Engagement and Contact Analysis of Coiled Tubing Injector Head Chain Drive
The coiled tubing injector head is the core component of the coiled tubing oil and gas well operation equipment
which directly determines the coiled tubing operation capability
and its chain drive system pulls the coiled tubing in or out the wellbore. However
the unsteady chain drive and the wear between the chain and sprocket are common problems which are the main factors leading to slipping
pipe sliding and bites of coiled tubing in engineering practice. Based on the standard roller chain and sprocket
the mechanical model of the engagement contact between the injector head chain and the sprocket teeth is established to analyze the influence of chain tension force
chain tension angle and chain pitch on the position of contact points and tooth surface support reaction force
and the accuracy of the contact mechanical model is verified by Ansys simulation which lays a theoretical foundation for the design and safety of the injector. The research shows that when the tension force of the chain increases and the loosening force remains unchanged
the engaging-in position of the chain on the tension side is basically unchanged
the reaction force of the tooth surface support increases
and the engaging-out position of the chain rollers is close to the bottom of the sprocket teeth. However
when the tension force approaches the loosening force
there is a sudden increase in the support reaction force of the engaging-out contact position. The increase of the angle between the tension side and the vertical direction of the chain has little effect on the engaging-in position and the tooth surface support reaction force
the engaging-out position of the chain rollers is close to the bottom of the sprocket teeth. The engaging in and out points of the chain are respectively away from the direction of the bottom of the sprocket teeth and the contact position is improved when the chain is extended.
