[0100] The upper end surface of the central rod 32 is provided with a buffer groove 325, and the central rod 32 is provided with a downward opening blind hole 321. The outer cylindrical surface of the central rod 32 is provided with a plurality of long track grooves 322 and a plurality of short track grooves 323 which are arranged in an axial direction and are spaced apart.

[0102] Referring to Figures 12 to 14 , the centralizer 4 includes a centralizer body 41, a pressing plate 42, a plurality of positioning bodies 43 and a plurality of elastic members. The centralizer body 41 is composed of a guide head 414, a centralizing body 413, an intermediate body 412 and a fourth upper joint 411 from bottom to top as a whole. The pressing plate 42 is fixed on the centralizer body 41 by bolts 46; the positioning body 43 is embedded in the pressing plate 42 and can float in the radial direction.
[0103] The elastic member is installed inside the positioning body 43 to support the positioning body 43, so as to ensure that the positioning body 43 is always in the maximum allowable size. When the combined tool string moves in the casing, due to the gap at the casing connection, when the positioning body 43 passes through the gap, the sharp part outside the positioning body 43 will extend into the casing gap, causing the change of the pipe string lifting force (friction force), so that the tool depth into the well can be determined by the surface depth measuring device.
[0104] Referring to Figure 13 and Figure 14 , the guide head 414 is a hemisphere. The centralizing body 413 is provided with at least three centralizing protrusions 4131 which are uniformly distributed in the circumferential direction, and the surface of the centralizing protrusion 4131 is a circular arc surface. The intermediate body 412 is a cylindrical body, and the cylindrical surface of the cylindrical body is provided with at least three connection grooves 4121 which are uniformly distributed in the circumferential direction.
[0105] Referring to Figures 13 to 14In the embodiment, the number of the connecting grooves 4121, the positioning bodies 43 and the elastic members is three, and the number of the righting protrusions 4131 is six. The three positioning bodies 43 are connected in the corresponding connecting grooves 4121 respectively, and each of the positioning bodies 43 is provided with a positioning protrusion 433. The surface of the positioning protrusion 433 is a plane or a circular arc surface, and the length of the positioning protrusion 433 is less than the width of the gap between the adjacent casings. The positioning protrusion 433 is made of hard alloy material. The two sides of the positioning protrusion 433 are provided with a first guide segment 435 and a first guide segment 436, and the first guide segment 435 is close to the righting body 413. It can be understood that the number of the connecting grooves 4121, the positioning bodies 43 and the elastic members can be four or set according to actual needs.
[0106] The elastic member is arranged between the groove bottom of the connecting groove 4121 and the positioning body 43. The elastic member can provide a force along the radial direction of the cylinder away from the cylinder for the positioning body 43, so as to support the positioning body 43 and make the positioning body 43 float along the radial direction. Specifically, the elastic member is a leaf spring 44, and the positioning body 43 is provided with a limiting groove 431. The length of the limiting groove 431 is matched with the length of the compressed leaf spring 44. In the embodiment, two compression springs 45 are further arranged in the connecting groove 4121. The positioning body 43 is provided with an upper limiting recess 432. The bottom surface of the first positioning groove is provided with a lower limiting recess 4122 corresponding to the position of the upper limiting recess 432. The first end of the compression spring 45 is located in the upper limiting recess 432, and the second end of the compression spring 45 is located in the lower limiting recess 4122.
[0107] The positioning body 43 is provided with two installation edges 434. The two installation edges 434 are located on the two sides of the length direction of the positioning body 43 respectively, and the surface of the installation edge 434 is lower than the surface of the positioning body 43. The two ends of the connecting groove 4121 are provided with a pressing plate 42. The pressing plate 42 includes two limiting parts and two connecting parts. The connecting part is located outside the limiting part, and the connecting part is connected to the righting body 41 through a bolt 46. The limiting part corresponds to the two installation edges 434 of the positioning body 43, and limits the positioning body 43. When the surface of the pressing plate 42 is flush with the surface of the positioning body 43 at the preset position, the pressing plate 42 can prevent the positioning body 43 from continuing to move away from the righting body 41 after reaching the preset position.
[0108] The working principle of the old well drag fracturing clamping and distance adjustable combined tool in the embodiment is as follows:
[0109] The tool string enters the well, and the righting guide body assembly 38 of the track-type bottom packer 3 contains a friction body 383. When the combined tool string enters the well, the telescopic piston pipe 29 is compressed and retracted into the cylinder outer pipe 210, which reduces the length of the entire tool string and facilitates the entry into the well. According to the righting positioner 4, the combined tool string is determined to be placed at the designated position, and the length of the perforation section is determined in combination with the formation data, so as to accurately ensure that the lower sealing and clamping point of the combined tool string is located at the lower part of the perforation section, and the upper sealing point of the telescopic piston pipe 29 after extension is located at the upper part of the perforation section, so as to ensure that the upper and lower sealing points completely cover the perforation section.
[0110] The righting body 41 in the righting positioner 4 is used for righting of the combined tool string. After the positioning body 43 contacts the gap at the casing connection, the pipe string friction changes. According to the number of friction changes, the placement depth of the combined tool string can be calculated. When it is determined that the combined tool string is placed at the designated position, the combined tool string is first lifted. Due to the action of the friction body 383, the guide pin 386 slides along the short track groove 323 to the reversing guide rail groove 324, and then the combined tool string is lowered. The guide pin 386 is switched to the long track groove 322 through the reversing guide rail groove 324 and slides. Since the track length of the long track groove 322 is greater than that of the short track groove 323, the annular protrusion 326 will exert a downward pushing force on the cone 36. The cone 36 pushes the second slip seat 371 to make the second slip tooth 372 clamped with the casing, thereby completing the clamping of the lower part of the perforation section. The main sealing rubber sleeve 33 is deformed under the extrusion action to achieve the sealing of the lower part of the perforation section.
[0111] Then, the pipe string is lifted to ensure that the telescopic piston pipe extends to the required length. The surface fracturing equipment supplies fracturing fluid into the pipe string. When the fracturing fluid passes through the throttling hole of the hydraulic internal pressure booster packer 2 with telescopic joints, a throttling pressure difference is formed. The fracturing fluid at the upper part of the throttling hole enters the piston cavity along the second hydraulic channel 212, pushes the piston to move upward, and compresses the first sealing rubber sleeve 22 to seal the annulus between the outer cylinder 24 and the casing. At this point, a double-sealing single-clamping fracturing sealing section is formed. The tension of the telescopic piston pipe 29 when it is extended is less than the friction force formed by the friction body 383 of the bottom packer. Otherwise, lifting the telescopic piston pipe 29 will cause the bottom packer to be unsealed. The lower periphery of the telescopic piston pipe 29 cylinder outer pipe has a pressure relief slit 2101, which allows the liquid to flow out between the telescopic piston pipe 29 and the cylinder outer pipe 210 when the second piston 28 is extended.
[0112] Finally, the high-pressure liquid in the casing enters the hydraulic drive assembly 12, pushes the two cone sleeves 125 to move axially towards each other, and radially spreads the first slip tooth 143 to be clamped on the inner wall of the casing. At this point, a double-sealing double-clamping perforation section sealing of the entire combined tool string is formed.
