DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0021] The present invention is described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments and accompanying drawings. Example 1
[0022] See also Figures 1 to 5A multifunctional elevator with an anti-torsion mechanism, including an upper hanging plate 16, a lower hanging plate 19, a main tong 22, a backup tong 21 and a power elevator 18, which is used in conjunction with a wellhead equipment 10; and an anti-torsion mechanism; the anti-torsion mechanism includes a wire rope 4, a first support rod 6, a second support rod 5, a first pulley 8, a second pulley 11 and a turnbuckle tensioner 12. The upper end of the wire rope 4 is connected to the crown block position at the top of the derrick 2, and the lower end is connected to the turnbuckle tensioner 12 fixed on the table of the workover rig 1. The inner end of the first support rod 6 is fixed to the outside of the upper hanging plate 16, and the outer end is fixedly connected to the sliding sleeve 7 which is mounted on the outer periphery of the wire rope 4. The sliding sleeve 7 can slide up and down along the wire rope 4. The second support rod 5 is located below the first support rod 6. The inner end of the second support rod 5 is fixed to the derrick 2, and the outer end is slidingly connected to the wire rope 4 through the provided first pulley 8. The second pulley 11 is installed on the derrick 2 and is below the second support rod 5. The second pulley 11 is slidingly connected to the wire rope 4; the power elevator 18 is a side-opening elevator. Example 2
[0023] See also Figures 1 to 5 A multifunctional elevator with an anti-torsion mechanism, based on the technical solution described in Example 1, wherein the second support rod 5 is a telescopic rod, and the length of the telescopic rod can be adjusted appropriately according to the on-site conditions, so as to better adjust the multifunctional elevator to the wellhead. Example 3
[0024] See also Figures 1 to 5 A multifunctional elevator with an anti-torsion mechanism, based on the technical solution described in Example 1, is provided with a guide bowl 24 below the backup clamp 21 to better guide the oil pipe into the backup clamp 21. Example 4
[0025] See also Figures 1 to 5 A multifunctional elevator with an anti-torsion mechanism, based on the technical solution described in Example 1, has a first oil cylinder 20 installed between an upper hanging plate 16 and a lower hanging plate 19, and the lower hanging plate 19 is turned over by retracting and extending the piston rod of the first oil cylinder 20; a second oil cylinder 17 is installed between the lower hanging plate 19 and a power elevator 18, and the power elevator 18 is turned over by retracting and extending the piston rod of the second oil cylinder 17.

[0027] In order to enable those skilled in the art to better understand the present invention, its basic working principle is briefly introduced as follows:
[0028] The wire rope 4 guides the multifunctional elevator body 9 as it moves up and down. The coordinated operation of the first support rod 6, the second support rod 5, the first pulley 8, the second pulley 11, and the turnbuckle tensioner 12 (used to adjust the wire rope tension) ensures that the wire rope 4 maintains a consistent trajectory with the multifunctional elevator body 9. This enhances the overall guiding stability of the elevator, enabling it to center the wellhead and grip the tubing even in the presence of wind. Furthermore, the multifunctional elevator body 9 does not rotate during the make-up and breakout processes of the main tongs 22 and backup tongs 21. The power elevator 18 is designed as a side-opening elevator, which facilitates a wider range of tubing grips. The guide bowl 24 guides the tubing into the backup tongs 21. The backup tongs 21 grip the tubing ferrule, while the main tongs 22 rotate the tubing nipple 23, enabling make-up and breakout of the tubing between them.
