[0002] In the fields of oil extraction, processing, and related industries, backup tongs are an important tool and are widely used in the loading and unloading operations of oil well tubing. Traditional backup tong designs mostly use a single jaw plate structure, which is driven by hydraulic or mechanical means to achieve the clamping and release of the oil well tubing. However, with the increasing complexity of the oilfield operating environment and the improvement of the requirements for operating efficiency, traditional backup tongs have gradually exposed some problems. For example, the single jaw plate structure is prone to deviation during the clamping process, resulting in uneven force on the tubing and increasing the risk of tubing damage. This problem is particularly prominent when handling tubing with large diameter variations. Secondly, the clamping force of traditional backup tongs is often affected by factors such as hydraulic fluctuations or mechanical wear, making it difficult to maintain a constant force, thereby affecting the stability and durability of the equipment.

[0019] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific implementation methods.
[0020] like Figures 1 to 4 The back tongs 2 are provided with a bracket 7 on one side of the back tongs 2 and a bracket 7 on the other side of the back tongs 2. A clamping cylinder 6 is provided between the bracket 7 and the jaw frame 3. The clamping cylinder 62 is rotatably connected to the bracket 7. The piston rod 61 of the clamping cylinder 6 is rotatably connected to the bracket 7 and the support shaft 31 fixed to the jaw frame 3.
[0021] Preferably, the swing jaw assembly 4 includes a jaw tooth 42 , a jaw plate 43 , and a jaw plate shaft 44 . The jaw plate 43 is rotatably connected to the upper and lower ramp plates 41 through the jaw plate shaft 44 , and a jaw tooth 42 is fixedly provided on the inner side of the jaw plate 43 .
[0022] Preferably, the swing jaw assembly 4 is provided with two sets of jaw shafts 44 .
[0023] Preferably, the clamping cylinder 6 is driven to extend and retract by a hydraulic system.
[0024] The working process of the above-mentioned swinging double-jaw pliers head applied to the back-up tongs is as follows: pull out the safety pin 5, start the hydraulic system, and the piston rod 61 of the clamping cylinder 6 contracts, thereby driving the swinging jaw assembly 4 to move; the roller on the swinging jaw assembly 4 climbs along the curve of the inner arc surface of the ramp plate body 41, so that the inner teeth 42 of the jaw plate 43 clamp the pipe column to complete the clamping action; then reverse the operation to make the clamping cylinder 6 move and drive the jaw plate 43 to rotate in the opposite direction, the roller retreats, the jaw plate 43 releases the pipe column, and at the same time the jaw plate frame 3 is aligned with the notch of the ramp plate body 41, and finally the safety pin 5 is inserted to stop working.
[0025] Figure 3 This is the first embodiment of the safety pin 5. The safety pin 5 includes a shackle 51, a stud 52, a locking bolt 53, a pin body 54, and a threaded surface 55. The pin body 54 is fastened together by the stud 52 and the locking bolt 53. There are two groups of locking bolts 53. The shackle 51 is rotatably connected to the stud 52 fixed on the pin body 54. The shackle 51 facilitates the removal and rotation of the safety pin. The tail of the pin body 54 is processed with a threaded surface 55.
[0026] The upper jaw plate frame 32 , the lower jaw plate frame 33 and the back-up clamp body 2 are respectively provided with holes 9 , which are aligned. The safety pin 5 can be inserted into the hole 9 and threadedly connected to the nut 10 through the threaded surface 55 .
[0027] In one embodiment, the tail of the pin body 54 of the safety pin 5 is processed with four sets of threaded surfaces 55. Compared with the threaded structure of a traditional bolt, the four sets of threaded surfaces 55 reduce the contact area with the nut, thereby reducing friction and lowering the probability of locking.
