[0017] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0018] Example 1: A low center of gravity automatic offline drilling rig, such as Figures 1-3 As shown, the derrick 1 extends vertically. The bottom end of the derrick 1 is hinged to a base (not shown in the figure). The base supports and fixes the derrick 1. A lifting mechanism (not shown in the figure) is provided on the base. The lifting mechanism is connected to the derrick 1 and is used to drive the derrick 1 to rotate along the hinge point with the base, so as to realize the lowering and erection of the derrick 1. For those skilled in the art, the base and the lifting mechanism are well-known technologies, so they will not be described in detail. A crane 2 is provided on the derrick 1. The right side of the derrick 1 is an open structure. The crane 2 is located at the right opening of the derrick 1. A lifting device (not shown in the figure) is provided on the crane 2. The lifting device is a hydraulically driven automatic lifting clamp, which is adapted to a drill pipe joint. The lifting device is used to grab and release the drill pipe to realize the docking of the drill pipe. For those skilled in the art, the lifting device is well-known technology, so it will not be described in detail.

[0019] The derrick 1 is equipped with a hoisting system 3, which is connected to the overhead crane 2 to drive its lifting and lowering, thereby achieving drill pipe docking. Specifically, the bottom of the derrick 1 is fixed with a plate seat 301 extending horizontally to the left. The hoisting system 3 includes a winch 302 fixed on the plate seat 301. The winch 302 includes a drum, and a sling 303 is wound on the drum. The sling 303 is a steel wire rope. The plate seat 301 is equipped with a drive device. The output shaft of the drive device is connected to the drum of the winch 302 through a coupling. The drive device is a diesel engine to adapt to environments without power grids. The top of the derrick 1 is equipped with a first pulley 304 through a pulley seat. One end of the sling 303 is fixed on the drum of the winch 302, and the other end of the sling 303 passes upward over the top of the first pulley 304 and downward to the overhead crane 2.

[0020] By setting the winch 302 and drive device in the hoisting system 3 at the bottom of the derrick 1, the weight at the top of the derrick 1 can be reduced, the center of gravity of the derrick 1 can be lowered, the overall stability of the derrick 1 can be improved, and the risk of the derrick tilting or even overturning can be reduced. By setting the first pulley 304 at the top of the derrick 1, the hoisting cable 303 can pass over the first pulley 304 upward and connect to the overhead crane 2 downward to carry out lifting and lowering operations on the overhead crane 2.

[0021] The crane 2 is equipped with a second pulley 4 that rotates inside. The top of the derrick 1 is fixed with a horizontally extending fixed plate 5. The fixed plate 5 is provided with a sling anchoring hole. The other end of the sling 303 extends downward after passing over the first pulley 304, and then passes over the bottom of the second pulley 4 and is anchored upward in the sling anchoring hole of the fixed plate 5. The second pulley 4 and the sling 303 together form a movable pulley structure, so that the sling 303 located on the right side of the second pulley 4 and connected to the fixed plate 5 and the sling 303 located on the left side of the second pulley 4 can jointly bear the total load of the second pulley 4 and the crane 2, thereby reducing the tension of the sling 303 on the winch 302 and significantly reducing the power requirement of the winch 302 and the wear of the sling 303.

[0022] A frame 6 extending horizontally to the left is fixed at the top of the derrick 1. A triangular diagonal brace is provided between the frame 6 and the left side of the derrick 1 to support the end of the frame 6 away from the derrick 1. A third pulley 7 is provided on the frame 6. The third pulley 7 is located to the left of the first pulley 304. After the hoisting cable 303 is led out from the drum of the winch 302, it is wound upwards around the top of the third pulley 7, and then wound to the right around the top of the first pulley 304. This allows the third pulley 7 and the first pulley 304 to share the longitudinal load applied to the hoisting cable 303 by the overhead crane 2. At the same time, the third pulley 7 is located on the left side of the top of the derrick 1, which can balance the load from the overhead crane 2 on the right side of the derrick 1.

[0023] The first pulley 304, the second pulley 4, and the third pulley 7 are all multi-groove pulleys with the same number of grooves. There are multiple slings 303, which are spaced apart front and back. The multiple slings 303 are wound around the third pulley 7, the first pulley 304, and the second pulley 4 in sequence, which can improve the load-bearing capacity of the overhead crane 2 and the drill rod. The multiple slings extend upward from the drum of the winch 302, pass over the top of the third pulley 7, pass over the top of the first pulley 304 to the right, then pass down to the bottom of the second pulley 4 and are anchored upward in the sling anchoring hole of the fixing plate 5.

[0024] Two guide rails 8 are fixedly installed at the right opening of the derrick 1, with the front and rear sections spaced apart and the openings facing each other. The overhead crane 2 is located between the two guide rails 8. Sliding frames 9 are fixedly installed on both the front and rear sides of the overhead crane 2. The sliding frames 9 are slidably installed inside the guide rails 8. The guide rails 8 can guide the overhead crane 2 to move vertically up and down through the sliding frames 9, so as to prevent the hoisting cable 303 from swaying and causing the overhead crane 2 to become unstable.

[0025] Working principle: The drive device drives the winch 302 drum to rotate, winding and unwinding multiple slings 303. After being led out from the winch drum, the slings go upward around the third pulley 7 and the first pulley 304, then downward around the second pulley 4 inside the overhead crane 2, and finally anchored to the fixed plate 5. When the winch is winding, the slings drive the overhead crane 2 to rise vertically along the guide rail 8; when releasing, the overhead crane descends smoothly under the control of gravity and the slings, realizing the grabbing and lowering of the drill rod.

[0026] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that this invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above, and that it can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics of this invention. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered illustrative and non-limiting in all respects, and the scope of this invention is defined by the appended claims and not by the foregoing description. Thus, all variations falling within the meaning and scope of equivalents of the claims are intended to be included within this invention. No reference numerals in the claims should be construed as limiting the scope of the claims.
