[0040] As shown in Figure 3 and Figure 5 As shown, an upper end of the collecting cylinder 31 is rotatably connected with the fracturing assembly 2 so that the collecting cylinder 31 can form an angle with the vertical plane, in other words, the collecting cylinder 31 can be inclined relative to the fracturing assembly 2, facilitating the adaptation to the geostress measurement in the inclined hole. It can be understood that the inclination angle of the inclined hole is generally very small.
[0041] A lower end of the collecting cylinder 31 is movably connected with the lower packer 1, the imaging component 32 is arranged in the collecting cylinder 31, the collecting cylinder 31 can move up and down relative to the fracturing assembly 2 and the lower packer 1, that is, the collecting cylinder 31 can move up or down in the isolation space 13, facilitating the adjustment of the position of the imaging component 32 in the isolation space 13 to obtain the hole wall information at different height positions. The collecting cylinder 31 can rotate around the up and down direction relative to the fracturing assembly 2 and the lower packer 1, so that the collecting cylinder 31 can rotate left or right in the isolation space 13, facilitating the adjustment of the orientation direction of the imaging component 32 in the isolation space 13 to obtain the hole wall information at different azimuths, and real-time imaging of the fracture state.
[0042] The camera imaging part comprises at least one camera 3221, the collecting cylinder 31 is provided with a transparent window 311 corresponding to the camera 3221, the camera 3221 is arranged towards the transparent window 311, facilitating the camera 3221 to shoot the hole wall.

[0046] In the water pressure fracturing measurement of ground stress experiment, a series of pressurization, pressure closing and pressure maintaining operations are performed on the fractured section to implement multiple cyclic fracturing, and finally a series of mechanical parameters required by a calculation formula are obtained by using the ground and underground water pressure measuring instruments to measure the ground stress size. Specifically, the stress field near the middle part of the section of the borehole subjected to pressurization in the hydraulic fracturing process is composed of two parts, which are the uniform pressure in the hole and the ground stress field (σ xx , σ yy , σ zz ), wherein σ xx , σ yy are the horizontal stresses of the rock stratum; and σ zz is the vertical principal stress of the rock stratum. During the hydraulic fracturing process, when the fractured section is closed, σ xx is approximately equal to the pressure of the ground cover layer. According to the assumption that the fracture propagates along the path of minimum resistance, the closing pressure P s is equal to the minimum horizontal principal stress value and the fracture direction is perpendicular to the minimum principal stress direction. That is, σ min = P s (1); the vertical principal stress σ zz can be obtained by σ v = γd (2), wherein γ is the rock bulk density; and d is the depth of the measured hole section from the ground surface. According to the theory of elasticity, the following formula P b -P0 = T0 + 3σ min -σ max -2P0 (3) can be derived. The compressive stress is taken as a positive value. P b is the fracture pressure, P0 is the initial pore pressure of the rock, T0 is the tensile strength of the rock, σ min is the minimum horizontal principal stress, and σ max is the maximum horizontal principal stress. The tensile strength of the rock can be obtained by processing a rock sample at a corresponding depth into a thick-walled hollow cylinder, applying internal pressure to the cylinder until the rock breaks, and the pressure at the time of breaking is the tensile strength of the rock. After T0, P s , P b and P0 are measured, the maximum horizontal principal stress can be calculated by equation (3), that is, σ max = T0 + 3P s -P b -P0 (4)
[0047] This invention, through the installation of a collection component 3 connected to the fracturing component 2 within the containment space 13, allows the collection cylinder 31 to move vertically and rotate around the fracturing component 2 and the second packer 12. This enables the imaging component 32 within the collection cylinder 31 to move upwards or downwards within the containment space 13 to obtain borehole wall information at different heights. Simultaneously, the imaging component 32 can rotate within the containment space 13 to obtain borehole wall information from different orientations. The fracturing component 2 induces hydraulic fracturing of the borehole wall, and the collection component performs real-time imaging of the borehole wall information. Fracturing and imaging can be completed in a single well fracturing operation to test the magnitude and direction of the principal stress, significantly improving measurement efficiency. Furthermore, since the imaging component 32 is movable and rotatable within the containment space 13, it facilitates dynamic imaging of the borehole wall within the containment space 13, obtaining clear traces of induced fractures. The imaging results are more accurate and reliable, thereby improving the accuracy of geostress measurement.
[0048] In some embodiments, the geostress measurement and movable imaging integrated device based on hydraulic fracturing further includes a first control component 4. The first control component 4 includes a sleeve 41 and a drive component 42. The sleeve 41 is rotatably connected to the fracturing component 2 so that the sleeve 41 can form an angle with the vertical plane. At least a portion of the collecting cylinder 31 is located inside the sleeve 41 and is slidably connected to the sleeve 41 in a sealed manner. The drive component 42 is disposed inside the sleeve 41 and connected to the collecting cylinder 31 so that the collecting cylinder 31 can move in the vertical direction and rotate about the vertical direction relative to the sleeve 41.
[0049] Specifically, such as Figure 6 As shown, the upper end of the sleeve 41 is connected to the fracturing assembly 2, and the lower end of the sleeve 41 is fitted onto the collecting cylinder 31. The driving component 42 is located inside the sleeve 41 and connected to the upper end of the collecting cylinder 31. The collecting cylinder 31 can be moved in the vertical direction and rotated around the vertical direction by the driving component 42, which facilitates the adjustment of the position and orientation of the imaging component 32 and obtains clear fracture traces.
[0050] Optionally, a connecting rod 45 is also provided inside the sleeve 41. The upper end of the connecting rod 45 passes through the sleeve 41 and is connected to the upper fracturing assembly 2, and the lower end of the connecting rod 45 is connected to the upper end of the driving component 42.
[0051] In some embodiments, such as Figures 1-3As shown, the ultrasonic imaging part 321 comprises an ultrasonic wave transmitting end 3211 and an ultrasonic wave receiving end 3212, which are arranged in a vertical direction, and the ultrasonic wave transmitting end 3211 is arranged in the sleeve 41, and the ultrasonic wave receiving end 3212 is arranged in the collecting cylinder 31. By arranging the ultrasonic wave transmitting end 3211 and the ultrasonic wave receiving end 3212 at different heights, it can be ensured that the ultrasonic wave receiving end 3212 can receive the ultrasonic wave signal emitted by the ultrasonic wave transmitting end 3211, and the propagation path of the ultrasonic wave signal during measurement is relatively stable, thereby improving the measurement accuracy.
[0052] Optionally, the ultrasonic imaging part 321 further comprises an ultrasonic signal processing circuit configured to convert the ultrasonic signal into image information. The transmitting circuit can be arranged to excite the ultrasonic wave transmitter to work, and the signal collected by the receiving transducer can be digitally processed. The corresponding receiving and collecting circuit can realize high-precision digital signal. The receiving and collecting circuit needs to realize preamplification, filtering, automatic gain adjustment, ADC collection, etc. The specific digital processing and the related circuit belong to the prior art, and will not be described here.
[0053] In some embodiments, the fracturing assembly 2 further comprises a shunt pipe 22 and a one-way valve 23. The shunt pipe 22 has a first channel and a second channel. One end of the first channel is in communication with the fracturing source, and the other end of the first channel is in communication with the sealing space 13 through the side wall surface of the driving part 42 and the collecting cylinder 31. The one-way valve 23 is arranged in the first channel. The second channel is used for passing through the cable. One end of the cable is adapted to be connected with the ground cable, and the other end of the cable is connected with the imaging part 32.
[0054] Specifically, as shown in Figures 4-6 The upper end of the first channel is in communication with the fracturing source and is isolated from the cavity 111 of the first packer 11, that is, the first channel is not in communication with the fracturing pipe 21 and the cavity 111. The lower end of the first channel is in communication with the sealing space 13 through the side wall surface of the driving part 42 and the collecting cylinder 31, so as to deliver the fracturing fluid to the outside of the collecting cylinder 31. By arranging the fracturing hole 212 at the upper end of the sealing space 13 and the second channel outlet at the lower end of the sealing space 13, the fracturing fluid can flow out at the upper end and the lower end of the sealing space 13 at the same time, thereby improving the fracturing efficiency. The second channel is used for passing through the cable. The upper end of the cable is connected with the ground cable, and the lower end of the cable is connected with the imaging part 32 to provide power support and signal transmission for the imaging part 32.
[0055] As shown in Figure 8As shown, the one-way valve 23 includes a valve body 231, a compression spring 232, and a valve ball 233. The valve body 231 has a water outlet channel 2311. The diameter of the valve ball 233 is slightly smaller than that of the water outlet channel 2311, facilitating smooth sliding of the valve ball 233 within the water outlet channel 2311. The inner wall of the water outlet channel 2311 includes a first stop 23111 and a second stop 23112 arranged at intervals in the vertical direction. The compression spring 232 and the valve ball 233 are installed between the first stop 23111 and the second stop 23112. When the pressure reaches a level sufficient to open the valve ball 233, the compression spring 232 is compressed, and fracturing fluid can flow out from the water outlet end of the water outlet channel 2311. When the pressure is less than the elastic potential energy of the compression spring 232, the fracturing fluid cannot flow out from the water outlet end of the water outlet channel 2311.
[0056] When the fracturing fluid fully fills the isolation space 13, the elastic potential energy provided by the compression spring 232 under the action of the fracturing fluid in the isolation space 13 will press the valve ball 233 tightly against the second block 23112, so that the water flow cannot flow back into the first channel from the outlet end, ensuring that the fracturing fluid in the isolation space 13 will not flow back through the outlet end, and also ensuring that the pressure in the fracturing area is stable during fracturing, providing a pressure-maintaining function for the implementation of hydraulic fracturing operations.
[0057] In some embodiments, the drive component 42 includes a driver 421 and a telescopic rod 422. The driver 421 is connected to the telescopic rod 422, and the telescopic rod 422 is connected to the collecting cylinder 31. The first control component 4 also includes a take-up box 43, which is located below the telescopic rod 422 and is used to take up and untie the cable when the collecting cylinder 31 moves.
[0058] Specifically, such as Figure 6 As shown, the actuator 421 can control the extension and retraction of the telescopic rod 422, and can also control the rotation of the actuator 421. The telescopic rod 422 is composed of multiple sections of sealed steel pipes with different diameters, and can freely extend and retract in the horizontal direction. When the telescopic rod 422 is in the retracted state, the collecting cylinder 31 is stored inside the sleeve 41. When the telescopic rod 422 is in the extended state, the collecting cylinder 31 is released outside the sleeve 41. Here, storage and release mean that most of the cylinder body of the collecting cylinder 31 is located inside or outside the sleeve 41.
[0059] As the telescopic rod 422 extends and retracts, the cable length of the second channel varies as the collecting cylinder 31 moves up and down. By setting up a cable take-up box 43 to take up the cable when the collecting cylinder 31 moves upward and to release the cable when the collecting cylinder 31 moves downward, cable tangling is avoided and the system adapts to different states of the telescopic rod 422.
[0060] At least a portion of the diversion pipe 22 may be configured as a channel formed by a retractable flexible hose to accommodate the extension and retraction of the telescopic rod 422.
[0061] In some embodiments, the first control assembly 4 further comprises a hydraulic power storage device 44 connected to the driver 421 for generating power and storing when the fracturing fluid in the first channel passes. Through the arrangement of the hydraulic power storage device 44, power generation and storage can be carried out when the fracturing fluid flows through the hydraulic power storage device 44, avoiding the occurrence of power failure of the imaging component 32 when the cable is broken or other accidents occur.
[0062] Optionally, the driver 421 can be powered by a cable or by a hydraulic power storage device 44.
[0063] Optionally, the inside of the connecting rod 45, the hydraulic power storage device 44, the driver 421 and the telescopic rod 422 are provided with channels to facilitate the passage of the shunt pipe 22, so that the first channel of the shunt pipe 22 is in communication with the fracturing source, and the lower end of the first channel passes through the connecting rod 45, the hydraulic power storage device 44, the driver 421, the telescopic rod 422 and the side wall of the collection cylinder 31 in turn, and the fracturing fluid is transported into the sealing space 13 outside the collection cylinder 31.

[0065] Specifically, as shown in Figures 5-7 The upper end and the lower end of the collection cylinder 31 are provided with a water barrier 313 and a blocking part 314, the diameter of the blocking part 314 is slightly larger than the diameter of the collection cylinder 31, and the water barrier 313 is arranged on the outer circumferential surface of the collection cylinder 31 to prevent the fracturing fluid in the sealing space 13 from entering the collection cylinder 31 from the upper and lower ends of the collection cylinder 31, and also to play a buffering effect during the movement of the collection cylinder 31.
[0066] The upper end of the collection cylinder 31 is connected to the sleeve 41, and the upper end blocking part 314 is arranged in the sleeve 41 to prevent the upper end of the collection cylinder 31 from being separated from the sleeve 41, and the lower end of the collection cylinder 31 is connected to the mounting cylinder 51, and the lower end blocking part 314 is arranged in the collection cylinder 31 to prevent the lower end of the collection cylinder 31 from being separated from the mounting cylinder 51, and the arrangement of the blocking part 314 can also limit the movement position of the collection cylinder 31 in the up-down direction.
[0067] The first hydraulic rod 521 extends in the up-down direction, the upper end of the first hydraulic rod 521 is connected with the lower end of the collecting cylinder 31 through a bearing, facilitating the circumferential rotation of the collecting cylinder 31 relative to the first hydraulic rod 521, and the lower end of the first hydraulic rod 521 is connected with the second packer 12. Through the arrangement of the first hydraulic rod 521, the position of the collecting cylinder 31 in the up-down direction can be further adjusted.
