The present application is a U.S. National Phase Entry of International PCT Application No. PCT/CN2019/079522 having an international filing date of Mar. 25, 2019, which claims priority to Chinese Patent Application No. 201811134211.9 filed on Sep. 27, 2018. The present application claims priority and the benefit of the above-identified applications and the above-identified applications are incorporated by reference herein in their entirety.
The present disclosure relates to, but is not limited to, mechanical equipment technology, in particular to a horizontal-to-vertical drilling module for a deep well.
At present, one type of conventional mechanical borehole wall coring tool uses a hydraulic pump to drive a hydraulic motor which in turn drives a drill bit to drill a core, and another type uses the driving force provided by an electric motor to drive the drill bit to drill a core.
The hydraulic motor and electric motor only provide power for coring operation. To perform the coring operation, a specially designed guide plate is needed to be provided to guide the hydraulic motor or electric motor to carry out the coring operation. The drilling guide plate needs to be developed and designed according to the structure of the hydraulic motor or electric motor, and thus it is difficulty to design and the designed guide plates are substantially different from each other.
The electric motor coring technology uses the electric motor to directly drive the reducer which in turn drives the drill bit to perform coring operation. The rotating pin (equivalent to the moving column in this disclosure) that performs coring action is located on the casing of the reducer body, and the electric motor needs to rotate with it. The produced coring tool needs to have the functions of coring, core breaking, turning, core pushing, etc., which makes its design difficult and has always puzzled those skilled in the art.
The following is a summary of the subject matter described in detail in this disclosure, and this summary is not intended to limit the protection scope of the claims.
This disclosure provides a horizontal-to-vertical drilling module for a deep well comprising: a fixed plate provided with a first guide hole having a turning section, a core breaking section and a moving section positioned between the turning section and the core breaking section; a movable plate movably mounted on one side of the fixed plate and provided with a second guide hole having a turning driving section, a core breaking driving section and a moving driving section positioned between the turning driving section and the core breaking driving section, wherein the projection of the first guide hole on the movable plate intersects with the second guide hole; a coring module positioned at the other side of the fixed plate and provided with a moving column on the side facing the fixed plate, wherein the moving column extends into the second guide hole through the first guide hole; and a moving slider having an open groove, wherein the moving slider is installed in the first guide hole and rotatably connected to the coring module, and the moving column may slide into and out of the open groove; wherein the coring module is movable in the moving section and the core breaking section; wherein the turning driving section is able to drive the moving column to move from the turning section to the moving section and slide into the open groove, and is also able to drive the moving column to slide out of the open groove and move from the moving section into the turning section; wherein the moving driving section is able to drive the coring module and the moving column positioned in the open groove to move together in the moving section and the core breaking section; and wherein the core breaking driving section is able to drive the moving column to press against the inner wall of the open groove in the core breaking section to perform core breaking.

In the horizontal-to-vertical drilling module for a deep well provided by the disclosure, the fixed plate is provided with a first guide hole having a turning section, a core breaking section and a moving section positioned between the turning section and the core breaking section. The movable plate is movably mounted on one side of the fixed plate and is provided with a second guide hole having a turning driving section, a core breaking driving section and a moving driving section positioned between the turning driving section and the core breaking driving section. The projection of the first guide hole on the movable plate intersects with the second guide hole.

The coring module may reciprocate in the moving section, the core breaking section, and the turning section repeatedly to perform coring action.
The moving slider is located at the end of the moving section adjacent to the turning section, and the moving column is located in the open groove. By moving the movable plate in the first direction, the turning driving section drives the moving column to slide out of the open groove and move from the moving section into the turning section, thereby the coring module is turned from a vertical state to a horizontal state. By moving the movable plate in the direction opposite to the first direction, the turning driving section drives the moving column to move from the turning section to the moving section and slide into the open groove, so that the coring module is turned from a horizontal state to a vertical state.
The moving driving section can drive the coring module and the moving column located in the open groove to move together in the moving section and the core breaking section. It can be the case that the moving column and the moving slider move together from the moving section to the core breaking section (the coring module is in a vertical state). It can also be the case that the moving column and the moving slider together move from the core breaking section to the moving section (the coring module is in a vertical state).
The moving slider is located in the core breaking section (the coring module is in a vertical state), the moving column is located in the open groove. The core breaking driving section drives the moving column to press against the inner wall of the open groove in the core breaking section for coring breaking, and the coring module turns about its hinge axis where the coring module is hinged with the moving slider so as to perform core breaking action.
To sum up, the horizontal-to-vertical drilling module for a deep well provided by the present disclosure is simple in structure and can realize the coring, core breaking, turning and core pushing actions, thereby meeting the usage requirement better.
