[0026] Example
[0027] This implementation example Figure 1 , Figure 2 The diagram shows a wellhead sealing packing lubrication device, comprising a housing, a sealing cover, and a lubricating body 5. The housing of this lubrication device is tubular, and the tubular housing is installed on the upper part of the wellhead blowout preventer (not shown in the diagram). The housing includes a first housing 1 and a second housing 2, both of which are semi-tubular, forming a tubular housing. Sealing and fixing devices are fixed at the junctions of the first housing 1 and the second housing 3 on both sides. Specifically, in this embodiment, the sealing and fixing device is a vertical connecting and fixing block 6 extending radially outward from the housing. Bolt holes 7 are provided on the connecting and fixing block 6. The first housing 1 and the second housing 2 are connected and fixed by bolts and nuts, thereby fixing the position of the housing. Alternatively, the fixing device can be configured as a locking mechanism to fasten and fix the first housing 1 and the second housing 3. In this embodiment, there are two connecting and fixing blocks 6 on each side of the housing; however, the number can be more than two depending on the height of the housing. Sealing strips (not shown in the diagram) are fixed between the housing and the wellhead blowout preventer, and at the junctions of the first housing 1 and the second housing 2.
[0028] A sealing cover is provided on the top of the housing. The sealing cover has a light rod hole 9 in the center for the light rod 8 to pass through. In order to facilitate the installation of the sealing cover on the light rod 8, the sealing cover is also divided into two parts, namely a first sealing cover 3 and a second sealing cover 4 that are axially symmetrical. The light rod hole 9 is located in the center of the sealing cover formed by the combination of the first sealing cover 3 and the second sealing cover 4. A sealing strip is fixed between the housing and the sealing cover.
[0029] like Figure 2As shown, the lubricating body 5 is arranged in the shell, and the lubricating body 5 surrounds the polished rod 8. In this embodiment, the lubricating body includes a first semi-cylindrical lubricating body and a second semi-cylindrical lubricating body, and the first lubricating body and the second lubricating body are axially provided with a through hole at the center axis of the cylinder formed by the first lubricating body and the second lubricating body, and the polished rod passes through the through hole, and the diameter of the through hole is the same as the diameter of the polished rod. The structure of the lubricating body 5 can also be a cylindrical body, and the lubricating body is arranged on the polished rod through a vertical gap provided at the radial direction of the cylindrical body, and the diameter of the through hole is the same as the diameter of the polished rod. In this embodiment, the lubricating body 5 is preferably an oil-soaked sponge, and the lubricant can be lithium grease or other lubricants. When the polished rod 8 reciprocates up and down, the lubricating body 5 is driven by the polished rod 8 to move up and down and be slightly extruded. The slow extrusion of the lubricating body 5 causes the lubricant to adhere to the polished rod 8, and the lubricant is brought to the sealing filler of the blowout preventer by the polished rod 8 to lubricate the sealing filler. In order to further limit the position of the lubricating body 5 and prevent it from falling out, a transverse limiting rod 10 is arranged above the lubricating body 5, and the limiting rod 10 is detachably arranged through the shell. When the lubricating body 5 needs to be replaced, the sealing cover is opened, the limiting rod 10 is removed, and the lubricating body 5 can be taken out for replacement. In this embodiment, the limiting rod 10 is two, which are arranged on both sides of the polished rod.
[0030] In this embodiment, the shell and the sealing cover do not have special requirements, and only need to meet certain mechanical properties and corrosion resistance. PVC, PE and other plastic materials, or cast iron, carbon steel, stainless steel and other metal materials can be selected.
[0031] When the present embodiment is used, the pumping unit does not need to be stopped. The first shell 1 and the second shell 2 with the same size are arranged on the blowout preventer at the wellhead, the shells are combined and fixed by bolts and nuts, the upper part of the blowout preventer and the shell are sealed by a sealing strip, the lubricating body is arranged in the shell, and the sealing cover is arranged at the upper end of the shell. The polished rod 8 passes through the device. The sealing strips arranged between the shell and the sealing cover, between the shell and the blowout preventer, and between the first shell 1 and the second shell 2 form a sealed space in the shell. When the polished rod 8 reciprocates up and down, the lubricant slowly extruded from the lubricating body 5 is brought into the sealing filler of the blowout preventer to play a lubricating role. The limiting rod 10 is arranged above the lubricating body 5 to limit the position of the lubricating body 5 and prevent it from falling out. During use, the sealing cover can be opened to add lubricant to the lubricating body 5 or directly replace the lubricating body 5. When the lubricating device needs to be replaced, the pumping unit does not need to be stopped and unloaded, and the lubricating device can be directly replaced.
