Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of cementing equipment technology, and in particular to a staged cementing device. Background Technology
[0002] A staged cementing device is a device that, based on a single cementing injection, uses a staged clamp to divide the annular cement seal into two or three sections as needed to achieve the technical requirements of cementing. This device is mainly used to avoid oil layer contamination and to achieve well workover operations without drilling plugs after cementing.
[0003] A patent specification with publication number CN222162555U discloses a bidirectional sealing staged cementing device. This technology discloses that it "includes a staged cement injector and a cementing plug. The staged cement injector has multiple circulation holes. A fixed plate is slidably installed inside the staged cement injector. A cylinder is fixedly installed at one end of the fixed plate. A top plate is fixedly installed at the end of the cylinder away from the fixed plate. A fixed ring is fixedly installed inside the staged cement injector. A baffle is fixedly installed on the inner ring of the fixed ring. A conical block is fixedly installed at one end of the cementing plug. A positioning post is fixedly installed at the end of the conical block away from the cementing plug. A positioning component for locking the positioning post is provided on the cylinder. The advantage is that the cooperation of the fixed plate, cylinder, top plate, fixed ring, and baffle facilitates the opening of the staged cement injector, thereby achieving staged cementing and facilitating the smooth completion of cementing operations."
[0004] In existing staged cementing devices, tools or small stones may fall into the device during operation due to inadequate inspection or improper measures. These objects can affect the fit between the cone block and the fixing ring. Furthermore, since the front end of the fixing plate is inverted cone-shaped, fallen objects may slide into the front end of the top plate, potentially causing the fixing plate and cone block to fail to align. This can damage the cementing device or affect its normal operation, requiring work to be suspended and the fallen objects retrieved, leading to extended operation time and increased costs. Therefore, a staged cementing device is proposed to overcome the above-mentioned defects.
[0005] To address the aforementioned problems, this application proposes a staged cementing device. Utility Model Content

[0027] Example 1
[0028] like Figures 1 to 6 As shown;
[0029] A staged cementing device includes a staged cement injector 1 and a cementing plug 2.
[0030] In this implementation plan: As disclosed in the background technology above, "At the work site, due to lax inspection or improper measures, tools or small stones may fall into the cementing device. These objects will affect the fit between the cone block and the fixing ring. Moreover, the front end of the fixing plate is inverted cone-shaped, and the fallen objects may slide into the front end of the top plate from the inverted cone shape, which may cause the fixing plate and the cone block to fail to connect, causing damage to the cementing device or affecting its normal operation. It is necessary to suspend the operation and retrieve the fallen objects, resulting in the extension of operation time and the increase of cost." In combination with this, the problem is obviously present and difficult to solve. Therefore, in order to solve this technical problem, the support plate 4 and the protrusion 12 are added to this application document.

[0036] In this embodiment, the flow of cement slurry from the circulation hole 13 is controlled and closed by moving the fixed plate 5.
[0037] In an optional embodiment: a circular hole is provided at the rear end of the fixed circular plate 14, and the cross-sectional area and depth of the circular hole are matched with the cross-sectional area and depth of the fixed column 8. An annular groove is provided on the inner wall of the circular hole inside the fixed circular plate 14, and the depth of the annular groove is matched with the vertical length of the first baffle 9.
[0038] In this embodiment, the fixed circular plate 14 can be fixedly connected to the fixed disk 5 by being inserted into the annular groove by the first baffle 9.
[0039] In an optional embodiment, the total length of the support plate 4 in the left and right directions plus the tapered support plate 3 is the same as the diameter of the fixed plate 5.
[0040] In this embodiment, the falling objects are placed on the left and right sides of the support plate 4, so that the fixed circular plate 14 can still close the circulation hole 13 even when there are falling objects.
[0041] In an optional embodiment: a square slot is provided on the inner side of the fixed column 8, the first spring 15 and the first baffle 9 are located in the square slot, and the front-to-back length of the square slot is the same as the front-to-back length of the first baffle 9. There is a protrusion at the upper end of the square slot, and the protrusion restricts the movement of the first baffle 9 in the square slot.
[0042] In this embodiment, the first baffle 9 can pass through the circular hole and engage with the annular slot to complete the connection between the fixed circular plate 14 and the fixed column 8.
[0043] According to the above, in order to ensure that the limiting post can stably pass through the fixing ring, a protrusion installed on the outside of the limiting post is also included.
[0044] In this implementation scheme: the design of the protrusion and the annular groove allows the fixed plate to stably engage the second baffle in the annular groove under high water pressure when the shear pin breaks, thus fixing the fixed plate and the fixed ring together, opening the circulation hole and improving stability.

[0048] In this embodiment, the limiting post 10 can accurately pass through the through hole in the fixing ring 7, thereby achieving the connection between the fixing plate 5 and the fixing ring 7.
[0049] Working principle and usage process of this utility model:
[0050] The staged cementing device 1 is lowered into the well to a predetermined position along with the casing string. Cementing fluid is then injected, exerting pressure on the fixed plate 5. When the pressure becomes excessive, the shear pins 6 on the outer side of the fixed plate 5 break, causing the fixed plate 5 to move towards the fixed ring 7. This allows the protrusion 12 to move within the positioning groove on the inner wall of the through-hole in the fixed ring 7. When the second baffle 11 moves into the annular groove, the second spring 17 pushes the second limiting plate 18 to move outwards towards the limiting post 10. The second limiting plate 18 then moves the second baffle 11 outwards, causing the limiting post 10 to engage with the fixed ring 7, thus connecting the fixed plate 5 and the fixed ring 7. Simultaneously, the movement of the fixed plate 5 removes the obstruction of the circulation hole 13, allowing cementing fluid to flow outwards from the circulation hole 13. Next, a secondary cementing operation is performed. The cement plug 2 is placed in the well, and the plugging fluid is used as the post-filling fluid to push the cement plug 2 towards the fixed plate 5. The fixed column 8 passes through the circular hole opened at the rear end of the cement plug 2. When the first baffle 9 moves into the annular groove, the first spring 15 pushes the first limiting plate 16 to move. The first limiting plate 16 pushes the first baffle 9 to move outward of the fixed column 8, so that the first baffle 9 is inserted into the annular groove, realizing the connection between the fixed circular plate 14 and the fixed column 8. At the same time, the rear end of the cement plug 2 is attached to the front end of the support plate 4 and the conical support circular plate 3. The outer side of the cement plug 2 blocks the circulation hole 13 opened by the staged cement injector 1, thereby realizing staged cement injection and facilitating the smooth completion of the cementing operation.
[0051] Finally, it should be noted that the above are merely preferred embodiments of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model. Although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
