DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0034] In order to make the above-mentioned objects, features and advantages of the present invention more obvious and easy to understand, the specific implementation methods of the present invention are described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0035] In the following description, many specific details are set forth to facilitate a full understanding of the present invention, but the present invention may also be implemented in other ways different from those described herein, and those skilled in the art may make similar generalizations without violating the connotation of the present invention. Therefore, the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.

[0036] Secondly, the term "one embodiment" or "embodiment" as used herein refers to a specific feature, structure, or characteristic that may be included in at least one implementation of the present invention. The term "in one embodiment" that appears in different places in this specification does not necessarily refer to the same embodiment, nor does it refer to a separate or selective embodiment that is mutually exclusive with other embodiments.

[0037] Secondly, the present invention is described in detail with reference to the schematic diagram. When describing the embodiments of the present invention in detail, for the sake of convenience, the cross-sectional diagrams showing the device structure will not be partially enlarged according to the general scale, and the schematic diagrams are only examples, which should not limit the scope of protection of the present invention. In addition, in actual production, the three-dimensional dimensions of length, width and depth should be included.

[0038] Example 1, reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 , which is the first embodiment of the present invention, provides a fracturing oil and gas production tree and a particle capture and separation device for a fracturing process, the device comprising an installation unit 100 and a capture unit 200.

[0039] The installation unit 100 includes a capture box 101, and an inlet side 102 and an outlet side 103 arranged at two ends of the capture box 101. The inlet side 102 is installed with an oil inlet pipe, and the outlet side 103 is installed with an oil outlet pipe.

[0040] Furthermore, the cross-sectional area of ​​the inlet side 102 is greater than the cross-sectional area of ​​the outlet side 103 , and the cross-sectional area of ​​the inlet side 102 and the cross-sectional area of ​​the outlet side 103 are square.

[0041] Furthermore, two support columns 101d and two support columns 101e are respectively installed at the two ends of the bottom of the capture box 101. The length of the support column 101d is greater than the length of the support column 101e, so that the cross-sectional center lines of the inlet side 102 and the outlet side 103 are collinear and horizontal, ensuring that the bottom surface of the capture box 101 is tilted toward the inlet side 102, and the bottom surface of the capture box 101 on the inlet side 102 is the lowest side.

[0042] Among them, the capture unit 200 includes a sliding rod 201 arranged at the four corners inside the capture box 101, an installation component 202 slidably arranged on the sliding rod 201, a capture component 203 arranged in the installation component 202, and a driving component 204 arranged in the capture box 101 and connected to the installation component 202, wherein the four sliding rods 201 are in an expanded shape, and the cross-sections of the four sliding rods 201 and the cross-section of the capture box 101 are both square, and the cross-sectional area gradually increases from the outlet side 103 to the inlet side 102.

[0043] Furthermore, the mounting assembly 202 includes sliders 202a that are respectively slidably connected to the four slide bars 201, elastic ropes 202b arranged between two adjacent sliders 202a, the four sliders 202a and the four elastic ropes 202b form a frame, the capture assembly 203 is installed in the frame, wherein the capture assembly 203 can be made of a net woven with elastic material, the driving assembly 204 is made of four cylinders, the four cylinders are installed at the four corners of the capture box 101 and are respectively horizontal to the four slide bars 201, the four sliders 202a can be controlled to slide along the slide bar 201 by the four cylinders working simultaneously, the slider 202a is away from the inlet side 102 in the initial state, and the slider 202a can be controlled to move toward the inlet side 102 when the cylinder is working.

[0044] During use, the oil enters through the inlet side 102. When the oil passes through the capture component 203, the capture component 203 intercepts the solid particles in the oil and separates them from the oil. The capture component 203 is likely to jam the solid particles when intercepting, thereby affecting the permeability of the oil. At this time, the driving component 204 controls the sliding of multiple sliders 202a. When the sliders 202a slide along the slide bar 201, the cross-sectional area between the four sliders 202a will increase, thereby pulling the capture component 203, enlarging the mesh opening in the capture component 203, and effectively causing more jammed solid particles to fall off.

[0045] At the same time, when the slider 202a drives the capture component 203 to move, it can push the intercepted solid particles to move and push the solid particles toward the inlet side 102. Since the capture box 101 is overall in a step-like shape, the space on the inlet side 102 is large enough to store solid particles.

[0046] Example 2, reference Figure 2-Figure 5 , which is the second embodiment of the present invention. This embodiment is different from the first embodiment in that: the capture component 203 includes a plurality of cross blocks 203a, a connecting portion 1 203b and a connecting portion 203c;

[0047] A connecting portion 1 203b is connected between two adjacent cross blocks 203a;

[0048] A second connection portion 203c is connected between the cross block 203a and the elastic rope 202b.

[0049] Furthermore, the connecting portion 203b includes a connecting tube 203b-1, a spring 203b-2 arranged in the connecting tube, and a connecting tube 203b-3 arranged at the end of the spring 203b-2; wherein the connecting tube 203b-3 and the connecting tube 203b-1 are plugged into each other, and can provide all-round shielding for the spring 203b-2, thereby preventing the intercepted solid particles from impacting and damaging the spring 203b-2.

[0050] The connecting pipe 1 203b-1 and the connecting pipe 2 203b-3 are respectively connected to two adjacent cross blocks 203a. The connecting pipe 1 203b-1 and the connecting pipe 2 203b-3 are fixedly connected to the cross block 203a, which can be achieved by welding, bonding, threaded connection, etc.

[0051] Furthermore, the second connecting part 203c includes a connecting tube 3 203c-1 arranged at the end of the cross block 203a, a spring 203c-2 arranged in the connecting tube 3 203c-1, a connecting tube 4 203c-3 arranged at the end of the spring 203c-2, and a slip ring 203c-4 arranged at the end of the connecting tube 4 203c-3; wherein the connecting tube 3 203c-1 and the connecting tube 4 203c-3 are plugged into each other, which can fully shield the spring 203c-2, thereby preventing the intercepted solid particles from impacting and damaging the spring 203c-2.

[0052] The slip ring 203c-4 is slidably sleeved in the elastic rope 202b. When the driving component 204 is working, it will control the four sliders 202a to slide along the slide rod 201 toward the inlet side 102, stretching the elastic rope 202b. At the same time, multiple connecting parts 1 203b and connecting parts 2 203c are also pulled, so that the area between every four adjacent cross blocks 203a at the head and tail increases, and the area of ​​the square enclosed by the cross block 203a and the elastic rope 202b increases.

[0053] Among them, the area between every four cross blocks 203a adjacent to each other end to end and the square area surrounded by the cross block 203a and the elastic rope 202b are used to intercept solid particles. When intercepting, the solid particles are easy to get stuck and block the passage of oil. At this time, the driving component 204 works to control the four sliders 202a to slide along the slide rod 201 toward the inlet side 102, and the area between every four cross blocks 203a adjacent to each other end to end and the square area surrounded by the cross block 203a and the elastic rope 202b are increased simultaneously toward the surrounding areas, so that the stuck solid particles can be loosened and fall on the bottom surface of the capture box 101.

[0054] The solid particles will be further pushed into the inlet side 102 by the moving capture assembly 203 and accumulated.

[0055] Furthermore, a sewage outlet 101b is provided at the bottom of the inlet side 102, and a sealing plate 101c connected to the outer wall of the capture box 101 is provided outside the sewage outlet 101b. When cleaning solid particles, the accumulated solid particles on the inlet side 102 can be removed from the sewage outlet 101b by simply opening the sealing plate 101c.

[0056] The remaining structures are the same as those of Example 1.

[0057] Example 3, reference Figure 6 and Figure 7, which is the third embodiment of the present invention. This embodiment is different from the second embodiment in that: the driving component 204 includes limit rings 204a respectively arranged on the four sliding bars 201, an electric telescopic rod 204b arranged on the inlet side 102 and connected to the inner wall of the capture box 101, a mounting portion 204c arranged at the end of the electric telescopic rod 204b, and connecting ropes 204d respectively arranged on the four sliding blocks 202a; the four connecting ropes 204d respectively slide through the four limit rings 204a and are connected to the mounting portion 204c; the mounting portion 204c is located between the limit ring 204a and the sliding block 202a.

[0058] When the electric telescopic rod 204b is extended, it can drive the mounting portion 204c to extend and move toward the capture component 203. When the mounting portion 204c moves, it will pull the four connecting ropes 204d, thereby pulling the four sliders 202a to move toward the mounting portion 204c, that is, driving the capture device to move toward the inlet side 102 to remove the stuck solid particles.

[0059] When the electric telescopic rod 204b is retracted, the connecting rope 204d will relax first. At this time, the sliders 202a will move closer to each other under the contraction elastic force of the elastic rope 202b. At the same time, with the impact of the oil, the capture component 203 will move toward the outlet side 103, thereby returning to the initial state and performing the interception and capture operation.

[0060] Furthermore, the inlet side 102 is equipped with a liquid inlet pipe 101a; the mounting portion 204c includes a mounting tube 204c-1 slidably inserted in the liquid inlet pipe 101a, and an expansion cover 204c-2 arranged at the end of the mounting tube 204c-1; four connecting ropes 204d are respectively connected to the four corners of the expansion cover 204c-2.

[0061] Among them, the liquid inlet pipe 101a penetrates into the interior of the capture box 101, and is sealed between the liquid inlet pipe 101a and the mounting pipe 204c-1. The outlet end area of ​​the expansion cover 204c-2 is larger than the cross-sectional area of ​​the liquid inlet pipe 101a. When the oil is discharged from the outlet section of the expansion cover 204c-2, the internal pressure of the oil will decrease, and the force impacting the capture component 203 will decrease, reducing the probability of solid particles being stuck, and at the same time increasing the contact area between the oil and the capture component 203, thereby increasing the utilization rate of the capture component 203.

[0062] At the same time, the entrainment capacity of the oil on the intercepted solid particles is reduced. No oil passes between the outlet end of the liquid inlet pipe 101a and the inlet side 102. The solid particles accumulated here will not impact the capture component 203 again, reducing the probability of solid particles being stuck and increasing the life of the capture component 203.

[0063] The remaining structure is the same as that of Example 2.

[0064] It should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention rather than to limit it. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that the technical solutions of the present invention may be modified or replaced by equivalents without departing from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the present invention, which should all be included in the scope of the claims of the present invention.
