Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to a device for pumping oil downhole in a petroleum field. Background Art

[0002] At present, the main pumping unit in service in oil fields is the crank-balanced beam pumping unit, which has problems such as high energy consumption, difficulty in adjusting balance, and complex operation procedures. In particular, with the increasing number of low-yield wells in the development of oil fields, the conventional crank-balanced beam pumping unit lifting process for low-yield wells has the problem of low effective load rate and difficulty in adapting to the demand for artificial lifting of large-scale low-yield wells in addition to the aforementioned problems. Summary of the invention

[0003] The purpose of the present application is to provide an oil pump to solve the problems of conventional crank-beam pumping unit lifting process, such as high energy consumption, difficulty in adjusting balance, complex operation procedures and low effective load rate.

[0004] The above purpose is achieved through the following technical solutions:

[0005] The oil pumping unit comprises a base, a large frame, a rear bracket, an electric motor, a reducer, a crank, a lower connecting rod, a rocker, a walking beam, a donkey head and a counterweight.

[0006] The main frame and the rear bracket are fixed to the base, the motor and the reducer are connected and installed on the rear bracket, the reducer shaft is connected to one end of the crank, the other end of the crank is hinged to one end of the lower connecting rod, the other end of the lower connecting rod is hinged to the middle part of the rocker, the lower part of the rocker is hinged to the rear bracket, the upper part of the rocker is hinged to the lower part of the upper connecting rod, the upper part of the upper connecting rod is hinged to the rear part of the rocker beam, the middle part of the rocker beam is hinged to the top of the main frame, the front part of the rocker beam is fixedly connected to the donkey head, the donkey head is flexibly connected to the downhole load, and the rear of the rocker beam is also connected to the counterweight.

[0007] The technical solution of this application has the following beneficial effects:

[0008] 1. The present application adopts a motor to drive the reducer to rotate, drive the crank to rotate, and convert the circular motion of the crank into a multiple-stroke reciprocating linear motion of the wellhead through a crank-connecting rod rocker mechanism. The crank rotation stroke undergoes two stroke increases, namely, the connecting rod rocker stroke increase and the walking beam stroke increase. Under the same walking beam stroke increase, the crank length is shortened to achieve a short crank rotation to meet the multiple-stroke structural design of the wellhead stroke. The existing crank-balanced walking beam pumping unit has only one walking beam stroke increase, and the crank load is large, so its crank is longer and heavier. In comparison, the present application has a simple structure, a shortened crank length, and lightweight components, which makes maintenance convenient, practical, and more conducive to industrial production.

[0009] 2. This application cancels the crank balance of the previous pumping unit and adopts the beam balance to enhance the balancing effect of the counterweight, effectively balance the beam load, reduce the force on the crank and connecting rod, reduce the net torque peak on the crank shaft, reduce the installed power, effectively reduce the power loss, and save electricity. Especially for low-yield wells, the energy-saving effect is particularly obvious, and the prospects for promotion and application are broad. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0014] The motor 4 drives the reducer 5 to rotate, driving the crank 6 to rotate in a circle. The crank 6 drives the rocker 8 to swing back and forth around its lower hinge through the lower connecting rod 7.
