Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of drilling technology, in particular to an inner and outer swing frame reciprocating linear transmission mechanism and a drilling-while-active cooling power device. Background Art

[0002] Oil and gas well boreholes are formed by rotating the drill string or using downhole power tools to drive the drill bit through the subsurface rock. To ensure safe and efficient drilling operations, continuous monitoring of near-bit engineering parameters such as weight on bit, torque, annular water pressure, and temperature, as well as geological parameters such as resistivity, porosity, and gamma-ray while drilling, is required. To obtain these while-drilling engineering and geological parameters, various parameter measurement circuits or sensors must be installed at the bottom of the drill string and near the drill bit.

[0003] With increasing energy demand, the exploration and development of deep and ultra-deep oil and gas resources has become a crucial area for increasing reserves and production. However, during drilling into deep and ultra-deep formations, high formation temperatures exceed the upper temperature limits of various components and sensors in measurement and control systems while drilling, causing them to malfunction or even fail. Generally speaking, high temperatures induce failure of various components and sensors in measurement and control systems while drilling in two modes: 1) When the components or sensors are operating, the thermal stress generated by their own temperature rise reduces their service life; 2) When the ambient temperature in deep and ultra-deep formations reaches a critical value, various components and sensors in the measurement and control system will be damaged. Failures caused by overheating not only increase the cost of replacing failed components and sensors, but also the lack of high-temperature-resistant electronic components makes it impossible to meet the needs of exploration and development of deeper oil and gas resources.

[0004] Currently, high-temperature resistance technology for downhole tools in oil and gas wells has been identified as a key core technology for achieving breakthroughs in the efficient exploration and profitable development of deep and ultra-deep oil and gas resources. Therefore, developing core module technologies for high-temperature-resistant measurement and control systems while drilling is crucial and urgently needed. Summary of the Invention

[0082] The outer swing frame 4 is also coaxially provided with a first journal 402 and a second journal 404 of the outer swing frame for matching with the two axial holes of the shell 8 at the corresponding position.

[0083] The cylinder body 13 and the housing 8 are fixedly mounted.

[0084] The piston 12 and the inner hole of the cylinder 13 form a cylindrical kinematic pair with a certain radial clearance.

[0085] The inner hole of the cylinder body 13, the piston 12 and the first shaft 1 are coaxially mounted.

[0086] The piston 12 is connected to the first shaft 1 via the second pin 11 , so that the piston 12 has a degree of rotational freedom around the axis of the second pin 11 relative to the first shaft 1 . This design can accommodate a certain degree of machining error and installation error.

[0088] like Figure 2As shown, it includes a first shaft 1, a first bearing 2, a rolling element 3, an outer swing frame 4, an inner swing frame 5, a second bearing 6, a housing 8, a first pin 10, a second pin 11, a piston 12, a cylinder 13, and a universal cross shaft 14.

[0089] The same parts as in Example 1 are not described in detail, except that:

[0090] The piston 12 is connected to the first shaft 1 via a universal cross 14 provided between the piston 12 and the first shaft 1 .

[0091] One end of the universal cross shaft 14 is connected to the piston 12 through the second pin shaft 11 and has the freedom of rotation around the axis of the second pin shaft 11. The other end of the universal cross shaft 14 is connected to the first shaft 1 through the first pin shaft 10 and has the freedom of rotation around the axis of the first pin shaft 10.

[0092] Example 3

[0095] A second shaft 15 is provided between the universal cross shaft 14 and the first shaft 1 , a third bearing 7 is provided between the second shaft 15 and the first shaft 1 , and a fourth bearing 9 is provided between the second shaft 15 and the housing 8 .

[0096] One end of the universal cross shaft 14 is connected to the second shaft 15 through the first pin shaft 10 and has the freedom of rotation around the axis of the first pin shaft 10. The other end of the universal cross shaft 14 is connected to the piston 12 through the second pin shaft 11 and has the freedom of rotation around the axis of the second pin shaft 11.

[0097] The elastic element 16 is provided between the second shaft 15 and the fourth bearing 9 .

[0098] Example 4

[0099] The same parts as those in Example 3 will not be repeated here. The difference is that the elastic element 16 is arranged between the second shaft 15 and the housing 8 .

[0100] At this point, under the strict radial size conditions of downhole drilling tools, the action of the internal and external swing frame reciprocating linear transmission mechanism enables the power unit with smaller radial dimensions to meet the structural requirements of the drilling tools, provide stable and periodic pressure waves for the refrigeration device, and drive the active cooling device to work and generate cold energy, which is used to balance the heat transferred to the while-drilling measurement and control system from the high-temperature environment and the self-generated heat generated during the operation of the while-drilling measurement and control system, and reduce the operating temperature of the while-drilling measurement and control system to below the ambient temperature that the system can withstand, thereby forming a high-temperature resistant while-drilling measurement and control system, improving the level of safe and efficient drilling technology for deep and ultra-deep wells, and realizing efficient exploration and beneficial development of oil and gas resources.
