DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0017] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be described clearly and completely below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some of the embodiments of the present application, but not all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present application.

[0018] Please refer to Figures 1-7 The present application provides a technical solution: a coal seam rapid drilling device, comprising a gas guide carrier 100, the gas guide carrier 100 is internally fixedly connected with a bearing one 101, the gas guide carrier 100 is internally provided with an import hole 102, a plurality of extension mechanisms 200, adjacent extension mechanisms 200 are connected through axial screwing, the extension mechanism 200 comprises one extension carrier 201 fixedly connected with the inner ring of the bearing one 101, a cooling mechanism 300, comprising a guide pipe 301 fixedly connected inside the import hole 102, a drilling mechanism 400, arranged at the end of the extension carrier 201 in the drilling direction, a plurality of closing mechanisms 500, respectively arranged at the screwing connection between each two adjacent extension carriers 201.

[0019] In use, the air guide carrier 100 is hollow inside and not connected to the hollow cavity inside the extension carrier 201, only connected to 102 and the delivery hole 204, the air guide carrier 100 has the same axis as the extension carrier 201 and is connected, which is convenient for delivering water, compressed air, drilling fluid and other media to the drilling mechanism 400, and injecting high-pressure fluid / gas from the inside of the extension carrier 201 into the borehole to carry the cuttings out of the annulus between the outer wall of the drilling mechanism 400 and the hole wall.

[0020] The extension carrier 201 is provided with a threaded groove one 202 at one end, and a threaded groove two 203 at the other end, and a plurality of delivery holes 204 are equidistantly arranged inside the extension carrier 201 with the extension carrier 201 as the axis.

[0021] In use, referring to Figure 4 , remove the threaded groove two 203 of the extension carrier 201 in the necessary drilling direction and threadedly connect it with the drilling mechanism 400, and the rest of the extension carrier 201 is connected through the threaded groove one 202 and the threaded groove two 203, which is used to extend the drilling depth, and attention should be paid to that the threaded groove one 202 and the threaded groove two 203 cannot affect the working state of the drilling mechanism 400 when they are connected, and it is ensured that the delivery holes 204 on each extension carrier 201 are connected to each other inside after installation, and can deliver liquid nitrogen.

[0022] In the working state of each two adjacent extension carriers 201, the delivery holes 204 arranged are aligned with each other and connected to each other.

[0023] The end of the guide pipe 301 is fixedly connected with a storage tank 302, the storage tank 302 stores liquid nitrogen inside, the storage tank 302 is fixedly connected with a liquid nitrogen control valve inside, and the storage tank 302 is fixedly connected with a liquid nitrogen supply valve inside.

[0024] In use, referring to Figure 7 , the liquid nitrogen control valve and the liquid nitrogen supply valve in the storage tank 302 are used to control the delivery of liquid nitrogen inside the drilling mechanism 400 and the extension carrier 201, to prevent the reverse flow of liquid nitrogen caused by excessive pressure.

[0025] The drilling mechanism 400 comprises a drill bit 401 threadedly connected to the end of the extension carrier 201 in the drilling direction, a plurality of groups of outward holes 402 are equidistantly arranged on the surface of the drill bit 401, and a plurality of passage holes 403 are equidistantly arranged inside the drill bit 401.

[0026] In use, the drill bit 401 advances towards the drilling area. Liquid nitrogen is transported from the passage hole 403 through the outer hole 402, and then continuously pumped from the outer hole 402 to the working area. Since the drill bit 401 is in high-speed operation, the outer hole 403 first directly and efficiently cools the inside of it. As the drill bit 401 rotates, the liquid nitrogen is further thrown out and covers the drilling working surface. This design forms a gradient cooling field centered on the drill bit 401. The closer the area to the drill bit, the higher the cooling intensity. The farther the area, the weaker the cooling effect. The liquid nitrogen also cools the extension carrier 201 through the inside of the delivery hole 204, reducing the waste of liquid nitrogen, and also accurately delivering liquid nitrogen to the working area. The introduction of liquid nitrogen can effectively improve the pore and micro-crack structure of coal, and improve its permeability. Based on its low-temperature freezing and phase change expansion effect, liquid nitrogen is sent into the borehole during drilling. The drill bit 401 continuously drills down, accompanied by the outer hole 402 sending out liquid nitrogen, which deteriorates the strength of the coal body, damages the coal body structure, weakens its mechanical properties, and makes the coal body more easily broken. At the same time, the extremely low temperature and rapid gasification characteristics of liquid nitrogen are used to efficiently absorb drilling heat, significantly reduce the temperature of the drill bit 401, and prolong its service life.

[0027] In the working state of the drill bit 401, the passage hole 403 and the delivery hole 204 on the extension carrier 201 are in fluid communication, and the passage hole 403 and the outer hole 402 are in communication with each other.

[0028] The sealing mechanism 500 includes a bearing 503 fixedly connected between every two extension carriers 201, an annular carrier 501 fixedly connected to the outer ring of the bearing 503, an arc-shaped hole provided in the inside of the annular carrier 501, a ring-shaped air bag 502 provided in the arc-shaped hole, and a gas delivery pipe 504 fixedly connected to the surface of the annular carrier 501 and close to the ring-shaped air bag 502.

[0029] The gas delivery pipe 504 is in communication with the inside of each ring-shaped air bag 502, and an electrically controlled regulating valve is arranged on the side of the gas delivery pipe 504 close to the ring-shaped air bag 502.

[0030] In the working state of each ring-shaped air bag 502, it is controlled to expand by the gas delivery pipe 504, deforms in the arc-shaped hole, and tightly fits in the arc-shaped hole.

[0031] Working principle: In the preparation stage, the positive pressure gas is introduced into the gas delivery pipe 504, and the driving device is connected to the surface of the extended carrier 201, so that the drilling mechanism 400 can perform drilling work. If the length is not enough, multiple extended carriers 201 can be connected by threads to meet the length requirement of drilling. The drill bit 401 of the drilling mechanism 400 starts to work and drills towards the target area. At this time, the cooling mechanism 300 starts to work. The storage tank 302 of the cooling mechanism 300 delivers liquid nitrogen to the inside of the guide pipe 301, and then to the inside of the guide hole 102 through the guide pipe 301. The cavity in the gas delivery carrier 100 delivers the liquid nitrogen to the inside of each delivery hole 204 on the extended carrier 201. The delivery hole 204 guides the liquid nitrogen inside and rotates by itself. While cooling with liquid nitrogen, the liquid nitrogen is sent into the corresponding channel hole 403 through the delivery hole 204, and then discharged from the outer hole 402 through the rotation of the drill bit 401. While cooling the drill bit 401, the inside of the hole wall is continuously cooled. When one of the extended carriers 201 drills into the hole wall, the ring-shaped carrier 501 enters the hole wall at the same time as the extended carrier 201 deepens into the hole. At this time, the electric regulating valve inside the gas delivery pipe 504 in the hole wall first opens, and the gas delivery pipe 504 delivers gas to the inside of the annular air bag 502 on the ring-shaped carrier 501, so that the annular air bag 502 expands. When another extended carrier 201 enters the hole wall, the above operation is repeated to expand another annular air bag 502. A relatively sealed interval is formed inside the hole wall. At the same time, the hollow part of the extended carrier 201 is filled with high-pressure fluid / gas under the existing technology. Each interval will generate a relatively high-pressure interval through the expansion of the annular air bag 502, forming a local high-pressure area. When the annular air bag 502 inside the gas delivery pipe 504 is discharged after reaching a certain degree, the accumulated potential energy generates a transient high-speed jet flow when passing through the arc-shaped hole, and the high-pressure interval is released. The dust inside the hole can be effectively and quickly discharged, overcoming the dust electrostatic adsorption force and surface tension, and making the hardened dust re-fluidized. By periodically inflating and deflating the annular air bag 502, the stripping efficiency is effectively improved compared with continuous airflow, and the probability of sticking is reduced. The above operation is completed.
