They are only for the convenience of describing this utility model and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this utility model.
[0019] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings: like Figures 1-8 As shown, a wellhead protection device for drilling includes a main body with a fixing mechanism slidably connected to it. The fixing mechanism includes an orifice pipe 201, a lifting bracket 202 welded to the upper end of the orifice pipe 201, and several fixing nails 203 fixedly connected to the outside of the lifting bracket 202. A sealing cover is detachably connected to the top of the orifice pipe 201. Four folding protective plates are provided on the outside of the main body. Each folding protective plate includes two symmetrically arranged first folding plates 401 hinged to the main body. A second folding plate 402 is hinged to the other end of each of the first folding plates 401. The other ends of the two second folding plates 402 are hinged to the same third folding plate 403. An unfolding slider 404 is slidably connected to the third folding plate 403. Two unfolding connecting rods 405 are hinged to the upper and lower ends of the unfolding slider 404, respectively. The other end of the upper unfolding connecting rod 405 is hinged to the fixing mechanism. The other end of the lower unfolding link 405 is hinged to the main body of the device. In use, after the initial well opening and positioning are completed, the orifice pipe 201 is aligned with the well opening and placed into it. Then, the lifting support 202 is lowered, and the fixing nail 203 and the orifice pipe 201 are lowered synchronously. The fixing nail 203 is driven into the soil to fix the device. During this process, the lowering of the lifting support 202 pushes the upper unfolding link 405 to rotate. The upper unfolding link 405 pushes and the lower unfolding link 405 limits the movement, causing the unfolding slider 404 to move obliquely downward. The unfolding slider 404 slides relative to the third folding plate 403 and pushes the third folding plate 403 to move outward. Then, the third folding plate 403 drives the second folding plate 402 to move. The second folding plate 402 pushes open the first folding plate 401, and the folding guard plate unfolds to form a guardrail to prevent personnel from approaching the device.
[0020] The main body of the device includes a base 101, which is slidably connected to a fixing nail 203. Four sets of symmetrically arranged support rods 102 are fixedly connected to the top of the base 101. The support rods 102 are hinged to the first folding plate 401. An upper bracket 103 is fixedly connected to the top of the support rods 102. Four evenly arranged lower hinge ears 108 are fixedly connected to the top of the base 101. The lower hinge ears 108 are hinged to the other end of the lower unfolding connecting rod 405. In use, the support rods 102 are used to support the rotation of the first folding plate 401, and the lower unfolding connecting rod 405 rotates with the lower hinge ears 108 as the center.
[0021] A first gear ring 105 is rotatably connected to the top center of the upper bracket 103. Four first gears 106 are hinged to the outside of the first gear ring 105. A vertical screw 104 is fixedly connected to the middle of the first gear 106. The vertical screw 104 is rotatably connected to the base 101 and the upper bracket 103. The vertical screw 104 is threadedly connected to the lifting bracket 202. A lowering knob 107 is fixedly connected to the top of the vertical screw 104. Several first gear rings 105 and first gears 106 are enclosed in a protective shell (not shown in the figure). In use, the operator drives one of the lowering knobs 107 to rotate using a tool. The lowering knob 107 drives the first gear 106 to rotate. The first gear 106 drives the first gear ring 105 to rotate. The first gear ring 105 drives the remaining first gears 106 to rotate. Thus, the four first gears 106 rotate synchronously. The first gear 106 drives the vertical screw 104 to rotate. The vertical screw 104 drives the lifting bracket 202 to descend.
[0022] The bottom of the lifting bracket 202 is fixedly connected with four evenly arranged upper hinge ears 204. The upper hinge ears 204 are correspondingly arranged with the lower hinge ears 108. The upper hinge ears 204 are hinged to the other end of the upper unfolding connecting rod 405. The top of the orifice tube 201 is fixedly connected with several evenly arranged fixing bolts 205. In use, the upper unfolding connecting rod 405 rotates with the upper hinge ears 204 as the center. The fixing bolts 205 are used to connect with the sealing cover.
[0023] The sealing cover includes a cover body 301. A second gear ring 303 is rotatably connected to the center of the cover body 301. Several second gears 302 are meshed on the outer side of the second gear ring 303. The second gears 302 are rotatably connected to the cover body 301. The center of the second gear 302 is provided with an internal thread, which can be threadedly connected to the fixing bolt 205. The cover body 301 is provided with several holes for the fixing bolts 205 to pass through. A locking knob 304 is coaxially fixedly connected to the top of the second gear ring 303. In use, the holes on the cover body 301 are aligned with the fixing bolts 205. Then, the fixing bolts 205 abut against the internal thread in the middle of the second gears 302. The operator uses a tool to drive the locking knob 304 to rotate. The locking knob 304 drives the second gear ring 303 to rotate. The second gear ring 303 drives the second gears 302 to rotate. The second gears 302 are threadedly engaged with the fixing bolts 205. Thus, the cover body 301 and the orifice tube 201 cooperate to seal the upper end of the orifice tube 201.
[0024] The first folding plate 401, the second folding plate 402, and the third folding plate 403 are made of plastic. The outer surface of the second folding plate 402 and the third folding plate 403 is provided with clear warning signs. When in use, the use of plastic material reduces the weight of the device, and the warning signs are provided to remind people to approach.
[0025] Working principle: After initial well positioning, the orifice pipe 201 is aligned with the wellhead and inserted. The operator uses a tool to drive one of the lowering knobs 107, which in turn drives the first gear 106. The first gear 106 drives the first gear ring 105, which in turn drives the remaining first gears 106. Thus, all four first gears 106 rotate synchronously, driving the vertical screw 104 to rotate. The vertical screw 104 then drives the lifting support 202 to descend. As the lifting support 202 descends, the fixing nail 203 and the orifice pipe 201 descend synchronously, driving the fixing nail 203 into the soil and securing the device. During this process, the descent of the lifting support 202 pushes the upper unfolding connecting rod 405 to rotate. The upper unfolding connecting rod 405 pushes, and the lower unfolding connecting rod 405 limits the movement, causing the unfolding slider 404 to move diagonally downwards. The unfolding slider 404 then interacts with the third folding plate 40... 3. Relative sliding occurs, pushing the third folding plate 403 outward. The third folding plate 403 then moves the second folding plate 402. The second folding plate 402 pushes open the first folding plate 401, and the folding guardrail unfolds to form a barrier, preventing personnel from approaching the device. At this time, the sealing cover is not yet connected to the orifice pipe 201, so geological drilling can continue through the orifice pipe 201. After the drilling is completed, the sealing cover needs to be connected to the orifice pipe 201. Align the hole on the cover 301 with the fixing bolt 205. Then, the fixing bolt 205 abuts against the middle internal thread of the second gear 302. The operator uses a tool to drive the locking knob 304 to rotate. The locking knob 304 drives the second gear ring 303 to rotate. The second gear ring 303 drives the second gear 302 to rotate. The second gear 302 engages with the fixing bolt 205, so the cover 301 and the orifice pipe 201 cooperate to seal the upper end of the orifice pipe 201.
[0026] The foregoing has shown and described the basic principles, main features, and advantages of this utility model. Those skilled in the art should understand that this utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. The embodiments and descriptions in the specification are merely illustrative of the principles of this utility model. Various changes and modifications can be made to this utility model without departing from its spirit and scope, and all such changes and modifications fall within the scope of the claimed utility model.
