Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of drill rod coating thermal insulation testing, in particular to a transmission mechanism for an oil pumping unit. Background Art

[0002] Oil production in oil fields can be categorized into deep-well and shallow-well operations based on well depth. Deep-well production typically utilizes submersible electric pumps, but these pumps often have short operating cycles and are difficult to operate, severely impacting efficiency and increasing costs. Shallow-well production primarily utilizes beam pumping units, which offer advantages such as long life and high reliability. Specifically, the unit is installed on the ground and connected to a sucker rod, which is then connected to a pump. Oil is then extracted by activating the pump. However, in the later stages of development, as production declines, pumping units gradually exhibit low oil recovery efficiency and high motor energy consumption, resulting in significant waste of resources and energy.

[0003] When using a pumping unit for shallow well oil production, the rod string is easily broken due to its large starting torque and heavy load at the suspension point. When using a pumping unit for deep well oil production, the load at the suspension point will increase significantly, which can easily cause the rod string to break.

[0004] In summary, the existing transmission mechanism for oil pumping units has the disadvantages of low efficiency, high energy consumption, large starting torque, and easy breakage of the rod column. Summary of the Invention

Optionally, the drive mechanism 1 can be a drive motor having an output shaft. The transmission mechanism 2 includes: a first synchronous pulley 21, a transmission belt 22, and a second synchronous pulley 23. The first synchronous pulley 21 is fixedly mounted on the output shaft of the drive mechanism 1 and connected to the second synchronous pulley 23 via the transmission belt 22. Optionally, the transmission belt 22 can be a belt. The output shaft of the drive mechanism 1 can rotate to drive the first synchronous pulley 21, and the first synchronous pulley 21 can then rotate the second synchronous pulley 23 via the transmission belt 22. The transmission mechanism 2 also includes a reducer 24, a gear 25, an annular rack 26 and a rack frame 4. The reducer 24 has an input shaft, an output shaft and a plurality of reducer gears meshing with the input shaft and the output shaft. The input shaft of the reducer 24 can drive the output shaft of the reducer 24 to rotate through the reducer gear. The second synchronous pulley 23 is fixed on the input shaft of the reducer 24, the gear 25 is fixed on the output shaft of the reducer 24 and meshes with the rack 26, and the rack 26 is fixedly connected to the rack frame 4.

[0030] The rotation of the second synchronous pulley 23 can drive the input shaft of the reducer 24 to rotate, and the input shaft of the reducer 24 can then drive the output shaft of the reducer 24 to rotate, and the output shaft of the reducer 24 can then drive the gear 25 to rotate, and the gear 25 can then drive the rack 26 to move back and forth in the vertical direction.

[0031] The present invention includes a drive mechanism 1 and a transmission mechanism 2 connected to the output shaft of the drive mechanism 1, and the transmission mechanism 2 includes a first synchronous pulley 21, a transmission belt 22 and a second synchronous pulley 23. The first synchronous pulley 21 is fixed on the output shaft of the drive mechanism 1 and connected to the second synchronous pulley 23 through the transmission belt 22. The transmission mechanism 2 also includes a reducer 24, a gear 25, a rack 26 and a rack frame 4. The second synchronous pulley 23 is fixed on the input shaft of the reducer 24, and the gear 25 is fixed on the output shaft of the reducer 24 and meshes with the rack 26, and can drive the rack 26 to move in the vertical direction. The rack 26 is fixedly connected to the rack frame 4, so that the rotational motion of the output shaft of the drive mechanism 1 can be converted into the up and down reciprocating motion of the rack frame 4 through the transmission mechanism 2. During the oil production process, the gear 25 can be engaged with the rack 26 to reduce the running speed of the rack 26 and the rack frame 4, thereby increasing their torque, so that the transmission mechanism of the pumping unit can achieve high load and low stroke operation, thereby improving the production efficiency.

[0032] In one or more embodiments, the rack 26 of the present invention is configured in an elongated ring shape. Specifically, the rack 26 includes two parallel straight rack portions and two semicircular rack portions connecting the ends of the straight rack portions. In this embodiment, the drive mechanism 1 can use a unidirectional motor.

[0033] In the present invention, the rack 26 is configured in an elongated ring shape, so that the gear 25 can drive the rack 26 to reciprocate in the vertical direction, thereby driving the rack frame 4 to reciprocate in the vertical direction.

[0034] In one or more embodiments, the driving mechanism 1 adopts a bidirectional motor.

[0035] The present invention adopts a bidirectional motor through the drive mechanism 1, and can change the direction of the output shaft of the drive mechanism 1 so that the gear 25 can drive the rack 26 to reciprocate in the vertical direction, thereby driving the rack frame 4 to reciprocate in the vertical direction.

[0036] In one or more embodiments, there is an intermediate panel between the two parallel straight rack portions of the rack 26, and a plurality of fixing pins 3 in contact with the straight rack portions are arranged at intervals on the intermediate panel surface of the rack 26.

A mounting hole is defined at the bottom of the rocker arm 7, and a corresponding mounting hole is also defined at the bottom of the outer frame of the pumping unit. The pin passes through the mounting hole to connect the rocker arm 7 to the frame. Gear 25 meshes with an elongated ring rack 26. When gear 25 is positioned on different sides of the elongated ring rack 26, the direction of movement of the rack 26 can be changed, while the direction of rotation of gear 25 remains unchanged. When gear 25 moves from the left side to the right side of the elongated ring rack 26, or vice versa, it drives the rocker arm 7 to rotate about the pin at its bottom, causing the position of gear 25 to change accordingly.

[0038] The present invention includes a rocker frame 7 mounted on the outer frame of the pumping unit. The rocker frame 7 has a pin hole at its bottom, a pin shaft disposed within the pin hole, and the rocker frame is capable of rotating about the pin shaft. As the rocker frame moves along the top and bottom semicircular ends of the long annular rack 26, the gear 25 drives the rocker frame 7 to rotate about its bottom pin shaft 8, thereby changing the direction of motion of the rack frame 4. This enables high-load, low-stroke operation of the gear-long annular rack transmission mechanism for the pumping unit.
