[0037] In view of the problems in the prior art, the embodiment provides a flexible pipe winding and unwinding device and a flexible pipe installation system.

[0038] As shown in Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 6 , the utility model provides a flexible pipe winding and unwinding device, which comprises a coiled pipe assembly 100 and a guide assembly 200, the guide assembly 200 comprises a guide support seat 210 and a guide support 220, the guide support seat 210 and the coiled pipe assembly 100 are arranged at intervals on a support surface 500, and the guide support 220 is arranged on the guide support seat 210.

[0039] The guiding support 220 comprises a support body 230, an arc-shaped track portion 240 and a guiding limiting portion 250. The arc-shaped track portion 240 is arranged on the support body 230 and is vertically arranged. The guiding limiting portion 250 is arranged on the support body 230 and is located outside the arc-shaped track portion 240. An arc-shaped guiding channel is formed between the arc-shaped track portion 240 and the guiding limiting portion 250. One end of the guiding channel is arranged above a clamping device 300 of a flexible pipe installation system. The clamping device 300 is arranged above a well hole 600 of an oil well.

[0040] The arc-shaped track portion 240 is arranged on the support body 230 and is vertically arranged. The guiding limiting portion 250 is arranged on the support body 230 and is located outside the arc-shaped track portion 240. An arc-shaped guiding channel is formed between the arc-shaped track portion 240 and the guiding limiting portion 250. One end of the guiding channel is arranged above a clamping device 300 of a flexible pipe installation system. The clamping device 300 is arranged above a well hole 600 of an oil well.

[0041] Specifically, the support surface 500 can be an oil well platform or other ground or building facilities having a fixed support function. The coil pipe assembly 100 is arranged apart from the guiding assembly 200. For example, the guiding assembly 200 can be arranged on the left side of the coil pipe assembly 100. The flexible pipe 400 can be pre-wound on the coil pipe assembly 100, so that the flexible pipe 400 on the coil pipe assembly 100 can have enough space to pass around the arc-shaped track portion 240 of the guiding assembly 200 after being unwound.

[0042] The guiding support 220 is used to guide the unwound flexible pipe 400 on the coil pipe assembly 100 in an arc shape, so that the flexible pipe 400 coming out of the guiding channel can pass through the clamping device 300 in a vertical posture and enter the well hole 600 below. The clamping device 300 is used to clamp or loosen the flexible pipe 400.

[0043] The arc-shaped track portion 240 is vertically arranged, that is, the arc-shaped track portion 240 extends in a vertical plane, so that the arc-shaped guiding channel formed between the arc-shaped track portion 240 and the guiding limiting portion 250 also extends in the vertical plane.

[0044] The unwound flexible pipe 400 can pass through the guiding channel, and the flexible pipe 400 in the guiding channel can pass around or through the surface of the arc-shaped track portion 240, so as to guide the flexible pipe 400 to the clamping device 300 through the arc-shaped track portion 240, so that the flexible pipe 400 entering the clamping device 300 is in a vertical posture (i.e. a vertical posture), effectively avoiding the flexible pipe 400 being damaged by friction with the clamping device 300.

[0045] In combination Figure 6 As shown, the well hole 600 of the oil well can be directly below the clamping device 300, and the support surface 500 is provided with a through hole structure for the flexible pipe 400 to pass through.

[0046] In this embodiment, the flexible pipe 400 can be lowered into the wellbore 600 of the oil well by the following way, for example, the coiled tubing assembly 100 can be rotated counterclockwise to unwind the flexible pipe 400 wound on the coiled tubing assembly 100, the end of the flexible pipe 400 passes through the arc-shaped guide channel between the arc-shaped track portion 240 and the guide limiting portion 250 of the guide support 220, and moves around the arc direction of the arc-shaped track portion 240. Since one end of the guide channel is arranged above the clamping device 300 of the flexible pipe installation system, and the clamping device 300 is arranged above the wellbore 600 of the oil well, the flexible pipe 400 passing around the arc-shaped track portion 240 can smoothly pass through the clamping device 300 and then enter the wellbore 600. The clamping device 300 is used to adjust the lowering speed of the flexible pipe 400 into the wellbore 600 and assist the connection of adjacent two sections of the flexible pipe by clamping or loosening the flexible pipe 400, so as to realize the lowering of the flexible pipe 400 into the wellbore 600, and prepare for the subsequent oil and gas transportation work of the oil well. When the flexible pipe 400 needs to be taken out after the oil and gas transportation work is completed, the coiled tubing assembly 100 can be rotated clockwise to pull out the flexible pipe 400 from the wellbore 600. In the process of pulling out, the flexible pipe 400 is wound on the coiled tubing assembly 100 again after passing through the clamping device 300 and the guide channel, so as to realize the folding work of the flexible pipe 400.

[0047] In the process of lowering the flexible pipe 400 on the coil assembly 100 into the well hole 600, since the guide support 220 is arranged on the support surface 500 such as an oil well platform by being spaced apart from the coil assembly 100 through the guide support seat 210, and the clamping device 300 is arranged between the guide channel and the well hole 600 of the oil well, in other words, the bottom end of the guide channel (or the arc track portion 240), the clamping device 300 and the well hole 600 are in a straight line, the flexible pipe 400 unwound from the coil assembly 100 is arc-guided through the cooperation of the guide limiting portion 250 and the arc track portion 240, so that the flexible pipe 400 coming out of the bottom end of the guide channel can pass through the clamping device 300 in a vertical posture and enter the well hole 600, thereby not only effectively reducing the bending angle of the flexible pipe 400 between the coil assembly 100 and the clamping device 300 to improve the straightness of the flexible pipe 400 entering the well hole 600, avoiding the wear between the bent flexible pipe 400 and the inner wall of the well hole 600, and improving the lowering effect of the flexible pipe 400, but also effectively reducing the wear between the flexible pipe 400 and the clamping device 300 to ensure the quality of the flexible pipe 400 entering the well hole 600, thereby reducing the risk of leakage of the flexible pipe 400 due to excessive pressure during oil and gas transportation. Furthermore, since the guide limiting portion 250 is located outside the arc track portion 240, the guide limiting portion 250 can also limit the flexible pipe 400 to prevent the flexible pipe 400 from being separated from the guide support 220, thereby ensuring the movement reliability of the flexible pipe 400 during the process of passing through the guide channel.

[0048] Optionally, in combination with Figure 3 As shown in the figure, the support body 230 is a fan-shaped support structure having a first arc-shaped guide surface, and the arc track portion 240 includes a plurality of first guide wheel structures 241, which are arranged on the support body 230 along the first arc-shaped guide surface, and the plurality of first guide wheel structures 241 are used for the flexible pipe 400 to pass through.

[0049] Specifically, in combination with Figure 2 As shown in the figure, along Figure 2 the plane of the XZ axis of the coordinate system, the support body 230 can be substantially fan-shaped, so the support body 230 is a fan-shaped support structure; and the arrangement direction of the plurality of first guide wheel structures 241 can be an arc surface, which can be a first arc-shaped guide surface.

[0050] The plurality of first guide wheel structures 241 can be spaced apart along the first arc-shaped guide surface, and the curvature of the first arc-shaped guide surface can be greater than or equal to 45 degrees.

[0051] In the optional embodiment, the first guide wheel structures 241 are arranged on the support body 230 along the first arc-shaped guide surface, so that the flexible pipe 400 can move along the first guide wheel structures 241 arranged in an arc shape when penetrating into the guide channel, and the first guide wheel structures 241 have a certain support and guiding effect on the flexible pipe 400, so as to improve the moving speed and smoothness of the flexible pipe 400 in the guide channel.

[0052] Optionally, in combination with Figure 4 As shown in the figure, the first guide wheel structure 241 comprises a first pin shaft 2410 and a first guide wheel 2411, the first pin shaft 2410 is arranged in the support body 230, and the first guide wheel 2411 is sleeved on the first pin shaft 2410, and the first guide wheel 2411 is used for rotating around the axis of the first pin shaft 2410.

[0053] The middle part of the first guide wheel 2411 is provided with a first annular groove 24110, the axis of the first annular groove 24110 coincides with the axis of the first pin shaft 2410, and the first annular groove 24110 is used for the flexible pipe 400 to pass through.

[0054] Specifically, the support body 230 can comprise two first arc-shaped plates arranged at intervals, and the two first arc-shaped plates can be arranged along Figure 2 the Y-axis direction of the coordinate system; each first guide wheel structure 241 can comprise a first pin shaft 2410 and a first guide wheel 2411, and the two ends of the first pin shaft 2410 are connected to the two first arc-shaped plates of the support body 230, wherein the first pin shaft 2410 can rotate relative to the two first arc-shaped plates, or can be fixedly connected with the first arc-shaped plates; the first guide wheel 2411 can be sleeved outside the first pin shaft 2410, and the first guide wheel 2411 can rotate around the axis of the first pin shaft 2410.

[0055] The middle part of the first guide wheel 2411 is provided with a first annular groove 24110, which can be a gradually changing groove structure, for example, the diameter of the two ends to the middle part of the first guide wheel 2411 is smaller, in other words, the diameter of the two ends of the first guide wheel 2411 is larger than the diameter of the middle part of the first guide wheel 2411; wherein the axis of the first pin shaft 2410 (see the dot line in the figure) is represented by the letter G. The central axis of the first annular groove 24110 coincides with the central axis of the first pin shaft 2410. Figure 4

[0056] ​In this optional embodiment, since the first guide wheel 2411 is configured to rotate around the axis of the first pin shaft 2410, when the flexible pipe 400 passes through the first guide wheel structure 241, the movement of the flexible pipe 400 can drive the first guide wheel 2411 to rotate around the axis of the first pin shaft 2410 by friction, so as to reduce the friction between the flexible pipe 400 and the first guide wheel 2411, and ensure the smooth movement of the flexible pipe 400 when passing through the surface of the first guide wheel 2411. In addition, since the middle part of each first guide wheel 2411 is provided with a first annular groove 24110, the flexible pipe 400 can pass through the first annular groove 24110 of the first guide wheel 2411, so as to limit the flexible pipe 400 through the first annular groove 24110, so as to reduce the offset amount generated by the flexible pipe 400 when moving on the surface of the arc-shaped track part 240.

[0057] Optionally, in combination with Figure 5 As shown in the drawings, the first guide wheel structure 241 further comprises a buffer structure 2412, the first guide wheel 2411 has a first through hole penetrating through the axial direction, the first pin shaft 2410 is arranged in the first through hole, the buffer structure 2412 is arranged between the inner wall of the first through hole and the first pin shaft 2410, and the first guide wheel 2411 is configured to move along the radial direction of the first guide wheel 2411 to deform the buffer structure 2412.

[0058] Specifically, Figure 5 The first guide wheel structure 241 is configured to move along the radial direction of the first guide wheel 2411 to deform the buffer structure 2412. Figure 5 The cross-sectional structure diagram of the first guide wheel structure 241 is obtained by cutting the first guide wheel structure 241 along the plane where the XZ axis of the coordinate system is located. The first guide wheel 2411 has a first through hole, the axis of the first through hole coincides with the axis of the first guide wheel 2411, and the inner diameter of the first through hole is larger than the first pin shaft 2410, so as to arrange the buffer structure 2412 between the first pin shaft 2410 and the inner wall of the first through hole.

[0059] The buffer structure 2412 can be an annular ring structure with elasticity, for example, a rubber ring, a silica gel ring or the like with elastic properties. The inner wall of the buffer structure 2412 can be connected with the first pin shaft 2410, and the inner wall of the buffer structure 2412 can be connected with the inner wall of the first through hole of the first guide wheel 2411, so as to avoid the buffer structure 2412 from being separated from the first through hole.

[0060] In addition, the buffer structure 2412 can also be a compression spring structure, for example, the compression spring structure is arranged along the radial direction of the first guide wheel 2411, and the two ends of the compression spring structure are respectively connected with the first pin shaft 2410 and the inner wall of the first through hole of the first guide wheel 2411, so as to avoid the buffer structure 2412 from being separated from the first through hole.

[0061] In the optional embodiment, the buffer structure 2412 is arranged between the inner wall of the first through hole of the first guide wheel 2411 and the outer wall of the first pin shaft 2410. When the flexible pipe 400 passes through the first guide wheel structure 241, the flexible pipe 400 will exert pressure on the first guide wheel 2411 under the action of gravity. At this time, the buffer structure 2412 is compressed to deform, thereby buffering the flexible pipe 400, reducing the hard contact between the flexible pipe 400 and the first guide wheel 2411, and further reducing the friction between the flexible pipe 400 and the first guide wheel 2411, so as to ensure the arc-shaped guiding effect of the arc-shaped track part 240 on the flexible pipe 400 and improve the smoothness and safety of the movement of the flexible pipe 400.

When the flexible pipe 400 passes into the guiding channel, the plurality of first limiting rods 2501 arranged at intervals in an arc shape not only have a certain guiding effect on the flexible pipe 400, but also enable the flexible pipe 400 to pass through the clamping device 300 in a vertical posture from the bottom end of the guiding channel, and the plurality of first limiting rods 2501 also have a limiting effect on the flexible pipe 400, thereby effectively preventing the flexible pipe 400 from being separated from the guiding support 220.

The two ends of the telescopic rod 264, for example, the upper and lower ends, are connected with the lifting plate 263 and the lifting base 261 respectively.

[0074] The telescopic rod 264 can be elongated with the lifting action of the lifting plate 263, or shortened with the lowering action of the lifting plate 263.

[0075] The telescopic rod 264 can adopt the following structure, for example, the telescopic rod 264 comprises a plurality of telescopic sections arranged in its axial direction, and two adjacent telescopic sections are connected in a sliding sleeve manner, for example, when the lifting plate 263 is lowered, part of a telescopic section can slide into the adjacent other telescopic section; when the lifting plate 263 is raised, part of a telescopic section can slide out of the adjacent other telescopic section.

[0076] In this optional embodiment, since the plurality of telescopic rods 264 are circumferentially spaced around the lifting driving device 262, in other words, the lifting driving device 262 is located in the region between the plurality of telescopic rods 264 arranged in a ring, when the lifting driving device 262 drives the lifting plate 263 to perform the lifting or lowering action, the top end of the telescopic rod 264 can perform the corresponding elongation or shortening action with the lifting plate 263, so that the bottom of the lifting plate 263 is uniformly stressed, reducing the possibility of tilting of the lifting plate 263 during lifting, and accordingly ensuring the stability and reliability of the height adjustment of the guide bracket 220.

[0078] Specifically, the reel support seat 110 can be mounted on the support surface 500, the reel support seat 110 can include two triangular supports arranged at intervals, the two ends of the second pin shaft 120 are respectively threaded through the corresponding triangular supports, the winding drum 130 is sleeved on the second pin shaft 120, and the winding drum 130 can rotate around the axis of the second pin shaft 120, so that the reel support seat 110 provides support for the winding drum 130, so that the winding drum 130 can be separated from the support surface 500; the winding drum 130 is used for winding the flexible pipe 400.

[0079] The winding drum 130 can be driven to rotate around the axis of the second pin shaft 120 by an electric method, which can reduce labor cost and workload; for example, a rotary motor can be directly or indirectly fixed on the support surface, the motor shaft of the rotary motor can be connected with the winding drum 130 through a speed reducer, and the speed reducer can transmit the rotary driving force of the rotary motor to the winding drum 130 to realize the rotary motion of the winding drum 130, wherein the clockwise or counterclockwise rotation of the winding drum 130 can be realized by adjusting the forward or reverse rotation of the rotary motor.

[0080] In the optional embodiment, since the winding drum 130 is arranged on the reel support seat 110 through the second pin shaft 120, and the winding drum 130 is used for winding the flexible pipe 400, the flexible pipe 400 on the winding drum 130 can be unwound by counterclockwise rotating the winding drum 130, so as to facilitate guiding the flexible pipe 400 to the clamping device 300 through the guide assembly 200, and entering the well hole 600 through the clamping device 300; or the flexible pipe 400 in the well hole 600 can be pulled out by clockwise rotating the winding drum 130, and the flexible pipe 400 is wound and folded on the winding drum 130 along with the clockwise rotation of the winding drum 130.

[0081] Optionally, in combination with Figure 7 As shown, the winding drum 130 includes a winding drum body 131, a second limiting rod 133 and a plurality of second guide wheel structures 132, the winding drum body 131 is circumferentially provided with a plurality of second guide wheel structures 132 arranged in a ring shape at intervals, the second limiting rod 133 is arranged on the winding drum body 131 and is located outside the second guide wheel structure 132, the plurality of second guide wheel structures 132 arranged in a ring shape are used for winding the flexible pipe 400, and the flexible pipe 400 is located between the second guide wheel structure 132 and the second limiting rod 133.

[0085] Because the flexible pipe has a certain hardness, it needs to meet the minimum bending angle during winding on the winding drum 130, for example, if the diameter of the winding drum 130 is small, it may cause the flexible pipe wound on the winding drum 130 to exceed the minimum bending angle, so that the flexible pipe is excessively bent and damaged, therefore, the diameter of the annulus surrounded by the plurality of second guide wheel structures 132 in the winding drum 130 can be greater than or equal to 22 times the diameter of the flexible pipe 400.

[0086] In the optional embodiment, because the flexible pipe 400 is wound on the surface of the plurality of second guide wheel structures 132 arranged in a ring shape, and the flexible pipe 400 is between the second guide wheel structure 132 and the second limiting rod 133, the plurality of second guide wheel structures 132 play a certain supporting role on the flexible pipe 400, and the second limiting rod 133 can be used to prevent the flexible pipe 400 from being separated from the winding drum 130 during the unwinding or winding on the winding drum 130, so as to ensure the stability of the winding action of the flexible pipe 400 on the winding drum 130.

The flexible pipe can be applied to the drilling scene of soil or rock, and can be used for conveying oil, gas, water, soluble mineral slurry and the like extracted from the well hole.

[0089] Since the length of the flexible pipe lowered into the well hole is long, the length can be dozens, hundreds or even thousands of meters, the flexible pipe lowered into the well hole can be in a multi-section structure as a whole, the adjacent two sections of the flexible pipe can be communicated through a coupling, and the clamping device is mainly used for assisting the communication with the next section of the flexible pipe by clamping and fixing one section of the flexible pipe.

[0090] For example, the flexible pipe lowered into the well hole can be defined as a previous section of the flexible pipe, the flexible pipe above the support surface can be defined as a next section of the flexible pipe, after most of the previous section of the flexible pipe is lowered into the well hole, the end of the previous section of the flexible pipe is reserved above the clamping device, at this time, the clamping device 300 can perform a clamping action on the end of the previous section of the flexible pipe to prevent the previous section of the flexible pipe in the well hole from descending under the action of gravity, then the next section of the flexible pipe can be unwound by the reel 130, the next section of the flexible pipe is guided to the upper side of the clamping device 300 through the guide assembly 200, at this time, the tail end of the previous section of the flexible pipe and the head end of the next section of the flexible pipe can be connected and communicated through a coupling, after the connection and communication, the clamping device performs a loosening action on the flexible pipe, so as to lower the next section of the flexible pipe into the well hole, and the process is repeated to realize the connection of the multiple sections of the flexible pipe to form a whole flexible pipe.

[0091] In addition, the clamping device 300 can also clamp or loosen the deformed part of the flexible pipe 400 unwound by the reel 130, so that the deformed part of the flexible pipe returns to the original state.

[0092] As long as various pipe clamping devices 300 capable of clamping or loosening the flexible pipe 400 are suitable for the technical solution, the structure of the clamping device 300 is not limited.

[0093] The flexible pipe installation system of the embodiment has the same beneficial effects as the flexible pipe winding and unwinding device of the prior art, which will not be repeated here.

[0094] Although the utility model discloses as above, the protection scope of the utility model is not limited to this only. The person skilled in the art can make various changes and modifications without departing from the spirit and scope of the utility model, and these changes and modifications will fall within the protection scope of the utility model.
