AI Technical Summary
In existing technologies, the wire rope can cause torsional deformation or damage to the coiled tubing when the load changes, resulting in a lack of coordination between the wire rope and the coiled tubing.
A coiled tubing traction device was designed. By setting a rotating sleeve between the wire rope joint and the conversion sleeve, the rotating sleeve and the pin shaft are used to act as a universal joint, ensuring that the rotation and bending of the wire rope do not affect the coiled tubing. The cooperation between the outer cone sleeve and the positioning sleeve causes the inner cone to move outward when the nut is tightened, and the outer cone sleeve expands to press the coiled tubing, thereby increasing the tension.
This solution addresses the impact of wire rope on the rotation of the coiled tubing under varying loads, preventing torsional deformation and damage, and improving the coordination and tensile strength between the wire rope and the coiled tubing.

[0009] The steel pipe has windows cut into its wall.
[0010] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: A rotating sleeve is set between the steel rope joint and the conversion sleeve. The rotating sleeve cooperates with the pin to act as a universal joint. When the coiled tubing is pulled, the rotation and bending of the steel wire rope will not affect the coiled tubing. This solves the problem that the rotation of the steel wire rope affects the coiled tubing when the load changes. The positioning sleeve is placed on the outside of the outer cone sleeve, so that when the nut is tightened, the inner cone head moves outward, and the outer cone sleeve can only expand outward to press the coiled tubing. The positioning sleeve also plays a role in increasing the pulling force. Attached Figure Description
