Abstract
A wellbore rotating instrument system includes a source of rotational energy for transmission thereof to within a wellbore. At least one magnetic gear assembly is coupled at its input to an output of the source. A rotating load is coupled at its input to a rotational output of the magnetic gear assembly. The at least one magnetic gear assembly comprises a housing, a stator disposed in the housing proximate an inner wall thereof, a second shaft rotatably supported on bearings disposed at longitudinally spaced apart locations inside the housing and a first shaft rotatably supported inside the output shaft. The stator comprises a plurality of magnets disposed in generally circular laminations. The second shaft comprises a non-magnetic, electrically non-conductive body and a plurality of pole pieces disposed circumferentially therearound. The first shaft comprises magnets disposed around its exterior circumference and shaped to fit rotatably within the second shaft.
