20150129307 | Method and Apparatus for Protecting Downhole Components From Shock and Vibration - The lower end assembly of a measurement while drilling tool is secured against shock and vibration while drilling through the use of a locking cuff, an abrasion ring and a locking nut. A mule shoe at a lower end of the assembly has a diameter sized to allow a pulser helix to pass. The locking cuff is installed on one end of the mule shoe. A poppet housing is attached to an end of the pulser helix opposite the mule shoe. An abrasion ring is received about the external diameter of the pulser helix and is received on a shoulder located between the pulser helix and the poppet housing. An externally threaded lower end of the locking nut is received within a mating threaded bore in the extended locking cuff so that a portion of the locking nut is located between the locking cuff and the poppet housing. Tightening the locking nut within the bore of the locking cuff acts to lock the lower end assembly with respect to the mule shoe. | 05-14-2015 |
20130319557 | Metal Reinforced Seal Plate for Pilot Actuated Spool Valve - Upper and/or lower seal plates of a sub plate mounted, pilot actuated spool valve are reinforced with one or more metal rings. In a number of preferred embodiments, the metal ring is comprised of steel. Portions of the seal plates may comprise an engineering thermoplastic such as polyoxymethylene (POM) sold by E. I. DuPont de Nemours under the DELRIN® trademark. The plastic material may be molded to the metal ring. In other embodiments, the plastic material and metal ring(s) are mechanically connected together. | 12-05-2013 |
20110017444 | Dual Stripper Assembly for Slick Cable - The dual stripper device of the invention has a hollow body formed for coaxial connection to the wellhead which provides for unobstructed passage of a slick cable, such as a data transmitting cable which transmits data in real time to the well surface. Disposed coaxially within the hollow body is a resilient wiper element with an internal bore formed along its longitudinal axis for passage of the slick cable. A hydraulically actuated piston applies a compressive force to the wiper element so that a pressure seal is formed between the wiper element and the cable when the wiper element is sufficiently compressed by the piston. The seal can be maintained during dynamic movement of the slick cable through the wiper element. A mirror image backup wiper assembly can be actuated in the case of failure of the first wiper assembly. | 01-27-2011 |
