SPEAK FOR OIL-WELL CASINGS 0R TUBING.
Application filed May 10, 1927.
This invention relates to a spear for use in recovering disengaged casings or tubing from oil and other deep wells, and has in view particularly such a spear provided with means for certainly disengaging it from such easing or tubing in case the'latter cannot be pulled or recovered, and is designed with a view to use with the usual rotary well drilling apparatus now in general use.
The primary objects are to provide a very simple, sturdy and positively acting releasable spear to decrease friction and facilitate the ease of the releasing operation; to provide a mandrel below the gripping means and adapted to be drawn up into the same by lifting the drill pipe or piping in the usual way, said mandrel being freely rotatable and substantially stationary in an axial direction with relation to the other parts of the spear and permitting the independent rotation of the part on which it is mounted: to provide a very simple combination of parts permitting free axial or slip movement of the gripping elements with relation to the mandrel and providing for the positive reverse movement of the solid slip-ring and depending gripping segments, all of which objects, among others, are accom plished by the construction, combination and arrangement of parts all as hereinafter more particularly set forth and described.
In the accompanying drawings, showing merely the preferred embodiment of my invention to illustrate the practice of my invention, as by law required:
Figure 1 represents a side elevation of a device embodying my invention as introduced into, and gripping, a well casing or tubing, which is shown in section;
Figure 2, a View similar to Fig. 1, the solid ring-slip gripping member, and the coupling to the drill piping being shown in section;
Figure 3, a view in longitudinal crossseetion of the spear as coupled to the drill pipe, and omitting the tubing or casing to be pulled;
Figure at, a section on line of Fig. 3;
Figure 5, a view, similar to Fig. 2, ot' the spear as introduced into the tubing or casing and as lowered therein prior to any gripping action;
Figure 6, aview, similar to Fig. 5, of the spear by itself, the ring-slip gripping element being shown as positively raised and Serial No. 190,256.
held away from the mandrel positively prevent ng anv gripping action;
l igure l, a side elevation of the hollow stem or shaft on which the other elements of the combination are mounted; and
Figure 8, a section on line 8- -8 of Fig. 5.
Referring now in detail to the drawings, A designates the externally screw-threaded lower end portion of a string or drilling pipe to which the fishing spear may be connected by means of an internally screwthreaded collar B having-a reduced internally screw-tln'eaded bore in its lower portion to receive the externally serew-threaded upper end portion of the tubular stem or shaft 1 of the fishing spear, said stem or shaft 1 being hollow or tubular to permit the circulation of fluid.
Said shaft 1 is provided with upper and lower stops 3, which stops may be integral with said stem, though this is not essential. and which may be of any form suitable to the purpose, including the annular collar form illustrated, and which may be formed as a single broad stop band with upwardly and downwardly presented stop shoulders or faces, or as to flanges as illustrated.
it rib 2 extending radially beyond the cylindrical outer face of the shaft 1 .to turn therewith, and which may be a separate part or key embedded therein and extending longitudinally of the upper portion'of said shaft 1 may be provided for cooperation with a releasing nut st having a large smooth inner bore slotted to receive said rib 2 to be thereby feathered to the shaft 1, or of other irregular internal contour to cooperate with said shaft 1 to turn therewith, is slipped over the upper end of said shaft 1 and is freely slidable axially thereof but looked, as explained, against independent rotation, and is limited in its axial move ment toward the lower end of the shaft 1 by the upper stop 3.
This nut 4 is formed with a large coarse external right-hand screw-thread for its entire length, as shown, to engage in the corresponding internal screw-thread in the upper portion of the solid slip-ring5, which has a depending resilient skirt longitudinally slotted at regular intervals by downwardly flaring slots 6 extending through its lower edge, there being four such slots in the embodiment illustrated, to form a plurality of resilient segments 7 integral with said solid ,tial.
The lower portion of said skirt prior to the slotting operation has a cylindrical outer face which is serrated to form the gripping teeth 8, and a downwardly flaring inner conical face to provide the upwardly radially inwardly inclined wedging faces 9 of the segments 7 to be engaged by the opposing; face of the conical spreading mandrel 10, which has a large smooth central bore 11. of appreciably greater diameter than. the 6XtGT- nal dian'ieter ol the shatt- 1 and which is applied in an axial direction over the lower end 01 shalt 1 and n'ioved axially thereof until the upper end of said mandrel 10 is adjacent to the lower :lace ot' the lower stop An internally screw-threaded guide or pilot nut 12, which is longitudinally central bored to permit the circulation or" fluid be tween the casing G to be pulled and the shaft 1, then applied to the externally sorew-threaded lower end portion of the shaft 1 to hold the mandrel 10 against axial displacement or separation from the sl'iatt 1 while permitting tree rotation of said inandrel 10 on said shat't 1, or the free rotation of said shalt 1 in said mandrel 10, so that in case the tubing or cz sing C cannot be pulled, so that it becomes necessary to release the grip of the spear, the rotary movement nee-- essary will not be opposed by opposed surfaces held in tight locking frictional engagement oycr a'larg'e area.
To insert the spear in a casing C, the parts are adjusted approximately as illustrated in Fig. 5. the release nut l extending slightly above the solid, slip-ring 5, so that said release nut l, slip-ring 5, and its depending segments 7 may'more freely on the shaft 1 in either axial direction, the contact with the casing- (l as. the spear is lowered therein holding said parts raised, as shown in. Fig. When the spear has been lowered to the desired pointtogrip, the drill piping A, with the attached spear, is gently raised. the weight of the releasing; nut l, slip-ring 5 and integral segments 7, plus the frictional contact with the inside oi the casing or tubing O serving to hold said parts relative y stationary while the nnindrel 10 is drawn upward, spreading the segments 7 as it is drawn upward and forcingthe teeth 8 of said segments radially outward into the tubing or casing- C, and when this is accomplished the hoist will be operated as usual to. raise pull or recover such casing or tubing C.
If, for any reason, the casing or tubing C is caught or tightly held and cannotbe pulled, it is of importance to be able to let go and so avoid loss of the drilling piping and fishing spear. To do this, the hoist line will he eased oil slightly so as to exert the weight of the string of drilling pipe on the spear, tending to force it down in the tubing or casing; (l, and the string or drilling piping A, with shaft 1, release nut l and stops 3, and pilot or guide nut 12 will all be rotated together to the right, causing the nut i, by reason of ts engagement in the new stationary slip-ring 5, to more axially of the shaft 1 toward the lower end thereof until it abuts against upper stop 3, when further movement of the nut in that axial direction will be thereby prevented, so tl it continued rota tion to the right causes the slip-ring 5 to ride up on the nut -l-. that is, move in the reverse lzP-ilill direction upward away from to an exaggerthe mandrel 10. as indicated ated degree in Fig.5. ti, until the segments 7 have sprung, bacl: to normal uncxpandcd or contracted position, being held posi" 'ely in this relation and so n'evci'iting turtlun' gripping of ll 2 tubing; or casing; C and permitting the unimpeded withdrawal of the string or drill piping A, and the fishing spear.
During such right hand rotation 01 the drill piping A and shaft 1 and parts turn,- ing therewith, with the hoist line slightly cased oil as mentioned, the mandrel will not need to turn with relation. to the segments 7, as explained, so that there will be no errcessive friction or frictional grip to overcome or break. Further, throughout such release operation, the weight oi the string of drill piping A will be exerted through lower stop upon the upper end or": the mandrel 10, tending to :torce it down out of wedging position between said segments 7, and the only frictional coi'itactwill be be tween the upper end 0t said. mandrel 10 and the opposed :lace oil the lower collar or stop 3, which prevents upward axial movement of the mandrel. with relation to the shaft 1, so preventing said mandrel from being moved axially upward with said, segments 7 due to the frictional grip of the latter, as syn-end, on said mandrel, the cmnblnation resulting in positively llOltfllllfg: the mandrel anu-iinst up "ard axial n'lovement while positively moving said segments 7 in an axial direction upward away troin said. mandrel.
A ll couplings or scrm -tln'ead connections throughout are right-haml scrcw-threads so that rotation to the right serves to tighten up all couplings and avoids all risk oi. unscrewing at any point of connection.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent is:
1. A spear comprising a shaft provided with a stop, and a gripping element having an internally screw-threaded solid ring portion and formed with gripping means dependingtherefrom, in. combination with an externally screw-thread ed actuating; nut slidably mounted on said shaft to turn therewith and engaging with its thread in the corresponding thread in said ring portion and adapted to rest upon said stop and by rotation with said shaft to cause said ring and gripping elements to move axially upward with relation to said stop.
2. A spear comprising a shaft provided with a stop, and an internally screw-thread ed ring portion formed with gripping means integral therewith and depending therefrom, in combination with an externally screwthreaded actuating nut slidably mounted on said shaft to turn therewith and engaging with its thread in the corresponding thread in said ring portion and adapted to rest upon said stop and by rotation to cause said ring and gripping means to move axially upward with relation to said stop and shaft.
8. A spear comprising a shaft provided. with a stop, and an internally screw-threaded ring formed with integral gripping means depending therefrom, in combination with an externally screw-threaded actuating nut feathered to said shaft to turn therewith and slidable thereon and engaging with its thread in the corresponding thread in said ring and adapted to rest upon said stop and by rotation to cause said ring and gripping means to move axially with relation to said stop and shaft.
-l-. A spear comprising a hollow shaft provided with an external stop, and an internally screw-threaded ring formed with integral depending gripping means, in combination with an externally screw-threaded actuating nut feathered to said shaft to turn therewith and slidable thereon and engaging with its thread in the corresponding thread in said ring and adapted to rest upon said stop and by rotation to cause said ring and gripping means to move axially with relation to said shaft.
5. A spear comprising a shaft provided with an annular stop shoulder, in combination with an upwardly presented conical mandrel loosely mounted on said shaft in such manner as to permit relative rotary movement between said shaft and mandrel, and a retaining element applied to said shaft below said mandrel to retain said mandrel thereon, said stop and retaining element limiting movement of said mandrel axially of said shaft.
6. A spear comprising a shaft, an externally screw-threaded nut slidably mounted on said shaft to turn therewith, an internally screw-threaded ring engaged internally by said nut and formed with depending gripping segments, and means for limiting the downward movement of said nut axially of said shaft, in combination with an upwardly presented conical mandrel mounted on said shaft to permit relative rotary 1novc ment freely between said shaft and mandrel and adapted to be engaged by the cooperating inner faces of said segments and to spread said segments radially as said shaft and mandrel are moved axially upward with relation to said nut, ring and segments, and means carried by said shaft for limiting the axially upward movement of said mandrel with relation to said shaft.
