[0016] The present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0017] The oil casing inner wall processing tool provided by this invention, such as... Figure 1As shown, the device includes a central tie rod 4. One end of the central tie rod 4 has a lower connecting thread 1 on its outer wall. The lower connecting thread 1 is mainly used to connect with other special tools for connecting well testing wire or logging cables. The other end of the central tie rod 4 has an upper connecting thread 10 on its outer wall. A limiter 2 and a counterweight sleeve 5 are fitted onto the central tie rod 4. The counterweight sleeve 5 is engaged with a chuck 6. The counterweight sleeve 5 mainly relies on its own weight to pull the chuck 6, keeping the chuck 6 in a retracted state. A chuck fixing ring 7 is fitted onto the outer wall of the chuck 6 to prevent the chuck 6 from dislodging from its assembly position. A hard alloy block unit is fixedly connected to the chuck 6. The limiter 2, counterweight sleeve 5, chuck 6, and hard alloy block unit are arranged sequentially along the direction from the lower connecting thread 1 to the upper connecting thread 10. The central tie rod 4 has several pin holes 9. The limiter 2 is fixedly connected to the central tie rod 4 through pins 3 in the pin holes 9. The central tie rod 4 includes the first... A straight section rod 401 has a lower connecting thread 1 at one end. A gradually expanding section rod 402 and a second straight section rod 403 are sequentially fixed to the other end of the first straight section rod 401. An upper connecting thread 10 is located at the other end of the second straight section rod 403. A limiter 2 and a counterweight sleeve 5 are both located on the outer wall of the first straight section rod 401. One end of a claw 6 engages with the counterweight sleeve 5 on the outer wall of the first straight section rod 401. The other end of the 6 is fixed to the outer wall of the gradually expanding section rod 402 with a cemented carbide block unit; the cemented carbide block unit includes several cemented carbide blocks 8, which are fixed to the outer wall of the claw 6 along the circumferential direction; the cemented carbide blocks 8 and the claw 6 are fixed by either inlay or welding. The main function of the cemented carbide blocks 8 is to contact the inner surface of the oil casing and to scratch file-like machining marks on the inner surface of the oil casing.

[0018] The working principle of the file-like machining tool for the inner wall of the casing and tubing provided by this invention is as follows: the test wire or cable is connected to the central tie rod 4 through the lower connecting thread 1. After the test wire or cable is lowered into the casing and tubing of the oil and gas well to a predetermined depth, the test wire or logging cable is quickly lowered. The central tie rod 4 moves downward under the action of gravity, and the claws 6, which are embedded or welded with hard alloy 8, come into contact with the inner wall of the casing and tubing. Under the action of friction, the claws 6 move upward along the gradually expanding section 402 of the central tie rod 4 and embed into the inner surface of the casing and tubing, forming file-like machining marks on the inner surface of the casing and tubing. By repeating this up and down motion, a dense file-like surface can be formed at a predetermined position on the inner wall of the casing and tubing, thus achieving the ultimate purpose of this tool: increasing the friction between the sealing rubber of the downhole choke and the inner wall of the tubing and the filing ability of the inner wall of the casing and tubing, making it easier to retrieve the downhole choke.
