Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of cementing tools, in particular to a rotary floating shoe with an anti-falling function. Background Art

[0002] The rotary float shoe is an important tool used in the cementing process of oil and gas wells. Its main structure includes a buoyancy body and a swivel joint, which can rotate in the wellbore as the drill bit rotates. The original intention of the design of the rotary float shoe is to reduce the weight of the drill bit through its buoyancy characteristics, making it easier to move in the wellbore. In addition, the rotation function allows the drill bit to operate more smoothly in the wellbore, effectively preventing the occurrence of drill bit sticking. The rotary float shoe is usually made of high-strength materials and can withstand the high pressure and high temperature conditions of the complex environment downhole.

[0003] In cementing work, the rotating float shoe plays a vital role. First, it reduces the load of the drill tool through buoyancy, making the drill tool have a better suspension effect in the mud, thereby improving the efficiency of drilling. Secondly, the rotation function can make the drill tool distribute the mud more evenly in the wellbore, which helps to form a more complete and firm cement ring, avoiding mud channels and cement ring defects during the cementing process. In addition, the rotating float shoe can effectively reduce the friction between the drill tool and the well wall, reduce the wear of the drill tool and the damage of the wellbore, and extend the service life of the equipment.

[0004] Although rotary float shoes play an important role in cementing work, existing rotary float shoes generally have a significant problem, that is, they lack an effective anti-falling function. In actual operation, due to the complex downhole environment, the float shoe may be affected by factors such as mud flow and wellbore pressure changes during the rotation process, resulting in a loose connection between the float shoe and the drill bit, or even falling off. This will not only affect the smooth progress of cementing work, but may also cause serious consequences such as wellbore blockage and equipment damage. The current design of rotary float shoes lacks effective measures to prevent falling off, and often relies on manual tightening and regular inspections, which not only increases the difficulty of operation, but also cannot completely avoid the risk of falling off. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a new type of rotary float shoe with an anti-falling function to ensure the safety and efficiency of cementing work. Utility Model Content

[0026] Specifically, the guide cap 1 is fixed to prevent the guide cap 1 from falling off from the entire device during use. During installation, the guide cap 1 is first fixed to the limiting groove 8, and the fixing rod 2 is first inserted into the rotating bearing 4, and the rotating bearing 4 is fixed on the guide cap 1 through the fixing cap 3, and then the limiting groove 8 of the rotating bearing 4 is installed facing the guide column 9. At this time, since the fixing block 11 has a slight slope, the fixing block 11 moves inside. When the rotating bearing 4 completely enters the fixed sleeve 6, the fixing block 11 pops up again under the action of the first spring 13 to fix the rotating bearing 4. At the same time, the sealing strip 5 and the sealing sheet 7 are provided to keep the entire device sealed. After the above operations, the guide cap 1 is fixed to ensure that the guide cap 1 does not fall off during use.

[0027] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 4 , Figure 5The lower surface of the fixed sleeve 6 is fixedly connected to a first connecting plate 17, the lower surface of the first connecting plate 17 is fixedly connected to an elastic column 15, the lower surface of the elastic column 15 is fixedly connected to a second connecting plate 20, the lower surface of the first connecting plate 17 is fixedly connected to a support rod 18, the outer wall of the support rod 18 is sleeved with a second spring 19, one end of the second spring 19 is fixedly connected to the lower surface of the first connecting plate 17, the other end of the second spring 19 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the second connecting plate 20, and the outer wall of the support rod 18 is slidably connected to the inside of the second connecting plate 20.

[0028] Specifically, a second spring 19 is provided, and the first connecting plate 17 is connected to the second connecting plate 20 through a support rod 18. When subjected to pressure, the first connecting plate 17 will be pressed downward. At this time, since the second connecting plate 20 is fixed to the connecting column 16, the second spring 19 will absorb elastic potential energy, thereby reducing the pressure on the guide cap 1, completing the decompression, and improving the service life of the device.

[0029] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 5 The upper surface of the second connecting plate 20 is fixedly connected with the first connecting sleeve 21, and the first connecting sleeve 21 is slidably connected with the connecting block 27.

[0030] Specifically, when the device is normally stationary, the second spring 19 will be compressed under the influence of its own gravity. If the device is in this state for a long time, it will cause a certain degree of damage to the second spring 19. Therefore, a first connecting sleeve 21 and a second connecting sleeve 26 are provided. They are connected by three connecting strips 24 and fixed in the middle by a rotating block 25. A limiting rod 22 is provided inside the first connecting sleeve 21 to guide the displacement of the connecting block 27. At the same time, a third spring 23 is provided. The above structure can support the first connecting plate 17. Through this structural combination, the service life of the second spring 19 is increased, and at the same time, to a certain extent, the second spring 19 is assisted to complete elastic contraction.

[0031] Working principle: by fixing the guide cap 1, the guide cap 1 is prevented from falling off from the device as a whole during use. During installation, the guide cap 1 is first fixed with the limiting groove 8, and the fixing rod 2 is first inserted into the rotating bearing 4, and then the rotating bearing 4 is fixed on the guide cap 1 through the fixing cap 3, and then the limiting groove 8 of the rotating bearing 4 is installed against the guide column 9. At this time, due to a slight slope of the fixing block 11, the fixing block 11 moves inside. When the rotating bearing 4 completely enters the interior of the fixing sleeve 6, the fixing block 11 pops up again under the action of the first spring 13 to fix the rotating bearing 4. At the same time, a sealing strip 5 and a sealing sheet 7 are provided to maintain the sealing of the device as a whole. After the above operation, the guide cap 1 is fixed to ensure that the guide cap 1 does not fall off during use. A second spring 19 is provided to connect the first connecting plate 17 with the second connecting plate 20 through the support rod 18. When the fixing block 11 is fixed, the fixing block 11 moves inside the fixing block 11. When the fixing block 11 is fixed, the fixing block 11 moves inside the fixing sleeve 6. When the rotating bearing 4 completely enters the interior of the fixing sleeve 6, the fixing block 11 pops up again under the action of the first spring 13 to fix the rotating bearing 4. At the same time, a sealing strip 5 and a sealing sheet 7 are provided to maintain the sealing of the device as a whole. After the above operation, the guide cap 1 is fixed to ensure that the guide cap 1 does not fall off during use. A second spring 19 is provided to connect the first connecting plate 17 with the second connecting plate 20 through the support rod 18. When the pressure is reached, the first connecting plate 17 will be pressed down. At this time, since the second connecting plate 20 is fixed to the connecting column 16, the second spring 19 will absorb the elastic potential energy, thereby reducing the pressure on the guide cap 1, completing the decompression and improving the service life of the device. When the device is normally stationary, the second spring 19 will be compressed under the influence of its own gravity. Being in this state for a long time will cause a certain degree of damage to the second spring 19. Therefore, a first connecting sleeve 21 and a second connecting sleeve 26 are provided. They are connected by three connecting strips 24 and fixed in the middle by a rotating block 25. A limiting rod 22 is provided inside the first connecting sleeve 21 to guide the displacement of the connecting block 27. At the same time, a third spring 23 is provided. The above structure can support the first connecting plate 17. Through this structural combination, the service life of the second spring 19 is improved, and at the same time, to a certain extent, the second spring 19 is assisted to complete elastic contraction.
