Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of bridge plugs, in particular to a bridge plug which can be adapted to multiple pipe diameters. Background Art

[0002] The bridge plug device is an important tool used to plug the wellbore and isolate the layer section in oil and gas well drilling projects. It is widely used in oil and gas well drilling, water injection, testing and other operations. For example, in the process of oil and gas well drilling, the bridge plug can be used to plug the wellbore and isolate the oil and water layer; in the water injection operation, the bridge plug can be used to separate the water injection layer section and improve the water injection effect; in the testing operation, the bridge plug can be used to isolate the test layer section and obtain accurate test data.

[0003] The applicant searched the existing bridge plugs and found that the bridge plugs in the prior art could not fully deform during the sealing process due to the imperfect structure of the rubber cylinder, which resulted in the rubber cylinder not being able to be well sealed with the inner wall of the casing, thus affecting the effective sealing effect of the gas well layer. The bridge plug disclosed in Chinese Patent No. CN207568553U includes a center tube, a rubber cylinder and an extrusion assembly. Among them, the rubber cylinder is sleeved on the center tube, and the rubber cylinder has an annular groove, which is arranged on the inner wall of the rubber cylinder and located in the middle of the rubber cylinder. The extrusion assembly is arranged on the center tube and close to the rubber cylinder. The extrusion assembly has a fixed position fixed on the center tube and an extrusion position for extruding the rubber cylinder. The bridge plug can make the rubber cylinder fully deform and fully seal when compressed, and at the same time make the rubber cylinder hug the center tube, so as to achieve the purpose of effectively sealing the gas well layer.

[0004] However, the applicant found that when using the bridge plug, the rubber sleeve can deform to adapt to oil and gas well pipes of various diameters. However, when the diameter of the oil and gas well pipe is larger, the pressure resistance of the bridge plug is reduced, which will make the seal not firm enough, thereby reducing the use effect.

[0005] Therefore, in view of the above problems, it is necessary for the applicant to design a bridge plug that can adapt to multiple pipe diameters to solve the problem. Summary of the invention

[0024] Through the above structural design, when in use, when the bridge plug reaches the predetermined position of the oil and gas well pipeline, the release mechanism inside the bridge plug is started under preset conditions, so that the bridge plug body is separated from the release mechanism, and the bridge plug body is deployed in the wellbore and anchored by the rubber cylinder 11 and the slip assembly 13. At this time, the bridge plug body forms an insurmountable bridge, dividing the wellbore into two parts, the upper and lower parts, so as to achieve the purpose of isolating the layer sections. At the same time, the hydraulic cylinder 32 is started, the hydraulic cylinder 32 will push the connecting plate 33 to move, the movement of the connecting plate 33 will push the buffer spring 34 to move, the movement of the buffer spring 34 will push the extension rod 35 to move, and the movement of the extension rod 35 will push the anti-slip plate 22 to squeeze the inner wall of the oil and gas well, so that the seal is firm and the use effect is good.

[0025] The stabilizing mechanism 2 includes a fixing sleeve 20, and the fixing sleeve 20 is sleeved on the outside of the fixing shell 14. A plurality of fixing seats 21 are fixedly provided on the outer surface of the fixing sleeve 20, and one side of the plurality of fixing seats 21 are fixedly connected to the outer surface of the fixing sleeve 20.

[0027] Working principle: When the bridge plug that can adapt to multiple diameters is used, when the bridge plug reaches the predetermined position of the oil and gas well pipeline, the release mechanism inside the bridge plug is activated under the preset conditions, so that the bridge plug body is separated from the release mechanism, and the bridge plug body is deployed in the wellbore and anchored by the rubber cylinder 11 and the slip assembly 13. At this time, the bridge plug body forms an insurmountable bridge, dividing the wellbore into two parts, the upper and lower parts, to achieve the purpose of isolating the layer section, and at the same time, the hydraulic cylinder 32 is started, the hydraulic cylinder 32 will push the connecting plate 33 to move, the movement of the connecting plate 33 will push the buffer spring 34 to move, and the buffer spring 34 moves. The movement will push the extension rod 35 to move, and the movement of the extension rod 35 will push the anti-slip plate 22 to squeeze the inner wall of the oil and gas well, so that the sealing is firm and the use effect is good. When the bridge plug is sealed and the anti-slip plate 22 is pressed against the inner wall of the oil and gas well, when the protective sleeve 30 is subjected to external pressure, the pressure will be transmitted to the support rod 23 and the reinforcement rod 25. The support rod 23 and the reinforcement rod 25 are convenient for transmitting the pressure to the support seat 24. Since the support rod 23, the reinforcement rod 25 and the support seat 24 are triangular, the triangle is stable, so it is convenient to improve the pressure resistance of the protective sleeve 30, which will improve the firmness of the bridge plug sealing and have a good sealing effect.
