Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of oil extraction equipment technology, and in particular to a safety shut-off device for oil and gas wellheads. Background Technology

[0002] Oil and gas wellhead shut-off devices are key equipment for ensuring the safety of oil and gas production. The sealing performance and installation accuracy of their flange interfaces are directly related to the reliability of wellhead operations. In the installation process of traditional shut-off valves, the alignment of the flange and the pipeline interface mainly relies on manual positioning and adjustment by holding the pipeline.

[0003] However, in complex working conditions at the wellhead (narrow space and high temperature environment), manual handling of the pipeline is prone to shaking due to arm fatigue, which causes the flange and pipeline interface axis to deviate, requiring multiple adjustments for alignment, affecting the alignment and installation of the flange.

[0004] Therefore, this paper proposes a safety shut-off device for oil and gas wellheads to address how to achieve temporary auxiliary installation support for flanges and pipe interfaces through modular support components, thereby avoiding shaking when aligning pipe ports by hand. Utility Model Content

The support assembly includes a connecting part disposed at the bottom of the flange, and a rotating support part for supporting the pipeline is hinged at the bottom of the connecting part. A snap-fit ​​part for fixing the rotating support part is provided at the hinge point between the rotating support part and the connecting part.

[0010] Preferably, the connecting part includes a connecting block, which is disposed at the bottom of the flange, and the bottom of the connecting block is hinged to the side of the rotating support.

[0015] A movable bolt, the ends of which are sequentially inserted and connected to the hinge joint of the rotating block and the connecting block;

[0016] A protrusion is provided on the side of the movable bolt, and the side of the protrusion is interlocked with the connection between the connecting block and the rotating block; a spring is provided at the intersection of the rotating block and the movable bolt, and the spring is used to pull the movable bolt back to its original position.

[0017] Preferably, the intersection of the rotating block and the protrusion is provided with a movable groove, and the side of the connecting block is provided with a slot for the connecting block to pass through.

[0018] Preferably, the springback element includes:

[0019] A pressure plate is disposed at the end of the movable bolt and located on the side of the rotating block;

[0033] Specifically, the working principle of the overall reference model of the shut-off valve 1 and the flange 101 is the ESD type wellhead shut-off device; the support assembly 3 includes a connecting part set at the bottom of the flange 101, and a rotating support part for supporting the pipeline is hinged at the bottom of the connecting part. A snap-fit ​​part for fixing the rotating support part is provided at the hinge between the rotating support part and the connecting part.

[0034] It should be noted that the connecting part includes a connecting block 303, which is disposed at the bottom of the flange 101, and the bottom of the connecting block 303 is hinged to the side of the rotating support.

[0035] Specifically, the connecting block 303 is welded and fixed to the bottom of the flange 101. When installing the shut-off valve 1, it is generally first connected to the pipe with a fixed position by a flange. The other end of the shut-off valve 1 is the end of the pipe with a rotating support position that is not fixed. The shut-off valve 1 is welded and fixed to the flange 101.

[0036] Furthermore, the rotating support includes: a rotating block 301 and a supporting arc block 302;

[0037] Specifically, the top of the rotating block 301 is hinged to the top side of the connecting block 303, and the supporting arc block 302 is disposed on the top of the rotating block 301. The supporting arc block 302 is used to support the connecting pipe.

[0038] It should be noted that the support arc block 302 and the rotating block 301 are fixed by welding. The curvature of the support arc block 302 is the same as the curvature of the flange at the pipe port. The snap-fit ​​part includes: a movable bolt 304, a protrusion 307 and a spring-loaded part.

[0039] Specifically, the end of the movable bolt 304 is sequentially connected to the hinge of the rotating block 301 and the connecting block 303, the protrusion 307 is provided on the side of the movable bolt 304, the side of the protrusion 307 is connected to the connection between the connecting block 303 and the rotating block 301, and the spring is provided at the intersection of the rotating block 301 and the movable bolt 304.

[0040] It should be noted that the spring-loaded component is used to pull the movable bolt 304 back to its original position. A movable groove 3011 is provided at the intersection of the rotating block 301 and the protrusion 307. A slot for the connecting block 303 to pass through is provided on the side of the connecting block 303. The protrusion 307 and the movable bolt 304 are fixed by welding.
