This application claims the benefit of priority from Chinese Patent Application No. 202011504447.4, filed on Dec. 18, 2020. The content of the aforementioned application, including any intervening amendments thereto, is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety.
This application relates to geological exploration, and more particularly to a horizontal drilling machine with an in-situ detection device.
With the rapid development of the trenchless technology in China, the horizontal drilling machine has become a commonly-used and powerful tool for the engineering geological exploration, and also plays an important role in the geological exploration and underground engineering. The horizontal drilling machine is a tool which is driven by a power device to explore underground resources and the underground engineering geology within a certain curvature radius, and has the characteristics of fast drilling speed, high efficiency, and large crossing length and drilling depth.
The existing detecting process is generally performed through the following steps. (1) The formation to be detected is drilled by a drilling equipment. (2) An in-situ detection device is arranged on a drill rod, and the drill rod is extended into the hole bottom for detection. (3) The drill rod is retracted after the detection. (4) The detection device is detached from the drilling rod, and the detection data is read. The existing detection devices can satisfy the needs of short-distance and short-time auxiliary operations, but they still suffer the following limitations. (1) A complete detection process, including delivery, salvaging and disassembling of the detection device, and the detection data reading, is extremely time-consuming. (2) The in-situ detection device may fall off during the retraction of the drill rod. With the increase of the exploration depth, especially when the exploration depth reaches hundreds or thousands of meters, the detection operation will take a lot of time, and the detection depth and the detection timeliness will be seriously restricted by the data reading manner.
An object of this application is to provide a horizontal drilling machine with an in-situ detection device to overcome the defects in the prior art, where the horizontal drilling machine has a simple and compact structure and convenient operations, and can greatly increase the exploration depth.

Compared with the prior art, this disclosure has the following beneficial effects.
In the horizontal drilling machine provided herein, the lowering and retrieving of the in-situ detection device are performed by means of pressure of the fluid medium and the pushing of the armored cable, and at the same time, two sets of metal rings (each set consists of a metal ring I and a metal ring II) for the signal transmission are arranged on the fishing device and the spearhead of the in-situ detection device which are connected by an armored cable An non-core drilling tool is provided for the drilling on a hard strata. Specifically, the armored cable passes through the sealing joint to be connected to the fishing device, and the fishing device is provided with two parallel metal rings I used for the signal transmission. For a soft stratum, after the in-situ detection device connected to the fishing device is released in place, the thrust cylinder pushes the active drill pipe connected to the power head to move downward, and thus the in-situ detection device is driven to penetrate the stratum to collect in-situ detection data such as the conical tip resistance, the side friction and the pore water pressure on the penetration path. Subsequently, the data signal is transmitted to the data collection device through the armored cable, meanwhile, the real-time analysis can be carried out through the computer. For a hard stratum, the in-situ detection device is fished and retrieved to the drilling hole via the fishing device, and the non-core drilling tool is connected to the fishing device. When the non-core drilling tool is released in place, the power head is pushed by the thrust cylinder drives to perform rotary drilling, thereby realizing the non-core drilling of the stratum. In this way, the delivery and recovery of the in-situ detection device and the non-core drilling tool between the alternating soft and hard formations can be realized, and thus improving the exploration depth. The horizontal drilling machine provided herein has a simple and compact structure and convenient operations.
