AI Technical Summary
In downhole milling operations, the downpressure of the milling tool is unstable, resulting in low milling efficiency and easy tooth breakage. Existing technologies cannot provide constant downpressure to prevent tooth breakage and improve efficiency.
A flexible, spring-loaded grinding shoe structure for downhole machinery is designed. By setting up a mechanical elastic element installation chamber between the milling head and the top joint, and installing the mechanical elastic element, the reverse force is buffered by the elastic principle to maintain a constant milling thrust. Combined with a limiting mechanism and a torque transmission mechanism, stable operation of the milling tool is achieved.
It effectively prevents tooth breakage during milling, while improving milling efficiency, providing relatively constant downward pressure, protecting milling tools, and improving work efficiency.
