultaneously, the spring 53 is stretched, separating the insert rod 50 from the insertion hole 42, thus disconnecting the electrically operated telescopic insert from the gear assembly. When the power is off, the iron column 52 loses its magnetic attraction. Driven by the spring force of the spring 53, the iron column 52 and the insert rod 50 move, pressing the end of the insert rod 50 against the insertion hole 42 at the end of the second shaft 40 of the gear assembly, thus connecting the electrically operated telescopic insert to the gear assembly. The design of two electric telescopic plugs allows for selective connection of the two gear components. Due to the symmetrical arrangement of the two gear components, the first rotating shaft 29 is driven by liquid flow to rotate in one direction. After selective connection, the third rotating shaft 44 of the two gear components can rotate in opposite directions, driving the screw 35 to rotate in two directions. Through threaded transmission with the screw hole on the movable column 24, and with the guidance of the guide bar 34 and the guide groove, the movable column 24 can slide along the length of the straight cylinder 7 to adjust the overall length and realize the telescopic adjustment of the telescopic rod. During the telescopic extension and retraction of the telescopic rod, pushing the movable plate 3 can adjust the angle between the simulated reservoir cavity and the horizontal plane.
