Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of drilling blowout prevention, and particularly relates to a drilling tool blowout prevention safety valve. BACKGROUND

[0002] In coal mine roadway horizontal drilling operation, high pressure stratum fluid (such as gas, water or mud) is easy to be ejected reversely through the inside of the drill pipe, which seriously threatens the safety of operation. The traditional blowout prevention safety valve mostly adopts a one-way valve structure, relying on the conical surface sealing of the spring driven valve core and valve seat. However, such design has the following limitations: structure cannot be disassembled: the valve seat and valve body are usually welded or integrally cast, once the sealing surface is worn or the spring fails, the valve needs to be replaced as a whole, which is high in maintenance cost and low in efficiency; spring overload risk: when the fluid pressure in the drill pipe increases suddenly, the excessive displacement of the valve core can easily cause plastic deformation of the spring, reducing the sealing reliability; short sealing life: the conical surface of the valve core and valve seat is subjected to long-term erosion of high-speed fluid, which can easily cause scratches or corrosion, leading to sealing failure; insufficient guiding stability: the valve core movement track lacks precise guiding device, and deflection can cause local wear of the sealing surface, aggravating the leakage risk.

[0003] Although the prior art attempts to improve the performance by optimizing the spring stiffness or the conical surface angle, it does not fundamentally solve the core problems such as modular maintenance, anti-overload protection and long-term sealing. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a blowout prevention safety valve with quick disassembly, spring limiting protection and high wear-resistant sealing surface to meet the long-term stable operation requirements under complex working conditions of coal mines.

Under the elastic force of the spring, the outer conical surface of the valve head is in sealing contact with the inner conical surface of the valve seat, a retaining ring is detachably and fixedly connected to one end of the valve head facing the positioning ring, and one end of the spring facing the valve head is located in the retaining ring.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the utility model has the beneficial effects that:

[0014] 1, when high-pressure fluid promotes the valve head, spring compression allows fluid to pass through, realizes pressure release, and after pressure reduction, spring resets, closes sealing channel in time, prevents backflow and causes nozzle accident.

[0015] 2, the valve seat is quickly disassembled through the cooperation of external thread and internal thread, the valve body does not need to be replaced as a whole, maintenance cost is reduced, the flat groove at the valve seat end is convenient for tool clamping, the disassembly process is simplified, and on-site operation efficiency is improved, the key components such as valve head, guide rod and stop ring are connected through screw thread, worn parts can be replaced individually, and resource waste is avoided.

[0016] 3, the guide rod slides in the positioning ring hole, ensures that the valve head movement track is perpendicular and centered, prevents partial wear of the sealing surface caused by deflection, and the multiple groove holes on the outer side of the positioning ring increase the fluid passing section area, reduce flow resistance, and maintain the stability of the guide structure.

[0017] 4, static sealing is realized between the valve seat and the valve body through the sealing ring, fluid leakage is avoided, the valve head outer conical surface and the valve seat inner conical surface are dynamically sealed, spring pre-tightening force ensures that they are closely combined under normal conditions, and reverse fluid is blocked.

[0018] 5, the stop ring is connected with the valve head through screw thread and contains the spring end, limits the maximum compression stroke of the spring, prevents plastic deformation or fracture, and the mechanical limiting of the positioning ring to the stop ring further avoids overloading work of the spring.
