Granted: 2009-05-26
Abstract: A drive line for a down hole mud motor has a plurality of elongate keys extending radially from an exterior surface of a central shaft for the purpose of transmitting torque. A plurality of circumferentially spaced axial keyways are provided in an interior surface of each end housing, which are adapted to receive the keys. Each of the keys has opposed sides, opposed ends and a front face. The front face is radiused both in a first direction between the opposed ends and in a second direction between the opposed sides, thereby accommodating the omni-directional pivotal movement of the shaft relative to the housing. The use of keys for torque transmission increases available contact area, with a corresponding increase in torque load capacity.

Abstract: Il est prévu une nouvelle catégorie d~additifs polymères pour la fabrication de papier de même qu~un procédé de fabrication idoine, un procédé d~utilisation de ceux-ci et une feuille de papier contenant cette addition. On peut employer les additifs dans la fabrication de papier comme agents améliorant la rétention, le fonctionnement des machines à papier et les propriétés de résistance du produit. Les additifs se fabriquent à partir de la biomasse qui est un dérivé de la production microbiologique d~acide citrique par un processus de fermentation utilisant l~Aspergillus Niger, dérivé convenable d~un autre processus microbiologique, ou à partir d~une biomasse produite spécifiquement à cet effet. La biomasse contenant des groupes aminés acétyle ou d~autres amides est modifiée chimiquement par hydrolyse des amides pour former des groupes aminés primaires. Dans des conditions neutres ou acides, ces aminés primaires deviennent cationiques, ce qui garantit une bonne absorption de l~additif sur des fibres et des fines de pâte, qui est généralement de nature anionique. En outre, les groupes aminés primaires peuvent former des liaisons chimiques avec des groupes carbonyle, et des interactions ioniques avec des groupes carboxyle. Ces deux groupes sont abondants dans les fibres et les fines de pâtes, surtout les pâtes mécaniques. L~additif fabriqué de cette manière peut contenir des polymères glucosamines que l~on peut accrocher chimiquement à un oligomère ou polymère d~hydrate de carbone. Les additifs de fabrication de papier novateurs fabriqués de cette manière conviennent en particulier à la fabrication de papier à partir de suspensions de pâte fibreuse obtenues au moins partiellement à partir de pâtes mécaniques, dont la charge hautement négative tend à submerger une majorité de polymères cationiques conventionnels.
