Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of fracturing, and more particularly to a sand control fracturing wellhead device. Background Art
[0002] In the oil field, fracturing refers to a method of forming fractures in an oil and gas reservoir by using hydraulic action during oil or gas production, also known as hydraulic fracturing. Fracturing artificially creates fractures in the formation to improve the underground flow environment of the oil, increase the oil well production, and play an important role in improving the bottom-hole flow conditions of the oil well, reducing interlayer interference, and improving the utilization status of the oil reservoir.
[0003] The Chinese invention patent with the publication number CN214944137U discloses a sand control fracturing wellhead device, which specifically relates to the technical field of fracturing. The utility model includes a first pipeline and a second pipeline, both of which are provided with valves. A filter cylinder is arranged between the first pipeline and the second pipeline, and both ends of the filter cylinder communicate with the first pipeline and the second pipeline respectively; a cover plate and a motor are arranged on the lower side wall of the filter cylinder. A roller shaft and a mounting groove matching with the roller shaft are arranged in the filter cylinder. Both ends of the roller shaft are rotatably connected to both ends of the mounting groove. A transmission belt is arranged between the motor and the roller shaft. The filter cylinder is provided with a through hole matching with the transmission belt, and the hole wall of the through hole is slidably connected with the transmission belt. The transmission belt is in rolling connection with the motor and the roller shaft. A mounting frame is arranged on the side wall of the roller shaft, and the mounting frame is slidably connected with the inner wall of the filter cylinder.

[0004] It can be seen that the current sand control wellhead device does not accurately judge the sand content, and manual opening and closing of the valve is still required for sand removal operations. This makes it impossible for operators to accurately grasp real-time filtration effect and other information during the working state. At the same time, the existing sand removal mechanism only uses gravity and other effects for sand removal work, resulting in low work efficiency. Summary of the Invention

Detailed implementation mode
[0028] The technical solutions in the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings in the present invention. In addition, the forms of the various structures described in the following implementation modes are only examples. A sand control and fracturing wellhead device related to the present invention is not limited to the various structures described in the following implementation modes. All other implementation modes obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0029] Refer to Figures 1-3 , the present invention provides a sand control and fracturing wellhead device, including a wellhead pipe 1. The wellhead pipe 1 includes a pipe body 101 and a delivery pipe 102. A filter pipe 103 is provided on the side of the pipe body 101. A filter assembly 5 is installed inside the filter pipe 103. The filter assembly 5 is meshed and connected with a buffer gear assembly 3. A locking assembly 6 is installed on the side of the buffer gear assembly 3. The locking assembly 6 rotates and fixes the buffer gear assembly 3. A sector assembly 7 is hinged to the side of the filter assembly 5. A cleaning assembly 8 is installed inside the filter assembly 5. The sector assembly 7 is hinged to the cleaning assembly 8. An automatic valve 2 is installed inside the delivery pipe 102. The rotating gears at both ends of the automatic valve 2 are meshed with a zigzag tooth plate 4. A valve block 9 is installed outside the wellhead pipe 1 at the position of the automatic valve 2;
[0030] In this embodiment, it should be specifically noted that: The valve block 9 is composed of a spring and a block. When the automatic valve 2 rotates to the closed state, the block enters the inside of the automatic valve 2 to achieve locking, forming a closed space for the sand removal process.
[0031] The main difference between this embodiment and the prior art is that in this embodiment, the displacement of the filter component is achieved by using the change in the content of filtered sand and gravel. When the sand and gravel in the device reach the threshold, the tensile force generated by the displacement automatically closes the valve and automatically cleans the internal sand and gravel, realizing the stable filtration effect. Specifically, it lies in the automatic valve 2 and the filter component 5.
[0032] The above structure is the main structure of this embodiment, which solves the problem that the filtration effect of the current filter component cannot be clearly displayed. The motor and the screw rod used for sand removal are existing structures, and the specific structures and connection methods of the motor and the screw rod are not specifically described in this embodiment.
[0033] Refer to Figure 4 , the filter component 5 includes a filter plate 501. Connecting toothed plates 502 are fixedly connected above and below the filter plate 501. The connecting toothed plates 502 are composed of two toothed plates, and the two toothed plates are meshed with the first gear 301. An inner push plate 503 is installed between the two toothed plates. The inner push plate 503 is used to push the moving push plate 604 to move laterally. Sliding grooves 504, transverse rod frames 505 and spring frames 506 are formed on the surface of the filter plate 501. The fan-shaped component 7 is installed between the two transverse rod frames 505. The accumulation of gravel causes the filter plate 501 to move to the right. When it reaches the end point, it pulls the automatic valve 2 to start moving, realizing the automatic reaction of the gravel content and controlling the change of the internal environment.
[0034] In this embodiment, it should be specifically noted that: a sliding circular groove is formed inside the filter plate 501, and the spherical slider 802 is installed inside the sliding circular groove.
[0035] Refer to Figure 5 , the buffer gear component 3 includes two first gears 301, which are fixedly connected by a gear rod 302. A second gear 303 is sleeved on the gear rod 302. A scroll spring 304 is installed inside the hollow of the second gear 303. The two ends of the scroll spring 304 are respectively installed on the second gear 303 and the gear rod 302. When the first gear 301 rotates, the rotation of the first gear 301 has a tendency to drive the second gear 303 to move. However, since the block body 601 is stuck in the tooth groove of the second gear 303, at this time, the second gear 303 will not rotate driven by the first gear 301, and correspondingly, the scroll spring 304 will store the rotational acting force.
[0036] In this embodiment, it should be specifically noted that: the scroll spring 304 prevents the buffer gear component 3 from directly transmitting the motion from the filter component 5 to the automatic valve 2. Through the buffering and acting force storage of the scroll spring 304, the automatic valve 2 reacts and moves after the filter component 5 reaches the threshold.
[0037] Refer to Figure 6, the cleaning assembly 8 includes a telescopic cleaning rod 801. Spherical sliders 802 are installed on both sides of the telescopic cleaning rod 801. The ends of the spherical sliders 802 are spheres, and the spheres are installed at the inner edge of the filter plate 501. A spherical slider 802 and a trapezoidal scraper 803 are installed on the telescopic cleaning rod 801. A square connecting frame 804 is located inside the sliding groove 504 and is equipped with a filter screen to prevent gravel from passing through the filter screen to the other side of the sliding groove 504 when moving. When the telescopic cleaning rod 801 moves up and down, the trapezoidal scraper 803 pushes the gravel on the surface of the filter plate 501 towards the middle position, facilitating the discharge of materials.
[0038] In this embodiment, it should be specifically noted that: as a scraper, the way the trapezoidal scraper 803 pushes gravel during its movement and its installation method belong to the prior art, and this application does not make specific limitations on its installation method.
[0039] Refer to Figure 7 , the fan-shaped assembly 7 includes a lower fan-shaped plate 701 and an upper fan-shaped plate 702. A plurality of hinge frames are fixedly connected to the outer sides of the lower fan-shaped plate 701 and the upper fan-shaped plate 702. A third spring 703 and a connecting main rod 704 are installed on the outer sides of the hinge frames. When the hydraulic pressure on the left side of the filter plate 501 increases due to the accumulation of gravel, the oil pushes the fan-shaped assembly 7 to increase the angle. The fan-shaped assembly 7 drives the cleaning assembly 8 to move towards the center through the connecting main rod 704, and the two spherical sliders 802 extend from the inside of the telescopic cleaning rod 801 to use the trapezoidal scraper 803 to push the gravel on the surface of the filter plate 501 towards the middle position.
[0040] In this embodiment, it should be specifically noted that: the third spring 703 has an inward pulling force on the lower fan-shaped plate 701 and the upper fan-shaped plate 702, and the pulling force overcomes the thrust of the liquid to keep it constant. When the pressure increases, the rotation angle of the lower fan-shaped plate 701 increases, and the moving distance of the cleaning assembly 8 increases.
[0041] Refer to Figure 8 , the locking assembly 6 includes a block main body 601. A moving inner rod 602 is fixedly connected to the side of the block main body 601. A second spring 603 is sleeved on the outer side of the moving inner rod 602. A moving push plate 604 is fixedly connected to the front of the block main body 601. The block main body 601 is installed on the side of the second gear 303 to prevent it from moving normally.
[0042] In this embodiment, it should be specifically noted that: as a non-preferred implementation, a displacement sensor is installed inside the block main body 601. The displacement sensor is used to collect the position information of the inner push plate 503. When the inner push plate 503 reaches the block main body 601, it controls the block main body 601 to move away from the second gear 303. When the inner push plate 503 returns to the origin, it controls the block main body 601 to approach the second gear 303 to achieve re-fixation.
[0043] Refer toFigure 9 The zigzag tooth plate 4 is zigzag-shaped. At both ends of the zigzag tooth plate 4, tooth grooves are provided at the bottom and the side respectively. The bottom tooth groove meshes with the second gear 303, and the side tooth groove meshes with the automatic valve 2. When it moves to the rightmost side under the action of the pressure of the filter plate 501, at this time, the block body 601 no longer fixes the tooth groove. The second gear 303 rotates rapidly under the action of the huge spring potential energy, driving the zigzag tooth plate 4 to move to the right. The zigzag tooth plate 4 drives the automatic valve 2 to start rotating until the automatic valve 2 completely closes the pipeline of the conveying pipe 102.
[0044] In this embodiment, it should be specifically noted that: The automatic valve 2 includes a valve plate and a rotating gear. A card slot is provided on the valve plate, and the position of the card slot corresponds to the position of the valve block 9. When the automatic valve 2 rotates to the closed state, the valve block 9 is stuck inside the card slot, keeping the inside of the device in a closed state and facilitating the stability of the sand removal state.
[0045] The working principle of the present invention:
[0046] The main problem solved by this embodiment is: Utilize the change in the content of filtered sand and gravel to achieve the displacement of the filter assembly. The pulling force generated by the displacement causes the valve to automatically close when the sand and gravel in the device reach the threshold, automatically clean the internal sand and gravel, and achieve the stability of the filtering effect, solving the problem that the filtering effect of the current filter assembly cannot be clearly displayed.
[0047] The specific steps are as follows:
[0048] The oil fluid flows from the conveying pipe 102 to the pipeline main body 101, and flows out from the pipeline main body 101 under the filtering action of the filter plate 501. As time goes by, the accumulation of gravel on the surface of the filter plate 501 causes the filtering effect to decrease. The filter plate 501 moves to the right under the pipeline pressure. Since the connecting tooth plate 502 is meshed and connected with the first gear 301, at this time, the connecting tooth plate 502 drives the first gear 301 to rotate. The rotation of the first gear 301 has a tendency to drive the second gear 303 to move, but since the block body 601 is stuck on the tooth groove of the second gear 303, at this time, the second gear 303 will not rotate driven by the first gear 301, and correspondingly, the scroll spring 304 will store the rotational acting force;
[0049] When the hydraulic pressure on the left side of the filter plate 501 increases due to the accumulation of gravel, the oil fluid pushes the sector assembly 7 to increase the angle. The sector assembly 7 drives the cleaning assembly 8 to move towards the center through the connecting main rod 704. The two spherical sliders 802 extend from the inside of the telescopic cleaning rod 801 and use the trapezoidal scraper 803 to push the gravel on the surface of the filter plate 501 towards the middle position, facilitating the discharge of materials;
[0050] When the sand content reaches the threshold, resulting in a serious reduction in the filtration effect, the filter plate 501 moves to the rightmost side under the action of pressure. At this time, the inner push plate 503 contacts the moving push plate 604 and reduces the pushing force. At this time, the main body of the clamping block 601 no longer fixes the tooth groove. The second gear 303 rotates rapidly under the action of the huge spring potential energy, driving the zigzag tooth plate 4 to move to the right. The zigzag tooth plate 4 drives the automatic valve 2 to start rotating until the automatic valve 2 completely closes the pipeline of the conveying pipe 102. At this time, the horizontal hole opened on the automatic valve 2 faces the valve clamping block 9, and the valve clamping block 9 is inwardly clamped inside the horizontal hole to realize the angle fixation of the automatic valve 2 and prevent it from moving during cleaning;
[0051] With the completion of the closing, the sand discharge hole is opened, a rotating rod and a motor are installed inside. The spiral rod drives the motor to clean the internal gravel. As the cleaning continues, the filter plate 501 gradually moves to the left, pushing the gravel out of the sand discharge hole, and at the same time returns to the initial position for easy reuse. At this time, the filtration effect is in the best state. The above is only the preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not used to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent replacements, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present invention shall be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
