[0025] Further as Figure 2 The bottom surface of mounting ring 300 is fixed with a plurality of first magnets 301 that are circumferentially distributed.

[0026] Through the installation ring 300 set, the first magnet 301 can be fixed, through the first magnet 301 set, the first magnet 301 can be mutually attracted with the second magnet 303, and then the position of the sleeve ring 302 is fixed.

[0027] Further as Figure 2As shown, a collar 302 is movably connected to the outer wall of the downhole tubing 102 near the bottom. A second magnet 303 is fixed to the top surface of the collar 302 at a position opposite to the first magnet 301. The first magnet 301 and the second magnet 303 are of opposite polarity. Rollers 304 are movably connected to the four ends of the collar 302.

[0028] By using the collar 302 and roller 304, when the collar 302 moves down, the roller 304 can contact the top of the side of the moving plate 204 near the connector 101, thereby pushing the moving plate 204 to move outward, thus providing space for the downhole tubing 102 to engage in the connector 101.

[0029] Further as Figure 2 As shown, four positioning posts 201 are fixed on the side of the movable plate 204 away from the connector 101 near the top. The four positioning posts 201 move through the outer ring 200. A connecting plate 203 is fixed to one end of each positioning post 201. A spring 202 is provided around the positioning post 201.

[0030] The positioning post 201 allows the movable plate 204 to be movably connected to the outer ring 200. The spring 202 allows the movable plate 204 to be pushed by the spring 202, thereby causing the snap-fit ​​block 205 to engage in the first snap-fit ​​hole 206 and the second snap-fit ​​hole 207, so that the connector 101 can be connected to the downhole tubing 102.

[0031] Further as Figure 2 As shown, a number of circumferentially distributed locking strips 400 are fixed to the bottom of the outer side wall of the downhole tubing 102, and a number of circumferentially distributed locking grooves 401 are opened on the top of the inner side wall of the connector 101, and the locking strips 400 are engaged in the corresponding locking grooves 401.

[0035] In summary: when connecting the downhole string 102 and the connector 101, first push the sleeve 302 linearly, the movement of the sleeve 302 makes the first magnet 301 and the second magnet 303 separate, when the sleeve 302 moves, the four rollers 304 respectively contact the top of the side of the downhole string 102 near the corresponding moving plate 204, and push the four moving plates 204 to expand outward synchronously, at this time the spring 202 is compressed, until the rollers 304 contact the vertical surface of the moving plate 204, keep the position of the sleeve 302, then clamp the downhole string 102 in the connector 101, at this time the clamping strip 400 is clamped in the clamping groove 401, adjust the position of the downhole string 102 in the connector 101, so that the first clamping hole 206 and the second clamping hole 207 correspond, then move the sleeve 302 upward, until the first magnet 301 and the second magnet 303 attract, at this time the position of the sleeve 302 is fixed by the first magnet 301 and the second magnet 303, in this process, the compressed spring 202 pushes the moving plate 204 to move, so that the clamping block 205 is clamped in the corresponding first clamping hole 206 and second clamping hole 207, so that the downhole string 102 and the connector 101 are connected, then the gauge 100 can be used to detect the size of the inner hole of the petroleum drill collar.

[0036] When separating the downhole string 102 and the connector 101, pull the sleeve 302 downward, so that the first magnet 301 and the second magnet 303 separate, then pull the sleeve 302 linearly, the four rollers 304 respectively contact the top of the side of the downhole string 102 near the corresponding moving plate 204, and push the four moving plates 204 to expand outward synchronously, at this time the spring 202 is compressed, until the rollers 304 contact the vertical surface of the moving plate 204, at this time the clamping block 205 moves out of the first clamping hole 206 and the second clamping hole 207, then pull the gauge 100, so that the connector 101 and the downhole string 102 are separated.
