Apparatuses And Methods Relating To Cooling A Subterranean Drill Bit And/Or At Least One Cutting Element During Use

US Patent:
7493965, Feb 24, 2009
Filed:
Apr 12, 2006
Appl. No.:
11/279476
Inventors:
Kenneth E. Bertagnolli - Sandy UT, US
Scott M. Schmidt - Draper UT, US
Assignee:
US Synthetic Corporation - Orem UT
International Classification:
C09K 8/02, E21B 7/00, E21B 36/00
US Classification:
175 17, 175425
Abstract:
One aspect of the instant disclosure relates to a subterranean drilling assembly comprising a subterranean drill bit and a sub apparatus coupled to the drill bit. Further, the sub apparatus may include at least one cooling system configured to cool at least a portion of the drill bit. For example, the sub apparatus may include at least one cooling system comprising a plurality of refrigeration coils or at least one thermoelectric device. In another embodiment a subterranean drill bit may include at least one cooling system positioned at least partially within the subterranean drill bit. Also, a sub apparatus or subterranean drill bit may be configured to cool drilling fluid communicated through at least one bore of a subterranean drill bit and avoiding cooling drilling fluid communicated through at least another bore of the subterranean drill bit. Methods of operating a subterranean drill bit are disclosed.

Superabrasive Compact With Selected Interface And Rotary Drill Bit Including Same

US Patent:
7493972, Feb 24, 2009
Filed:
Aug 9, 2006
Appl. No.:
11/463452
Inventors:
Scott M. Schmidt - Draper UT, US
Michael John Sandstrom - Highland UT, US
Assignee:
US Synthetic Corporation - Orem UT
International Classification:
E21B 10/36
US Classification:
175432
Abstract:
A superabrasive compact including a superabrasive layer bonded to a substrate along a selected interface is disclosed. In one embodiment, an interface may comprise a depression and a dividing wall, wherein the dividing wall forms at least one closed plane figure. In another embodiment, an interface may comprise a depression, a dividing wall forming at least one closed plane figure, and at least one raised feature positioned within the depression. In a further embodiment, an interface may comprise a depression formed into the substrate, the depression surrounded by a closed peripheral wall exhibiting a thickness of about 0. 080 inches or less. A rotary drill bit including at least one cutting element is also disclosed.
