AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

In existing technologies, direct-reading flow meters cannot effectively unblock when they encounter obstructions in the well, leading to overload or breakage of the test cable, which affects the water injection development effect and testing efficiency.

Method used

Design a oscillating unlocking device for a direct-reading flowmeter cable head. The device uses an oscillating telescopic rod connected to a connector on the cable head to achieve upward and downward oscillation. Combined with an elastic limiting pin and a spring spiral wire, the device achieves oscillating unlocking.

Benefits of technology

It effectively removes blockages in the well of the direct-reading flow meter, prevents cable breakage, improves testing efficiency, and extends cable life.

Abstract

This invention relates to a vibration-disconnect device for a direct-reading flowmeter cable head. It primarily addresses the problem that existing direct-reading flowmeters, when jammed during stratified water injection testing, cannot be disconnected, easily leading to the flowmeter falling into the well. The bottom of the cable connector (1) is threadedly connected to a vibration telescopic rod (9). The lower end of the vibration telescopic rod (9) has a protruding telescopic rod protrusion (10), located inside the telescopic rod movable cylinder (14). The lower end of the telescopic rod movable cylinder (14) is connected to the flowmeter lower connector (18). The inner wall of the telescopic rod movable cylinder (14) has a circumferential limiting groove (16), and the outer wall of the telescopic rod protrusion (10) has a radially retractable conical limiting pin (11). This vibration-disconnect device for a direct-reading flowmeter cable head can vibrate upwards and downwards when the flowmeter is jammed, achieving vibration-disconnection of the flowmeter and preventing it from falling into the well.
