Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to a loading rotary head, specifically a loading and pressurizing rotary head for shallow coalbed methane wells. Background Technology

[0002] In the production and maintenance of coalbed methane wells, wellbore deformation and twisting in shallow sections leading to tubing string blockage is a common and complex problem.

[0003] When a shallow section of the tubing string gets stuck, a workover rig is usually used to lift the tubing string to free it. However, if lifting with the workover rig is ineffective, drilling pressure needs to be applied downwards to free it. In this case, the tubing string is light and the drilling pressure is low, which makes it impossible to achieve the desired result. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to solve the technical problem that when using a workover rig to lift the stuck material in the current shallow well unblocking process is ineffective, applying drilling pressure downwards to unblock the stuck material is also ineffective. Therefore, this invention provides a rotary head for loading and pressurizing coalbed methane shallow wells.

[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the technical solution provided by this utility model is as follows:

[0006] A rotary head for loading and pressurizing in shallow coalbed methane wells includes a hydraulic pressure head and a fixed base;

[0007] A load-bearing plate is rotatably mounted on the top of the fixed base, and the pressure head of the hydraulic pressure head abuts against the top of the load-bearing plate.

[0008] The bottom of the fixing base is provided with an oil pipe column connector, the cross-section of which is an inverted trapezoid; the outer wall of the oil pipe column connector is provided with an external thread that matches the internal thread of the oil pipe column.

[0009] Furthermore, the top of the fixed base is provided with a mounting groove, and a thrust bearing is provided in the mounting groove;

[0010] The upper and lower washers of the thrust bearing are connected to the bearing plate and the mounting groove, respectively.

[0011] Furthermore, the bottom of the load-bearing plate is provided with a load-bearing plate flange;

[0012] The top of the fixing seat is provided with a fixing seat flange;

[0013] The fixing seat flange extends into the interior of the bearing plate flange, and there is a gap between the outer wall of the fixing seat flange and the inner wall of the bearing plate flange.

[0014] Furthermore, the tubing string connector is a hollow tube.

[0015] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0016] The rotary head for loading and pressurizing coalbed methane shallow wells provided by this utility model replaces the traditional drilling pressure loading method by setting up a bearing plate and a thrust bearing and using the hydraulic cylinder of an excavator to apply axial pressure to the bearing plate. The thrust generated by the hydraulic cylinder of the excavator first acts on the bearing plate, the bearing plate transmits the axial pressure to the thrust bearing, and the thrust bearing transmits the axial pressure to the tubing string. At the same time, a hydraulic tubing wrench or a power turntable can be used to provide circumferential rotation power for the tubing string, so that the tubing string can rotate circumferentially while bearing axial drilling pressure. It can simultaneously meet the working conditions of pressurized rotation in coalbed methane shallow well workover operations such as threading and drilling cement plugs, reducing the intensity of manual labor and improving work efficiency.
