Let you have a further understanding of the mud pump

I. Introduction

　　A mud pump is a reciprocating plunger pump that converts the rotational motion of the motor into the reciprocating linear motion of the cross head and the piston through a crank connecting rod mechanism, compressing low-pressure mud into high-pressure mud. One of the most important process equipment in oil drilling operations is to transport high-viscosity, heavy and high-sand-content drilling fluid to the high-pressure bottom of the well during the drilling process, cool the drill bit, flush the bottom of the well, break the rock, and carry rock cuttings when returning from the bottom of the well.

2. Working Principle

　　The working process of a mud pump is divided into two steps: the suction process and the discharge process.

　　Generally, we divide mud pumps into two parts: the liquid power end and the power end. The power end is used to transmit power and convert motion modes and speeds. Provide appropriate power for the liquid force end; The liquid force end is used to convert mechanical energy into internal energy of the liquid for transporting slurry.
