This invention relates to well drilling tools and particularly pertains to a vibrating well jar.
Various types of well jars are provided to be manipulated in the event that the portion of drill string below the well jar becomes lodged in the well bore and cannot bereadily withdrawn. In these structures means are provided to maintain the members producing a jarring blow in 9. normally locked position, and thereafter releasing these members'to produce violent impact. The magnitude of this impact is controlled from above ground and in most instances requires that the entire drill string from the point of lodgement to a point above the ground to and'including the cable, derrick and draw works shall be placed under strain commensurate in some direct degree with the blow required. This often places excessive strain upon weakened parts or joints of the drill string, may pull in the derrick or weaken the cable, and due to the violence of the jarring action may causeother complications in addition to having the tool stick in the well bore. It is the object of the present invention, therefore, to provide a well jar which does not depend upon excessive tension or'torsion strains in the entire well rig and drill string to dislodge the fastened tool or the drill string connected therewith, but utilizes the tension set up in the drill string to the slips of the rotary table only to exert a constant tensile strain upon the fish and then sets up vibration in the entire drill string structure by rotation of the drill string whereby vibration of a predetermined magnitude may be created in the jar and the length of drill string therebeneath and the tool dislodged thereby.
- The present invention contemplates the provision of a well jarring tool adapted to be interposed between lengths oi drill stem, which tool has a casing forming a continuous housing for the well jar, and momentum means therein for setting up a vibration within the well jar housing and the drill string as the drill string is rotated.
- The invention is illustrated by way of example in the accompanying drawing in which:
Figure 1 is a view in central longitudinalsection indicating a well Jar with which the present invention is concerned and further disclosing fragmentary portions of drill string sections between which the jar is interposed.
Fig. 2 is a view in transverse section through the tool as seen on the line 22 of Fig. l, and showing the upper portion of the interlocking elements.
Fig. 3 is a view in elevation as seen on the line 3-3 of Fig. 2 and discloses the developed circular surface of the housing member and the lock passageways therein.
Fig. 4 is a view in section and elevation showing the jarring cams and lock means holding them in their inoperative relation to each other. 5
Fig. 5 is a-view in transverse section as seen. on the line 55 of Fig. 1, showing the splined connection between the hammer and the housing of the jar.
Referring more particularly to the drawing, I0 10 indicates the lower end of an. upper drill string .section carrying a box to receive a pin H of a mandrel i2. This mandrel extends downwardly and is formed with a centralfluid passageway l3 therethrough. At the lower end of the mandrel 15 is a threaded counterbore i4 receiving a tubular wash pipe H which extends through a lower sub I 5 threaded to the upper end of a lower drill string section H. A suitable packing gland i8 packs the lower end of the wash pipe 55 so that the 20 pipe may reciprocate therethrough in a manner to be hereinafter described without leakage of fluid-therearound. The lower sub i6 is threaded at its upper end to a tubular well jar housing l9v which housing is threaded at its upper end to a 25 lock and packing sleeve 20 through which the mandrel l2 extends. A counterbore at the upper end of the sleeve 20 receives packing 2| held in place by a packing gland 22 which is threaded into the mouth of the counterbore. Thus it will so be seen that the mandrel l2 and its wash pipe may reciprocate longitudinally through an outer struce ture which includes the packing sleeve 20, the housing is, and the lower sub it. These parts are locked, however, against this longitudinal move- 35 ment by a key 23 which is carried by the mandrel l2 and normally rests in an offset groove 24 formed in the inner face of the lock and packing sleeve 20, as more particularly shown in Fig. 3 of the drawing. A longitudinal groove 25 leads 4o upwardly from the offset recess 24 and communicates with an annular recess 26 which circumscribes the mandrel completely and makes it possible for rotation of the mandrel to take place in producing a vibrating action to be hereinafter 45 described. Adjacent to the lower end of the mandrel i2 there is formed an enlarged cylindrical portion 21 which provides a shoulder 28 cooperating with a shoulder 29 at the end of a counterbore 30 formed in the lock and pack- 50 ing sleeve 20. interposed between these shoulders is a pair of anti-friction bearing elements 3! and 32 for a purpose to be hereinafter described. Formed on the end of the enlarged portion 21 of the mandrel I2 is a plurality of vibrating cams ll. 55
These cams are characterized as extending contr'ally disposed washpipe l5. It is held in its uppermost position by an expansion spring 31 which is disposed beneath it, and maintained under a desired tension by a washer 38 carried on the washpipe l5, and a lock nut 39 holding the washer in an adjusted position. The upper end of the hammer is formed with cam members 33 which are complementary to the cam members 33 formed on the end of the mandrel l2. These cam members also have longitudinal shoulders 35' which may abut against the shoulders 33 of the cam members on the mandrel and inclined faces 34 which register with and move against similar faces 34 of the mandrel. An end shoulder 40 is formed on the upper end of the hammer 36 and engages an anvil face 4| formed on the lower end of the lock and packing sleeve 20. Impact between the shoulders 10 and M imparts a vibrating and jarring motion to the entire well jar and drill string. Attention is directed to the fact that normally there is a clearance space as indicated at 42 between the faces 34 and 34 of the vibrating cams so that it will be insured that the jarring blows will be impartedfrom the hammer 36 to the lock and packing sleeve 20 through faces 40 and ti, and thence to the housing 59 and through the sub to the lower drill string section. The hammer 33 is mounted for reciprocation within the housing l9 and held against rotation by a key '33 extending radially from the hammer and engaging a longitudinally extending spline 4B in the inner wall face of the housing l 0.
r In operation of the present invention the well jar is assembled as shown in the drawing and interposed between sections of drill string Iii and E1. The jar is set with the nut 39 and the washer 38 creating a desired amount of compression upon spring 31 and with thei lock key 23 moved downwardly and into the offset .recess 26 of the locking and packing sleeve 23. The jar is lowered into the hole and the drilling operations are continued in the usual manner with rotation of the drill string in a clockwise direction. The engagement of the key 23 with the wall of the recess 24% when the mandrel is rotating in a clockwise direction will act to drive the housing 50 and the lower drill string section. At this time the shoulders 23 and 23' of the vibrating cams 33 and 33' will be locked against each other to prevent relative rotation. When it is desired to dislodge the drill string or the, tools carried thereby the drill string is. rotated and key 23 is moved in counterclockwise direction until it is in longitudinal alignment with the groove 25, after which it is raised to register with the annular groove 23. When the key 23 is released from the recess 24! and is raised into the annular recess 2d, the mandrel l2 and the'hammer 26 will simultaneously raise. This will also bring the anti-friction bearing elements 3i and 32 into register sothat when the drill string is placed under tension it will be possible for the mandrel i2 and the housing it to rotate freely with relation to each other. The draw works is then operated to put the drill string under a desired tension. In
,shoulders 35 and 35' come' to register.
doing this the drill string will be stretched.
While thus stretched and under tensile strain, it
is set with relation to a rotary table 52 by slips 53. The rotary table is then rotated at a desired speed and the upper length I 0 of drill string will be rotated in unison therewith while maintained under the set amount of tension. The rotation of the upper drill string and the mandrel l2 may then be continued in a clockwise direction and as the inclined faces 34 and 34' of the cams ride over each other the hammer 36 will be alternately moved downwardly against the compression of the spring 31 and then suddenly released whenthe vertical The result will be that the expansion of spring 31 will cause a violent upward motion of the hammer 36 to deliver a'blow from the impact face 40 to the anvil 4!. In practice a blow of 24000 lbs. has
been used satisfactorily. The depth of the vibrating cams is such as to cause a space 42 to occur between the cams when the impact face 40 is in engagement with the anvil face 4!; the vibrating blow will be delivered directly to the sleeve 20 and transmitted therethrough to the housing l9 and the drill string section attached thereto and suspended therefrom. It will be evident that rotation of the upper drill string section will control the vibrating action, and that the rapidity of this action will be in direct proportion to the speed at which the upper drill string section is rotated. During this vibrating action the drill rig and draw works are completely without strain since tension is held in the drill string by the slips and rotary table. It will be apparent that as the vibration takes place and the fish is gradually loosened, the drill string will contract as tension is relieved and the stretch leaves the string. It will also be noted that in the event tension is not imposed upon the upper drill string section the vibrating force will be the force predetermined when the compression of spring 31 was established by adjustment of the nut 33 before the tool was lowered into the well, and that if desired tension is required, this may be imposed upon the drill string without in any wise interfering with the vibrating operation obtained.
It will thus be seen that the structure here disclosed is simple in construction and operation, is not'subject to violent shock which might prove damaging to it, and may be readily operated to produce a far greater number of vibrating impulses than is possible with the ordinary well jar. While I have shown the preferred form of my invention, as now known to me, it will be understood that varlous changes might be made in the combination, construction, and arrangement of parts by those skilled-in the art, without departing from the spirit of the invention as claimed.
