Definitions

  • the invention relates to a device for guiding a drilling tool and / or a drill rod for producing bores, consisting of an inner tube which can be connected to the drilling tool or the drill rod and an outer tube which is rotatably mounted thereon and provided with guide strips.
  • Devices of this type have the task of stabilizing the drilling tool or the drill string in the borehole and counteracting a deviation of the drilling head from the predefined drilling direction. The undesirable deviations occur during deep drilling, in particular in transition zones between harder and softer layers, in particular if the drilling strikes these layers at an acute angle.
  • target boring bars so-called target boring bars or stabilizers.
  • These are drill pipes with attached guide strips, which correspond to the bore diameter in the outer diameter and follow the advancing drilling tool to guide it concentrically.
  • Such devices are available in various designs, for. B. in rigid Ausry ⁇ tion, the guide strips are rigidly connected to the drill pipe and rotate in the borehole or those of the type mentioned, where the guide rails are arranged on a separate outer tube in which the actual drill pipe is rotatably mounted.
  • vertical bores with target bores with built-in automatic vertical control using the gravitational force and using the pressure of the flushing liquid or the rotation of the drill pipe to generate a control pressure.
  • the known rigid guide devices have the disadvantage that they only insufficiently counteract the deviation of the drilling tool from the drilling direction.
  • One reason for this can be seen in the fact that the diameter of the drilling tool must always be dimensioned somewhat larger than the diameter of the guide device in order to avoid the guide device becoming stuck in the borehole. This is particularly important because the diameter of the borehole can decrease if the drill bit wears out.
  • the knownskysvoriquese ⁇ are therefore drilling not always * firmly to the Bohrlochwa ⁇ d, so that the Bohr ⁇ tool has the ability to dodge.
  • the object of the invention is to provide a guide device of the type mentioned at the outset which enables precise guidance of the drilling tool and the drill string in the bore and in which the risk of jamming in the borehole is avoided.
  • this object is achieved in that the guide strips are arranged so as to be radially movable in slot-like recesses in the outer tube of the device and in that means which can be changed in position or shape are provided between the bottom of the recesses and the underside of the guide strips which the guide strips can be pressed against the bore wall.
  • the guide strips therefore remain in constant contact with the bore wall and in this way ensure sufficient stabilization of the drilling tool and thus also precise compliance with the predefined drilling direction.
  • the means for pressing the guide strips against the wall of the bore preferably consist of prestressed compression springs which are arranged between the underside of the guide strips and the bottom of the recess in the outer tube.
  • compression springs Tellerfeder ⁇ coil springs or leaf springs can be seen '.
  • the guide strips are held in the recesses by screws which engage in threaded bores in the outer tube and whose heads are recessed in stepped bores in the guide strips. With the aid of the screws, the largest possible outer diameter up to which the outer sides of the guide strips can extend can be limited, the compression springs in this position of the guide strips already having a certain pretensioning force.
  • the screws preferably penetrate into the stepped bores, against which the heads of the screws can be tightened. In this way, the screws can be secured against automatic loosening. Furthermore, the maximum outer diameter taken up by the guide strips can be precisely defined by the length of the spacer sleeves.
  • blind holes are preferably arranged on the underside of the guide strips, into which the compression springs engage.
  • the rotatable mounting between the inner tube and the outer tube can consist of two sliding bearings with radially and axially effective sliding surfaces.
  • Such a bearing is characterized by a low radial height and is insensitive to high temperatures.
  • the rotatable bearing between the inner tube and the outer tube can also consist of two tapered roller bearings which are supported on the axial shoulders of the outer tube and are held on the inner tube with locking nuts.
  • the tapered roller bearings allow high radial forces to be absorbed with a small radial installation space and sufficient resilience in the axial direction.
  • the bearing play can be set precisely and manufacturing tolerances can be compensated.
  • the ends of the outer tube are preferably sealed off from the inner tube by means of mechanical seals. A particularly suitable lubricant can therefore be used to lubricate the bearing, which is poured into the annular space between the outer tube and inner tube, which is separated from the mechanical seals.
  • the annular space filled with a lubricant is connected to a pressure compensation device which is exposed to the pressure in the deep bore.
  • the pressure equalization thus achieved between the annular space and its surroundings relieves the mechanical seals, thereby increasing their service life.
  • the pressure compensation device can consist of at least one flexible wall, for example a bellows or a membrane, which is arranged on the wall of the outer tube.
  • the compensating device can also consist of a piston that is axially displaceable and sealed in a longitudinal bore in the inner tube.
  • this is achieved in that the underside of a guide bar or the bottom of a recess is inclined to the longitudinal axis of the device and that a wedge with a correspondingly inclined surface is provided between the guide bar and the bottom of the recess, which is adjusted in the longitudinal direction by an adjusting device is movable.
  • the guide bar can be adjusted in the radial direction to such an extent that the device and the drilling tool connected to the device can be displaced from the center of the borehole in order to correct the drilling direction.
  • the device preferably has
  • the adjusting device preferably has a spindle-nut gear, to which an electrically driven adjusting motor is coupled. Furthermore, a hydraulic generator driven with the aid of the flushing current is provided to generate the drive energy for the servomotor. According to the invention, the generator is preferably driven by a purging turbine which is arranged in the purging channel running through the inner tube.
  • the inventive adjustment of the guide rails with the aid of wedges and electrically driven actuating devices has the advantage that the actuating forces that can be achieved are largely independent of the flushing pressure and that the executives that can be supported on the guide rails are one Many times the actuating forces that can be generated can be achieved, since the guide strips are supported directly on the outer tube via the wedges. Since the drive energy for moving the actuating devices is generated with the aid of the flushing flow, the device according to the invention can also be used to align the drill bit when the drill string is not rotating.
  • the actuating devices can be controlled from above ground with the aid of telemetric devices.
  • automatic control of the device can also be provided such that a measuring device for detecting the drilling direction and a control device connected to the measuring device are provided in a recess in the wall of the outer tube, which process the measurement results and the adjusting devices for Controls compliance with a predetermined Bohrrichtu ⁇ g.
