<p>A stabilizer bearing assembly is described for maintaining separation between a substantially nonrotating inner tube assembly and a rotating core barrel within which the inner tube assembly is disposed. The bearing assembly comprises a cylindrical tube having a cylindrical sleeve segment concentrically slidably mounted on the tube over an external bearing portion thereof. The tube includes an upper and a lower segment, with the hardened bearing portion over which the sleeve sits being located near the lower end of the upper segment. A flange demarcs the upper edge of the bearing portion. The upper end of the lower tube segment is threadedly attached over the lower end of the upper segment. The sleeve segment is trapped between the flange and the edge of the upper end of the lower tube segment. The inner surface of the sleeve has a plurality of spaced longitudinal furrows and the outer surface of the sleeve has raised ridges corresponding to the furrows.</p> |
