ATTOENE V United States Patent 3,253,336 RQTARY PIPE CUTTING DEVlCE HAVHNG PlllE CLAMPING MEANS AND RATCHET FEED MEANS FOR THE CUTTER Cicero C. Brown, Brown Oil Tools line, Box 19236, Houston, Tex. Filed Oct. 17, 1963, Ser. No. 316,945 Claims. (Cl. 3098) This invention relates to pipe cutting devices and-more particularly to a device for severing pipe in place.
This invention is directed to a pipe cutting device which includes a segmented tubular body carrying a rotatable cutter support, the body and support being articulated for disposition about a pipe to be severed. The body carries radially movable pipe-gripping means for securing the body to a pipe. The cutter support carries one or more assemblies which include knife means arranged to be advanced automatically in response to rotations of the cutter support. A self-contained power-drive is mounted on the body for rotating the cutter support.
In many instances, particularly in the servicing of oil and gas wells, it becomes necessary to sever the surface casing of the well while the casing is in place, without removing the wellhead fittings normally mounted on the upper end of the casing. Such an instance occurs when due to subsidence of the earth overlying producing formations, it becomes necessary to lengthen the surface casing in order to permit elevation of the wellhead and the inner pipe strings to again place the latter in tension. It is desirable to effect the lengthening of the surface casing without having to dis-assemble or remove the Christmas tree and other wellhead equipment.
Accordingly, it is primary object of the present invention to provide an improved form of cutting tool by which pipe may be severed at some point intermediate its ends where equipment attached to the pipe precludes installing a cutting device over an end of the pipe.
An important object of this invention is to provide a rotary cutting device having a self-contained power unit for rotating the latter about a pipe, the device being constructed of complementary articulated segments which may be opened to permit placing the device around the pipe in preparation for cutting the pipe.
A further object is the provision of a rotary cutting device mountable about a pipe and provided with radially movable cutter knives adapted to be advanced toward the pipe in response to rotation of the cutterhead to increase the depth of the cut until the pipe is severed.
Still another object is the provision of a compact, highly eflicient power-driven rotary cutting tool for effectively severing a well casing in place in a well bore without removing the wellhead equipment.
Other and more specific objects and advantages of this invention will become more readily apparent from the following detailed description when read in conjunction with the accompanying drawing which illustrates a use ful embodiment in accordance with this invention.
In the drawing:
FIG. 1 is a perspective elevational view -of the assembled pipe cutting device in accordance with this invention;
FIG. 2 is a vertical sectional view taken generally along line 22 of FIG. 1;
FIG. 3 is a transverse sectional view taken generally along line 3-3 of FIG. 2;
FIG. 4 is an exploded perspective view of the pipe cutting device; and
FIG. 5 is a fragmentary view generally similar to FIG. 3 showing a modified form of cutter knife.
Referring to the drawing, the cutting device comprises a generally tubular body constructed of two comple- 3,2533% Patented May 31, E966 mentary semi-circular segments Ella and 10b provided with a hinge 1i connecting the segments along one side, the mating edges of the segments opposite the hinge means being provided with keeper lugs 12-12 having slots 13ll3 in the ends thereof to receive a locking bolt 14 by which the body may be locked in place about a pipe P (FIG. 4). The lower portion of body llll is provided on its inner wall with a plurality of recesses 15 (FIG. 2) in which are mounted pipe-griping slips 16 which are radially movable relative to the central axis of the body by means of adjusting screws 17 threaded into the back of the slips and extending through the wall of body 10. Recesses i5 and slips 16 are of complementary, non-round shape, so that radial movement of the slips may be eifected by rotation of the screws 17.
Mounted on the upper end of body it; is a bearing ring 18 rigidly secured to the body N, as by welding 19*. An annular recess 20 is cut into the exterior of body it beneath the lower end of bearing ring 18 and is adapted to receive a radially extending annular flange 21 which is fixedly secured in recess 2! by the welding beads 19, 19a, and 19b. The upper end portion of bearing ring 18 is provided on its exterior with an outwardly extending lip 22 defining an annular groove 23 in the exterior of the bearing ring. Mounted on the upper end of bearing ring 153 is an annular support plate 24 having a depending flange 25 (FIG. 2) terminating in an inwardly-turned lip 25a adapted to fit snugly in groove 23 of the bearing ring and defining a groove 25b adapted to snugly receive lip 22 of the bearing plate. With this arrangement, support plate 24 will be rotatably mounted on bearing ring 18 at a point spaced above flange 21. A ring gear 26, split diametrically, is mounted beneath support plate 24 surrounding flange 25, and is secured to support plate 24 by means of a plurality of studs 27 which extend downwardly through support plate 24 and are screwed into ring gear 26. It will be understood that bearing ring 18 will be split diametrically to align with the split in body ill, and that support plate 2d and ring gear 25 will be split diametrically, the splits in the ring gear and support plate 24- likewise being aligned with each other. A powered motor 30, such as a conventional hydraulic motor, is mounted on a bracket 31, rigidly secured to flange 2i, and extending laterally therefrom. Shaft 32 of motor 3% projects upwardly through bracket 21 and carries a pinion 33 which meshes with ring gear 26. With this arrangement, it will be seen that .by operation of motor 33, ring gear 26 and its supporting plate 24 will be rotated about the pipe when the structure is in place, as will appear subsequently.
Two cutterheads, each designated generally by the numeral 35, are mounted at diametrically opposite points on top of support plate 24. Each of the cutterheads 35 includes a base plate 36 adapted to be secured to the top surface of plate 24$ by some of the studs 27 which pass through slots 3!" provided to open out through the opposite side edges of the base plate 35. Generally, the base plates will be mounted to span the split between the ends of the segments of the support plate and the ring gear, so that upon removal of one of the bolts 27, from one end of each of the base plates, the support plate and ring gear may be opened to swing apart with the spreading of the segments of body Hi. When the segments are reclosed a stud 27 may then be re-inserted through the open slot 37 in order to bolt the base plate to the other segment of the support plate and the ring gear. A pair of parallel, spaced apart rails 38 are positioned on top of base plate 36 to provide a guideway for a cutter feed head 3 for guiding the latter radially of the device.
As best seen in FIGS. 2 and 3, the cutter feed head 39 has a knife 40 of conventional design, slidably mounted in 3 its forward end to project into the bore of the cutting device for engagement with pipe P. Knife 40 is shown mounted in knife holder 40a of generally rectangular cross-section, which is slidably mounted in a correspondingly shaped opening 4% in the forward end of feed head 39. Cutter head 39 is provided with a transverse slot 41 behind knife 40 in which is pivotally mounted a cam lever 42 pivotally supported at about its center on a pivot pin 43 extending vertically between the top and bottom walls of the cutter feed head. The cam lever 42 is provided near its opposite ends with elliptical openings 44 which receive limit pins 45 mounted vertically in slot 41 between the upper and lower walls thereof. Adjacent one side of cutter feed head 39 is an elongate slot 46 which opens to the outer or rear face of head 39. A clamping stud 47 extends downwardly through slot 46 and screws to base plate 36. The stud 47 and slot 46 cooperate to provide means for adjusting the radial position of cutter feed head 39 on the support plate, whereby the entire cutter head carrying knife 40 may be adjusted to accommodate the cutters to pipes of different diameters. Stud 47 carries a nut 48 which engages the top of head 39 and serves to clamp the cutter feed head 39 to support plate.
FIG. illustrates a suitable form of bevelling cutter knife, designated by the numeral 40c, the other parts of the cutter head and knife feed assembly being identical with those previously described. If desired, only a single cutter knife may be employed. Also, more than two knives may be used.
In operation, when it is desired to sever a pipe, such .as the surface casing of a well, on which the casinghead and Christmas tree are in place without. removing the latter, the cutter device herein described will be opened .-so that the structure, as a whole, may be placed about the pipe. To open the segments of the structure for placement about the pipe, one of the studs 27 will be removed from each of the base plates 36 to thereby permit the segments of support plate 24 and ring gear 26 to be opened, and thereupon body 10 may be opened about hinge 11. The thus opened structure, as seen in FIG. 4, will be placed about the pipe, bolts 14 will be secured to lugs 12 to lock the body segments about the pipe and the studs 27 will be replaced to clamp base plates 36 in position across the splits between the segments of the support plate and ring gear. Slips 16 will then be moved inwardly into tight gripping engagement with the surface of pipe P and the structure will then be securely locked to the pipe.
With the cutter device in place, power will be supplied to the motor 30, whereby rotation of ring gear 26 and support plate 24, carrying cutter feed heads 35, will be caused to take place. As the ring gear and support plate rotate, feed screws 51 will be actuated by repeated engagement of ratchet wheels 55 with finger 58 to feed cutters 40 into the pipe. This operation will be continued until the pipe has been severed, whereupon by removing one of the studs 27 from each of the cutter heads and releasing bolts 14 from clamping lugs 21, the'cutting device may be opened and removed about the pipe.
It will be understood that numerous changes and modi fications may be made in the details of the illustrative embodiment within the scope of the appended claims but without departing from the spirit of this invention.
