Abstract
Description
Technical Field

This necessitates multiple reamers, using different reaming tools in sequence. This results in low efficiency, long construction times, and high risks, severely hindering the development of pipeline construction. Utility Model Content

[0024] It should be noted that similar reference numerals and letters represent similar items in the following figures. Therefore, once an item is defined in one figure, it does not need to be further defined or explained in subsequent figures. In addition, the terms "including" and "having" and any variations thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusions. For example, a process, method, system, product or apparatus that includes a series of steps or units is not necessarily limited to those steps or units explicitly listed, but may include other steps or units that are not explicitly listed or inherent to these processes, methods, products or apparatuses.
[0025] As mentioned in the background technology, in order to solve the problems existing in the prior art, this embodiment provides a drilling and reaming device, comprising:
[0026] A first drive assembly, the first drive assembly extends along a first direction, a driving end of which is connected to a pilot drill bit 1, and the first drive assembly is used to drive the pilot drill bit 1 to drill along the pilot hole to guide the reaming operation;
[0027] Second drive components, at least three second drive components are arranged around the first drive component, and the second drive components and the first drive components are jointly sleeved with a base 2;
[0028] The power integration mechanism is arranged on one side of the base 2 close to the guide drill bit 1. The input end of the power integration mechanism is respectively connected to the at least three second drive components, and the output end is fixedly connected to the cutter disc 3. The power integration mechanism and the cutter disc 3 are sleeved on the outer periphery of the first drive component and are rotatably connected to it. The power integration mechanism is used to drive the cutter disc to rotate under the joint drive of at least three second drive components to perform hole reaming operations.
[0029] like Figure 1 As shown, the first direction is Figure 1 In the horizontal direction, the guide drill bit 1 is approximately a cylindrical structure, and spiral cutting teeth are arranged on its periphery, which can be used to guide the reaming operation while drilling along the guide hole under the drive of the first drive component to ensure the accuracy of the reaming; in other embodiments of the present application, the guide drill bit 1 can also be replaced with a reaming drill bit according to actual usage. The reaming drill bit with a reaming diameter smaller than that of the cutter disc 3 is combined with the cutter disc 3 to form a multi-stage reaming device, which can further improve the reaming efficiency; at least three second drive components are arranged around the first drive component, and the second drive component and the first drive component are relatively fixed. The cutter disc 3 is also approximately a cylindrical structure, and the power integration mechanism and the cutter disc 3 are sleeved on the periphery of the first drive component and are rotatably connected thereto, so that the power integration mechanism, the cutter disc 3 and the first drive component can rotate independently without interfering with each other.
[0030] During use, the guide drill bit 1 is placed in the guide hole, and the first drive assembly and the second drive assembly are started. The first drive assembly drives the guide drill bit 1 to rotate along the first circumferential direction, and the guide drill bit 1 drills along the guide hole; the power integration mechanism integrates the power of at least three second drive assemblies and transmits it to the cutter head 3, so that the cutter head 3 rotates along the second circumferential direction, and the second circumferential direction is opposite to the first circumferential direction. The cutter head 3 rotates to break the rock and expand the original guide hole; by setting the guide drill bit 1 and the cutter head 3 to opposite rotation directions, the counter-torques generated by the two can be offset to a certain extent, which is beneficial for the reaming device to maintain balance during operation.
[0031] By setting up a power integration mechanism to integrate the power of at least three second drive components and then transmit it to the cutter head 3, the hole expansion power of the cutter head 3 can be increased, effectively avoiding the problem in the existing technology that the single hole expansion diameter is small due to the torque limitation of the drilling rig or a single drill bit, and greatly improving the hole expansion efficiency.
[0032] In a preferred embodiment, the second drive assembly includes a second drilling tool 5, the drive end of the second drilling tool 5 is provided with a second drive gear 201, the power integration mechanism includes a second inner ring gear 202, the second inner ring gear 202 is the input end, at least three second drive gears 201 are respectively engaged with the second inner ring gear 202, the second inner ring gear 202 is fixedly connected with a sleeve, the sleeve is the output end, the sleeve is sleeved on the outer periphery of the first drive assembly and is rotatably connected to it, and the free end of the sleeve is fixed to the cutter disc 3.
[0033] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the second drilling tool 5 adopts the screw drilling tool in the prior art. The screw drilling tool uses the mud pumped out by the mud pump as a power source to convert the pressure of the liquid into rotational mechanical energy. In this embodiment, three screw drilling tools are provided. The driving end of the screw drilling tool is sleeved with a second driving gear 201, and a second inner gear ring 202 is provided around the three second driving gears 201, so that the second inner gear ring 202 is engaged with the three second driving gears 201 at the same time. The diameter of the sleeve is smaller than the second inner gear ring and the cutter head 3. An annular disc is further connected at both ends thereof, which is convenient for fixing the second inner gear ring and the cutter head 3 respectively through the annular disc; the power of the three second drilling tools 5 is integrated and output to the cutter head 3 through the second inner gear ring. At the same time, the rotation of the second drilling tool 5 can further increase the rotational torque of the cutter head 3 after being transmitted through the second inner gear ring 202, effectively solving the limitation of insufficient power on the diameter of a single hole expansion and improving the hole expansion efficiency.
[0034] In a preferred embodiment, the first drive assembly includes a first drilling tool 4, the driving end of the first drilling tool 4 passes through the base 3 and is connected to a reduction mechanism, which is fixedly connected to the guide drill bit 1.

[0035] like Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, the first drilling tool 4 adopts the turbodrill in the prior art. The turbodrill uses drilling fluid as a power source and converts the kinetic energy of the liquid flow into rotational mechanical energy. A reduction mechanism is also provided between the first drilling tool 4 and the guide drill bit 1, which can further increase the rotational torque of the guide drill bit 1.

The number of teeth of the transmission gear 105 is greater than that of the first drive gear 101. The transmission gear 105 is connected to the guide drill bit 1 through a transmission shaft. The transmission shaft passes through the sleeve and the cutter disc 3 in sequence along the first direction, and is rotatably connected to the sleeve and the cutter disc 3 respectively.
[0037] like Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, the main body of the base 2 is a cylindrical body with an open end, and an annular connecting portion is sleeved on the outer edge of the opening of the cylindrical body.

The first driving gear 101 and the first inner gear ring 102 are jointly meshed with a first transition gear 103, and the first transition gear 103 is coaxially connected to the second transition gear 104. In this embodiment, In the embodiment, the number of the first transition gear 103 and the second transition gear 104 are three, and the number of teeth of the first transition gear 103 is greater than that of the second transition gear 104. The three second transition gears 104 are commonly engaged with a transmission gear 105. The transmission gear 105 is coaxially arranged with the first drive gear 101 and has a greater number of teeth than the first drive gear 101. The transmission gear 105 is connected to the guide drill bit 1 through a transmission shaft. The transmission shaft passes through the sleeve and the cutter disc 3 in sequence along the first direction and is rotatably connected to the sleeve and the cutter disc 3 through a deep groove ball bearing.
[0038] In a preferred embodiment, the second inner gear ring 202 is externally rotatably connected to a cover shell 6, the cover shell 6 has an open end on one side along the first direction, the base 2 covers the open end and is fixed to the cover shell 6, and the sleeve passes through one end of the cover shell 6 away from the base 2 and is rotatably connected to the cover shell 6.
[0039] like Figure 1 As shown, the cover shell 6 is also a cylindrical structure, the base 2 covers the open end of the cover shell 6, and its annular connecting portion is fixed to the open end of the cover shell 6 by bolts. The base 2 and the cover shell 6 are interlocked to form a closed first space inside the two. By arranging the gears used for transmitting power of the reaming device in the first space and separating it from the external environment, it can effectively avoid interference with the gear structure caused by mud and rock chips in the environment during the reaming operation.
[0040] In a preferred embodiment, the cutter disc 3 includes a cutter disc body, and a plurality of first drill bits 301 and second drill bits 302 are staggeredly distributed on one side of the cutter disc body close to the guide drill bit 1, and a plurality of protective ribs 303 extending along the first direction are evenly distributed around the circumference of the cutter disc body.
[0041] like Figure 4 As shown, the cutter head body is approximately cylindrical in structure, the first drill bit 301 adopts the roller drill bit in the prior art, and the second drill bit 302 adopts the roller cutter drill bit in the prior art. The roller cutter drill bit has a small rock breaking torque and concentrated pressure, which is convenient for penetrating the formation, and the roller cutter drill bit is suitable for harder rocks. By arranging two different types of reaming drill bits on the side of the cutter head body close to the guide drill bit 1, the rock breaking efficiency can be effectively improved and the applicability of the reaming device can be enhanced. The protective rib 303 is used to enhance the overall strength of the cutter head 3.
[0042] In a preferred embodiment, a plurality of grooves extending along the first direction are further provided between two adjacent protective ribs 303 in the circumferential direction of the cutter head body.
[0043] like Figure 4 As shown, the groove is opened along the first direction on the outer periphery of the cutter head 3 to form a flow channel that can be used to discharge rock cuttings and mud during reaming operation, thereby reducing the drilling resistance of the reaming device.
