Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of downhole working tools, in particular to a novel safety joint. Background Art

[0002] Safety joints are indispensable auxiliary tools for underground operations. They can control and reduce the complexity of underground accidents, reduce the workload, shorten the workover cycle, and improve operational efficiency.

[0003] In the process of well repair, the pipe string is often stuck and cannot be pulled out. In order to maximize the removal of the drill pipe and reduce the workload of salvage, a safety joint is set between the salvage tool and the drill pipe, so that when encountering a jam, it can be reversed. The middle part of the safety joint is removed, leaving the lower fish top as the drill pipe buckle. When there is a next step of treatment, the drill pipe can be lowered for buckling, which is convenient for docking construction. However, in the prior art, the reverse buckle safety joint has a serrated type and a square buckle type. The serrated safety joint is a typical reverse buckle safety joint. In order to prevent the joint from being reversed and disengaged midway, the thread cooperation needs to have a certain pre-tightening degree, and it must be tightened with a pipe clamp on the ground, which makes it difficult to disengage and easily causes accidents of disengagement from other weak points of the threaded connection, which is not convenient for disconnecting the pipe string.

[0007] Through the above technical solution, the telescopic rod, the spring and the fixing block cooperate with each other, so that the fixing block can be easily inserted into the fixing slot, thereby facilitating the mutual fixation of the first shell and the second shell.

[0008] Preferably, a sealing ring is sleeved on one end of the outer wall of the connection block close to the first shell.

[0009] Through the above technical solution, a sealing ring is provided, so that after the first shell and the second shell are fixed to each other, they can be easily sealed to prevent liquid from entering the first shell and the second shell through the connection between the first shell and the second shell, and also make the connection between the first shell and the second shell more stable.

[0010] Preferably, the connecting block is matched with the connecting groove, and the fixing block is configured to be in a triangular shape.

[0011] Through the above technical solution, the fixed block is set to a triangular shape, so that the fixed block forms a slope, and the fixed block and the fixed slot are adapted to each other, so that there is also a slope inside the fixed slot, which can make it easier for the fixed block to come out of the fixed slot when the second shell is stuck during underground operations and the first shell is rotated, thereby facilitating the disconnection of the first shell and the second shell.

[0012] Preferably, the outer wall of the lower joint is provided with an external thread, and the inner wall of the upper joint is provided with an internal thread.

[0013] Through the above technical solution, the external thread of the lower joint and the internal thread of the upper joint can facilitate the fixed connection between the entire device and the pipe column.

[0014] The beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0015] 1. By setting a connecting groove and a connecting block, the connecting block can be snapped into the inside of the connecting groove, and a fixed slot is set inside the connecting groove, and an empty slot, a telescopic rod, a spring and a fixed block are set on the outer wall of the connecting block, so that the telescopic rod and the spring can easily drive the fixed block to extend and retract up and down, so that the fixed block can be easily snapped into the fixed slot, so that the first shell and the second shell can be fixedly connected.

[0016] 2. By setting the fixing block to be in a triangular shape, a slope is formed on one side of the fixing block, and the fixing block and the fixing slot are adapted to each other, so that a slope is also formed inside the fixing slot. Therefore, through the interaction between the telescopic rod and the spring, when the first shell is rotated, the fixing block can be rotated out of the fixing slot, thereby facilitating the disconnection of the first shell and the second shell, thereby facilitating the disconnection of the pipe column.

[0017] 3. The sealing ring can make the first shell and the second shell more stable when fixed, and can also prevent liquid from entering the first shell and the second shell from the connection between the first shell and the second shell. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

Example 2

[0025] In this embodiment, refer to Figure 1-Figure 4On the basis of Example 1, a sealing ring 13 is sleeved on the outer wall of the connecting block 12 close to one end of the first shell 1. By providing the sealing ring 13, after the first shell 1 and the second shell 2 are fixed to each other, the sealing ring 13 can conveniently perform a waterproof seal on the connection between the first shell 1 and the second shell 2 to prevent liquid from entering the first shell 1 and the second shell 2 through the connection between the first shell 1 and the second shell 2, and can also make the connection between the first shell 1 and the second shell 2 more stable. The connecting block 12 is adapted to the connecting groove 22, and the fixing block 14 is set to a triangular shape, so that the fixing block 14 is set to a triangular shape, so that a slope is formed on one side of the fixing block 14, and the fixing block 14 and the fixing groove 23 are adapted to each other, so that there is also a slope corresponding to the fixing block 14 inside the fixing groove 23, so that when the pipe string is stuck during downhole work, the first shell 1 can also be rotated, and the fixing block 14 comes out from the inside of the fixing groove 23, so as to facilitate the disconnection of the first shell 1 and the second shell 2, so as to facilitate salvage; the outer wall of the lower joint 21 is set to an external thread, and the inner wall of the upper joint 11 is provided with an internal thread, and the external thread of the lower joint 21 and the internal thread of the upper joint 11 can facilitate the fixed connection of the equipment as a whole with the pipe string.
