DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0019] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.
[0020] Example
[0021] The utility model provides a shale gas exploration auxiliary device, comprising: a cylindrical shell 1, wherein the cylindrical shell 1 is used for fixed connection with a well wall sampling device;
[0022] A drive motor 2 is connected and installed inside the cylindrical shell 1 through a mounting bracket 3, and a lead screw 4 is connected to the output shaft of the drive motor 2. A spiral sleeve 7 is meshed and connected to the lead screw 4. A slide seat 5 with a concave longitudinal section is circumferentially sleeved and installed on the spiral sleeve 7. A cover plate 6 is provided on the top of the slide seat 5. The cover plate 6 and the slide seat 5 form a covering structure to fit the spiral sleeve 7 up and down and fix it;
[0023] The sliding seat 5 has a plurality of first hinge seats 8 symmetrically distributed on the ground edge, each of which is provided with a support rod 9. The cylindrical shell 1 is provided with a slot 14 for accommodating the movement of the support rod 9. The plurality of first hinge seats 8 mentioned above is not less than 3, and three or more symmetrically distributed support rods 9 can automatically balance the axis.
[0024] The driving motor 2 drives the lead screw 4 to rotate, thereby driving the spiral sleeve 7 to drive the slide 5 to rise and fall along the lead screw 4. As the slide 5 descends, the support rod 9 located on the slide 5 diverges outward on the slot 14 to form an umbrella-opening movement, thereby forming a support on the well wall, fixing the entire well wall sampling equipment, and improving the accuracy and stability of the sampling process. Compared with gear, belt and other transmissions, the lead screw 4 transmission has a certain self-locking property, which can prevent the support rod 9 from moving in the opposite direction under the action of external force, loosening the support for the well wall and causing danger.
[0025] The end of the support rod 9 away from the first hinge seat 8 is connected to a foot support 11 through a second hinge seat 10. The foot support 11 can increase the contact area with the shaft wall. The shape of the foot support 11 is an arc surface that matches the corresponding notch 14. Under the action of the support rod 9, the foot support 11 can be completely fitted with the outer wall of the cylinder, which can reduce the overall axial size and improve the practicality of the site. Furthermore, it can avoid interference and collision with the shaft wall during the process of entering and exiting the mine.
[0026] Each of the foot supports 11 is evenly provided with anti-skid spikes 13 on its outer arc surface. The anti-skid spikes 13 are made of wear-resistant steel. The anti-skid spikes 13 can strengthen the fixation with the well wall in some soft geological environments, and the wear-resistant steel can increase the service life of the anti-skid spikes 13 .
[0027] The notch 14 is a tapered hole structure that is small inside and large outside, and the foot support 11 is a draft arc panel structure that is small inside and large outside. A sealing ring 12 is provided on the side of each foot support 11 to form a fitting sealing structure. During the process of entering and exiting the mine, dust and debris are prevented from entering the cylindrical shell 1 through the notch 14, thereby increasing the service life.
[0028] The bottom surface of the spiral sleeve 7 is provided with a lower bearing 15 that cooperates with the bottom of the slide seat 5. The top surface of the spiral sleeve 7 is provided with an upper bearing 16 that cooperates with the bottom of the cover plate 6. The lower bearing 15 and the upper bearing 16 are both thrust ball bearings, which change from sliding friction to rolling friction, thereby reducing the friction between the spiral sleeve 7 and the slide seat 5 and the cover plate 6, avoiding jamming, hard friction and the like, and protecting the drive motor 2.
[0029] An ascending limit switch 17 and a descending limit switch 18 are provided inside the cylindrical shell 1. When the cover plate 6 rises to the top surface and contacts the ascending limit switch 17, the foot support 11 is located in a state of being completely retracted into the corresponding slot 14; when the slide seat 5 descends to the bottom surface and contacts the descending limit switch 18, the foot support 11 is located in a state of being perpendicular to the cylindrical shell 1.
[0030] In some embodiments, the fixing degree of the foot support 11 and the well wall can be indirectly detected by detecting the power of the driving motor 2, that is, when the power of the driving motor 2 reaches the set value, it can be determined that the fixing degree of the foot support 11 and the well wall has reached a reliable level, at which time the application of the driving power signal to the driving motor 2 can be stopped, and the entire cylindrical shell 1 and the well wall sampling device can be fixed by using the self-locking property of the lead screw 4 transmission;
[0031] In another embodiment, the slide 5 descends, and the support rod 9 on the slide 5 diverges outward on the slot 14 to form an umbrella-opening movement. When the foot support 11 is in a state perpendicular to the cylindrical shell 1, the foot support 11 reaches the maximum expansion position, and the supporting pressure on the well wall is the maximum. At this time, the slide 5 descends to the bottom surface and contacts the limit-dropping switch 18. At this time, the power supply signal applied to the drive motor 2 can be stopped, and the self-locking property of the screw 4 transmission can be used to fix the entire cylindrical shell 1 and the well wall sampling equipment; the use and setting method of the limit-up switch 17 are similar to those of the limit-down switch 18, and no further details will be given.
[0032] Finally, it should be noted that the above are only preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the above embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the above embodiments or replace some of the technical features therein by equivalents. Any modification, equivalent replacement, improvement, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present invention shall be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
