Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of oilfield production, specifically to an oilfield production water-blocking device. Background Technology

[0002] Oilfield water plugging refers to a series of downhole technological measures taken to control the flow of water in oil wells and change the flow direction of water in water-driven oil production, thereby improving water-driven oil efficiency and maintaining increased or stable oil production. These measures include two methods: mechanical water plugging and chemical water plugging. Mechanical water plugging uses downhole packers or bridge plugs and their matching tools to seal high-water-producing sections, thereby solving the problem of inter-layer interference in multi-layered oil wells and better utilizing the reserves of low-water-cut oil layers. Chemical water plugging involves injecting water-blocking agents or water-reducing agents into the water-producing layer to seal the water-producing pores or change the mobility of formation water to achieve the purpose of water plugging. Existing water plugging devices have simple structures, mostly interlocking structures, which are not convenient to disassemble and replace, and the water plugging effect is not significant enough. Therefore, it is necessary to provide a water plugging device that is easy to disassemble and replace and can guarantee the water plugging effect. Utility Model Content

[0003] This utility model provides an oilfield water-blocking device, which aims to solve the problems of insufficient water-blocking effect and inconvenience in disassembly and assembly of existing water-blocking devices.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides an oilfield production water-blocking device, including a water-blocking component;

[0005] The water-blocking assembly includes a central tube with a clamp head fixedly connected to its upper end. Several rubber tubes are sleeved on the side surface of the central tube, and sealing rings are connected between the rubber tubes. An upper connector and a lower connector are detachably installed at both ends of the central tube. A vulcanized core is installed at the upper end of the lower connector. Air bladders are sleeved on the side surfaces of the rubber tubes, and air inlets are fixedly connected to the side surfaces of the air bladders.

[0006] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the inner walls of several rubber tubes are provided with annular grooves, and the side surface of the central tube is equidistantly connected with several locking ribs, which are all engaged inside the annular grooves.

[0007] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the inner wall of the upper connector is provided with a positioning groove, and the clamp head is engaged inside the positioning groove.

[0008] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, several pin holes are provided at both ends of the central tube, the upper connector, the lower connector, and the side surface of the vulcanized core, and a pin is inserted into the interior of each of the pin holes.

[0009] In a preferred embodiment of this invention, both the sealing ring and the airbag are made of rubber.

[0010] In a preferred embodiment of this invention, the central tube is made of stainless steel.

[0011] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0012] 1. When performing water plugging operations in oilfields, first connect the central pipe to the upper and lower connectors and related parts. During the water plugging operation, control the upper and lower connectors to squeeze each other, causing several rubber hoses to deform under pressure. At the same time, inflate the airbag through the air inlet. As the airbag collides with and contacts the inner wall of the pipe, the combined effect of several rubber hoses can significantly improve the water plugging effect. Compared with existing water plugging devices, this utility model can significantly improve the water plugging effect through the above-mentioned structure, thus enhancing the practicality of the water plugging device.

[0013] 2. When disassembling the water-blocking device, first remove the pin from the pin hole, so that the upper and lower connectors can be removed from the side surface of the central tube. This allows for the disassembly of several rubber tubes and sealing rings. Then, remove the clamp from the positioning groove to disassemble the water-blocking assembly. Compared with existing water-blocking devices, this invention, through the cooperation of the above structures, facilitates the disassembly and assembly of each component, thereby improving the ease of replacement of each component.

An air bladder 108 is sleeved on the side surface of the rubber tubes 103, and an air inlet 109 is fixedly connected to the side surface of the air bladder 108.

[0023] In one specific embodiment, the water-blocking assembly 100 not only significantly improves the water-blocking operation in the oilfield production process, thereby enhancing the practicality of the water-blocking device, but also allows for easy disassembly and assembly of the water-blocking assembly 100 through the cooperation of the above structures, improving the convenience of replacing each component. In use, the water-blocking assembly 100 is first installed in the sucker pipe. At this time, the air bladder 108 is inflated through the air inlet 109. The inflated air bladder 108 collides with and contacts the inner wall of the sucker pipe, while the water-blocking assembly 100 is compressed, thereby deforming several rubber tubes 103 and squeezing the air bladder 108, thus further improving the water-blocking effect. During disassembly, the central tube 101, rubber tubes 103, sealing ring 104, upper connector 105, and lower connector 106 can be disassembled simply by removing the pin 132 from the pin hole 131, thereby improving the convenience of disassembly and replacement of each component.

[0024] Please see Figures 2-5 The inner walls of several rubber tubes 103 are provided with annular grooves 111, and several ferrules 112 are equidistantly connected to the side surface of the central tube 101. The ferrules 112 are all engaged inside the annular grooves 111.

[0026] Please see Figures 2-5The upper connector 105 has a positioning groove 121 on its inner wall, and the clamp 102 is clamped inside the positioning groove 121.

[0027] In one specific embodiment, the positioning groove 121 is used to improve the snap-fit ​​stability between the upper connector 105 and the snap-fit ​​head 102, and at the same time facilitates the disassembly of the two.

[0028] Please see Figures 2-5 Several pin holes 131 are provided at both ends of the central tube 101, the upper connector 105, the lower connector 106, and the side surface of the vulcanized core 107. A pin rod 132 is inserted into the interior of each of the pin holes 131.

[0029] In one specific embodiment, the pin 132 is inserted into the pin hole 131, which can improve the ease of disassembly and assembly of the various components of the water-blocking assembly 100.

[0030] Please see Figures 2-5 Both the sealing ring 104 and the airbag 108 are made of rubber.

[0031] In one specific embodiment, the rubber sealing ring 104 and the airbag 108 can help enhance the water-blocking effect.

[0032] Please see Figures 2-5 The central tube 101 is made of stainless steel.

[0033] In one specific embodiment, the stainless steel central tube 101 can prevent rust, thereby extending the service life of the central tube 101.

[0034] Working principle: In use, the water-blocking component 100 is first installed in the oil pipe. Then, the air bag 108 is inflated through the air inlet 109. The air bag 108 is inflated and contacts the inner wall of the oil pipe. Then, the water-blocking component 100 is compressed to control the deformation of several rubber tubes 103 and squeeze the air bag 108, thereby further improving the water-blocking effect. When disassembling, the central tube 101, rubber tubes 103, sealing ring 104, upper connector 105 and lower connector 106 can be disassembled simply by removing the pin 132 from the pin hole 131, thereby improving the convenience of disassembly and replacement of each component.
