Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of well cementing, in particular to a piston-type floating collar and floating shoe with high sealing performance. Background Art
[0002] Cementing, the process of running casing into a well and injecting cement into the annular space between the wellbore and the casing, is an essential step in the drilling and completion process. It includes running casing and injecting cement. Cementing technology is a multidisciplinary, integrated application characterized by systematic, one-time, and short processing times. The primary purpose of cementing is to protect and support the casing in oil and gas wells and to isolate oil, gas, and water formations.
[0003] After searching, the Chinese patent "Piston type floating collar and floating shoe" authorization announcement number is "CN204738782U". This utility model discloses a piston type floating collar and floating shoe, including a device body and an inner valve. The inner valve is hollow to form an inner cavity and its bottom is closed by a orifice plate, and a drainage hole is provided on the orifice plate; the upper section of the inner valve is sealed with the device body, and the outer diameter of its lower section is smaller than the inner diameter of the device body; the diameter of the inner cavity of the upper and lower sections of the inner valve is smaller than the inner cavity of the upper section at the connection; a piston that can slide freely is provided in the inner cavity of the lower section of the inner valve, the piston is sealed with the inner cavity, and a spring is provided between it and the orifice plate; an annular protrusion is provided at the upper edge of the piston; an annular groove for accommodating the annular protrusion is provided at the top of the inner cavity of the lower section of the inner valve; an axial sealing device is also provided in the annular groove; the lower section of the inner valve is provided with a plurality of circulation holes along its circumference near the connection with the upper section; when the piston is closed, the circulation hole is closed. The piston-type floating collar and floating shoe hides the sealing element outside the mud circulation channel and will not be eroded, thereby greatly improving the service life of the floating collar and floating shoe.
[0004] Although the above-mentioned floating collar and floating shoe utilize the piston to close the circulation hole to prevent the sealing element from being eroded by mud, there is a disadvantage: a limit step is provided in the inner valve, which can be used to limit the position of the piston each time it moves down and resets. Each time the piston moves up, it is lifted up by the mud in the inner valve. Therefore, the mud fills the lower space of the inner valve and is likely to remain on the limit step during discharge, causing the piston to be padded by the mud when it is reset. In this case, the protruding part of the piston will block the flow path of the mud, causing disorderly flow of the mud, increasing the risk of mud contacting the sealed space during circulation, resulting in residual mud in the sealed space and the seal, affecting the subsequent closing effect of the seal and the sealed space.
[0005] Based on this, the utility model designs a piston-type floating collar and floating shoe with high sealing performance to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0029] 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 will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of them. 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.
[0030] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the embodiments.
[0031] In some embodiments, please refer to the appendix of the specification. Figure 1-5 A highly sealing piston-type floating collar float shoe includes a device body 1, which is hollow and has an inner valve member 2 disposed therein; the inner valve member 2 includes an inner valve body 21 fixed to the device body 1, a surface of the inner valve body 21 having a flow hole 22 and a return hole 23, and a step 24 disposed therein; and a sealing assembly 3 disposed within the inner valve body 21 of the inner valve member 2.
[0032] In the embodiment of the present utility model, the sealing assembly 3 includes a movable plate 33 that is movable in the inner valve body 21. The movable plate 33 is located below the step 24. A vertical rod 32 is integrally connected to the top of the movable plate 33. The upper end of the vertical rod 32 is fixedly connected to the piston body 31. The vertical rod 32 is grooved. A spiral rod 37 is provided in the vertical rod 32. The thread of the spiral rod 37 is adapted to the groove of the vertical rod 32. The lower end of the spiral rod 37 is fixedly connected to the inner bottom of the inner valve body 21. When the mud enters the inner valve body 21 from the device body 1, the piston body 31 intercepts the mud, and then the mud enters the lower section of the device body 1 through the flow hole 22. When the mud stops supplying, the pressure in the device body 1 is greater than the pressure in the inner valve body 21. At this time, the mud enters the inner valve body 21 through the reflux hole 23 and squeezes the movable plate 33. When the piston body 31 moves upward, the mud on the inner wall of the inner valve body 21 can be squeezed out from the flow hole 22 in a spiral manner to reduce the mud residue in the inner valve body 21. After the piston body 31 moves up to a certain position, the sealing ring 38 enters the sealing groove 25, and the piston body 31 will completely block the flow hole 22, and the mud will be completely intercepted. Since the distance between the movable plate 33 and the movable plate 35 is consistent with the height of the piston, when the piston rises into place, the movable plate 33 is just below the step 24, which can block the mud.
[0033] In the embodiment of the present invention, a bearing seat 34 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the movable plate 33, and a movable plate 35 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the bearing seat 34. The bearing seat 34 cooperates with the movable plate 35 to limit the position of the movable plate 33 and enable the movable plate 33 to follow the vertical rod 32 and drive the piston body 31 to spirally rotate and rise.
[0034] In the embodiment of the present utility model, a spring 36 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the movable plate 35, and the lower end of the spring 36 is fixedly connected to the inner bottom of the inner valve body 21; the spring 36 can not only limit the angle of the movable plate 35, but also can be used to reset the piston body 31;
[0035] In the embodiment of the present invention, the screw
[0036] The rotating rod 37 is located in the spring 36, and the spring 36 is a retractable design;
[0037] In the embodiment of the present utility model, a sealing groove 25 is formed on the inner top of the inner valve body 21, and a sealing ring 38 is fixedly connected to the upper part of the piston body 31. The sealing ring 38 is adapted to the sealing groove 25. By cooperating with the sealing ring 38 in the sealing groove 25, the piston body 31 can completely block the mud flow path between the device body 1 and the inner valve body 21, thereby improving the sealing effect.
[0038] In the embodiment of the present invention, the lower portion of the piston body 31 contacts the step 24 , and the height of the piston body 31 is close to the height of the step 24 and the flow hole 22 ;
[0039] In the embodiment of the present utility model, the piston body 31 is made of rubber, and the surface of the piston body 31 fits the inner wall of the inner valve body 21;
[0040] In the embodiment of the present invention, six flow holes 22 are provided in a circular array, and the shape of the flow holes 22 is elliptical.
[0041] The above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention, rather than to limit it. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the aforementioned embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that they can still modify the technical solutions described in the aforementioned embodiments, or make equivalent replacements for some of the technical features therein.
