METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR PROVIDING CONTACT OF ELECTRIC LEADS WITH CASING COLUMN IN MULTIELECTRODE LOGGING TOOL FOR ELECTRICAL LOGGING THROUGH METAL COLUMN Russian patent published in 2013 - IPC G01V3/20 E21B47/125 

FIELD: physics.

SUBSTANCE: electrodes are separately exposed to the impact of periodically accumulated potential energy of a spring, which is generated by rotating screw pairs and abrupt (impact) release of energy when screw interaction of crests of the screw pairs ceases. The apparatus for realising the method is a drive structure having an output shaft which actuates the screw pairs. During forward rotation, the screw pairs open centralisers and elastically press the electric leads to the wall of the well casing, apply periodic action on the electrodes that are rigidly connected to the electric leads. The electric leads are cut into the wall of the well casing. Impact action occurs when screw interaction between the screw and nut, which is pressed by a power spring, ceases.

EFFECT: improved electrical contact between electric leads and a casing column.
