The appearance of this phrase in various positions in the specification does not necessarily refer to the same embodiment, nor is it an independent or alternative embodiment mutually exclusive with other embodiments. Those skilled in the art explicitly and implicitly understand that the embodiments described herein can be combined with other embodiments.
[0043] Please refer to Figures 1-8 , this utility model provides a wellhead cable quick matching device. When the wellhead cable quick matching device is actually applied, it is used to connect the downhole cable and the surface cable to realize the communication process between the surface equipment and the downhole equipment. It includes: a fixing mechanism 1, which is connected to the wellhead; a first connection mechanism 2, which is connected to the downhole cable; a second connection mechanism 3, which is connected to the surface cable; the first connection mechanism 2 and the second connection mechanism 3 are connected through the fixing mechanism 1. It should be noted here that in this utility model, the "axial direction" refers to the direction where the rotation center axis of the second connection mechanism 3 is located, that is, the direction common with the central axis, and the "radial direction" is perpendicular to the axial direction.
[0044] Furthermore, the fixing mechanism 1 is a part for detachably connecting the surface cable and the downhole cable, and it includes: a fixing member 11, and a first connection channel 12 and a second connection channel 13 arranged in the fixing member 11. In one embodiment, the fixing member 11 can be connected to the equipment at the wellhead, so as to arrange the fixing mechanism 1 at the wellhead.
[0045] In some embodiments, the first connection channel 12 is vertically arranged in the fixing member 11, the second connection channel 13 is horizontally arranged in the fixing member 11 and is connected to the first connection channel 12; wherein, the first connection channel 12 is connected to the first connection mechanism 2, and the second connection channel 12 is connected to the second connection mechanism 3, so as to connect the first connection mechanism 2 and the second connection mechanism 3 at the connection of the first connection channel 12 and the second connection channel 13, so as to realize the connection process of the surface cable and the downhole cable.
[0046] Further, the first connection mechanism 2 is the part for connecting the downhole cable to the wellhead, and it includes: a first connector 21, a third connection channel 22 provided in the first connector 21, and a cable fixing member 23; wherein, the first connector 21 is connected to the fixing member 11, and the cable fixing member 23 is connected to the downhole cable, thereby connecting the downhole cable to the wellhead.
[0047] In one embodiment, the top of the first connector 21 is a fishing part 211 that is wider at the top and narrower at the bottom. By designing the fishing part 211 as a funnel shape that is wider at the top and narrower at the bottom, on the one hand, the fishing part 211 is fixed to the top of the fixing member 11; on the other hand, the operator can also use fishing equipment to take out the first connection mechanism 2 from the fixing mechanism 1, repair and maintain the first connection mechanism 2, or install the first connection mechanism 2 in the fixing mechanism 1.
[0048] Further, the first connector 21 is a cylindrical structure, and a guiding slideway 212 adapted to the fixing member 11 is provided on its outer periphery. In one embodiment, a guiding member 111 is provided on the inner wall of the fixing member 11, and the guiding member 111 cooperates with the guiding slideway 212 to turn the first connector 11 to a preset orientation, so as to facilitate the subsequent docking of the first connection mechanism 2 and the second connection mechanism 3. The specific docking process will be further described below.
[0049] Further, the guiding slideway 212 includes an inclined guiding section 2121 and a downward moving section 2122 connected to the guiding section 2121 and arranged vertically; wherein, after the guiding section 2121 abuts against the guiding member 111, it is used to guide the first connector 11 to turn to a preset direction, and after the downward moving section 2122 abuts against the guiding member 111, it is used to guide the first connector 21 to slide down to a preset position. In one embodiment, the guiding member 111 is a guiding pin. After the guiding pin abuts against the guiding section 2121, under the action of the self - gravity of the first connector 21, the first connector 21 will turn along the setting direction of the guiding section 2121 until the guiding pin slides into the downward moving section 2122, so that the first connector 21 slides into the fixing member 11 along a preset direction; by presetting the length of the downward moving section 2122, the first connector 21 is slid down to a preset position in the fixing member 11.
[0050] In one embodiment, the guiding slideway 212 is a vertically arranged inverted Y - shaped structure. It can be understood that by setting the tops of the two guiding sections 2121 to be close to each other, after any section of the guiding slideway 212 abuts against the guiding pin, the guiding pin can finally slide into the downward moving section 2122, thereby ensuring that the first connector 21 can always slide into the fixing member 11 in a preset direction, and thus ensuring the accuracy when the first connection mechanism 2 and the second connection mechanism 3 are docked with each other.
[0051] In one embodiment, the guiding section 2121 is helical. By setting the guiding section 2121 to be helical, the first connector 21 can turn more smoothly.
[0052] Further, the third connection channel 22 is an L-shaped structure for accommodating downhole cables and pulling the downhole cables to the wellhead. In one embodiment, a plurality of electrode heads 221 are provided in the third connection channel 22. The electrode heads 221 are L-shaped structures adapted to the third connection channel 221. The vertically arranged part thereof is connected to the downhole cable, and the horizontally arranged part thereof is connected to the second connection mechanism 3, thereby realizing the detachable connection process between the first connection mechanism 2 and the second connection mechanism 3.
[0053] In one embodiment, the cable fixing member 23 is connected to one end of the downhole cable, thereby connecting the downhole cable to the wellhead and fixing it in the third connection channel 22.
[0054] Further, the first connection mechanism 2 further includes: a first telescopic cylinder 24 and a second telescopic cylinder 25; wherein, both the first telescopic cylinder 24 and the second telescopic cylinder 25 are hollow structures. The downhole cable sequentially passes through the hollow parts of the first telescopic cylinder 24 and the second telescopic cylinder 25 and then is connected to downhole equipment. Moreover, the first telescopic cylinder 24 and the second telescopic cylinder 25 have certain stiffness and hardness, which can effectively avoid mechanical collision damage to the downhole cable, thereby playing a certain protective role.
[0055] In one embodiment, one end of the first telescopic cylinder 24 is connected to the fixing member 11 through a fixing pin, thereby fixing the first telescopic cylinder 24 in the fixing mechanism 1. In one embodiment, the end of the first telescopic cylinder 24 far from the cable fixing member 22 is connected to the second telescopic cylinder 25. By movably connecting the first telescopic cylinder 24 and the second telescopic cylinder 25, by adjusting the position of the second telescopic cylinder 25, an operating space is reserved for connecting the downhole cable, thereby enhancing the practicability.
[0056] Further, the mutually connected ends of the first telescopic cylinder 24 and the second telescopic cylinder 25 are snap-fit structures, enabling the second telescopic cylinder 25 to slide along the first telescopic cylinder 24, thereby realizing the telescopic process after the first telescopic cylinder 24 and the second telescopic cylinder 25 are connected. In one embodiment, by making the mutually connected ends of the first telescopic cylinder 24 and the second telescopic cylinder 25 be snap-fit structures, the first telescopic cylinder 24 and the second telescopic cylinder 25 can realize the telescopic process after being connected, but will not separate.
[0057] In one embodiment, a connection hole 241 is formed in the first telescopic cylinder 24, and a fixing pin 251 adapted to the connection hole 241 is formed in the second telescopic cylinder 25. An operator can lock the first telescopic cylinder 24 and the second telescopic cylinder 25 to each other by connecting the fixing pin 251 with the connection hole 241.
[0058] Further, the second connecting mechanism 3 is a part for connecting an on-well cable to the wellhead. By connecting the second connecting mechanism 3 to the second connecting mechanism 3 in the fixing mechanism 1, the communication process between the on-well equipment and the down-hole equipment is realized. Among them, the second connecting mechanism 3 is of a cylindrical structure, and the second connecting mechanism 3 can be connected to the first connecting mechanism 2 in the fixing member 11 by inserting the second connecting mechanism 3 into the second connecting channel 13.
[0059] In some embodiments, a sector-shaped anti-twist groove 222 is formed in the third connecting channel 22, and an anti-twist key 31 adapted to the anti-twist groove 222 is formed on the outer periphery of the second connecting mechanism 3. The anti-twist key 31 and the anti-twist groove 222 cooperate with each other to radially lock the second connecting mechanism 3 in the second connecting channel 13. On the one hand, it prevents the second connecting mechanism 3 from freely rotating in the second connecting channel 13, and on the other hand, it can also realize the positioning of the second connecting mechanism 3 in the second connecting channel 13.
[0060] In some embodiments, a plurality of fourth connecting channels 32 adapted to the electrode heads 221 are formed in the second connecting mechanism 3. A connecting ring 2211 is provided at one end of the electrode head 221 connected to the second connecting mechanism 3. An elastic contact piece 321 adapted to the electrode head 221 is provided in the fourth connecting channel 32. By providing the elastic contact piece 321 in the connecting channel 32, when the second connecting mechanism 3 is inserted into the electrode head 221, the connecting ring 2211 first enters the fourth connecting channel 32, and then contacts the elastic contact piece 321 to cause the elastic contact piece 321 to be compressed and deformed and then continue to move forward. Finally, after the connecting ring 2211 passes through the elastic contact piece 321, the elastic contact piece 321 will limit the connecting ring 2211 after restoring the deformation, so as to axially lock the second connecting mechanism 3 in the second connecting channel 13 by using the electrode head 221, thereby realizing the automatic and rapid locking function after the first connecting mechanism 2 and the second connecting mechanism 3 are connected.
[0061] Finally, it should be noted that: What is disclosed in the embodiments of the present utility model is only the preferred embodiments of the present utility model, which are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present utility model, rather than limiting it; Although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those of ordinary skill in the art should understand that: They can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or perform equivalent replacements on some of the technical features; And these modifications or replacements do not make the essence of the corresponding technical solutions deviate from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the various embodiments of the present utility model.
