[0021] The features and performance of the present invention are further described in detail below in conjunction with the embodiments.
[0022] In the utility model, a backstop ring is sleeved on the outer peripheral surface of the base, and the backstop ring is used to cooperate with the screw end stop of the jacking screw to prevent the jacking screw from coming out.
[0023] In the embodiment of the logging instrument in the utility model:
[0024] like Figure 1As shown, the logging instrument in this embodiment includes a hollow rotating shaft 8 and a rotating base 2. The inside of the hollow rotating shaft 8 is used to set the cable. The rotating base 2 is fixedly provided with a sensor 10. In order to facilitate the fixed connection between the rotating base 2 and the rotating shaft 8, a base 3 is also provided between the rotating base 2 and the rotating shaft 8. A threaded section is provided at the end of the rotating shaft 8, and a threaded mounting hole for threaded assembly with the threaded section at the end of the rotating shaft 8 is provided on the base 3. A step structure is also provided on the outer peripheral surface of the base 3. Specifically, the base 3 is a structure with a thick middle and thin ends, that is, the base 3 has a large diameter section in the middle and a small diameter section at both ends, and a step structure is formed between the large diameter section and the small diameter section, that is, two step structures arranged at intervals are provided on the base 3, and the direction of the rotating shaft 8 toward the end is defined as the outside, and the direction toward the installation of the rotating shaft 8 is defined as the inside. The step structure located on the outside of the base 3 is recorded as the outside step, and the step structure located on the inside of the base 3 is recorded as the inside step. The small diameter section located on the outside is used to install the rotating base 2, and the small diameter section is recorded as the outside small diameter section.
[0025] like Figure 1 As shown, the rotating base 2 is provided with a mounting section for installation, and the mounting section is provided with a mounting hole. The mounting hole of the rotating base 2 is nested with the outer small diameter section on the base 3, and the outer step stopper at the end of the rotating base 2 cooperates. A threaded structure is also provided on the outer peripheral surface of the mounting section of the rotating base 2. In order to facilitate the fixed connection between the rotating base 2 and the base 3, the well logging instrument also includes a threaded sleeve 1, one end of the threaded sleeve 1 is a threaded hole section, and the other end is also provided with a convex ring protruding from the inner wall of the threaded sleeve 1. The convex ring of the threaded sleeve 1 cooperates with the inner step stopper where the inner small diameter section on the base 3 is located, and the threaded hole section of the threaded sleeve 1 is threadedly matched with the threaded section on the rotating base 2. The threaded sleeve 1 is fixedly connected to the threaded sleeve 1, the base 3 and the rotating base 2 through the threaded section and the convex ring on the threaded sleeve 1, that is, the rotating base 2 is indirectly provided on the base 3. Of course, in other embodiments, the rotating base 2 can also be directly sleeved on the base 3, and the rotating base 2 and the base 3 are welded.
[0026] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, in order to prevent the threaded sleeve 1, the rotating base 2 and the base 3 from loosening, a limit screw 4 is threadedly assembled on the threaded sleeve 1, and a limit groove is also provided on the large diameter section of the base 3. The limit groove is an annular groove provided on the outer peripheral surface of the base 3, and the limit screw 4 extends into the limit groove, and the limit screw 4 cooperates with the stopper of the groove side wall of the limit groove to prevent loosening. Of course, in other embodiments, the limit groove may no longer be provided, but the end of the limit screw 4 may be in contact with the outer peripheral surface of the base 3.
[0027] An extension section is also provided on the inner side of the inner small diameter section of the base 3. In order to prevent the base 3 and the rotating shaft 8 from loosening, a tightening screw 6 is also threadedly mounted on the extension section of the base 3. The end of the tightening screw 6 abuts against the outer peripheral surface of the rotating shaft 8, so that the tightening screw 6 is fixedly arranged with the base 3 and has a large friction force with the rotating shaft 8, which is convenient for preventing the base 3 and the rotating shaft 8 from loosening. In order to prevent the tightening screw 6 from coming out and causing the anti-loosening failure between the base 3 and the rotating shaft 8, a stop ring 5 is also sleeved on the extension section of the base 3. The stop ring 5 is arranged on the outside of the tightening screw 6 and is used to cooperate with the screw head stop of the tightening screw 6. Under the action of the stop ring 5, the screw of the tightening screw 6 will move toward the inner surface of the stop ring 5 during the loosening process. Since the screw head of the tightening screw 6 abuts against the inner surface of the stop ring 5, the tightening screw 6 will not retreat under the action of the inner surface of the stop ring 5, so that the anti-loosening is continuously effective. A step structure is formed between the extension section and the inner minor diameter section, and the step structure constitutes a stop step, and the end face of the threaded sleeve 1 is flush with the step surface of the stop step. Of course, in other embodiments, the end face of the threaded sleeve 1 can also protrude from the step surface of the stop step.
[0028] like Figure 2 As shown, in order to facilitate the setting of the stop ring 5, a stop surface arranged parallel to the axis of the base 3 is provided on the outer peripheral surface of the extension section of the base 3, and a stop plane that fits the stop surface is provided on the stop ring 5. The stop surface and the stop plane cooperate with each other, so that the stop ring 5 will not rotate on the base 3. Since the base 3 needs to rotate, the weight along the rotation axis needs to be as close as possible during the rotation process, so two stop surfaces are provided, and the two stop surfaces are evenly arranged about the axis of the base 3. Of course, in other embodiments, three stop surfaces can also be provided, and the three stop surfaces are evenly arranged about the rotation axis of the base 3. Alternatively, only one stop surface can be provided or no stop surface can be provided.
[0029] In order to facilitate the arrangement of the jacking screw 6, a threaded hole for accommodating the jacking screw 6 is provided on the stop surface, and the threaded hole is a countersunk hole, and the screw head of the jacking screw 6 is accommodated in the countersunk hole. Providing a countersunk hole on the stop surface facilitates the installation of the backstop ring 5, and the backstop ring 5 can be directly pushed into the outer peripheral surface of the base 3 from the end. Of course, in other embodiments, the base 3 may no longer be provided with a stop surface, and the jacking screw 6 is directly arranged on the cylindrical surface of the base 3. Alternatively, the jacking screw 6 is set as a top screw, and the countersunk hole may no longer be provided.
[0030] like Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, the stop ring 5 also has a certain risk of falling. The stop ring 5 is also provided with a positioning structure for positioning the stop ring 5 so that the stop ring 5 is fixed relative to the rotating shaft 8. Specifically, the positioning structure includes a locking screw 9 threadedly assembled on the stop ring 5, and a stop groove is also provided on the extension section of the base 3. The locking screw extends into the stop groove and cooperates with the groove side wall of the stop groove. Of course, in other embodiments, the locking screw 9 can also be threadedly assembled on the stop ring 5, and the end of the locking screw is pressed against the outer peripheral surface of the extension section of the base 3. In order to further enhance the reliability of the stop ring 5, a retaining ring 7 is also installed on the rotating shaft 8, and the retaining ring 7 is assembled on the rotating shaft 8. The side of the retaining ring 7 cooperates with the end face stop of the stop ring 5, so that the stop ring 5 will not move in the axial direction. Of course, in other embodiments, the retaining ring 7 can also be no longer provided and only the locking screw is provided. Or, in other embodiments, the locking screw can also be no longer provided but only the retaining ring 7 is provided. Alternatively, in other embodiments, the locking screw and the retaining ring 7 may no longer be provided, and the inner surface of the retaining ring 5 and the outer peripheral surface of the extension section of the base 3 may be interference fit together, and the inner surface of the retaining ring 5 constitutes a positioning structure.
[0031] When the logging instrument needs to be assembled, firstly, the threaded sleeve 1, the retaining ring 7 and the backstop ring 5 are sleeved on the rotating shaft 8, then the base 3 is installed on the rotating shaft 8, then the rotating base 2 is sleeved on the outside of the base 3, and then the threaded sleeve 1 is screwed on the outer circumference of the base 3 and the rotating base 2. Then, the limit screw 4 and the tightening screw 6 are screwed into the threaded sleeve 1 and the base 3 respectively to prevent loosening. Then, the backstop ring 5 and the locking screw 9 are installed, and finally the retaining ring 7 is fixedly set on the rotating shaft 8 so that the side of the retaining ring 7 matches the end face stop of the backstop ring 5.

The patent protection scope of the present invention shall be based on the claims. All equivalent structural changes made using the description and drawings of the present invention shall be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
