Abstract: A bellows motor expansion chamber for electric submersible pumps (ESP). An ESP assembly includes an electric submersible motor between a thrust chamber and a motor expansion chamber, the motor expansion chamber including a bellows coupled to a releasable bellows anti-movement system including a heat-activated release and alterable between an immobilizing position, wherein the releasable anti-movement system prevents concertinaed movement of the bellows in the immobilizing position, and a released position, wherein the bellows is concertinaedly moveable in the released position, and wherein the releasable bellows anti-movement system is in the immobilizing position below a release temperature and in the released position above the release temperature. A filter section within a well fluid inlet of the bellows motor expansion chamber includes a least two concentric filters of varying porosity, and a housing surrounding the filters including angled ribs and flow holes.

Abstract: An integrated gear and torsional vibration damper assembly (10, 20, 30, 30) includes a gear (11, 21, 31, 41) having a toothed portion (11a, 21a, 31a, 41a) and a torsional vibration damper (12, 22, 32, 42) supported on the gear (11, 21, 31, 41) for limited rotational and dampened movement relative to each other. The gear (11) may include a hub portion (11b), and the torsional vibration damper (12) may be supported on the hub portion (11b) of the gear (11). Alternatively, the gear (21) may include a hub portion (21b), an intermediate ring (23) may be supported on the hub portion (21b) of the gear (21), and the torsional vibration damper (22) may be supported on the intermediate ring (23). Alternatively, the gear (31) may include a toothed portion (31a) and a hub portion (31b) that extends radially inwardly from the toothed portion (31a) and has an opening (31c) extending therethrough, and the torsional vibration damper (32) may extend through the opening (31c).
