| Abstract: Drilling tools are frequently subject to rotation with respect to the
central drilling axis caused by torque. A mechanical linkage can be
configured to apply force that is proportional to the weight-on-bit on
the borehole surface while transmitting axial loads used to generate
weight-on-bit. The device can be used to manage drill string twist that
could lead to drilling dysfunctions. |
