[0002] Petroleum is a fluid mineral buried deep underground. Initially, people called naturally occurring oily liquid minerals petroleum, combustible gases natural gas, and solid combustible fuel minerals bitumen. As research into these minerals deepened, it was recognized that they are all hydrocarbon compounds in composition and interconnected in their formation, so they are collectively referred to as petroleum.

[0003] Patent publication number CN213838572U discloses a surface shut-off device for casing during pressurized oil well operations, comprising a lower casing, an upper connecting pipe, and an outer shell. The outer shell includes an upper end, a middle part, and a lower end, which are fixedly connected from top to bottom. An installation hole is provided inside the outer shell, which penetrates the upper end, the middle part, and the lower end. The lower casing and the upper connecting pipe are located inside the installation hole.

[0004] While the aforementioned patent can make the connection between pipelines more reliable during use, and the sealing element can seal the pipeline connection from the inside out, thereby increasing the sealing effect of the device, in actual use, because the pipelines are locked and fixed by the screw driving the clamp, the lack of a limiting mechanism makes them prone to loosening due to external vibrations during use, affecting the locking and sealing effect, resulting in low stability and poor performance. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a surface shut-off device for oil well pressurized casing to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0005] (a) Technical problems to be solved

[0007] (II) Technical Solution

[0008] This utility model is achieved through the following technical solution: This utility model proposes a surface shut-off device for casing during pressurized oil well operations, including a sealing sleeve. An upper casing is installed at the upper end of the sealing sleeve, and a lower casing is installed at the bottom end of the sealing sleeve. Two sets of screws are symmetrically installed on the two side walls of the sealing sleeve. A sealing ring is provided at one end of each screw. A connecting cavity is opened on the side wall of one set of sealing rings. A telescopic rod is provided on one side of the connecting cavity. A spring is sleeved on the outside of the telescopic rod. A wedge block is fixed on the movable part of the telescopic rod. A connecting block is reserved on the side wall of the other set of sealing rings. A limit hole is opened on one side wall of the connecting block.

[0009] Furthermore, the upper sleeve is inserted into the lower sleeve, and a sealing ring is provided at the connection between the upper sleeve and the lower sleeve.

[0010] Furthermore, the screw and the sealing sleeve are connected by threads, and a knob is provided at one end of the screw.

[0011] Furthermore, the sealing ring is rotatably connected to the other end of the screw, and the inner diameter of the sealing ring matches the outer diameter of the upper sleeve and the lower sleeve.

[0012] Furthermore, the connecting cavity is formed on one set of the sealing rings, the connecting block is formed on another set of the sealing rings, and the connecting block is inserted into the connecting cavity.

[0013] Furthermore, the spring is welded to the outer wall of the telescopic rod, and the wedge block is fixed to the movable part of the telescopic rod by screws.

[0014] Furthermore, the limiting hole is formed on the connecting block, and the wedge block is inserted into the limiting hole.

[0015] (III) Beneficial Effects

[0016] Compared with the prior art, this utility model has the following advantages:

[0017] This utility model employs a locking mechanism consisting of a connecting cavity, a connecting block, a telescopic rod, a spring, a wedge block, and a limiting hole. During the sealing and locking process of the upper and lower sleeves using sealing rings, the connecting block can be inserted into the connecting cavity. During connection, the wedge block compresses the telescopic rod and spring. Once inserted into place, the wedge block returns to its original position under the rebound force of the telescopic rod and spring, thus connecting the two sets of sealing rings into one unit. This effectively prevents the sealing rings from loosening due to vibration, ensuring a secure sealing and locking effect on the upper and lower sleeves, resulting in high performance.

A spring 12 is sleeved on the outside of the telescopic rod 11. A wedge block 9 is fixed on the movable part of the telescopic rod 11. A connecting block 7 is reserved on the side wall of the other set of sealing rings 6. A limit hole 10 is opened on one side wall of the connecting block 7, which can realize the locking connection of the two sets of sealing rings 6, and thus connect them into one body to prevent vibration from affecting their sealing and locking effect.

[0026] like Figures 1-4 In this embodiment, the upper sleeve 2 and the lower sleeve 3 are inserted together. A sealing ring is provided at the connection between the upper sleeve 2 and the lower sleeve 3. The screw 4 and the sealing sleeve 1 are connected by threads. A knob 5 is reserved at one end of the screw 4. The sealing ring 6 is rotatably connected to the other end of the screw 4. The inner diameter of the sealing ring 6 matches the outer diameter of the upper sleeve 2 and the lower sleeve 3. In use, the upper sleeve 2 and the lower sleeve 3 are first connected in the sealing sleeve 1. Then, the screw 4 is rotated by the knob 5, which causes the sealing ring 6 to move and seal and lock the upper sleeve 2 and the lower sleeve 3.

During the connection process, the telescopic rod 11 and the spring 12 are squeezed by the wedge block 9. When it is inserted into place, the wedge block 9 is reset and inserted into the limiting hole 10 under the action of the elastic force of the telescopic rod 11 and the spring 12, thereby connecting the two sets of sealing rings 6 into one. This can effectively prevent the sealing rings 6 from loosening due to vibration, and ensure its sealing and locking effect on the upper sleeve 2 and the lower sleeve 3, resulting in high performance.

[0028] The specific implementation process of this embodiment is as follows: First, the upper sleeve 2 and the lower sleeve 3 are connected in the sealing sleeve 1. Then, the screw 4 is rotated by the knob 5, which causes the sealing ring 6 to move and seal and lock the upper sleeve 2 and the lower sleeve 3. During the process of sealing and locking the upper sleeve 2 and the lower sleeve 3 by the sealing ring 6, the connecting block 7 can be inserted into the connecting cavity 8. During the connection process, the wedge block 9 squeezes the telescopic rod 11 and the spring 12. When it is inserted into place, the wedge block 9 is reset and inserted into the limiting hole 10 under the action of the elastic force of the telescopic rod 11 and the spring 12, thereby connecting the two sets of sealing rings 6 into one, which can effectively prevent the sealing ring 6 from loosening due to vibration, and ensure its sealing and locking effect on the upper sleeve 2 and the lower sleeve 3, resulting in high performance.
