[0036] The embodiments of the present utility model are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Example

[0037] See also Figure 1-Figure 3 A universal shaft housing with an adjustable wellhead angle comprises a stator joint 1, a double male joint 2, an adjustment joint 3, an adjustment joint 4 and a drive ring 5. Specifically, the stator joint 1, the double male joint 2, the adjustment joint 3 and the adjustment joint 4 are all rotatable structures, and the interiors of the four parts are all circular hollow structures.

[0038] Among them, one end of the stator joint 1 is rotatably connected to one end of the adjustment section 3, and the other end of the adjustment section 3 is rotatably connected to one end of the adjustment joint 4. In addition, one end of the double male joint 2 is located inside the stator joint 1, the middle part of the double male joint 2 is located inside the adjustment section 3, and the other end of the double male joint 2 is located inside the adjustment joint 4.

[0039] In addition, there are gaps between the outer wall of the double male joint 2 and the inner wall of the stator joint 1 , the inner wall of the adjustment joint 3 , and the inner wall of the adjustment joint 4 .

[0040] The driving ring 5 is located inside the adjusting section 3, and between the adjusting section 3 and the double male connector 2. The driving ring 5 is an arc-shaped structure, and the thickness of one end of the driving ring 5 is smaller than the thickness of the other end. When the axis of the double male connector 2 coincides with the axis of the adjusting section 3, the outer surface of the double male connector 2 contacts the middle of the driving ring 5.

[0041] In this embodiment, firstly, the two ends of the adjustment section 3 are rotatably connected to the stator joint 1 and the adjustment joint 4, and then the double male joint 2 is arranged inside the stator joint 1, the adjustment section 3 and the adjustment joint 4. By means of the driving ring 5 arranged inside the adjustment section 3, the double male joint 2 is driven to swing perpendicularly to its axis inside the adjustment section 3, thereby realizing the angle adjustment of the double male joint 2.

[0042] In the present technical solution, the angle adjustment is achieved by squeezing the double male connector 2 through the inconsistent thickness at both ends of the driving ring 5, which has the advantage of a smooth adjustment process.

[0043] In one specific embodiment:

[0044] The inner diameter of the double male connector 2 is smaller than that of the stator connector 1 . An arc-shaped guide groove 6 is provided on both sides of the stator connector 1 . A guide column 7 is provided on both sides of the double male connector 2 . The two guide columns 7 are slidably fitted in the two guide grooves 6 .

[0045] Preferably, the length direction of the guide post 7 is perpendicular to the axis of the double male connector 2, and the length directions of the two guide posts 7 are in the same straight line. In addition, the ends of the two guide posts 7 away from the double male connector 2 are both hemispherical structures, and the ends of the guide posts 7 with hemispherical structures are in sliding contact with the inner wall of the guide groove 6.

[0046] In this embodiment, by providing two guide grooves 6 and providing a guide post 7 on both sides of the double male connector 2, the movement direction of the double male connector 2 can be limited so that it can only deflect but not rotate. In addition, the hemispherical structure of the end of the guide post 7 is conducive to the sliding of the end of the guide post 7 in the guide groove 6.

[0047] In another specific embodiment:

[0048] The middle of the double male connector 2 has an annular positioning ring 8, and the outer periphery of the positioning ring 8 is in sliding contact with the inner wall of the adjustment section 3. Preferably, the cross section of the positioning ring 8 is U-shaped, and the arc-shaped side of the positioning ring 8 is in contact with the inner wall of the adjustment section 3.

[0049] In this embodiment, by providing a positioning ring 8, the deflected axis of the double male connector 2 is fixed at the positioning ring 8, thereby facilitating the determination of the curvature and radius of the guide groove 6.

[0050] In another specific embodiment:

[0051] A limiting groove is also provided in the middle of the outer side of the double male joint 2, in which a ball 9 is movably provided, and the ball 9 contacts the inner wall of the driving ring 5. When the axis of the adjusting section 3 is colinear with the axis of the double male joint 2, the ball 9 contacts the middle of the driving ring 5.

[0052] Preferably, the driving ring 5 is arc-shaped, and the central angle of the driving ring 5 is less than 180°. Two limit grooves are symmetrically arranged on the double male connector 2, and a ball 9 is movably arranged in each of the two limit grooves. At the same time, two driving rings 5 ​​are mirror-symmetrically arranged in the adjustment section 3, and the two driving rings 5 ​​are in contact with the two balls 9 respectively.

[0053] In this embodiment, by providing the ball bearings 9, when adjusting the angle of the double male joint 2, the sliding friction between the drive ring 5 and the double male joint 2 can be changed to rolling friction, thereby reducing the force required when rotating the adjustment section 3. In addition, by symmetrically providing two ball bearings 9 and two drive rings 5, the double male joint 2 can be clamped between the two drive rings 5, and the thickness difference at both ends of the drive ring 5 can be used to achieve stable adjustment of the deflection angle of the double male joint 2.

[0054] Generally, the thickness of the driving ring 5 increases or decreases linearly from one end to the other end.

[0055] In addition, in order to ensure that the two driving rings 5 ​​can smoothly drive the double male connector 2 to rotate after the guide pillars 7 and the guide grooves 6 are set, the two limit grooves and the two guide pillars 7 are respectively located in four mutually perpendicular directions of the double male connector 2.

[0056] In another specific embodiment:

[0057] The outer wall of the adjustment section 3 and the outer wall of the adjustment joint 4 are both provided with scales, and the scales are universally set, and when the adjustment section 3 is rotated, the deflection angle of the double male joint 2 can be easily understood.

[0058] The above-mentioned embodiments only express the specific implementation methods of the utility model, and the description is relatively specific and detailed, but it cannot be understood as limiting the scope of the patent of the utility model. It should be pointed out that for ordinary technicians in this field, several modifications and improvements can be made without departing from the concept of the utility model, which all belong to the protection scope of the utility model.
