Abstract
1,159,616. Raising liquids. A.G. BODINE. Oct. 18, 1966 [Nov. 10, 1965], No.46599/66. Heading F1R. A sonic deep well pump having pumping means coupled to an elastic transmission line 12, e.g. a pump tubing string, a rod string or a cable, is operated at a frequency which is below but close to a harmonic of the fundamental resonant frequency of the transmission line and the amplitude of the elastic strains in the transmission line at the operating frequency is adjusted so that the strains do not exceed the limits imposed by the material and construction of the transmission line. The operating frequency is preferably between 4 and 100 c. p. s. and the spacing of the pumping means along the transmission line is preferably between 5 and 100 ft. The well tubing 12 is sonically vibrated by a vibrator G coupled to its upper end. The vibrator comprises a pair of oppositely rotating shafts, carrying out of balance weights, driven from an electric induction motor 36 through a belt 37 and a universally jointed shaft 29. The shaft 29 is coupled to a flywheel 40. The vibrator is driven at the desired operating frequency and the weights and their centres of gravity are adjusted so that the strains do not exceed the constructional limits. The pumping means are formed by check valves (82, Fig. 5, not shown), in couplings (70) between lengths of well tubing. The pumped liquid may be de-gassified prior to entry into the pump or during its passage therethrough.
