Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of sucker rod coupling testing devices, specifically to a sucker rod coupling testing instrument. Background Technology

[0002] In the field of oil extraction, sucker rod couplings are exposed to complex mechanical and chemical environments downhole for extended periods. Even minor defects on their surface can lead to serious fracture accidents, affecting the safety and efficiency of extraction operations. Therefore, surface flaw detection is of paramount importance.

[0003] Currently, surface flaw detection of sucker rod couplings mainly employs manual visual inspection and traditional non-destructive testing techniques. Manual visual inspection relies on the experience of inspectors and their naked eye to observe the coupling surface. It is affected by factors such as lighting and personnel fatigue, and has limited ability to identify defects such as micro-cracks and pinholes. Furthermore, the inspection efficiency is low, making it difficult to meet the needs of large-scale production. Utility Model Content

[0005] In view of the above-mentioned shortcomings of the existing technology, the present invention provides a sucker rod coupling tester, which can effectively solve the problems in the existing technology.

[0006] Technical solution

[0007] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:

[0008] This utility model provides a sucker rod coupling detector, comprising two sets of outer frames. The top ends of the two sets of outer frames are connected and fixed by two sets of trusses. A movable frame and a tail frame are respectively provided at both ends of the outer side of the trusses. A rotation limiting device is fixed at the bottom end of the movable frame. Spraying equipment is fixed at both ends of the outer frames. A sucker rod coupling is connected between the rotation limiting device and the tail frame. A connecting plate is fixed at the bottom end of the tail frame. A slide is fixed at the outer side of the connecting plate. A circular hole is opened in the middle of the slide. The rotation limiting device includes a base plate and a drive motor fixed to one side of the base plate. The output end of the drive motor is fixedly connected to a servo motor via a belt. The output end of the servo motor is fixedly connected to a clamp. A connecting block is fixed at the front end of the base plate. One end of the sucker rod coupling passes through the middle of the connecting block and is fixedly connected to the middle of the clamp. The other end is sleeved on the middle of the slide.

[0009] Furthermore, side grooves are provided on both sides of the carriage, and locking bolts are fixed in the side grooves. A nut structure is sleeved on the outside of the locking bolts.

[0010] Furthermore, the spraying equipment includes a spraying frame and a collection frame disposed outside the spraying frame. A groove is provided in the middle of the inner side of the spraying frame, and an illumination lamp assembly is fixed in the groove. A nozzle is fixed at the bottom of the groove, and the nozzle is in communication with the collection frame. A toothed rack is fixed at the top of both sides of the spraying frame.

[0011] Furthermore, the outer side of the servo motor is fixedly connected to the mounting bracket, one end of the mounting bracket is connected to the belt drive, the inner side of the mounting bracket is movably sleeved with the clamp, and a side rod is fixed to the top of the connecting block.

[0012] Furthermore, the top of the truss is provided with a groove, and the movable frame includes an outer frame plate and movable wheels fixed to the bottom of the top of the outer frame plate. Movable wheels are fixed at the top center of the tail frame, and each set of movable wheels is set in the groove of the truss.

[0014] Beneficial effects

[0015] The technical solution provided by this utility model has the following advantages compared with the known public technology:

[0016] This invention, through its movable frame, spraying equipment, and rotation limiting device, allows the user to determine and adjust the distance between the movable frame and the tail frame based on the length of the sucker rod coupling. Both the tail frame and the movable frame can move on the grooves in the truss via their movable wheel structures. After being limited by the sucker rod coupling, positioning is achieved. If the length of the sucker rod coupling is much greater than that of this device, there is no need to determine the distance between the movable frame and the tail frame; it can be directly fixed by the clamp and further limited by the slide on the tail frame. Therefore, this device is applicable to sucker rod coupling structures of different lengths.

[0017] In this device, the drive motor can drive the servo motor inside the bottom mounting bracket to rotate via a belt. The mounting bracket is fixed to the top base plate, and the servo motor is movably sleeved within the mounting bracket. Therefore, after the servo motor drives the clamp to be fixedly connected to the external sucker rod coupling, it can drive the sucker rod to rotate. This is suitable for uniform spraying and irradiation of external structures by spraying and irradiating lamp groups, facilitating external inspection of external structures for flaw detection. The outer side of the mounting bracket is sleeved with the connecting block through multiple sets of sliding rod structures, so the outer cylinder can drive the side rod to move through its output end. By adjusting the position of the connecting block on the sucker rod coupling, the force contact position of the sucker rod coupling can be adjusted. Moreover, the bottom of the side rod, through contact with the base block, can prevent swaying and deviation during the movement of the side rod.

[0018] In this device, the user can inject fluorescent magnetic levitation into the collection frame through the spraying equipment, and spray it outward through multiple nozzle structures connected to it, covering the outer wall surface of the sucker rod coupling. The surface is then irradiated by the illumination lamp structure to avoid detection. The rack structure at the top of the spraying frame facilitates the user to install a reciprocating moving device (gear, belt, etc.) to inspect the condition of the sucker rod coupling surface.

[0028] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the embodiments.

Both the tail frame 3 and the moving frame 2 can move on the groove on the truss 11 through the moving wheel 22 structure. After being limited by the sucker rod coupling 6, the positioning function can be realized. If the length of the sucker rod coupling 6 is much greater than that of this device, it is not necessary to determine the distance between the moving frame 2 and the tail frame 3. It can be directly fixed by the clamp 57 and assisted by the slide 32 on the tail frame 3. Therefore, this device can be used for sucker rod coupling 6 structures of different lengths.

[0031] The slide 32 has side grooves 33 on both sides, and a locking bolt 34 is fixed in the side groove 33. A nut structure is sleeved on the outside of the locking bolt 34.

[0032] The spraying equipment 4 includes a spraying frame 41 and a collection frame 45 located outside the spraying frame 41.

In this device, the user can inject fluorescent magnetic levitation into the collection frame 45 and spray it outward through the multiple nozzles 42 connected to it, covering the outer wall surface of the sucker rod coupling 6. The surface is then illuminated by the illumination lamp group 44 to avoid detection. The rack 43 structure at the top of the spraying frame 41 facilitates the user to install a reciprocating moving device (gear, belt, etc.) to inspect the surface of the sucker rod coupling 6.

The mounting bracket is fixed to the bottom plate 52 at the top. The servo motor 58 is movably sleeved in the mounting bracket. Therefore, after the servo motor 58 drives the clamp 57 to be fixedly connected to the external sucker rod coupling 6, it can drive the sucker rod to rotate. Therefore, it is suitable for spraying and irradiating the external structure with the light group 44 to uniformly spray and irradiate, which is convenient for the external inspection structure to perform flaw detection on the external structure. The outer side of the mounting bracket is sleeved with the connecting block 54 through multiple sets of sliding rods 56. Therefore, the outer cylinder 53 can drive the side rod 55 to move through its output end. By adjusting the position of the connecting block 54 on the sucker rod coupling 6, the force contact position of the sucker rod coupling 6 can be adjusted. Moreover, the bottom of the side rod 55 contacts the bottom block 521, which can prevent the side rod 55 from shaking and deviating during the movement.
