[0027] Reference Figure 1-3 The utility model provides an embodiment: a circulating drilling fluid treatment device based on rock cuttings treatment, comprising a drilling fluid treatment box 1, a drilling fluid separator 2 is connected to the outer wall of the drilling fluid treatment box 1, an inlet port 3 is connected to the outer wall of the drilling fluid separator 2, an air outlet 4 is installed on the top of the drilling fluid separator 2, a movable plate frame 5 is provided at the upper end of the drilling fluid treatment box 1, an additive injection port 6 is provided on one side of the movable plate frame 5, a separation net 7 is installed inside the drilling fluid separator 2, the bottom of the separation net 7 is connected to the impurity outlet 8, a connecting pipe 9 is provided inside the drilling fluid separator 2, a filter screen A10, a filter screen B11 and a filter screen C12 are connected to the bottom of the movable plate frame 5, a motor housing 13 is installed at the bottom of the drilling fluid treatment box 1, a variable frequency motor 14 is provided inside the motor housing 13, a stirring shaft 15 is connected to the top of the variable frequency motor 14, and a baffle 16 is provided on one side of the filter screen C12.
[0028] In this utility model, the drilling fluid separator 2 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the drilling fluid treatment tank 1. The additive injection port 6 is integrally connected to the upper surface of the drilling fluid treatment tank 1. There are two additive injection ports 6. The movable plate frame 5 is plugged into the top of the drilling fluid treatment tank 1, allowing for rapid replacement and adjustment according to different drilling fluid treatment requirements, thereby improving the flexibility and applicability of the device. In addition, the provision of the additive injection port 6 allows operators to easily add and mix additives, ensuring uniformity and efficiency in drilling fluid treatment.
[0029] Furthermore, the inlet 3 is integrally connected to the outer wall of the drilling fluid separator 2, the air outlet 4 is fixedly connected to the top of the drilling fluid separator 2, and the separation net 7 is fixedly installed inside the drilling fluid separator 2. The separation net 7 is funnel-shaped, and the impurity outlet 8 is integrally connected to the bottom of the separation net 7. The impurity outlet 8 is connected to the outside world and can effectively separate solid impurities from liquid in the drilling fluid, ensuring the cleanliness of the drilling fluid. The funnel-shaped separation net 7 design allows solid impurities to be discharged smoothly through the impurity outlet 8, while the liquid flows into the connecting pipe 9 through the mesh of the separation net 7 and then into the drilling fluid treatment box 1. This design not only improves the separation efficiency, but also reduces the possibility of blockage, ensuring the stable operation of the entire drilling fluid treatment system.
[0030] Furthermore, the connecting pipe 9 is opened between the drilling fluid separator 2 and the drilling fluid treatment box 1, and the drilling fluid treatment box 1, the drilling fluid separator 2 and the connecting pipe 9 are connected. The baffle plate 16 is fixedly installed inside the drilling fluid treatment box 1, and the baffle plate 16 is set between the filter screen C12 and the stirring shaft 15. The presence of the baffle plate 16 also ensures that the stirring shaft 15 will not directly contact solid impurities when stirring the drilling fluid, thereby reducing the wear of the stirring shaft. In addition, the setting of the filter screen C12 allows the drilling fluid to be preliminarily filtered before entering the stirring zone, further improving the cleanliness of the drilling fluid. Through such a design, the drilling fluid treatment box 1 can efficiently complete the purification treatment of the drilling fluid, ensuring the smooth progress of the drilling operation.
[0031] Furthermore, filter screens A10, B11, and C12 are fixedly connected to the bottom of the movable plate frame 5. The internal pores of filter screen A10 are larger than those of filter screen B11, and the internal pores of filter screen B11 are larger than those of filter screen C12. This enables multi-stage filtration, filtering from large particles to small particles, ensuring that solid impurities in the drilling fluid are effectively removed. Filter screen A10 first intercepts larger solid particles, reducing the burden on subsequent filters; filter screen B11 further filters medium-sized particles to ensure the cleanliness of the drilling fluid; and filter screen C12 is responsible for capturing the smallest particles, ensuring that the drilling fluid reaches optimal purification. This hierarchical filtration design not only improves filtration efficiency but also extends the service life of the filters, reducing replacement frequency and maintenance costs.
[0032] Furthermore, the motor housing 13 is fixedly mounted at the bottom of the drilling fluid treatment tank 1, the variable frequency motor 14 is fixedly mounted within the motor housing 13, and the stirring shaft 15 is drivingly connected to one end of the variable frequency motor 14. The stirring shaft 15 is rotatably connected within the drilling fluid treatment tank 1, enabling continuous stirring of the drilling fluid, ensuring uniform mixing of the drilling fluid and additives within the treatment tank and preventing the deposition of solid impurities. The variable frequency motor 14 can adjust its speed based on the actual drilling fluid conditions to achieve optimal stirring while saving energy.
[0033] Working principle and usage process:
[0034] When using this circulating drilling fluid processing device, drilling fluid is first injected into drilling fluid separator 2 through inlet 3. Inside the separator, the drilling fluid undergoes initial separation under the action of gravity through separation screen 7. Larger particles of rock debris and impurities are deposited at the bottom of the funnel-shaped structure of separation screen 7 and discharged through impurity outlet 8. Simultaneously, gas in the drilling fluid is discharged through gas outlet 4 to reduce its impact on drilling fluid properties.
[0035] After the initial separation, the drilling fluid flows into the drilling fluid treatment box 1, and the drilling fluid is further finely filtered through the filter screen A10, filter screen B11 and filter screen C12. Due to the decreasing size of the filter screen holes, particles of different sizes can be effectively removed. The filtered drilling fluid finally passes through the baffle plate 16 and enters the top of the stirring shaft 15.
[0036] At this point, an appropriate amount of chemical additives can be added to the drilling fluid through the additive injection port 6 to improve the drilling fluid's properties. After the additives are added, the variable frequency motor 14 is started, and the stirring shaft 15 begins to rotate, thoroughly stirring the drilling fluid to ensure that the additives are evenly dispersed in the drilling fluid, and then returning it to the drilling fluid for recycling.
[0037] The entire treatment process is controlled by the variable frequency motor 14 in the motor housing 13. The stirring speed and filtration efficiency can be adjusted according to actual needs to adapt to different drilling conditions and drilling fluid requirements. Through this circulation treatment method, the use efficiency of drilling fluid and the safety of drilling operations can be significantly improved.
[0038] Finally, it should be noted that the above is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the aforementioned embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the aforementioned embodiments or make equivalent replacements for some of the technical features therein. Any modifications, equivalent replacements, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included in the scope of protection of the present invention.
