Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to a device for underground electric pulse fracturing of hard rock mass based on liquid-electric effect, belonging to the field of rock mass fracturing. Background Art

[0002] In the process of coal mining, as the working face continues to advance, hard rock will appear in front of the working face and the length of the remaining roof in the goaf will continue to increase, which will not only hinder the continued advancement of the working face, but also be affected by the impact of the overlying rock strata and distant rock strata. It is easy to induce roof collapse accidents. Therefore, it is necessary to pre-fracture the hard rock in front of the working face and the overlying rock in the goaf, transform the rock structure and weaken the rock strength, form a weak surface that is conducive to rock destruction, and induce the rock to break and crush in time under the action of mine pressure, accelerate the advancement of the working face and the occurrence of roof accidents. Generally, when encountering rock masses that require greater fracturing strength underground, high-pressure hydraulic fracturing or deep hole blasting are usually used to fracture the rock mass.

[0003] However, these traditional fracturing methods all have certain defects. For example, high-pressure hydraulic fracturing uses water pressure to cause cracks to start and expand, which makes it difficult to seal the hole. At the same time, it is easily affected by the original cracks in the rock mass, causing the overall expansion direction of the cracks to deflect, thus failing to achieve the intended fracturing effect; deep hole blasting requires filling with a large amount of high explosives, which is easy to form a strong shock wave inside the borehole, causing a large stress disturbance to the internal rock formation, and there is a safety hazard of inducing dynamic disasters. In addition, the degree of damage to the surrounding rock around the borehole is relatively large, and it is not easy to achieve directional fracturing. Therefore, in view of the problems existing in the prior art, a new type of rock fracturing device and method is urgently needed, which not only has good mobility and safety, but also has a high controllability of the crack expansion direction. Compared with the traditional fracturing method, it is easier to form effective directional cracks and improve the efficiency of construction. Summary of the invention

[0004] The present invention aims to provide an underground electric pulse fracturing device for hard rock based on the hydroelectric effect, which solves the problem that the hard rock hinders the advancement of the working face and the large-scale collapse of the roof.

[0005] Compared with the previous rock fracturing technology, the present invention applies electric pulse fracturing technology to rock fracturing under the mine. On the basis of realizing directional fracturing, it also has better maneuverability, controllability and safety, and greatly improves work efficiency.

[0006] The present invention provides an underground electric pulse fracturing device for hard rock mass based on the liquid-electric effect, comprising a crawler-type walking chassis, a fixed platform is arranged on the crawler-type walking chassis, and a water storage tank, a cab, a power storage box, a water pipe, a water pump, a hydraulic system, and a rotating box are installed on the fixed platform;

[0007] The hydraulic system includes a hydraulic pump A, a hydraulic pump B, a rear-end fixed hinge support, and a front-end fixed hinge support fixed on a fixed platform; the hydraulic system also includes four connecting rods and four hydraulic cylinders, the lower ends of the two A-group connecting rods are connected to the rear-end fixed hinge support with pins, and the top end of the A-group connecting rod is connected to the bottom end of the B-group connecting rod and the top end of the B-group hydraulic cylinder with a pin through a Y-type joint.

[0008] The bottom end of the hydraulic cylinder of group B is connected to the front fixed hinge support by a pin. The hydraulic pump B supplies oil to and discharges oil from the hydraulic cylinder of group B through the oil inlet pipe of group B and the oil outlet pipe of group B. The hydraulic pump A supplies oil to and discharges oil from the hydraulic cylinder of group A in the same way. The two ends of the hydraulic cylinder of group A are respectively connected to the middle of the connecting rod of group A and the middle of the connecting rod of group B through fixed hinge supports. The rotation locking device is fixed to the top of the connecting rod of group B on the outside. After the rotation locking device is powered on, it can rotate to a certain angle and then lock the angle unchanged. There are protrusions on both sides of the rotating box (27) embedded in the rotation locking device. The rotation locking device can drive the rotating box to rotate to a certain angle and then fix it. A charging and discharging control box is built in the cab, and the charging voltage can be selected between 5kV and 10kV. According to the "Safety Regulations for Coal Mines", the high voltage used in coal mines shall not exceed 10kV.

[0009] Furthermore, a power transmission port, a drilling rig, a drill rod, a high-pressure water pump, and a water pipe are installed in the rotating box. The drill rod runs through the rotating box, and the power transmission port is connected to the power storage box through wires, and electricity can be transmitted to the drilling rig and the device box through the wires; a high-pressure water drilling and cutting integrated drill bit is installed on the top of the drill rod, and a water pipe is connected to the bottom. The middle of the drill rod is a hollow structure, and the water pipe is connected to the bottom of the drill rod; the high-pressure water pump is connected to the water storage tank through the water pipe, and can pump water from the water storage tank, and then transport it to the drill rod through the water pipe, and then the water is transported from the hollow area of ​​the drill rod to the high-pressure water drilling and cutting integrated drill bit and the water outlet.

[0010] Furthermore, the device box is fixed on the outside of the rotating box, and a current limiting protection resistor, an energy storage capacitor, a grounding device, a gas gap switch, a wire retractable tray, and a water pipe are installed in the device box. The energy storage capacitor is composed of multiple groups of capacitors connected in parallel, and the capacitance of the energy storage capacitor can be adjusted by adjusting the connection method. The adjustable range of the capacitor is 20μF~60μF; according to the formula: , , it can be calculated that the energy released by the electric pulse during one impact is in the range of 250kJ~3000kJ, where: E is the initial energy stored in the capacitor, E w is the shock wave energy, C is the capacitance of the energy storage capacitor, U is the charging voltage, is the efficiency of converting initial energy into shock wave energy, The value range is 10%-30%.

[0011] A telescopic tube is fixed on the outside of the device box. The telescopic tube is electrically driven and can be freely adjusted in length. The maximum extension length is 10m. An inflatable rubber plug is installed at the end of the telescopic tube away from the device box. The inside of the telescopic tube is hollow and equipped with a water pipe and an electrode. During the extension and contraction of the telescopic tube, the discharge wire is retracted and released through the wire retracting disk to ensure the normal discharge of the electrode. At the same time, a certain length of water pipe is reserved in the device box.

[0012] Furthermore, the electrode structure includes a high-voltage electrode, a fixing nut, a polypropylene insulating sleeve, a fixing ring, a rubber gasket, an electrode shell, an electrode shell hole, and a grounding electrode. The high-voltage electrode passes through the built-in cavity of the polypropylene insulating sleeve, and is fixed to the polypropylene insulating sleeve by the fixing nut through the high-voltage electrode thread; then the polypropylene insulating sleeve is placed in the built-in cavity of the electrode shell; the polypropylene insulating sleeve and the electrode shell are fixed by the fixing ring; the grounding electrode passes through the grounding end of the electrode shell, and is fixed by the fixing nut through the grounding electrode thread.

[0013] The discharge-induced cracking process is to store energy in the energy storage capacitor. When the charging is completed, the switch is triggered, and the high-voltage pulse is loaded onto the load electrode through the transmission wire. The energy is released between the tip of the high-voltage electrode and the tip of the ground electrode to complete the electric pulse discharge. The energy of the electric pulse can be divided into discharge channel energy, impact energy, radiation energy, and bubble pulsation energy. The generated shock wave energy mainly comes from the impact energy and bubble pulsation energy.

[0014] This embodiment provides the above-mentioned method for underground electric pulse fracturing hard rock mass based on the hydroelectric effect, comprising the following steps:

[0015] Step 1: Before using the device, first determine the stress state of the rock mass by measuring the in-situ stress in the well, formulate a clear fracturing plan, and select the drilling layout location;

[0016] Step 2: Use a 45mm diameter high-pressure water drill and cutter to drill the rock at the selected drilling location. Stop drilling after reaching the specified depth, start the high-pressure water pump, input high-pressure water to the drill bit for cutting, and at the same time, move the drill rod backward to form axial cracks on both sides of the borehole. After the cutting reaches the specified length, stop cutting and withdraw the drill rod.

[0017] Step 3: Supply oil to the hydraulic cylinders of group A and group B through hydraulic pump A and hydraulic pump B respectively, so that their hydraulic columns extend and the height of the rotating box decreases. Remove the drill rod and drill bit, and return oil to the hydraulic cylinders of group A and group B to shorten their hydraulic columns and increase the height of the rotating box.

[0018] Step 4: Adjust the electrode to be vertically upward by rotating the locking device, align the electrode with the center of the borehole, transport the electrode to the specified position in the borehole by adjusting the length of the telescopic tube, and inflate the inflatable rubber plug to seal the borehole.

[0019] Step 5: Start the high-pressure water pump and inject water into the sealed borehole. After the water is filled, turn off the high-pressure water pump and close the water outlet.

[0020] Step six: adjust the energy storage capacitor to the specified capacitance size, operate the charge and discharge control box, charge the energy storage capacitor, and after charging to the specified voltage, turn off the power switch and turn on the electric pulse switch to discharge. The principle of the fracturing is that the discharge fracturing process is to store energy in the energy storage capacitor. When the charging is completed, at the moment of triggering the switch, the high-voltage pulse is loaded onto the load electrode through the transmission wire, and the energy is released at the tip of the high-voltage electrode and the tip of the grounding electrode to complete the electric pulse discharge. The energy of the electric pulse can be divided into discharge channel energy, impact energy, radiation energy, and bubble pulsation energy. The generated shock wave energy mainly comes from impact energy and bubble pulsation energy. The destructive effect of the energy is mainly in the inward extension direction of the slot, and only a small amount of energy acts on both sides of the drilled slot, so effective directional fracturing can be achieved.

[0021] Step 7: Repeat step 5 until the desired cracking effect is achieved, withdraw the electrode, and the construction is completed.

[0022] Beneficial effects of the present invention:
