  • Patent number: 11788383
    Abstract: A tool for cleaning debris from a wellbore comprises a rotational portion and a stationary portion. The rotational portion is configured to be coupled to a workstring disposed in the wellbore such that rotation of the workstring rotates the rotational portion. The stationary portion at least partially surrounds the rotational portion. The stationary portion is configured to remain stationary when the rotational portion and the workstring are rotated. The rotational portion and the stationary portion are shaped and configured such that, when the workstring is at least partially disposed in well fluid present in the wellbore, rotation of the rotational portion causes movement of well fluid such that well fluid flows into the workstring, thereby carrying debris from the wellbore into the workstring.

    Abstract: This invention relates to cleaning the induction systems, the combustion chambers and exhaust systems of internal combustion engines. And, more particularly, to chemicals and mixtures of chemicals for removing the different types of carbon deposits encountered in internal combustion engines used in “road vehicles”. Carbon deposits were taken from the induction systems of these road vehicles for the purpose of bench testing such carbon and product development. More specifically, chemicals (i.e., solvents) and chemical mixes (i.e., solutions) have been accurately tested on such harvested carbon deposits for their ability to remove the various types of carbon deposits that accumulate within road vehicle internal combustion engines. Additionally this invention also relates to apparatus for delivering chemicals and chemical mixes.
