TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the field of high-pressure water pressure test, in particular, to a high-pressure water pressure bias push-pull valve. BACKGROUND
[0002] At present, fissure rock mass seepage is a problem often encountered in the fields of hydropower engineering construction, nuclear waste geological disposal and oil field development, and the determination of the permeability of fissure rock mass is the key to the establishment and calculation of the seepage model. The permeability coefficient is a physical index reflecting the permeability of rock mass, and is one of the key parameters for predicting the water inflow of a mine (or working face). In the geological survey of pressure-bearing projects such as water conservancy and hydropower, underground caverns, deep tunnels and high dams, it is crucial to accurately grasp the permeability characteristics of rock mass under high water head, which is directly related to the safety of the project and the effectiveness of the anti-seepage design. One of the most commonly used methods to determine the permeability characteristics of fissure rock mass is borehole water pressure test, which is an in-situ permeability test conducted in a borehole. The water is pressed into the fissures around the borehole wall by using the self-weight pressure of the water column or mechanical (pump) pressure, and then the amount of water pressed in per unit time is measured under certain conditions to measure the permeability of the rock mass. As an in-situ permeability test method, conventional water pressure test can detect the water permeability of rock mass under low pressure conditions, evaluate the permeability, and qualitatively understand the fissure development degree of rock layers at different depths, and provide basic reference data for anti-seepage design.
[0003] However, with the development of large-scale water conservancy and hydropower projects towards high water head and deep burial, the conventional water pressure test cannot meet the requirements due to its limited maximum test pressure. The fundamental limitation is that it cannot simulate the true response of rock mass under high water head pressure: under the action of high-pressure water flow, the complete rock mass and the weak structural planes (such as joints, fault fracture zones, etc.) in the rock mass may be subjected to hydraulic fracturing, opening or expansion, significantly changing the original water permeability of the rock mass, and leading to the fact that the conventional test results cannot truly reflect the seepage characteristics under the running state of the project. At this time, the conventional water pressure test cannot accurately reflect the permeability characteristics of rock mass under actual water head pressure, so high-pressure water pressure test should be carried out. High-pressure water pressure test can not only truly reflect the permeability characteristics of fissure rock mass, but also evaluate the critical pressure value of various structural planes resisting hydraulic fracturing damage, providing a basis for the grouting treatment of fissure rock mass in underground engineering. High-pressure water pressure test can better understand the permeability of rock mass under high-pressure water flow, obtain the critical pressure, deformation mode of opening and cracking under high-pressure permeation, and reliable data of the permeability coefficient of rock mass under the running state of the project.
[0004] The core of high-pressure water pressure test method is to test under the pressure equal to or greater than the actual pressure of the surrounding rock where the project is located. For the pre-selected high-pressure water test section, high-pressure water pressure test isolates a certain length of the test section of the drill hole by using special water stopping equipment (such as water pressure cross-connection type high-pressure packer, water swelling type packer with effective length greater than 10 times the hole diameter) to form a closed cavity. Then, using a high-pressure water pump in a step-by-step pressure boosting manner, a fixed water pressure is applied to the test section. The water flow penetrates into the rock mass through the fissures around the hole wall under the action of pressure until the water penetration reaches a steady state. During the test process, the injection flow and pressure data at each pressure stage are continuously and automatically recorded by intelligent high-pressure flow meters, pressure sensors, pressure gauges and data acquisition instruments. High-pressure water pressure test sets up a water pressure hole and an observation hole, and when the water pressure reaches a relatively stable state, the water flow in the rock mass can be considered as a steady flow. At this time, the water pressure in the water pressure hole, the water pressure in the observation hole and the pressure injection flow can be used to calculate the permeability coefficient of the rock mass. The purpose of the high-pressure water pressure test of the drill hole is to determine the water permeability of the rock mass and provide reference data for evaluating the permeability of the rock mass and the anti-seepage measures. The ground equipment of general high-pressure water pressure test mainly includes high-pressure water pump, flow meter, pressure gauge / sensor, high-pressure control pipeline, valve and data acquisition system; the in-hole equipment includes push-pull valve and cross-connection packer.
[0005] High-pressure water pressure test not only can more truly reflect the permeability characteristics of fissured rock mass under high water head, but also can evaluate the critical pressure value of various structural planes resisting hydraulic fracturing failure. In the selection of structure type of high water head power station, high pressure tunnel and branch pipe, the determination of anti-seepage treatment (especially grouting pressure), the evaluation of permeability stability, the performance of surrounding rock barrier of nuclear waste geological disposal repository, the prediction of permeability mutation of surrounding rock under the disturbance of deep coal seam mining, high-pressure water pressure test has extremely important significance. Since the 1970s of last century, some large-scale hydropower projects in China have carried out research work on high-pressure water pressure test. According to the existing data, at present, most of the specifications in China refer to the “Drilling Water Pressure Test Specification for Hydropower Engineering” issued by the State Energy Administration in 2018. There are already more than ten hydropower projects in China that have carried out high-pressure water pressure test work, and the research on high-pressure water pressure test theory also has different research results.
[0006] The widely used high-pressure water pressure measurement system in China consists of six parts: pressure fluid control system, high-pressure water pump, power system, data recording system, cross-connection packer and high-pressure fluid conveying system. This measurement system is divided into two types, one is for shallow holes of 100 m, we can use drill pipe and high-pressure hose to supply water to the packer and test section respectively to realize high-pressure water pressure. The other equipment is for deep hole measurement above 100 m, we use a conversion valve to supply pressure liquid to the test section and the packer respectively, and the test system diagram is shown in Figure 17 、 Figure 18
[0007] The prior art in the above has the following defects: through the previous analysis, the double-circuit test system forms two pressure channels with the long high-pressure water pipe and the drill pipe outside the packer, is suitable for shallow borehole test and has complex operation, and has limitations. With the increasing depth of underground engineering, deep geological drilling will be widespread, and generally only single-circuit test system can be selected for testing. In the high-pressure water pressure test device, the single-circuit test system with push-pull valve has high pressure resistance and strength requirements for the pipeline as a whole; and in order to ensure the accuracy of the test results, a water pressure channel with sufficient size is required to meet the flow requirements of high-pressure fluid, which undoubtedly limits the strength of the pipeline, especially the push-pull valve, so a solution is needed to balance between the two.

[0071] In the embodiment of the present application, the valve body 20 is provided with a valve body middle connecting hole 24 and a connecting piece connecting hole 25 at the two ends, respectively, one end of the valve core passage A21 is in communication with the valve body middle connecting hole 24, and the other end of the valve core passage A21 is in communication with the connecting piece connecting hole 25, the valve body middle connecting hole 24 is sealingly connected to one end of the valve body 30, and the connecting piece connecting hole 25 is sealingly connected to the valve body connecting piece 70.
[0072] In a specific embodiment of the present invention, a connecting pipe interface 35 is provided at the second end of the valve body 30. The connecting pipe interface 35 communicates with the pressure water channel 33, and one end of the connecting pipe 80 is sealed and connected to the connecting pipe interface 35. The function of the connecting pipe 80 is to connect the valve body 30 and the packer connector 90, thereby leading the high-pressure fluid of the push-pull valve pressure water channel to the central rod inside the packer through the packer connector 90. The second end of the valve body 30 is also provided with a threaded hole for connecting the gap return oil pipe joint. The gap return oil pipe joint leads the high-pressure fluid of the sealing channel through an external rubber hose to the rubber sleeve of the packer to achieve packer expansion.
[0073] Specifically, such as Figures 6-7 As shown in the specific embodiment of the present invention, a shoulder positioning groove is provided on the inner side of the valve body connector 70, and a shoulder is provided at the junction of the nut connecting section 13 and the valve body connecting section 14 on the surface of the valve core 10. The valve core 10 is positioned by the shoulder positioning groove, and the outer side of the valve body connector 70 is connected to the upper valve body 20. The purpose of the design structure is to solve the installation conflict between the valve body shoulder positioning and the valve core 10 offset scheme. Thus, during assembly, the upper valve body 20 and the middle valve body 30 are first threaded together, then the valve core 10 is inserted into the inner holes of both for mating, and finally the valve body connector 70 is threaded together with the upper valve body 20 to achieve the shoulder positioning of the valve core 10, ensuring the normal switching between the seated position and the pressure water position of the valve core 10.
[0074] In a specific embodiment of the present invention, one end of the connecting pipe 80 is connected to a packer connector 90. The packer connector 90 has external threads on both sides, with the two external threads respectively connecting to the connecting pipe 80 and the packer. The packer connector 90 is hollow and has a pressure water channel. The connecting pipe 80 is threaded on both sides to connect the valve body 30 and the packer connector 90, with the inner hole serving as a pressure water channel to guide high-pressure fluid to the test section for high-pressure water pressure. The packer connector 90 connects the packer and the connecting pipe 80 on both sides and is assembled and tightened using a wrench. This structure is designed to allow direct connection to the center rod of the finished packer, avoiding conflicts caused by different push-pull valves and different packer connections. Furthermore, the packer connector 90 has a wrench attachment for easy assembly and clamping.
[0075] The shoulder positioning method, because the position of the shoulder positioning groove in the valve body connector 70 is fixed, cannot be adjusted when limiting the valve core 10; it can only limit the position of the shoulder of the valve core 10. This results in a single limiting function and poor adaptability to complex working environments. Therefore, the following is a specific implementation scheme for the high-pressure water offset push-pull valve of this application, with reference to the attached drawings:
[0076] Specifically, such as Figures 9-12As shown in the specific embodiment of the present application, a limiting sliding groove 71 is formed in the inner wall of the valve body connecting piece 70, a limiting sliding block 72 is slidably connected in the limiting sliding groove 71, a rotating ring 73 is rotatably connected to the outer surface of the valve body connecting piece 70, an inner thread is formed in the inner wall of the rotating ring 73, an axial shoulder sleeve 74 is slidably connected in the valve body connecting piece 70, and an outer thread is formed in the upper end of the limiting sliding block 72 and matched with the inner thread of the rotating ring 73.
[0077] In the specific embodiment of the present application, anti-skid lines are formed on the outer surface of the rotating ring 73, a prismatic body 703 is integrally formed on the outer surface of the valve body connecting piece 70, a clamping spring 701 is clamped on the surface of the valve body connecting piece 70, a limiting groove is formed between the clamping spring 701 and the prismatic body 703, and the rotating ring 73 is rotatably clamped in the limiting groove. The anti-skid lines on the outer surface of the rotating ring 73 increase the friction of the hands, and the prismatic body 703 on the outer surface of the valve body connecting piece 70 (which can be fixed by a wrench) enables the operator to easily and stably rotate the rotating ring 73, so as to finely adjust the position of the axial shoulder sleeve 74 and avoid the positioning deviation caused by slipping or uneven force during the adjustment process. The rotating ring 73 is limited in the fixed groove by the clamping spring 701 and the prismatic body 703, so as to ensure that it can only rotate around the valve body connecting piece 70 without axial movement, thereby ensuring the stability of the adjustment process and the consistency of the adjustment result.
[0078] When the valve core 10 is worn or needs to be replaced, the entire valve body connecting piece 70 does not need to be disassembled, and the axial shoulder sleeve 74 can be quickly adjusted to adapt to the new valve core 10 by only rotating the rotating ring 73, thereby simplifying the maintenance process, shortening the downtime, and reducing the maintenance cost. When the working condition parameters such as fluid pressure and flow change, the position of the axial shoulder sleeve 74 can be finely adjusted to optimize the matching state of the valve core 10 and the valve body, thereby improving the sealing effect, reducing the fluid resistance, or reducing the component wear, and prolonging the service life of the entire valve assembly. By rotating the rotating ring 73, the rotating ring 73 pushes the limiting sliding block 72 to slide during the rotation, so that the limiting sliding block 72 drives the axial shoulder sleeve 74 to slide along the inner wall of the valve body connecting piece 70, thereby facilitating the adjustment of the position of the axial shoulder positioning. The axial shoulder sleeve 74 can be adjusted for different use requirements or different specifications of the valve core 10, so as to adapt to more scene uses.
[0079] The valve core 10 slides in the valve body connecting piece 70 and collides with the axial shoulder sleeve 74. Long-time collision impact can damage the structure of the valve body connecting piece 70. Therefore, the following refers to the specific embodiment of the high-pressure water biasing push-pull valve according to the present application:
[0080] Specifically, as Figures 10-11As shown in the specific embodiment of the present application, the outer surface of the shaft shoulder sleeve 74 is fixed with a stop block 75, one side of the stop block 75 is connected with the limiting sliding block 72 through a damper 76, the other side of the stop block 75 is connected with the limiting sliding block 72 through a compression spring 77, the limiting sliding block 72 is hollowly provided with an accommodating groove, and the stop block 75 is slidingly clamped in the accommodating groove.
[0081] In the specific embodiment of the present application, the stop block 75 is fixed at the end of the shaft shoulder sleeve 74, the damper 76 and the compression spring 77 are arranged in the accommodating groove, and a limiting block 78 is fixed in the accommodating groove.
[0082] The end of the shaft shoulder sleeve 74 is connected with the limiting sliding block 72 through the fixed stop block 75, the damper 76 and the compression spring 77 arranged between the stop block 75 and the limiting sliding block 72 cooperate to achieve a good buffering and damping effect, offset the impact force of the valve core 10 in the sliding process, and prolong the service life of the parts; when the water hammer effect or pressure pulse occurs in the fluid system, the buffer system composed of the damper 76 and the compression spring 77 can quickly absorb energy, inhibit the excessive vibration of the valve core 10, avoid the valve core 10 from deviating from the normal working position due to instantaneous impact force, and ensure the stability of flow and pressure control; the buffer structure reduces the hard collision of the valve core 10 and the valve seat, reduces the wear rate of the key components, reduces the number of shutdown maintenance due to damage of the parts, and improves the continuous operation time of the equipment.
[0083] The vibration caused by the impact of the valve core 10 may cause fluid turbulence, increase the flow resistance and produce noise. The buffer structure can reduce the pressure fluctuation and vortex formation in the flow channel by stabilizing the movement of the valve core 10, improve the fluid conveying efficiency and reduce noise pollution; with the increase of the use time, the wear of the sealing surface will cause the increase of the fitting gap, which may cause looseness. The pre-tightening force of the compression spring 77 can dynamically compensate for this gap change, so that the valve core 10 always maintains good contact with the sealing surface, prolonging the effective service life of the sealing assembly.
[0084] In the specific embodiment of the present application, two stop blocks 75 are symmetrically arranged, the limiting sliding block 72 is arranged in one-to-one correspondence with the stop block 75, and the outer thread grooves opened on the outer surfaces of the two limiting sliding blocks 72 are the same outer thread.
[0085] Seat sealing operation: as Figure 13 As shown, during the process of lowering the drill pipe, when the valve core 10 moves axially in the inner cavity of the valve core passage B31 to the top end of the valve body 30, the high-pressure water flow in the valve upper connector 50 flows out from the water outlet hole 11 of the valve core 10 after being filtered by the filter pipe 40, enters the seat sealing water channel through the water outlet groove formed by the valve core 10 and the valve body 30, enters the upper and lower separators through the gap oil return pipe connector and the external rubber hose, and makes the packer expand and adhere to the borehole wall under pressure.
[0086] Water pressure operation: such as Figure 14 As shown, after the sealing operation is completed, high-pressure water pressure is initiated. High-pressure water flows through the drill rod, is filtered by the filter pipe 40, and then enters the valve core 10 of the push-pull valve. At this time, the valve core 10 moves axially to the bottom end within the valve body 30. Water flows through the outlet hole 11 of the valve core 10, through the inlet of the valve body 30, into the pressure water channel. Finally, water flows from the outlet channel of the valve body 30 into the connecting pipe 80, the packer connector 90, and the central pipe of the packer, reaching the test section and being directionally delivered to the target section aperture to complete the high-pressure water pressure operation. In the prior art, the pressure water operation requires pushing the valve core 10 completely to the bottom end of the valve, meaning that the valve core 10 and the pressure water channel have one and only one very precise connection position.
[0087] It should be pointed out that, from Figure 13 It can be clearly seen that during the seat operation of the push-pull valve, high-pressure water flows through the seat water channel into the separator, while Figure 15 and Figure 16 During high-pressure water injection operation, high-pressure water flows into the open-hole borehole of the test section through three water injection channels. The water in the two channels is spatially isolated and independent, without interfering with each other. It should also be noted that during the axial movement of the valve core 10, multiple sealing rings A22 and B32 exist between the valve core 10 and the valve body 30. This ensures that the high-pressure water flows into only one channel at each location, and also guarantees the packer pressure and the pressure in the test section during the setting stage.
[0088] The above description is merely an embodiment of this application and is not intended to limit the scope of protection of this application. Various modifications and variations can be made to this application by those skilled in the art. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of this application should be included within the scope of protection of this application. It should be noted that similar reference numerals and letters in the following figures indicate similar items; therefore, once an item is defined in one figure, it does not need to be further defined and explained in subsequent figures.
