[0048] Specifically, in order to solve the above-mentioned technical problem that the casing is easily damaged due to the lack of sealing at the tubing joint, the tubing joint packer proposed in this embodiment mainly includes two parts, namely: a tubing joint 2 and a packer body 1; wherein the upper end of the tubing joint 2 is used to connect the upper joint tubing, and the lower end thereof is connected to the packer body 1. Figure 3 -Attached Figure 5 The packer body 1 includes a mandrel 11, and the upper end of the mandrel 11 has two bosses 1101, which can be specifically configured as two fan-shaped bosses 1101 spaced 90 degrees apart and symmetrically distributed about the body of the mandrel 11 (see attached Figure 3); the upper and lower ends of the core shaft 11 are respectively connected with a long pressure cap 12 and a guide shoe 13, and the outside of the core shaft 11 is sequentially sleeved with a pressure cylinder 14, an open pressure sleeve 15, a spacer sleeve 16, an upper auxiliary rubber cylinder 17, an upper spacer ring 18, a sealing rubber cylinder 19, a lower spacer ring 110 and a lower auxiliary rubber cylinder 111 from the long pressure cap 12 to the guide shoe 13; wherein, the long pressure cap 12 can be processed by 42CrMo / 35CrMo alloy steel material, and the lower end surface of the long pressure cap 12 is pressed and held with the variable diameter area of ​​the pressure cylinder 14; the upper end of the pressure cylinder 14 is used to connect the lower end of the oil pipe joint 2, and the lower end of the pressure cylinder 14 is circumferentially fixed to the core shaft 11 by a plurality of shear pins 112. Specifically, 6 threaded holes 1402 can be evenly arranged along the axial direction at the lower end of the pressure cylinder 14 for installing 6 shear pins 112 to achieve fixation with the core shaft 11, but the number of threaded holes 1402 and shear pins 112 is not limited. Limited to this; the upper end of the open pressing sleeve 15 has an open groove 1501 that cooperates with the boss 1101, so that the upper end of the open pressing sleeve 15 passes through the boss 1101, so that its upper end surface is held on the lower end surface of the pressing cylinder 14, and the upper end surface of the open pressing sleeve 15 is spaced a preset distance from the upper end surface of the boss 1101, so that the downward pressure of the pressing cylinder 14 can be transmitted through the open buckle pressing sleeve, and the open pressing sleeve 15 can slide relative to the core shaft 11. The distance between the boss 1101 on the core shaft 11 and the upper end surface of the open pressing sleeve 15 can, on the one hand, provide a downward stroke for the pressing cylinder 14, and on the other hand, limit the downward stroke of the pressing cylinder 14. When the lower end surface of the pressing cylinder 14 is held on the upper end surface of the boss 1101 of the core shaft 11, the downward stroke is in place, which can prevent the sealing rubber cylinder 19 from being squeezed and destroyed. The preset distance can be specifically set according to actual conditions and is not specifically limited here.

[0049] Specifically, in order to save processing costs, refer to the attached Figure 6 The tubing joint 2 can be composed of two parts, namely: a coupling 21 and a variable buckle short section 22, wherein the coupling 21 is provided with internal threads at opposite ends thereof, respectively, for connecting the upper butt tubing and the variable buckle short section 22; the variable buckle short section 22 is provided with external threads at opposite ends thereof, respectively, for connecting the internal threads at the lower end of the coupling 21 and the internal threads at the upper end of the pressure cylinder 14 of the packer body 1.

[0050] For details, please refer to the attached Figure 3, the length of the core shaft 11 can be set to about 1.5-2m, which can ensure that after the packer body 1 is inserted into the lower docking oil pipe 3, it will not fall out of the lower docking oil pipe 3 when the pipe string is extended or retracted, thereby ensuring the reliability of the seal at the oil pipe docking point; since the length of the core shaft 11 is relatively long, the required length of the spacer 16 is also relatively long. For ease of processing, the spacer 16 can be divided into two parts for processing, namely a first spacer 161 and a second spacer 162. The lengths of the first spacer 161 and the second spacer 162 can be equal, or the lengths of the first spacer 161 and the second spacer 162 can also be unequal. No specific limitation is made here, and it can be set according to actual conditions.

[0051] When performing the sealing operation, the lower end external thread of the upper butt-jointed oil pipe is connected with the upper end internal thread of the coupling 21 of the oil pipe joint 2, and tightened according to the specified torque; the connected tool string is lowered to the top of the lower butt-jointed oil pipe 3, and the butt-jointed oil pipe packer is slowly inserted into the lower butt-jointed oil pipe 3. After it is in place, the diameter-changing position of the packer (the boss 1101 of the mandrel 11) will be supported on the top (fish top) of the lower butt-jointed oil pipe 3, and the shear pin 112 connected to the pressure cylinder 14 and the mandrel 11 by pressing down the upper butt-jointed oil pipe to a preset value. When shearing, the pressure cylinder 14 moves downward, driving the open pressure sleeve 15 and the spacer sleeve 16 to move downward, thereby squeezing the upper auxiliary rubber cylinder 17, the upper spacer ring 18, the sealing rubber cylinder 19, the lower spacer ring 110 and the lower auxiliary rubber cylinder 111, so that the sealing rubber cylinder 19 can be attached to the inner wall of the lower docking oil pipe 3, thereby completing the sealing operation, and the oil pipe docking position can be sealed, such as anchoring the pipe string with a hydraulic anchor, and various subsequent downhole operation measures can be carried out, which can be applied to downhole operations such as oil and gas well fracturing and acidizing, production increase treatment, well repair operations, and old well reconstruction.

[0052] According to the above, an embodiment of the present invention proposes a tubing docking packer, which is connected to the bottom of the upper docking tubing, and after being lowered into the well and inserted into the lower docking tubing 3 that needs to be docked, the upper docking tubing is pressed down by the support of the top of the lower docking tubing, and the tubing docking packer can be reliably sealed, and a reliable seal can be formed at the tubing docking point, thereby effectively avoiding damage to the technical casing caused by the unsealed docking point; and when operating the tubing docking packer, it only needs to press the upper docking tubing down to a specified pressure value, and the tubing docking packer can start to seal, without the need for additional operation, the operation method is simple and reliable, and the structure is simple, the processing difficulty is low, and the tool cost can be reduced.
