Description

Downhole closed-loop anti-deflection tool

[0001] CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS

[0002] This application claims the benefit of Chinese patent application No. 202311198852.1 filed on September 15, 2023, the contents of which are incorporated herein by reference. Technical Field

[0003] The present invention relates to the field of directional drilling instruments in the oil drilling industry, and in particular to a downhole closed-loop anti-deflection tool. Background Art

[0004] Vertical wells account for 60% of all drilling worldwide. With the continuous expansion of exploration and development, the workload in high-steep structures and steeply inclined formations is increasing, and the challenge of preventing and straightening wells is becoming increasingly prominent. Preventing and straightening wells has always been a complex and pressing issue in drilling. Currently, two main approaches are used for preventing and straightening wells: active and passive.

[0005] Passive deflection prevention and fast drilling techniques include tower drill assemblies, pendulum drill assemblies, rigid drill assemblies, eccentric drill assemblies, and single-bend screw composite drilling assemblies. When formation deflection forces are low, utilizing tower and pendulum drill assemblies, along with inclination measurement while drilling and timely parameter adjustments, allows for efficient drilling and effective wellbore inclination control. However, when formation deflection forces are high, any deflection prevention assembly can only stabilize wellbore inclination to a certain extent, but will not effectively reduce inclination.

[0006] Active deflection prevention and straightening measures primarily involve the use of vertical drilling tools to achieve this drilling goal. Currently, the vast majority of vertical drilling tools, both domestically and internationally, utilize integrated electromechanical and hydraulic designs. These tools are characterized by significant deflection prevention and straightening effectiveness and high control precision. However, they are complex and expensive. Furthermore, with the advancement of deep and ultra-deep well drilling technology, downhole temperatures have risen, reaching 175°C or even above 200°C. Due to the temperature limitations of electronic components, the failure rate of vertical drilling tools has increased significantly, making them unable to meet the requirements for deflection prevention in drilling.

[0045] Example 1

[0046] Referring to Figures 1 to 12 , this solution provides a downhole closed-loop anti-deflection tool, which includes:

[0047] a housing, the two ends of which are respectively connectable to a drill rod and a drill bit;

[0048] A rotary impeller 7 is provided in the housing, and the rotary impeller 7 can be driven to rotate by drilling fluid;

[0049] A hydraulic pump 16 disposed in the housing and drivingly connected to the rotating impeller 7;

[0050] recessed portions provided at circumferential intervals on the outer periphery of the housing;

[0051] a plunger 42 movably disposed in the recess and a biasing plate 44 disposed on an outer surface of the plunger 42 ;

[0052] a plurality of hydraulic flow paths provided in the housing at circumferential intervals, the plurality of hydraulic flow paths respectively connecting the hydraulic pump 16 and each of the recessed portions;

[0053] An eccentric diverter plate 26 is provided on the plurality of hydraulic flow paths, with a notch provided on the outer periphery of the eccentric diverter plate to allow communication with one of the hydraulic flow paths. The center of gravity of the eccentric diverter plate 26 and the notch are respectively located on either side of a central axis 29 thereof, and the eccentric diverter plate 26 is capable of rotating about the central axis 29;

[0054] When the shell is tilted, the eccentric diverter disc 26 rotates to a state where the notch is at a higher position and the center of gravity is at a lower position, so as to connect one of the hydraulic flow paths and disconnect the other hydraulic flow paths, thereby driving the plunger 42 and the push plate 44 corresponding to the connected hydraulic flow path to move radially outward.

[0055] The main function of the downhole closed-loop anti-deflection tool is to prevent the drill bit from lateral deflection during drilling.

[0056] The housing is generally tubular and is formed by connecting multiple tubular structures. During use, the housing is arranged to extend in a vertical direction, and when tilted, its central axis forms an angle with respect to the vertical direction.

[0057] The rotary impeller 7 is coaxially arranged in the housing and can rotate under the action of the drilling fluid passing through the housing, thereby transmitting torque to the hydraulic pump 16 to drive the hydraulic pump 16 to operate. The hydraulic pump 16 can deliver hydraulic oil to the hydraulic flow path to act on the plunger 42 through the hydraulic oil.

[0058] The plunger 42 and the push plate 44 are disposed in a recessed portion on the outer periphery of the housing and can move radially outward under the action of hydraulic oil, so that the push plate 44 protrudes to support the wellbore wall.

[0059] When the drill rod or drill bit is deflected, the shell is also deflected, for example, deflected toward the first direction. Due to the deflection of the shell, the central axis of the eccentric diverter disc 26 also forms a deflection angle with the vertical axis. In addition, the eccentric center of gravity of the eccentric diverter disc 26 is eccentrically set, so that the eccentric diverter disc 26 rotates under the action of gravity, and its center of gravity is at a lower position, while the position of the notch (relatively far away from the center of gravity) is at a higher position. The notch is also located in the first direction. The notch connects to the corresponding hydraulic flow path, so that the plunger 42 located in the first direction moves radially outward under the pressure of the hydraulic oil, thereby pushing the push plate 44 to extend and support on the drilling wall. The other push plates 44 are not extended. Therefore, the extended push plates 44 cause the shell to return to the non-deflected position where the center axis extends vertically.

[0060] For example, when the drill rod or drill bit deviates to the east, the center of gravity of the eccentric diverter plate 26 rotates to the west side of the central axis, and the notch rotates to the east side of the central axis to connect the hydraulic flow path on the east side, so that the plunger 42 and the push plate 44 extend outward and are supported on the drilling wall, thereby causing the shell and the drill rod or drill bit to move westward through the reaction force of the drilling wall, correcting the deflection.

[0061] In this solution, the automatic rotation of the eccentric diverter disk due to downhole gravity distributes the downhole high-pressure fluid, controls the plunger movement, and realizes closed-loop automatic operation. The entire tool set contains no electronic components, and unlike existing mechatronic anti-skew tools, it has no temperature restrictions and can fully adapt to normal temperature, high temperature, and ultra-high temperature well environments. At the same time, due to the reduction of electronic components, the tool manufacturing cost will also be greatly reduced. The downhole closed-loop anti-skew tool can meet the downhole closed-loop anti-skew work requirements during drilling while being low-cost and easy to maintain.

[0062] The downhole closed-loop anti-deflection tool further includes a non-magnetic outer cylinder 10, a drive shaft 6 rotatably disposed within the non-magnetic outer cylinder 10 and transmission-connected to the hydraulic pump 16, and a rotating impeller 7 rotatably sleeved on the non-magnetic outer cylinder 10. The drive shaft 6 and the rotating impeller 7 are magnetically coupled. The non-magnetic outer cylinder 10 is used to isolate the hydraulic pump 16, the drive shaft 6, and the rotating impeller 7 to better protect the hydraulic pump 16 and the drive shaft 6 from or reduce the impact of drilling fluid. The drive shaft 6 can be made of a magnetic material or embedded with magnets, and the rotating impeller 7 can similarly be made of a magnetic material or embedded with magnets. The drive shaft 6 and the rotating impeller 7 are magnetically coupled to each other, and when the rotating impeller 7 rotates, it also magnetically acts on the drive shaft 6, driving the drive shaft 6 to rotate. The drive shaft 6 is coaxially connected to the hydraulic pump 16 to transmit torque to the hydraulic pump 16.

[0063] The upper end of the non-magnetic outer cylinder 10 is connected to a conical rod 2. The upper end of the conical rod 2 is tapered to guide the drilling fluid around it, thereby impacting the rotating impeller 7. The conical rod 2 is a stepped shaft-like component with four rubber ribs vulcanized at the step to engage the inner circumference of the housing (e.g., the upper outer cylinder 1). The lower end of the conical rod 2 is threaded to connect with the non-magnetic outer cylinder 10.

[0064] The non-magnetic outer cylinder 10 is sleeved with an upper alloy inner ring 4 on its upper portion and a lower alloy inner ring 9 on its lower portion. The rotating impeller 7 is provided with an upper alloy outer ring 5 rotatably sleeved on the upper alloy inner ring 4 at its upper end and a lower alloy outer ring 8 rotatably sleeved on the lower alloy inner ring 9 at its lower end. The upper alloy inner ring 4 and 5, and the lower alloy inner ring 9 and 8 form a bearing-like structure, allowing the rotating impeller 7 to be rotatably mounted on the outer circumference of the non-magnetic outer cylinder 10.

[0065] The upper end of the drive shaft 6 is mounted on the non-magnetic outer cylinder 10 via a sliding bearing 3 , and the lower end of the drive shaft 6 is mounted on the non-magnetic outer cylinder 10 via a lower bearing 11 .

[0066] The non-magnetic outer cylinder 10 is a threaded component with both ends. The lower end is threaded onto a conversion joint 15. The outer cylindrical step fits over the rotating impeller 7, and the inner bore houses the sliding bearing 3, drive shaft 6, and lower bearing 11. The inner ring of the sliding bearing 3 fits over the drive shaft 6, while the outer ring fits over the non-magnetic outer cylinder 10. The outer ring of the lower bearing 11 fits over the non-magnetic outer cylinder 10, while the inner ring fits over the drive shaft 6. The drive shaft 6 is a magnetic component electrochemically coated with magnetic powder. One end is machined with a square hole for inserting a hydraulic pump 16. A disc spring 12 and a compression rubber spring 13 are mounted on the outer cylindrical portion. One end of the disc spring 12 engages the boss end of the drive shaft 6, while the other end engages the compression rubber spring 13. This creates compression when the non-magnetic outer cylinder 10 is threadedly connected to the conversion joint 15. The conversion joint 15 partially fits over the upper end of the hydraulic pump 16 and is screwed to the hydraulic pump 16 via screws 14. In addition, the lower end of the hydraulic pump 16 is provided with a commutation joint 18 connected to the conversion joint 15. The conversion joint 15 and the commutation joint 18 form a seal at the lower end of the non-magnetic outer cylinder 10, thereby forming a sealed space inside the non-magnetic outer cylinder 10.

[0067] The housing includes an upper outer cylinder 1, which is provided with an oil reservoir 21 and a rubber sleeve 24 that is sleeved on the oil reservoir 21. An annular hydraulic oil chamber is formed between the rubber sleeve 24 and the oil reservoir 21, and the hydraulic oil chamber is connected to each of the hydraulic flow paths. As shown in FIG2 , the outer diameters of the oil reservoir 21 are larger at both ends, and an annular groove is formed on the outer periphery of the middle portion. A hydraulic oil chamber is formed between the middle portion and the rubber sleeve 24. The hydraulic oil chamber can store a certain volume of hydraulic oil so that the hydraulic pump 16 can deliver it to the corresponding recessed portion and act on the plunger 42. Oil circuits are formed in the two end portions of the oil reservoir 21 to connect the oil circuits to other structures on the upper and lower sides of the oil reservoir 21.

[0068] An anti-collision sleeve 22 is embedded in the inner hole of the left end of the oil reservoir 21. This sleeve 22 is a cylindrical component with a tapered inner hole. Annular grooves are provided on the outer circumference of both ends of the oil reservoir 21. Annular protrusions are provided on the inner circumference of both ends of the rubber sleeve 24, each of which is accommodated in the two annular grooves. An upper fixing sleeve 20 and a lower fixing sleeve 25 are respectively mounted on the ends of the rubber sleeve 24 to press the rubber sleeve 24 against the oil reservoir 21.

[0069] The lower portion of the upper outer cylinder 1 is formed with an annular step, which is provided with inlets corresponding to the multiple hydraulic flow paths. The eccentric diverter plate 26 is disposed between the lower end of the oil reservoir 21 and the annular step. A certain gap exists between the eccentric diverter plate 26, the oil reservoir 21, and the annular step, allowing a small amount of hydraulic oil to pass through the gap and reach the center hole of the upper outer cylinder 1. When the housing returns from a deflected state to a vertical position, the previously extended push plate 44 and plunger 42 move radially inward under the action of the wellbore wall, causing the hydraulic oil to return along the hydraulic flow path. At this time, due to the non-deflected state, the eccentric diverter plate 26 may not rotate as much as before, allowing the hydraulic oil to return to the hydraulic oil chamber through the gap. If the gap is offset, the hydraulic oil can enter the center hole of the upper outer cylinder 1 through the gap between the eccentric diverter plate 26 and the annular step of the upper outer cylinder 1.

[0070] In addition, a pump end connector 17, a flow converter connector 18, and a bypass connector 19 are provided between the hydraulic pump 16 and the oil reservoir 21. The hydraulic pump 16 and the oil reservoir 21 are connected via a main flow path provided in the pump end connector 17, the flow converter connector 18, and the bypass connector 19. Each of the pump end connector 17, the flow converter connector 18, and the bypass connector 19 can include a main flow path to connect the hydraulic pump 16 to the oil path in the oil reservoir 21. As shown in FIG2 , the bypass connector 19 has a center hole, which bypasses the surrounding annulus through radial holes, allowing drilling fluid in the annulus to enter the bypass connector 19 and flow downward. The bypass connector 19 has elongated channels machined into it: one channel is a high-pressure oil output channel, and the other is a low-pressure oil return channel. The high-pressure oil output channel and the low-pressure oil return channel are connected to the flow converter connector 18 and the oil reservoir 21 at their respective ends.

[0071] In addition, part of the hydraulic flow path is provided in the upper outer cylinder 1 , and a radial blind hole communicating with the hydraulic flow path is provided, and the radial blind hole is sealed by a sealing plug 27 .

[0072] The downhole closed-loop anti-deflection tool also includes a central shaft 29 connected to the lower end of the upper outer tube 1, and a lower outer tube 36 rotatably mounted on the central shaft 29. The lower outer tube 36 is provided with the recessed portion. A portion of the hydraulic flow path is provided within the central shaft 29, and a rectangular ring 28 is provided between the central shaft 29 and the upper outer tube 1, surrounding the hydraulic flow path to enhance sealing. The lower outer tube 36 can rotate relative to the central shaft 29, allowing the push plate 44 to rotate relative to the upper outer tube 1 and the central shaft 29, thereby preventing the downhole closed-loop anti-deflection tool from becoming stuck as it rotates with the drill pipe.

[0073] The downhole closed-loop anti-deflection tool also includes an inner sleeve 30 fixedly mounted on the central shaft 29 and an upper oil seal housing 32 rotatably mounted on the inner sleeve 30 via a sleeve bearing 34. The upper end of the lower outer cylinder 36 is fixedly mounted on the upper oil seal housing 32. The central shaft 29, the inner sleeve 30, and the lower outer cylinder 36 are each provided with a hydraulic flow path. The inner sleeve 30 is connected to the lower outer cylinder 26, and the upper oil seal housing 32 is connected to the central shaft 29. A sleeve bearing 34 is provided between the inner sleeve 30 and the upper oil seal housing 32 to enable rotation therebetween.

[0074] An upper lubricating oil chamber, located above the sleeve bearing 34, is formed between the upper oil seal housing 32 and the inner sleeve 30. A sealing ring groove is machined into the inner inclined surface of the inner sleeve 30, housing a sealing ring. An upper oil seal ring 31 and the upper oil seal housing 32 are mounted on the outer circumference of the inner sleeve 30. The upper oil seal ring 31, upper oil seal housing 32, inner sleeve 30, and oil-isolating rubber ring 35 form the upper lubricating oil chamber. This chamber is filled with lubricating oil through a tapered hole in the upper oil seal housing 32 (sealed by a tapered plug 33), providing lubrication for the sleeve bearing 34.

[0075] A diverter ring 37 is disposed between the upper oil seal housing 32 and the lower outer cylinder 36. Multiple radial flow paths are arranged in an axially spaced relationship within the diverter ring 37, and these radial flow paths are aligned and connected to each hydraulic flow path. The radial flow paths within the diverter ring 37 are connected to each hydraulic flow path within the inner sleeve 30 and to each hydraulic flow path within the lower outer cylinder 36.

[0076] Among them, the upper and lower ends of the recessed portion are respectively provided with limit blocks 38, and a radially retractable limit spring 41 is provided between the limit block 38 and the push plate 44; and / or, a composite spring 43 is provided between the push plate 44 and the plunger 42. The limit block 38 is a square part, which is connected to the orifice plate 39 by a bolt 40. The orifice plate 39 is inserted into the stepped inner groove of the lower outer cylinder 36. A limit spring 41 is installed between the limit block 38 and the push plate 44. There are two groups of limit blocks 38, limit springs 41, orifice plates 39, and bolts 40, which are respectively installed at both ends of the push plate 44. The push plate 44 is a long strip-shaped part with a superhard material such as PDC or cemented carbide inlaid on the surface and a square groove inside. The two ends extend out and are limited by the limit spring 41, the limit block 38, etc.

[0077] The plunger 42 is a rectangular boss mounted in a recessed portion within the lower outer cylinder 36. Its top surface abuts against the support plate 44, while its bottom surface communicates with the hydraulic flow path of the lower outer cylinder 36. Composite springs 43 are mounted between the top and sides of the plunger 42 and the support plate 44. Composite springs 43 are an elastic combination of cylindrical rubber and compression springs, used to stabilize the movement of the support plate 44.

[0078] In addition, the lower end of the central shaft 29 is connected to a lower joint 49, and a lower oil seal housing 47 is sleeved on the upper portion of the lower joint 49, forming a lower lubricating oil chamber between the lower oil seal housing 47 and the lower joint 49.

[0080] Example 2

[0081] Referring to Figures 1 to 12 , this solution provides a downhole closed-loop anti-deflection tool, which includes:

[0082] a housing, the two ends of which are respectively connectable to a drill rod and a drill bit;

[0083] A rotary impeller 7 is provided in the housing, and the rotary impeller 7 can be driven to rotate by drilling fluid;

[0084] A hydraulic pump 16 disposed in the housing and drivingly connected to the rotating impeller 7;

[0085] recessed portions provided at circumferential intervals on the outer periphery of the housing;

[0086] a plunger 42 movably disposed in the recess and a biasing plate 44 disposed on an outer surface of the plunger 42 ;

[0087] a plurality of hydraulic flow paths provided in the housing at circumferential intervals, the plurality of hydraulic flow paths respectively connecting the hydraulic pump 16 and each of the recessed portions;

[0088] An eccentric diverter plate 26 is provided on the plurality of hydraulic flow paths, with a notch provided on the outer periphery of the eccentric diverter plate to allow communication with one of the hydraulic flow paths. The center of gravity of the eccentric diverter plate 26 and the notch are respectively located on either side of a central axis 29 thereof, and the eccentric diverter plate 26 is capable of rotating about the central axis 29;

[0089] When the shell is tilted, the eccentric diverter disc 26 rotates to a state where the notch is at a higher position and the center of gravity is at a lower position, so as to connect one of the hydraulic flow paths and disconnect the other hydraulic flow paths, thereby driving the plunger 42 and the push plate 44 corresponding to the connected hydraulic flow path to move radially outward.

[0090] The main function of the downhole closed-loop anti-deflection tool is to prevent the drill bit from lateral deflection during drilling.

[0091] The housing is generally tubular and is formed by connecting multiple tubular structures. During use, the housing is arranged to extend in a vertical direction, and when tilted, its central axis forms an angle with respect to the vertical direction.

[0092] The rotary impeller 7 is coaxially arranged in the housing and can rotate under the action of the drilling fluid passing through the housing, thereby transmitting torque to the hydraulic pump 16 to drive the hydraulic pump 16 to operate. The hydraulic pump 16 can deliver hydraulic oil to the hydraulic flow path to act on the plunger 42 through the hydraulic oil.

[0093] The plunger 42 and the push plate 44 are disposed in a recessed portion on the outer periphery of the housing and can move radially outward under the action of hydraulic oil, so that the push plate 44 protrudes to support the wellbore wall.

[0094] When the drill rod or drill bit is deflected, the shell is also deflected, for example, deflected toward the first direction. Due to the deflection of the shell, the central axis of the eccentric diverter disc 26 also forms a deflection angle with the vertical axis. In addition, the eccentric center of gravity of the eccentric diverter disc 26 is eccentrically set, so that the eccentric diverter disc 26 rotates under the action of gravity, and its center of gravity is at a lower position, while the position of the notch (relatively far away from the center of gravity) is at a higher position. The notch is also located in the first direction. The notch connects to the corresponding hydraulic flow path, so that the plunger 42 located in the first direction moves radially outward under the pressure of the hydraulic oil, thereby pushing the push plate 44 to extend and support on the drilling wall. The other push plates 44 are not extended. Therefore, the extended push plates 44 cause the shell to return to the non-deflected position where the center axis extends vertically.

[0095] For example, when the drill rod or drill bit deviates to the east, the center of gravity of the eccentric diverter plate 26 rotates to the west side of the central axis, and the notch rotates to the east side of the central axis to connect the hydraulic flow path on the east side, so that the plunger 42 and the push plate 44 extend outward and are supported on the drilling wall, thereby causing the shell and the drill rod or drill bit to move westward through the reaction force of the drilling wall, correcting the deflection.

[0096] In this solution, the automatic rotation of the eccentric diverter disk due to downhole gravity distributes the downhole high-pressure fluid, controls the plunger movement, and realizes closed-loop automatic operation. The entire tool set contains no electronic components, and unlike existing mechatronic anti-skew tools, it has no temperature restrictions and can fully adapt to normal temperature, high temperature, and ultra-high temperature well environments. At the same time, due to the reduction of electronic components, the tool manufacturing cost will also be greatly reduced. The downhole closed-loop anti-skew tool can meet the downhole closed-loop anti-skew work requirements during drilling while being low-cost and easy to maintain.

[0097] The downhole closed-loop anti-deflection tool further includes a non-magnetic outer cylinder 10, a drive shaft 6 rotatably disposed within the non-magnetic outer cylinder 10 and transmission-connected to the hydraulic pump 16, and a rotating impeller 7 rotatably sleeved on the non-magnetic outer cylinder 10. The drive shaft 6 and the rotating impeller 7 are magnetically coupled. The non-magnetic outer cylinder 10 is used to isolate the hydraulic pump 16, the drive shaft 6, and the rotating impeller 7 to better protect the hydraulic pump 16 and the drive shaft 6 from or reduce the impact of drilling fluid. The drive shaft 6 can be made of a magnetic material or embedded with magnets, and the rotating impeller 7 can similarly be made of a magnetic material or embedded with magnets. The drive shaft 6 and the rotating impeller 7 are magnetically coupled to each other, and when the rotating impeller 7 rotates, it also magnetically acts on the drive shaft 6, driving the drive shaft 6 to rotate. The drive shaft 6 is coaxially connected to the hydraulic pump 16 to transmit torque to the hydraulic pump 16.

[0098] The upper end of the non-magnetic outer cylinder 10 is connected to a conical rod 2. The upper end of the conical rod 2 is tapered to guide the drilling fluid around it, thereby impacting the rotating impeller 7. The conical rod 2 is a stepped shaft-like component with four rubber ribs vulcanized at the step to engage the inner circumference of the housing (e.g., the upper outer cylinder 1). The lower end of the conical rod 2 is threaded to connect to the non-magnetic outer cylinder 10.

[0099] The non-magnetic outer cylinder 10 is sleeved with an upper alloy inner ring 4 on its upper portion and a lower alloy inner ring 9 on its lower portion. The rotating impeller 7 is provided with an upper alloy outer ring 5 rotatably sleeved on the upper alloy inner ring 4 at its upper end and a lower alloy outer ring 8 rotatably sleeved on the lower alloy inner ring 9 at its lower end. The upper alloy inner ring 4 and 5, and the lower alloy inner ring 9 and 8 form a bearing-like structure, allowing the rotating impeller 7 to be rotatably mounted on the outer circumference of the non-magnetic outer cylinder 10.

[0100] The upper end of the drive shaft 6 is mounted on the non-magnetic outer cylinder 10 via a sliding bearing 3 , and the lower end of the drive shaft 6 is mounted on the non-magnetic outer cylinder 10 via a lower bearing 11 .

[0101] The non-magnetic outer cylinder 10 is a threaded component with both ends. The lower end is threaded onto a conversion joint 15. The outer cylindrical step fits over the rotating impeller 7, and the inner bore houses the sliding bearing 3, drive shaft 6, and lower bearing 11. The inner ring of the sliding bearing 3 fits over the drive shaft 6, while the outer ring fits over the non-magnetic outer cylinder 10. The outer ring of the lower bearing 11 fits over the non-magnetic outer cylinder 10, while the inner ring fits over the drive shaft 6. The drive shaft 6 is a magnetic component electrochemically coated with magnetic powder. One end is machined with a square hole for inserting a hydraulic pump 16. A disc spring 12 and a compression rubber spring 13 are mounted on the outer cylindrical portion. One end of the disc spring 12 engages the boss end of the drive shaft 6, while the other end engages the compression rubber spring 13. This creates compression when the non-magnetic outer cylinder 10 is threadedly connected to the conversion joint 15. The conversion joint 15 partially fits over the upper end of the hydraulic pump 16 and is screwed to the hydraulic pump 16 via screws 14. In addition, the lower end of the hydraulic pump 16 is provided with a commutation joint 18 connected to the conversion joint 15. The conversion joint 15 and the commutation joint 18 form a seal at the lower end of the non-magnetic outer cylinder 10, thereby forming a sealed space inside the non-magnetic outer cylinder 10.

[0102] The housing includes an upper outer tube 1, which is provided with a tubular oil reservoir. An annular hydraulic oil chamber is formed within the reservoir, which is connected to each of the hydraulic flow paths. The reservoir can be composed of an inner tube, an outer tube, and annular end plates at both ends.

[0103] The lower portion of the upper outer cylinder 1 is formed with an annular step, which is provided with inlets corresponding to the multiple hydraulic flow paths. The eccentric diverter plate 26 is disposed between the lower end of the oil reservoir 21 and the annular step. A certain gap exists between the eccentric diverter plate 26, the oil reservoir 21, and the annular step, allowing a small amount of hydraulic oil to pass through the gap and reach the center hole of the upper outer cylinder 1. When the housing returns from a deflected state to a vertical position, the previously extended push plate 44 and plunger 42 move radially inward under the action of the wellbore wall, causing the hydraulic oil to return along the hydraulic flow path. At this time, due to the non-deflected state, the eccentric diverter plate 26 may not rotate as much as before, allowing the hydraulic oil to return to the hydraulic oil chamber through the gap. If the gap is offset, the hydraulic oil can enter the center hole of the upper outer cylinder 1 through the gap between the eccentric diverter plate 26 and the annular step of the upper outer cylinder 1.

[0104] In addition, a pump end connector 17, a flow converter connector 18, and a bypass connector 19 are provided between the hydraulic pump 16 and the oil reservoir 21. The hydraulic pump 16 and the oil reservoir 21 are connected via a main flow path provided in the pump end connector 17, the flow converter connector 18, and the bypass connector 19. Each of the pump end connector 17, the flow converter connector 18, and the bypass connector 19 can include a main flow path to connect the hydraulic pump 16 to the oil path in the oil reservoir 21. As shown in FIG2 , the bypass connector 19 has a center hole, which bypasses the surrounding annulus through radial holes, allowing drilling fluid in the annulus to enter the bypass connector 19 and flow downward. The bypass connector 19 has elongated channels machined into it: one channel is a high-pressure oil output channel, and the other is a low-pressure oil return channel. The high-pressure oil output channel and the low-pressure oil return channel are connected to the flow converter connector 18 and the oil reservoir 21 at their respective ends.

[0105] In addition, part of the hydraulic flow path is provided in the upper outer cylinder 1 , and a radial blind hole communicating with the hydraulic flow path is provided, and the radial blind hole is sealed by a sealing plug 27 .

A portion of the hydraulic flow path is provided within the central shaft 29, and a rectangular ring 28 is provided between the central shaft 29 and the upper outer tube 1, surrounding the hydraulic flow path to enhance sealing. The lower outer tube 36 can rotate relative to the central shaft 29, allowing the push plate 44 to rotate relative to the upper outer tube 1 and the central shaft 29, thereby preventing the downhole closed-loop anti-deflection tool from becoming stuck as it rotates with the drill pipe.

[0107] The downhole closed-loop anti-deflection tool also includes an inner sleeve 30 fixedly mounted on the central shaft 29 and an upper oil seal housing 32 rotatably mounted on the inner sleeve 30 via a sleeve bearing 34.

[0108] An upper lubricating oil chamber, located above the sleeve bearing 34, is formed between the upper oil seal housing 32 and the inner sleeve 30. A sealing ring groove is machined into the inner inclined surface of the inner sleeve 30, housing a sealing ring. An upper oil seal ring 31 and the upper oil seal housing 32 are mounted on the outer circumference of the inner sleeve 30. The upper oil seal ring 31, upper oil seal housing 32, inner sleeve 30, and oil-isolating rubber ring 35 form the upper lubricating oil chamber. This chamber is filled with lubricating oil through a tapered hole in the upper oil seal housing 32 (sealed by a tapered plug 33), providing lubrication for the sleeve bearing 34.

[0109] A diverter ring 37 is disposed between the upper oil seal housing 32 and the lower outer cylinder 36. Multiple radial flow paths are arranged in an axially spaced relationship within the diverter ring 37, and these radial flow paths are aligned and connected to each hydraulic flow path. The radial flow paths within the diverter ring 37 are connected to each hydraulic flow path within the inner sleeve 30 and to each hydraulic flow path within the lower outer cylinder 36.
