Assembly of a servo pump and a hydraulic motor

An assembly of a servo pump and a hydraulic motor. The assembly has a housing which contains the pump and the motor. The motor has a rotating body which rotates under the motive power of a pressurised motor liquid flow. The motor has a high pressure region which receives the pressurised motor liquid flow, and a low pressure region through which the motor liquid flow leaves the motor. The pump also has a rotating body. The pump has a low pressure region which receives servo liquid flow to be pumped by its rotating body, and a high pressure region through which pressurised servo liquid flow leaves the pump. Each rotating body is mounted on a respective journal.

Tapered stators in positive displacement motors remediating effects of rotor tilt

Tapered stator designs are engineered in a positive displacement motor (PDM) power section to relieve stator stress concentrations at the lower (downhole) end of the power section in the presence of rotor tilt. A contoured stress relief (i.e. a taper) is provided in the stator to compensate for rotor tilt, where the taper is preferably more aggressive at the lower end of the stator near the bit.

Method for forming a mud motor stator

A method of forming a mud motor stator having a passage including a first end defining a first opening, a second end defining a second opening and an intermediate portion extending therebetween includes introducing a liner material into the passage at one of the first end and the second end of the stator, inserting a mandrel having a contoured surface into the passage through one of the first end and the second end of the stator, shifting one of the mandrel and the stator relative to the other of the mandrel and the stator, and flowing the liner material over the contoured surface of the mandrel from the one of the first and second ends toward the other of the first and second ends to form a liner on the inner surface of the passage.
