[0064] Among them, the drawings are only used for illustrative explanations, and they only represent schematic diagrams rather than actual pictures, and should not be understood as limitations on the present invention. In order to better illustrate the embodiments of the present invention, some parts of the drawings may be omitted, enlarged or reduced, and do not represent the size of actual products. For those skilled in the art, it is understandable that some well-known structures and their descriptions in the drawings may be omitted.

Therefore, the terms describing the position relationship in the drawings are only used for illustrative purposes and cannot be understood as limiting the present invention. For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0066] See also Figures 1 to 13 The double-position hydraulic chuck provided by the present invention is exquisitely composed of six parts: 1-rear flange, 2-slip seat, 3-clamping piston, 4-claw, 5-chuck seat, 6-front flange. During use, the chuck is tightly connected to the main shaft of the power head, and the rear flange 1 is designed with an equilateral multi-sided boss 61, which perfectly matches the water braid shaft, making it easy to remove the water braid shaft from the drill pipe shaft.

[0067] The rear flange 1 not only realizes the stable connection between the chuck and the spindle of the power head, but also provides a key hydraulic oil channel to ensure the smooth transmission of torque and movement of the power head. Figure 2 As shown, the rear flange 1 has a connecting thread 11 connected to the main shaft of the power head, a plurality of threaded holes 12 connected to the main shaft, a plurality of positioning pin holes 13 connected to the main shaft, and a torque transmission boss 14 connected to the cava seat.

[0068] The slip seat 2 plays an important role in connecting the front and rear flanges, and simultaneously accommodates the slips and transmits torque. Its structure includes a slip groove 21 for installing the slips and a threaded hole 22 connected with the front and rear flanges.

[0069] The clamping piston 3 is uniquely designed, comprising two sets of slip grooves 31, track grooves 32 and sealing ring grooves 33 in opposite directions, ensuring that the slips move radially along the chuck under the action of the track grooves to achieve precise clamping and opening actions.

[0070] The slip 4 is a key component for clamping the drill pipe, and is composed of a track 41, a matching surface 42 and a tooth shape 43. The track 41 cooperates with the track groove 32 to transmit the clamping force; the matching surface 42 cooperates with the slip groove 21; the tooth surface 43 is composed of a plurality of tooth shapes to increase the friction coefficient and the clamping force.

[0072] The drill pipe connection structure includes a drill pipe A, a clamp B, a two-position hydraulic chuck C, a power head spindle C and a water braid. The water braid transmits torque through the polygon on the water braid shaft and the polygon of the spindle. The polygon at the rear end of the water braid shaft cooperates with the polygon of the front flange to complete the disassembly of the drill pipe and the water braid. The water braid is integrated with the spindle through a fastening device and can transmit torque and propulsion.

[0073] The double-position hydraulic chuck and its working principle of the present invention not only improve the efficiency of adding and removing drill rods, but also enhance the versatility and safety of the drilling rig, and provide a more efficient, safe and economical solution for drilling rig operation in underground working environments such as coal mines.

[0074] How it works

[0075] 1. Working principle of chuck

[0076] (1) Clamping and opening work: By adjusting the components, make the end face of the support rod flush with the end face of the flange. Hydraulic oil is introduced into both ends of the chuck piston. When oil flows into the lower chamber, the upper end slip is clamped and the lower end slip is loosened; conversely, when oil flows into the upper chamber, the lower end slip is clamped and the upper end slip is opened.

[0077] (2) Semi-open state: First, oil is introduced into the upper chamber, and then the screw of the adjusting assembly is adjusted to make the end face of the support rod extend out of the flange end face to half of the piston stroke. Then oil is introduced into the lower chamber to make the piston end face contact with the support rod. At this time, the slip is in a semi-open state.

[0078] Drill pipe connection and removal

[0079] 2. Drill pipe connection and removal

[0080] Drill rod A1 is located in the holder and is the last drill rod in drilling. Drill rod A2 is the location for adding or removing drill rods, while drill rod A3 is located in the power head to transmit torque and is also the original active drill rod.

[0081] 2.1 Drill pipe connection

[0082] (1) The holder holds the drill rod A1 and moves the power head (spindle) to leave space A2.

[0083] (2) Use a robot or manually place drill pipe A2 to the connection position.

[0084] (3) Adjust the chuck slip C1 to the open position.

[0085] (4) Move the power head D (spindle) axially so that the chuck slips clamp the drill pipe A2.

[0086] (5) Continue to move the power head D and rotate the main shaft to screw the drill rods A1 and A2 together.

[0087] (6) Loosen the chuck slip C1 and continue to rotate forward to connect the drill rods A2 and A3.

[0088] (7) Release clamp B and start drilling.

[0089] 2.2 Drill pipe disassembly

[0090] (1) Drill pipes A1 / A2 / A3 are in connected state.

[0091] (2) The clamp holds the drill rod A2.

[0092] (3) Slip C1 is in a loose state and C2 is in a clamped state.

[0093] (4) The chuck of the power head D is reversed to separate the drill rods A2 and A3.

[0094] (5) Slip C1 clamps the drill pipe A2 and reverses the chuck to separate the drill pipe A2 from the drill pipe.

[0095] (6) Remove drill rod A2.

[0096] (7) The power head moves forward, the chuck slip C1 clamps the drill rod A1, the clamp releases the drill rod A1, the power head drives the drill rod A1 to the A2 position, clamps the next drill rod, reverses the power head, separates the drill rod at the A2 position from the drill rod at the A1 position, opens the slip C1, and removes the drill rod at the A2 position; the cycle is repeated in sequence to remove all the drill rods.

[0097] 2.3 Replacement of Drill Pipe A3

[0098] (1) Remove the water braid and the main shaft.

[0099] (2) Adjust the distance between the water braid clamp and the chuck to facilitate the placement of the water braid and drill pipe assembly.

[0100] (3) The holder clamps the drill pipe and places the tail polygon of the water braid on the front flange polygon of the chuck.

[0101] (4) Rotate the power head to separate the water braid from the drill pipe to replace the drill pipe.

[0102] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solution 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 solution of the present invention can be modified or replaced by equivalents without departing from the purpose and scope of the technical solution, which should be included in the scope of the claims of the present invention.
