[0055] In one embodiment, a downhole high-temperature measurement device is housed in a heat- and pressure-resistant housing, ensuring that temperature measurement, storage, and processing at various depths can be completed in a single trip, even in harsh environments up to 200°C.

The main technical parameters of the measuring device body 1 are as follows: Dimensions: φ203mm; Inner diameter: 80mm; Buckle type: 631*630mm; Measurement error less than 5%; Material grade: P550; Annular temperature: 0-150°C / ±1°C.

[0056] In one embodiment, an underground high-temperature measuring device includes a measuring device body 1, a connecting rod 2, a telescopic rod 3 and a sensor 4. The bottom of the measuring device body 1 is connected to the connecting rod 2, the telescopic rod 3 is inserted into the inside of the connecting rod 2, and the sensor 4 is connected to one end of the telescopic rod 3. A protective mechanism is provided on the surface of the sensor 4, and the protective mechanism includes a threaded block 5, a thermal insulation cover 6, an internal thread 7, a spring sleeve 8, a spring 9, a push block 10, a push rod 11, a first slot 12, a second slot 13, an exhaust fan 14, a heat dissipation hole 15 and a temperature sensor 16. The threaded block 5 is connected to the side of the telescopic rod 3 close to the sensor 4, internal threads 7 are provided on both sides of the interior of the thermal insulation cover 6, the spring sleeve 8 is provided at the top of the telescopic rod 3, the spring 9 is provided inside the spring sleeve 8, the push block 10 is provided at one end of the spring 9, the push rod 11 is connected to one side of the push block 10, the first slot 12 and the second slot 13 are opened at the upper and lower ends of one side of the surface of the connecting rod 2, the exhaust fan 14 is provided on one side of the interior of the measuring device body 1, the heat dissipation hole 15 is provided on one side of the surface of the measuring device body 1, and the temperature sensor 16 is provided on the other side of the interior of the measuring device body 1.

[0057] Preferably, the inner material of the heat-insulating cover 6 is a heat-insulating material. When in use, the heat-insulating cover 6 has a heat-insulating effect, avoiding the problem that the temperature measurement of the sensor 4 is affected by high or low weather temperatures.

[0058] Preferably, the size of the heat-insulating cover 6 is larger than that of the sensor 4, and the heat-insulating cover 6 is threadedly connected to the threaded block 5 via the internal thread 7. During use, when it is necessary to use the measuring device body 1 to measure downhole, the heat-insulating cover 6 can be removed from the surface of the threaded block 5 via the internal thread 7, and then the measurement can be carried out using the sensor 4. The threaded connection can make the heat-insulating cover 6 more stable when protecting the sensor 4, and prevent the heat-insulating cover 6 from accidentally falling off.

[0059] Preferably, the push block 10 forms an elastic structure between the spring sleeve 8 and the spring 9, and two sets of springs 9 are symmetrically arranged inside the spring sleeve 8. When using the measuring device body 1 to measure the downhole temperature, you can first pinch the push rods 11 on both sides to push the push block 10, so that the push block 10 squeezes the spring 9 and inserts the push rod 11 into the interior of the connecting rod 2 through the first slot 12.

[0060] Preferably, the first slot 12 and the second slot 13 are on the same longitudinal center line. During use, the telescopic rod 3 is then held and slowly withdrawn from the interior of the connecting rod 2. When the push rod 11 slides into the second slot 13, since it is not squeezed, the spring 9 pushes the push block 10 and pushes the push rod 11 into the second slots 13 on both sides for fixation, thus completing the extension of the connecting rod 2. When the connecting rod 2 needs to be retracted, the push rods 11 on both sides can be pinched first so that the push blocks 10 squeeze the springs 9, and then the telescopic rod 3 is slowly inserted into the interior of the connecting rod 2. When the push rod 11 slides into the first slot 12, the spring 9 pushes the push block 10 and inserts the push rod 11 into the first slots 12 on both sides for fixation, thus completing the retraction of the connecting rod 2, avoiding the problem of the connecting rod 2 being too long and inconvenient to carry, and improving the convenience of carrying.

[0061] Preferably, three groups of heat dissipation holes 15 are provided on one side of the surface of the measuring device body 1. During use, when the temperature of the measuring device body 1 is high, the temperature sensor 16 senses it and activates the exhaust fan 14 to dissipate heat from within the measuring device body 1, preventing prolonged high temperatures from affecting the normal use of the measuring device body 1.

[0062] When it is necessary to use the measuring device body 1 to measure the underground, the heat-insulating cover 6 can be removed from the surface of the threaded block 5 through the internal thread 7, and then the measurement can be carried out through the sensor 4, so that the heat-insulating cover 6 has the effect of insulation, avoiding the problem that the accuracy of the temperature measurement by the sensor 4 is affected by the large temperature difference in the weather; when it is necessary to use the measuring device body 1 to measure the underground temperature, you can first pinch the push rods 11 on both sides to push the push block 10 to squeeze the spring 9, and insert the push rod 11 into the interior of the connecting rod 2 through the first slot 12, then hold the telescopic rod 3 and slowly pull the telescopic rod 3 out from the interior of the connecting rod 2, and when the push rod 11 slides into the position of the second slot 13, the spring 9 will push the push block 10 to insert the push rod 11 into the second slot 1 on both sides. 3 is fixed in it, thus completing the extension of the connecting rod 2. When the connecting rod 2 needs to be retracted, you can first pinch the push rods 11 on both sides so that the push block 10 squeezes the spring 9, and then slowly insert the telescopic rod 3 into the interior of the connecting rod 2. When the push rod 11 slides into the position of the first slot 12, the spring 9 will push the push block 10 to insert the push rod 11 into the first slot 12 on both sides for fixation. In this way, the contraction of the connecting rod 2 is completed, avoiding the problem that the connecting rod 2 is long and inconvenient to carry, and improving the convenience of carrying. When the device temperature of the measuring device body 1 is high, the temperature sensor 16 will be sensed and the exhaust fan 14 will be turned on to dissipate heat to the inside of the measuring device body 1, so as to avoid long-term high temperature affecting the normal use of the measuring device body 1.

[0063] Finally, it should be noted that the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of this application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in this application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without making any creative work are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0064] The above description is merely illustrative of certain exemplary embodiments of the present invention. It goes without saying that those skilled in the art will be able to modify the described embodiments in various ways without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Therefore, the above drawings and description are illustrative in nature and should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of the claims.
