Title: Downhole flow diversion device with oscillation damper
Inventor: CRAMER DAVID S
IPC: E21B21/08
Filed: 2015-11-30
Abstract: A device for limiting the flow of drilling fluid through a section of drill string, for example to prevent damage to a mud motor, is described. The device includes a cylindrical tube with holes in its periphery. Flow enters the device through an upper end of the tube and a portion of the flow exits through the lower end of the tube. In addition, some of the flow is diverted through the peripheral holes. A valve piston is supported near the lower end of the tube by a spring of approximately constant force through its range of travel. The valve piston moves axially as the flow rate through the tube changes flow rate to ensure that a substantially constant amount of flow exits through the lower end, while the excess flow is diverted from the tube through the peripheral holes. A means of damping or stopping the axial movement of the valve piston to prevent damage to the device is included in the device.

Abstract: FIELD: medical equipment, in particular, apparatuses for pulmonary ventilation used in paramedical, ambulance and emergency medical services in country-side and field conditions. SUBSTANCE: specific conditions of paramedical ambulance and emergency medical services make strict demands to the equipment mass and dimensional parameters. The most optimum requirement is the combination of traditional pulmonary ventilation with jet high-frequency pulmonary ventilation in the same apparatus. The necessity of use of jet high-frequency pulmonary ventilation is determined by the necessity of rendering of emergency of patients. The apparatus for pulmonary ventilation uses a compressed-gas supply unit, generator, first interrupter of compressed gas flow connected through an injector and gas-conducting hoses to the device for connection to the patient; breathing tracts, second interrupter of compressed-gas flow with a valve, as well as two valves, inverter, second interrupter of compressed-gas flow, apparatus function selector switch and device for protection of the patient. The generator has two bands and uses two air relays, invariable and variable air-flow restrictors, smaller and larger vessels; the inlet of the first air relay is connected to the inlets of the air-flow restrictors, first valve and inverter control chamber, whose outlet is connected to the control chamber of the second compressed-gas flow interrupter connected to the patient's breathing tracks. The outlet of the invariable air-flow restrictor communicates with the atmosphere. The outlet of the variable air-flow restrictor communicates with the control chamber of the first air relay, smaller vessel, and through the second air relay- with the larger vessel. The outlet of the first valve is connected to the control chamber of the second valve, whose outlet is connected to the control chamber of the first compressed-gas flow interrupter, and the control chamber of the second air relay and other inlets of both valves are connected to the apparatus function selector switch; the inlets of the first and second compressed-gas flow interrupters are connected to the compressed-gas supply unit.

Abstract: FIELD: ship-raising technique; raising of heavy objects (sunken ships, vessels, etc) from deep depths. SUBSTANCE: known ship-raising pontoons are made in form of cylindrical envelopes with horizontal axis of rotation and with extremities made in form of truncated cone. Disadvantage of such pontoons consists in considerable motions in swell when they are on surface which is likely to result in break of ship-raising slings. Proposed ship-raising pontoon has special wave-resistant form. It consists of two main parts. Upper part is made in form of semi-submersible vertical tower (or several towers) having lengths of 1.1 to 1.2 of rated height of wave and lower part is made in form of fully submerged box-shaped passive-active damper whose total volume is equal to 1.8-2.2 of submerged volume of vertical towers. Hull of pontoon is made from rigid structural materials and is divided into ballast compartments. Hull is equipped with hawse pipes for ship-raising slings, sling-shortening device, blow and ventilation passages, air-buoyancy tank located in upper portion of vertical towers, appendages and lower necks with drives. EFFECT: considerable reduction of jerks in ship-raising slings due to reduction of motions in swell.
