Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of oilfield exploitation, in particular to a pumping rod vibration control system. Background Art

[0002] The sucker rod vibration control device is a vital technical equipment in the field of oil production. It is specially designed to deal with the vibration problem of the sucker rod during the oil production process. In oil production operations, the sucker rod is a key component connecting the surface pumping unit and the downhole oil pump. During the up and down reciprocating motion, it will be affected by a variety of complex factors, such as changes in formation pressure, differences in well fluid properties, and unbalanced equipment operation, thereby generating vibration. This vibration will not only accelerate the wear of the sucker rod itself and the components connected to it, resulting in a shortened equipment life, increased maintenance costs and downtime, but may also cause serious accidents such as rod breakage and pipe leakage, seriously affecting the normal production of the oil well and reducing oil production efficiency.

[0003] The emergence of sucker rod vibration control devices provides an effective solution to this problem. These devices typically consist of a shock-absorbing component, an intelligent monitoring system, and an adjustment mechanism. The shock-absorbing component, made of advanced materials and featuring a unique structural design, absorbs and disperses the energy generated during the sucker rod's movement, effectively reducing vibration amplitude. The intelligent monitoring system provides real-time monitoring of the sucker rod's vibration status.

[0004] There are various vibration control systems in the prior art, but they often fail to achieve a good balance between efficiency and control accuracy, and are unable to individually adjust different vibrations generated at different locations, making it impossible to adjust the vibration control to the most balanced state.

[0035] In an optional implementation of the embodiment of the present invention, Figure 8 、 Figure 9 As shown, the side panel 12 is provided with a plurality of limit buckles 16, and a plurality of adjustment plates 14 are slidably installed in the limit buckles 16. The plurality of adjustment plates 14 are fitted together, and a side bevel panel 15 is fixedly installed on the side of each adjustment plate 14, but the position of each side bevel panel 15 is different. The position of each side bevel panel 15 corresponds to the position of each limit frame 5, and the side bevel panel 15 on the outermost adjustment plate 14 is the longest, and the side bevel panel 15 on the innermost adjustment plate 14 is the shortest, so that all the side bevel panels 15 can contact the two ends of the limit frame 5.

[0037] In an optional implementation of the embodiment of the present invention, Figure 8 、 Figure 10 As shown, a plurality of stepper motors 19 are fixedly mounted on the upper end of the side panel 12. The motor shaft of each stepper motor 19 is connected to a corresponding plurality of threaded rods 18. The plurality of threaded rods 18 are rotatably mounted on the second layer of the upper end of the side panel 12. Each threaded rod 18 is also threadedly connected to the upper end of a different adjustment plate 14. A notch is provided on the upper side of each adjustment plate 14. The smaller the notch is towards the inner side, the smaller the notch is, so that each adjustment plate 14 can slide up and down without interfering with each other.

[0038] In an optional implementation of the embodiment of the present invention, Figure 1 、 Figure 11 As shown, a circular frame 20 is fixedly installed at the upper end between the two side plates 12 . The circular frame 20 is fixedly connected to the piston rod of the hydraulic cylinder 21 . The cylinder body of the hydraulic cylinder 21 is fixedly installed at the upper end of the outer tube 22 .

[0039] Working principle: When the present invention is used, firstly, the oil rod is installed. The oil rod needs to be placed in the inner tube 1. The initial position of the clamping plate 6 is at the outer wall of the inner tube 1, which will not affect the placement of the oil rod. When the oil rod is installed, the oil production work begins;

[0040] Before starting oil production, the oil rod needs to be clamped to reduce vibration. The hydraulic cylinder 21 is started, driving the fixed frame I2 to move downward, thereby driving the side plate 12 to slide downward. The central inclined panel 13 on the side plate 12 squeezes the limit frame 5 inward, so that the clamping plate 6 clamps the oil rod, and then the oil rod starts to move up and down to produce oil.

[0041] When the oil rod moves up and down, it will vibrate, and the energy of the vibration will be absorbed by the compression spring Ⅰ7. In addition, displacement laser sensors 9 are installed at positions of different heights. The displacement laser sensor 9 can identify the vibration position changes at the corresponding positions, thereby identifying the vibration amplitude. According to the data, the shock absorption strength of the position with a larger vibration amplitude will be adjusted. Specifically, when the vibration amplitude at a certain displacement laser sensor 9 position is large, the corresponding side inclined panel 15 at this position needs to be driven to squeeze the limit frame 5 again, so that the limit frame 5 moves further inward, and the compression amount of the compression spring Ⅰ7 is greater, absorbing greater vibration energy. Specifically, the adjustment plate 14 corresponding to this side inclined panel 15 moves downward under the rotation of the corresponding threaded rod 18, and the rotation of the threaded rod 18 is driven by the stepping motor 19 at the corresponding position; in this way, fixed-point monitoring and fixed-point fine-tuning can be achieved, so that the vibration of the oil rod in the well can be better alleviated.

[0042] While embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations may be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
