[0023] The following embodiments are only for illustration. Each embodiment can be combined, which is not limited to the content shown in the following single embodiment.

[0024] Please refer to Figures 1-4The utility model provides a kind of petroleum fracturing sand's shaper, it include: rack 1, drive mechanism, shaping cavity 3, whole core 4, first feed inlet 5, first discharge port 6 and multiple prismatic whole blocks 7;Drive mechanism and shaping cavity 3 are arranged on rack 1;Whole core 4 is arranged in shaping cavity 3, and whole core 4 is provided with accommodating cavity 41, second feed inlet 42 and multiple second discharge ports 43, and second feed inlet 42 is arranged on the top of whole core 4, and first feed inlet 5 and second feed inlet 42 are communicated;Multiple second discharge ports 43 are arranged on the side of whole core 4 at intervals, and second discharge port 43 is communicated with shaping cavity 3;Second feed inlet 42 and second discharge port 43 are communicated with accommodating cavity 41;First discharge port 6 is communicated with shaping cavity 3;To be shaped fracturing sand enters into accommodating cavity 41 by first feed inlet 5 and second feed inlet 42;The bottom of whole core 4 is connected with drive mechanism;Multiple prismatic whole blocks 7 are arranged on the inner side of shaping cavity 3;Drive mechanism is used to drive whole core 4 to rotate, to throw the fracturing sand to be shaped in accommodating cavity 41 to the prismatic whole block of shaping cavity 3;The fracturing sand to be shaped is bounced back to shaping cavity 3 after colliding with prismatic whole block, and is mutually rubbed and inserted with the fracturing sand to be shaped in shaping cavity 3, to form the fracturing sand after shaping, and the fracturing sand after shaping is transmitted out of shaping cavity 3 by first discharge port 6.

[0025] The upper portion of shaping cavity 3 can be provided with a feed hopper, and the fracturing sand to be shaped can be conveyed into the feed hopper by a pipeline or a conveyor, and the fracturing sand to be shaped in the feed hopper can enter the accommodating cavity 41 of the whole core 4 through the first feed inlet 5 and the second feed inlet 42 by the action of gravity. The prismatic whole block 7 can have a triangular prism structure, and one side of the extension direction of the prismatic whole block 7 is smoothly transitioned, and the connection between the adjacent two prismatic whole blocks 7 is connected by an arc. The extension direction of the prismatic whole block 7 is parallel to the central axis of the shaping cavity 3. The whole core 4 is rotatably connected to the bottom of the shaping cavity 3. The first discharge port 6 is arranged at the bottom of the shaping cavity 3.

[0026] When the drive mechanism drives the whole core 4 to rotate, the rotation of the whole core 4 generates a centrifugal force, which in turn drives the fracturing sand to be shaped in the accommodating cavity 41 to be thrown out of the shaping cavity 3 through the second discharge port 43. When the fracturing sand to be shaped is thrown out of the shaping cavity 3, the fracturing sand to be shaped will collide with the prismatic whole block 7 due to the action of the centrifugal force. Since the prismatic whole block 7 is prismatic, the fracturing sand to be shaped will bounce back into the shaping cavity 3 in a shape similar to an umbrella surface, thereby being mutually rubbed and inserted with the fracturing sand to be shaped in the shaping cavity 3, so as to remove the irregular shape of the fracturing sand to be shaped, make the shape of the fracturing sand to be shaped more round, and reduce the particle size of the fracturing sand, thereby achieving the purpose of shaping. Due to the mutual rubbing and insertion of the fracturing sand to be shaped in the shaping cavity 3, the centrifugal force imparted to the fracturing sand to be shaped by the whole core 4 gradually decreases. When the centrifugal force of the fracturing sand to be shaped decreases to a certain range, the fracturing sand to be shaped gradually falls downward due to its own gravity, thereby being transmitted out through the first discharge port 6 arranged at the bottom of the shaping cavity 3, and at this time, the fracturing sand to be shaped is also shaped.

[0027] In an embodiment, the whole core 4 comprises a plurality of first guide blocks 44, and the second discharge port 43 is formed between two first guide blocks 44. The plurality of first guide blocks 44 are arranged in a diverging manner on the whole core 4, and the first guide blocks 44 enclose the receiving cavity 41 of the whole core 4 towards one end of the central axis of the whole core 4. In an embodiment, the first guide blocks 44 can be in a circular arc structure. By arranging the first guide blocks 44 in a circular arc structure, the fracturing sand to be shaped can be uniformly distributed in the shaping cavity 3 after being thrown into the shaping cavity 3.

The second guide block 45 can be a cladding member wrapped around the outer side of the first guide block 44, which is made of wear-resistant material to reduce the wear of the first guide block 44. In an implementation, the second guide block 45 is made of high-chromium alloy, which has high strength and excellent wear resistance, thereby reducing the wear of the second guide block 45 caused by the collision between the fracturing sand to be shaped and the second guide block 45, and prolonging the service life of the second guide block 45.
