Detailed implementation manners
[0022] It should be noted that, without conflict, the embodiments in this application and the features in the embodiments can be combined with each other. The following will refer to the drawings and combine with the embodiments to detail the present utility model.
[0023] The hydraulic eccentric variable-diameter stabilizer of the technical solution of the present utility model is used in cooperation with a fishing tool or a milling tool, such as Figure 1As shown in the figure, it includes a main body 10, a piston rod 20, a support arm mechanism 30 and a reset mechanism 40. The upper end of the main body 10 is detachably connected to the drill tool, and the lower end of the main body 10 is detachably connected to a fishing tool or a milling tool. Inside the main body 10, a fluid passage 11 is arranged along its length direction, and a side branch passage 12 that vertically penetrates the fluid passage 11. The fluid passage 11 connects the drill tool with the fishing tool or the milling tool. The piston rod 20 is movably arranged in the side branch passage 12 along the axial direction of the side branch passage 12, and one end of the piston rod 20 extends to the outside of the side branch passage 12. The first end of the support arm mechanism 30 of the support arm mechanism 30 is hinged to the side wall of the main body 10, and the second end of the support arm mechanism 30 is a free end. The reset mechanism 40 is arranged on the side wall of the main body 10 and corresponds to the first end of the support arm mechanism 30. The support arm mechanism 30 is parallel to the outer side wall of the main body 10 in the initial state. The piston rod 20 is used to move outward along the axial direction of the side branch passage 12 under the action of the fluid pressure inside the fluid passage 11 to jack up the support arm mechanism 30 so that the second end of the support arm mechanism 30 abuts against the well wall. The reset mechanism 40 is used to act on the support arm mechanism 30 when the fluid pressure inside the fluid passage 11 terminates so that the support arm mechanism 30 returns to the initial state. Thus, when the upper casing of the well depth structure in the oil and gas well is small and the lower casing size is large, resulting in the inability of the internal fishing and external fishing tools to smoothly enter the fish top, or during the milling process, the downhole debris is close to the well wall, and there is a skin left between the milling tool and the well wall, causing problems such as tool jamming and sticking. The support arm mechanism 30 is pushed open and abuts against the well wall, thereby causing the entire drill tool to deviate from the axis of the wellbore, and then causing the fishing tool or milling tool connected to the lower end of the main body 10 to deviate from the axis of the wellbore and close to the well wall. When the drill tool moves up and down, the fishing tool at the lower end deviates from the center of the wellbore and moves up and down to realize the fishing of the eccentric fish top debris in the well. When the drill tool rotates and is lowered, the milling tool at the lower end is close to the well wall and makes a circular motion around the wellbore, expanding the milling radius of the milling tool to realize the full radial drilling and milling of the fish top of the downhole debris. It solves the problems in the prior art that during the workover fishing process, the internal fishing and external fishing tools cannot smoothly enter the fish top, affecting the fishing effect, and during the milling process of the drilling and milling tools, there will be a skin left between the milling tool and the well wall, and it is easy to have problems such as tool jamming and sticking.
[0024] Optionally, a tapered connection hole is opened at the upper end of the main body 10, and an internal thread structure is arranged on the inner side wall of the connection hole. The upper end of the main body 10 is detachably connected to the drill tool through the internal thread structure. The lower end of the main body 10 is provided with a tapered connection head, and an external thread structure is arranged on the outer side wall of the connection head. The lower end of the main body 10 is detachably connected to the fishing tool or the milling tool through the external thread structure. By arranging the tapered connection hole and the connection head at both ends of the main body 10, it can be conveniently, quickly and stably sealed and connected with the drill tool, the fishing tool or the milling tool, ensuring the convenience of operation and the stability of use.
[0025] Further, a nozzle 13 is provided at the lower end of the body 10. The nozzle 13 is hermetically connected to the lower port of the fluid passage 11 through a gasket 14 and fastened by a nozzle cap 15; the lower end of the fluid passage 11 is hermetically communicated with a fishing tool or a milling tool through the nozzle 13, further ensuring a stable and reliable hermetic connection with the fishing tool or the milling tool.
[0026] Further, the fluid passage 11 includes an axial section 111 and an inclined section 112. The axial section 111 is parallel to the central axis of the body 10 and spaced apart by a preset distance to avoid the piston column 20; one end of the axial section 111 extends to the connection hole at the upper end of the body 10 and is communicated with the drill string; the inclined section 112 is inclined at a preset angle with respect to the central axis of the body 10. One end of the inclined section 112 is communicated with the other end of the axial section 111, and the other end of the inclined section 112 is connected to the nozzle 13 and is communicated with a fishing tool or a milling tool through the nozzle 13.
[0027] Further, as Figure 1 and Figure 2 shown, the piston column 20 includes a first cylinder section 21 and a second cylinder section 22. The diameter of the first cylinder section 21 is larger than that of the second cylinder section 22 to form a stepped shaft structure; a limit ring 23 is provided at the outer port of the branch passage 12; the outer peripheral wall of the first cylinder section 21 is slidably and hermetically abutted against the inner wall of the branch passage 12 and thus moves along the axis of the branch passage 12 under the pressure of the fluid in the branch passage 12; optionally, a plurality of sealing rings 24 are sleeved on the first cylinder section 21, and the first cylinder section 21 is slidably and hermetically abutted against the inner side wall of the branch passage 12 through the plurality of sealing rings 24; the inner diameter of the limit ring 23 matches the outer diameter of the second cylinder section 22, and the second cylinder section 22 slidably passes through the inner hole of the limit ring 23. When the first cylinder section 21 and the second cylinder section 22 move synchronously outward to a certain extent, the first cylinder section 21 is blocked by the limit ring 23, thereby limiting the maximum displacement of the piston column 20; the maximum displacement of the piston column 20 determines the maximum opening angle of the support arm mechanism 30. In practical applications, the maximum displacement of the piston column 20 is designed according to the radial dimension of the wellbore and the maximum opening angle required by the support arm mechanism 30.
[0028] Furthermore, the support arm mechanism 30 includes a support arm 31, a ball seat 32, and a ball 33. The first end of the support arm 31 is hinged to the side wall of the body 10 through a pin shaft; the ball seat 32 is fixedly arranged at the second end of the support arm 31; a spherical ball groove is formed on the side of the ball seat 32, and the ball 33 is freely rotatably installed in the ball groove of the ball seat 32 so as to be able to rotate freely; the inner side wall of the support arm 31 near the first end faces the piston column 20. When the piston column 20 moves outward, the support arm 31 is pushed open, and the ball 33 at the second end of the support arm 31 abuts against the well wall. When the drill tool moves up and down or rotates and is lowered, the ball 33 rolls closely against the well wall, thereby effectively reducing the frictional resistance when the drill tool moves up and down or rotates and is lowered.
[0029] Furthermore, the reset mechanism 40 includes a spring piece 41. The first end of the spring piece 41 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the body 10 through a fastening screw 42. The second end of the spring piece 41 is a free end and presses on the support arm 31; when the support arm 31 is lifted by the piston column 20, the second end of the spring piece 41 is driven to flip outward, and the spring piece 41 undergoes elastic deformation and generates a turning elastic force. When the internal fluid pressure in the fluid passage 11 terminates, the piston column 20 retracts, the support arm 31 loses the support force, and under the action of the elastic force of the spring piece 41, the support arm 31 returns to the initial state.
[0030] Furthermore, a receiving groove is formed on the side wall of the body 10. The depth of the receiving groove matches the radial dimension of the support arm mechanism 30, and the length of the receiving groove matches the length of the support arm mechanism 30; the support arm mechanism 30 is entirely located in the receiving groove in the initial state; thus, the overall shape of the entire body 10 remains consistent, and it can be conveniently placed into the wellbore.
[0031] The above are only the preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not used to limit the present invention. For those skilled in the art, various changes and modifications can be made to the present invention. Any modification, equivalent replacement, improvement, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present invention shall be included within the protection scope of the present invention.
