Adjust the explosion robot to the initial state, and the initial state is that the rear support cylinder piston is located at the left end of the rear support cylinder, the front support cylinder piston is located at the right end of the front support cylinder, the rear support mechanism and the front support mechanism are both in a contracted state, and the planetary roller is located at the left end of the lead screw and the nut;

Step 2. Inject hydraulic oil into the left chamber of the rear support cylinder to push the rear support cylinder piston to move to the right, so as to drive the rear support mechanism to open and make close contact with the casing to fix the rear half of the entire explosion robot;

Step 3. The drive motor starts to rotate forward, and the drive motor rotates to drive the lead screw to rotate; since the lead screw and the planetary roller are threadedly matched, the lead screw rotates to drive the planetary roller to roll; the nut moves to the right together with the planetary roller under the movement of the planetary roller; at the same time, the front half of the explosion robot connected with the nut also advances to the right with the nut until the planetary roller moves to the rightmost end of the lead screw;

Step 4. Inject hydraulic oil into the right chamber of the front support cylinder, thereby pushing the front support cylinder piston to move to the left; when the front support cylinder piston moves to the left, it drives the front support mechanism to open, and make close contact with the casing to fix the front half of the entire explosion robot;

Step 5. Inject hydraulic oil into the right chamber of the rear support cylinder, the left chamber of the rear support cylinder returns oil, and at the same time the rear support cylinder piston moves to the left to drive the rear support mechanism to contract and reset;

Step 6. After the rear support mechanism is reset, the drive motor starts to reverse, the lead screw rotates and moves to the right, and the lead screw pulls the second half of the entire explosion robot forward until the planetary roller returns to the leftmost end of the lead screw;

Step 7. Inject hydraulic oil into the left chamber of the rear support cylinder, push the rear support cylinder piston to move to the right, thereby driving the rear support mechanism to open and make close contact with the casing to fix the second half of the entire explosion robot:

Step 8. Inject hydraulic oil into the left chamber of the front support cylinder, push the front support cylinder piston to move to the right, thereby driving the front support mechanism to contract and reset, so as to carry out the next action;

The present invention has the following beneficial effects:

1. The explosion robot is designed with a planetary roller mechanism for telescopic traction, which can simplify the structural design: The use of a planetary roller screw mechanism instead of a hydraulic telescoping mechanism reduces the hydraulic valve and other electronic components needed for hydraulic telescoping, thus simplifying the structural design of the body. The oil circuits and the number of holes are reduced, which to some extent increases the stiffness of the explosion robot and brings greater stability.

2. The planetary roller screw mechanism is used in the telescopic sub of the explosion robot to realize the structural design of small size and large traction force of the downhole explosion robot: The planetary roller screw has the advantages of small size, high transmission precision, high mechanical transmission efficiency and low production cost;

3. The telescopic mechanism of the explosion robot is the planetary roller screw for telescoping. The telescopic structure of the planetary roller screw has a reliable and stable motion state, with less impact on the tube string; the planetary roller screw mechanism has good high temperature and high pressure resistance and sealing performance, can operate normally under long-term high temperature and high pressure in horizontal wells, and has a long service life; and it has good self-locking performance, which can maintain a stable state of motion under complex downhole conditions;

4. The robot is applicable to a wide range of wellbores: The small size structure design achieved by the use of planetary roller screw telescoping for the explosion robot can make the overall structure of the robot small, and the robot controls the degree of opening of the front and rear support mechanisms by controlling the stroke of the front and rear support cylinder pistons. In wells with a larger borehole size, the support cylinder piston needs to travel more to push the support mechanism to open wider and make close contact with the casing; in wells with a smaller borehole size, the support cylinder piston needs to travel less to push the support mechanism to open smaller and make close contact with the casing;

5. The robot is applicable to different downhole operation stages: The traction method using planetary roller screw telescoping can be used not only in the explosion robot during the horizontal well explosive fracturing, but also in the drilling robot in the drilling process, and can be applied to all tools that require traction during downhole operations.

State d: After the telescopic sub 5 is extended, the drive motor 504 stops rotating, and the planetary ball screw structure has good self-locking performance and maintains the self-locking state; the electrical signal in the annulus of the rear main body 3 passes through the circuit in the annulus of the lead screw 511 and enters the front control sub 7 via the annulus of the front main body 8; after the front control sub 7 receives the electrical signal, the control circuit controls the solenoid valve in the front control sub built-in groove 702 to start working, and the hydraulic oil in the front control sub built-in groove 702 flows into the hydraulic oil passage 704 in the front main body 8 through the solenoid valve, and the hydraulic oil flows into the right chamber of the front support cylinder 603 through the front oil passage 704, thereby pushing the front support cylinder piston 602 to move to the left; the front support cylinder piston 602 is threadedly connected to the front support rear sliding seat 604, when the front support cylinder piston 602 moves to the left, it drives the front support rear sliding seat 604 to slide to the left, and the front support mechanism is opened and is in close contact with the casing to fix the front half of the entire robot; at this time, the front and rear support mechanisms of the explosion robot are in close contact with the casing to prevent the movement process from being affected by the drifting of the body;

State e: after the front support mechanism is opened and in close contact with the casing to fix the body, the rear support mechanism is reset and contracted, the rear half of the robot is not fixed, and only when the telescopic joint 5 is working, the second half of the robot can be pulled to the operating end; at this time, the control solenoid valve in the control sub 2 works, and the hydraulic oil flows into the hydraulic oil circuit in the annulus of the rear main body 3 through the solenoid valve; at this time, the hydraulic oil enters the right chamber of the rear support cylinder 402, the left chamber returns to oil, and the rear support cylinder piston 403 moves to the left to drive the rear support mechanism to contract and reset.

State f: After the rear support mechanism is reset, the drive motor 504 starts to reverse. Since the front support mechanism is in an open state and is in close contact with the casing, the nut 510 is fixed to the front support rear sliding seat 604, resulting in the nut 510 cannot move to the left when the drive motor 504 reverses. At this time, as the rear support mechanism is not in contact and fixed with the casing, under the reverse drive of the motor, the lead screw 511 rotates and moves horizontally to the right, so that the nut 510 moves to the left relative to the telescopic protective cover 501, thus pulling the rear half of the entire robot forward, at this time, the planetary roller 507 and the nut 510 in the telescopic sub 5 return to the leftmost end of the lead screw 511.

Step 5. Inject hydraulic oil into the right chamber of the rear support cylinder 402, the left chamber of the rear support cylinder 402 returns oil, and at the same time the rear support cylinder piston 403 moves to the left to drive the rear support mechanism to contract and reset:

Step 6. After the rear support mechanism is reset, the drive motor 504 starts to reverse, the lead screw 511 rotates and moves to the right, and the lead screw 511 pulls the second half of the entire explosion robot forward until the planetary roller 507 returns to the leftmost end of the lead screw 511;

Step 7. Inject hydraulic oil into the left chamber of the rear support cylinder 402, push the rear support cylinder piston 403 to move to the right, thereby driving the rear support mechanism to open and make close contact with the casing to fix the second half of the entire explosion robot;
