The structure is compact and occupies small space.
[0030] The present application directly provides the telescopic power source of the pushing assembly 3 by mud, avoids the problem of complex structure and high cost of setting independent hydraulic system; at the same time, the on-off valve assembly 4 can introduce the mud in the mud channel 21 into the specified pushing assembly 3, and the detection control assembly 5 can adjust the communication position of the on-off valve assembly 4 and the pushing assembly 3, that is, the present application can control the mud to flow into the lower part of the specified pushing assembly 3 by the combined setting of the on-off valve assembly 4 and the detection control assembly 5, which makes the pushing assembly 3 push the well wall at a given direction of the stratum, effectively realizes the deflection of the drill bit 1 along the fixed direction, and achieves the purpose of directional drilling, which is convenient to operate and has high safety and reliability.

[0032] As shown, Figure 4 The on-off valve assembly 4 comprises a rotating shaft 41, a rotating disc 42 and a fixed disc 43. The rotating disc 42 and the fixed disc 43 are sleeved on the rotating shaft 41, the rotating disc 42 rotates with the rotating shaft 41, and the fixed disc 43 rotates with the drill bit 1; at the same time, the rotating disc 42 is provided with a rotating disc mud passing hole 421, the fixed disc 43 is provided with multiple fixed disc mud passing holes 431, the number of the fixed disc mud passing holes 431 is the same as that of the pushing assembly 3, and the fixed disc mud passing holes 431 are in one-to-one correspondence with the pushing assembly 3.

[0033] During directional drilling, the rotating shaft 41 drives the rotating disc mud passing hole 421 to rotate to the communication position of the specified pushing assembly 3; when the drill bit 1 drives the fixed disc mud passing hole 431 to rotate to communicate with the rotating disc mud passing hole 421, the mud in the mud channel 21 enters the specified pushing assembly 3 through the rotating disc mud passing hole 421 and the fixed disc mud passing hole 431, which realizes the effective pushing of the specified pushing assembly 3 and achieves the purpose of directional drilling, which is convenient to operate and has high efficiency.
[0034] Further, the on-off valve assembly 4 further comprises a limiting disc 44 and a pressing ring 45. The rotating disc 42 is arranged between the fixing disc 43 and the limiting disc 44, and gaps are left between the two ends of the rotating disc 42 and the fixing disc 43 and the limiting disc 44. The rotating disc 42 is axially limited by the pressing ring 45 arranged on one side of the limiting disc 44, which can avoid the problem of mutual interference of the disc bodies when rotating while limiting the axial displacement of the rotating disc 42.

The limiting disc 44 is provided with a plurality of limiting disc slurry passing holes 441, and the number of the limiting disc slurry passing holes 441 is the same as that of the fixing disc slurry passing holes 431. Meanwhile, one end of the limiting disc slurry passing hole 441 is arranged in one-to-one correspondence with the fixing disc slurry passing hole 431, and the other end of the limiting disc slurry passing hole 441 communicates with the mud channel 21.

[0036] Further, a limiting component 7 is arranged between the rotating shaft 41 and the rotating disc 42. The limiting component 7 comprises a polygonal through hole 71 and a polygonal clamping part 72. The polygonal through hole 71 is arranged on the rotating disc 42, and the polygonal clamping part 72 is arranged on the rotating shaft 41. The polygonal through hole 71 and the polygonal clamping part 72 are clamped and matched with each other, so as to make the rotating disc 42 rotate with the rotating shaft 41.
[0037] As Figure 2 and Figure 5 described, the rotary steerable drilling mechanism further comprises a connecting seat 6. The connecting seat 6 is fixedly connected with the drill bit 1 and rotates with the drill bit 1. The connecting seat 6 comprises a disc body mounting part 61 and a mud flow part 62. The disc body mounting part 61 is provided with a cylindrical mounting groove, and the rotating disc 42, the fixing disc 43 and the limiting disc 44 are all mounted in the cylindrical mounting groove.

[0038] Meanwhile, the mud flow part 62 is provided with a plurality of shunt holes 621, and the drill bit 1 is provided with a plurality of axial slurry passing holes 11. The number of the shunt holes 621 and the number of the axial slurry passing holes 11 are both the same as the number of the pushing assembly 3. The two ends of the shunt hole 621 respectively communicate with the corresponding fixing disc slurry passing hole 431 and the axial slurry passing hole 11, and the other end of the axial slurry passing hole 11 extends to the bottom end of each pushing assembly 3. When the on-off valve assembly 4 is opened, the mud in the mud channel 21 enters the shunt hole 621 and the axial slurry passing hole 11 through the on-off valve assembly 4, so as to push out the pushing assembly 3.
[0039] In the embodiment, the three groups of push assembly 3 are uniformly distributed along the circumference of the drill bit 1. Meanwhile, the axial through-passage hole 11, the distribution hole 621, the through-passage hole 431 of the fixed disc, and the through-passage hole 441 of the limiting disc are all provided with three, and when the through-passage hole 421 of the rotating disc is communicated with one of the through-passage holes 431 of the fixed disc, the mud passage 21 and the push assembly 3 form a through-passage flow channel for the mud. In other embodiments, the number of the push assembly 3 can be adjusted according to actual conditions, such as four groups, five groups, etc., and at this time, the number of the axial through-passage hole 11, the distribution hole 621, the through-passage hole 431 of the fixed disc, and the limiting disc 44 are adjusted accordingly.
[0040] As shown in Figure 2 and Figure 3 The push assembly 3 includes a piston component. The piston component includes a piston sleeve 31, a piston 32, and a piston nozzle 33. The piston sleeve 31, the piston 32, and the piston nozzle 33 are sequentially arranged from the outside to the inside, the piston 32 can move along the axial direction of the piston sleeve 31, and the piston nozzle 33 is fixedly installed in the piston 32. The piston nozzle 33 is provided with a large-diameter inlet section 331, a tapered transition section 332, and a small-diameter outlet section 333, which are sequentially arranged from the center of the drill bit 1 to the outer periphery, and the large-diameter inlet section 331 is communicated with the corresponding axial through-passage hole 11. The arrangement of the mud injection hole of the piston nozzle 33 of the present application causes a pressure difference when the mud enters the push assembly 3, so that the piston 32 moves along the axial direction of the piston sleeve 31 under the action of the pressure difference, so as to push against the well wall and realize directional drilling function.
[0041] Meanwhile, an axial limiting portion 34 is arranged between the piston sleeve 31 and the piston 32 to prevent the piston 32 from being pulled out during movement. Further, the axial limiting portion 34 includes a piston limiting step 341 arranged on the piston 32 and a piston sleeve limiting step 342 arranged on the piston sleeve 31, and when the piston 32 moves along the axial direction of the piston sleeve 31 to a certain position, the piston limiting step 341 and the piston sleeve limiting step 342 are limited to prevent the piston 32 from being pulled out, thereby improving the safety and reliability of directional drilling.
[0042] In the embodiment, the piston component of each push assembly 3 is provided with two groups, and the two groups of piston components are arranged along the axial direction of the drill bit 1 to ensure sufficient pushing force and improve the effect of directional drilling. In other embodiments, the number of the piston component of each push assembly 3 can be adjusted according to actual conditions, such as three groups, four groups, etc.
[0043] In the embodiment, the piston nozzle 33 is an erosion-resistant nozzle, which effectively reduces the erosion of the piston 32 by mud. The piston nozzle 33 can be replaced to realize the replacement and maintenance of the piston component, which improves the service life of the piston component and reduces the maintenance cost. Meanwhile, the piston nozzle 33 is screwed in the piston 32, which facilitates the replacement.
[0044] Further, the pushing assembly 3 further comprises a piston cover plate 35. The piston cover plate 35 is fixedly installed on the drill bit 1 by fasteners, and the piston cover plate 35 presses the piston sleeve 31 to prevent the piston sleeve 31 from falling off.

[0045] As shown in Figure 2 The detection and control assembly 5 comprises a posture sensor unit 51, a control circuit 52, a driving motor 53 and a data uploading unit 54. The control circuit 52 receives the formation detection value of the posture sensor unit 51 and transmits it to the ground through the data uploading unit 54. Then, the control circuit 52 compares the formation detection value with the design value to calculate an adjustment value and sends a ground instruction according to the adjustment value. The control circuit 52 controls the driving motor 53 to rotate according to the ground instruction transmitted from the ground. The driving motor 53 is drivingly connected with the rotating shaft 41 of the on-off valve assembly 4 to control the rotating shaft 41 to rotate to the rotating disc mud hole 421 corresponding to the specified pushing assembly 3, which realizes the precise adjustment of the drilling steering function.
[0046] Further, the detection and control assembly 5 further comprises a generator 55, which comprises a rotor 551 and a stator 552. The mud circulation drives the rotor 551 to rotate, and at this time, the generator 55 generates electricity, which, after rectification, can provide power for the control circuit 52, the posture sensor unit 51, the data uploading unit 54 and the driving motor 53. Meanwhile, the ground instruction controls the speed of the generator 55 through the mud flow. The control circuit 52 has a detection component for detecting the speed of the generator 55. The control circuit 52 decodes the ground instruction by detecting the change of the speed of the generator 55 and controls the steering and speed of the driving motor 53 according to the decoding, so as to realize the rapid and precise adjustment of the pushing direction.
[0047] In the embodiment, the attitude sensor unit 51 comprises an accelerometer, a magnetic position meter, a rotational speed gyroscope, a temperature sensor and a sensor acquisition circuit. The accelerometer detects the inclination and tool face of the drilling mechanism; the magnetic position meter detects the azimuth of the drilling mechanism; the rotational speed gyroscope detects the rotational speed of the drilling mechanism; the temperature sensor detects the temperature of the rotational speed gyroscope, so as to increase or decrease the corresponding temperature drift rotational speed difference according to the test temperature, to compensate for the rotational speed error of the rotational speed gyroscope caused by temperature, and to ensure the accuracy of the detection result. At the same time, the sensor acquisition circuit collects each detection data and sends it to the control circuit 52, the control circuit 52 sends each detection data received to the data uploading unit 54, and the data uploading unit 54 transmits it to the pulser above the drill collar 2 in a wireless manner, and then transmits it to the ground through the pulser. The setting of each sensor detector of the attitude sensor unit 51 ensures the detection accuracy of each formation detection value, and improves the accurate control of the subsequent directional drilling function.
[0048] As shown in Figure 1 and Figure 2 , the detection control assembly 5 further comprises a mounting skeleton 55 and two support seats 56. The two support seats 56 are respectively arranged at the two ends of the mounting skeleton 55, and the mounting skeleton 55 is fixedly installed on the middle part of the drill collar 2 through the support seats 56, so as to rotate synchronously with the drill collar 2; at the same time, the support seat 56 is provided with a support seat slurry passing hole 561 for effective passing of the mud. The attitude sensor unit 51, the control circuit 52, the driving motor 53 and the data uploading unit 54 are all arranged in the mounting skeleton 55, the rotor 551 of the generator 55 is sleeved outside the mounting skeleton 55, and the stator 552 of the generator 55 is arranged in the mounting skeleton 55, so that the layout is compact and the occupied space is small.
[0049] In directional drilling, the control circuit 52 controls the driving motor 53 to rotate according to the ground instruction, at this time, the rotating disc through-hole 421 of the rotating disc 42 rotates to a given orientation relative to the stratum to correspond to the designated push assembly 3, then the control circuit 52 controls the driving motor 53 to fix the rotating disc through-hole 421 at the given orientation. At this time, the fixed disc 43, the limiting disc 44 and the connecting seat 6 rotate with the drill bit 1 relative to the stratum, when one of the fixed disc through-holes 431 on the fixed disc 43 rotates to the position of the rotating disc through-hole 421, a limiting disc through-hole 441, the rotating disc through-hole 421, the fixed disc through-hole 431 and one of the shunt holes 621 are communicated, the mud in the mud channel 21 passes through the above-mentioned holes and enters the bottom end of a group of push assemblies 3; the mud flows out of the piston nozzle 33, because the inlet diameter of the piston nozzle 33 is larger than the outlet diameter, and the mud pressure in the piston nozzle 33 is higher than the annular pressure outside the drill bit 1, therefore, the high liquid pressure pushes the piston 32 out. When the fixed disc 43 continues to rotate, the fixed disc through-hole 431 is disengaged from the rotating disc through-hole 421, and the corresponding push assembly 3 no longer has mud flowing in, the liquid pressure in the piston 32 is equal to the annular pressure outside the drill bit 1, at this time, the piston 32 is retracted under the action of the external force. When the other fixed disc through-hole 431 of the fixed disc 43 is communicated with the rotating disc through-hole 421, the corresponding piston 32 is pushed out; then, with the continuous rotation of the fixed disc 43, the corresponding piston 32 is retracted.
[0050] If the ground instruction is not received, the rotating disc 42 remains stationary relative to the stratum, and the drill bit 1 rotates relative to the stratum to drive the fixed disc 43 and the limiting disc 44 to rotate, at this time, the piston 32 of the same push assembly 3 is repeatedly pushed out to realize directional drilling in a certain direction. When the ground instruction is received, the rotating disc through-hole 421 of the rotating disc 42 rotates to a given orientation relative to the stratum to correspond to the designated push assembly 3, and realizes drilling direction change, so that the drill bit 1 accurately and quickly reaches the target stratum.
