[0039] The flexible connection nipple of the formation tester in this embodiment, because the upper control body 2 and the lower control body 4 are respectively hinged with the intermediate adapter body 3, the formation tester can rotate in the direction of the probe, so that the downhole posture of the formation tester can be adjusted, which is conducive to the setting of the probe on the well wall, thereby improving the success rate of setting. At the same time, because the downhole posture of the formation tester can be adjusted, the risk of the formation tester encountering obstruction or jamming is effectively reduced, thereby improving the use stability of the formation tester.

Similarly, when the supporting shaft 13 enters the supporting groove 14, a labyrinth seal is formed between the sealing ring groove 25 on the supporting shaft 13 and the inner side wall of the supporting groove 14.
