This invention relates to an elevator.
- An object of the invention is to provide apparatus of the character described for supporting and-handling the packing unit of a blowout preventer.
' The invention herein described constitutes certain improvements over that type of elevator described in our co-pending application led September 26, 1933, under Serial No. 691,020.
Another object of the'invention is to provide an elevator whereby the packing unit of a blowout preventer may be maintained suspended in position to be readily applied to a pipe in a well, and which will permit the packing unit, when applied to the pipe, to descend with the pipe into position within the casing head of the well casing.
A further object of the invention is to provide an elevator oi the character described which l may be readily manipulated by the operator from the derrick floor to carry the packing unit into position around said pipe, and the invention also includes means for automatically causing the packing unit to close about the pipe when the packing unit is so swung into active position.
The invention also comprehends a novel combination including power means for manipulating the elevator to swing the packing unit into `active or inactive position.
With the above and other objects in `view, the invention has particular relation to certain novel features of construction, operation, and arrangement of parts, an example of which is given in this specification and illustrated in the accompanying drawings wherein:
Figure v1 shows a plan view of` the blowout preventer, showing elevator associated therewith and partly in section.
Figure 2 shows a side elevation thereof partly in; section.
Figure 3 shows a cross sectional view, taken on the line 3-3 of Figure 2.
Figure t shows a front section.
Figure 5 shows a fragmentary side elevation of a drilling apparatus, showing the elevator applied to the casing head,
Figure 6 shows a plan View of the elevator and blowout preventer, embodying a power cylinder for manipulating the elevator.
Figure 'l shows an enlarged plan view of the form shown in Figure 6 partly in' section, and
Figure 8 shows a front elevation thereof. it Referring now more particularly to the drawelevation partly in (Civ 16S-14) ings, wherein like numerals of reference designate the same parts in each of the iigures, the numeral 1 designates a well casing having the casing head 2 secured to the upper end thereof and provided with a downwardly tapering seat 5 3. The casing head has a laterally tapped hole beneath said seat for the connection of a pipe 4 thereto through which the fluid in the well may be discharged, or through which iiuid under pressure may be forced in the well'as desired. 10
At its upper end, the seat 3 is outwardly flared as at 5, and beneath said flared portion the casing head has an annular external groove 6.
There is a packing unit or.assernbly formed of arcuate confronting segments indicated gen- 15 erally in Figures 1, 6 and 'I by the numerals 7,
'7. Each .segment is composed of an arcuate metallic anchor 8, and an arcuate packing ring 9, secured to the under side of said anchor. K
The anchors 8 are hinged together at one 20 side by means of the hinge` plate 10, whose ends are seated in the slots 11 at the adjacent ends of said anchor and pinned in place by the pins 12.
At the opposite slide of the packing unit there is a latch, 13, h fok-like in form, one end of 25 which is pivoted n the slot 1d in one of said anchors, and whose hooked end is adapted toengage a pin 15 ex riding through a slot 16 in the adjacent end o the other anchor. The packing unit is so aped that when latched 30 around the drill stem, or other inner pipe, it will completely surround said inner pipe and the outer surface of the packing 9 is' tapered to conform' to the shape of, and to iit closely within the seat 3. l 35 Embedded within the packing 9, of each segment, there is a rigid reinforcing member 17, preferably formed of metal, and upstanding from thisreinforcing member are the anchor rods 18, 18, which extend up through the an. 40 chors 8 above, and whose upper ends are threaded to receive the nuts 19 whereby the packing may be maintained in place. Each segment? has the handle 20, by means of which the packing unitsmay be handled.
The upper ends of the anchors 8 of the packing unit are reduced, forming an annular external shoulder 21 all the way around said unit, and beneath said shoulder the anchors 8 have the annular tapering face 22, shaped to t to the form of, and to seat closely into the flared up`\` per end 5 of the seat 3.
The casing head 2 will usually be located in the cellar 23 beneath the oor 24 of the derrick 25, and when it may be desired to set the packl ing unit in the casing head, the segments of the packing unit may be closed around the inner pipe 26 in the manner hereinafter described, and latched and the inner pipe then lowered and the packing unit will be carried downwardly into the casing'head and seated therein with the packing seated in the seat 3 and completely closing the space between the inner pipe 26 and the casing head, and with the 'tapering face 22 seated on the ilared portion 5 of the seat 3.
'Ihere are the arcuate clamps 27, 27, which are hinged together at one side by the hinge pin 28 formed on the lower end of the upstanding post 29, said hinge pin passing also through the laterally extending lug 30 formed integrally with the casing head 2, whereby the clamps 27, 27, are supported hingedly on the casing head. The pin 28 is, secured in place by a suitable nut 31 screwed on to the lower end thereof.
At their other ends the clamps 27 have the grips 32, 32 and parallel outwardly projecting extensions 33, 33, which are lconnected by means of a pull spring 34. Between the extensions 33,
the clamps 27 have the vinter-meshing lugs 35 provided with the pin bearings 36 which register when the clamps are secured around the casing head, and through which a pin 37 may be inserted to hold the clamps in secure position. This pin 37 may be secured against loss by means of a cable or other flexible tie member 38., Each clamp member has an inside rib 37' to fit into the groove 6, and also has an inside groove 39 to receive an external annular Yrib 40 on the casing head 2 and the external shoulder 21 o1' the anchors 8 project into this groove 39, whereby the clamp members and the packing unit are secured in place on the casing head.
The clamps 27 are ared upwardly, as at 41, and when the packing unit is fastened around the pipe 26, and the pipe is lowered, the packing unit will enter between the clamps 27, and
the tapering faces 22 will contact with the correspondingly flared portion 41 of said clamps, and
the packing unit will be guided into the casing' head, and the clamps 27 willbe spread apart, the spring 34 yielding to permit this, and when the shoulder 21 registers with the groove 39,1said clamps will be drawn together with ,the said spring 34 causing the upper side of the `groove 39"to engage over the shoulders 21 whereby the packing unit will be locked in place, and the pin 27 may then be inserted through thebearing 36 to secure said clamps against spreading whereby the packing unit will be secured in place against danger of displacement by the internal well pressure. ,f
It should be noted that the shoulders 42 torming the upper side of the groove 39, engage over the shoulders 21 of the packing unit at ydiametrically opposite sides of the packing unit only, as shown in Figure 1, that is to say, at opposite points approximately midway between the hinged ends of the clamps 27 and the opposite ends thereof,` so that when it is desired to release the packing unit, the pin 37 may be withdrawn and the grips 32 pulled apart until the shoulders 21 are cleared by the shoulders 42 to the end that the clamps 27 need only bey lower bearings 44, 45, which receive the uprightA post 29. The lower bearing 45, has an inwardly projecting key, 46, which projects into a vertical keyway, 47, in the post 29 and the upper end of said keyway terminates in an annular,` external groove 48 around the post.v A pair of supporting links 49, 49, are pivoted at one end to the arm 43, and their other ends have bearings to receive the upper ends oi? the anchor rods 18 on opposite sides of the hinge plate 10 in the adjacent side of the packing unit, and these links are retained on said rods by the corresponding nuts 19.
In operation, when it is desired to release and elevate the packing unit, ,the pin 37 may be removed and the clamp members opened sufciently to release the shoulders A42 from the shoulders 21,l as illustrated in Figure 6, and the packing unit, being released, may be manually elevated, the key 46 moving along the keyway 47, and when said key reaches the groove 48, the latch 13 may be released andthe sections of the packing unit will be swung open by the pull springs 49', 49', attached at their outer ends to the arm 43 and at their inner ends to the respective links 49 and the arm 43, together with the packing unit, may be swung around carrying said key out oflalignment with the keyway, and the key will be supported in the groove '48, and the packing unit will be held supported and maintained in readiness to be againapplied to the pipe and seated and secured in the casing head in case of an impending blowout.
A cable 50 is attached at 'one end to the free end of the arm 43, and this cable passes up through the derrick oor around the pulley 51. and over the pulleys 52,53 and 5,4 in the derrick, with its free end accessible to the opera.- tor. In case it is desired to apply the packing unit to the pipe 26, the operator may exert a pull on vthe cable 50, and the arm 43 will thereby be swung inwardly toward thepipe 26, carrying the sections of the packing unit about said pipe 26. The hinged ends of the anchors 8 have `the overlapping, finger-like, extensions 55, 55,
move around the groove 48 into alignment with the keyway 47 and when the pipe is then lowered, said unit will move downwardly with it until the unit seats within the casing seat, as hereinabove explained the key 46 moving downwardly in the keyway 47. When so seated, the spring 34 will cause the rib 37 to seat in groove 6, and the shoulders 42 to engage over the shoulders 21 to maintain the packing unit in place, and the pin 37 may then be reinserted through the bearings 36 to lock the clamps 27 against spreading.
As shown in Figures 6. 7 and 8 a power jack is provided for manipulating the arm 43. This jack comprises a cylinder 56 having a piston 57 therein and attached to a piston rod 58 whose outer end is connected to the arm 43. Steam lines 59, 59 enter opposite ends of the cylinder to supply' and relieve steam or the like into and from said cylinder* to actuate the piston. The arm 43 may thus be manipulated by suitably controlling the application of steam to said cylinder. One end of the cylinder has a bearing which is vertically slidable on the post 61 which is anchored to the bracket 62 extending out laterally from the casing head. The post 61 has a stop 63 to support said cylinder. As the arm 43 and packingunit move up and down the cylinder may move with them the lines 59 being iiexible for this purpose.
