Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of oil mining, in particular to a casing head for an oil drilling machine which is easy to install and adjust. Background Art

[0002] The casing head is used to secure the wellhead and connect the wellhead casing string. It supports the weight of the technical casing and reservoir casing, seals the annular space between the layers of casing, and provides a transition connection for the installation of blowout preventers, tubing heads, and Christmas trees. Through two side ports on the main body, it can also be used for operations such as mud squeezing, monitoring, and adding balancing fluid. Below the casing head is usually the surface casing or other types of casing string. During oil drilling operations, the casing head is installed at the upper end of the surface casing string to suspend all other layers of casing except the surface casing and seal the annular space between the layers of casing. During drilling operations, the height of the wellhead can change due to changes in geological conditions or adjustments to the drilling process. This change directly affects the installation seal and alignment accuracy between the connecting pipe below and the casing head. Therefore, timely adjustment of the casing head installation height is crucial to improving the installation seal between the connecting pipe and the casing head.

[0003] With respect to the above-mentioned related technologies, the inventors found that when the wellhead height changes, in order to adjust the installation height of the casing head, it is often necessary to fine-tune the height of the lower connecting pipe first, and then install the casing head. During this process, the casing head needs to be repeatedly disassembled and assembled, which reduces work efficiency. In addition, in order to ensure that the casing head can be accurately installed on the wellhead and aligned with the connecting pipe below, the supporting chassis at the bottom of the casing head must be precisely aligned with the mounting hole of the connecting pipe during the installation process. However, since the casing head is heavy, even with the assistance of heavy equipment such as external cranes, the operator still faces great challenges when trying to rotate the casing head to complete the precise alignment of the supporting chassis and the mounting hole. This not only increases the difficulty of the operation, but also further affects the overall installation efficiency of the oil production pipeline. Utility Model Content

[0004] The main technical problem solved by the utility model is to provide a casing head for an oil drilling rig that is easy to install and adjust, which is convenient for directly adjusting the height of the casing head and does not require repeated disassembly and assembly of the casing head for installation, thereby improving work efficiency. In addition, during the installation of the casing head, it is convenient to align the supporting chassis with the installation hole of the connecting pipe, reducing the operating difficulty of the staff and further improving the overall installation efficiency of the oil production pipeline.

[0005] To solve the above technical problems, the present invention adopts a technical solution: providing a casing head for an oil drilling rig that is easy to install and adjust, comprising: a casing head body and a supporting chassis assembly disposed thereunder, a plurality of adjustment support assemblies spaced apart and connected to the top of the supporting chassis assembly, the adjustment support assemblies being connected to the casing head body;

[0006] The supporting chassis assembly includes an upper flange head and a lower flange head, the upper flange head and the lower flange head are rotatably connected, the upper flange head is provided with a plurality of mounting holes at intervals, and fastening bolts are respectively installed in the mounting holes, and the fastening bolts are respectively located on the inner side of the lower flange head;

[0007] The adjustment support assembly includes an L-shaped support rod installed on the top of the support chassis assembly, a sliding opening is opened on one side of the L-shaped support rod, a guide sliding block connected to the sleeve head body is installed in the sliding opening, and also includes a limit adjustment part that drives the guide sliding block to move up and down.

[0008] By adopting the above technical solution, the upper flange head and the lower flange head are connected by rotation to achieve relative position adjustment, which makes it easy for the upper flange head to align with the hole position of the lower connecting pipe, reducing the difficulty of installation. The L-shaped support rod provides support and connection, connecting the sleeve head body to the support chassis assembly, and the sliding opening allows the guide sliding block to slide up and down on the L-shaped support rod, thereby realizing the adjustment of the installation height of the sleeve head body, and after determining the corresponding height, it is locked in the required position through the limit adjustment member to ensure that the installation height of the sleeve head body is accurate, which not only realizes the precise adjustment of the installation height of the sleeve head body, but also reduces the difficulty of operation and reduces the number of repeated disassembly and assembly of the sleeve head body.

[0009] In a preferred example, the present invention can be further configured as follows: the limit adjustment member includes an adjusting screw threaded through the top of the L-shaped support rod, the top of the adjusting screw is connected to a driving handwheel, the upper thread of the adjusting screw is connected to at least one limit nut, and the limit nut is located between the L-shaped support rod and the guide sliding block and is in contact with the top of the guide sliding block.

[0010] By adopting the above technical solution, the driving handwheel enables the operator to easily and accurately adjust the rotation of the adjusting screw, realize the up and down movement of the guide sliding block on the L-shaped support rod, thereby adjusting the installation height of the casing head body, and locking the installation height of the casing head body under the action of the limit nut to prevent it from moving or loosening during use.

[0011] In a preferred example, the present invention can be further configured as follows: a plane bearing is provided between the upper flange head and the lower flange head, annular mounting grooves are respectively provided on the opposite sides of the upper flange head and the lower flange head, and both ends of the plane bearing are respectively installed in the corresponding annular mounting grooves.

[0012] By adopting the above technical solution, in addition to being connected to the adjusting support assembly and installing the fastening bolts, the upper flange head also cooperates with one end of the plane bearing through the annular mounting groove to achieve a flexible rotational connection with the lower flange head. In addition to being connected to the wellhead or other connecting pipe, the lower flange head also cooperates with the other end of the plane bearing through the annular mounting groove to ensure the stability and smoothness of the rotation. The plane bearing serves as a rotating connection component between the upper flange head and the lower flange head, which not only provides the necessary rotation support, but also reduces the overall weight through its hollow structure and improves the rotation efficiency.

[0013] In a preferred example, the present invention can be further configured as follows: a rotating sleeve with a U-shaped cross-section is provided on the inner side of the upper flange head, the inner circle of the rotating sleeve coincides with the inner circle of the bottom end of the casing head body, and the inner side of the outer circle of the rotating sleeve is rotatably connected to the inner circle surface of the upper flange head.

[0014] By adopting the above technical solution, the rotating sleeve reduces the direct contact between the upper flange head and the lower connecting pipe, and protects the surface of the connecting pipe when the sleeve head body and the lower connecting pipe are aligned with the lower hole after installation, thereby reducing the wear and friction on the surface of the connecting pipe, extending its service life, and enabling the sleeve head body to rotate flexibly and smoothly, thereby facilitating alignment with the hole position of the lower connecting pipe and reducing the difficulty of installation.

[0015] In a preferred example, the present invention can be further configured as follows: the bottom end of the rotating sleeve is provided with an inclined guide end surface, and the bottom end of the guide end surface is arranged away from the center of the rotating sleeve.

[0016] By adopting the above technical solution, the guide end face makes it easier to align the connecting pipe when the casing head body is installed with the connecting pipe below. Since the guide end face is inclined and the bottom end is away from the center of the rotating sleeve, when the casing head body descends, the guide end face will first contact the surface of the connecting pipe and guide the casing head body to move in the correct direction, reducing the friction and wear between the casing head body and the connecting pipe, making the installation process of the casing head body smoother and more efficient, reducing the time for repeated installation and adjustment due to improper alignment, and improving work efficiency.

[0017] In summary, the present invention includes at least one of the following beneficial technical effects of a casing head for an oil drilling rig that is easy to install and adjust:

[0018] 1. By rotating the driving handwheel, the adjusting screw drives the guide sliding block to move up and down on the L-shaped support rod until it reaches the desired position. Then, by rotating the limit nut, it is tightly against the top of the guide sliding block, thereby locking the installation height of the casing head body and ensuring the stability of the casing head body after installation.

[0019] 2. The upper flange head and the lower flange head are connected in rotation through a plane bearing, which not only reduces the overall weight but also improves the efficiency of rotation. The relative position of the two is adjusted through the rotation connection, which makes it easier for the upper flange head to align with the hole position of the connecting pipe below, reducing the difficulty of installation.

[0020] 3. The rotating sleeve and the inclined guide end surface allow the casing head body to be easily and accurately guided to the lower connecting pipe and the bottom inner cavity of the casing head body for calibration installation during the installation process. This can also reduce friction and wear caused by direct impact, and ensure the coaxiality between the casing head body and the connecting pipe, thereby improving the installation accuracy. At the same time, the rotating connection design between the rotating sleeve and the upper flange head allows the casing head body to rotate flexibly and smoothly, which is convenient for the operator to make fine adjustments and further improves the accuracy of installation.
