Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of mine safety monitoring, and in particular relates to a directional drilling state monitoring device and a directional drilling state monitoring method. Background Art
[0002] As a key means to solve the gas problem in coal mines, gas extraction has been widely used in many high-gas and outburst mines, and has played an indispensable role in mine safety production. However, with the continuous deepening of coal mining depth, the gas content and ground stress in the coal seam are also gradually increasing. In many coal mines, gas extraction drilling operations frequently occur. The ejected gas and drilling slag flow into the drilling area in a large amount in a short period of time, resulting in excessive gas concentration, and may even cause serious disasters such as gas explosions, posing a major threat to mine safety production.
[0003] At present, many coal miners try to use blowout prevention devices to deal with this problem, such as installing tees or crosses at the orifices, and taking measures such as increasing the gas extraction volume to deal with the gas gushing out during the blowout. However, under complex mine conditions such as high gas content, high pressure, complex stress conditions, structurally affected areas, and mudstone roof and floor plates, problems such as hole collapse and hole blockage are often encountered during drilling operations. It is difficult for drilling rig operators to accurately judge the conditions in the hole. When the gas in the hole accumulates and is suddenly released, the existing blowout prevention devices are limited in their effectiveness in dealing with gas problems. A large amount of gas will still flow into the working environment, causing the gas concentration in the working area to exceed the standard. Summary of the invention
[0004] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a directional drilling state monitoring device, which solves the problem that it is difficult for a drilling rig operator to accurately judge the condition in the hole during the existing drilling operation.

[0008] The information acquisition unit is arranged in the drill pipe short circuit, and the information acquisition unit comprises a pressure sensor, a flow velocity sensor and an instrument cabin. The instrument cabin is provided with a video sensor. The pressure sensor, the flow velocity sensor and the video sensor are respectively connected with the communication cable through wires.

The ground control terminal monitors the directional drilling status through pressure data or flow rate data.
[0012] Another technical solution of the present invention is also characterized in that: The specific process of determining the medium type in the annulus in S3 is as follows: after the drill pipe is short-circuited and drilled into the annulus, the video sensor is turned on in real time to take an annulus picture, and the annulus picture data is transmitted to the computer in real time. The computer determines the type of the filling medium in the annulus based on the picture taken by the video sensor.
[0013] In S3, a pressure sensor or a flow rate sensor is selected to detect the pressure data or flow rate data in the annulus. The specific process is: if the medium in the annulus is gas, the pressure data in the annulus is obtained by using a pressure sensor or the flow rate sensor is used to obtain the flow rate data in the annulus; if the medium in the annulus is liquid, the flow rate sensor is used to obtain the flow rate data in the annulus.
[0014] The specific process of S4 is: the measured annular pressure value is compared with the empirical value of the annular pressure value preset in the PLC for threshold judgment.
