[0022] Step 2: Start the second motor. The output shaft of the second motor drives the first rotating rod to rotate. The first rotating rod drives the second rotating rod to rotate. The second rotating rod drives the evaporation chamber shell to rotate synchronously. The evaporation chamber shell wraps the sample body and dries the sample body.

The sub-gear drives the reciprocating screw to rotate. When the reciprocating screw rotates, the first slide slides inside the second slide groove. The first slide drives the support rod downward.

[0025] Step 5: The support rod moves downward, which will cause the weighing device to move synchronously.

At this time, the rack rod will move downward synchronously.

[0026] Step 6: Start the water pump, which will inject water into the sample body through the water pipe, so that the sample body will float out of the water tank and the water will flow out of the drain hole on the support plate.

[0027] Step 7: Calculate the porosity of the sample using the following formula:

[0028] (1) Measure and calculate the different masses of the sample body 27, the mass of the sample after drying is M1, and the mass of the sample after saturation with water is M2;

[0029] (2) The mass difference is the mass of water in the pores. The mass formula is as follows:

[0030] ;

[0031] (3) Calculation of pore volume:

[0032] ;

[0033] Where V is the pore volume, For water quality, is the density of water;

[0034] (4) Porosity calculation formula:

[0035] ;

[0036] R is the porosity, V is the pore volume, and S is the sample volume.

[0037] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0038] 1. The present invention can measure the initial mass of the sample body under the action of a weighing device, and then the sample body can be placed in a dry state under the action of a subsequent evaporation chamber shell. At this time, the mass of the dried sample body can be obtained under the action of the weighing device. Then, under the action of structures such as a rack rod, a water pump, and a support rod, the sample body can be immersed in the interior of a water tank. Then, the weight of the sample body at this time can be obtained under the action of the weighing device, and the right-side porosity inside the sample body can be calculated using a formula.

[0039] 2. This invention, through the interaction of a weight-measuring spring and a rack rod, enables mass measurement of the sample body under different conditions.

[0054] The following will clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0055] See also Figures 1 to 8 , the present invention provides a technical solution:

[0056] A reservoir porosity measurement method and device includes a workbench 1, with support legs 2 symmetrically fixedly installed on the left and right sides of the lower end surface of the workbench 1. Under the action of the support legs 2, the workbench 1 can be kept away from the ground. Secondly, a vertical L-shaped mounting plate 3 is fixedly installed at the rear edge of the upper end surface of the workbench 1. It should be noted that the top of the L-shaped mounting plate 3 is protruding forward, such as Figure 1 shown.

[0057] Furthermore, a through hole 301 of a circular structure is provided at the center of the top front end of the L-shaped mounting plate 3, extending from the upper end surface to the lower end surface. A first motor 4 is fixedly mounted symmetrically at the edge of the through hole 301 on the top of the L-shaped mounting plate 3, and a first gear 5 is fixedly mounted on the output shaft of the first motor 4. Figure 3 shown.

[0058] A first gear 5 is slidably installed inside the through hole 301, and the first gears 5 on the left and right sides are in a state of mutual meshing. Therefore, during use, the first motor 4 is started, and the output shaft of the first motor 4 rotates with the first gear 5. During the rotation, the first gear 5 can drive the rack rod 6 to slide inside the through hole 301, thereby changing the height of the subsequent rack rod 6.

[0059] An upper sealing disc 7 with a circular structure is fixedly mounted on the lower end of the rack rod 6 , and the upper sealing disc 7 can move up and down along with the movement of the rack rod 6 .

[0060] The second motor 10 is symmetrically fixedly mounted on both the left and right sides of the upper portion of the L-shaped mounting plate 3. The first rotating rod 11 is fixedly mounted on the output shaft of the second motor 10, and the second rotating rod 12 is fixedly mounted on the outer side of the end of the first rotating rod 11 away from the second motor 10. Figure 3 shown.

[0061] During use, the second motor 10 is started, and the output shaft of the second motor 10 drives the first rotating rod 11 to rotate. The first rotating rod 11 drives the second rotating rod 12 to rotate synchronously during the rotation process. The second rotating rod 12 can change from an inclined state to a horizontal straight state during the rotation process. Figure 3 shown.

[0062] An evaporation chamber shell 13 is fixedly installed on one end of the second rotating rod 12 away from the first rotating rod 11. After the second rotating rod 12 rotates to a horizontal straight state, the left and right evaporation chamber shells 13 can be tightly fitted together, so that the two evaporation chamber shells 13 can be combined into a cylindrical structure, and then the sample body 27 can be evaporated and dried in subsequent operations.

[0063] The left and right evaporation chamber shells 13 approach each other and eventually fit together to form a complete evaporation chamber. The inner walls of the evaporation chamber shells 13 are provided with a heating layer, which heats the evaporation chamber through the heating layer, allowing the oil reservoir sample in the evaporation chamber to evaporate quickly. At the same time, the outer side of the evaporation chamber shell 13 is also provided with an insulation layer, which can effectively reduce heat loss and improve heating efficiency. After the evaporation chamber shells 13 fit together to form the evaporation chamber, the upper sealing plate 7 will descend and closely contact the upper end surface of the evaporation chamber shell 13 to achieve sealing of the evaporation chamber and prevent steam leakage during the evaporation process.

[0064] A water tank 28 is fixedly mounted on the upper end surface of the workbench 1. The top of the water tank 28 is a hollow structure. In addition, a third motor 14 is provided on the lower end surface of the workbench 1. A main gear 15 is fixedly mounted on the output shaft of the third motor 14. Then, four sub-gears 16 are evenly arranged in a circular array on the outer side of the main gear 15 on the lower end surface of the workbench 1. The sub-gears 16 are all meshed with the main gear 15. Figure 8 shown.

[0065] A reciprocating screw 17 is fixedly mounted at the center of the upper end surface of the secondary gear 16, and the upper end of the reciprocating screw 17 passes through the workbench 1 and is located inside the water tank 28. Four second chutes 281 are opened on the inner circumferential surface of the water tank 28, and the reciprocating screw 17 is rotatably mounted inside the second chutes 281. Figure 6 shown.

[0066] During use, the third motor 14 is started, and the output shaft of the third motor 14 will rotate the main gear 15. The main gear 15 will rotate synchronously with the sub-gear 16 during the rotation. At this time, the sub-gear 16 can rotate synchronously with the reciprocating screw 17 during the rotation.

[0067] A first slide 18 is threadably mounted on the circumferential surface of the reciprocating screw 17 , and the first slide 18 is slidably mounted inside the second slide groove 281 . Therefore, during use, when the reciprocating screw 17 rotates, the first slide 18 can slide up and down inside the second slide groove 281 .

[0068] Then, a support rod 19 is fixedly installed at one end of the inner side of the first slide 18, and the ends of the four support rods 19 away from the first slide 18 are fixedly installed on the lower end surface of the weighing device 20, as shown in FIG. Figure 8 shown.

[0069] Therefore, during use, as the first slide 18 moves up and down, the support rod 19 can slide up and down synchronously with the weighing device 20.

[0070] A plurality of weighing springs 21 are evenly fixedly installed in a circular array on the upper end surface of the weighing device 20, and a support plate 22 is fixedly installed on the top of the weighing springs 21. Four first sliding grooves 24 are evenly opened in a circular array from the upper end to the outer circumferential surface of the support plate 22. An adjusting screw 25 is rotatably installed on the inner wall surface of the first sliding groove 24 to the outer side of the support plate 22, and a fixed arc plate 26 is threadedly installed on the circumferential surface of the adjusting screw 25. The fixed arc plate 26 is slidably installed inside the first sliding groove 24.

[0071] Among them, the weighing device 20 and the weighing spring 21 can cooperate with each other to support the support plate 22. At the same time, the weighing spring 21 has a certain elasticity and can be deformed when subjected to external force. In addition, the weighing spring 21 uses a pressure sensor spring to convert the mass of the sample body 27 into a pressure signal.

[0072] Secondly, the weighing device 20 has a built-in pressure sensor, which measures the mass of the sample body 27 in real time by sensing the pressure change of the weighing spring 21.

[0073] In addition, the elastic deformation of the weighing spring 21 combined with the high-sensitivity sensor of the weighing device 20 can achieve milligram-level precision measurement, which is superior to traditional static weighing equipment. The multiple spring rings are evenly distributed to ensure uniform force and reduce the influence of sample eccentricity on the measurement results.

[0074] The upper end surface of the support plate 22 is provided with a drain hole 23 between two adjacent first chutes 24, and then the sample body 27 is placed on the inner side of the fixed arc plate 26. Figure 7 shown.

[0075] During use, it is necessary to measure and calculate the different masses of the sample body 27, the mass of the sample after drying M1, the mass of the sample after saturation with water M2;

[0076] The mass difference is the mass of water in the pores, and the mass formula is as follows:

[0077] ;

[0078] Calculate the pore volume:

[0079] ;

[0080] Where V is the pore volume, For water quality, is the density of water;

[0081] Porosity calculation formula:

[0082] ;

[0083] R is the porosity, V is the pore volume, and S is the sample volume.

[0084] During the calculation process, the operator needs to measure the volume of the sample body 27 first, and during the operation, the surface of the sample body 27 saturated with water needs to be wiped to ensure that the surface is dry.

[0085] Step 1: Place the sample body 27 on the upper end surface of the support plate 22, rotate the adjusting screw 25, and fix the arc plate 26 to fix the sample body 27. The current mass of the sample body 27 is measured by the weighing device 20;

[0086] Step 2: Start the second motor 10. The output shaft of the second motor 10 rotates the first rotating rod 11. The first rotating rod 11 rotates the second rotating rod 12. The second rotating rod 12 rotates the evaporation chamber shell 13 synchronously. The evaporation chamber shell 13 wraps the sample body 27 and dries the sample body 27.

[0087] Step 3: The second motor 10 operates in the reverse direction, moving the evaporation chamber housing 13 away from the sample body. The first motor 4 is started, which drives the first gear 5 to rotate. The first gear 5 drives the rack rod 6 to descend. The rack rod 6 drives the lower end surface of the upper sealing plate 7 to fit the upper end surface of the sample body 27.

[0088] Step 4: Start the third motor 14. The output shaft of the third motor 14 rotates the main gear 15. The main gear 15 rotates the sub-gear 16. The sub-gear 16 rotates the reciprocating screw 17. When the reciprocating screw 17 rotates, the first slide 18 slides inside the second slide groove 281. The first slide 18 moves downward with the support rod 19.

[0089] Step 5: The support rod 19 moves downward, which in turn moves the weighing device 20, which in turn moves the weighing spring 21, which in turn moves the support plate 22, which in turn moves the sample body 27. At this time, the rack rod 6 moves downward in sync.

[0090] Step 6: Start the water pump 8, which injects water into the sample body 27 through the water pipe 9, allowing the sample body 27 to float out of the water tank 28. The water on the surface of the support plate 22 flows out of the drain hole 23. At this time, the sample body 27 is weighed by the weighing device 20.

[0091] Step 7: Calculate the porosity of the sample body 27 using the following formula:

[0092] During use, it is necessary to measure and calculate the different masses of the sample body 27, the mass of the sample after drying M1, the mass of the sample after saturation with water M2;

[0093] The mass difference is the mass of water in the pores, and the mass formula is as follows:

[0094] ;

[0095] Calculate the pore volume:

[0096] ;

[0097] Where V is the pore volume, For water quality, is the density of water;

[0098] Porosity calculation formula:

[0099] ;

[0100] R is the porosity, V is the pore volume, and S is the sample volume.

[0101] During the calculation process, the operator needs to measure the volume of the sample body 27 first, and during the operation, the surface of the sample body 27 saturated with water needs to be wiped to ensure that the surface is dry.

[0102] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention, rather than to limit it. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the above embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that they can still modify the technical solutions described in the above embodiments, or replace some or all of the technical features therein with equivalents.
