Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of pipeline tracer technology, specifically a novel pipeline tracer capable of detecting ultra-deep pipelines. Background Technology

[0002] Accurately detecting the location of pipelines is crucial during the laying and maintenance of ultra-deep pipelines. Traditional pipeline tracers have many problems in ultra-deep environments. On the one hand, the underground environment is complex and often contains various corrosive substances. Traditional tracers have poor corrosion resistance and are easily corroded and damaged, resulting in a shortened service life.

[0003] On the other hand, there is a lot of electromagnetic interference underground. Traditional tracer lines have weak anti-interference capabilities, which makes the transmitted signals easily distorted and affects the accuracy of the detection results. At the same time, the high pressure in ultra-deep environments will also cause compression to the tracer lines. The structure of traditional tracer lines cannot withstand this and are prone to damage. Therefore, it is necessary to develop a new type of pipeline tracer line that is suitable for ultra-deep environments, has good corrosion resistance, anti-interference, pressure resistance, and stable signal transmission.

[0004] To address these issues, this invention provides a novel pipeline tracer capable of detecting ultra-deep pipelines. Utility Model Content

[0005] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model provides a novel pipeline tracer capable of detecting ultra-deep pipelines, thereby solving the problems of poor corrosion resistance, weak anti-interference ability, insufficient pressure resistance, and unstable signal transmission of traditional tracers in ultra-deep environments.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model is implemented through the following technical solution: a novel pipeline tracer capable of detecting ultra-deep pipelines, comprising an anti-corrosion outer layer, a metal shielding layer disposed on the inner side of the anti-corrosion outer layer, a buffer layer disposed on the inner side of the metal shielding layer, a wire core disposed on the inner side of the buffer layer, and a reinforcing layer wrapped around the outer side of the wire core.

[0007] Preferably, the anti-corrosion outer layer is made of polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE).

[0008] Preferably, the metal shielding layer is made of copper mesh with fine and uniform mesh openings.

[0009] Preferably, the buffer layer is made of silicone material.

[0010] Preferably, the wire core is a nickel-plated steel wire core, which is composed of high-strength steel wire and a nickel plating layer on the surface.

[0011] Preferably, the reinforcing layer is made of glass fiber cloth wound tightly and evenly.

[0012] Beneficial effects

[0013] This invention provides a novel pipeline tracer capable of detecting ultra-deep pipelines. Compared with existing technologies, it has the following advantages:

[0014] 1. This novel ultra-deep pipeline tracer effectively enhances corrosion resistance through its anti-corrosion outer layer, enabling it to operate stably for extended periods in ultra-deep environments containing corrosive substances. The metal shielding layer strengthens its anti-interference capabilities, ensuring signal transmission is unaffected by external electromagnetic interference and improving detection accuracy. The buffer layer provides excellent cushioning, enhancing the tracer's pressure resistance and allowing it to withstand high pressures in ultra-deep environments. The reinforcement layer improves the core strength and overall stability of the tracer. The core itself ensures stable signal transmission. The coordinated structure of these layers allows the tracer to effectively meet the needs of ultra-deep pipeline detection. Attached Figure Description

The terms "installation," "connection," and "linking" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; they can refer to the internal communication between two elements. For those skilled in the art, the specific meaning of the above terms in this application can be understood according to the specific circumstances.

[0021] The present application will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0022] Reference Figures 1 to 3 This application provides a novel pipeline tracer capable of detecting ultra-deep pipelines, comprising an anti-corrosion outer layer 1, a metal shielding layer 2 disposed inside the anti-corrosion outer layer 1, a buffer layer 3 disposed inside the metal shielding layer 2, a wire core 5 disposed inside the buffer layer 3, and a reinforcing layer 4 wrapped around the wire core 5. The anti-corrosion outer layer 1 is made of polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE), the metal shielding layer 2 is woven from copper mesh with fine and uniform mesh openings, the buffer layer 3 is made of silicone material, the wire core 5 is a nickel-plated steel wire core composed of high-strength steel wire and a nickel plating layer on the surface, and the reinforcing layer 4 is made of tightly and uniformly wound fiberglass cloth.

[0023] In this embodiment:

[0024] During preparation: making core 5: select high-strength steel wire, clean its surface, and then use electroplating process to uniformly plate a layer of nickel on the surface of the steel wire to form nickel-plated steel wire core 5.

[0025] Reinforcing layer 4: The fiberglass cloth is tightly wrapped around the outside of the nickel-plated steel wire core 5 to form the reinforcing layer 4. During the wrapping process, it is ensured that there are no gaps between the fiberglass cloths and that they are tightly bonded.

[0026] Buffer layer 3 is set: silicone material is wrapped around the outside of the reinforcing layer 4, and the silicone is firmly bonded to the reinforcing layer 4 through vulcanization treatment to form buffer layer 3.

[0027] Install metal shielding layer 2: Weave copper wire into a fine and uniform copper mesh, and put the copper mesh on the outside of buffer layer 3 to form metal shielding layer 2. Ensure that the copper mesh and buffer layer 3 are tightly attached. Make anti-corrosion outer layer 1: Use extrusion molding process to wrap polytetrafluoroethylene material on the outside of metal shielding layer 2 to form anti-corrosion outer layer 1, so that the structure of each layer becomes a whole.

[0028] When using the tracer: During pipeline laying, lay the tracer parallel to the pipeline, maintaining an appropriate distance between the tracer and the pipeline, generally 25-35 cm. When it is necessary to detect ultra-deep pipelines, use a dedicated detection device to send a detection signal to the tracer. The signal is transmitted through the wire core 5. Due to the effect of the metal shielding layer 2, the signal is not easily affected by external interference, and the detection device can accurately receive the feedback signal, thereby determining the location and depth of the pipeline. During use, the tracer should be inspected regularly, checking the anti-corrosion outer layer 1 and the metal shielding layer 2.

[0029] Furthermore, any content not described in detail in this specification is existing technology known to those skilled in the art.

[0030] Working Principle: When this new ultra-deep pipeline tracer is in operation, the core wire 5 serves as the signal transmission core. After receiving specific frequency electromagnetic signals emitted by ground-based specialized detection equipment, it transmits stably along its length thanks to the excellent conductivity of the nickel-plated steel wire structure, reducing signal attenuation in ultra-deep environments. The metal shielding layer 2 forms a closed electromagnetic shielding space, blocking interference from underground stray electromagnetic signals and ensuring the purity of the detection signal transmitted by the core wire 5, guaranteeing accurate reception by ground equipment. The buffer layer 3 utilizes its own elasticity and toughness to deform under ultra-deep high pressure, evenly distributing the surrounding soil pressure to itself and the adjacent metal shielding layer 2 and reinforcing layer 4, preventing excessive local pressure from directly impacting the core wire 5 and protecting its normal signal transmission function. The reinforcing layer 4 wraps around the outside of the core wire 5, enhancing its tensile and bending resistance with high strength, preventing the core wire 5 from breaking due to external forces, and maintaining the overall structural integrity of the tracer. The anti-corrosion outer layer 1 resists the erosion of underground acids, alkalis, salts, and other corrosive substances, protecting the internal structures, extending the service life of the tracer, and ensuring its long-term stable operation in ultra-deep environments. The synergistic effect of all layers enables accurate detection of ultra-deep pipelines.
