Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of subsea pipeline plugging technology, specifically to a leak-proof double-layer subsea pipeline plugging device. Background Technology
[0002] In marine engineering, subsea pipelines are mainly used for the transport of oil, gas, water, or chemicals between offshore oil and gas platforms, and between platforms and subsea production trees. Some oilfields, due to design requirements for heat-insulated oil and gas transport, have selected subsea pipelines with double-layer structures. Due to secondary development or abandonment of oilfields, some old subsea pipelines need to be cut and dismantled, with some sections temporarily abandoned on the seabed. To prevent residual oil leakage from the cut double-layer subsea pipelines and environmental pollution, the temporarily abandoned pipelines need to be sealed.
[0003] For example, a pipe sealing device provided in Chinese patent application number 202223546263.1 involves moving the sealing seat towards the pipe end, rotating the bidirectional threaded rod to cause the two moving plates and the arc-shaped plate to move relative to each other, clamping them onto the outer surface of the pipe for fixation, and then activating the electric push rod to push the fixing block into the pipe, thereby gradually pushing the sealing sleeve to the inner wall of the pipe and gradually making it tightly fit against the inner wall of the pipe to seal the pipe end. After maintenance, the electric push rod is activated again to pull the fixing block back to its original position, causing the sealing sleeve and sealing ring to leave the pipe. Then, the bidirectional threaded rod is rotated in the opposite direction to drive the arc-shaped plates to move in opposite directions, allowing the sealing seat to be removed, thus achieving the effect of easy disassembly, simple operation, and saving time.
[0004] However, the following problems still exist in this technical solution: the sealing ring and sealing sleeve are fixed on the fixing block. When the sealing ring and sealing sleeve are damaged, they cannot be disassembled, which makes it impossible to seal the subsea pipeline. Utility Model Content
[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a leak-proof double-layer subsea pipeline sealing device. The sealing mechanism can seal the pipeline to prevent residual oil leakage and environmental pollution. The disassembly mechanism allows the rubber gasket to be removed from the mounting plate for easy replacement, thus extending the service life of this invention and solving the above-mentioned shortcomings in the technology.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a leak-proof double-layer subsea pipeline sealing device, comprising a double-layer subsea pipeline, wherein a sealing mechanism for sealing the double-layer subsea pipeline is provided on one side of the double-layer subsea pipeline.
[0007] Preferably, the sealing mechanism includes a sealing plate disposed on one side of the double-layer subsea pipeline. A first rubber ring is disposed on one side of the sealing plate, and a second rubber ring is disposed inside the first rubber ring. A plug rod is disposed on one side of both the first and second rubber rings. One end of the plug rod passes through the sealing plate and extends out of one side of the double-layer subsea pipeline. Three support frames are fixedly disposed on one side of the sealing plate. A first threaded hole is opened on the support frame, and a second threaded hole is opened on the plug rod. A first bolt is threadedly connected inside the connected first and second threaded holes for sealing the double-layer subsea pipeline.
[0008] Preferably, the double-layer subsea pipeline is provided with an installation mechanism for fixing the sealing mechanism to the double-layer subsea pipeline. The installation mechanism includes two mounting plates respectively provided on both sides of the double-layer subsea pipeline. Each of the two mounting plates is provided with a rubber pad. Two connecting plates are fixed on both sides of the mounting plates. Each connecting plate is provided with a third threaded hole. The two connected third threaded holes are threaded with the same second bolt for fixing the sealing mechanism to the double-layer subsea pipeline.
[0009] Preferably, the mounting plate is provided with a disassembly mechanism for easy removal of the rubber pad. The disassembly mechanism includes multiple fourth threaded holes on the mounting plate and multiple fifth threaded holes on the rubber pad. The fourth and fifth threaded holes are connected internally by the same third bolt for easy removal of the rubber pad.
[0010] Preferably, the sealing plate is provided with a connecting mechanism for fixing the sealing mechanism to the mounting plate. The connecting mechanism includes multiple support plates provided on the sealing plate. Each support plate is provided with a sixth threaded hole. The mounting plate is provided with two seventh threaded holes.
