US Patent:

6419034, Jul 16, 2002

Filed:

Nov 7, 2000

Appl. No.:

09/707830

Inventors:

J. Daniel Belnap - Pleasant Grove UT
Ronald K. Eyre - Orem UT
Michael A. Siracki - The Woodlands TX
Per I. Nese - Houston TX
Madapusi K. Keshavan - Sandy UT

Assignee:

Smith International, Inc. - Houston TX

International Classification:

E21B 1056

US Classification:

175428, 175430

Abstract:

Enhanced inserts are formed having a cylindrical grip and a protrusion extending from the grip. An ultra hard material layer is bonded on top of the protrusion. The inserts are mounted on a rock bit and contact the earth formations off center. The ultra hard material layer is thickest at a critical zone which encompasses a major portion of the region of contact between the insert and the earth formation. Transition layers may also be formed between the ultra hard material layer and the protrusion so as to reduce the residual stresses formed on the interface between the ultra hard material and the protrusion.

International Classification:

US Classification:

75231, 419 11, 75252, 175374

Abstract:

PCD materials of this invention comprise diamond crystals that are bonded together with a catalyst/binder material. The PCD material is prepared by combining diamond grains with a catalyst/binder material either as a premixture or by infiltration during sintering. The PCD material comprises 15 percent by volume or less diamond grains sized 20 micrometers or less. The diamond grains are pressurized under elevated temperature conditions to form the desired PCD material. PCD materials of this invention can constitute the exclusive material phase of a PCD construction, or can form one or more material phase in a multi-phase material microstructure, wherein the multiple material phase can be arranged in an ordered/oriented or random fashion. PCD materials of this invention display improved properties of impact and fatigue resistance, and functional toughness, when used in complex wear environments, when compared to conventional PCs materials comprising intentionally added fine-sized diamond grains.

International Classification:

H04L 12/58

US Classification:

709206

Abstract:

Described herein are methods and systems for displaying an email conversation similar to an instant message format by integrating aspects of an email system with an instant messaging interface. In one aspect, messages may be sent over existing email channels using email protocols through email servers and an email system (e.g., email client and/or email server) may identify the messages as cross-platform messages (CPM) based on whether the message body includes either no or only predefined content, or the message includes a predefined unique identifier. If a message is identified as a CPM then the message is treated similar to an instant message and may be displayed in a threaded view. In some embodiments, messages having content in the body may be treated as conventional email messages.

Abstract:

A polycrystalline diamond layer is bonded to a cemented metal carbide substrate by this process. A layer of dense high shear compaction material including diamond or cubic boron nitride particles is placed adjacent to a metal carbide substrate. The particles of diamond have become rounded instead of angular due to high shear compaction in a multiple roller process. The volatiles in the high shear compaction material are removed and binder decomposed at high temperature, for example, 950. degree. C. , leaving residual amorphous carbon or graphite in a layer of ultra hard material particles on the carbide substrate. The substrate and layer assembly is then subjected to a high pressure, high temperature process, thereby sintering the ultra hard particles to each other to form a polycrystalline ultra hard layer bonded to the metal carbide substrate. The layer of high shear compaction material is also characterized by a particle size distribution including larger and smaller particles that are distributed uniformly throughout the layer.
