The cylinder of the hydraulic cylinder is provided with two cylinder barrels, namely an outer cylinder barrel 5 and an inner cylinder barrel 6. The length of the inner cylinder barrel is less than that of the outer cylinder barrel. One end of the outer cylinder barrel 5 is connected to the cylinder bottom 14 by thread, and the other end is connected to the outside of the cylinder head 3 by thread.

The lower packing is installed in the groove of the cylinder head 3. The lower packing 221 directly contacts the petroleum and bears the lateral force of the piston rod. Therefore, it should be mainly made of a polytetrafluoroethylene and aramid composite material with high temperature resistance, high pressure resistance, and good lubrication, mainly providing good self-lubrication, excellent wear resistance, and sealing performance. The sealing ring 223 should be a polyurethane or fluororubber sealing ring resistant to petroleum corrosion; the guide sleeve 224 should be made of PEEK material with wear resistance, corrosion resistance, high temperature resistance, and self-lubrication. The hydraulic oil sealing between the piston and the cylinder barrel: Ensure that the internal leakage of the oil cylinder meets the requirements of relevant standards.
[0008] A filter silencer 17 is installed inside the cover 16, and the silencer is installed on the opposite side of the displacement sensor.

[0012] The material of the upper packing gland (91) is polytetrafluoroethylene. The sealing ring (19) is a polyurethane sealing ring. The rubber ring (93) is a nitrile rubber ring. The guide (94) is a phenolic fabric guide. The sealing ring III (95) is a polyurethane sealing ring.
[0013] The working principle of the present invention: The hydraulic oil with a certain pressure and flow rate provided by the oil pump enters the oil cylinder from the oil inlet and outlet (4), pushing the moving components composed of the oil cylinder piston (20), support cylinder (11), guide head (13), piston rod (1), and stop pipe (21) to move upward, driving the piston rod 1 to rise. The rising stroke collects signals through the displacement sensor (15). When the displacement reaches the set value, the oil pump stops supplying oil. Under the action of the gravity load, the hydraulic oil is discharged from the oil cylinder through the oil inlet and outlet (4).
[0014] The beneficial technical effects of the present invention:
[0015] The oil cylinder consists of two inner and outer cylinder barrels. The piston moves between the inner and outer cylinder barrels, and the piston rod moves inside the inner cylinder barrel. The hydraulic oil seal of the piston rod is cancelled in the structure, fundamentally solving the external leakage at the piston rod of the oil cylinder.
[0016] The seal leakage of the piston is internal leakage, which can be discharged back to the fuel tank through the oil drain hole and oil outlet for reuse, without causing the external leakage of hydraulic oil, and solving problems such as environmental pollution.
[0017] There is a sealing ring between the inner cylinder barrel and the support cylinder for sealing. A small amount of internally leaked hydraulic oil is directly discharged back to the fuel tank without directly contacting the piston rod, eliminating the risk of the hydraulic oil being contaminated by the piston rod.
[0018] The piston rod is sealed at the upper and lower ends of the inner cylinder barrel, which can ensure that petroleum and other pollutants enter the oil cylinder. After long-term use, a small amount of petroleum entering due to seal wear is sealed in the support cylinder and cannot contact the internally leaked hydraulic oil of the piston, without polluting the hydraulic oil.
[0019] Since there is no rod end seal in the structure of the oil cylinder, the damage to the rod end seal caused by the lateral force on the piston rod is fundamentally solved.
[0020] Multiple petroleum seals are arranged by using the fixed space between the inner diameter of the inner cylinder barrel and the piston rod to ensure good petroleum sealing. Even if a certain amount of petroleum enters this fixed space, it will gradually solidify, hindering the further intrusion of subsequent petroleum. Description of the Drawings

[0027] Please refer to Figures 1-5 As shown, a technical solution provided by the present invention:
[0028] A hydraulic pumping unit cylinder without external leakage, comprising a piston rod 1, a flange 2, a cylinder head 3, an oil inlet and outlet 4, an outer cylinder barrel 5, an inner cylinder barrel 6, an oil drain hole 7, an oil port 8, an upper seal 9, an upper seal gland 10, a support cylinder 11, an exhaust hole 12, a guide head 13, a cylinder bottom 14, a displacement sensor 15, a cover 16, an air filter and silencer 17, a wear-resistant seal sleeve 18 for the guide head, a sealing ring 19, a piston 20, a stop pipe 21, a lower seal assembly 22, and a lower seal gland 23. The cylinder has two cylinder barrels, namely the outer cylinder barrel 5 and the inner cylinder barrel 6. The length of the inner cylinder barrel is less than that of the outer cylinder barrel, slightly less than half of the outer cylinder barrel. One end of the outer cylinder barrel 5 is connected to the cylinder bottom 14 by a thread, and the other end is connected to the outside of the cylinder head 3 by a thread. One end of the inner cylinder barrel 6 is connected to the inside of the cylinder head 3 by a thread, and the other end of the inner cylinder barrel 6 is connected to the upper seal gland 10. The inner cylinder barrel 6 and the piston rod are sealed by the upper seal assembly 9. The outer part of the inner cylinder barrel 6 is sleeved with the piston 20. The piston 20 is arranged between the outer cylinder barrel 5 and the inner cylinder barrel 6 and is sealed with the inner and outer cylinder barrels through a sealing component. One side of the piston 20 is connected to the support cylinder 11 by a thread, and a stop pipe 21 is installed on the other side of the piston 20. The stop pipe 21 is sleeved on the inner cylinder barrel 6 and contacts the piston 20. One end of the support cylinder 11 is connected to the piston 20 by a thread, and the other end of the support cylinder 11 is connected to the guide head 13 by a thread. The guide head 13 is connected to the top end of the piston rod 1 by a thread. The cylinder head 3 is connected to the flange 2 by bolts. The flange 2 and the piston rod 1 are sealed by the lower seal assembly 22, and the lower seal gland 23 is installed outside the lower seal assembly 22. The cylinder bottom 14 is connected to the cover 16 by bolts. The displacement sensor 15 is installed in the cover 16. The displacement sensor 15 receives the position signal of the piston rod, and the other end of the displacement sensor is connected to an external electronic control system. The inner cylinder barrel 6 and the support cylinder 11 are sealed by the sealing ring 19. An oil inlet and outlet 4 is arranged at the end of the outer cylinder barrel 5 close to the cylinder head 3. An oil port 8 is arranged on the outer cylinder barrel 5. An oil drain hole 7 is arranged at the lower end of the support cylinder 11. The oil drain hole 7 is close to the piston 20. The guide head 13 is provided with an exhaust hole 12, and a wear-resistant seal sleeve 18 for the guide head is installed outside the guide head 13.
[0029] An air filter and silencer 17 is installed in the cover 16, and the silencer is installed on the opposite side of the displacement sensor.
[0030] The piston 20 moves between the outer cylinder barrel 5 and the inner cylinder barrel 6.
[0031] There is a gap between the inner cylinder barrel 6 and the support cylinder 11, and the size of the gap can be adjusted according to the dimensions.
[0032] The piston 20 does not fit tightly with the top end of the inner cylinder barrel 6, and there is a gap. The oil of the piston can flow through the gap to the oil drain hole 7 arranged on the support cylinder 11 and then flow to the system circuit through the oil drain hole 7 and the oil port 8.
[0033] A wear-resistant seal sleeve 18 for the guide head is sleeved outside the guide head 13, and the guide head 13 is provided with an exhaust hole 12.
[0034] The oil drain hole 7 is close to the piston 20, the oil drain hole 7 is higher than the piston 20 and lower than the top end of the inner cylinder barrel 6. It is necessary to ensure that the oil drain hole 7 is not blocked when the piston rod 1 is fully retracted.
[0035] Operation process of the present invention: The hydraulic oil cylinder flange 2 of the hydraulic pumping unit is directly seated on the wellhead to prevent oil leakage. It is fastened by bolts. The oil inlet and outlet 4 is connected to the power oil port of the pumping unit system, the oil port 8 is connected to the circuit of the pumping unit system, and the displacement sensor 15 is connected to the electric control system of the pumping unit to collect displacement signals. The oil pump provides hydraulic oil with a certain pressure and flow rate and enters the oil cylinder from the oil inlet and outlet 4. After the hydraulic oil enters, it pushes the stop tube 21 to move. The stop tube 21 moves upward and pushes the piston rod 1 to move. The piston rod is connected to the support tube 11, and the support tube 11 moves upward. The support cylinder 11 is connected to the guide head, and the guide head moves upward, driving the sucker rod to move upward. The ascending stroke collects signals through the displacement sensor 15. When the displacement reaches the set value, the oil pump stops supplying oil. Under the action of the gravity load, the piston rod 1 with the oil cylinder moves downward. The piston rod 1 moves downward, and the guide head on the piston rod 1 follows and moves downward. The guide head drives the support tube 11 to move. The support rod is connected to the piston 20, the piston is connected to the stop tube 21, and the stop tube 21 moves downward accordingly. The hydraulic oil is discharged from the oil cylinder through the oil inlet and outlet 4. The downward stroke collects signals through the displacement sensor 15. When the displacement reaches the set value, the oil pump starts to supply oil. A new movement begins. The stroke of the piston rod is slightly less than half of the length of the oil cylinder barrel. When internal leakage occurs in the piston 20, the oil flows through the oil drain hole 7 into the oil port 8 and then flows back to the system circuit, without external leakage. The seal leakage of the piston is internal leakage, which can be discharged back to the fuel tank through the oil drain hole and the oil drain port for reuse, without causing external leakage of the hydraulic oil and solving problems such as environmental pollution. The present invention can generate 0.1L - 0.15L less external leakage per day than conventional hydraulic pumping units, converting the original external leakage into internal leakage, ensuring compliance with relevant national standards, and greatly reducing energy waste during the operation of the hydraulic pumping unit. The present invention is provided with an oil seal including an upper seal 9 and a lower seal group 22 to prevent oil from contacting the hydraulic oil. Especially under the guiding action of the lower seal group 22, the upper seal 9 has almost no lateral force. Then, the sucker rod is sealed by a packing seal to prevent the hydraulic oil from being contaminated by oil, extending the service life of hydraulic components by up to 80%.
