A kind of downhole tool that is used for seals righting thrust bearing system
Technical field
The present invention relates to technical field of bearings is and in particular to a kind of seal righting thrust bearing system for downhole tool.
Background technology
In petroleum geology drilling operation, downhole tool can provide various power, including rotation and axial power.Thus it is real
The purpose of existing broken rock.Therefore, downhole tool can bear axially and radially load, and under most wells, tool work is all adopted simultaneously
With fluid drives, Fluid pressure will certainly be produced and act on formation load on instrument.For ensureing the normal work of instrument and having
Enough working lives, above-mentioned various load are all undertaken by bearing arrangement.So, downhole tool bearing arrangement is very important
Part.
At present, the bearing arrangement of downhole tool is to separately design mode using axially and radially bearing, and great majority are adopted
Use Open architecture.Even if sealing is also using housing and axle integrated sealing structure (as cn104278948).For processing and
Safeguard and all bring certain inconvenience.
Existing structure mainly bears axial load using thrust bearing (angular contact string bearing);Using rubber and tc sliding axle
Hold and radial direction righting is realized by gap cooperation.Bearing internal external circle is pressed on mandrel and housing using spacer etc. respectively by screw thread
On.Fluid media (medium) is realized a certain degree of lubrication by rational design gap and is cooled down.
Content of the invention
The technical problem to be solved in the present invention is, in view of the foregoing defects the prior art has, there is provided a kind of be used for well
Lower instrument seals righting thrust bearing system, can bear axially and radially load realize centralizing function, be particularly suitable for well
Lower load situation complicated and changeable, bears the load of multiple directions, and this bearing arrangement is relatively independent so that application combination is more many
Sample, the assembling of bearing arrangement is convenient with maintenance.
The present invention be the technical scheme is that by solving above-mentioned technical problem
A kind of downhole tool that is used for seals righting thrust bearing system, and including housing and axle sleeve, housing is cylindrical shape, axle sleeve

Hold and journal bearing axial compression is between housing and axle sleeve.
Connect technique scheme, housing outer surface is evenly distributed with vertical groove.
The method have the advantages that
1st, the bearing group being combined into by thrust bearing and journal bearing, undertake axially and radially load and realize righting make
With, it is to avoid there is axially and radially load that bearing is influenced each other, prevent that thrust bearing from bearing radial load and journal bearing bears
Axial load, the setting sealing of bearing group two ends improves the service life of bearing arrangement, is particularly suitable for underground work, and down-hole is made
In industry, stress load is complicated and changeable, and this bearing arrangement can be good at overcoming this point, bears the load of multiple directions, this bearing
System is relatively independent so that application combination is more diversified, and the assembling of bearing arrangement is convenient with maintenance.
2nd, form injection profit in a seal cavity, seal cavity between the piston of housing upper and lower ends and housing and axle sleeve
Lubricating oil or oils and fatss, when external pressure is excessive, piston moves into seal cavity, and seal cavity is compressed, and makes seal cavity intrinsic pressure
Power increases until piston pressure at both sides reaches balance, and when external pressure is too small, piston moves to outside seal cavity, seal cavity
Increase, so that pressure in seal cavity is reduced until piston pressure at both sides reaches balance, piston type sealing can be realized sealing intracavity
Outer pressure balance, improves the reliability of sealing, realizes dynamic sealing, especially external pressure is changeable in subsurface environment, lives
The pressure balance that plug sealing can effectively make inside and outside seal cavity, with ensure seal pressure differential in rational scope it is ensured that sealing
Reliability.
