Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the field of coal mine gas control, especially to the technical field of high-pressure water cutting and punching in a borehole. BACKGROUND

[0002] In the process of coal mining, a large amount of gas is often contained in the coal seam, so measures need to be taken to reduce the gas content of the coal seam before mining to eliminate its danger. Generally, a drilling machine is used to drill a borehole in the coal seam, and gas is extracted through negative pressure. After the gas pressure and content meet the standards, the coal seam can be mined. Due to the poor permeability of the coal seam in China, the influence radius of a single extraction hole is small and difficult to meet the requirements; only relying on automatic release of gas has low efficiency; and it is difficult to meet the production needs. In order to improve the gas extraction efficiency, the most effective method at present is to use high-pressure water jet to cut or punch the coal seam after drilling, thereby expanding the actual influence range of the borehole twice, increasing the borehole radius, and improving the extraction efficiency. Therefore, the drill rod used for drilling needs to be directly used for punching and cutting, and high-pressure water flows through the inside of the drill rod during punching and cutting. In order to ensure that the high-pressure hose successfully enters the continuously rotating drill rod, higher requirements are placed on the water braid at the tail of the drill rod. The water braid not only needs to withstand high pressure of more than 30MPA, but also needs to be dynamically sealed in a rotating state. In addition, the water braid needs to ensure smooth rotation under the premise of ensuring sealing, prevent water from entering the inside of the water braid, prevent internal components from rusting, and require long service life of the sealing element. Due to the large internal pressure, the internal structure must be reasonably stressed to prevent friction between components. SUMMARY

[0007] Further, the inside of the water braid shell is filled with lubricating oil, which plays a lubricating and anti-rust role, can balance the high-pressure water pressure received by the front-end sealing ring, and also has the functions of lubricating the sealing ring and preventing high-pressure water from entering the water braid.

[0008] Further, the bearings inside the water braid shell are a combination of radial force bearings and axial force bearings, the radial force bearings for supporting are two deep groove ball bearings, and the axial force bearing is a thrust ball bearing.

In this example, the right side of the mandrel is connected to the high-pressure hose using a quick-connect coupling commonly used in coal mines, and the left side is connected to the drill rod with a thread matching the tail of the drill rod. The water braid housing (9) and the pressure cap (2) can rotate synchronously under the drive of the drill rod, while the mandrel remains relatively stationary with the high-pressure hose.

[0024] The gland (2) is fixed to the water braid housing (9) by bolts. The gland (2) is provided with a first sealing groove (13) and a second sealing groove (14), on which seal I (3) and seal II (19) are respectively placed to seal the gap between the mandrel (1) and the gland (2) and the gap between the gland (2) and the orifice of the water braid housing (9). Under the combined action of the two seals at the gland (2) and the high-pressure combined seal (8) at the left end of the mandrel, the sealed space formed inside the water braid housing (9) is filled with lubricating oil, which can not only lubricate and prevent rust on the bearing components inside the water braid housing, but also maintain a certain pressure inside the water braid housing to prevent water leakage.

The high pressure combined seal (8) can prevent high pressure water from leaking from the contact between the relatively rotating water braid shell (9) and the left side of the mandrel (1), and prevent the loss of high pressure water pressure. The high pressure water passes through the mandrel water hole (11), the water braid shell water hole (10) and the drill rod in turn from the high pressure rubber pipe to the deep part of the drill hole.
