TL;DR: In this article, a method and apparatus for effecting the replacement of a cementing float shoe on the bottom of a well casing is described, where a new or replacement float shoe is run into the well casing on the end of a tubular workstring and seated on the locating shoulder with an external seal engaging the casing seal bore.
Abstract: A method and apparatus are provided for effecting the replacement of a cementing float shoe on the bottom of a well casing. A casing extension sleeve defines an upwardly facing locating shoulder and a seal bore adjacent such shoulder. A new or replacement float shoe is run into the well casing on the end of a tubular workstring and seated on the locating shoulder with an external seal engaging the casing seal bore. A plurality of radially expandable slip elements are provided in the replacement unit at a position above the external seal and such slips are retained in a retracted position by a retaining sleeve. Connection of the replacement cementing shoe to the workstring is achieved through a coupling sleeve having a threaded engagement with the replacement shoe and also being connected to the retaining sleeve. After seating of the replacement shoe, initial rotation of the workstring in a first direction will produce a partial unthreading of the coupling sleeve and an axial displacement of the retaining sleeve, thus freeing the slips to radially expand into engagement with the casing wall. Upward movement of the workstring will effect the setting of the slips. Further rotation of the tubular workstring will effect the complete disengagement of the coupling sleeve, permitting the workstring, coupling sleeve and retaining sleeve to be withdrawn from the well with the replacement cementing float shoe unit sealingly secured in the bottom of the well casing.

TL;DR: In this paper, a reinforcing sleeve encloses a bendable electrode tip assembly for a catheter, which is flexible enough to accommodate the bending movement desired for the tip assembly, and provides added strength and resistance against wear and tear during repeated bending operations.
Abstract: A reinforcing sleeve encloses a bendable electrode tip assembly for a catheter. The reinforcing sleeve is flexible enough to accommodate the bending movement desired for the electrode tip assembly. Still, the reinforcing sleeve provides added strength and resistance against wear and tear during repeated bending operations. The reinforcing sleeve also holds associated steering wires and electrical conducting wires in close intimate contact against the interior support wire of the electrode tip assembly. The intimate contact prevents kinking and chafing of the steering wires and electrical conducting wires during bending operations.

TL;DR: In this article, an impact system for a hydraulic deforming mechanism is employed to force the deforming tool against the pressure fluidizing solid which in turn deforms the sleeve outwardly against a well casing.
Abstract: Apparatus for sealing a perforated liner to a well casing. A cylindrical liner having a sleeve thereabout is associated with a deforming tool which is telescoped thereon and extends to the sleeve. A portion of the sleeve is spaced from the cylindrical liner to receive the deforming tool. A pressure fluidizing solid is located within the sleeve. An impacting system for a hydraulic deforming mechanism are employed to force the deforming tool against the pressure fluidizing solid which in turn deforms the sleeve outwardly against a well casing.

TL;DR: In this paper, a multilayer compression support sleeve construction is presented, which includes a thin polyurethane film coated on both surfaces with an adhesive, and a stretchable elastomeric polymer material is bonded to each of the adhesive surfaces.
Abstract: A multilayer compression support sleeve construction. The laminate material includes a thin polyurethane film coated on both surfaces with an adhesive. A stretchable elastomeric polymer material is bonded to each of the adhesive surfaces. A substantial portion of one of the elastomeric polymer surfaces is coated with a discontinuous layer of silicone microdots. The microdots are applied by gravure roll printing to project a uniform distance above the elastomeric polymer surface to form small tacky dots. The laminate material is fabricated into a sleeve with the material oriented so that the microdot coated face is adjacent the skin of the wearer. Microdots may be applied in a predetermined pattern in order to impart enhanced compression to certain areas of the support sleeve. The resulting support sleeve retains its breathability while presenting a nonslip inner surface which prevents migration of the garment on the skin of the wearer during exercise. The garment does not cause irritation to the underlying skin.

20 Dec 2000TL;DR: In this article, a cutting tool assembly including a wear protection sleeve that is fixed in the cavity of a bit holder by a tapered wedge portion that is compressed in a correspondingly tapered portion of the bit holder cavity and an accompanying retainer is described.
Abstract: A cutting tool assembly including a protective wear sleeve that is fixed in the cavity of a bit holder by a tapered wedge portion that is compressed in a correspondingly tapered portion of the bit holder cavity and an accompanying retainer both combine affix the wear sleeve to the bit holder cavity in a secure manner. The applicant's protective wear sleeve invention can be set in the bit holder by several axial blows with a hammer or other appropriate tool. Unlike some other designs in the prior art which require the insertion of a pin or nut threaded onto a bolt or clip connected to the rear end of the cutting to secure the wear protection sleeve to the bit holder in the invention no other assembly step is necessary to secure the protective sleeve inside the bit holder cavity. The protective sleeve will remain in this position with no relative axial movement or rotation between the wear sleeve and the bit holder during operation of the cutting tool machinery.
