摘要
Improved lubricant pressure compensation is achieved in apparatus operative between substantially different changing pressures, for example earth drilling tools and deep submergence ocean machinery, by a flexible hermetically sealed gas-containing chamber which is operative to apply ambient pressures through the interiorly contained gas to a flexible wall membrane which at least partially defines a lubricant containing reservoir. The pressure exerting chamber and the lubricant containing reservoir may both be defined by flexible bladder-like structures with the lubricant containing reservoir contained within the interior of the pressure exerting chamber. In earth drilling apparatus, the reservoir and chamber structures are preferably operatively positioned on a drill collar in adjacency to a rotary drill bit, and lubricant is communicated through passageways from the reservoir to the bearing and seal assemblies operative between the drill bit body and the rotationally mounted cutter wheels.
