    摘要: The invention relates to a cable swivel for connecting a cable or a retainer to a component, in particular a Kelly bar, which is rotatable relative to the cable or the retainer, with a stationary first swivel part which can be fastened on the cable or the retainer, and a rotatable second swivel part which is supported in a rotatable and axially fixed manner on the stationary first swivel part and can be connected to the component. Furthermore, in the case of the invention provision is made in that the rotatable second swivel part is of sleeve-shaped design with an axial passage and in that on the stationary first swivel part a connecting pin is designed which at least partially extends axially along the passage of the rotatable second swivel part.

    摘要: An apparatus in the form of an adapter for forming a connection comprising a first part adapted for coupling with a second part by a quick-release coupling formed by a first projection of the first part having an at least partial dovetail shape and a recess of the second part having an at least partial dovetail shape. An opening in the recess is adapted for receiving the projection in an axial direction. In other embodiments, the adapter is: (1) frictionally enhanced for engaging an internal portion of the drilling element; (2) includes a radial projection elongated in an axial direction for engaging the internal portion of the one drilling element; and/or (3) has a cutter for scoring an internal portion of the one drilling element upon being inserted therein and rotated. An adapter is also disclosed for use with a drill chuck, including for creating a “twist lock” connection.

    摘要: A rotation brake for stopping rotation of a spindle assembly on a horizontal directional drill. The rotation brake comprises a brake lock that is actuated by a cylinder and spring to interact with a non-rotating brake cap and a rotating pinion, thereby stopping rotation of the pinion. The brake lock is removed from the pinion by applying pressurized fluid to a cylinder such that a cylinder rod moves the brake lock out of a cavity between the brake cap and the pinion. Upon removing fluid pressure from the cylinder, a compressed spring moves the brake lock back to into the cavity, preventing rotation.

    摘要: A catch assembly is provided for a downhole motor assembly of a drilling system. The catch assembly may include a catch basket that may be coupled to a saver sub. The saver sub may be coupled to a stator tube housing a rotor of a downhole motor. The rotor knob may be coupled to the rotor and include a flange that may be positioned in the catch basket. The flange may be positioned uphole of an internal shoulder of the catch basket. Subsequent to a connection failure in or near the stator tube, the flange may engage the internal shoulder of the catch basket to prevent the rotor from falling downhole.

    摘要: A method and system for coupling a drive unit to a tool adapter includes joining a first plate to a second plate; stabbing a stabbing member of the first plate into a hollow of the second plate; and rotating a bar of the second plate from an open position to a closed position to secure the stabbing member in the hollow. An embodiment includes positioning the tool adapter below the drive unit; stabbing a coupling head into a coupling recess; moving a fixation ring vertically; and securing bolts of the drive unit in notches of the coupling head.
