Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of oil drilling devices, in particular to an automatic load-limiting protection device for a hydraulic slip tong head lifting mechanism. Background Art
[0002] A hydraulic slip is a mechanized device for clamping a drill string during tripping operations in oil drilling. The movement of its tong head lifting mechanism is driven by two hydraulic cylinders. The two ends of the hydraulic cylinders are respectively connected to a fixed bracket and a tong head earring through pin shafts. When the hydraulic cylinder extends, the tong head descends and then clamps the pipe string; when the hydraulic cylinder retracts, the tong head rises to release the pipe string.
[0003] During the drilling operation, after the tong head descends in place and clamps the pipe string, the directional control valve that controls the telescopic movement of the hydraulic cylinder immediately switches to the middle position. Since the middle position function of the directional control valve is a non-pressure-relief mode, the two oil cavities of the hydraulic cylinder are in a sealed pressure-holding state; then the elevating elevator is lifted to release the pipe string, and the tong head of the hydraulic slip bears the weight of the entire pipe string. Due to the large weight of the pipe string, the tong head generates a secondary downward displacement driven by the pipe string. This displacement causes the piston rod of the hydraulic cylinder to extend, and the pressure in the rodless cavity instantaneously increases and outputs a large reaction force, resulting in a large support reaction force being borne between the fixed bracket and the tong head earring, causing components such as the fixed bracket, tong head earring, and pin shaft to be frequently damaged and replaced, affecting the normal use of the equipment. Summary of the Utility Model
[0004] The purpose of the utility model is to provide an automatic load-limiting protection device for a hydraulic slip tong head lifting mechanism, which solves the technical problem that the hydraulic cylinder and connecting components of the existing hydraulic slip tong head are easily damaged.

[0021] Further, the piston end of the outer rod head connecting shaft divides the cavity into a rod chamber and a rodless chamber;
[0022] A first oil port communicating with the rod chamber and a second oil port communicating with the rodless chamber are spaced apart on the side wall of the cylinder block. The beneficial effect of this step is to realize the function of the hydraulic cylinder through multiple oil ports.
[0023] Further, a signal interface is provided on the side wall of the cylinder block, and the signal interface is located between the first oil port and the second oil port. The beneficial effect of this step is that signal feedback can be realized through the signal interface.

When this pressure is greater than the pre-tightening force of the disc spring in the piston rod, the total length of the piston rod contracts to give timely buffering, avoiding damage to the parts of the tong head lifting mechanism.

[0039] To better understand the above technical solution, the above technical solution will be described in detail below in conjunction with the specification drawings and specific implementation manners.
[0040] Embodiment:
[0041] As Figure 1 shown, this application discloses an automatic load-limiting protection device for a hydraulic chuck head lifting mechanism, which is used to design an existing hydraulic cylinder. Specifically, a combined disc spring is arranged inside the piston rod to form a buffer structure, which plays a buffering role in case of special situations and avoids easy damage to the hydraulic cylinder and connecting components.
[0042] The specific structure of this application includes:
[0043] Cylinder block 1, inside which there is a cavity 102 with an opening 101 at one end. This cylinder block 1 is an existing cylinder block and will not be elaborated here;
[0044] Outer rod head connecting shaft 2, the piston end of the outer rod head connecting shaft 2 is located inside the cavity 102, this piston end is the right end of the outer rod head connecting shaft 2, and a through channel 201 is provided inside the outer rod head connecting shaft 2 from front to back; As Figure 1 shown, the right end of the outer rod head connecting shaft 2 is the piston end, and the left end is for the free end. The piston end divides the cavity 102 into two cavities, so that the left - right lateral movement of the outer rod head connecting shaft 2 can be completed. Compared with the existing rod heads, in this application, the inside of the outer rod head connecting shaft 2 is opened to form a through channel from left to right, which is convenient for assembling subsequent related components;

[0047] Combined disc spring 5, installed between the inner rod head connecting shaft 4 and the adjusting plug 3; In this application, the adjusting plug 3, the inner rod head connecting shaft 4 and the combined disc spring 5 are combined to form a buffer structure. When the jaw of the hydraulic slip bears the weight of the entire pipe string, the pipe string drives the outer rod head connecting shaft to produce a secondary extension action, the pressure in the cylinder body rises instantaneously and outputs a large reaction force, and the components between the fixed bracket and the jaw earring bear the reaction force. When the reaction force is greater than the pre - tightening force of the combined disc spring, the combined disc spring is compressed and deformed, and the distance between the inner rod head connecting shaft 4 and the adjusting plug 3 is shortened, making the connection between the fixed bracket 15 and the jaw earring 17 become a flexible connection, restricting the further increase of the reaction force and protecting components such as the fixed bracket, the jaw earring, and the pin shaft from damage;

[0051] Specifically, a first stepped stage 202 is provided on the inner wall of the channel 201, and a second stepped stage 203 that cooperates with the first stepped stage 202 is provided on the outer wall of the inner rod head connecting shaft 4; the first and second in the first stepped stage 202 and the second stepped stage 203 are only used for distinction. Specifically, the first stepped stage 202 is a convex table surface protruding inward, and the second stepped stage 203 is a concave surface recessed inward. The functions of the first stepped stage 202 and the second stepped stage 203 are as follows: when the inner rod head connecting shaft 4 and the outer rod head connecting shaft 2 move outward, they move synchronously; when moving inward, relative movement can occur.
[0052] The specific structure of the present application includes:
[0053] A first sealing ring 7, the first sealing ring 7 is sleeved on the piston end of the outer rod head connecting shaft 2, and the outer wall of the first sealing ring 7 cooperates with the inner wall of the cavity 102 to form a seal;
[0054] A second sealing ring 8 is installed on the inner wall of the seal 6, and the second sealing ring 8 contacts the outer wall of the outer rod head connecting shaft 2 to form a seal;
[0055] A third sealing ring 9 is installed on the outer wall of the seal 6, and the third sealing ring 9 contacts the inner wall of the cavity 102 to form a seal. Similarly, the first, second, and third in the present application are only used for distinction and have no special meaning; as Figure 1 shown, the first sealing ring 7 is located on the right side, the second sealing ring 8 is located between the first sealing ring 7 and the third sealing ring 9, and the third sealing ring is located on the left side, so as to ensure sealing; in order to further ensure sealing, the present application can also be provided with components such as a guide ring and a dust ring at corresponding positions.
[0056] Specifically, the piston end of the outer rod head connecting shaft 2 divides the cavity 102 into a rod chamber 10 and a rodless chamber 11;
[0057] A first oil port 12 communicating with the rod chamber 10 and a second oil port 13 communicating with the rodless chamber 11 are spaced apart and provided on the side wall of the cylinder block 1; similarly, the first and second here are only used for distinction. The rod chamber 10 is located on the left side, the rodless chamber 11 is located on the right side, the first oil port 12 is located on the left side, and the second oil port 13 is located on the right side.
[0058] Specifically, a signal interface 14 is provided on the side wall of the cylinder block 1, that is, when the entire rod is fully retracted, a feedback variable signal is output.
[0059] Specifically, a fixed bracket 15 is hinged to the end of the cylinder block 1; a rod head 16 is installed at one end of the inner rod head connecting shaft 4 away from the adjusting plug 3; a clamp head earring 17 is installed on the rod head 16. When this application is in use, it is connected to components such as the fixed bracket 15, the rod head 16, and the clamp head earring 17 to achieve corresponding functions.

[0061] When this application is in use, first assemble it according to the above structure, and at the same time apply a pre-tightening force to the combined disc spring 5, and this pre-tightening force is set as F1; the thrust output by this application as a hydraulic cylinder under the rated working pressure is F2, and the set disc spring pre-tightening force F1 is equal to the output thrust F2 of the hydraulic cylinder; when this application works within the rated working pressure, the combined state remains unchanged, and the total length of the piston rod (outer rod head connecting shaft and inner rod head connecting shaft) remains unchanged; when the clamp head of the hydraulic slip bears the weight of all the pipe strings, the pipe strings drive the piston rod to produce a secondary extension action, the pressure in the hydraulic cylinder instantaneously increases and outputs a large reaction thrust F3, and the components between the fixed bracket and the clamp head earring bear the action of the reaction thrust F3; when the reaction thrust F3 is greater than the disc spring pre-tightening force F1, the combined disc spring is compressed and deformed, the total length of the piston rod is shortened, and a flexible connection is formed between the fixed bracket and the clamp head earring, restricting the further increase of the reaction thrust and protecting components such as the fixed bracket, the clamp head earring, and the pin shaft from damage.
