Abstract: A downhole tool for cleaning a wellbore, the tool including a tool body having a flowpath therethrough. A liquid is configured to flow through the flowpath and may have an intermittent flow pattern. An inner sleeve positioned within the tool body includes a recess having a recess pattern. In response to the intermittent flow pattern, a shift pin positioned in the recess of the inner sleeve traverses through the recess pattern. The downhole tool includes at least one scraper blade. The scraper blade is movable between a retracted position and a radially expanded position. In response to the shift pin traversing the recess pattern of the recess, the scraper blade can be expanded radially outward toward a wall of the wellbore from the retracted position to the expanded position and/or retracted inward away from the wall of the wellbore from the expanded position to the retracted position.

Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for controlling a downhole tool by encoding a tool control signal in a fluid flow and obtaining a temperature response downhole. In an example, a system for controlling a downhole tool includes a signal transmitter, a signal receiver, and a controller. The signal transmitter is uphole of the tool to be controlled (e.g., at surface) and encodes the tool control signal by varying one or more fluid flow parameters of a fluid flow down a well. The signal receiver is positionable in the well in fluid communication with the fluid flow. The signal receiver detects a temperature response in the fluid flow resulting from varying the one or more fluid flow parameters. A controller controls the downhole tool according to the temperature response.

Abstract: A downhole tool for cleaning a wellbore includes a tool body having a passage therein. A liquid is to flow through the passage of the tool body and have an intermittent flow pattern. An inner sleeve positioned within the tool body includes a recess having a recess pattern. In response to the intermittent flow pattern of the flow of fluid, a shift pin positioned in the recess of the inner sleeve is to traverse through the recess pattern. The downhole tool includes at least one scraper blade. The scraper blade is movable between a retracted position and a radially expanded position. In response to the shift pin traversing the recess pattern of the recess, the scraper blade can be expanded radially outward toward a wall of the wellbore from the retracted position to the expanded position and/or retracted inward away from the wall of the wellbore from the expanded position to the retracted position.
