Definitions
- the present invention relates to a threaded joint for steel pipes.
- oil wells and natural gas wells steel pipes sequentially connected by threaded joints are used as oil well pipes such as casings or tubing.
- a joint having only a taper screw as defined in the American Petroleum Institute standard is applied.
- This threaded joint is composed of a first pipe member having a male screw portion of a taper screw and a second pipe member having a female screw portion of a taper screw.
- the first pipe material is a steel pipe
- the second pipe material is a coupling (short pipe).
- male screw portions are formed at both ends of the steel pipe
- female screw portions are formed at both ends of the coupling. That is, in the coupling method, adjacent steel pipes are connected via the coupling.
- both the first pipe material and the second pipe material are steel pipes, and no coupling is used.
- a male thread part is formed in one end part of a steel pipe, and a female thread part is formed in the other end part. That is, in the integral system, adjacent steel pipes are directly connected without using a coupling.
- the joint portion of the first pipe member in which the male screw portion is formed is referred to as a pin because it includes an element inserted into the female screw portion.
- the joint portion of the second pipe member in which the female screw portion is formed includes an element that receives the male screw portion, and is therefore referred to as a box.
- the joint part containing a male thread part is also called a pin

- an API-standard threaded joint that does not have a seal surface (unthreaded surface)
- the male threaded portion and the female threaded portion are fitted and brought into close contact with each other, thereby ensuring the sealing performance and pressure resistance of the threaded joint.
- the outer diameter of the pin is set slightly larger than the inner diameter of the box (this difference in diameter is referred to as “seal interference amount”).
- the pin and the box are fitted and caused to interfere with each other in the radial direction, whereby an elastic recovery force is generated between the enlarged box and the reduced diameter pin to return to the original diameter. This elastic recovery force brings the sealing surface into close contact.
- Thread joints as disclosed in Patent Documents 1 to 3 have been proposed for the purpose of improving sealing performance and pressure resistance.
- a seal portion is provided at a position away from the tip of the nose, and the nose portion is extended from the seal portion to the shoulder portion (butting surface), thereby providing a sealing property and pressure resistance. It is improving.
- the abutting surfaces of the pin and the box come into contact with each other as the pin is screwed in, and serve as a stopper that restricts the screwing of the pin, and load on the male screw part in the direction opposite to the screwing advance direction, It plays the role of giving the so-called screw tightening axial force.

[鋼管用ねじ継手の構成例]
まず、本発明の第1実施形態に係る鋼管用ねじ継手1(以下、単に「ねじ継手」とも称する)について説明する。図1A~図1Cは、本第1実施形態に係る鋼管用ねじ継手1を示す縦断面図である。なお、図1Aは、ピン20をボックス30へねじ込む前の状態(ピン20とボックス30の締結前の状態)を示す図であり、図1Bは、ピン20のねじ込み初期の状態(ピン20とボックス30の締結初期の状態)を示す図であり、図1Cは、ピン20のねじ込みが完了した状態(ピン20とボックス30の締結完了時の状態)を示す図である。ピン20とボックス30の締結については、後述する。
なお、図1Aにおいて、下側がピン20における先端側(前端側)であり、上側がボックス30における先端側(前端側)である。また、ピン20およびボックス30の先端側と反対の側を、基端側(後端側)と称する。以後、本明細書における全ての図において同様である。
L=L0+Ax ・・・(式1)
ここで、L0及びAは定数であり、xは管軸方向に沿った位置であり、幅Lは管軸方向に平行に測定される。
次に、締付けトルクのハンピングが発生する原因について説明する。図9A及び図9Bは、ハンピングが発生する鋼管用ねじ継手50を示す拡大図である。なお、図9Aはピン20の先端側を示しており、図9Bはピン20の基端側を示している。
(i)ピン20の第1テーパ面22aにおける前端22cの直径D1が、ボックス30の第3テーパ面32aにおける前端32bの直径D3よりも大きい(図9A参照)。すなわち、第1テーパ面22aの最小直径D1が、第3テーパ面32aの最大直径D3よりも大きい。
(ii)ピン20の第2テーパ面23aにおける前端23bの直径D2が、ボックス30の第4テーパ面33aにおける前端33cの直径D4よりも大きい(図9B参照)。すなわち、第2テーパ面23aの最小直径D2が、ボックス30の第4テーパ面33aの最大直径D4よりも大きい。
また、ボックス30の厚さが小さいほど、締め付けトルクのハンピングが発生しやすい。例えば、締結開始前の状態において、下部管材3のボックス30の外径が、上部管材2の本体部分(上部管材2においてピン20を除く部分)の外径に対して、100%超、104%未満である場合、締め付けトルクのハンピングが発生しやすい。したがって、下部管材3のボックス30の外径が、上部管材2の本体部分の外径に対して、100%超、104%未満である場合には、ねじ継手1によるハンピング抑制効果が大きくなる。
一方、締結前の状態におけるピン20の直径D1、D2と、締結前の状態におけるボックス30の直径D3、D4との差を必要以上に大きく設定すると、シール部のテーパ面を長くする必要が生じ、無駄の多い設計となって製造コストが増大してしまう。
次に、本発明の第2実施形態に係る鋼管用ねじ継手100について説明する。なお、上述した構成要素と同一の構成要素については、同一の符号を付すことにより以下での説明を省略する。
