Title: Vertical direction adjustment tool for downhole drilling apparatus
Inventor: TULLOCH RORY MCCRAE
IPC: E21B7/06
Filed: 2008-06-20
Abstract: A direction adjustment tool (2) for a downhole drilling apparatus is disclosed. The tool has a tubular housing (8) adapted to be incorporated into a downhole drilling apparatus, and steering blades (10) mounted to the housing. A drive shaft (16) transmits drive to a drill bit of a drilling apparatus, wherein the shaft defines a passage for transmitting drilling fluid to the drill bit. A first pressure chamber (32) is defined between the housing and the shaft and communicates with the passage, wherein the steering blades are moved from retracted positions to extended positions thereof as a result of increase of fluid pressure the first pressure chamber. A pendulum member (54) is pivotably mounted to extend in a vertical orientation when the shaft is not rotating relative to the housing, and pistons (60) prevent movement of at least one steering blade to the extended position thereof as a result of the angle between a longitudinal axis of the shaft and the longitudinal axis of the pendulum member exceeding a predetermined amount. This causes at least one steering blade to adjust the direction of drilling of the drilling apparatus towards a vertical direction and/or to resist movement of the direction of drilling away from a vertical direction.

Abstract: 1478585 Elevated rail switches; wheel arrangements DEMAG AG 12 March 1975 [12 March 1974] 10351/75 Heading B7L A railway system comprises a vehicle 1 (a suspended form of which is shown at the bottom of Fig. 2 and a non-suspended alternative form of which is shown at the top of Fig. 2) which is supported and guided along a trackway section by running wheels 2, 2a and guide wheels 3 respectively, the trackway section including three lengths of track which meet at a junction and each have guide surfaces 9 on which the guide wheels 3 engage; and direction selecting wheels 4 for guiding the vehicle through the junction which are displaceable transversely of the vehicle to make contact with guide rails 10 arranged in the vicinity of the junction, the guide surfaces 9 being shaped in the vicinity of the guide rails 10 so that the guide wheels 3 disengage from the guide surfaces when the direction selecting wheels 4 make contact with the guide rails. The selected route through the junction is determined by the position of a cam surface of a movable switch rail 15 which displaces a feeler 6 carried by a rod 5 of a linkage interconnecting the various wheels 3 and 4. Each wheel 4 is thus pivoted about the axis of its associated wheel 3 from a stowed position in the path of travel of the guide wheel 3 to its working position projecting transversely so that, as the guide wheel 3 ceases contact with guide surface 9, the wheels 3 and 4 engage the inner and outer surfaces 11 respectively of the rail 10. The guide surfaces 9 are joined by oblique portions 14 to offset portions 13 in the junction region. The direction selecting wheels 4 are of smaller diameter than the guide wheels 3, wheels 3 and 4 being of light material such as plastics or aluminium alloy.
