TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of hydraulic fracturing under mine, especially relates to a deep hole fracturing separator. BACKGROUND
[0002] As a key means of gas efficient extraction and roof disaster control, the operation process of hydraulic fracturing technology relies on fracturing device to block the borehole and inject high-pressure liquid to fracture the coal seam or rock stratum. However, the existing fracturing device has obvious defects: when the fracturing hole collapses or the fracturing equipment fails, the fracturing device and the blocking device are easy to be stuck in the deep hole. This not only makes it difficult to pull out the liquid supply pipeline and the fracturing device, leading to the scrap of the deep hole, but also seriously affects the efficiency and safety of coal mining.
[0003] In the current deep hole fracturing separator technology, the patent document with the announcement number CN222615321U and the name of a deep hole fracturing separator provides a representative design scheme. The core technical points of this scheme are to realize the separation function when the end assembly in the deep hole fails through the ingenious combination of the first separating piece, the second separating piece and the limiting piece. Specifically, the second separating piece is connected with the first separating piece through the sliding sleeve, and the limiting piece penetrates the limiting hole in the side wall of the first separating piece and is connected with the first limiting groove in the outer wall of the sliding sleeve. Under normal working conditions, the limiting piece can effectively limit the relative position between the first separating piece and the sliding sleeve and between the first separating piece and the second separating piece, ensuring the structural stability and connection reliability of the entire separator. Once the end assembly in the deep hole fails, by applying a pulling force to the first separating piece, the limiting piece can be released from the limiting under the action of the pulling force, so that the sliding sleeve loses the constraint, and then the limiting between the first separating piece and the second separating piece is released, realizing the separation of the two, so that the instrument connected to the first separating piece can be pulled out, and the second separating piece and the faulty device connected thereto are discarded, to deal with the engineering failure with the least loss.
[0004] However, although this design can solve some problems in the prior art in theory, it still has significant defects in actual application. Since the limiting piece needs to be released from the limiting under the action of the pulling force, the insertion part of the limiting piece and the limiting hole may be loose and fall off under the influence of long-term high-pressure liquid impact and underground equipment vibration, affecting the normal work of the equipment, and even separating in advance when the failure condition that needs to be separated is not reached, leading to the failure of the fracturing operation.
