Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of oil production equipment, in particular to a reciprocating downhole oil pumping electric pump device. Background Art

[0002] Traditional oil extraction equipment primarily relies on beam pumping units (beam pumping units). These units are mechanically powered devices connected to the pump's column via a sucker rod, which drives the reciprocating plunger, drawing the oil from underground to the surface. However, these units suffer from significant drawbacks, including high energy consumption, low pumping efficiency, skewed wear on the rod and tubing, and high maintenance costs.

[0003] With the development of technology, linear motor drive has become the main method of oil production today. Linear motors convert electrical energy directly into mechanical energy for linear reciprocating motion, simplifying the mechanical transmission process and effectively improving efficiency. The oil production parameters can be adjusted steplessly, providing convenient conditions for achieving automatic control and meeting oil production process requirements. This is a promising new type of pumping unit. It realizes the "rodless oil production" process of tubular plunger pumps, solves the technical difficulty of "tube-rod eccentric wear" of walking beam pumps, extends pump inspection cycles, and saves operating costs.

[0004] When used as a power source, a linear motor must be completely submerged deep underground in oil-rich environments. Due to the varying temperatures in the underground environment, the stator and the air gap between the motor housing and stator generate heat, causing the air in the gap to expand. This can cause deformation and affect the motor's proper operation. Existing linear motors are typically equipped with an air expander, but this is complex and difficult to install.

[0005] The biggest problem with linear motors is their long length. During manufacturing, assembly, and especially use, it is difficult to maintain coaxiality between the mover and stator, affecting normal mechanical movement.

[0006] Furthermore, existing linear motors in deep wells are susceptible to failure due to long-term corrosion from crude oil, reducing oil recovery efficiency. This is primarily due to oil and water entering the motor's air gap, corroding the magnets and causing the stator to lose magnetism. Demagnetization increases the current and eventually causes the motor to stop functioning. Sediment and sand deposits can also clog the air gap, blocking the rotor. Improvements have been made to fill the motor's air gap with lubricating oil to lubricate the rotor and bearings, but this still inevitably causes leakage, impacting operation.

[0007] Therefore, the existing submersible electric pumps used in deep well oil production have defects. Summary of the Invention

[0008] The purpose of the utility model is to solve the above technical problems and provide a novel downhole electric pump device, which can realize simple and efficient oil production, is easy to maintain and has a long service life.

[0009] In order to achieve the above technical objectives and meet the above technical requirements, the technical solution adopted by the utility model is: a downhole oil pump device, including a plunger oil pump, a pump drive system, and a control system. The pump drive system includes a permanent magnet explosion-proof motor, an end cover assembly, and a connecting pipe. The screw is connected to the motor output shaft through a coupling assembly. A screw nut is provided on the screw. A hollow plunger is provided on the plunger oil pump. The hollow plunger is connected to the screw nut through a plunger connecting sleeve. The end cover assembly is provided with an outlet screw and a lead wire. The lead wire is connected to the control cabinet and supplies power to the permanent magnet explosion-proof motor downhole through a cable.

[0010] Preferably, the coupling assembly includes a coupling and a motor connecting sleeve, and the coupling is provided with a plane thrust bearing and a nut.

[0014] Preferably, a threaded hole is provided on the end cover assembly, a wire lead hole is provided at the bottom of the threaded hole, and the lead screw is sealed and fixed on the threaded hole.

[0015] Preferably, the end cover assembly is configured as an end cover and a hard seal combination.

[0017] Compared with the traditional structure, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0018] 1. The drive system of the utility model has a simple structure. It applies the principle of the reciprocating motion of the screw to the power of the downhole oil pump plunger pump. Through the periodic forward and reverse rotation of the motor, the screw rod reciprocates, driving the reciprocating motion of the oil pump plunger, thereby achieving the purpose of stable, reliable and continuous oil extraction from deep underground.

[0019] 2. The size of the motor used in the present invention is much smaller than that of a linear motor. Its length is only one twentieth of that of a linear motor, making it easier to protect.
