The focusing enhancement structure 2 is used to focus the gamma rays, reduce the energy loss of the rays during transmission, improve the focusing accuracy, and enhance the stability, thereby improving the focusing effect of the gamma rays, and thus improving the accuracy and stability of the monitor during the monitoring process. The focusing enhancement structure 2 includes a focusing mirror 21, a plurality of connecting rods 22, an annular bracket 23 and a concave reflector 24. The focusing mirror 21 is fixedly provided at the incident port at the bottom of the casing 1, one end of the plurality of connecting rods 22 is fixedly provided at the bottom of the casing 1, and the annular bracket 23 is fixedly provided at the other end of the plurality of connecting rods 22. The connecting rod 22 is used to support the annular bracket 23 and the concave reflector 24. The concave reflector 24 is fixedly provided in the annular bracket 23. The incident surface of the concave reflector 24 is a convex side, that is, away from the focusing mirror 2 1, the reflecting surface of the concave reflector 24 is concave, that is, the side close to the focusing mirror 21, which helps to reflect and converge the gamma rays to the focusing mirror 21. The concave reflector 24 is located below the focusing mirror 21, and the optical center axes of the focusing mirror 21 and the concave reflector 24 are aligned with each other to form a coordinated optical path, ensuring that the gamma rays can be accurately focused on the sodium iodide crystal after being reflected by the concave reflector 24 and focused by the focusing mirror 21, thereby improving the detection efficiency and accuracy of the monitor. A dynamic filtering structure 3 for filtering excess rays is also fixedly provided on the outer bottom of the casing 1. The dynamic filtering structure 3 is located between the focusing mirror 21 and the concave reflector 24. The dynamic filtering structure 3 includes a filtering component 31 and a driving component 32. The filtering component 31 can filter out unnecessary low-energy and high-energy gamma rays and only allow medium-energy gamma rays to pass through, thereby reducing background noise and improving the purity and accuracy of the detection data.

[0032] See also Figure 4-6Specifically, the filter assembly 31 includes a filter frame 31-1, a low-energy gamma ray filter layer 31-2, and a high-energy gamma ray filter layer 31-3. The filter frame 31-1 is a cylindrical structure with left and right sides open, and the filter frame 31-1 is fixedly arranged on the outer bottom of the housing 1. The focusing lens 21 is located in the filter frame 31-1. The filter frame 31-1 is used to support the low-energy gamma ray filter layer 31-2 and the high-energy gamma ray filter layer 31-3. The inner wall of the filter frame 31-1 is provided with two circular sliding The low-energy gamma ray filter layer 31-2 and the high-energy gamma ray filter layer 31-3 are respectively connected to the two circular sliding grooves in a sliding manner. The low-energy gamma ray filter layer 31-2 is close to the concave reflector 24, and the high-energy gamma ray filter layer 31-3 is close to the focusing mirror 21. After passing through the concave reflector 24, the rays will first pass through the low-energy gamma ray filter layer 31-2. The low-energy gamma ray filter layer 31-2 can absorb low-energy gamma rays and allow medium-energy gamma rays to pass through. After passing through the ray filter layer 31-2, the retained medium-energy and high-energy gamma rays will continue to pass through the high-energy gamma ray filter layer 31-3. The high-energy gamma ray filter layer 31-3 can absorb the high-energy gamma rays and allow the medium-energy gamma rays to pass through. Finally, the medium-energy gamma rays will be focused by the focusing lens 21 and come into contact with the sodium iodide crystals of the sodium iodide detector, which will analyze them. The drive component 32 is set on the filter frame 31-1, and the drive component 32 is connected to the low-energy gamma ray filter layer 31-2 and the high-energy gamma ray filter layer 31-3. The low-energy gamma ray filter layer 31-2 and the high-energy gamma ray filter layer 31-3 can rotate under the drive of the drive component 32. The drive component 32 enables the low-energy gamma ray filter layer 31-2 and the high-energy gamma ray filter layer 31-3 to rotate, ensuring that every part of the filter layer can be fully utilized, avoiding resource waste caused by uneven filtration, reducing aging of the filter layer, and extending its service life.
[0033] See also Figure 6-7Specifically, the driving assembly 32 includes a rotating shaft 32-1, a motor 32-2, a driving shaft 32-3, a first bevel gear 32-4 and a second bevel gear 32-5. The rotating shaft 32-1 is fixedly arranged between the low-energy gamma ray filter layer 31-2 and the high-energy gamma ray filter layer 31-3. The rotating shaft 32-1 plays the role of connecting and supporting the low-energy gamma ray filter layer 31-2 and the high-energy gamma ray filter layer 31-3. The motor 32-2 is fixedly arranged on the outer rear side of the filter frame 31-1 to provide power for the driving assembly 32. The driving shaft 32-3 is rotatably connected to the rear side of the filter frame 31-1. The first bevel gear 32-4 and the second bevel gear 32-5 are connected to each other, and one end of the driving shaft 32-3 is fixedly connected to the driving end of the motor 32-2 for transmitting the power of the motor 32-2. The first bevel gear 32-4 is fixedly set on the other end of the driving shaft 32-3, and the second bevel gear 32-5 is fixedly set on the rotating shaft 32-1, and the second bevel gear 32-5 is located on the front side of the first bevel gear 32-4. The second bevel gear 32-5 is meshed with the first bevel gear 32-4. The first bevel gear 32-4 and the second bevel gear 32-5 are used to transmit power and drive the low-energy gamma ray filter layer 31-2 and the high-energy gamma ray filter layer 31-3 to rotate.
[0034] See also Figure 6-7 Specifically, the dynamic filtering structure 3 also includes a heat dissipation component 33 for dissipating heat from the low-energy gamma ray filter layer 31-2 and the high-energy gamma ray filter layer 31-3. The heat dissipation component 33 is used to discharge the heat generated by the low-energy gamma ray filter layer 31-2 and the high-energy gamma ray filter layer 31-3 during filtering in a timely manner to prevent heat accumulation.
[0035] See also Figure 6-7 Specifically, the heat dissipation assembly 33 includes a transmission shaft 33-1, a third bevel gear 33-2 and a fan blade 33-3. The transmission shaft 33-1 is rotatably connected to the front side of the filter frame 31-1. The third bevel gear 33-2 is fixedly arranged at one end of the transmission shaft 33-1, and the third bevel gear 33-2 is located in front of the second bevel gear 32-5. The third bevel gear 33-2 is meshed with the second bevel gear 32-5. The fan blade 33-3 is fixedly arranged at the other end of the transmission shaft 33-1. A ventilation hole is opened on the front side of the filter frame 31-1, and the ventilation hole corresponds to the position of the fan blade 33-3. The transmission shaft 33-1 will drive the fan blade 33-3 to rotate synchronously under the transmission of the third bevel gear 33-2 and the second bevel gear 32-5, thereby discharging the heat generated by the low-energy gamma ray filter layer 31-2 and the high-energy gamma ray filter layer 31-3 through the ventilation hole.
[0036] See also Figure 5-6Specifically, the heat dissipation assembly 33 also includes multiple sets of heat dissipation vents 33-4, which are evenly distributed at the top and bottom of the filter frame 31-1. The heat dissipation vents 33-4 are tilted toward the low-energy gamma ray filter layer 31-2 and the high-energy gamma ray filter layer 31-3. When the fan blades 33-3 rotate, air is drawn into the filter frame 31-1 through the heat dissipation vents 33-4. The heat dissipation vents 33-4 are tilted toward the low-energy gamma ray filter layer 31-2 and the high-energy gamma ray filter layer 31-3. This tilted arrangement helps the air entering the heat dissipation vents 33-4 flow along the low-energy gamma ray filter layer 31-2 and the high-energy gamma ray filter layer 31-3, thereby removing heat. The tilted arrangement of the heat dissipation vents 33-4 allows air to more effectively contact the filter layers, thereby improving the heat dissipation effect. Furthermore, the heat dissipation vents 33-4, combined with the rotation of the filter layers, further enhance the heat dissipation effect. As the filter layer rotates, air entering through heat dissipation vents 33-4 contacts different surfaces of the filter layer, ensuring that heat is fully removed from the filter layer. This design not only improves heat dissipation efficiency but also ensures the stability and reliability of the filter layer during long-term operation. The combination of multiple heat dissipation vents 33-4 in heat dissipation assembly 33 and drive assembly 32 achieves dynamic heat dissipation from the filter layer.
[0037] See also Figure 5 Specifically, the low-energy gamma ray filter layer 31-2 is made of aluminum or beryllium, while the high-energy gamma ray filter layer 31-3 is made of lead or tungsten. The filtering surfaces of both the low-energy gamma ray filter layer 31-2 and the high-energy gamma ray filter layer 31-3 are wavy. The wavy shapes of the low-energy gamma ray filter layer 31-2 and the high-energy gamma ray filter layer 31-3 increase the filtering surface area, thereby providing more filtering paths and absorbing and filtering more gamma rays.
[0038] See also Figure 5 Specifically, the drive shaft 32-3 and the filter frame 31-1, as well as the transmission shaft 33-1 and the filter frame 31-1, are rotatably connected via sealed bearings. The sealed bearing connection greatly increases the stability of the drive shaft 32-3 and the transmission shaft 33-1 during rotation.
[0039] See also Figure 1-2 as well as Figure 9 Specifically, a protective structure 4 for protecting the focus enhancement structure 2 is further provided on the outer wall of the housing 1. The protective structure 4 can isolate the focus enhancement structure 2 from the external environment and prevent possible dangerous factors from damaging the focus enhancement structure 2.
[0040] See also Figure 1-2 as well as Figure 9Specifically, the protective structure 4 includes two sliders 41, a protective shell 42, two electric telescopic rods 43, and two connecting plates 44. Two slideways are provided on the outer wall of the housing 1, and the two sliders 41 are slidably connected to the two slideways, respectively. The inner wall of the protective shell 42 is fixedly connected to the two sliders 41, and both sides of the protective shell 42 are open. The two electric telescopic rods 43 are fixedly mounted on the outer wall of the housing 1, and the two connecting plates 44 are fixedly mounted on the driving ends of the two electric telescopic rods 43. The two connecting plates 44 are fixedly mounted on the outer wall of the protective shell 42. The electric telescopic rods 43 can drive the protective shell 42 to move, thereby achieving dynamic protection for the focus enhancement structure 2.
[0041] Working principle:
[0042] The working principle of the watermark flow monitor is based on the detection of gamma rays downhole by a sodium iodide detector. First, the monitor is lowered into the well using a steel wire rope. During the lowering process, the protective shell 42 of the protective mechanism remains outside the focusing enhancement structure 2, protecting the focusing enhancement structure 2 from damage caused by impact during the lowering process. When the steel wire rope lowers the monitor to the designated position, the staff activates the electric telescopic rod 43. The driving end of the electric telescopic rod 43 contracts, thereby driving the protective shell 42 upward, separating the protective shell 42 from the focusing enhancement structure. At this point, the monitor can be controlled to perform monitoring operations.
[0043] During monitoring, the gamma rays in the well first contact the incident surface of the concave reflector 24, that is, the convex side, and are reflected to the reflective surface of the concave reflector 24. The reflected gamma rays continue to propagate and contact the dynamic filtering structure 3 located between the concave reflector 24 and the focusing mirror 21. The dynamic filtering structure 3 can filter out unnecessary low-energy gamma rays and high-energy gamma rays, allowing qualified medium-energy gamma rays to pass through. After passing through the dynamic filtering structure 3, the medium-energy gamma rays continue to propagate and contact the focusing mirror 21 in the incident port. The focusing mirror 21 can focus the rays to a specific position, usually on a sodium iodide crystal. The function of the focusing mirror 21 is to further converge the filtered gamma rays to ensure that they can accurately reach the sodium iodide crystal, thereby improving detection efficiency and accuracy. Finally, the focused gamma rays contact the sodium iodide crystal, and the sodium iodide detector analyzes them, thereby achieving accurate detection of gamma rays in the well.
[0044] When the filter component 31 in the dynamic filtering structure 3 is filtering, the gamma rays will first pass through the low-energy gamma ray filter layer 31-2 after passing through the concave reflector 24. The low-energy gamma ray filter layer 31-2 can absorb the low-energy gamma rays and allow the medium-energy gamma rays to pass through. After passing through the low-energy gamma ray filter layer 31-2, the retained medium-energy and high-energy gamma rays will continue to pass through the high-energy gamma ray filter layer 31-3. The high-energy gamma ray filter layer 31-3 can absorb the high-energy gamma rays and allow the medium-energy gamma rays to pass through.
[0045] During the filtering process, the motor 32-2 of the driving component 32 in the dynamic filtering structure 3 will drive the driving shaft 32-3 to rotate, and the driving shaft 32-3 will drive the first bevel gear 32-4 to rotate, and the first bevel gear 32-4 will drive the second bevel gear 32-5 engaged therewith to rotate, and the second bevel gear 32-5 will drive the rotating shaft 32-1 and the low-energy gamma ray filter layer 31-2 and the high-energy gamma ray filter layer 31-3 to rotate, ensuring that every part of the filter layer can fully filter and absorb unnecessary gamma rays, avoiding the waste of resources caused by uneven filtration, and at the same time reducing the aging of the filter layer and extending its service life.
[0046] When the drive assembly 32 rotates, the heat dissipation assembly 33 and the drive assembly 32 share a drive source, so the heat dissipation assembly 33 will be turned on synchronously. Due to the rotation of the second bevel gear 32-5 in the drive assembly 32, the third bevel gear 33-2 meshing with it will also rotate synchronously. The third bevel gear 33-2 will drive the transmission shaft 33-1 and the fan blades 33-3 to rotate. When the fan blades 33-3 rotate, they will introduce wind into the filter frame 31-1 through the heat dissipation vents 33-4. The heat dissipation vents 33-4 are tilted toward the low-energy gamma ray filter layer 31-2 and the high-energy gamma ray filter layer 31-3. This tilted opening helps the wind entering the heat dissipation vents 33-4 flow along the low-energy gamma ray filter layer 31-2 and the high-energy gamma ray filter layer 31-3, thereby removing heat. The tilted setting of the heat dissipation vents 33-4 allows the wind to contact the filter layer more effectively, thereby improving the heat dissipation effect. In addition, the heat dissipation vents 33-4 are combined with the rotation of the filter layer to further enhance the heat dissipation effect. During the rotation of the low-energy gamma ray filter layer 31-2 and the high-energy gamma ray filter layer 31-3, the wind entering through the heat dissipation vents 33-4 will contact different surfaces of the low-energy gamma ray filter layer 31-2 and the high-energy gamma ray filter layer 31-3, ensuring that the heat from the low-energy gamma ray filter layer 31-2 and the high-energy gamma ray filter layer 31-3 is completely removed. This design not only improves heat dissipation efficiency but also ensures the stability and reliability of the filter layer during long-term operation. The combination of the multiple heat dissipation vents 33-4 of the heat dissipation assembly 33 and the drive assembly 32 achieves dynamic heat dissipation of the filter layer.
