[0002] Directional drilling technology is one of the most advanced drilling technologies in the field of oil exploration and development in the world today. It is a drilling technology that uses special downhole tools, measuring instruments and process technologies to effectively control the wellbore trajectory, so that the drill bit can drill in a specific direction to reach the predetermined underground target. In order to ensure that the while-drilling measurement instrument is centered and avoid affecting the accuracy of the measurement, the measuring instrument needs to be assisted by a straightening device.

[0003] At present, when using a righting device, there is a lack of a righting range adjustment mechanism.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0029] In order to make the technical means, creative features, objectives and effects achieved by the present invention easy to understand, the present invention is further described below in conjunction with specific implementation methods.

[0030] In order to adjust the position of the straightening mechanism according to the actual internal space environment of the directional well, so as to adapt to different working environments and usage requirements, such as Figure 1-3 As shown, the utility model discloses a directional well drilling measurement instrument straightening device, comprising a central shaft 1, a sliding frame 2 and a top plate assembly 3, wherein the sliding frame 2 is sleeved on the periphery of the central shaft 1, one end of the central shaft 1 is connected to the top plate assembly 3 by bolts, and the other end of the central shaft 1 is connected to the bottom plate 4 by bolts, and both sides of the sliding frame 2 are slidably connected to the straightening assembly 5;

[0031] Sliding grooves 201 are provided on both sides of the sliding frame 2, and the sliding grooves 201 are slidably connected to the straightening component 5. An inflatable cushion 202 is glued to the inner side of the straightening component 5 in the sliding groove 201, and a return spring 203 is provided on the outer periphery of the straightening component 5 in the sliding groove 201.

[0032] When in use, the sliding groove 201, the inflatable cushion 202 and the return spring 203 can utilize deformation and elastic force to assist in controlling and adjusting the use position of the straightening assembly 5, thereby adapting to different internal environments of directional wells and improving the flexibility of use and the stability of straightening.

[0033] In order to improve the flexibility and stability of the measuring instrument installation, for example, Figure 1 , Figure 3 As shown, the utility model also includes that the top plate assembly 3 includes a top plate 301, and the central axis 1 is connected to the top plate 301 by bolts, and the two sides of the top plate 301 are slidably connected with extension plates 302, and a slideway 303 is opened on the inner side of the top plate 301, and a slider 304 is slidably connected in the slideway 303, and the slider 304 is connected to the extension plate 302 by bolts, and an air cushion strip 305 is connected to the outer side of the slider 304 in the slideway 303 by gluing.

[0034] When in use, the deformation caused by the inflation of the air cushion strip 305 can push the slider 304 and the extension plate 302 to slide inward, thereby adapting to different sizes of measuring instruments and improving the flexibility of fixed installation. Both sides of the top plate 301 are threadedly connected to the second air nozzle through reserved grooves.

[0035] For example, Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, the utility model also includes that a guide groove 204 is opened in the sliding frame 2, and the guide groove 204 is connected to the air inlet end of the inflatable cushion 202 through a hose, and the outer surface of the sliding frame 2 is threadedly connected to an air nozzle 6 through a reserved groove, and the air outlet end of the air nozzle 6 is connected to the guide groove 204.

[0036] When in use, the guide groove 204 and the air nozzle 6 facilitate connection to an external air pump device to inflate and deflate the inflatable cushion 202 .

[0037] For example, Figure 3 As shown, the utility model further includes that the top of the extension plate 302 is connected to the limiting plate 306 by welding.

[0038] When in use, the limiting plate 306 is used to conveniently clamp the while-drilling measurement instrument and perform auxiliary limiting processing on it.

[0039] For example, Figure 4As shown, the utility model also includes that the straightening assembly 5 includes a telescopic sleeve 501, one side of the telescopic sleeve 501 is sleeved and connected to the telescopic rod 502, one end of the telescopic rod 502 is connected to the rotating seat 503 by welding, and one side of the rotating seat 503 is rotatably connected to the roller 504 via a rotating shaft.

[0040] When in use, the telescopic sleeve 501 and the telescopic rod 502 are connected by sleeves, so that the telescopic sleeve 501 and the telescopic rod 502 can be slidably displaced in the directional well to perform a straightening action.

[0041] For example, Figure 4 As shown, the utility model also includes that a shock absorbing spring 505 is installed on the inner side of the telescopic rod 502 in the telescopic sleeve 501 through a spring seat.

[0042] When in use, the shock absorbing spring 505 is used to improve the working stability of the straightening assembly 5 .

[0043] For example, Figure 1 As shown, the utility model also includes that compression springs 7 are sleeved on the top and bottom of the sliding frame 2 on the periphery of the central shaft 1 .

[0044] When in use, the spring 7 is compressed to improve the stability of the sliding frame 2 .

[0045] When the utility model is used, the operator first places the drilling measurement instrument on the top plate 301, connects the external air pump device through the second air nozzle, inflates the air cushion strip 305, and uses the deformation caused by the inflation of the air cushion strip 305 to push the slider 304 and the extension plate 302 to slide quickly inward, so that the measuring instrument is clamped by the limit plate 306 for rapid limit processing, and then the measuring instrument is fixedly connected to the top plate 301, which can not only improve the stability of the installation operation, but also adjust the use range of the top plate assembly 3 according to the actual size of the measuring instrument, making the use more flexible and reliable;

[0046] Then, according to the actual size of the directional well, the air nozzle 6 is connected to the external air pump equipment, and the inflatable cushion 202 is inflated by the air pump. The deformation caused by the inflation of the inflatable cushion 202 is used to push the telescopic sleeve 501 to slide outward. When the inflatable cushion 202 is deflated, the elastic force of the return spring 203 can be used to push the telescopic sleeve 501 back into the sliding groove 201. The above operation can adjust the use position and range of the straightening component 5, which can not only increase the flexibility of the device, but also improve the straightening effect for different directional well working environments.
