TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present invention relates to equipment for extracting and increasing the production of crude oil and gas and, more specifically, to equipment for extracting and increasing the production of crude oil and gas, which is capable of increasing the production of crude oil and gas without using additional power when crude oil and gas buried underground are extracted through a sucker rod.
BACKGROUND ART
[0002] The raw crude oil is a natural hydrocarbon mixture, being extracted from the oil layer from underground.
[0003] Through the fractional distillation process, this raw crude oil is separated into a few different fractions such as gasoline, kerosene, diesel oil, heavy fuel oil, etc. Each of these separated types of the oil is being very useful for many everyday needs in our lives.
[0004] This crude oil is deposited below the Earth's surface and the gas layer is in most cases located in the upper part of the oil layer as being formed by the gas generated from the crude oil.
[0005] For this reason, gas is usually expected to be extracted at the same time with the crude oil, and the sucker rod is used to pump this crude oil and gas.
[0006] By the sucker rod pumping unit, with the cylinder and piston rod, it is possibly utilized to lift the deposited crude oil and gas to the Earth's surface from underground by the piston making the repeated up and down strokes traveling inside of the cylinder.
[0007] The sucker rod pumping is a safe and conventional method to artificially lift out the crude oil. The world's most recognizable set of the system in this process is the sucker rod pumping system, especially the horse head and the walking beam for both underground and the Earth's surface.
[0008] Other than the gasoline and diesel engine, the components in the system used on the ground level are usually the prime mover to produce the rotation power, the gear reducer to get the needed speed and torque, the mechanical links like the walking beam to change movements from the rotation type to the piston type, the polished rod to connect the walking beam to the sucker rod string, and the pumping tee to off the process of packing the oil inside of the well and to remove the oil to the flow line for the storing process and also the following processes.
[0009] On the other hand, the down hole tools for underground includes the casing of the oil well, the tubing placed inside of the casing and used for extracting the oil, the rod string, built at the center of the tubing, with the sections of the sucker rod, for mechanical links needed between the down hole pump and polished rod, the moving ball valve, the pump plunger directly connected to the rod string for installing the liquid in the tubing, the stationed cylinder of the pump below the Earth's surface level, and the pump barrel with the stationed ball valve sucking the liquid into the barrel while the up strokes are being performed.
[0010] However, often this type of the sucker rods was considered as problematic in terms of the inefficiency in power consumption as it keeps a particular power level and amount throughout the entire mining processes being performed.

[0035] In the following, the discussions will be detailed on the expected performance examples with the enclosed figures for reference in order to have the invention implemented by any individuals with the common knowledge in the indicated field of science and technologies.
[0036] In the following detailed discussions, the applications will be seen in coherence, fairly for the specified technological elements of this productivity increasing equipment with the invention for mining the crude oil and gas deposited underground using the sucker rod for example.
[0037] FIG. 1 is an illustration, a performance example of the productivity increasing equipment with the invention for extracting the crude oil and gas process.
[0038] FIG. 2 is an illustration, a model of the productivity increasing equipment with the invention for extracting the crude oil and gas process.
[0039] As FIG. 1 and FIG. 2, the sucker rod 1 is used to extract the objects 10, the crude oil and gas.
[0040] Among the mining objects 10, the crude oil is deposited below the Earth's surface and the gas is formed underground at the top of the crude oil.
[0041] The sucker rod 1 includes a main cylinder 30 exposed to the outside from below the Earth's surface 3, and a main piston axial 50 making the repeated up and down movements inside the main cylinder 30 in order to create the pressure to lift the extracting objects 10 to the ground level.
[0042] In addition, the sucker rod 1 includes a crankshaft 40 delivering the rotation movements made by the power of a motor system 20, a walking beam 60 connected to the crankshaft 40, and a king post 70 holding the walking beam 60.
[0043] Further, the sucker rod 1 includes a saddle bearing 80 making the walking beam 60 possibly be at the top of the king post 70 and perform the seesaw movements on the king post 70, and a horse head 90 making the main piston axial 50 possibly be connected to the walking beam 60 and perform the up and down movements.
[0044] Furthermore, the sucker rod 1 helps the mining objects 10, sucked into the top from below of the Earth's surface 3 with the sucking force, created from the up stroke movements of the main piston axial 50 inside of the main cylinder 30, and for this work a main sucking tube 32 is connected to the main cylinder 30.
[0045] Also, the mining objects 10 will be forced into a storage 9 located in the ground level by the pressures created from the down stroke movements of the main piston axial 50 inside of the main cylinder 30, and for this work a main airflow tube 34 is connected to the main cylinder 30.
[0046] The productivity increasing equipment with the invention for extracting the crude oil and gas process is to increase productivity with the additional amount of the objects, expected to be produced in using the power system of the sucker rod connected to the main piston axial 50.
[0047] For this work, a connector unit 100 is formed at the main piston axial 50.
[0048] A piston unit 200 is installed as being connected to the connector unit 100 and making the movements with the main piston axial 50 in cooperation, to be able to extract the objects 10.
[0049] Moreover, a cylinder unit 300 is installed to create the pressure to lift the extracting objects 10 with the up and down movements of the piston unit 200.
[0050] In addition, in the cylinder unit 300, a supply unit 400 is included to support the delivery process of the extracting objects 10 into the storage 9 when they lifted to above ground forced by the piston unit 200 making the up and down movements.
[0051] The connector unit 100 is being performed to have the piston unit 200 making the movement while the main piston axial 50 is making the repeated up and down movements as being connected to the piston unit 200 in one side and to the main piston axial 50 in the other side.
[0052] In addition, the piston unit 200 performs to create the pressures to force the extracting objects 10 to the storage 9 after they are lifted from the up and down movements of the main piston axial 50 inside of the cylinder unit 300.
[0053] Further, the supply unit 400 is installed in a pipeline shape, being connected to the cylinder unit 300, the main sucking tube 32 of the main cylinder 30, and the main airflow tube 34 and it is expected to perform to force the objects through the main airflow tube 34 after they are additionally lifted to the ground level from underground with the pressures created by the movement of the piston unit 200 inside of the cylinder unit 300.
[0054] Taking a close look at FIG. 2, the connector unit 100 includes a clamp 100 installed at the top of the main piston axial 50, and a moving pipe 120, in a belt shape, making the movements following the surface of the piston axial 210 when the main piston axial 50 is making the movements.
[0055] In addition, the connector unit 100 connects between the moving pipe 120 and the clamp 110 and includes a connector section 130 to have the moving pipe 120 making the movements around the surface of the piston 220 when the main piston axial 50 is making the up and down movements.
[0056] The clamp 110 could possibly be made of many different materials in many different shapes expecting to get the solidity in the attachment to the main piston axial 50. An ideal way of putting them together is that the top of the main piston axial 50 is covered by a board shaped metal and then bolts and nuts are installed to possibly strengthen the attachment.
[0057] One end of the connector section 130 is attached to the clamp 100 and the other end of the connector section is attached to moving pipe 120.
[0058] The moving pipe 120 moves around the surface of the piston axial 210 as the clamp 110 makes the up and down movements in cooperation with the movements of the main piston axial 50.
[0059] At this step, the moving pipe 120 is separated from the piston axial 210 and making the up and down movements following the surface generating the pressures onto top and bottom stoppers 230 and 240 have the piston axial 210 making the up and down strokes.
[0060] More detailed discussions will be developed on the movements and the relations between the top and bottom stoppers 230 and 240 installed onto the moving pipe 120 and the piston axial 210.
[0061] On the other hand, the piston unit 200 includes the piston axial 210, making the up and down movements from inside to outside, separated from the main piston axial 50 but connected to the connector unit 100 inside of the cylinder unit 300.
[0062] In addition, the piston unit 200 includes a piston 220, in a rounded board shape, making the up and down movements inside of the cylinder unit 300 at the very bottom of the piston axial 210.
[0063] The piston unit 200 includes the top and bottom stopper 230 and 240, assisting the up and down movements of the piston axial 210 inside of the cylinder unit 300, being forced by the pressures of the connector unit, at both the top and bottom of the piston axial 210.
[0064] Especially, the piston 220 includes a packing 250, attached to inner part of the cylinder unit 300 in covering the surface of the piston 220.
[0065] The piston axial 210, the piston 220, and the top and bottom stoppers 230 and 240 are expected to be made of the FRP (fiber reinforced plastics), lighter than metal materials, and easy to be installed and removed since the high formability and corrosion resistance level.
[0066] In addition, the moving pipe 120 moves up and down without being impeded by any elements around during the movements, as being separated from the surface of the piston axial 210 between the upper and bottom stoppers 230 and 240 as the main piston axial 50 is making the movements.
[0067] Accordingly, the piston axial 210 is only possible to make the up stroke when the moving pipe 120 is attached to the top stopper 230, or to make the down/up stroke when it is attached to the bottom stopper 240.
[0068] In addition, the distance between the top and bottom stoppers 230 and 240, in the piston unit 200, could be different in terms of the types of the installations of the individual users in different needs.
[0069] Furthermore, the cylinder unit 300 performs to create the needed pressures to lift the extracting objects 10 to above ground level as the piston unit 200 makes the up and down movements inside of the piston unit 200.
[0070] The cylinder unit 300 is installed above the Earth's surface, and create the pressures to suck the extracting objects 10 to the ground level, and helping the piston 220 making the movements, in cooperation with the piston axial 210, through the connector unit 100 as the main piston axial 50 is making the repeated up and down movements.
[0071] In this step, the cylinder unit 300 is expected to be supported with other components (not shown) on the Earth's surface 3, and the piston unit 200 is expected to be supported with the cylinder unit 300.
[0072] In addition, the inner part of the cylinder unit 300 is sealed or with no active air flows and this could cause possible difficulties in making the up and down movements of the piston 220. In order to prevent this problem, an airflow control hose 310 is installed and it is connected to the top and bottom of the cylinder unit 300 through the outside of the cylinder unit 300.
[0073] The airflow control hose 310 performs to have the piston 220 possibly making the up and down movements smoothly without the air resistance inside of the cylinder unit 300.
[0074] The airflow control hose 310 is installed to have the air in the upper section of the piston 220 discharged to outside of the cylinder unit 300, when the piston 220 moves up inside of the cylinder unit 300.
[0075] Further, the airflow control hose 310 is installed to have the air, in the bottom of the piston 220, flowing into the upper section of the cylinder unit 300 after flowing out from the bottom of the piston 220, when the piston 220, inside of the cylinder unit 300, moves down.
[0076] On the other hand, the sucking power of the cylinder unit 300 is expected to have the additional amount, created by the sucker rod 1. For this work, the supply unit 400 is installed to connect between the cylinder unit 300 and the main cylinder unit 30.
[0077] In other words, the supply unit 400 performs to have the extracting objects 10 being forced into the storage 9 once they has been lifted to the ground level while the piston unit 200 moves up and down inside the cylinder unit 300.
[0078] Here, the supply unit 400 connects the cylinder unit 300, the main sucking tube 32 of the main cylinder 30, and the main airflow tube 34.
[0079] Accordingly, the pressures, created from the cylinder unit 300, make the additional amount of the objects 10 conveyed into the main cylinder 30 passing through the main sucking tube 32 and the main airflow tube 34.
[0080] For this work, the supply unit 400 has the main sucking tube 32, being connected to the main cylinder 30 and conveying the mining objects 10, being sucked and lifted to the Earth's surface, and a sucking tube 410, which is connected to the cylinder unit 300.
[0081] The supply unit 400 has a main airflow tube 34, connected to the main cylinder 30, performing as a path for the lifted extracting objects 10 to be delivered to the storage 9, and an airflow tube 420, connected to the cylinder unit 300.
[0082] The supply unit 400 further includes a tap 430. The tap 430 is installed inside of the sucking tube 410 and airflow tube 420 against each other in the opposite directions. The tap 320 opens the airflow tube 420, when the sucking tube 410 is closed, and the top closes the airflow tube 420, when the sucking tube 410 is open as the piston unit 200 moves up and down.
[0083] Finally, the supply unit 400 further includes an extra airflow tube 440. The extra airflow tube 440 is installed in order to be connected to the path of the sucking tube 410 and the airflow tube 420 not to be interfered with any of the movements created by the piston unit 200 when the amount of the mining objects 10 lifted is over the volume of the inner part of the cylinder unit 300.
[0084] Accordingly, the sucking tube 410 performs as a path to convey additionally the sucking power of the cylinder unit 300 to the main sucking tube 320, when the mining objects 10 are lifted through the main sucking tube 32 by the sucking power created by the main cylinder 30.
[0085] The airflow tube 420 performs as a path for the extracting objects 10 with airflow power, conveying the objects into the storage 9 passing through the main airflow tube 34, once the objects 10 are forced to the ground level with the airflow power delivered into the main airflow tube 34 from the cylinder unit 300.
[0086] Further, the extra airflow tube 440 performs as a prior path for the extracting objects 10 to be forced into the airflow tube 420, when the objects 10 have been excessively lifted to the ground level and the amounts are more than the capacity level of the cylinder unit 300.
[0087] Here, more detailed description of the tap 430 will be in the followings.
[0088] FIG. 3 is an illustration, a performance example of the productivity increasing equipment with the invention for extracting the crude oil and gas process.
[0089] FIG. 4 is an illustration, another performance example of the productivity increasing equipment with the invention for extracting the crude oil and gas process.
[0090] Referring to FIGS. 3 and 4, associated with FIGS. 1 and 3, FIG. 3 is illustrating the movements of the connector unit 100, the piston unit 200, the cylinder unit 300, and the supply unit 400 when the main piston axial 50 moves down.
[0091] FIG. 4 is illustrating the movements of the connector unit 100, the piston unit 200, the cylinder unit 300, and the supply unit 400 when the main piston axial 50 moves up.
[0092] When the main piston axial 50 moves down inside of the main cylinder 30, the mining objects 10 lifted to the Earth's surface 3 will be forced into the storage 9 passing through the main airflow tube 34 connected to the main cylinder 30 as shown in FIG. 3.
[0093] As described, the connector unit 100 includes the clamp 110, attached to the main piston axial 50, the moving pipeline 120, being separated from the surface of the piston axial 210 and moving around the surface of the piston axial 210, and the connector section 130, connecting between the clamp 110 and the moving pipeline 120 and having the moving pipeline 120 making the movements as the clamp 110 makes the movements.
[0094] The piston unit 200 includes the piston axial 210, moving up and down from inside to outside of the cylinder unit 300, and the piston 220, a rounded board shape and installed at the very bottom of the piston axial 210 moving up and down.
[0095] The piston unit 200 further includes the top and bottom stoppers 230 and 240, installed at both top and bottom of the piston axial 210 and helping the up and down movements of the piston axial 210, inside of the cylinder unit 200, with the pressures of the connector unit 100.
[0096] The supply unit 400 includes the sucking tube 410 and the airflow tube 420.
[0097] The supply unit 400 further includes the tap 430, installed inside of the sucking tube 410 and airflow tube 420 against each other in the opposite directions. The tap 430 opens the airflow tube 420, when the sucking tube 410 is closed, and the top closes the airflow tube 420, when the sucking tube 410 is open as the piston unit 200 moves up and down.
[0098] Further, the supply unit 400 includes the extra airflow tube 440, helping the extracting objects 10 have a prior flow into the airflow tube 420 when they are lifted to above ground to be delivered into the cylinder unit 300.
[0099] As the main piston axial 50 moves down inside of the main cylinder 30, the clamp 110 of the connector unit 100, connected to the main piston axial 50, moves down together.
[0100] Once the clamp 110 moves down, the connector section 130 and moving pipeline 120 also moves down. The moving pipeline 120 makes the movements following the surface of the piston axial 210 and closely positioned to bottom stopper 240, which is formed at the bottom of the piston axial 210.
[0101] As the clamp 110 moves down, the bottom of the moving pipeline 120 presses the upper side of the bottom stopper 240 and the piston 220, placed at the bottom of the piston axial 210, moves down inside of the cylinder unit 300.
[0102] Since the pressures created when the piston 220 moves down inside of the cylinder unit 300, the mining objects 10 are injected into the main airflow tube 34 passing through the airflow tube 420.
[0103] Here, the extracting objects 10, transferred to the main airflow tube 34 through the airflow tube 420, are forced into the storage 9 passing through the main airflow tube 34.
[0104] At that time, the tap 430 in the airflow tube 420 will be open, and the tap 430 in the sucking tube 410 will be closed.
[0105] After the mining objects 10 have been stored in the storage 9, the main piston axial 50 moves up.
[0106] While the piston 220 moves up inside of the cylinder unit 300, the airflow control hose 310 in the cylinder unit 300 is installed to have the air, from the top of the piston 220 inside of the cylinder unit 300, flow out and then flow in again to the cylinder unit 300.
[0107] When the piston 220 in the cylinder unit 300 moves down, the airflow control hose 310 is installed to have the air, at the bottom of the piston 220 inside of the cylinder unit 300, flow out and then flow in again to the cylinder unit 300.
[0108] As shown in FIG. 4, once the main piston axial 50 inside of the main cylinder 30 moves up, the clamp 110 of the connector unit 100, which is connected to the main piston axial 50, also moves up.
[0109] When the clamp 110 moves up, the connector section 130 and the moving pipeline 120 also move up. The moving pipeline 120 moves up following the surface of the piston axial 210 and then closely positioned to the top stopper 230, which is positioned at the top of the piston axial 210.
[0110] Then, as the clamp 110 continues to move up, the top of the moving pipeline 120 presses the bottom of the top stopper 240 and the piston 220 formed at the bottom of the piston axial 210 moves up inside of the cylinder unit 300.
[0111] Due to the pressure, which is created by the upward movement of the piston 220 inside of the cylinder unit 200, the extracting objects 10 are possible to be lifted to above ground and those objects 10 flow through the main sucking tube 32 and are injected into the cylinder unit 300 passing through the sucking tube 410.
[0112] When the amounts of the extracting objects 10, lifted to above ground to be flowing into the cylinder unit 300, are excessive, the objects 10 are introduced into the extra airflow tube 440 in order to be transported to the airflow tube 420 in advance.
[0113] As the piston axial 210 moves up and the mining objects 10 are lifted to above ground, the tap 430 in the airflow tube 420 will be closed and the tap 430 in the sucking tube 410 will be open.
[0114] When the piston axial 210 has moved up by the pressures of the moving pipeline 120 and the main piston axial 50 moves down again, the moving pipeline 120 also moves down again following the surface of the piston axial 210 and presses the bottom stopper 240.
[0115] In consequence, when the main piston axial 50 moves down inside of the main cylinder 30 and the mining objects 10 are transported to the storage 9 passing through the main airflow tube 34, the piston axial 210 also moves down and the mining objects 10 are possibly transported to the storage 9 passing through the airflow tube 420.
[0116] In contrast, when the main piston axial 50 moves up inside of the main cylinder 30 and the extracting objects 10 are lifted above ground through the main sucking tube 32, the piston axial 210 moves up and additional amount of the objects 10 are lifted through the sucking tube 410.
[0117] Accordingly, there is a particular cycle for the piston axial 210 in accordance with the cycle of the main piston axial 50 in making up and down the movements.
[0118] FIG. 5 is an illustration, a core section of the productivity increasing equipment with the invention for mining the crude oil and gas.
[0119] FIG. 6 is an illustration, the object of FIG. 5 with the isometric view.
[0120] FIG. 7 is an illustration, a performance example of the productivity increasing equipment with the invention for mining the crude oil and gas.
[0121] FIG. 8 is an illustration, another performance example of the object of FIG. 7.
[0122] Referring to FIGS. 5-8 with FIGS. 1 and 2, the tap 430 includes a closing section 432 having a half dome shape and an opening section 434 having a triangle shape in a cross-sectional view formed at the bottom of the closing section 432.
[0123] The tap 430 further includes a moving section 436 connecting the closing section 432 and the opening section 434 section. The cross-sectional area of the moving section 436 is smaller than that of the closing section 432 and the opening section 434.
[0124] Here, the tap 430 is installed inside of the sucking tube 410 and the airflow tube 420 respectively. The tap 430 in the airflow tube 420 will be closed when the sucking tube 410 is open. The tap 430 in the airflow tube 420 will be open when the sucking tube 410 is closed.
[0125] When the piston axial 210 moves down, the tap in the sucking tube 420 will be open in order to suck and lift the extracting objects 10 above ground and the tap 430 in the airflow tube 420 will be closed as described.
[0126] In the same way, when the piston axial 210 moves down, the tap 430 in the sucking tube 410 will be closed and the tap 430 in the airflow tube 420 will be open in order to transport the extracting objects 10, which were lifted above ground, to the storage 9.
[0127] FIG. 7 is illustrating the movements of the tap 430 in the sucking tube 410 while the piston axial 210 moves up.
[0128] Referring to FIG. 7, a sucking control section 415 is provided between the closing section 432 and the opening section 434 in the sucking tube 410. The sucking control section 415 has a sucking hole 412, which has a smaller diameter than the opening section 434 and the closing section 432 but has a greater diameter than the moving section 436 in order to have the moving section 436 moves around the sucking hole 412.
[0129] An airflow control section 425 is provided between the closing section 432 and the opening section 434 in the airflow tube 420. The airflow control section 425 has an airflow hole 412, which has a smaller diameter than the opening section 434 and the closing section 432 but has a greater diameter than the moving section 436 in order to have the moving section 436 moves around the airflow hole 422.
[0130] In other words, when the piston axial 210 moves up inside of the cylinder unit 300, the extracting objects 10, which are supposed to be lifted above ground through the main sucking tube 32, will be delivered into the cylinder unit 300 passing through the sucking tube 410.
[0131] When the extracting objects 10 are transported into the sucking tube 410 by the sucking power of the cylinder unit 300, the moving section 436 of the tap 430 in the sucking tube 410 moves up from the sucking hole 412 and the top of the opening section 434 will be closely position to the bottom of the air sucking control section 415.
[0132] Having the triangle shaped cross-sectional area, the opening section 434 can't completely close the sucking hole 412 but possibly have the extracting objects 10 running through the unclosed area of the hole and moving into the cylinder unit 300.
[0133] Here, the tap 430 formed in the airflow tube 420 are position in the opposite direction with the tap 430 formed in the sucking tube 410.
[0134] Accordingly, the tap 430 formed in the airflow tube 420 moves up by the sucking power of the cylinder unit 300. The moving section 436 moves up through the airflow hole 422 and the top of the closing section 432 is attached to the bottom of the airflow control section 425.
[0135] The closing section 432 has a dome shape and a round shaped cross-sectional area. Accordingly, the closing section 432 completely closes the airflow hole 422 and the extracting objects 10, which are supposed to be delivered into the storage 9, will be stayed in the airflow tube 420.
[0136] As the piston axial 210 moves up, the tap 430 formed in the sucking tube 410 will be open and the airflow tube 420 will be completely closed.
[0137] The airflow control hose 310 in the cylinder unit 300 is installed to have the air flow out from the top of the piston 220 in the cylinder unit 300 and then flow into the bottom of the cylinder unit 300 when the piston 220 in the cylinder unit 300 moves up.
[0138] The airflow control hose 310 is installed to have the air flow out from the bottom of the piston 220 in the cylinder unit 300 and then flow into the top of the cylinder unit 300 when the piston 220 in the cylinder unit 300 moves down.
[0139] Alternatively, the movements of the tap 430 formed in the airflow tube 420 are shown in FIG. 8 when the piston axial 210 moves down.
[0140] Referring to FIG. 8, as the piston axial 210 moves down in the cylinder unit 300, the extracting objects 10, which were lifted to the ground through the main sucking tube 32, are delivered into the storage 9 passing through the airflow tube 420 and the main airflow tube 34.
[0141] When the extracting objects 10, which were delivered into the cylinder unit 300 by the airflow power of the cylinder unit 300, are pressed and moved into the airflow tube 420, the moving section 436 of the tap 430 formed in the airflow tube 420 moves down in the airflow hole 422 and the bottom of the opening section 434 will be attached to the top of the airflow control section 425.
[0142] Having the triangle shaped cross-sectional area, the opening section 434 can't completely close the airflow hole 412 but possibly have the extracting objects 10 running through the unclosed area of the hole and moving into the main airflow tube 34.
[0143] Here, the tap 430 formed in the sucking tube 410 are positioned in the opposite direction to the tap 430 formed in the airflow tube 420.
[0144] Accordingly, the tap 430 formed in the sucking tube 410 moves down by the pressure from the cylinder unit 300. The moving section 436 moves down through the sucking hole 412 and the bottom of the closing section 432 is attached to the top of the sucking control section 415.
[0145] The closing section 432 has a dome shape and a round shaped cross-sectional area. Accordingly, the closing section 432 completely closes the sucking hole 412 and securely prevents moving of the extracting objects 10 from the sucking hole 410 to the main sucking hole 32.
[0146] As the piston axial 210 moves up, the tap 430 formed in the sucking tube 410 will be securely closed and the tap 430 formed in the airflow tube 420 will be open. Accordingly, the extracting objects 10 can be transported and stored in the storage 9 through the airflow tube 420 and the main airflow tube 34.
[0147] Having these structures, it will be possible to produce large volume of the crude oil and gas using the sucker rod power for mining the crude oil and gas.
[0148] It will be possible increase productivity by easily installing and removing the sucker rod in the equipment.
[0149] Further, it will be possible to maximize mining efficiency of the crude oil and gas and minimize power consumption of the sucker rod.
[0150] Although the preferred exemplary embodiment of the present invention has been described as above, the present invention is not limited to the aforementioned specific exemplary embodiment. That is, it should be appreciated by those skilled in the art that multiple changes and modifications of the present invention can be made without departing from the spirit and the scope of the appended claims and equivalents to all appropriate changes and modifications are also included in the scope of the present invention.
