When it is needed to control well pressure, the opening degree of throttling valve is changed by rotating valve core, so as to adjust well pressure.

The connecting piece 12 comprises a connecting rod, one end of the connecting rod is connected to the piston rod of the lifting cylinder 10, and the other end of the connecting rod is connected to the machine housing 13. The length of the piston rod of the lifting cylinder 10 can be extended through the connecting piece 12, which facilitates the connection of the piston rod of the lifting cylinder 10 to the machine housing 13 to control the movement stroke of the machine housing 13.
[0074] In another embodiment, a gas cylinder or a driving slider can be used instead of the lifting cylinder 10, which is not limited here.

[0080] During the operation of the scraper 17, there is a gap between the outer wall of the scraper 17 and the inner wall of the inner hole flow channel 7, and mud cake is easily left in the gap.
[0081] In order to thoroughly remove the mud cake, in the embodiment of the present application, as shown in the embodiment of Figure 4 and Figure 9 the application, the mud scraping structure further comprises a pushing cylinder 20 telescopically arranged in the casing 13, the pushing cylinder 20 is sleeved on the outer side of the scraper 17, and in the cleaning state, the pushing cylinder 20 can enter the inner hole flow channel 7 through the opening 14.

[0099] Specifically, the two groups of dredging mechanisms 9 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the valve core structure 600. When the mud removal operation is performed, the two groups of dredging mechanisms 9 can work alternately to remove the mud cake in the inner hole flow channel 7. Of course, the two groups of dredging mechanisms 9 can also work independently to remove the mud cake in the inner hole flow channel 7, which is not limited here.
[0100] By arranging the two groups of dredging mechanisms 9, the two groups of dredging mechanisms 9 can perform the mud removal operation from both sides of the inner hole flow channel 7, which significantly improves the cleaning effect of the mud cake.
