[0014] Figure 4 yes Figure 1 Enlarged structural diagram at point N. Detailed Implementation
[0015] The present invention will now be described in detail with reference to specific embodiments: like Figures 1 to 4 The cable packer shown includes an anchor body 1, a short section 2, a central tube 3, a cylinder 4, and a liner 9; The anchor body 1 has an eccentric through hole 11 and several cable through holes 12. The right end of the anchor body 1 has a countersunk hole 10. The short section 2 and the central tube 3 are respectively sealed and fixed at both ends of the cable through hole 12, and the liner 9 is sealed and fixed in the countersunk hole 10. The liner 9 is slidably fitted with a connector 5, an upper rubber sleeve seat 61, a lower rubber sleeve seat 62, a rubber sleeve assembly 64, an upper cone 71, a lower cone 72, and a slip assembly 73. The rubber sleeve assembly 64 is pressed between the upper rubber sleeve seat 61 and the lower rubber sleeve seat 62, and the slip assembly 73 is pressed between the upper cone 71 and the lower cone 72. The upper cone 71 is in contact with the connector 5, and the lower rubber sleeve seat 62 is in contact with the upper cone 71. The cylinder body 4 is sealed and fixedly installed on the anchor body 1. The piston 42 is also slidably and sealedly installed on the liner 9. A hydraulic zone is formed between the liner 9 and the cylinder body 4. The piston 42 and the connecting body 5 are both placed in the hydraulic zone. The outer wall of the piston 42 is slidably and sealedly installed with the inner wall of the cylinder body 4. The anchor body 1 and the cylinder 4 form an injection channel 41 that is connected to the hydraulic zone. The connecting body 5 is fixed to the cylinder body 4 by the first shear pin, and the lower cone 72 is fixed to the liner 9 by the second shear pin; The combination of anchor body 1 and liner 9 forms a cable passage area 31 with the central tube 3, which is the same as the cable passage hole 12.
[0016] A locking ring 43 is slidably installed on the liner 9. The left and right ends of the locking ring 43 abut against the connecting body 5 and the upper glue tube seat 61, respectively. The locking ring 43 and the liner 9 are equipped with limit teeth 45. The limit teeth 45 restrict the locking ring 43 from moving to the left, so as to prevent the packer from moving to the left and resetting after being seated.
[0017] A cavity region 51 is formed between the connecting body 5 and the liner 9. The liner 9 is slidably fitted with a stacked spring 44 and washers. The two washers are located on both sides of the stacked spring 44. The stacked spring 44 acts on the two washers. The two washers are connected to the connecting body 5 and the upper glue tube seat 61 respectively. The elastic force of the stacked spring 44 presses the locking ring 43 tightly against the upper glue tube seat 61 to prevent the locking ring 43 from shaking due to the gap between the limiting serrations 45.
[0018] A liner cap 8 is fixedly installed at the outer end of the liner 9 to enhance the structural strength at the end of the liner 9.
[0019] A retaining ring 46 is fixedly installed on the liner 9. A limiting protrusion 53 that cooperates with the retaining ring 46 is provided on the inner wall of the left end of the connecting body 5. After the limiting protrusion 53 contacts the retaining ring 46, it restricts the extreme position of the connecting body 5 to the right, so as to prevent the connecting body 5 from coming out of the hydraulic area.
[0020] The entire cable bundle is placed within the cable passage area 31. Different functional sub-cables on the entire cable bundle pass through the cable passage hole 12 and are connected to different functional devices. Hydraulic fluid is injected into the hydraulic area through the injection channel 41, pushing the piston 42 and the connecting body 5 to move to the right. The connecting body 5 pushes the upper rubber sleeve seat 61, the lower rubber sleeve seat 62, the rubber sleeve assembly 64, the upper cone 71, the lower cone 72, and the slip assembly 73 to move to the right. During this process, the first and second shear pins are cut until the lower cone 72 contacts and limits contact with the liner cap 8. The upper cone 71 and the lower cone 72 cooperate to open and anchor the slip assembly 73 to the inner wall of the well. At this time, the lower rubber sleeve seat 62 moves to the right to its limit state. The connecting body 5 pushes the upper rubber sleeve seat 61 to the left to squeeze the rubber sleeve assembly 64, deforming it and squeezing it against the inner wall of the well, thus completing the packer setting.
[0021] This packer has an internal cable passage area for a full cable bundle, as well as cable through-holes for different functional cable bundles to connect to various functional devices. The anchor body and liner are assembled into a mandrel, facilitating the machining of the eccentric through-holes and cable through-holes on the anchor body. The cable passage area formed between the central tube and the liner provides comprehensive protection for the cable, reducing the requirements for the corrosion resistance of the circuit protection sleeve.
