  • Publication number: 20200024922
    Abstract: The tool assembly vibrates a casing string or drill string in a wellbore. The tool assembly includes a housing, an insert mounted in the housing as a fluidic agitator, and a cover fitted over the insert. The insert includes an inlet chamber, a vortex chamber, and a feedback chamber, and the fluid flow through the insert has a pressure profile with a plurality of levels determined by the feedback chamber. The strength and frequency of the pressure profile can be regulated by the feedback chamber according to position, size and asymmetry of the transition channels connected to the feedback chamber. The high strength and low frequency pressure pulses can be achieved in the limited space of the housing for placement of the inlet and outlet.

  • Patent number: 10125552
    Abstract: The present invention provides a convex ridge type non-planar cutting tooth and a diamond drill bit, the convex ridge type non-planar cutting tooth comprises a cylindrical body, the surface of the end portion of the cylindrical body is provided with a main cutting convex ridge and two non-cutting convex ridges, the inner end of the main cutting convex ridge and the inner ends of the two non-cutting convex ridges converge at the surface of the end portion of the cylindrical body, the outer end of the main cutting convex ridge and the outer ends of the two non-cutting convex ridges extend to the outer edge of the surface of the end portion of the cylindrical body, the surfaces of the end portion of the cylindrical body on both sides of the main cutting convex ridge are cutting bevels. The convex ridge type non-planar cutting tooth and the diamond drill bit have great ability of impact resistance and balling resistance.
