摘要: The present invention relates to downhole apparatus and particularly but not exclusively, to multi-cycle circulating subs used during downhole drilling operations. Apparatus is provided comprising a piston (42) slidably mounted in a body (4) between positions in which at least one aperture (40) in the body is opened and closed. Movement of the piston (42) is controlled by a pin (86) secured to one of the body and a control member, and a control groove (52) in which a portion of the pin is received formed in the other of the body and control member. An arrangement of elements (32, 76) respectively connected to the control member and body is such that, as the control member moves axially, increasing lengths of said elements locate adjacent one another so as to provide resistance to relative rotation in at least one direction of the control member and body. The relative rotation is rotation which presses the control member against the control groove. The present invention thereby provides means by which the risk of damage to the control pin is reduced.

摘要: Bypass valve for use in wellbores, particularly during the setting of hydraulic anchor packers, a bypass valve is provided with a body (4) incorporating a wall provided with at least one opening (20) and a piston (30) slidably mounted and having a longitudinal bore extending therethrough. The piston (30) is movable between a first position, in which the bore of the piston (30) is substantially isolated from the exterior of the body (4), and a second position in which a passage is provided from the bore of the piston (30) to the exterior of the body (4). Constraining means (42, 52) prevent movement of the piston (30) from the first to the second position. Overriding means are provided to permit movement to the second position.
