[0020] Through the above technical scheme, the scraper is provided with the scraper blade 9 which is always in a compressed state when not being pressed, and is located inside the body, so that the scraper blade 9 will not be scratched during the construction process, reducing the construction risk and equipment loss, and adopting a 360-degree full coverage design, the inner wall of the casing can be completely covered when scraping is needed, improving the scraping efficiency, and the unique pressure relief mechanism design can directly press and knock off the ball seat 12 when the liquid in the pipe string cannot be discharged or the oil jacket pressure is unbalanced, achieving oil jacket balance, making the scraper blade 9 of the scraper safely retract, and effectively improving the safety of the construction, and the design of the reverse circulation mechanism can establish a circulation system during construction, which is helpful to keep the well clean and improve the smoothness and effect of the construction.
[0021] Specifically, the number of piston cylinders 6 is two, and the upper and lower piston cylinders 6 are slidably arranged on the central pipe 2.
[0022] Through the above technical scheme, when the pipe string is being pressed, the hydraulic pressure acts on the upper and lower piston cylinders 6, the upper piston cylinder 6 moves upward, and the lower piston cylinder 6 moves downward, and this reverse movement provides a basis for the extension of the scraper blade 9.
[0023] Specifically, one end of the spring 5 is connected with the inner wall of the upper joint 1, and the other end of the spring 5 is connected with the inner wall of the piston cylinder 6.
[0024] Through the above technical scheme, the spring 5 plays a key role in elastic support and reset, and when not being pressed, the spring 5 is in a natural stretching or less compressed state, maintaining the scraper blade 9 in a compressed state in the central pipe 2, ensuring that the tool will not accidentally extend the scraper blade 9 and cause scratching during the process of lowering into the casing, and when the scraping operation is completed and the pressure is released, the spring 5 will push the piston cylinder 6 to the initial position by its own elastic potential, so that the scraper blade 9 is smoothly retracted.
[0025] Specifically, the number of springs 5 is two, and the upper and lower ends of the central pipe 2 penetrate the springs 5.
[0026] Through the technical scheme, when the upper and lower piston cylinders 6 move, the two piston cylinders 6 can apply force to the two springs 5 respectively.
[0027] Specifically, the number of leaf springs 10 is two, and the two leaf springs 10 are symmetrically arranged with the median line of the scraper blade 9 as the axis of symmetry.
[0028] Through the technical scheme, the symmetrically arranged leaf springs 10 can make the scraper blade 9 bear force evenly during the extension and retraction process. When the piston cylinder 6 moves and the two leaf springs 10 rebound from the contracted state, the scraper blade 9 is pushed to extend.
[0029] Specifically, the shape and size of the outer wall of the scraper blade 9 match the shape and size of the inner wall of the central pipe 2, and the outer wall of the scraper blade 9 is in close contact with the inner wall of the central pipe 2.
[0030] Through the technical scheme, the connection effect between the scraper blade 9 and the central pipe 2 is strengthened, and the scraper blade 9 can move in the central pipe 2.
[0031] Specifically, under the action of the upper and lower piston cylinders 6, the scraper blade 9 is in a compressed state when not pressed, and the maximum outer diameter of the scraper blade 9 is less than or equal to the outer diameter of the body.
[0032] Through the technical scheme, the scraper is more safe and smooth when running in the casing. Since the scraper blade 9 does not extend out of the body, it avoids scratching the inner wall of the casing during running in, reduces the probability of accidents such as sticking, and creates conditions for subsequent scraping operations, for example, even if the casing is slightly deformed in a complex casing environment, the scraper blade 9 that does not extend out can also follow the tool smoothly, creating conditions for subsequent scraping operations.
[0033] In use, first, when scraping a deformed casing well, the tool is connected to the lowermost end of the pipe string. At this time, the scraper blade 9 is in a compressed state under the action of the springs 5 and the upper and lower piston cylinders 6, and the maximum outer diameter thereof is less than or equal to the outer diameter of the body. During running in, the pipe string can be back circulated. When the tool reaches the designed position, the pipe string is being pressed, the springs 5 and the upper and lower piston cylinders 6 move upward and downward under the action of hydraulic pressure, the scraper blade 9 extends out of the body under the action of the leaf springs 10 and is completely in close contact with the inner wall of the casing. The pipe string is raised and lowered, the scraper blade 9 cleans the inner wall of the casing, and after scraping is completed, the pressure is released, the springs 5 compress the upper and lower piston cylinders 6, the scraper blade 9 is pressed into the body, and the outer diameter thereof is the same as or smaller than the outer diameter of the body. The well is thoroughly back washed, the pipe string and the scraper in the well are pulled out, and the construction is completed. This completes all the work. The contents not described in detail in the specification belong to the existing technology known to those skilled in the art.
[0034] Although the embodiments of the present application have been shown and described, it is to be understood that for the purpose of the present application, the embodiments can be changed, modified, replaced and varied in many ways without departing from the principles and spirit of the present application, and the scope of the present application is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
