Abstract

The disclosure relates to pliers and more particularly to pliers for crimping two or more pieces of copper tubing together prior to their being permanently joined by brazing, soldering or the like. A die containing spring-loaded pins rotates within a cammed ring in the head of the pliers. As the die rotates, the pins force a crimp on tubing held within the pliers.

Fuel Rod Fission Gas Crimping Arrangement and Method

Patent Kasik, J. E.; Dennison, D. K.; Qurnell, F. D.

An arrangement for crimping a malleable sleeve over a hole in a punctured nuclear fuel rod in order to prevent the escape of fission gases into the external environment. The arrangement operates underwater and includes jaws for crimping the sleeve onto the fuel rod, which are operated by a hydraulic cylinder. The jaws crimp circumferential sealing ridges onto the inner surface of the sleeve, which bear against the fuel rod.
Crimping

Patent Hornak, L.P.

This patent describes the replacement of an old split-pin assembly of the guide tube of a nuclear reactor by a new split-pin assembly. The new split-pin assembly includes a new split pin and a new nut securing the new split pin to the guide tube. The new nut has a locking cap to be crimped to the new split pin. The new split-pin assembly is positioned to be processed. A method of crimping the locking cap to the new split pin, is practiced with a crimping mechanism and a support for supporting the crimping mechanism. The support is in retractedmore »« less
Method of completing wells in which the lower tubing is suspended from a tubing hanger below the wellhead and upper removable tubing extends between the wellhead and tubing hanger

Patent James, H.J.; Young, C.R.

A method of and apparatus are disclosed for treating or completing wells to provide surface controlled subsurface safety systems in the wells , whether at the time of original completion or when the well is reworked or reequipped. A method and apparatus is provided for installing receptacles at the upper ends of one or more lower well flow conductors left in place in the well below the surface for receiving the lower ends of corresponding upper flow conductor sections having surface controlled subsurface safety valves connected therein for controlling undesired flow from the well through said lower flow conductors inmore »« less
Method of and apparatus for positioning and correlating the end of remedial tubing in relation to the lower end of production tubing in a subterranean well

Patent Wetzel, R.J.

A method and apparatus are described for positioning and correlating the location of the end of remedial operation tubing in relation to the lower end of production tubing in an oil or gas well. The locating means are hydraulically activated to contact the end of the production tubing, causing interference with subsequent upper movement of the apparatus. The device is useful in locating a zone to be treated by fracturing, acidizing, cementing, chemical injection, etc. (32 claims)
Method of detonating a perforating apparatus on a tubing including lowering one end of a pump and a firing head into the tubing

Patent Huber, K.B.; Edwards, A.G.; Hill, W.M.; ...

This patent describes a method of perforating a well. It comprises: tubing string and lowering the tubing string, including the perforating gun, into a wellbore; attaching a firing head to one end of a pipe section and a pump to the other end of the pipe section and lowering the one end of the pipe section, including the firing head, into the tubing string; and detonating the firing head, the perforating gun perforating the well in response to detonation of the firing head.
