[0014] It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features described in these embodiments of the present invention can be combined with each other. The technical solutions of the present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. The present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments described below.

[0015] It should be understood that the same or similar reference numerals in the accompanying drawings of the embodiments correspond to the same or similar components. In the description of this utility model, it should be understood that if terms such as "upper," "lower," "front," "rear," "left," "right," "top," and "bottom" indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings, they are only for the convenience of describing this utility model and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or component referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, the terms describing positional relationships in the accompanying drawings are for illustrative purposes only and should not be construed as limiting this patent. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms according to the specific circumstances.

[0016] In one embodiment, such as Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, the plug valve includes a valve body 1. A lower valve seat 2 is located near the right side of the inner cavity of the valve body 1, and an upper valve seat 4 is located on the left side of the lower valve seat 2. The upper valve seat 4 is located near the left side of the inner cavity of the valve body 1. A first O-ring and a retaining ring 9 are provided on the outer edge of the lower valve seat 2, and a second O-ring and a retaining ring 13 are provided on the outer edge of the upper valve seat 4. A ball core 3 is provided between the lower valve seat 2 and the upper valve seat 4. A switch 5 is provided at the top of the ball core 3. A plane bearing 15 is provided near the bottom of the outer edge of the switch 5. A first hole clamp 12 is provided on both the left and right sides of the outer edge of the ball core 3. A splicing ring 7 is provided on the left side of the upper valve seat 4. A support ring 8 is provided on the left side of the splicing ring 7. A washer 6 is provided between the splicing ring 7 and the upper valve seat 4. A second hole clamp 14 is provided on the splicing ring 7. Two springs 10 are provided on the right side of the washer 6. An O-ring 11 is provided near the top of the outer edge of the switch 5.

[0017] The valve body 1 and each part need to be assembled after passing the inspection, each part of the valve core is cleaned and coated with neutral rust-proof oil, and is assembled into the valve body 1 according to the requirements. When the hydraulic shell test is performed, the valve needs to be in a semi-closed state, the low pressure is 1.7 MPa, the high pressure is greater than or equal to 68.9 MPa, the initial pressure is kept for 3 minutes, the pressure is released to 0, and the final pressure is kept for greater than or equal to 10 minutes. The high and low pressures are tested respectively, and no leakage phenomenon should be observed. When the lower working pressure test is performed, the valve needs to be in a closed state, the low pressure is 1.7 MPa, the high pressure is greater than or equal to 68.9 MPa, and the pressure keeping time is greater than or equal to 5 minutes. During this period, no leakage phenomenon should be observed. After the high pressure test, the pressure in the empty cavity is released, and the product action and sealing should be intact.

[0018] The ball valve is supported and positioned by the upper and lower ball seats and the spring 10. The spring force makes the ball valve and the ball seat have a certain pre-tightening force. When the ball valve is in an open state, the drilling fluid passes through the faucet valve water eye without obstruction. When it is closed, the ball surface completely seals the water eye, and the inner annular portion pressure acts on the ball valve, so that the ball valve and the valve seat are in a high-pressure sealing state, thereby realizing the safety protection effect.

[0019] Working principle: when starting to use, first check whether the threads of the upper and lower joints meet the requirements, pay attention to whether the "open" and "close" marked on the valve body 1 of the faucet valve of the kelly bar are consistent with the actual "open" and "close" positions of the ball valve and whether they are effective. The faucet valve should be subjected to a hydrostatic test under the rated working pressure. When well kick or blowout occurs in the well, the upper or lower faucet valve of the kelly bar should be closed nearby. When well kick or blowout occurs, the upper faucet valve should be closed first, and then the kelly bar is lifted to close the blowout preventer, so that the water hose is prevented from being broken. If the kelly bar back pressure valve fails or the upper faucet valve is not closed, the lower faucet valve can be closed. Before the kelly bar is removed, the lower faucet valve should be closed to prevent the drilling fluid from splashing on the drilling platform. During use, to ensure the flexibility of the ball valve, the faucet valve should be opened and closed regularly (every three days) to prevent the ball valve from being stuck. After use, the faucet valve should be washed and subjected to non-destructive testing, pressure sealing test and pressure opening and closing test. The ball valve of the product that passes the test is stored in a ventilated and dry place after being coated with rust-proof and corrosion-resistant grease at both ends. If one of the non-destructive testing and pressure sealing test and pressure opening and closing test is unqualified, the faucet valve must be disassembled and replaced with parts, and then retested after assembly. During transportation, attention should be paid to protect the threads.

[0020] Any combination of the technical features of the above-described embodiments can be made, and to make the description concise, all possible combinations of the technical features in the above-described embodiments are not described, but as long as the combination of the technical features does not exist, it should be considered as the scope of the description.

[0021] The above-described embodiments only express several implementation manners of the utility model, the description is more specific and detailed, but can not therefore be understood as the limitation of the utility model patent range. It should be pointed out that for ordinary skilled person in the art, without departing from the utility model concept, several modifications and improvements can be made, which belong to the protection range of the utility model. Therefore, the protection range of the utility model patent should be subject to the appended claims.
