Abstract
The present invention provides an apparatus (10) and method for transmitting torque to a downhole device. The apparatus (10) comprises a first part and a second part adapted for connection to the downhole device. The apparatus (10) also comprises an engagement means (100, 120). The first and second parts are connected together such that relative axial movement between the first and second parts is constrained on a helical path. The engagement means (100, 120) are arranged to rotationally connect the first and second parts to thereby transmit torque from the first part to the second part when a coupling point is reached on the helical path.
