Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application belongs to the technical field of hydraulic slotting, and relates to a hydraulic slotting device with adjustable angle for complex geology. BACKGROUND

[0002] With the deepening of resource exploitation, hydraulic slotting technology is increasingly widely used in the fields of oil, natural gas and mineral exploitation. However, traditional hydraulic slotting technology is facing more and more challenges, especially in complex geological environments. The hydraulic slotting technology has instability, for example: 1) The hardness difference of different rock layers affects the penetration ability and effect of water flow during slotting. In hard rock layers, water flow is difficult to expand efficiently; while in soft rock layers, slotting is easy to over-expand, leading to excessive fragmentation and unstable crack formation. 2) The distribution of natural cracks in coal rock mass is often irregular. These cracks may guide the expansion direction of water flow during hydraulic slotting, resulting in an unexpected stable slotting path; in coal rock layers with more cracks, the effect of hydraulic slotting may be limited to the expansion of cracks, and it is difficult to form a stable slotting surface in the surrounding solid rock layers. 3) The mineral composition in different coal rock layers differs greatly, and the hardness, brittleness, electrical conductivity and other characteristics of minerals are different, which will affect the effect of hydraulic slotting, such as in coal rock layers containing high hardness minerals (such as quartz, feldspar, etc.), the cutting efficiency of water flow is low, while in coal rock layers containing soft minerals such as clay, the expansion of water flow may be excessive, leading to increased difficulty in slotting control.

[0003] In complex geological environments, the control and adjustment of the angle of hydraulic slotting are particularly important, but the traditional hydraulic slotting equipment performs poorly in this regard, and its performance in slotting effect and operation stability gradually fails to meet the actual needs of the site, mainly reflected in:

[0004] (1) In complex geological environments, the structure and physical properties of coal rock mass show great spatial heterogeneity. The hardness, crack distribution, mineral composition and porosity of coal rock layers and other physical properties may greatly reduce the efficiency and effect of slotting operation. The design of traditional hydraulic slotting equipment usually assumes that the physical properties of coal rock mass are relatively uniform, but in actual mining process, this assumption often does not hold;

[0005] (2) Under different geological conditions, the angle adjustment (especially the rotation angle and the pitch angle) of the hydraulic slotting equipment often cannot respond to the changes in the geological environment in real time. For example, the inclination angle of coal rock layers may cause the operation direction of the equipment to deviate, and the traditional hydraulic slotting equipment often cannot flexibly adjust the angle to respond to different coal rock structure and geological conditions.

[0042] In view of the problems that the existing hydraulic slotting equipment assumes that the physical properties of the coal rock mass are relatively uniform, and the angle adjustment cannot respond to the changes in the geological environment in real time, an embodiment of the present application provides an angle-adjustable hydraulic slotting equipment for complex geology, as shown in Figure 1 The angle-adjustable hydraulic slotting equipment for complex geology comprises a central control module, and a data sensing module, an intelligent decision module, a mechanical execution module and a high-pressure water module connected with the central control module respectively. The data sensing module is used to acquire geological data of the coal rock mass and state data of the equipment. The geological data comprises internal point cloud data and mineral spectral features of the coal rock mass, and the state data of the equipment comprises a current azimuth angle of the equipment, a current inclination angle of the equipment and a current angular velocity of the equipment.

[0043] The data sensing module comprises a millimeter wave radar used to acquire the internal point cloud data of the coal rock mass, a multispectral imager used to acquire the mineral spectral features, a rotary encoder used to acquire the current azimuth angle of the equipment, an inclination angle sensor used to acquire the current inclination angle of the equipment and an IMU inertial sensor used to acquire the current angular velocity of the equipment.

[0044] The millimeter wave radar judges the shape, cracks and layered structure of the coal rock mass through reflected echoes, and outputs a three-dimensional coordinate matrix, each point containing x, y, z coordinates and reflected intensity data. In the embodiment, continuous wave (CW) millimeter wave radar technology is adopted to ensure that the characteristics of the coal rock mass at different depths can be accurately captured under complex coal rock layer conditions, and millimeter wave signals with a frequency range of 30GHz to 300GHz are adopted to provide high-precision three-dimensional point cloud data.

[0045] The multispectral imager outputs a spectral curve of 400-2500nm, each spectral band providing reflectivity information of different substances on the surface of the coal rock mass, which is used to infer the type and distribution of minerals. Through the spectral reflection data, the types and physical properties (such as hardness, brittleness, etc.) of the minerals in the coal rock mass can be inferred, which helps the subsequent intelligent decision module to determine the appropriate angle of slotting.

[0046] The current azimuth of the device, i.e. the rotation state of the device around its vertical axis, is obtained by a turn encoder which senses the rotation of the device and converts the rotation angle into an electronic signal representing the current turn angle (usually the azimuth angle relative to a certain reference point) of the device.

[0047] The current inclination of the device, i.e. the rotation angle of the device around its horizontal axis, is obtained by an inclination sensor.

[0048] The current angular velocity of the device is obtained by an IMU inertial sensor, which contains a gyroscope and an accelerometer and can provide information such as the rotational dynamics, acceleration and attitude change of the device.

[0049] The intelligent decision module calculates the drilling angle according to the geological data and the state data of the device, and generates a trajectory adjustment instruction. The intelligent decision module can perform adaptive angle calculation in the face of complex geological conditions.

[0050] The intelligent decision module includes a data fusion sub-module for fusing geological data, an angle calculation sub-module for calculating angles, and a trajectory planning sub-module for generating trajectory adjustment instructions.

[0051] The data fusion sub-module uses an FPGA processor, as shown in Figure 2 The specific steps of fusing data are as follows:

[0052] SS1: Outlier points in the point cloud data inside the coal rock mass are removed, i.e. discrete noise points are removed using a radius filter (set the neighborhood radius R = 10 cm, the minimum number of neighborhood points N min = 5); then the mineral spectral features are radiometrically corrected, i.e. reflectance normalization processing is performed based on the standard whiteboard reflectivity to ensure the accuracy of the mineral reflectance data;

[0053] SS2: The processed point cloud data inside the coal rock mass and the mineral spectral features are spatially registered by ICP algorithm to obtain registration data, i.e. data in a consistent spatial coordinate system, to ensure the spatial consistency of the structural features of the coal rock layer and the mineral distribution information;

[0054] SS3: Based on the registration data, the coal rock layer joint region is segmented, then the joint surface point cloud subset is extracted, and the RANSAC (Random Sample Consensus) algorithm is used to fit the plane of the joint surface point cloud subset to obtain the joint surface normal vector.

[0055] The angle calculation sub-module uses a GPU accelerated calculator, as shown in Figure 3 The specific steps of calculating the angle are as follows:

[0056] A1: Obtain the minimum principal stress direction of the current coal rock stratum by querying the existing in-situ stress database. The minimum principal stress direction usually determines the crack propagation direction;

[0057] A2: Based on the principle of fracture mechanics (the optimal cutting direction should be perpendicular to the minimum principal stress direction and parallel to the joint surface), the jet direction vector is calculated based on the joint surface normal vector and the minimum principal stress direction. The jet direction refers to the optimal propagation direction of the hydraulic cutting under a specific pressure and stress. The jet direction vector J needs to be perpendicular to the joint surface normal vector N(x, y, z) and the minimum principal stress direction σ3(x, y, z). Then the jet direction vector J can be directly solved by cross multiplication: J = N x σ3. Then the components of the jet direction vector can be calculated by the following formula respectively:

[0058] J x =N y ×σ 3,z -N z ×σ 3,y

[0059] J y =N z ×σ 3,x -N x ×σ 3,z

[0060] J z =N x ×σ 3,y -N y ×σ 3,x

[0061] The cross multiplication result J is normalized to a unit vector J u . Then according to the ratio of fluid pressure to ground stress, a fine tuning coefficient k is introduced to obtain the jet direction vector J f :

[0062] J f =J u +k(N×σ3)A3: Convert the jet direction vector to the device coordinate system, that is, according to the components of the jet direction vector J f , calculate the target azimuth angle (value range 0-360°) and inclination angle (value range 0-90°).

[0063] The trajectory planning submodule is a motion controller, as shown in Figure 4 , and the specific steps of generating trajectory adjustment instructions are as follows:

[0064] A1: Based on the data of target azimuth and inclination angle, and combined with the current attitude information of the device (current azimuth, current inclination angle and current angular velocity), a preliminary path from the current device attitude to the target azimuth and inclination angle is generated using the Dijkstra path planning algorithm. Specifically, the Dijkstra path planning algorithm discretizes the device attitude space into nodes, and the transition cost between nodes = angle change amount x time coefficient + geology risk penalty. Then, starting from the current attitude node (azimuth θ, inclination angle φ), the minimum cost path from the current attitude node to the target attitude node is searched. ) is searched.

[0065] A2: The trajectory is further optimized using a particle swarm dynamic optimization algorithm to optimize the speed and acceleration of angle adjustment, avoiding rapid angle changes to prevent device vibration or instability.

[0066] The process of the particle swarm dynamic optimization algorithm for further optimizing the trajectory is as follows:

[0067] First, the preliminary adjustment route generated by the Dijkstra algorithm is received (for example: azimuth 30°→60°, inclination 5°→20°), and then the physical constraints are set, i.e. the parameters of the bound device (maximum rotation speed and maximum acceleration). A candidate scheme is generated, i.e. multiple sets of speed-acceleration combinations are randomly created (for example, fast high acceleration, uniform speed slow adjustment, etc.), each combination is taken as a particle, and each particle is scored, with the scoring criteria including adjustment total time (the shorter the better) and acceleration fluctuation (the smoother the better), for example: 10 seconds of time consumption but acceleration mutation → low score (easy to cause device vibration), scheme B: 12 seconds of time consumption but smooth acceleration → high score (stability priority); Finally, the particles converge to the global optimal solution by gradually eliminating the schemes with large vibration or long time consumption, and output the optimized trajectory.

[0068] A3: Based on the optimized trajectory, a command set is generated containing device rotation angle adjustment (to ensure the device adjusts to the target rotation angle), device inclination angle adjustment (to ensure the device adjusts to the target inclination angle), angle adjustment speed and acceleration adjustment (to ensure the stability during angle adjustment), and inclination torque adjustment (to control the inclination of the device during adjustment to ensure stable operation).

[0069] A4: The trajectory is real-time corrected by fusing sensor data from the data perception module using extended Kalman filtering, which can effectively fuse data from different sensors and real-time correct the device's motion trajectory, ensuring that the device performs operations according to the optimized trajectory.

[0070] The mechanical execution module adjusts the device posture according to the trajectory adjustment instruction, which includes a rotation execution submodule for adjusting the rotation posture of the device, a pitch execution submodule for adjusting the pitch posture of the device, and a manual control submodule for manual intervention control.

[0071] The rotation execution submodule includes a hydraulic motor, a gear reducer, and an absolute encoder. The hydraulic motor can provide large torque and stable rotation output, thereby providing rotation driving force; the gear reducer converts the high rotation speed of the hydraulic motor into low rotation speed and large torque output, thereby effectively adjusting the rotation speed and enabling the device to rotate at an accurate speed; and the absolute encoder can real-time feedback the rotation angle of the device and maintain high accuracy, and can accurately record the angle position even after power failure or device restart. During device operation, the mechanical execution module receives the trajectory adjustment instruction, and the hydraulic motor starts driving rotation after receiving the control signal. During this process, the gear reducer converts the high rotation speed of the hydraulic motor into low rotation speed and high torque rotation, the rotation of the device is accurately adjusted through the gear reducer, the rotation encoder real-time feedbacks the current rotation angle, and the device reaches the predetermined rotation angle. After the device rotates to the target angle, the rotation execution submodule stops working, and the device is ready for the next operation.

[0072] The pitch execution submodule includes a double synchronous hydraulic cylinder, a servo proportional valve, and a displacement sensor. The double synchronous hydraulic cylinder is used to control the pitch action of the device, ensuring the stability and accurate adjustment of the device in the pitch direction; the servo proportional valve adjusts the flow and pressure of the hydraulic oil according to the trajectory adjustment instruction, accurately controls the extension and retraction of the hydraulic cylinder, and thereby realizes the adjustment of the pitch angle of the device; and the displacement sensor is used to detect the displacement of the hydraulic cylinder and feedback the signal, ensuring that the device is adjusted at the predetermined pitch angle. During device operation, after the rotation execution submodule stops working, the pitch execution submodule starts working, the servo proportional valve adjusts the flow and pressure of the hydraulic oil in the double synchronous hydraulic cylinder according to the trajectory adjustment instruction, drives the synchronous movement of the hydraulic cylinder, and realizes the pitch adjustment of the device. After the pitch adjustment is completed, the hydraulic system remains static, ensuring that the device reaches the required pitch angle and is ready for the water jet slotting operation.

[0073] The manual control submodule is used for manual intervention and fine adjustment in special cases, and is commonly used for emergency operation, debugging stage or when the automatic control system fails, to ensure that the operation of the equipment can continue. The manual control submodule includes a manual control panel, a feedback display and an electric control interface. The manual control panel allows the operator to directly control the rotation and pitch adjustment of the equipment, the feedback display is used to display the current rotation angle, pitch angle and other information of the equipment in real time, and the electric control interface is used to transmit the control instructions output by the manual control panel to the central control module, so as to control the execution mechanism such as a servo proportional valve, a double synchronous hydraulic cylinder, a hydraulic motor and a gear reducer through the central control module. The manual control is connected with the automatic control through the electric control interface, so as to ensure that the control signals manually issued during manual control do not conflict with the automatic control.

[0074] The high-pressure water module is used to cut the water joint at a set angle under the control of the central control module after the posture of the equipment is adjusted by the operator issuing control instructions through the manual control submodule. The high-pressure water module includes a power submodule for providing driving power, a conveying submodule for providing conveying function and an execution submodule for executing cutting.

[0075] The power submodule includes a three-cylinder plunger pump, a variable frequency motor and an energy storage pressure stabilizing tank. When the equipment is working, the variable frequency motor drives the plunger pump to pressurize the normal pressure water to a set pressure, and in this process, the pressure pulsation is absorbed by the energy storage pressure stabilizing tank.

[0076] The conveying submodule includes a high-pressure hose, a rotary joint and a drill rod, the high-pressure hose is connected with the drill rod through the rotary joint, so that the internal passage of the high-pressure hose is communicated with the central passage of the drill rod.

[0077] The execution submodule includes a slit cutter integrated with a diamond nozzle, and the slit cutter is connected with the drill rod, so that the high-pressure water flows through the internal flow passages of the high-pressure hose, the drill rod and the slit cutter, and is sprayed from the diamond nozzle (water flow velocity > 800 m / s).

[0078] In summary, the present application provides a hydraulic slotting device with flexible angle adjustment for complex geology. The device obtains geological data of the rock mass and state data of the equipment through the data sensing module, and fuses the data through the intelligent decision module. Then, the angle calculation submodule and the trajectory planning submodule are used to calculate and generate accurate angle adjustment instructions based on real-time geological data, so that the device can adapt to different geological characteristics and maintain high efficiency. In addition, the device provides flexible angle control, which allows the device to accurately adjust the posture according to real-time geological data and target angle, avoiding poor slotting effect due to improper angle, and improving the slotting precision, operation stability and efficiency of the hydraulic slotting device in complex geological environment.

[0079] Finally, it is to be explained that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present application but not to limit the present application.
