[0038] To make the purpose, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention more clear, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention are clearly and completely described. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making any creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0039] The embodiment of the present application solves the problem of low liquid density measurement accuracy caused by wear of the density sensor by providing a density measurement instrument while drilling. The protective mechanism cooperates with the camera mechanism and the density measurement mechanism so that the protective mechanism can provide friction protection for the camera mechanism and the density measurement mechanism on one end of the drill shank. The setting of the camera mechanism can observe the surrounding environment of the drill rod, so that the protective mechanism will not be moved out at will, thereby reducing the wear of the camera and the density sensor and improving the accuracy of the density sensor in measuring liquid density.

[0040] In order to better understand the above technical solution, the above technical solution will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific implementation methods.

[0041] The embodiment of the utility model discloses a density measurement while drilling instrument.

[0042] According to the attached Figure 1 As shown in FIG-5 , it includes a drill shank 1 and a drill bit 2. The drill bit 2 is installed at one end of the drill shank 1. The drill shank 1 is installed on a drilling rig. The drill shank 1 also includes: a protective mechanism 3, a card slot 4, a camera mechanism 5 and a density measuring mechanism 6. The protective mechanism 3 is provided on the drill shank 1. The card slot 4 is opened on the drill shank 1. The camera mechanism 5 is installed on the drill shank 1 and is used to observe the outside of the drill shank 1. The density measuring mechanism 6 is installed on the drill shank 1 and is used to measure the density of the liquid outside the drill shank 1. The protective mechanism 3 is used to protect the camera mechanism 5 and the density measuring mechanism 6 from friction.

[0043] Among them, the drill bit 2 includes: a head body 21, scraper wings 22 and wear-resistant beads 23. The head body 21 is threadedly connected to one end of the drill handle 1, and the scraper wings 22 are arranged at one end of the head body 21. Multiple scraper wings 22 are installed in a circular array at the drilling end of the head body 21. The wear-resistant beads 23 are equidistantly rotated and embedded in the outside of the scraper wings 22. Through the setting of the wear-resistant beads 23, the wear of the scraper wings 22 by rock mud and the like is reduced, thereby improving the service life of the drill bit 2.

[0044] Furthermore, the protection mechanism 3 includes: a casing 31, a fixed rod 32 and an electric telescopic rod 33. The casing 31 is slidably connected to the outer wall of the drill shank 1. The casing 31 is made of wear-resistant steel. Through the casing 31, the outer end of the drill shank 1 is easily protected to reduce the friction damage of solid materials such as rock mud to the camera mechanism 5 and the density measurement mechanism 6 on one end of the drill shank 1. The fixed rod 32 is fixed to the middle of the casing 31, and the electric telescopic rod 33 is fixedly inserted into one end of the card slot 4. The telescopic end of the electric telescopic rod 33 is installed on the fixed rod 32. The fixed rod 32 is slidably inserted into the inner cavity of the card slot 4. The electric telescopic rod 33 is fixedly inserted into the middle of the drill shank 1. By driving the electric telescopic rod 33, it can push and pull the fixed rod 32, so that the casing 31 can slide stably at one end of the outer wall of the drill shank 1.

[0045] Specifically, the imaging mechanism 5 includes: a camera 51 and a protective ring 52. The camera 51 is fixedly embedded in the outer wall of the drill shank 1. The camera 51 is used to observe liquids such as rocks, mud or oil outside the drill shank 1, so as to facilitate the density measurement mechanism 6 to measure the density of the area to be detected. The protective ring 52 is fixed to the camera end of the camera 51, and the protective ring 52 is in contact with the inner wall of the casing 31 for friction. A transparent cover 7 is fixedly embedded in the outer wall of the casing 31. The transparent cover 7 is made of wear-resistant plastic. When the casing 31 is attached to one end of the drill bit 2, the camera 51 and the transparent cover 7 are in a relative state, and the protective ring 52 is in contact with the inner wall of the transparent cover 7, so that the camera 51 can directly observe the underground material layer outside the drill shank 1 through the transparent cover 7.

[0046] More specifically, the density measuring mechanism 6 includes: a connecting groove 61, a density sensor 62, a sealing collar 63 and a sealing rubber 64. The connecting groove 61 is opened on the outer wall of the drill shank 1, and the density sensor 62 is embedded in the inner cavity of the connecting groove 61. The probe end of the density sensor 62 is arranged on the outside of the connecting groove 61. The probe of the density sensor 62 is used to perform contact sensing density measurement with the liquid outside the drill shank 1. The sealing collar 63 is installed at the probe end of the density sensor 62. The sealing rubber 64 is fixed between the sealing collar 63 and the connecting groove 61. The density sensor 62 is used to measure the density of the liquid. The sealing rubber 64 is used to seal and prevent the inner side of the connecting groove 61 from leaking. The sealing rubber 64 is used to seal the inner cavity of the connecting groove 61, so that the density sensor 62 is protected from the influence of liquid erosion, thereby improving the stability of the use of the density sensor 62. A wire hole 9 is provided in the middle of the drill shank 1, so that the connecting wires of the density sensor 62 and the camera 51 can pass through the drill shank 1 stably, and the density sensor 62 and the camera 51 are electrically connected to the external drilling rig power supply through the external drilling rig switch, so that the density sensor 62 and the camera 51 can be used stably. The setting of the casing 31 reduces the wear of the camera 51 and the density sensor 62, and improves the accuracy of the density sensor 62 in measuring liquid density.

[0047] In particular, a sealing gasket 8 is fitted on the other end of the head body 21, and one end of the casing 31 and the drill shank 1 is fitted with the sealing gasket 8. The sealing gasket 8 improves the sealing performance of the casing 31 and the drill shank 1 when they are fitted with one end of the drill bit 2, thereby reducing the entry of liquid or mud between the drill bit 2 and the casing 31, making the use of the measuring instrument more stable.
