Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of coal mine sampling, and relates to a deep-hole fixed-point airtight sampling device and method for coal mines. Background Art

[0002] Determination of coal seam gas content is required for area prediction of coal mining faces and evaluation of drainage effects. With the popularization of directional long boreholes, the need for deep-hole sampling has become more obvious. In the prior art, for example, Chinese Patent with publication number CN107806341B discloses a deep-hole fixed-point airtight sampling device and sampling method for coal mines. It adopts a three-cylinder structure design of inner, middle, and outer cylinders. During the core drilling process, the core outer cylinder drives the core bit to drill coal samples, and the coal core enters the core inner cylinder through the core thin-wall bit and the ball valve. After reaching the core length, drilling stops, and high-pressure water is introduced. The high-pressure water acts on the cut-off valve after passing through the check valve. When the water pressure generates a thrust to cut the pin, the cut-off valve and the core middle cylinder move forward, driving the ball valve switch and the ball valve to rotate, thereby cutting off the core coal column and sealing the coal sample and gas in the core inner cylinder. After core sampling, connect the downhole desorption instrument to perform on-site desorption. However, it still has the following deficiencies:

[0003] (1) The core inner cylinder is sealed with a plugging ball before sampling, and the sealing effect of the plugging ball is poor, and gas and water in the borehole are likely to enter the sampling inner cylinder.

[0004] (2) The starting water pressure of sampling cannot be adjusted, which easily causes mis-triggering of the opening and closing of the ball valve, and coal slag and water enter the sampling device, affecting the accuracy of experimental results. Summary of the Invention

[0005] In view of this, the purpose of the present invention is to solve the above problems and propose a deep-hole fixed-point airtight sampling device and method for coal mines.

[0006] To achieve the above purpose, the present invention provides the following technical solutions:

[0007] A deep-hole fixed-point airtight sampling device for coal mines includes a connection part connected to a drill pipe, a sampling part threadedly connected to the connection part, and a drill bit threadedly connected to the end of the sampling part. The sampling part includes a core outer cylinder, a one-way valve, a telescopic locking mechanism, and a core middle cylinder sequentially sleeved inside the core outer cylinder, and a core inner cylinder sleeved inside the core middle cylinder; the core inner cylinder is fixedly connected to the core outer cylinder; the core inner cylinder is connected to the drill bit through a sampling valve, the sampling valve is provided with a valve switch, and the core middle cylinder is connected to the valve switch;

[0008] The telescopic locking mechanism is driven by high-pressure water in the drill pipe to push the core middle cylinder to move axially inside the core outer cylinder, thereby driving the valve switch to open and close the sampling valve.

[0009] Further, the telescopic locking mechanism includes a locking member, a pressure rod, a limiting ring, and a return spring; the return spring is arranged inside the core barrel and abuts against the end face of the core middle barrel to push the core middle barrel to reset;

[0010] The limiting ring is fixedly arranged inside the core barrel; the pressure rod is slidably arranged inside the limiting ring, one end of the pressure rod is in contact with the high-pressure water inside the drill pipe, and the other end is provided with saw teeth; a sliding groove is arranged on the side wall of the limiting ring, and a stop groove is arranged on the end face of the limiting ring; the sliding groove and the stop groove are alternately distributed at one end of the limiting ring; the locking member is arranged between the limiting ring and the core middle barrel; one end of the locking member is provided with a slider, and a first inclined surface is arranged on the end face of the slider; a second inclined surface is arranged at the entrance of the stop groove, and a third inclined surface is arranged at the entrance of the sliding groove;

[0011] The initial position of the slider is located in the sliding groove and is in sliding fit with the sliding groove; when the pressure rod pushes the locking member, the tooth top of the saw teeth abuts against the first inclined surface. When the slider is in the sliding groove, the pressure rod pushes the locking member to slide in the sliding groove, so that the locking member generates an axial displacement, and the locking member drives the core middle barrel to move, driving the sampling valve to open and close; when the slider slides out of the sliding groove, the first inclined surface pushes the locking member to generate a circumferential rotation, so that the first inclined surface cooperates with the second inclined surface, and the slider slides into the stop groove to lock the position of the core middle barrel, and the sampling valve remains in the open state; when the pressure rod pushes the locking member again, the locking member rotates so that the first inclined surface cooperates with the third inclined surface, the slider resets to the sliding groove, and at the same time under the action of the return spring, the core middle barrel drives the sampling valve to close.

[0012] Further, the inclination directions and angles of the first inclined surface, the second inclined surface, and the third inclined surface are the same.

[0013] Further, the number of teeth of the saw teeth is the sum of the numbers of the sliding groove and the stop groove.

[0014] Further, a water pressure regulating disc is arranged between the one-way valve and the telescopic locking mechanism; a plurality of water permeable holes are arranged on the water pressure regulating disc, and detachable screws are arranged in the water permeable holes, and the water pressure acting on the telescopic locking mechanism is changed by adjusting the number of screws.

[0015] Further, a toothed disc is arranged on the edge of the valve switch; a toothed groove is arranged at the position of the core middle barrel corresponding to the valve switch, and the toothed groove is meshed with the toothed disc.

[0016] Further, an inner barrel base is arranged at one end of the core inner barrel far away from the drill bit, and an analysis interface is arranged on the inner barrel base.

[0017] A method for taking sealed samples at fixed points in deep coal mine holes uses the above-mentioned device for taking sealed samples at fixed points in deep coal mine holes, and includes the following steps:

[0018] 1) Conduct sampling hole drilling construction. After the sampling drilling is completed, withdraw the drill pipe, connect the coal mine deep-hole fixed-point airtight sampling device to the drill pipe. At this time, the sampling valve is in the closed state, and send the coal mine deep-hole fixed-point airtight sampling device to the sampling point through the drill pipe;

[0019] 2) After the coal mine deep-hole fixed-point airtight sampling device is sent to the sampling point, increase the water pressure to the set driving water pressure. At this time, the high water pressure drives the telescopic locking mechanism to act, the core-taking middle cylinder extends forward, the sampling valve opens, and sampling is carried out after the water pressure is reduced;

[0020] 3) After sampling is completed, increase the water pressure again, drive the telescopic locking mechanism to act again, close the water injection, the core-taking middle cylinder resets, and the sampling valve closes to complete the sampling.

[0021] The beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows:

[0022] 1. The telescopic locking mechanism adopted in the present invention is similar to the principle of the telescopic locking mechanism of a ballpoint pen. The high-pressure water is used to drive the telescopic locking mechanism to open and close the sampling valve. The sampling process realizes the maintenance of the open state of the sampling valve through the stop groove. Only the high-pressure water needs to be started when the sampling valve is opened and closed, and the high-pressure state does not need to be maintained during the sampling process, avoiding the high-pressure water from entering the coal sample and affecting the measurement of the coal sample.

[0023] 2. The present invention controls the starting water pressure of the telescopic locking mechanism through the water pressure regulating disc, which can effectively control the starting water pressure, avoid the disadvantages of using high-pressure water cutting in the prior art, and the device will not cause damage during use and can be reused.
