Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of oil-based drilling fluid technology, specifically to a filter device for producing emulsifiers for oil-based drilling fluids. Background Technology
[0002] Oil-based drilling fluids are drilling fluid systems with oil as the continuous phase. Their main components include oil, water, organic clay, and oil-soluble chemical treatment agents. Oil-based drilling fluids are primarily used in specialized wells, such as coring or complex directional wells, due to their strong inhibition and high-temperature stability, which makes them perform well under these complex conditions. During the production of oil-based drilling fluids, in the process of producing emulsifiers, filtration devices are needed to purify the emulsion and improve its quality. In existing technologies, when filtering emulsifiers for oil-based drilling fluids, the emulsion solution to be purified is filtered through filter paper or activated carbon filters to remove impurities. With increased filtration, the filter components need to be disassembled and cleaned periodically. However, in some filtration devices, filter residue accumulates directly on the surface of the filter components during use, leading to a high probability of clogging and requiring frequent cleaning.

[0019] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0020] Please see Figure 1-4 This embodiment provides a technical solution: a filtration device for producing emulsifiers for oil-based drilling fluids, including a filter cylinder 1, which provides space for filtering the emulsifier. An inlet pipe 3 is provided at the upper inlet of the filter cylinder 1 to facilitate the entry of the emulsifier into the filter cylinder 1. An outlet pipe 2 is provided at the lower outlet of the filter cylinder 1 to facilitate the discharge of the filtered emulsifier from the filter cylinder 1. A filter cartridge 4 is provided inside the filter cylinder 1 to filter the emulsifier and purify it. A microcontroller 8 is provided at the lower end of the outer arc surface of the filter cylinder 1. The input terminal of the microcontroller 8 is electrically connected to an external power source to control the start and stop of the entire device. A pressure sensor 9 is provided inside the conical guide ring at the lower end of the filter cylinder 1. A pressure sensor 10 is connected in series in the middle of the inlet pipe 3. The output terminals of the pressure sensors 9 and 10 are electrically connected to the input terminal of the microcontroller 8 to detect the water pressure at the inlet and outlet of the filter cylinder 1 and determine the degree of blockage inside the filter cartridge 4. The device is characterized by further including a rotating mechanism 5.
[0021] Rotating mechanism 5 includes an upper turntable 51, a slot 52, and a lower turntable 53. The upper turntable 51 is rotatably connected to the upper end of the filter cylinder 1 via a sealed bearing 1. The inner arc surface of the upper turntable 51 is rotatably connected to the outer arc surface of the inlet pipe 3 via a sealed bearing 2. The lower surface of the upper turntable 51 is provided with a slot 52. The lower turntable 53 is rotatably connected to the lower end of the filter cylinder 1 via a sealed bearing 3. The filter cylinder 4 is threaded into the threaded hole in the middle of the lower turntable 53. The upper end of the filter cylinder 4 is inserted into the slot 52. When the upper turntable 51 rotates, it drives the filter cylinder 4 and the lower turntable 53 to rotate, causing the emulsifier to move relative to the filter cylinder 4. The emulsifier is used to flush the inside of the filter cylinder 4, causing the filter residue to detach from the inner wall of the filter cylinder 4. The rotating mechanism 5 also includes insertion posts 54, which are respectively set on the top wall of the slot 52. The insertion posts 54 are inserted into the insertion holes on the upper surface of the filter cylinder 4, restricting the relative movement of the filter cylinder 4 and the upper turntable 51. For rotation, the rotating mechanism 5 also includes a sealing gasket 55, which is set on the top wall of the slot 52 to seal between the upper turntable 51 and the filter cartridge 4. The rotating mechanism 5 also includes an external gear ring 56, a gear 57 and a rotating column 58. The external gear ring 56 is set on the outer arc surface of the upper turntable 51. The upper surface of the filter cartridge 1 is provided with a motor 7. The lower end of the output shaft of the motor 7 is provided with a rotating column 58. The lower end of the rotating column 58 is provided with a gear 57. The gear 57 is meshed with the external gear ring 56. The input end of the motor 7 is electrically connected to the output end of the microcontroller 8. When the motor 7 is started, the output shaft of the motor 7 drives the rotating column 58 and the gear 57 to rotate. Through the meshing connection between the gear 57 and the external gear ring 56, the external gear ring 56 drives the upper turntable 51 to rotate, providing power for the rotation of the upper turntable 51. The inner arc surface of the filter cartridge 4 is provided with a spiral blade 6 to guide the direction of liquid movement, so that the liquid carries the filter cake to the lower end of the filter cartridge 4.
[0022] The working principle of the filtration device for producing emulsifiers for oil-based drilling fluids provided by this utility model is as follows: During the production of emulsifiers for oil-based drilling fluids, the emulsifier enters the filter cylinder 1 through the inlet pipe 3. After being filtered by the filter cylinder 4, the emulsifier is purified and finally discharged from the outlet pipe 2. During the emulsifier filtration process, pressure sensor 9 detects the water pressure at the outlet, and pressure sensor 10 detects the water pressure at the inlet. The microcontroller 8 compares the water pressure at the inlet and outlet. When the water pressure difference is large, it indicates that the filter residue inside the filter cylinder 4 is blocked. At this time, the microcontroller 8 starts the motor 7. The output shaft of machine 7 drives the rotating column 58 and gear 57 to rotate. Through the meshing connection between gear 57 and external gear ring 56, the external gear ring 56 drives the upper rotating disk 51 to rotate. The insertion post 54 is inserted into the insertion hole on the upper surface of the filter cartridge 4 to restrict the relative rotation between the filter cartridge 4 and the upper rotating disk 51. The upper rotating disk 51 drives the filter cartridge 4 and the lower rotating disk 53 to rotate. The emulsifier moves relative to the filter cartridge 4 and uses the emulsifier to flush the inside of the filter cartridge 4, so that the filter cake is separated from the inner wall of the filter cartridge 4 and concentrated at the lower end of the filter cartridge 4 under the guidance of the spiral blade 6, reducing the impact of the filter cake on the filtration efficiency and reducing the cleaning frequency of the filter cartridge 4.
[0023] It is worth noting that the microcontroller 8 disclosed in the above embodiments can be a PIC16F1823-I / P model microcontroller, while the motor 7, pressure sensor 1 9, and pressure sensor 2 10 can be freely configured according to the actual application scenario. The motor 7 can be an HC-KFS model servo motor, and both pressure sensor 1 9 and pressure sensor 2 10 can be DJYL-SX model pressure transmitters. The microcontroller 8 controls the operation of the motor 7, pressure sensor 1 9, and pressure sensor 2 10 using methods commonly used in the prior art.
