  • Patent number: 8555957
    Abstract: A crude oil production equipment includes a submersible pump coupled with a driving shaft, a linear motor, an oil pipe, a well casing, a filter pipe, an outer passage, an inner tube, an upper valve ball, a piston and a lower valve ball. During down stroke of the driving shaft, a suction force is produced to suck crude oil from the well casing into the upper chamber of the inner and the piston forces crude oil out of the lower chamber of the inner tube into the inner passage and then the outlet of the oil pipe. During up stroke of the driving shaft, the piston forces crude oil out of the upper chamber into the lower chamber, and the driving shaft enters the upper chamber and the lower chamber to force crude oil out of the lower chamber out of the oil outlet of the oil pipe.

  • Patent number: 7699097
    Abstract: A mover stabilizing and stator cooling arrangement includes an upper sleeve surrounding the mover of the linear motor, a lower sleeve, a thermoconducting sleeve surrounding the stator and axially connected between the upper sleeve and the lower sleeve. The arrangement further includes a thermal grease filled in the space defined between the upper sleeve and the mover, the space defined between the thermoconducting sleeve and the stator, and the space defined between the lower sleeve and the outer tube for quick dissipation of waste heat. A stabilizer ring is set between the upper sleeve and the mover to stabilize axial movement of the mover. A piston and multiple one-way valve sets are mounted in the space between the lower sleeve and the outer tube for allowing adjustment of the volume in the thermoconducting sleeve responsive to expansion/contraction of the thermal grease due to temperature changes.

  • Patent number: 6595757
    Abstract: An air compressor control system is constructed to include a motor, an accumulation tank, a pump, a pressure switch, a pressure control valve, and a micro-controller. When the pressure of the accumulation tank surpassed a predetermined high level, the pressure switch is off, thereby causing the micro-controller to open the pressure control valve for relieving forced air pressure and then to turn off the motor. When the pressure of the accumulation tank dropped below the predetermined low level, the pressure switch is switched on, thereby causing the micro-controller to provide power supply to the motor again and then to close the air pressure control valve for enabling forced air to be pumped into the accumulation tank by the pump after the motor has been fully started.
