The lower or main section I4 of the body is threadedly connected with the upper section I3 at IB. The lower end of the section I3 forms downwardly facing shoulders I9' in the body. The lower end part of the section I4 65 is shaped to effectively pass over or onto the casing C, having a rounded lower end and upwardly and inwardly converging inner walls 20. An upwardly facing annular shoulder 2| is provided on the inner wall of the lower body section I4 at the upper end of, the converging wall 20. The shoulder 2| is inclined downwardly and inwardly. The lower body section I4 is preferably comparatively long, as illustrated throughout the drawings, and the major portion of its opening 22 extending from the shoulder I9 to the shoulder 2| is larger in diameter than the casing C so that it is adapted to carry the packing means II and the gripping means I2. It is to be noted that the body I and the other parts of the device are proportioned so that the device is adapted to connect two lengths or sections of casing of the same diameter.
The packing means II is provided to pack between the casing C in the well and the body I0. The packing means II includes a multiplicity of packing rings 23 arranged in the body opening 22 above the shoulder 2|. The packing rings 23 are superimposed ,or arranged one on the other, and their abutting ends 24 areinclined. In the particular case illustrated the cooperating or abutting ends 24 downwardly and inwardly. The outer ends of the uppermost and lowermost packing rings 23 are iiat and normal to the longitudinal axis of the tool. The packing rings 23 are of the same respective internal and external diameters, and the opening formed by thel multiplicity of packing rings 23 is initially sufficiently large in diameter to pass the casing C with suitable clearance, as illustrated in Fig. 2 of the drawings. In accordance with the invention, the packing rings 23 are formed of lead or its substitutes. In being formed of lead, or the like, the packing rings 23 are lcapable of making a very tight and effective seal between the casing C and the inner wall o f the body I0, and are not as soft and subject to undesirable distortion and flowing' as rubber or rubber compositions. f
It is a feature of the invention that rings 26 of steel, or the like, are arranged in the body opening 22 at the opposite ends of the assembly of packing rings 23. The rings 26 act as packing glands as they operate to retain or hold Athe packing in place. The rings 26 at the opposite endsof the assembly of packing rings 23 prevent the material of which the packing rings are formedA Afrom being pressed or forced out from between them. 'I'he rings 26 are split and have lapped parts 2'I at their cuts or splits.'` 'I'he lapped parts 2'I are related so that the rings 26 are capable of substantial expansion and contraction. The ends or end faces of the rings 26 engaging the exposed ends of the uppermost and lowermost packing rings 23 are preferably ilat and normal. The upper end 28 of the upper ring 26 is inclined downwardly and outwardly for cooperating with an element of the gripping means I2 as will be subsequently described. 'I'he lower end 29 of the lower ring 26 is inclined downwardly and inwardly to cooperate with the correspondingly inclined body shoulder 2 I. The gland rings 26 are initially of substantially the same internal and external diameters as the packing rings 23. 'Ihe rings 26 are adapted to be contracted onto the casing C to grip the casing and prevent'the packing 23 from being forced or owedlongitudinally ofthe casing.
The gripping means I2 is adapted'to grip the casing C and to provide for the compression or actuation of the packing means II when an upof the packing rings 23 are inclined well.
strain is taken and maintained on the casing. The gripping means I2 includes a sleeve or tubular spider 30, and a slip or gripping member 3| in the spider. The spider 3U is shiftable or slidable longitudinally in the body opening 22 and normally or initially has limited longitudinal movement in the body between the shoulder I 6 and the upper ring 26. The lower end 32 of the spider 30 is adapted to cooperate with the upper end 28 of the upper ring, being of the same pitch or inclination as the face 28. The spider 30 is preferably comparatively long, and the walls of its opening 35 are downwardly and inwardly convergent, as illustrated throughout the drawings.
The slip or gripping member 3| is a tubular element arranged within the spider 30. The gripping member 3| is operated or contracted upon upward movement of the spider 30 to' tightly grip the casing C. The exterior or periphery of the gripping member 3| is tapered or inclined downwardly and inwardly to have sliding cooperation with the interior of the spider 30. A plurality of circumferential ridges or teeth 38 is provided on the interior of the gripping member 3| to bite Vinto or grip the casing. In accordance with the invention,.the gripping member 3| is longitudinally split to be contractible upon upward movement of the spider 30 relative to the gripping member. Meshing or overlapping parts 4D are provided at the longitudinal split in the gripping member 3| to prevent the longitudinal distortion of the gripping member. The gripping member 3| is adapted t0 pass downwardly around the casing C when the tool is run onto the casing, and its ment-with respect to the body IU is limited by the downwardly facing shoulder I9.
'I'he upper end portion of the casing C remaining in the well is preferably cleaned olf or smoothed 01T by suitable tools prior tothe run-` ning of the new or replacement casing into the 'Ihistreatment of the casing C prepares it for reception in the casing bowl. The casing bowl of the invention vis adapted to be attached to the lower end of the new or replacement casing R, and is adapted to be run into the well with its parts in the positions illustrated in Fig. 1 of the drawings. Upon the device reaching the upper end of the casing C, the guiding lower portion of the body I0 guids the body onto the casing C. The packing rings 23 and the'gland or retaining `rings 26 may pass over the casing C -With suitable clearance, while the gripping member may yieldingly contact with the casing C so that it is held up against the shoulder I9 as the device passes downwardly over the casing C. When the new or replacement casing R has been lowered until the shoulder I6 engages the upper end of the casing C, an up pull or strain may be put on the casing R to actuate the casing bowl. The upward mvement of the body III on the lower end of the casing R, of course, results in corresponding upward movement ol.' the spider shoulder 2| through the packing means II. The cooperating inclined surfaces of the spider 30 and gripping member 3| cause the gripping member to be tightly contracted into gripping and holding engagement/with the casing C as the spider 30 moves upwardly relative to the gripping member.
