Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the present utility model, rather than all of the embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments of the present utility model without making creative efforts belong to the scope of protection of the present utility model.
[0024] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 , the present utility model provides a technical solution: an oil well downhole plugging device, including an internal plugging mechanism 100, the internal plugging mechanism 100 includes a valve 110 and a connection component 120, and the valve 110 is installed at the end of the connection component 120; an external plugging mechanism 200, the external plugging mechanism 200 includes an installation component 210 and an expansion component 220, the installation component 210 is fixedly connected to the connection component 120, the expansion component 220 is sleeved outside the installation component 210, the expansion component 220 is arranged corresponding to the inner wall of the oil well, and the valve 110 is used to cut off and connect the connection component 120, so as to enable the expansion component 220 and the installation component 210 to quickly plug the pipeline or the well wall.
[0025] When plugging, after the expansion component 220 is inserted into the pipeline or the well, it is also necessary to fix the installation component 210 to prevent the installation component 210 from shifting and causing sealing failure.
[0026] Please refer to Figure 2, the connection component 120 includes a connecting pipe 121. Upper flanges 122 are fixedly and sealingly connected to the top and bottom of the connecting pipe 121 respectively. The upper flanges 122 facilitate the continuous connection of pipes above the connecting pipe 121 for emergencies. The valve 110 is installed at the upper end of the connecting pipe 121, and the valve 110 is set to different models according to needs.
[0027] Please refer to Figures 2 to 4 , the installation component 210 includes a lower flange 211 and an installation pipe 212. The lower flange 211 is fixedly installed on the upper top of the installation pipe 212. The lower flange 211 and the upper flange 122 at the bottom of the connecting pipe 121 are sealingly connected by bolts. A rubber sealing ring is arranged between the upper flange 122 and the lower flange 211. The installation pipe 212 is used to facilitate the installation of the expansion component 220.
[0028] The expansion component 220 includes an outer protective airbag 221 and an inner airbag 224. The inner airbag 224 is sleeved on the installation pipe 212, and the outer protective airbag 221 is sleeved outside the inner airbag 224. Both ends of the outer protective airbag 221 are limit-connected to the installation pipe 212. An air delivery pipe 225 is communicated with the inner airbag 224, and the air delivery pipe 225 is communicated with the outside. The outer protective airbag 221 is used to prevent sharp protrusions at the well wall or the fracture of the pipeline from puncturing the inner airbag 224, thereby increasing the service life of the inner airbag 224 through the outer protective airbag 221. At the same time, the outer protective airbag 221 is convenient for replacement, and the outer protective airbag 221 can be replaced by disassembling the hose clamp 223.
[0029] The air delivery pipe 225 penetrates through the installation pipe 212 on the back of the inner airbag 224 and is communicated with the inner airbag 224. The other end of the air delivery pipe 225 penetrates through the installation pipe 212 above the outer protective airbag 221 and is communicated with the outside. The air delivery pipe 225 is used to inflate the inner airbag 224 to make the outer protective airbag 221 fit seamlessly with the well wall or the outer wall of the pipeline. Installation rings 222 are fixedly connected to the upper and lower ends of the outer protective airbag 221 respectively. Hose clamps 223 are sleeved on the outside of the installation rings 222 respectively. The installation rings 222 are used to make the fixing effect of both ends of the outer protective airbag 221 better. A limit ring 213 is fixedly sleeved on the outer wall of the installation pipe 212 inside the installation ring 222. The installation ring 222 is locked to the outside of the limit ring 213 through the hose clamp 223. The limit ring 213 is used to prevent the installation ring 222 from sliding on the outer wall of the installation pipe 212.
[0030] Working principle: When it is necessary to block the pipeline, open the valve 110 inside the connection component 120, insert the installation component 210 and the expansion component 220 into the pipeline. By quickly inputting gas into the gas transmission pipe 225, the gas expands the internal airbag 224. The internal airbag 224 will expand the external protective airbag 221, and the installation ring 222 blocks the inner wall of the well or the inner wall of the pipeline. After fixing the positions of the internal blocking mechanism 100 and the external blocking mechanism 200, close the valve 110. At the same time, the pipeline can be connected to the other end of the connection component 120, and the valve 110 can be opened for temporary transportation.
[0031] The above are only the preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. For those skilled in the art, the present invention can have various changes and modifications. Any modification, equivalent replacement, improvement, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present invention shall be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
