Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of pipeline cathodic protection, specifically to a polarization potential measuring device for directional drilling pipelines. Background Technology
[0002] Directional drilling (DDR) is a pipeline construction technique used in the engineering industry, primarily for oil, natural gas, and some municipal pipelines. It involves large DDR rigs performing positioning drilling, borehole reaming, cleaning, and pipeline pullback before pipeline construction. In pipeline construction, due to limitations imposed by terrain and other natural conditions, DDR is often used when pipelines cross large rivers, highways, or other obstacles. However, DDR has some drawbacks. For example, it cannot prevent the separation of the conductor and polarization potential measuring equipment. During use, the conductor is easily pulled apart, leading to separation and affecting the normal measurement of polarization potential. When using polarization potential measuring equipment in DDR crossing river pipelines, the cathodic protection potential of the river pipeline cannot be tested using conventional methods, rendering the equipment unusable and requiring manual on-site testing with a multimeter.

[0027] The principles and features of this utility model are described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. The examples given are only for explaining this utility model and are not intended to limit the scope of this utility model.
[0028] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, a directional drilling pipeline polarization potential measuring device includes:
[0029] Base plate 1;
[0030] A front fixed limiting component is installed at one end of the base plate 1;
[0031] A rear movable limiting component is installed at the other end of the base plate 1;
[0032] The multi-channel potential measuring instrument 2 is slidably attached to the base plate 1, with its front end limited in the front fixed limiting assembly and its rear end limited in the rear movable limiting assembly.
[0033] In this utility model of a polarization potential measuring device for directional drilling pipelines, a multi-channel potential measuring instrument 2 is slidably clipped onto a base plate 1 to limit its movement. A rear movable limiting component located at the other end of the base plate 1 limits the front end of the multi-channel potential measuring instrument 2. Simultaneously, a front fixed limiting component located at one end of the base plate 1 limits the front end of the multi-channel potential measuring instrument 2 to prevent the connecting wires leading from the front end of the multi-channel potential measuring instrument 2 from separating from it. This allows the multi-channel potential measuring instrument 2 to perform normal measurements in the directional drilling pipeline, solving the problem that the cathodic protection potential of the pipeline crossing section during centering drilling cannot be measured using conventional methods.
[0034] In this embodiment: the base plate 1 is provided with limiting blocks 3 on both sides; the multi-channel potential measuring instrument 2 is provided with limiting grooves 4 on both sides of the bottom that match the limiting blocks 3; the multi-channel potential measuring instrument 2 is slidably engaged with the limiting blocks 3 on the base plate 1 through the limiting grooves 4 at the bottom.
[0035] In this embodiment: a control console 5 is provided on the top of the multi-channel potential measuring instrument 2, and a display screen 6 is provided on the top of the multi-channel potential measuring instrument 2 and in front of the control console 5. The front end of the multi-channel potential measuring instrument 2 has multiple first slots 7, each first slot 7 having a positioning slot 8, and each first slot 7 being equipped with a matching positioning block 9. Each positioning block 9 is provided with a connecting line 10 and an elastic plate 11. The elastic plate 11 has a protrusion 12 that matches the positioning slot 8. Each positioning block 9 is engaged with the corresponding positioning slot 8 in the first slot 7 by the protrusion 12 on the elastic plate 11. Specifically, there are four first slots 7, arranged vertically and horizontally at the front end of the multi-channel potential measuring instrument 2.
[0036] In this embodiment: the front fixing and limiting assembly includes a limiting pressure plate 13 fixedly installed on one end of the base plate 1. The limiting pressure plate 13 is provided with a plurality of second slots 14, each of which is provided with an elastic clamping plate 15. Each elastic clamping plate 15 is provided with a locking nut 16. Each connecting wire 10 passes through the corresponding elastic clamping plate 15 and is fastened by the locking nut 16. The front fixing and limiting assembly also includes a support plate 17, one end of which is vertically fixed to one end of the base plate 1. The limiting pressure plate 13 has an H-shaped structure, and the horizontal bar of the limiting pressure plate 13 is fixedly installed on the other end of the support plate 17. The two ends of the two vertical bars of the limiting pressure plate 13 are provided with the second slots 14.
[0037] In this embodiment: the rear end of the multi-channel potential measuring instrument 2 is provided with a connecting seat 18, which is limited in the rear movable limiting assembly. The rear movable limiting assembly includes a movable insert plate 19, the bottom of which is detachably mounted on the other end of the base plate 1. The top of the movable insert plate 19 is provided with a threaded hole 20, and a control bolt 21 is inserted into the threaded hole 20. A connecting plate 22 is provided on one end of the control bolt 21, and the connecting plate 22 is rotatably inserted into the connecting seat 18. The other end of the base plate 1 is provided with a positioning socket 23; the bottom of the movable insert plate 19 is provided with a positioning block 24, and elastic insert plates 25 are provided on the bottom of the movable insert plate 19 and on both sides of the positioning block 24; the movable insert plate 19 is detachably snapped into the positioning socket 23 at the other end of the base plate 1 through the positioning block 24 and the elastic insert plates 25.
[0038] This invention uses a limiting block 3 on the base plate 1 to cooperate with a limiting groove 4 at the bottom of the multi-channel potential measuring instrument 2 to slide and limit the instrument 2. The limiting pressure plate 13 and elastic clamp 15 in the front fixed limiting assembly limit the positioning plug 9 and connecting wire 10 at the front end of the multi-channel potential measuring instrument 2. After the connecting wire 10 extends from the elastic clamp 15, the locking nut 16 is rotated to lock the connection position of the connecting wire 10 in the elastic clamp 15, preventing the connecting wire 10 from separating from the multi-channel potential measuring instrument 2. This allows the multi-channel potential measuring instrument 2 to measure normally in directional drilling pipelines, solving the problem that the cathodic protection potential of the pipeline crossing section of the centering drill cannot be measured by conventional methods, and avoiding the difficulty of long-term on-site testing using a multimeter.
[0039] This invention can be used to measure the cathodic protection polarization potential of pipelines crossing directional drilling sections in long-distance oil and gas pipelines.
