Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of oilfield fracturing equipment, and in particular relates to diversion manifold equipment for oilfield fracturing. Background Technology
[0002] A manifold for oilfield fracturing is a device used for fluid transport and distribution, typically applied in industries such as petroleum, natural gas, and chemicals. Its main function is to collect fluid from multiple input pipes into one output pipe, or to divert fluid from one input pipe to multiple output pipes.
[0003] A current publication, CN220248032U, discloses a diversion manifold device for oilfield fracturing in controlled pressure drilling. The device includes a delivery pipe, one end of which is connected to the output end of an external mud pump, and the other end of which is connected to a high-pressure hose of an external drill pipe; a control valve is mounted on the delivery pipe; and an inlet pipe, one end of which is connected to the delivery pipe, and the other end of which is connected to an external controlled pressure drilling surface manifold. A first control valve is mounted on the inlet pipe. The port of the inlet pipe is located between the control valve and the external mud pump. When the control valve is closed and the first control valve is open, the liquid medium delivered by the external mud pump can enter the external controlled pressure drilling surface manifold through the inlet pipe to ensure stable surface back pressure.
[0004] Existing manifold equipment used for oilfield fracturing still has the following shortcomings:
[0005] 1. During oilfield fracturing, liquid medium needs to be introduced into the manifold equipment used for oilfield fracturing. Because many parts of the pipeline are connected, backflow is likely to occur during high-pressure input, which will cause impact on the pipeline. After fracturing is completed, excess liquid medium also needs to be recovered.
[0006] 2. In the process of using the manifold equipment for oilfield fracturing, multiple pipes are connected. During oilfield fracturing, the high-pressure liquid medium will scour the inside, which can easily lead to loose connections between the pipes. Utility Model Content
[0007] The purpose of this invention is to solve the problems in the existing technology where multiple parts of the pipeline are connected, and backflow is likely to occur during high-pressure input, which will lead to the impact on the pipeline. After fracturing, it is also necessary to recover the excess liquid medium. In oilfield fracturing, the high-pressure liquid medium will flush inside, which can also cause the pipeline connection to be loose. Therefore, the proposed invention is a diversion manifold device for oilfield fracturing.
[0008] In order to achieve the above purpose, the present invention adopts the following technical solutions:

[0011] Preferably, a first connecting side plate is fixedly connected to the side of the side pipe, the first connecting side plate is tightly attached to the side of the sleeve, and the screw is threadedly connected to the first connecting side plate and the sleeve.

[0015] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages:
[0016] 1. This utility model sets a one-way valve at the input end of the pipeline and sets two control valves on both sides of the central connector.
