AI Technical Summary
Existing drilling fluid centrifuges are inadequate in terms of separation efficiency and slag removal capacity. The solid phase cannot be continuously pushed, leading to accumulation, and the lack of torque adjustment makes it impossible to adjust the speed difference in real time.
It employs a differential centrifugal assembly and a solid transfer and separation assembly. A water-immersed motor drives the rotating shaft to form a stable differential speed with the transmission thread blades. Combined with a flushing and anti-clogging assembly, high-pressure spraying removes adhering debris, thereby achieving dynamic adjustment of the speed difference.
It improves the throughput and separation efficiency of drilling fluid, avoids solid accumulation, maintains smooth slag discharge under high torque conditions, and significantly enhances the equipment's processing capacity.

Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of drilling fluid centrifugation technology, and more specifically, to a drilling fluid centrifuge with a large processing capacity. Background Technology
[0002] Drilling fluid centrifugation is a process that uses a high-speed rotating centrifuge to separate solid particles (such as drill cuttings, barite, etc.) from the liquid phase in circulating drilling fluid. By rapidly settling solids according to density differences through a centrifugal force field, drilling fluid can be purified, its performance regulated, and recycled. It is a key solids control technology to ensure drilling safety and reduce costs.
[0003] A search revealed an existing patent (publication number: CN217421103U) that discloses a centrifuge for drilling fluid, comprising: an equipment mounting platform, on which a high-efficiency conveying centrifugal structure is mounted; the high-efficiency conveying centrifugal structure includes: a pair of first support legs, a centrifuge tank, a centrifuge chamber, a drive support centrifugal assembly, a drive connecting gear, and a fixed pipe feed assembly; this utility model relates to the field of centrifugal equipment technology, and solves the problem that existing drilling fluids lack perfect circulation and treatment equipment, and that the large amount of impurities contained in the drilling fluid will cause wear and tear on the equipment, which will eventually lead to equipment damage and affect the overall progress of drilling.
[0004] The existing structure relies solely on gears to drive the centrifugal rollers, lacking both a screw conveyor and differential speed, resulting in the solid phase not being continuously pushed and accumulating. Furthermore, the lack of torque adjustment means that the speed difference cannot be adjusted in real time according to the solid phase concentration, leading to significantly insufficient separation efficiency and slag discharge capacity. Utility Model Content

[0009] Preferably, the differential centrifugal assembly further includes: a gear ring fixedly mounted on the outer surface of the filter drum, wherein the spur gear meshes with the gear ring.
[0010] Preferably, the solid transfer and separation assembly includes: a support frame fixedly installed on the top of the support plate, a first immersion motor fixedly installed on the top of the support frame, an inlet valve pipe fixedly installed at one end of the first immersion motor, a solid transfer section assembled inside the filter drum, a second immersion motor fixedly installed on the top of the support plate, and a second liquid outlet pipe fixedly installed at one end of the second immersion motor.
[0011] Preferably, the solid transmission unit includes: a rotating shaft fixedly installed on the first immersion motor and the second immersion motor, and a transmission thread blade is fixedly installed on the outer surface of the rotating shaft.
[0012] Preferably, the flushing anti-clogging component includes: a straight water pipe fixedly installed inside the protective housing, a nozzle fixedly installed on the outer surface of the straight water pipe, a connecting pipe fixedly installed at one end of the nozzle, a water pump fixedly installed on the outer surface of the connecting pipe, and a water tank fixedly installed on the outer surface of the connecting pipe.
[0013] Preferably, there are two sets of straight water pipes and nozzles, and the two sets of straight water pipes and nozzles are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the connecting pipe.
[0014] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0015] Upon startup, this invention introduces a system where a single submersible motor delivers drilling fluid into the filter drum via the feed valve. Simultaneously, a high-speed motor drives the filter drum to rotate at high speed via a spur gear-ring, throwing the solid phase against the wall. A second submersible motor synchronously drives the shaft and transmission threaded blades, creating a stable differential speed within the drum, continuously pushing the sediment towards the second outlet pipe to prevent solid accumulation. The flushing and anti-clogging component activates as needed: a water pump draws water from the tank, which is then sprayed at high pressure onto the inner wall of the drum via connecting pipes, straight water pipes, and nozzles on both sides, instantly removing adhering debris. This system maintains dynamic adjustment of the speed difference even under high torque conditions, ensuring smooth slag discharge and significantly improving processing capacity and separation efficiency.
