During operation, as oil well production enters the medium-to-high water-cut stage, the sealing problems of the wellhead packing box and the corrosion of the polished rod become increasingly prominent. The consumption of sealing materials accelerates rapidly, and well fluid leaks from the wellhead packing box, resulting in serious pollution problems at the wellhead and well site. The movement of the polished rod is affected by the well fluid. To effectively solve the wellhead maintenance problems of high water-cut wells, it is necessary to lubricate the wellhead.

[0003] However, most existing wellhead sealing and lubrication devices only have one oil injection port. Lubricating oil is then manually injected into the polished rod through the oil injection port to lubricate the polished rod and the wellhead. This lubrication method is not conducive to providing good lubrication to the entire circumferential surface of the polished rod, and it requires manual injection of oil into the oil injection port.

The polished rod 4 is inserted into the wellhead of the oil well, and the polished rod 4 is slidably connected to the movable groove of the polished rod 4.

[0020] The left plate 1 and the right plate 2 are provided with a number of ball cage tubes 6 arranged in a ring. The walls of the left plate 1 and the right plate 2 are provided with a number of oil filling ports 7 that are connected to the ball cage tubes 6. A pair of semi-circular oil filling covers 8 that can be spliced ​​together to form a complete ring are fixedly installed on the left plate 1 and the right plate 2.

[0021] The device is equipped with a left plate 1 and a right plate 2, which can be connected for easy disassembly and installation. A flange connection plate 3 is installed to connect the left plate 1 and the right plate 2. Several oil inlets 7 are provided, through which lubricating oil can be introduced into the ball cage tube 6. Several ball cage tubes 6 are arranged in a ring, allowing lubricating oil to enter the lubrication chamber 5 through each ball cage tube 6, thus lubricating the entire circumference of the polished rod 4 and achieving a better lubrication effect. By placing the ball cage tube 6 and the oil inlets 7 inside the device, space can be effectively saved. A pair of semi-circular oil inlets 8 are installed, which can be spliced ​​into a complete circular oil inlets 8. The pair of semi-circular oil inlets 8 are not interconnected, allowing lubricating oil to be introduced into the semi-circular oil inlets 8 and then flow into each oil inlet 7. An oil storage component is installed to store lubricating oil, and the lubricating oil in the oil storage component can be used to supply oil to the semi-circular oil inlets 8.

[0022] Furthermore, a pair of semi-circular rotating rings 12 are rotatably installed inside a pair of semi-circular oil filling covers 8. The pair of semi-circular rotating rings 12 can be spliced ​​into a complete circular rotating ring. Several sealing blocks 9 are movably installed inside the oil filling covers 8. The sealing blocks 9 have cavities. Springs 10 are fixedly connected inside the cavities. The other end of the springs 10 is fixedly connected to a sealing ball 11 for sealing the oil filling port 7.

[0023] A pair of semi-circular rotating rings 12 are installed by rotation. The rotation of the pair of semi-circular rotating rings 12 can drive the rotation of several sealing blocks 9. The sealing blocks 9 have cavities in them, and springs 10 can be installed in the cavities. By installing springs 10, sealing balls 11 can be installed on the other end of springs 10. When the rotating rings 12 rotate, they drive the sealing blocks 9, springs 10 and sealing balls 11 to rotate. When the sealing balls 11 rotate to the oil inlet 7, the oil inlet 7 can be blocked. At this time, lubricating oil cannot enter the ball cage tube 6 through the oil inlet 7. When the sealing blocks 9 continue to rotate, the sealing balls 11 continue to rotate, the springs 10 contract, and after the sealing balls 11 move out of the oil inlet 7, the lubricating oil can enter the ball cage tube 6 through the oil inlet 7 to lubricate the polished rod 4.

[0024] Furthermore, a pair of semi-circular rotating covers 18 are rotatably mounted on a pair of semi-circular oil filling covers 8. The pair of semi-circular rotating covers 18 are fixedly connected to a pair of semi-circular rotating rings 12 respectively. A mounting plate 14 is fixedly mounted on the right disk 2. A gear 15 is rotatably mounted on the mounting plate 14. A handle 16 that drives the gear 15 to rotate is mounted on the gear 15.

[0025] The throttle 16 is installed, and rotating the throttle 16 can drive the gear 15 to rotate. The gear 15 meshes with the arc-shaped toothed plate 13, which in turn drives the arc-shaped toothed plate 13 to rotate, thereby driving the rotating ring 12 to rotate.

[0026] Furthermore, the oil storage assembly includes a lubricating oil tank 17, a pair of lubricating oil tanks 17 are fixedly installed on the left plate 1 and the right plate 2 respectively, and an oil outlet pipe is fixedly connected to the bottom of the lubricating oil tank 17, and a valve is provided on the oil outlet pipe.

[0027] Lubricating oil can be stored in the lubricating oil tank 17 by installing the lubricating oil tank 17. The lubricating oil in the lubricating oil tank 17 can flow into the semi-circular oil filling hood 8 through the lubricating oil pipe installed. A valve can be installed to control the flow rate of lubricating oil into the oil filling hood 8.

[0028] Furthermore, steel balls 9 are placed inside several ball cage tubes 6.

[0029] A steel ball 9 is placed inside the ball cage tube 6. Under the action of gravity, it rests against the polished rod 4. Normally, it rolls inside the ball cage tube 6 as the polished rod 4 moves up and down. When the polished rod 4 breaks, the steel ball 9 falls into the hole of the polished rod 4, which can effectively prevent crude oil from spraying out of the oil pipe and causing pollution.

[0030] Those skilled in the art should connect all electrical components and their compatible power supplies in this case via wires, and should select appropriate controllers according to actual conditions to meet control requirements. The specific connection and control sequence should refer to the working principle described below, where the electrical connections between the various electrical components are completed in sequence.

[0031] The working principle and usage process of this utility model are as follows: When in use, open the valve so that the lubricating oil in the lubricating oil tank 17 can flow into the oil filling cover 8 through the oil outlet pipe. When the polished rod 4 needs to be lubricated, turn the handle 16 to drive the gear 15 to rotate. The gear 15 meshes with the arc-shaped toothed plate 13 to drive the arc-shaped toothed plate 13 to rotate, thereby driving a pair of rotating covers 18 to rotate, which in turn drives a pair of semi-circular rotating rings 12 to rotate, and then drives several sealing blocks 9 to rotate, thereby driving the sealing ball 11 to move out of the oil filling port 7. The lubricating oil entering the oil filling cover 8 enters the lubrication chamber 5 through the oil filling port 7 and the ball cage pipe 6 to lubricate the circumference of the polished rod 4. When oil filling is not needed, turn the handle 16 again to move the sealing ball 11 to the oil filling port 7 to seal the oil filling port 7.

[0032] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
