DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0013] To make the above-mentioned objects, features and advantages of the present invention more obvious and easy to understand, the following is a brief description of the present invention in conjunction with the attached Figure 1-Figure 6 The present invention is further described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.
[0014] The dual-channel hydraulically controlled downhole test blowout preventer used in this embodiment has the following specific structure: the connecting pipe 6 is connected and fixed to the upper joint 1 through threads; the pressure transmission sleeve 7 is connected and fixed to the connecting pipe 6 through threads; the sealing pipe 8 is connected and fixed to the pressure transmission sleeve 7 through threads; the ball valve outer tube 9 is connected and fixed to the pressure transmission sleeve 7 through threads; the upper ball seat 12 is connected and fixed to the sealing pipe 8 through threads; the left end of the spacer sleeve 10 is inserted into the pressure transmission sleeve 7, and the right end is inserted into the upper ball seat 12 and fixed in the middle position between the pressure transmission sleeve and the upper ball seat, and a cavity is formed between the spacer sleeve 10 and the sealing pipe 8 for passing liquid (see Figure 3C); the piston 11 is sleeved on the spacer sleeve 10 and inserted into the ball valve outer tube 9 at the same time, and can move left and right here; the rack sleeve 13 is sleeved on the upper ball seat 12, and is connected and fixed to the piston 11 by threads, so it can move synchronously with the piston; one of the sealing seats 14 is inserted into the upper ball seat 12, and the other is inserted into the lower ball seat 15; the valve ball 20 is installed between the two sealing seats 14, and the sealing seat and the valve ball are in contact with the same spherical surface; the lower ball seat 15 is inserted into the lower joint 16, and the spring 17 is installed in the lower ball seat 15. At the same time, the lower joint 16 is connected and fixed to the ball valve outer tube 9 by threads. At this time, the spring 17 has a certain compression stroke, and at the same time pushes the lower ball seat 15 to move to the left so that the contact surface of the sealing seat 14 and the valve ball 20 have a certain contact stress, ensuring that the sealing performance of the valve ball 20 is reliable when it is closed; the gear 19 passes through the boss thereon (see Figure 2 G) into the groove on the valve ball 20 (see Figure 2 H), while the teeth on the gear (see Figure 2 I) and the upper teeth of the rack sleeve 13 (see Figure 2 K); the gear pressing cap 18 is inserted into the gear 19 and connected and fixed to the valve ball 20 through threads, and the gear position is fixed to prevent the gear from moving. Since two symmetrical gear rack mechanisms are set, both sides of the valve ball and the inner side of the rack sleeve are flat (see Figure 2 L and M), so when the rack moves left and right, the valve ball can only rotate around the rotation axis J (see Figure 2 J) rotates, when it rotates counterclockwise 90 degrees, the channel is closed, and when it rotates clockwise 90 degrees again, the channel returns to the open state; the protective sleeve 3 is outside the connecting pipe 6 and is connected and fixed to the pressure transmission sleeve 7 through a thread; it is sleeved on the upper joint 1 and is connected and fixed to the protective sleeve 3 through a thread; one end of the pressure transmission pipe A4 is connected to the pressure transmission sleeve 7 and is firmly welded by argon arc welding, and the other end is led out to the wellhead after passing through the transition sleeve 2; one end of the pressure transmission pipe B5 is connected to the pressure transmission sleeve 7 and is firmly welded by argon arc welding, and the other end is led out to the wellhead after passing through the transition sleeve 2.
[0015] 3. Working principle: The tool has the function of closing and opening the oil pipe channel on the ground, and can meet the functions of testing under the oil pipe or wireline tools and replacing the wellhead oil pipe valve.
[0016] (I) Tool lowering: The tool is connected to the oil pipe and the lower part of the first oil pipe is hung down into the well. During the lowering process, the pressure transmission pipes A and B are led out to the ground.
[0017] (II) Closing the channel: After the tool is lowered into the well, when the channel needs to be closed, the high-pressure outlet of the surface pressure device is connected to the pressure transmission pipe A and pressure is applied. At this time, the high-pressure liquid is transmitted to the left side of the piston 11 through the pressure transmission pipe, pushing the piston to the right. Since the rack sleeve 13 and the piston 11 are fixedly connected by threads, the rack sleeve 13 and the piston 11 move synchronously. At this time, the rack sleeve 13 will cause the gear to rotate around the J axis (see Figure 2 J) rotates counterclockwise, when O and P touch (see Figure 3 O and P) to rotate the valve ball 20 exactly 90 degrees to close the channel, and at the same time seal the high-pressure fluid in the lower part of the valve ball 20. After the pressure is released from the upper part of the valve ball 20, the test tools or wire tools can be lowered, the valve can be replaced, and other construction operations can be carried out, thus avoiding the danger of climbing or killing the well to erect a test blowout preventer, etc., thereby improving the operation efficiency and saving the operation cost.
[0018] (III) Opening the channel: When the channel needs to be opened, connect the high-pressure outlet of the ground pressure device to the pressure transmission pipe B and pressurize it. At this time, the high-pressure liquid is transmitted to the pressure transmission pipe through the pressure transmission pipe. Figure 3 The cavity at C is transmitted to F through D, pushing the piston to move to the left. Since the rack sleeve 13 and the piston 11 are fixedly connected by threads, the rack sleeve 13 and the piston 11 move synchronously. At this time, the rack sleeve 13 will make the gear rotate around the J axis (see Figure 2 J) is rotated clockwise, and when the piston 11 returns to the position shown in the figure, the valve ball 20 is rotated 90 degrees to open the channel. Then the test tool or wire tool can be put into the test operation normally, and the valve replacement well can be produced normally. Therefore, the tool has the advantages of simple operation, safety and reliability, and thus has a good application prospect.

Any person skilled in the art can easily think of changes or substitutions within the technical scope disclosed by the present invention, which should be included in the protection scope of the present invention. Therefore, the protection scope of the present invention should be based on the protection scope of the claims.
