DETAILED DESCRIPTION
(12) Hereinafter, the present application will be specifically described by way of exemplary embodiments. However, it should be understood that an element, a structure, and a feature in one embodiment may be advantageously combined into other embodiments without further recitation.
(13) In the description of the present application, it should be noted that a longitudinal direction of a pulsed jet type weight-on-bit self-adjusting drill bit is a vertical direction after installation; terms inner, outer, upper, middle, lower and the like indicate the positional or positional relationship based on the positional relationship shown in the drawings, and are merely for easily describing the present application and for simplifying the description, rather indicating or implying that a device or an element shall have a particular orientation, be constructed and operated in a particular orientation, and therefore should not be construed as a limitation of the present application. In addition, terms first, second, and the like are used for descriptive purposes only and are not to be construed as indicating or implying relative importance.
(14) As shown in
(15) The driving element 12 drives the rotating element 13 to rotate, when the rotating element 13 covers the flow-through passage on the throttling element 14, an amount of the drilling fluid through the flow-through passage on the throttling element 14 is reduced, when the rotating element 13 does not cover the flow-through passage on the throttling element 14, the amount of the drilling fluid through the flow-through passage on the throttling element 14 is increased.
(16) The aforementioned pulsating impact generating mechanism 1 realizes periodical change of the amount of the drilling fluid through the flow-through passage on the throttling element 14 by cooperation between the rotating element 13 and the throttling element 14, thereby forming a pulsed jet.
(17) When the pulsating impact generating mechanism 1 is applied in a drill bit used in a drilling process, on the one hand, the pulsed jet may be formed at nozzles of the drill bit and reduce chip hold down effect of the drill bit, thereby protecting the drill bit and increasing ROP, on the other hand, by modulating the amount of the drilling fluid in the pulsating impact generating mechanism 1, when the rotating element 13 covers the flow-through passage on the throttling element 14, since the passage through which the drilling fluid flows is blocked, the drilling fluid exerts an overall axial downward impact on the pulsating impact generating mechanism 1, and can further generate weight impact on a member disposed below the pulsating impact generating mechanism 1.
(18) Referring to
(19) Referring to
(20) Further referring to
(21) In order to prevent the two ends of the spiral rotor from being damaged due to erosion by the drilling fluid, in another preferred embodiment, referring to
(22) As a preferred embodiment, as shown in
(23) Further, the impeller blades 1311 are uniformly distributed in a circumferential direction, the number of the impeller blades 1311 can be adjusted according to drilling engineering requirements.
(24) As a preferred embodiment, as shown in
(25) The spiral rotor 121 drives the impeller 131 to rotate, the impeller blade 1311 rotates relative to the intermittent flow-through holes 1411 of the throttling disk, when the impeller blade 1311 covers the intermittent flow-through hole 1411 of the throttling disk, the amount of the drilling fluid through the intermittent flow-through hole 1411 of the throttling disk is reduced, when impeller blade 1311 does not cover the intermittent flow-through hole 1411 of the throttling disk, the amount of the drilling fluid through the intermittent flow-through hole 1411 of the throttling disk is increased. Through the above process, the periodical change of the amount of the drilling fluid through the intermittent flow-through hole 1411 of the throttling disk is realized, and then the amount of the drilling fluid passing through is modulated to form the pulsed jet.
(26) Referring to
(27) The WOB adjusting element 3 is disposed between the pulsating impact generating mechanism 1 and the transmission mechanism 4, the transmission mechanism 4 can reciprocate slightly in an axial direction within the reaming bit crown 22 under an action of the WOB adjusting element 3, so that the pilot bit 5 can be driven by the transmission mechanism 4 to reciprocate slightly in an axial direction relative to the reaming bit 2. When the pilot bit 5 breaks the rock and encounters a large resistance, the pilot bit 5 is subjected to an upward resistance, presses the WOB adjusting element 3 to be compressed and generate a larger elastic force, WOB on the pilot bit 5 is increased under an action of the elastic force of the WOB adjusting element 3, when the total WOB is constant, WOB on the reaming bit 2 is reduced, thereby realizing automatic and reasonable distribution of the WOB.
(28) The pulsed jet type weight-on-bit self-adjusting drill bit utilizes a combination of the reaming bit 2 and the pilot bit 5 to perform the drilling so as to change contact manner between the drill bit and rock at a bottom hole to release stratum stress, thereby reducing specific energy for rock breaking; utilizes the WOB adjusting element 3 to realize the automatic and reasonable distribution of the WOB respectively on the reaming bit 2 and the pilot bit 5, utilizes the relative axial movement between the reaming bit 2 and the pilot bit 5 to realize automatic adjustment of the ROPs of the two bits, and thus automatically distributes and adjusts the WOB respectively on the reaming bit 2 and the pilot bit 5 to be optimum and controls the ROPs thereof to be the most reasonable; utilizes the modulation over the amount of the drilling fluid by the pulsating impact generating mechanism 1 to form the pulsed jet at the nozzles of the reaming bit 2 and the pilot bit 5, utilizes periodic axial downward impact generated during the modulation process of the amount of the drilling fluid to apply a periodic impact on the pilot bit 5, reduces the chip hold down effect of the reaming bit 2 and the pilot bit 5 by the pulsed jet while the pilot bit 5 is rotating and drilling, and realizes the automatic and reasonable distribution of the WOB, so as to achieve the purpose of protecting the drill bit and improving the service life and the ROP of the drill bit.
(29) As a preferred embodiment, the pulsating impact generating mechanism 1 is configured to be able to reciprocate axially within the joint 21, the throttling disk 141 is in contact with the WOB adjusting element 3. When the impeller blade 1311 covers the intermittent flow-through hole 1411 of the throttling disk, as the passage through which the drilling fluid flows is blocked, the drilling fluid hydraulic force impels the impeller 131 and the throttling disk 141 to drive the pulsating impact generating mechanism 1 to move axially downward within the joint 21, so as to compress the WOB adjusting element 3 to generate an axially downward impact against the transmission mechanism 4 and the pilot bit 5; when the impeller blade 1311 does not cover the intermittent flow-through hole 1411, the drilling fluid can smoothly pass through the pulsating impact generating mechanism 1 and the axially downward impact disappears.
(30) The above embodiment utilizes the periodic change of the amount of the drilling fluid in the pulsating impact generating mechanism 1 to generate periodical axial downward impact in the modulation process of the drilling fluid, thus further apply the periodical impact on the pilot bit 5, reduce the chip hold down effect of the reaming bit 2 and the pilot bit 5 while the pilot bit 5 is rotating and drilling, and further realize the automatic and reasonable distribution of the WOB respectively on the reaming bit 2 and the pilot bit 5, thereby achieving the purpose of protecting the drill bit and improving the service life and the ROP of the drill bit.
