[0028] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the embodiments described 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 creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0029] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a drainage type nozzle for a pyrotechnic cutting torch, so as to solve the problems existing in the prior art and meet the dual requirements of nozzle cutting efficiency and structural strength.

[0030] In order to make the above-mentioned objects, features and advantages of the present invention more obvious and easy to understand, the present invention is further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific implementation methods.

[0031] like Figures 1-8As shown, this embodiment provides a drainage type nozzle for a pyrotechnic cutting torch, comprising a nozzle body 1, a beam ring 2, a plug 6 and a drain plug 5. The nozzle body 1 is hollow inside and open at both ends. The drain plug 5 is limitedly installed at the first end inside the nozzle body 1, and the drain plug 5 can only move in the direction close to the second end of the nozzle body 1. The plug 6 is limitedly installed at the second end inside the nozzle body 1 to achieve blocking of the second end of the nozzle body 1. A plurality of flow channels 10 are provided in the middle of the nozzle body 1, and the flow channels 10 can connect the inside of the nozzle body 1 with the outside world. The lower end of the flow channel 10 is connected to a drainage channel 9. The drain plug 5 can remain sealed in the initial stage, and when the molten jet enters the inside of the nozzle body 1, it cooperates with the drainage channel 9 below the flow channel 10 to quickly drain water. The cross-section of the drainage channel 9 is U-shaped and can accommodate part of the water; the beam ring 2 is sleeved on the outer surface of the nozzle body 1 The beam ring 2 is provided with an extension port at the position corresponding to the flow channel 10, and the extension port can expose the flow channel 10. The distance between the two is 0.5mm-2mm. Through the arrangement of the beam ring 2 and each flow channel 10, the molten jet can be evenly distributed and the jet shape can be constrained to ensure precise energy-focusing cutting. At the same time, the overall strength is enhanced. After the molten jet enters the nozzle body 1 through the first end of the nozzle body 1, the molten jet can push the drain plug 5 downward to the bottom of the flow channel 10 under the action of thrust, and then connect the flow channel 10 with the upper part of the nozzle body 1, so that the molten jet can be ejected through the flow channel 10 and the extension port to cut the target pipeline. When the drain plug 5 goes down, it can squeeze the cavity below it, and then discharge the water in the nozzle body 1 through the flow channel 10 and the extension port under the action of pressure.

[0032] Specifically, the first end of the nozzle body 1 is used to extend into the combustion chamber to facilitate the molten jet in the combustion chamber to enter the nozzle body 1. The first end of the nozzle body 1 is threadedly connected to the inner wall of the combustion chamber and is detachably connected to facilitate connection and disassembly. The nozzle body 1 is also provided with a first step surface on the outer wall near the first end. One end of the combustion chamber is limited on the first step surface. By limiting the combustion chamber, the connection stability is improved.

[0033] The outer wall of the combustion chamber is provided with a second step surface, and a sealing ring 3 is connected between the second step surface and the beam ring 2 to limit the two ends of the sealing ring 3. The sealing ring 3 is sleeved on the outer wall of the connection between the first end of the nozzle body 1 and the combustion chamber to improve the connection stability of the connection between the first end of the nozzle body 1 and the combustion chamber, and at the same time can seal this connection.

[0034] A large sealing ring 8 is installed between the inner wall of the sealing ring 3 and the outer wall of the nozzle body 1, as well as between the inner wall of the sealing ring 3 and the outer wall of the combustion chamber. The large sealing ring 8 seals the gap between the sealing ring 3 and the nozzle body 1, as well as the gap between the sealing ring 3 and the combustion chamber.

[0035] A small sealing plug is installed between the outer wall of the drain plug 5 and the inner wall of the nozzle body 1 to seal the gap between the drain plug 5 and the nozzle body 1. On the one hand, it can ensure that when the molten jet enters the nozzle body 1, it can push the drain plug 5 downward. On the other hand, it can prevent well water and the like from entering the top of the drain plug 5 through the bottom of the drain plug 5 and affecting normal work.

[0036] The outer wall of the combustion chamber, the outer wall of the nozzle body 1 and the outer wall of the drain plug 5 are all provided with annular grooves, which are used to accommodate the corresponding large sealing ring 8 and small sealing ring 7 respectively.

[0037] The inner ring of the first end of the nozzle body 1 is provided with a limiting step surface, and a limiting ring 4 is threadedly connected to the limiting step surface. The limiting ring 4 is located above the drain plug 5, and the drain plug 5 is limited by the limiting ring 4 to prevent the drain plug 5 from moving upward and sliding out due to water entering the interior when the nozzle body 1 moves downward, thereby affecting the sealing. A straight groove 13 is provided at the upper end of the limiting ring 4, which is convenient for connecting with tools to realize the disassembly and assembly of the limiting ring 4.

[0038] The flow channel 10 is a radial fan-shaped flow channel, and multiple fan-shaped flow channels are arranged circumferentially around the axis of the nozzle body 1. Each flow channel 10 is located on the same plane, that is, multiple flow channels 10 form a circle, and adjacent fan-shaped flow channels are separated by rectangular connecting ribs 11. At the same time, the rectangular connecting ribs 11 also improve the connection strength to ensure that the strength of the integrated structure is maintained.

[0039] The number of the flow channels 10 is three to five, the width of the flow channels 10 is 3 mm to 6 mm, and the width of the rectangular connecting ribs 11 is 4 mm to 8 mm.

[0040] The distance between the fan-shaped flow channel and the upper end surface of the plug 6 is the first distance, the length of the drain plug 5 is the first length, and the first distance is 10mm-30mm greater than the first length, thereby forming a molten pool in the cavity below the flow channel 10, thereby preventing the slag formed by the combustion of the internal charge column from clogging the flow channel 10 after the molten jet enters the interior of the nozzle body 1, affecting the subsequent ejection of the molten jet, and achieving smooth cutting of the target oil pipe.

[0041] The beam ring 2 has pin holes 12 on its sidewalls. Pins pass through these holes to connect the beam ring 2 to the nozzle body 1. The inner wall of the beam ring 2 is secured to the outer wall of the nozzle body 1 by gluing. This is aided by wrapping with a high-temperature-resistant tape, such as polyimide, to enhance connection stability. This prevents relative rotation between the beam ring 2 and the nozzle body 1, which could affect the alignment of the flow channel 10 and the extension port. The outlet of the flow channel 10 should be left clear during wrapping to prevent it from being obstructed by the high-temperature-resistant tape. The beam ring 2 is preferably made of a high-temperature-resistant material, such as graphite, tungsten-copper alloy, or ceramic.

[0042] The beam ring 2 exposes the edge of the flow channel 10 of the nozzle body 1 by 0.5mm-2mm, so that when the molten jet is ejected from the inside, it can avoid being broken by impact and can effectively resist the ablation of the molten jet, achieving a good beam effect, thereby improving energy utilization and enhancing the quality of oil pipe cutting.

[0043] The plug 6 includes a large section and a small section, which are transitioned through a conical surface. The angle of the conical surface is preferably 30°-60°. An annular groove is provided on the outer periphery of the small section for connecting a measuring instrument. The plug 6 is non-hollow.

[0044] In this embodiment, before the nozzle body 1 works, the internal and external environments are isolated under the sealing effect of the drain plug 5, ensuring that the cutting agent, ignition element, etc. are dry and available; when the nozzle body 1 works, the drain plug 5 quickly drains downward under the high pressure of the molten jet, passes through the flow channel 10, and leaves a "molten pool" below it, thereby achieving smooth cutting of the target pipe.

[0045] The present invention uses specific examples to illustrate the principles and implementation methods of the present invention. The above examples are only intended to help understand the method and core concept of the present invention. At the same time, those skilled in the art will find that the specific implementation methods and application scopes may vary based on the concept of the present invention. In summary, the contents of this specification should not be construed as limiting the present invention.
