Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of blowout preventer technology, and in particular relates to a double-layer rubber core assembly device for annular blowout preventers. Background Technology
[0002] The rubber core of the annular blowout preventer is the core sealing component in well control equipment. Its performance directly affects wellhead safety. The rubber core is restricted from moving upward by the top cover. Under the action of the inner conical surface of the piston, it is forced to be squeezed and compressed towards the center of the wellbore until the hollow part of the rubber core is filled with rubber, thus completely sealing the wellhead.
[0003] A search revealed that patent CN210264617U discloses a rubber core for annular wellhead blowout preventers. This core is designed by setting a fixed ring, inside which are a first rubber ring, a second rubber ring, and a third rubber ring. These three sets of rings form three sets of sealing strips. When the drill bit is pulled out and the piston is squeezed, these three sets of sealing strips are formed, thereby improving the sealing performance of the blowout preventer.
[0004] The above methods effectively improve the sealing performance of the blowout preventer. However, a single-layer rubber core may experience sealing failure or rapid wear under extreme conditions (such as high pressure, high temperature, or corrosive media), thereby reducing the sealing performance of the rubber core. In addition, the installation process of the rubber core is complicated. Therefore, we provide a double-layer rubber core assembly device for annular blowout preventers to solve the above problems.
