Detailed Description of the Invention

[0027] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the drawings. The following embodiments are only used to more clearly illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention and cannot be used to limit the protection scope of the present invention.

[0028] As Figures 1 to 4As shown: This embodiment discloses a multi-isolation and protection combined seal water and gas rotary joint, including a seal chamber assembly and a support and protection assembly. The seal chamber assembly includes a wear-resistant shaft 17 (hollow structure), a seal chamber 15 arranged outside the wear-resistant shaft 17, and a guide pressure ring 23. It can also be understood that the seal chamber 15 is provided with a seal cavity, and the wear-resistant shaft 17 is arranged inside the seal cavity. Among them, a tension spring 16 and a combined seal sleeve are sequentially connected between the wear-resistant shaft 17 and the seal chamber 15. The support and protection assembly includes a guide pressure ring 23, a protective umbrella 5, a protective cover 24, and a base 3. The guide pressure ring 23 and the base 3 are both connected to the ends of the seal chamber 15, and the guide pressure ring 23 is connected to the combined seal sleeve. The seal chamber 15 is also provided with an oil cup three 13 that conducts to the combined seal sleeve.

[0029] For the convenience of assembly and maintenance, in this embodiment, the seal chamber 15 and the base 3 can be connected by a first bolt 10, and the guide pressure ring 23 and the seal chamber 15 can be connected by a second bolt 6.

[0030] The protective umbrella 5 and the protective cover 24 are sleeved on the wear-resistant shaft 17, and the protective umbrella 5 extends towards the protective cover 24 to protect the protective cover 24. A sealing device is provided between the protective cover 24 and the base 3. The end of the wear-resistant shaft 17 conducts to the main shaft 1. The protective cover 24 is preferably connected to the wear-resistant shaft 17 by a thread.

[0031] The combined seal sleeve of this embodiment includes a first pressure ring 21, a first V-shaped sealing ring 14, a first support ring 18, a first combined multi-lip sealing ring 19, a lubricating grid ring 20, a second combined multi-lip sealing ring 191, a second pressure ring 211, a second V-shaped sealing ring 141, and a second support ring 181 that are sequentially connected. The first pressure ring 21 is connected to the tension spring 16, and the second support ring 181 is connected to the guide pressure ring 23. Through the elasticity of the tension spring 16, each sealing member in the above combined seal sleeve is extruded so that it seals inwardly with the wear-resistant shaft 17.

[0032] Furthermore, the guide pressure ring 23 is connected to the second support ring 181 through a stop 232 extending into the seal chamber 15, further improving its sealing performance.

[0033] The connection surface of the lubricating grid ring 20 with the wear-resistant shaft 17 is provided with a lubricating oil groove 201, and the oil cup three 13 conducts to the lubricating oil groove 201. Preferably, the guide pressure ring 23 is also provided with a first lubricating oil passage 231 that conducts to the second support ring 181. The first lubricating oil passage 231 is provided with an oil cup two 9, so that the lubricating oil of the oil cup two 9 can flow to the second support ring 181.

[0034] The outer surface of the wear-resistant shaft 17 is connected to the protective umbrella 5 through a protective umbrella installation groove, that is, a ring groove matching the inner hole of the protective umbrella 5 is provided on the outer surface of the wear-resistant shaft 17, and the protective umbrella 5 is installed inside the ring groove to realize the fixation of the protective umbrella 5.

[0035] In order to further fix the tension spring 16, the tension spring connection end of the sealed cabin 15 in this embodiment is provided with a tension spring groove 151, and the tension spring 16 is connected to the tension spring groove 151. The advantage of the tension spring groove 151 is that the tension spring 16 does not undergo radial displacement, and the coaxiality of the tension spring 16, the wear-resistant shaft 17, and the inner cavity of the sealed cabin 15 is increased.

[0036] The sealing device includes a plurality of sealing grooves 2 32 disposed on the base 3 and a plurality of sealing grooves 1 241 disposed on the protective cover 24 . The plurality of sealing grooves 2 32 and the plurality of sealing grooves 1 241 are connected in an alternating manner to form a labyrinth-type sealing structure.

[0037] A felt ring 25 is further provided between the base 3 and the wear-resistant shaft 17 . The base 3 is provided with a second lubricating oil passage 31 connected to the felt ring 25 . The second lubricating oil passage 31 is further provided with an oil cup 4 .

[0038] During operation, the main shaft 1 and the wear-resistant shaft 17 rotate relative to the sealing cabin 15 and the base 3. During operation, the sealing cabin assembly of this embodiment elastically squeezes each seal in the combined sealing sleeve through the tension spring 16, so that each seal is squeezed toward the wear-resistant shaft 17 and the inner wall of the sealing cabin 15, thereby increasing the sealing performance of the sealing cabin assembly, while also being able to compensate for the wear of the seal and increase the service life of the seal. On the other hand, the sealing cabin assembly is provided with an oil cup 2 9 and an oil cup 3 13, which can provide lubricating oil to the sealing cabin assembly. Two support rings (support ring 1 18, support ring 2 181) can support the wear-resistant shaft 17 and the sealing cabin 15, improve the coaxiality between the wear-resistant shaft 17 and the sealing cabin 15, and avoid the problem of rapid wear of the seals due to poor coaxiality.

[0039] The V-shaped sealing ring 14 and the V-shaped sealing ring 141 can effectively resist the high-pressure medium in the external environment. The two combined multi-lip sealing rings (combined multi-lip sealing ring 19 and combined multi-lip sealing ring 191) are provided with O-shaped sealing rings, which can filter the granular medium in advance and reliably seal the mud medium.

[0040] After the lower support and protection group connect the wear-resistant shaft 17 to the main shaft 1 in sequence, fix the base with the felt ring and oil cup 1 installed on the mounting seat, and then install the protection cover and protection umbrella. The oil cup 1 4 mainly lubricates the felt ring 25 and increases the protection of the labyrinth protection.

[0041] The felt ring 25, the protective cover 24 and the protective umbrella 5 prevent leaked water and gas from entering the power head box through multiple groups of protection.

[0042] This embodiment also provides a drilling machine, comprising the multi-isolation protection combined sealing water and gas rotary joint mentioned above in this embodiment.

[0043] The above are only the preferred embodiments of the present invention. It should be noted that for those of ordinary skill in the art, without departing from the technical principle of the present invention, several improvements and modifications can be made, and these improvements and modifications should also be regarded as the protection scope of the present invention.
