Abstract
The invention relates to a joint for steel pipe, which is oil-tight at high pressure, being of the type including at least one pair of slightly conical sealing surfaces arranged at at least one end of the male member or of the female member, and is insensitive to seizure. This joint is characterized by the fact that the first contact 5 of the sealing zone lying at the end of one member occurs against the corresponding sealing surface of the other member and that at the time of this first contact the taper of the sealing surface which is situated at the end of one of the members of the joint is less than the taper of the corresponding sealing surface which is situated on the other member of the joint, the sealing surfaces at the time of tightening the joint, becoming applied against one another with a contact pressure sufficient to ensure oiltightness. <IMAGE>
Description
The present Invention relates to a new joint for steel pipes and 1n particular for pipes Intended for the oil Industry. The Invention refers store especially to joints In which olltlghtness 1s ensured by pairs of sealing surfaces of slightly conical shape which cone Into contact with one another upon tightening up the joint.
In this known type of jolntthere Is employed on the male Maher a sealing surface the dlaMter of which Is slightly greater than the corresponding dlaMter of the sealing surface on the female meafcer, so that at the tlM of tightening up the joint high contact pressures are exerted between the two sealing surfaces, these being pressures which oust be sufficient to ensure olltlghtness under the highest pressure which the assembly of pipes must withstand.
Known joints of this type may Include only one pair of sealing surfaces, situated either at the end of the male merter or at the end of the female member. They may equally well Include two pairs of sealing surfaces arranged on opposite sides of the threads which are respectively on the end of the male member and on the end of the female member.
Furthermore the conditions of exploitation of oil fields are at present sueh that one 1s led to collect the petroleua at greater and greater depths, which Mkes It essential to achieve joints which remain olltlght at working pressures which may exceed 1,000 kg/cm . -25' 4 ο ο Again 1t my likewise happen that one Is led to exploit oil fields at great depth, which contain high contents of corrosive agents such as sulpheretted hydrogen or carbon dioxide, and that one 1s obliged to employ stainless steels containing chromium nickel as well as other additive elements. These two requirements which are met more and more often simultaneously cause the joints which are known at present, not to give satisfaction. That Is, the stainless steels the employment of which Is necessary 1n order to be able to withstand corrosive agents have a natural tendency to seizure which becomes considerably Increased by the necessity of· employing high contact pressures at the level of the metal sealing surfaces.
This Is the reason why the only joints known today which enable this problem to be solved, Include very steeply Inclined sealing surfaces ( of the order of 30°) with respect to the axis of the pipe, a stop for restricting screwing up Immediately becoming opposed to further screwing as soon as contact has been obtained at the level of the sealing surfaces. It will be understood that this type of joint 1s difficult to put Into use and to machine, because the stop for restricting screwing up must be positioned extremely precisely with respect to the steeply conical sealing surfaces.
The present Invention relates to a metal-to-metal oiltight joint which Includes slightly conical sealing surfaces and which Is olltlght at high pressures without there being any risk of giving rise to seizure phenomena even when these joints are produced from steel or from steel which 1s stainless or heavily loaded with chromium, with nickel and with other additive elements. -3According to the present Invention 1s a joint for pipes, especially of steel alloy, which 1s olltlght at high pressure, being the type Including at least one pair of slightly conical sealing surfaces arranged at at least one end of the Mie member or of the feMle aenber, In which pair the first contact of the sealing zone lying at the end of one aeaber occurs against the corresponding sealing surface of the other member, 1n which at the time of this first contact the taperof the sealing surface which 1s situated at the end of one of the rnembeis of the joint 1s less than the taper of the corresponding sealing surface which 1s situated on the other aeaber of the joint, the generatrices of said pair of conical sealing surfaces having an angular difference which corresponds with a slope of 0.5 to 2Ϊ, the sealing surfaces at the tlae of tightening the joint, becoalng applied as a whole against one another with a contact pressure sufficient to ensure olltlghtness, the said joint being Insensitive to seizure.
Tests which have been Mde by the Applicant Company have revealed that for a reason which 1t has been been possible to determine with certainly, the joints which exhibit the characteristics which have just been defined above, may be screwed up to apply the sealing surfaces against one another with very high pressures without harmful seizure occurring and with satisfactory olltlghtness and with preservation of the good quality of these surfaces, this being even when the members of the joint are produced from steel or alloy heavily loaded with chromium, nickel and other adddltlve elements and consequently having a particular propensity to seizure. -45 4 Ο 7 6 Preferably the angular difference between the generatrices of the two sealing surfaces 1s the greater, the lower the ratio of thickness to dlaaeter of the pipes.
In accordance with the Invention the joint advantageously 5 includes a stop for restricting screwlpg-up so that excessive tightening does not engage the wale aeaber too deeply 1n the feaale aeaber, so exceeding uselessly the necessary contact pressures between the sealing surfaces and risking 1apa1r1ng thea.
The present Invention aay be eaployed on joints having taper 10 threads or cylindrical threads. It aay likewise be eaployed on joints which include only one pair of sealing surfaces or on those which include two pairs of sealing surfaces arranged one at the end of the aale aeaber and the other at the end of the feaale aeaber on opposite sides of the threads.
With the ala of letting the Invention be better understood, there will now be described by way of Illustration and without any restrictive character, a number of eabodlaents given by way of exaaple and represented 1n the drawings 1n which: Figure 1 1s a dlagraaaatlc section showing how the first contact of the sealing zone lying at the end of one of the members aust occur againtt the conical sealing surface on the other aeaber; Figure 2 corresponds with Figure 1 but In the case in which the first contact does not occur in accordance with the Invention: Figures 3 and 4 represent dlagranaatlcally the differences In disaster which the pairs of sealing surfaces aust -55 4 0 7 6 exhibit In order that the first contact shall occur 1n accordance with the Invention; Figures 5 and 6 represent diagrammatically a joint 1n accordance with the Invention in which the sealing surfaces are situated at the end of the female member; Figures 7 and 8 represent dlagramtically a joint 1n accordance with the invention in which the sealing surfaces are situated at the end of the male member; Figures 9 and 10 represent diagrammatically a joint having a 10 double cylindrical thread and 1n accordance with the Invention, 1n which the sealing surfaces are situated at the end of the male member; Figures 11 and 12 represent a joint 1n accordance with the Invention equipped with a frustoconical thread and two pairs of sealing surfaces situated at the end of the female member; Figures 13, 14 and 15 represent a joint In accordance with the invention equipped with a frustoconical thread and Including a first pair of sealing surfaces at the end of the female member and a second pair of sealing surfaces 1n the vicinity of the end of the male member.
In Figure 1 there 1s shown diagrammatically how the first 20 contact must occur between two sealing surfaces of a joint In accordance with the invention.
In the embodiment shown in Figure 1 the sealing is effected at the end of the male member. In this Figure are found the male member 1, the female member 2, the frustoconical sealing surface 3 of the Bale member 1 and the frustoconical sealing surface 4 of the female member 2. In accordance with the Invention the first contact between -65 4 0 7 6 the sealing zone at the end of the male member and the sealing furface on the female member must take place on the frustocontcal surface 4 of the female member 2 as 1s seen shorn at 5 1n Figure 1.
In Figure 2 1s shown the way In which on the contrary the first contact occurs between the end of the male member and the female member In a manner which Is not In accordance with the Invention. In this case the point of first contact 5 Is not situated on the frustoconlcal sealing surface 4 of the feamle member but on the zone which connects this frustoconlcal surface with the thread.
In Figure 3 the portions are shown again which concern the sealing of the joint as Figure 1. The point 6 has likewise been plotted which 1s the end of the theoretical line of the generatrix of the conical surface 3 of the male member 1 as well as the point 7 which is the theoretical end of the generatrix of the frustum of the cone of the sealing surface 4 of the female member 2.
In order that the condition 1n accordance with the Invention represented in Figure 1 shall be achieved 1t 1s sufficient that the diameter M of the male member at the point 6 1s slightly less than the diameter 02 of the female member at the point 7.
It will be understood that under these conditions the first contact of the male member occurs against the frustoconlcal sealing surface 4 of the female member.
In Figure 4 the case shown In which the sealing 1n accordance with the Invention occurs at the end of the female member 8, the male member being shown diagrammatically at 9.
The end point of the theoretical line of the generatrix °f the frustoconlcal sealing surface 10 of the female member 1s shown -75 4 0 7 6 at 12 whereas the corresponding point of the theoretical line of the generatrix of the frustoconical surface 11 of the Mie member 1s shown at 13. In order that the condition 1n accordance with the Invention shall be achieved 1t is sufficient that the diameter DH corresponding with the point 13 shall be slightly less than the dlamter D'2 corresponding with the point 12.
It goes without spying that both 1n the case of Figure 3 and In that of Figure 4 the difference existing between the 'diameters Dl, D2 and DH, D'2 mist be sufficiently smII to enable a force fit of the two sealing surfaces Into one another 1n order to obtain the contact pressure necessary to the olltlghtness which 1t is desired to Impart to them.
In Figure 5 a joint 1n accordance with the Invention 1s shown, in which the sealing surfaces are situated on the outside of the pipe at the end of the female member 8. The thread 14 1s shown dlagramaetlcally, which enables the assembly of the two tubular members as well as the stop 15 created Inside the female member, against which the end of the Mie member comes to bear 1n order to avoid excessive screwing up of the joint.
Figure 6 repeats on a larger scale the portion VI from Figure . It represents the joint at the Instant at which the end of the feMle member 8 comes Into contact at 5 with the frustoconical sealing surface 11 of the Mie member 9 In accordance with one of the characteristics of the Invention.
In Figure 6 there are shown at Al^ and A2 the angles which the generatrices of the frustoconical sealing surfaces 11 of the Mie member 9 and 10 of the feMle member 8, Mke with respect to the axis of the pipe. -85 4 0 7 6 In accordance with the Invention the slope te of the sealing surface 10 which lies at the end of the female member 8 1s less than the slope of the sealing surface 11 on the male member 9 which Is separated from the end of the male member by the whole length of the threads 14. That Is shown 1n Figure 6 by the fact that the angle Al. Is greater than the angle te, which at the time at which first contact occurs at 5, leaves between the two sealing surfaces 10 and 11 an angle B equal to Αχ - te.
It 1s clear that when screwing up 1s continued so that the end of the male member 9 comes Into contact with the stop 15, this angular difference B tends progressively towards zero, the sealing surface 10 of the female member becoming completely applied against the sealing surface 11 of the male member.
In Figure 7 an embodiment of the Invention 1s shown 1n which the sealing occurs Inside the joint at the end of the male member 1 which at the end of tightening up comes to bear against the stop 15 for restriction of screwing up, which Is situated on the female member 2.
As may be seen In Figure 8 which represents on a larger scale the portion VIII from Figure 7, the first contact of the male member occurs at 5 against the frustoconical sealing surface 4 of the female member 2.
As has been shown on the drawing and In accordance with the Invention the angle Al. which the generatrix of the sealing surface 3 which Is at the end of the male menber 1, makes with the axis of the pipe, Is less than the angle te which the generatrix of the surface 4 of the female member, makes with the axis of the pipe, -95 4 0 7 6 the difference A2 - Al. being represented by the angle jl .
In this case likewise, of course, when the joint has been tightened up and the end of the male member 1 has come to bear against the stop for restriction of screwing up 15, the surfaces 3 and 4 are applied against one another along their whole length with the contact pressure which 1s sufficient to ensure olltlghtness even at high pressures.
In Figure 9 1s shown, half 1n axial section, a joint 1n accordance with the Invention in the state screwed home, which Includes a g cylindrical thread 14 having two stages, a stop for restriction of screwing up 15 arranged at the end of the male member 1 and a sealing zone arranged at the end of the male member and consisting of the sealing surface 3 on the male member 1 and the sealing surface 4 on the female member 2.
In Figure 10 on a larger scale the portions of the male members 1 and 2 are shown, which surround the sealing zone.
As Indicated 1n Figure 10 and In accordance with the Invention the slope of the surface 3 of the male member Is less than the slope of the surface 4 of the' female «ember .2. 2o In the embodiment shown and with a pipe of which the outer diameter 1s 180 millimetres and the thickness 9 millimetres, produced from a steel having a chromium content higher than 20X the slope of the sealing surface 3 on the male member, represented by the angle Al_ 1s equal to 4.25X whereas the slope of the surface 4 of the female member represented by the angle A2 1s equal to 5t which 1n -105 4 0 7 6 accordance with the Inventloncorresponds before tightening up, to a difference of angular slope 0.75X.
In Figure 11 a particular embodiment of the Invention 1s shown, which Includes a joint having a frustoconical thread with sealing surfaces arranged at the end of the female member, which likewise includes a stop 15 for restriction of screwing up, against which the end of the female member 8 comes to bear.
As may be seen In Figure 12, the slope of the sealing surface 10 on the female member 8, which 1s represented by the angle A2 1$ equal to 24X, whereas the slope of the sealing surface 11 on the male member 9 Is represented by the angle Αχ which 1s equal to 25X.
In accordance with the Invention the slope of the surface 10 which Is at the end of the female member 8 1s less by IX than the slope of the sealing surface 11 on the male member.
Finally 1n Figure 13 an embodiment is shown, of a joint in accordance with the Invention which Include two sealing zones arranged respectively at the end of the male member 1 and at the end of the female member 2.
In Figures 14 and 15 these two sealing zones are shown on a larger scale.
In Figure 14 may be seen the slopes A'X and K'2 of the sealing surfaces 11 and 10 and 1n Figure 15 the slopes AM and AM of the sealing surfaces 3 and 4. In accordance with the Invention AM corresponds with a slope of 25X (or 14 degrees), A'2 corresponds with a slope of 24X (or 13.5 degrees) and Α**χ corresponds with a slope of 5.25X (or 3 degrees) and AM corresponds with a slope of 6X (or 3.5 degrees). -11a 4 ϋ 7 6 It will be observed that the difference 1n angular slope 1s equal to lt In the case of Figure 14 and that 1n the case of Figure 15 1t Is equal to 0.75Ϊ.
In both cases 1n accordance with the Invention 1t 1s the 5 sealing surfaces which are situated at the end of a member (10 1n Figure 14 and 3 In Figure 15) which have the smaller tapers.
It 1s quite clear that the embodiments which have been described above are Indicated only by way of example and that they might be modified without thereby departing from the scope of the Invention.
In particular the Invention nay be applied to any pipe and Is not restricted to certain grades of steel.
