Abstract
A dampener device is configured for incorporation into a downhole measurement tool in a drilling system, for absorbing axial, lateral and torsional shocks and vibrations to protect measurement instrumentation located above the device during drilling. The device includes: a main sleeve having a main cavity containing a main spring; an adapter connected to or formed monolithically relative to the main sleeve, the adapter configured for connection to a first tool component; a plunger configured to compress the main spring; a connector configured for connection to a second tool component, the connector attached to or formed monolithically relative to the plunger; a shaft extending between the adapter and the connector, the shaft provided with an anti-rotation structure; and one or more passages leading from the outside of the device into the main cavity. The passages are provided to allow drilling fluid to enter the main cavity to act as vibration dampening fluid.
