[0002] Iron roughneck is a tool used for connecting and disassembling pipe columns such as drill pipe, drill collar, oil pipe, casing, and casing milling barrel in oilfield drilling and workover operations. In the existing working process of iron roughneck, a double-V-shaped clamp is generally used to clamp the pipe column with the iron roughneck clamping device, and the pipe column is deformed and damaged due to partial clamping. The clamp teeth are often broken, and the clamping device cannot adapt to the clamping of oil pipes and casings. It is relatively difficult to solve these problems due to the use habit, cost, and other reasons in the oilfield site.

The three jaw oil cylinders are uniformly arranged at 120 degrees for clamping, the pipe string is automatically centered during clamping, the damage of shearing force to the pipe string is cancelled, the bite mark is shallow, and the service life of the jaw is greatly prolonged.
[0011] The jaw adopts dovetail grooves and bolts for fixing and limiting, and can be quickly disassembled.

[0013] The present application can adapt to the clamping of the pipe string with an outer diameter of 73mm-260mm without replacing the jaw seat and the jaw.
[0014] The present application adopts the mode that the piston rod of the jaw oil cylinder is extended for clamping, can well adapt to the small clamping force required by the oil pipe and the casing, can clamp the oil pipe and the casing and does not deform or damage the oil pipe and the casing.
[0015] The jaw oil cylinder adopts a floating installation mode, and can automatically compensate the axial displacement of the clamping device during the connection of the pipe string.
[0016] The piston rod end of the jaw oil cylinder is connected and limited by the support and the connecting rod, so that the jaw oil cylinder can withstand a large torque of 220KN·M during the connection of the pipe string.
[0017] The device can automatically center the pipe string with different diameters when clamping the pipe string with different diameters. DETAILED DESCRIPTION
