Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of material delivery equipment, and in particular relates to a material delivery equipment for oilfield downhole fracturing. Background Technology
[0002] In the petroleum industry, fracturing refers to a method of creating fractures in oil and gas reservoirs using hydraulic action during oil or gas production. Also known as hydraulic fracturing, fracturing artificially creates fractures in the formation, improving the underground flow environment of oil and increasing oil well production. It plays an important role in improving bottomhole flow conditions, mitigating inter-layer flow, and improving reservoir dynamics. The materials used in fracturing are mainly divided into working fluids and proppant. Working fluids are further divided into pre-flush fluids, proppant-carrying fluids, and displacement fluids. Working fluids are formulated by mixing thickeners, flow aids, anti-swelling agents, temperature stabilizers, complexing agents, crosslinking agents, and other additives under certain conditions. Props are further divided into silt, quartz sand, and ceramsite, etc. A search revealed that patent application number 202323007315.2 discloses a material delivery device for oilfield downhole fracturing, including an oilfield downhole fracturing material delivery device body. The oilfield downhole fracturing material delivery device body includes a storage tank and a storage box set above it. An L-shaped support plate is fixedly connected to the left side of the storage box, and the bottom of the storage box is set with a conical structure and connected to and fixed with a solenoid valve. A pump is fixedly installed on the bottom right side of the storage box.
[0003] However, in actual use, the applicant found that during the process of pumping the material inside the storage tank to the external oilfield fracturing feed pipe through the pump, a lot of material would remain on the inner wall of the storage tank, which would reduce the amount of material fed and thus affect the subsequent fracturing effect. In view of this, we propose a material feeding device for oilfield downhole fracturing. Utility Model Content

[0020] Please see Figure 1-3 As shown, this utility model provides a technical solution:
[0021] A material delivery device for downhole fracturing in oilfields includes a base 1, a vertical plate 2 fixedly connected to the top of the base 1, a storage cylinder 4 fixedly connected to the side wall of the vertical plate 2, a first cylinder cover 5 slidably connected to the vertical plate 2 above the storage cylinder 4, a first motor 6 fixedly mounted on the top of the first cylinder cover 5, a feed branch pipe 51 penetrating through the first cylinder cover 5 on one side of the first motor 6, an agitator shaft 13 coaxially fixedly connected to the output end of the first motor 6 through the first cylinder cover 5, and agitator blades 131 provided on the peripheral side wall of the agitator shaft 13. By driving the agitator shaft 13 to rotate the agitator blades 131, the material inside the storage cylinder 4 can be agitated, so that the material is evenly mixed and sedimentation is prevented from affecting the subsequent fracturing effect. A second cylinder cover 7 fixedly connected to the side wall of the vertical plate 2 below the storage cylinder 4, a second motor 8 fixedly mounted on the top of the second cylinder cover 7, a rotating shaft 16 coaxially fixedly connected to the output end of the second motor 8 through the second cylinder cover 7, and scraper blades 161 symmetrically fixedly mounted on the rotating shaft 16. Below the 7, a storage cylinder 9 is provided. A support sleeve 91 is fixedly fitted to the outside of the storage cylinder 9, and the support sleeve 91 is slidably connected to the vertical plate 2. The scraper 161 slides along the inner wall of the storage cylinder 9. A guide pipe 15 is fixedly provided at the bottom of the storage cylinder 4. The lower end of the guide pipe 15 passes through the second cylinder cover 7, and a solenoid valve 14 is fixedly fitted to the upper part of the guide pipe 15. A pump 11 is fixedly installed on the top of the base 1. A controller 3 is fixedly installed on the vertical plate 2. The controller 3 is connected to an external device via a wire. The power supply is electrically connected. The first motor 6, the second motor 8, the pump 11, and the solenoid valve 14 are electrically connected to the controller 3 through wires. The discharge pipe at the bottom of the storage cylinder 9 is connected to the feed end of the pump 11 through the connecting pipe 10. The discharge end of the pump 11 is connected to the external oilfield fracturing feed pipe through the connecting hose. The drive shaft 16 drives the scraper 161 to slide along the inner wall of the storage cylinder 9, which can prevent too much material from remaining on the inner wall of the storage cylinder 9 and affecting the subsequent fracturing effect.
[0022] A T-shaped slider on one side of the first cylindrical cover 5 slides along a T-shaped groove on the upper part of the vertical plate 2, and a T-shaped slider on one side of the support sleeve 91 slides along a T-shaped groove on the lower part of the vertical plate 2. A double-ended screw 12 is rotatably connected to the vertical plate 2 via a bearing. The double-ended screw 12 is threaded through the first cylindrical cover 5 and the support sleeve 91. The threads at both ends of the double-ended screw 12 have opposite directions of rotation. The two ends of the double-ended screw 12 are respectively threaded through the T-shaped slider on one side of the first cylindrical cover 5 and the T-shaped slider on one side of the support sleeve 91. The double-headed screw 12 is driven to rotate, which can move the first cylinder cover 5 upward and the support sleeve 91 and the storage cylinder 9 downward together. The upper end of the double-headed screw 12 passes through the top of the vertical plate 2 and is fitted with an adjusting plate 121. By rotating the double-headed screw 12 counterclockwise, the first cylinder cover 5 can be moved upward and the support sleeve 91 and the storage cylinder 9 can be moved downward, which makes it easier for personnel to clean the inside of the storage cylinder 4 and the storage cylinder 9, as well as the stirring blade 131 and the scraper 161.
[0023] Working principle: In use, the discharge end of the pump 11 is connected to the external oilfield fracturing feed pipe via a connecting hose. The controller 3 drives the first motor 6 to rotate the stirring shaft 13 along with the stirring blades 131, mixing and stirring the material inside the storage cylinder 4 until it is uniform. The solenoid valve 14 is then opened to a certain extent, and a certain amount of material is introduced into the storage cylinder 9 through the feed branch pipe 15. The pump 11 is then driven to pump the material inside the storage cylinder 9 to the external oilfield fracturing feed pipe through the connecting pipe 10. The material is then fed through the oilfield fracturing pipe. The second motor 8 drives the rotating shaft 16 to rotate, and the rotating shaft 16 drives the scraper 161 to clean the inner wall of the storage cylinder 9, preventing excessive material residue on the inner wall of the storage cylinder 9 from affecting the fracturing effect. When it is necessary to clean the inside of the storage cylinder 4 and the storage cylinder 9, the double-headed screw 12 can be rotated counterclockwise by manually rotating the adjusting plate 121. The rotation of the double-headed screw 12 can drive the first cylinder cover 5 to move upward, and drive the support sleeve 91 and the storage cylinder 9 to move downward, thereby cleaning the inner wall of the storage cylinder 4, the stirring blade 131, the inner wall of the storage cylinder 9, and the scraper 161.
