摘要

Downhole devices, wells that include the downhole devices, and methods of utilizing the same are disclosed herein. The downhole devices (190) include a core (102); a sealing component holder (180) positioned within the core including an opening (189) to an external surface of the core; a plurality of sealing components (182) positioned within the sealing component holder; a metering device (186); and a cover positioned over the opening (187). The metering device is constructed and arranged to displace an internal volume of the sealing component holder and discharge through the opening a portion of the plurality of sealing components contained within the sealing component holder. The cover is constructed and arranged to allow the portion of the sealing components to exit the opening upon displacement of the internal volume of the sealing component holder.
