Before drilling, the casing and sleeve need to be lowered from the drilling rig platform until they are stably supported on the seabed; however, compared with the water depth and drilling depth, the total length of the drill pipe during drilling is too large, and the verticality of the drill pipe cannot be maintained, which inevitably leads to the bending of the drill pipe, causing collision and vibration with the casing and sleeve, and when docking or pulling the drill pipe, there is a large deviation from the docking position of the active drill pipe, which requires manual correction. In this way, the life of the drilling equipment and the operating efficiency will be greatly affected. Utility Model Content

[0019] The technical solution of the utility model will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are 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. The described embodiments only serve as an explanation and should not limit the utility model.

[0020] like Figure 1-5As shown, a drill pipe attitude maintaining system for deep-sea offshore wind power exploration comprises a drill pipe 1, a casing sleeve 3, a drill pipe docking correction device 2 and a drill pipe drilling attitude maintaining device 4, wherein the drill pipe docking correction device 2 comprises a stepped shaft plugged into the casing sleeve 3, the axis center is provided with a socket 23 for inserting and cooperating with the drill pipe 1, the drill pipe drilling attitude maintaining device 4 comprises a disc 41 inserted into the casing sleeve 3, the center of the disc 41 is provided with an inner hole 42 capable of inserting and cooperating with the drill pipe 1, a plurality of receiving grooves 43 are radially provided on the outer side of the disc 41, a ball 44 is placed in the receiving groove 43 and the ball 44 can roll in the receiving groove 43, and the outer side of the ball 44 is exposed to always contact with the wall of the casing sleeve 3.

[0021] The drill rod 1 can be a drill rod or an active drill rod. The outer wall of the drill rod 1 is provided with a thread that matches the inner hole 42 of the disc.

[0022] The drill rod docking correction device 2 can improve the efficiency of drill rod docking. The drill rod drilling posture maintaining device 4 is used to connect the active drill rod or the adjacent drill rod, which can effectively prevent the collision between the active drill rod and the casing during drilling and slow down the bending speed of the drill rod, thereby improving the service life of the equipment. This system is suitable for deep water and deep hole drilling conditions in deep sea offshore wind power surveys.

[0023] As an optional embodiment, the stepped shaft is composed of a large shaft 21 having a diameter larger than the outer diameter of the casing sleeve 3 and a small shaft 22 having a clearance fit with the casing sleeve 3, and has a T-shaped cross section. Specifically, the diameter of the large shaft 21 is the same as the outer diameter of the casing sleeve 3.

[0024] As an optional embodiment, the insertion hole 23 is provided with threads and is threadedly connected to the drill rod 1 .

[0025] As an optional embodiment, the stepped shaft is in the form of two butt-jointed pieces, which are naturally squeezed tight under the action of their own weight, thereby ensuring flexible disassembly during actual use without increasing the number of operating steps and time.

[0026] As an optional embodiment, the inner hole 42 is provided with threads and is threadedly connected to the drill rod 1 .

[0027] As an optional embodiment, the receiving grooves 43 are evenly distributed along the circumference of the disc, and the number is not limited. Specifically, 8 receiving grooves 43 are arranged at equal intervals. The size of the receiving groove 43 is designed to ensure that the radial size allows the outer side of the ball 44 to always contact the wall of the casing sleeve 3, that is, the distance between the outer side of the ball 44 and the center of the disc 41 is greater than the outer diameter of the disc 41, so as to reduce the wear of the drill rod 1 on the casing sleeve 3 during the drilling process and ensure smooth drilling. The radius of the receiving groove 43 is slightly different from the radius of the ball 44, ensuring that after the device enters the soil layer, the gap between the two will not be blocked by soil.

[0028] The working process of the utility model is as follows: after the casing 3 is lowered, the drill rod drilling posture maintaining device 4 is fixed to the middle part of the drill rod 1 by means of threads and is sent into the casing 3; when the total length of the drill rod after docking reaches the drilling depth requirement, the drill rod docking correction device 2 is plugged into the top of the casing 3, and the active drill rod or drill rod which is also equipped with the drill rod docking correction device 2 is docked with the drill rod and tightened.

[0029] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention.
