Description

[0002] The blowout preventer is a key part of the well control device, and is an important device for controlling the wellhead pressure and effectively preventing blowout accidents. The switch of the hydraulic blowout preventer is controlled by the hydraulic oil provided by the hydraulic blowout preventer control device. The control device prepares and stores sufficient pressure oil in advance, and controls the flow direction of the pressure oil, so that the blowout preventer can be quickly switched. The blowout preventer realizes the cutting function by controlling the pressure of the wellhead or spraying system. When the pressure exceeds the set value, it is automatically started. By closing or adjusting the valve, the flow rate of liquid or gas is reduced, or even completely cut off, so as to prevent the occurrence of wellhead gushing or spraying.

A hydraulic drive for a blowout preventer according to claim 5, wherein, The first gate shaft (8) is composed of a larger cylindrical shaft part and a smaller screw part, the smaller screw part is screwed with the balance bar (7) and passes through the center of the first piston (31), and the larger cylindrical shaft part is connected with the smaller screw part and is inserted into the inside of the first piston (31).

7. A hydraulic drive for a blowout preventer according to claim 6, wherein, The inner surface of the slot of the auxiliary compression plate (96) is also provided with a pressure sensor, the pressure sensor, the first motor (92) and the second motor (16) are signal connected with the control system.

8. The hydraulic drive for a blowout preventer of claim 7, wherein, The control of the control system on the locking gate (9) also includes the following control method: When the blowout preventer (1) is automatically started, the control system controls the hydraulic oil to enter the chamber outside the first hydraulic cylinder (3), the hydraulic oil pushes the first piston (31) to slide towards the inside close to the blowout preventer (1), at the same time, the first piston (31) pushes the first gate shaft (8) to drive the locking gate (9) to move inward, until the locking gate (9) is tightly fitted with the wellhead, then the control system controls the first motor (92) to start, the first motor (92) drives the first gear (93) to rotate, because the first gear (93) is engaged with the second gear (94), the second gear (94) rotates synchronously with the first gear (93), the rotation of the second gear (94) drives the connecting screw (95) connected with it to push the auxiliary compression plate (96) inward, when the pressure between the auxiliary compression plate (96) and the wellhead is set to a to b, the auxiliary compression plate (96) tightly seals the wellhead without the phenomenon of part damage due to excessive pressure, the actual pressure value received by the pressure sensor is c; When c is less than a, the control system controls the first motor (92) to continue to rotate, so that the connecting screw (95) continues to drive the auxiliary compression plate (96) to push inward, until c is greater than or equal to a, the first motor (92) is controlled to stop running; When c is greater than a and less than b, the control system controls the first motor (92) to stop running; When c is greater than b, the control system controls the first motor (92) to reverse, so that the connecting screw rod (95) pulls the auxiliary compression plate (96) to move outward until c is less than or equal to b, and the first motor (92) is controlled to stop running.

9. A hydraulic drive for a blowout preventer according to claim 8, wherein, The control system for controlling the cutting-off gate (20) further includes the following control method: When an emergency situation such as blowout, fire or leakage occurs in the work site, it is necessary to quickly cut off the oil pipeline to prevent the situation from getting worse. At this time, the control system controls the hydraulic oil to enter the second hydraulic cylinder (11), and at the same time, the second piston (111) pushes the second gate shaft (19) to drive the cutting-off gate (20) to move inward, and controls the second motor (16) to start forward rotation. The second motor (16) drives the second locking rod (18) to rotate through the shaft coupling (17), and the second locking rod (18) pushes inward at the same speed as the second piston (111) moves inward, to realize automatic synchronization and complete the locking work. The cutting-off knife (204) cuts off the oil pipeline, and at the same time, the petroleum below the cutting-off knife (204) enters the sliding cavity (202) through the oil flow channel (201), extrudes the outer side of the auxiliary sealing plate (203), and pushes the auxiliary sealing plate (203) inward, thereby strengthening the sealing effect of the cutting-off gate (20).
