areadil'y lowered through a well easing in a contracted position into the well hole and 'then expanded into .an operative roaming position @ther objects and advantages will be apto parent in the following specification, referenee being had to the accompanying drawing iorrning a part thereof, in which:
l is a vertical section through a portion ot an oil well with a easing in the upper l end, the reaming tool being illustrated in connection with a drilling bit.
Fig. 2 is a view similar to Fig. l showing the bit replaced with the reaxner expanding element in an inoperative position being lowlll ered through the easing.
L its su.
IF 3 is a view similar to the foregoing showing the reanier lowered below the easing with the expanding element in an operative position.
lllig. l is a side elevation oit the reamer eX- panding element.
ltlig. 5 is a cross section through the expanding element talren on line 5-5 ot' Fig. l.
ln an embodiment ol the invention disl closed herein9 designates a cylindrical body member having the usual central water Course il termed therein, provided on its upper end with the usual tapered threaded r soehet l tor the reception ot the threaded JU pin 8 seeuredto the lower end of the drill tube 9. The body member 5 is provided 1n its cylindrical wall with a rectangular recess lll tor the reception of a roaming tool ll, that is rotatably mounted on shaft 12 whose ends are journalled in the end walls 13 and ll ot the recess7 see llig. 23; tool 1l is substantially cylindrical in torni tapering trom its central uortion to its ends, and provided on oe with cutting teeth l5 of any pret'erred lernt llroin an inspection ot the ligures olf the drawing, it will be seen that the 1 cutting or reamin.; tool is disposed at an angle to the longitudinal airis ot the body n1ernto in that the cutter will progreslll". lterial ll'o. lllthlll.
sively increase the diameter ot the hole as the tool descends downwardly.
ln llig. l the tool is illustrated in connection with a drilling bit ot the lish tail?3 type for roaming the well hole simultaneously with the drilling operation, while the tool may be satisfactorily employed in this manner oftentimes it inay be found to be advantageous to lirst drill the well and then enlarge the diameter of the hole, and to this end in Figs. 2 and 3 is illustrated a torni of tool in which a hydraulically operated bearing shoe is substituted for the drill bit.
In this form a cylindrical body member is employed provided on its upper end with a tapered threaded attachment pin 2l, and the usual central water-course 22. The lower end of member 2O is bevelled as at 23 from a point to one side ot the vertical axis upwardly and outwardly and is provided with dove-'tail tongue 2t that engages a correspending groove formed in the contacting inclinedv face ot a bearing shoe 26. rlhe tongue 24 extends upwardly and terminates just below a transversely disposed bore 2l" that connects with the bottom of the water course 22 that registers with the eourse 6 ot member 5, and the groove 25 in the shoe tei minates short ot the upper end to 'form an abutment 28 for moving the shoe into an operative position as will be more tully explained hereinafter.
|The outer vertical. tace of the shoe is pro vided with a plurality of transversely disu posed grooves or water courses 29 tor preventing any stielring action ot the shoe dur-= ing the operation ot the tool.
Secured to the upper end ot the inclined or bevelled tace ot member 20 in any suitable manner is a stop 30 desi ned to limit the upward ino-vement ol the s oe and to bring the transverse bore 3l ot the shoe into register with the transverse here 27 leading trom the water course 22 when the shoe is in operative position.
Should it be lound desirable to enlarge the diameter ot the well to permit the lowering ot the string ot easing the tool can he readily lowered through the easing as the shoe 26 is retraeted to its lowerrnost position and will dll titi
form no impediment to the passage of the tool therethrough (see Fig. 2). When the tool is disposed beyond the lower end of the casing the pumps (not shown) are put into operation to force water downwardly through the central water course, the pressure of the water against the abutment 28 raising the shoe to the position shown in Fig. 2, the outer face ofthe shoe extending beyond the peripheral face of the member 20, thereby forcing the cutter 15 into engagement with the wall of the well. When in this position it will be apparent that on a rota-tion of the tool that the cutter will be forced into engagement with the wall of the well and will readily and quickly ream the same to the required diameter. As soon as the reaming is completed, the water pressure is relieved, whereupon the shoe will slide back into its normal inoperative position, and the tool may then be Withdrawn from the Well.
When the shoe is moved to an operative position the bore of the shoe will be brought into register with the central water course of the body member, thus insuring an adequate supply of water for lubrication and washing away of the well cuttings. Further the shoe will be maintained in operative position during the rotation of the reaming tool by the fluid pressure acting against the abutment.
Vhat I claim is:
