One of the portions 54 of the crank shaft 44 has a polygonal part 58 projecting outwardly from the body of the reservoir 13 through an opening 55. The projecting part 58 of the crank shaft is adapted to be engaged by the operating member 45. The member 45. is provided at its end with a polygonal socket 59 to receive the polygonal part 58. The member 45 is detachY able from the part 58. The member 45 is pref-- erably made sufficiently long to extend from an end of the pipe P to the part 58.
The means 15 for releasing the pressure in the cylinder 21 includes a Valve 60 operable to control the passage of fluid through a passage 61 in the base 10. The passage 61 extends between or communicates with the cylinder 21 and the reservoir 13. The valve 60 may be in the nature of a needle valve having a pointed inner end adapted to cooperate with a suitable seat formed in the passage 61. The body or stem of the valve is screw threaded into an opening 67 in an end of the base 10 and projects outwardly from the base'. Y The stem of the valve 60preferably projects from the same end of the base 10 as the part 58 of crank shaft. The projecting portion ofthe valve 60 has a transverse pin 62 extending through it and projecting from its opposite sides. 'Ihe pin 62 is adapted to be engaged by a control rod 63 for operating the valve. The rod 63 is forked at its end to cooperate with the pin 62 to rotate the valve 60. The
control rod 63 is made sufciently long to ber 45 may be rotated to operate the pump 40. The pump 40 supplys fluid under pressure to the cylinder 21, to operate the plunger 22 outwardly. .It will be seen that the shoe 12 may be forced into pressure engagement with the. interior of the pipe to restore the pipe to its normal configuration. Vhen it is desired to release the pressure from the cylinder 21, the control rod 63 may be rotated to unseat the valve 60 to allow Huid toflow through the passage 61 from the cylinder 21 The screw and valve may be replaced when i lowing claims.
