[0002] With the deepening of oil field development, low permeability reservoirs and fault block reservoirs begin to produce sand. When the oil pump works in such sand-containing oil wells, it often fails due to sand stuck in the plunger or valve group. The commonly used anti-sticking method is to use a long plunger to prevent sand from sticking in the pump. However, the conventional long plunger anti-sand sticking pump is mainly suitable for larger sand particles and is not suitable for low permeability and fault block reservoirs. The main reason is that the sand particles in these reservoirs are small and easy to enter the gap. Secondly, the pump depth of this type of oil well is generally deep. When the fixed valve settles the sand particles, the pump is opened again. The pressure difference between the fixed valve ball and the valve seat is large, and the gap jet occurs, causing the valve group to fail quickly.

[0087] An external valve 5 is provided at the upper end of the plunger 7, and a lower liquid outlet valve 9 is provided at the lower end. The diameter of the external valve 5 is larger than the diameter of the pump barrel to prevent the plunger 7 from falling into the pump barrel 6. The upper end of the external valve 5 is connected to the sand removal rotating device 3 on the pump, and the upper end of the sand removal rotating device 3 on the pump is connected to the sucker rod 1.

[0088] The space below the opening of the lower end of the sand settling cylinder 15 under the pump cyclone sand removal device 14 is called the first sand settling chamber 19;
