The rollers can rotate relative to the guide rail, so that the body can reciprocate in the length direction of the guide rail. By providing the rollers, the convenience of the first material transporting assembly moving on the guide rail can be improved, the friction between the first material transporting assembly and the guide rail can be reduced, and the phenomenon of jamming when the first material transporting assembly moves on the guide rail can be avoided.

The first support member 104 is disposed on the base 102; one end of the guide rail 106 is inserted into the first support member, and the other end of the guide rail 106 extends toward the first side of the first support member 104; the first material handling assembly 108 is disposed on the guide rail 106 and is capable of moving relative to the guide rail 106 and can transport the pipeline 200 located on the guide rail 106 to a first position; the second material handling assembly 116 is disposed on the base 102 and is located on the second side of the first support member 104; the transfer assembly 122 is disposed on the first support member 104 and can transfer the pipeline 200 transported by the first material handling assembly 108 to the first position to the second material handling assembly 116.

[0043] In this embodiment, the material handling assembly 100 is used to transport the pipeline 200, so that the material handling assembly 100 can perform a pipe arranging operation, and thus the pipeline 200 stacked near the guide rail 106 can be transported to the position of the wellhead for pipe arranging operation. The material handling assembly 100 includes a base 102, a first support member 104, a guide rail 106, a first material handling assembly 108, a second material handling assembly 116, and a transfer assembly 122. The first support member 104 is disposed on the base 102 to achieve the installation and fixation of the first support member 104. One end of the guide rail 106 is inserted into the first support member 104, and the other end of the guide rail 106 extends toward the first side of the first support member 104 to achieve the installation and fixation of the guide rail 106, so as to facilitate stacking a plurality of pipelines 200 to be transported on the guide rail 106, and further facilitate the material handling assembly 100 to transfer the guide rail 106, so that the pipeline 200 can be quickly moved to the position of the wellhead.

The transfer assembly 122 is disposed on the first support member 104 to achieve the installation and fixation of the first support member 104. As Figure 6 and Figure 7 shown,Figure 6 Sixth structural schematic diagram of the material transporting assembly according to an embodiment of the present invention; Figure 7 Seventh structural schematic diagram of the material transporting assembly according to an embodiment of the present invention. The transfer assembly 122 can transfer the pipeline 200 of the first material transporting assembly 108 transported to the first position to the second material transporting assembly 116, so that the transfer assembly 122 can transfer the pipeline 200 transported by the first material transporting assembly 108 to the second material transporting assembly 116, so that the second material transporting assembly 116 can receive the pipeline 200 transferred by the transfer assembly 122, in order to transport the received pipeline 200 to the position of the wellhead. By providing the first material transporting assembly 108, the second material transporting assembly 116 and the transfer assembly 122, when the pipeline 200 is transferred, the first material transporting assembly 108 can move on the guide rail 106, grab the pipeline 200 on the guide rail 106 and transport it to the first position, so that it is convenient for the transfer assembly 122 to grab the pipeline 200 at the first position and transfer the pipeline 200 from one side of the first support member 104 to the second material transporting assembly 116 on the other side of the support portion, so that the second material transporting assembly 116 can transport the pipeline 200 to the position of the wellhead for pipe repair operation, thereby transporting the stacked pipeline 200 to the position of the wellhead, realizing the automatic transportation of the pipeline 200. The structure of the material transporting assembly 100 is simple, and the movement and installation are more convenient and fast, thereby reducing the manual arrangement of pipe rods by construction workers, and further reducing the labor intensity of employees and reducing the operation safety risk.

By providing the lifting assembly 130, the lifting assembly 130 can transport the first material transporting assembly 108 to the guide rails 106 at different heights. Then, after the transportation of the pipelines 200 on the upper layer of the guide rails 106 is completed, the pipelines 200 on the lower layer of the guide rails 106 can be transported.

[0054] Specifically, the lifting assembly 130 is a lift, and the lifting assembly 130 can perform the actions of lifting and lowering the first material transporting assembly 108, thereby transporting the first material transporting assembly 108 to the guide rails 106 at different heights.

[0055] This embodiment provides a material transporting assembly 100. In addition to the technical features of the above embodiments, this embodiment further includes the following technical features.

[0058] Specifically, the first clamping portion 114 is a holding claw that can lift the pipeline 200 , thereby facilitating the transportation of the pipeline 200 .

[0059] Specifically, there are two rollers 112 . By providing two rollers 112 , the smoothness of the movement of the first material transporting component 108 can be improved.

[0060] Specifically, there are two first material transporting assemblies 108, one of the two first material transporting assemblies 108 is located on one guide rail 106, and the other of the two first material transporting assemblies 108 is located on another guide rail 106. The two first material transporting assemblies 108 are axially symmetrically arranged. When adapting to pipe rows of different heights, the two first material transporting assemblies 108 located at the bottom first lift them to a certain height, then lay the oil pipe guide rail 106, and finally the lifting assembly 130 descends to drive the first material transporting assemblies 108 to fall onto the oil pipe guide rail 106. Similarly, when the pipeline 200 is transferred, after the current layer of the pipe row is fully transferred, the first material transporting assemblies 108 can be used to complete the layer reduction operation of the pipe row, and the pipeline 200 of the lower layer can be arranged and transferred.

[0061] Specifically, the lifting assembly 130 has multiple gears, so that the first material conveying assembly 108 can convey multi-layer pipelines 200. After the pipelines 200 on one layer are conveyed, the lifting assembly 130 is controlled to drive the first material conveying assembly 108 to move, so that the first material conveying assembly 108 descends to the guide rail 106 on the next layer to convey the pipelines 200, thereby realizing the automatic conveying of the multi-layer guide rails 106.

[0062] Specifically, the lifting assembly 130 has four gears, so that the first material conveying assembly 108 can convey the pipelines 200 on four layers.

[0063] This embodiment provides a material conveying assembly 100. In addition to the technical features of the above embodiments, this embodiment further includes the following technical features.

[0064] As Figure 4 and Figure 6 shown, the lifting assembly 130 includes a second support member 132 and a support arm 134. The second support member 132 is disposed on the base 102; one end of the support arm 134 abuts against the first material conveying assembly 108, and one end of the support arm 134 is disposed on the second support member 132 and can move along the length direction of the second support member 132.

[0065] In this embodiment, the lifting assembly 130 includes a second support member 132 and a support arm 134. The second support member 132 is disposed on the base 102 to realize the installation and fixation of the second support member 132. One end of the support arm 134 abuts against the first material conveying assembly 108, and one end of the support arm 134 is located below the first material conveying assembly 108. The other end of the support arm 134 is disposed on the second support member 132 and can move along the length direction of the second support member 132 to realize the installation of the support arm 134, so that the support arm 134 can drive the first material conveying assembly 108 to move, and the first material conveying assembly 108 can be conveyed to the guide rails 106 at different heights. Furthermore, after the pipelines 200 on the upper layer of the guide rail 106 are transported, the pipelines 200 on the lower layer of the guide rail 106 can be transported.

[0066] Specifically, the support arm 134 can move up and down to complete the lifting and lowering actions of the first material conveying assembly 108. The support arm 134 is located directly below the standby position of the first material conveying assembly 108, and the standby position is the side of the first material conveying assembly 108 close to the base 102. When the support arm 134 rises, it can vertically lift the first material conveying assembly 108. The main function of the lifting assembly 130 is to lift the first material conveying assembly 108 to a certain height to facilitate the multi-layer stacking or layer reduction operation of the pipe row, and then lower the first material conveying assembly 108 to the new layer of oil pipe guide rail 106 to work, thereby improving the conveying efficiency of the pipelines 200.

[0067] This embodiment provides a material transporting assembly 100. In addition to the technical features of the above embodiments, this embodiment further includes the following technical features.

[0068] As Figure 4 and Figure 6 shown, the transfer assembly 122 includes a third support member 124, a robotic arm 126, and a second clamping portion 128. One end of the third support member 124 is disposed on the base 102; one end of the robotic arm 126 is rotatably connected to the other end of the third support member 124; one end of the second clamping portion 128 is rotatably connected to the other end of the robotic arm 126, and the other end of the second clamping portion 128 is capable of clamping the pipeline 200.

[0069] In this embodiment, the transfer assembly 122 includes a third support member 124, a robotic arm 126, and a second clamping portion 128. One end of the third support member 124 is disposed on the base 102 to achieve the installation and fixation of the third support member 124. One end of the robotic arm 126 is rotatably connected to the other end of the third support member 124 to achieve the installation and fixation of the robotic arm 126. One end of the second clamping portion 128 is rotatably connected to the other end of the robotic arm 126 to achieve the installation of the second clamping portion 128. The other end of the second clamping portion 128 is capable of clamping the pipeline 200. Furthermore, the second clamping portion 128 can grab the pipeline 200 at the first position of the first material transporting assembly 108. Since the second clamping portion 128 and the robotic arm 126 are rotatably connected, after grabbing the pipeline 200, the angle and position of the pipeline 200 can be changed for transfer. After grabbing the pipeline 200, the robotic arm 126 rotates relative to the third support member 124, so that the pipeline 200 can be transferred from one side of the first support member 104 to the second material transporting assembly 116 on the other side of the first support member 104 to achieve the transfer of the pipeline 200. By using the method of transferring the pipeline 200 with the second clamping portion 128 and the robotic arm 126, the convenience of transferring the pipeline 200 can be improved, and the efficiency of transferring the pipeline 200 can be enhanced.

[0070] Specifically, the second clamping portion 128 is a mechanical claw. The third support member 124 is fixed on the base 102. The robotic arm 126 can perform a combined lifting and rotating motion along the third support member 124. The second clamping portion 128 has the function of grabbing the pipeline 200 and can rotate 180° around the rotating shaft on the robotic arm 126. The combined rotating structure formed by the second clamping portion 128 and the robotic arm 126 can enable the grabbed pipeline 200 to complete a reciprocating movement between directly above the first material transporting assembly 108 and directly above the second material transporting assembly 116. After combining with the lifting motion of the robotic arm 126, the pipe string handover work from the first material transporting assembly 108 to the second material transporting assembly 116 can be achieved.

[0071] Specifically, the robotic arm 126 can be a small arm that can be flipped 180° relative to the third support member 124. The third support member 124 includes a liftable pedestal that can drive the robotic arm 126 to move, so that the pedestal can drive the robotic arm 126 to perform lifting operations, thereby improving the convenience and transfer efficiency of the transfer assembly 122 for transferring the pipeline 200. The mechanical gripper completes the grasping of the pipeline 200, and the robotic arm 126 can complete the transfer of the pipeline 200 from one side of the first feeding assembly 108 to one side of the second feeding assembly 116 by means of a flipping action. The pedestal is liftable and can complete the lifting and lowering actions of the pipeline 200.

[0072] This embodiment provides a feeding assembly 100. In addition to the technical features of the above embodiments, this embodiment further includes the following technical features.

[0073] The number of the second clamping portions 128 is two, and the distance between the two second clamping portions 128 is greater than or equal to 4.3 meters and less than or equal to 5 meters.

[0074] In this embodiment, the number of the second clamping portions 128 is set to two, which is convenient for clamping the pipeline 200 and improving the stability of clamping the pipeline 200, thus facilitating the transfer of the pipeline 200. The distance between the two second clamping portions 128 is set to be greater than or equal to 4.3 meters and less than or equal to 5 meters, so as to realize the adjustment of the distance between the two second clamping portions 128. Since the pipeline 200 is light in weight and large in flexibility, if the distance between the two second clamping portions 128 is too small or too large, the pipeline 200 will bend. By setting the distance between the two second clamping portions 128 to be between 4.3 meters and 5 meters, this distance is the optimal grasping distance for the pipeline 200, and too small or too large a distance will cause the pipeline 200 to bend excessively.

[0075] Specifically, the distance between the two second clamping portions 128 is equal to 4.3 meters.

[0076] Specifically, the distance between the two second clamping portions 128 is equal to 5 meters.

[0077] Specifically, the distance between the two second clamping portions 128 is equal to 4.6 meters.

[0078] This embodiment provides a feeding assembly 100. In addition to the technical features of the above embodiments, this embodiment further includes the following technical features.

[0079] Such as Figure 4 and Figure 6As shown, the second material transporting component 116 includes a second body 118 and a carrying part 120. The second body 118 is detachably connected to the base 102; the carrying part 120 is arranged on the second body 118, and the carrying part 120 can receive the pipeline 200 transported by the transfer component 122.

[0080] In this embodiment, the second material transporting component 116 includes a second body 118 and a carrying part 120. The second body 118 is detachably connected to the base 102 to realize the installation and fixation of the second body 118. The carrying part 120 is arranged on the second body 118 to realize the installation of the carrying part 120. The carrying part 120 can receive the pipeline 200 transported by the transfer component 122. After the transfer component 122 transports the pipeline 200 to the carrying part 120, the carrying part 120 can receive the pipeline 200, so that the carrying part 120 can transport the pipeline 200 to the position of the wellhead. By using the method of transporting the pipeline 200 to the wellhead by the carrying part 120, the carrying part 120 can adjust the position and angle of the pipeline 200, and complete the lifting, forward pushing and tilting actions of the pipeline 200 from a lower horizontal position to the wellhead, so as to facilitate the pipeline 200 to meet the usage requirements at the wellhead position.

[0081] Specifically, the material transporting component 100 can realize the bilateral conveying and arranging of the pipelines 200. The second material transporting component 116 and the base 102 are of a quick-release connection. When the material transporting component 100 needs to match the pipe row on the other side, the second material transporting component 116 can be disconnected from the base 102, then the base 102 is turned around, and the second material transporting component 116 is turned around, that is, the base 102 and the second material transporting component 116 are rotated 180 degrees. Finally, the second material transporting component 116 is connected to the base 102, and the matching adjustment can be completed.

[0082] This embodiment provides a material transporting component 100. In addition to the technical features of the above embodiments, this embodiment further includes the following technical features.

[0083] As Figure 2 and Figure 3 shown, the material transporting component 100 further includes a drag chain 138. One end of the drag chain 138 is connected to the first body 110, and the other end of the drag chain 138 is arranged on the lifting component 130 and can drive the first body 110 to reciprocate on the guide rail 106.

[0084] In this embodiment, the material conveying assembly 100 further includes a drag chain 138. One end of the drag chain 138 is connected to the first body 110 and is located on the side away from the first clamping portion 114. The other end of the drag chain 138 is disposed on the lifting assembly 130 to achieve the installation and fixation of the drag chain 138. The drag chain 138 can drive the first body 110 to reciprocate on the guide rail 106, so that the drag chain 138 can be used to transmit power to the power mechanism on the first body 110 and control signals, so as to facilitate the control of the operation of the first material conveying assembly 108.

[0085] Specifically, the drag chain 138 is a foldable drag chain 138. When the first body 110 moves away from the base 102 on the guide rail 106, the drag chain 138 gradually unfolds from the folded state; when the first body 110 moves closer to the base 102 on the guide rail 106, the drag chain 138 gradually folds from the unfolded state, so that the drag chain 138 will not affect the movement of the first material conveying assembly 108 while transmitting control signals to the first material conveying assembly 108.

[0086] This embodiment provides a material conveying assembly 100. In addition to the technical features of the above embodiments, this embodiment further includes the following technical features.

[0087] As Figure 1 shown, a first sewage collection tank 146 is provided on the side of the base 102 facing the transfer assembly 122; a second sewage collection tank 148 is provided at one end of the base 102 along the length direction; a third sewage collection tank 150 is provided at the other end of the base 102 along the length direction; the material conveying assembly 100 further includes a sewage collection pipe. The sewage collection pipe is disposed on the base 102. One end of the sewage collection pipe is communicated with the first sewage collection tank 146, the second sewage collection tank 148, and the third sewage collection tank 150, and the other end of the sewage collection pipe is located outside the base 102.

[0088] In this embodiment, a first sewage collection tank 146 is provided on one side of the base 102 facing the transfer assembly 122 to realize the arrangement of the first sewage collection tank 146. One end of the base 102 in the length direction is provided with a second sewage collection tank 148; the other end of the base 102 in the length direction is provided with a third sewage collection tank 150, so that sewage collection tanks are provided at both ends of the base 102 in the length direction. Furthermore, the first sewage collection tank 146, the second sewage collection tank 148, and the third sewage collection tank 150 can collect the oil stains dropped during the transfer of the pipeline 200. The material transfer assembly 100 further includes a sewage collection pipe, and the sewage collection pipe is arranged on the base 102 to realize the installation of the sewage collection pipe. One end of the sewage collection pipe is communicated with the first sewage collection tank 146, the second sewage collection tank 148, and the third sewage collection tank 150, and the other end of the sewage collection pipe is located outside the base 102, so that the sewage collection pipe can discharge the oil stains collected by the first sewage collection tank 146, the second sewage collection tank 148, and the third sewage collection tank 150, preventing the oil stains from dropping or flowing onto the ground, and thus achieving the purpose of cleanliness and environmental protection.

[0089] Specifically, the first sewage collection tank 146 is a closed sewage collection tank, and the second sewage collection tank 148 and the third sewage collection tank 150 are expandable folding extended sewage collection tanks provided at both ends of the base 102 in the length direction. When used in combination with the sewage collection pipe arrangement, it is possible to prevent oil stains from falling to the ground without laying plastic films on site.

[0090] This embodiment provides a material transfer assembly 100. In addition to the technical features of the above embodiment, this embodiment further includes the following technical features.

[0091] As Figure 2 and Figure 3 shown, the material transfer assembly 100 further includes a first limiting member 144. The first limiting member 144 is located at one end of the guide rail 106 away from the base 102, and the other end of the guide rail 106 is inserted into the first limiting member 144.

[0092] In this embodiment, the material transfer assembly 100 further includes a first limiting member 144. The first limiting member 144 is located at one end of the guide rail 106 away from the base 102 to realize the installation and fixation of the first limiting member 144. The other end of the guide rail 106 is inserted into the first limiting member 144 to realize the installation and fixation of the other end of the guide rail 106. By providing the first limiting member 144 to fix the guide rail 106, the first limiting member 144 can control the spacing of the guide rail 106, making the movement of the first material transfer assembly 108 on the guide rail 106 more stable.

[0093] Specifically, there are two first material transporting assemblies 108, and the two first material transporting assemblies 108 are arranged on two guide rails 106. Therefore, the two first material transporting assemblies 108 run on the guide rails 106 horizontally arranged on the tube row, which has certain requirements on the parallelism of the rails. Therefore, two first supporting components 104 for controlling the distance between the rails are provided as limiting structures on the base 102. At the same time, the first limiting component 144 is used to limit the distance between the rails at the end of the rail away from the base 102.

[0094] Specifically, the base 102 is a steel structure base, which can improve the structural strength and stability of the base, and an electrical box, a valve box, and a hydraulic power station are integrated on the base. The base is used to install multiple sub-equipment such as the first material transport component 108, the second material transport component 116, the transfer component 122, and the lifting component 130, to provide power and control for the material transport component 100, and a sewage collecting tank and a sewage collecting pipe are arranged on the base to collect sewage and dirt.

[0095] Specifically, the base 102 is integrated with a power station and an electric control system to provide power and control for various devices.

[0096] Specifically, the working process of the material transport assembly 100 in the present application is as follows: the first clamping portion 114 is a trustee claw, the second clamping portion 128 is a mechanical gripper, and the first position is a standby position.

[0097] The material transport assembly 100 is placed at a certain distance from the center line of the wellhead, and the pipe delivery direction of the second material transport assembly 116 is aligned with the wellhead. The pipe row and the pipe arrangement device are aligned and placed side by side. First, the support arm 134 drives the first material transport assembly 108 to rise, and then the pipe row cushion pipe and the oil pipe guide rail 106 are placed on the pipe row. The end of the oil pipe guide rail 106 away from the base 102 uses the gauge tooling, that is, the first limit component 144 to do positioning restriction. Finally, the support arm 134 drives the first material transport assembly 108 to fall, so that the first material transport assembly 108 contacts the oil pipe guide rail 106.

[0098] In the first step of the pipe rod lowering operation, the first material transport component 108 moves toward the far end along the oil pipe guide rail 106 and automatically searches for the pipeline 200. After moving to the vicinity of the pipeline 200, the pipe clamping claw lifts the pipeline 200.

[0099] In the second step of the pipe rod lowering operation, the first material transport component 108 moves along the oil pipe guide rail 106 to the standby position, and after dragging the pipeline 200 to the bottom of the mechanical gripper, the mechanical gripper moves downward and grabs the pipeline 200 .

[0100] In the third step of the pipe rod lowering operation, the mechanical gripper and the mechanical arm 126 grab the pipeline 200 to the top of the second material transport component 116 through a combination of lifting and rotating actions.

[0101] In the 4th step of the operation of lowering the pipe string, the mechanical gripper and the robotic arm 126 are reset to the standby position. The second pipe transporting assembly 116 lifts the pipeline 200 to the wellhead. Then, the wellhead operation equipment completes the operation of lowering the pipeline 200 into the well. Thus, a cycle of the operation of lowering the pipe string is completed.

[0102] The operation of pulling out the pipe string can be regarded as the reverse process of the operation of lowering the pipe string, which will not be elaborated here.
