[0051] The present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.
[0052] like Figures 1-14 As shown, a logging device with guiding and positioning function includes: an outer tube 1, with three strip-shaped holes 101 arranged along the axis of the outer tube 1 on its side wall, and mounting pipes 102 corresponding to the two ends of the strip-shaped holes 101 fixed inside the outer tube 1; a collector casing 2, one end of which is connected to one end of the outer tube 1, and the other end is provided with a guide head 201, and a signal collector is installed inside the collector casing 2; three elastic plates 4, one elastic plate 4 in each strip-shaped hole 101, the elastic plates 4 are installed inside the strip-shaped hole 101, and mounting posts 401 are provided at both ends of the elastic plates 4, with the two mounting posts 401 respectively installed in the two mounting pipes 102; and a drive ring 6, which is used to drive the elastic plates 4 to bend.
[0053] Signal acquisition devices are used to measure physical properties such as natural gamma rays, neutrons, and sound waves.
[0054] The signal acquisition device measures parameters such as temperature, pressure, and resistivity.
[0055] The signal acquisition device can also be an imaging device, such as a camera, used to acquire high-definition images of the well wall.
[0056] The elastic sheet 4 has mounting seats 402 at both ends, and mounting posts 401 are fixedly connected to the mounting seats 402. The outer diameter of the drive ring 6 matches the inner diameter of the outer tube 1. The drive ring 6 is installed on the inner side of the outer tube 1 away from the collector sleeve 2. The drive ring 6 is correspondingly set with the mounting post 401 at one end of the elastic sheet 4. The drive ring 6 is provided with a guide tube 601 that matches the mounting post 401. The mounting post 401 is installed on the inner side of the guide tube 601. The guide tube 601 is installed on the inner side of the mounting tube 102. The outer tube 1 is provided with a first connecting tube 5 at the end away from the collector sleeve 2. The outer diameter of the first connecting tube 5 matches the outer diameter of the outer tube 1. The inner side of the first connecting tube 5 is provided with a rotating tube 9. The inner side of the first connecting tube 5 is threaded, and the outer side of the rotating tube 9 is threaded. The rotating tube 9 is threadedly connected to the first connecting tube 5. The outer diameter of the rotating tube 9 is larger than the inner diameter of the drive ring 6. The position of the drive ring 6 is adjusted by rotating the rotating tube 9. The drive ring 6 drives the mounting post 401 at one end of the elastic plate 4 to move, and the middle end of the elastic plate 4 bends outward. The rotating tube 9 is adjusted according to the diameter of the well, which improves the application range of the device.
[0057] The inner sides of both ends of the outer tube 1 are threaded. The first connecting tube 5 is fixed with a first threaded tube 501, which is threaded to the inner side of the outer tube 1. The end of the first connecting tube 5 away from the outer tube 1 is provided with a lifting tube 3. The end of the lifting tube 3 near the first connecting tube 5 is provided with a second threaded tube 302, which is threaded to the inner side of the first connecting tube 5. A lifting rod 301 is fixed on the lifting tube 3. The axis of the lifting rod 301 is set perpendicular to the axis of the outer tube 1. The lifting rod 301 is convenient for fixing with the cable.
[0058] In some embodiments, a compression spring 10 is provided between the drive ring 6 and the mounting post 401, with the compression spring 10 located inside the guide tube 601. The compression spring 10 acts as a buffer; when the maximum deformation of the elastic plate 4 is insufficient for passage within the well, the compression spring 10 further compresses to provide the required deformation, preventing the device from getting stuck in the well and preventing damage to the elastic plate 4. A damper can be optionally installed between the compression spring 10 and the drive ring 6.
[0059] The collector sleeve 2 has internal threads on both ends. The guide head 201 is fixed with a third threaded tube 20101 at one end near the collector sleeve 2. The third threaded tube 20101 is threaded to the inside of the collector sleeve 2. The end of the guide head 201 away from the collector sleeve 2 is a spherical surface. The outer diameter of the collector sleeve 2 matches the outer diameter of the outer tube 1.
[0060] An inner tube 7 is provided inside the outer tube 1, and a limiting ring 701 is provided on the outer side of the inner tube 7. There are two limiting rings 701. One limiting ring 701 has its end face limiting the mounting seat 402 of the elastic plate 4 near the end of the collector sleeve 2, and the outer wall of the other limiting ring 701 limits the middle end of the elastic plate 4. A flange 702 is fixedly provided at the end of the inner tube 7 near the collector sleeve 2. The flange 702 has a through hole 70201 corresponding to the mounting post 401. The mounting post 401 is located inside the through hole 70201. The side wall of the limiting ring 701 has a notch 70101 that matches the mounting tube 102. The position of the notch 70101 does not correspond to the position of the through hole 70201. When installing the inner tube 7, align the notch 70101 with the mounting tube 102 and insert it. When the flange 702 contacts the mounting post 401, rotate the inner tube 7 so that the through hole 70201 of the flange 702 is aligned with the mounting post 401, so that the mounting post 401 is inserted into the through hole 70201. Tighten the second connecting tube 8 to fix the inner tube 7. The end of the inner tube 7 away from the flange 702 is located inside the drive ring 6. The inner tube 7 serves to protect the cable. One end of the limiting ring 701 limits the mounting seat 402 of the elastic sheet 4 near the collector sleeve 2 to prevent the mounting post 401 from detaching from the mounting tube 102. The outer wall of the other limiting ring 701 limits the middle end of the elastic sheet 4 to prevent the elastic sheet 4 from bending towards the inside of the outer tube 1.
[0061] A second connecting pipe 8 is provided on the inner side of the end of the outer pipe 1 near the collector sleeve 2. One end of the second connecting pipe 8 is threaded to the outer pipe 1, and the other end is fixed with a fourth threaded pipe 801; the fourth threaded pipe 801 is threaded to the collector sleeve 2. The second connecting pipe 8 serves to limit the movement of the flange 702. The fourth threaded pipe 801 facilitates connection with the collector sleeve 2.
[0062] The fourth threaded pipe 801 matches the internal thread of the first connecting pipe 5. The arrangement of the second connecting pipe 8 and the first connecting pipe 5 facilitates the combined use of multiple devices.
[0063] like Figure 1 The image shows the usage status of a single device.
[0064] like Figure 2 As shown, there are two outer tubes 1, which are arranged coaxially. Each outer tube 1 is connected to a collector sleeve 2. The inner side of the first connecting pipe 5 at one end of the outer tube 1 is threaded to the fourth threaded pipe 801 of the collector sleeve 2 of the adjacent outer tube 1.
[0065] like Figure 3 As shown, there are two outer tubes 1, which are coaxially arranged. Each outer tube 1 is connected to a collector sleeve 2. The first connecting pipe 5 at one end of the outer tube 1 is connected to the fourth threaded pipe 801 of the collector sleeve 2 of the adjacent outer tube 1 through a universal coupling 11.
[0066] Work process:
[0067] When implementing this solution, the position of the drive ring 6 is adjusted according to the diameter of the well, thereby adjusting the bending degree of the elastic plate 4. It is suitable for logging work of wells with different diameters, thus broadening the application range of the device. When the device moves during drilling, if the well wall is uneven, the elastic plate 4 can undergo elastic deformation to prevent damage to the device, and it can always be set coaxially with the well.
[0068] The elastic plate 4 serves a dual function of guiding and supporting, and the installation and disassembly of the elastic plate 4 are convenient through the mounting posts 401 at both ends. The inner tube 7 is moved, and then the mounting post 401 away from the drive ring 6 is moved in the direction of the drive ring 6 to make it detach from the tube, which can complete the disassembly and improve maintenance efficiency.
[0069] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this utility model, and not to limit it.
