Abstract: A fluid coupling includes various features. One feature is a disconnect tool that may expand a lock ring from engagement with a lock shoulder to permit the male half and female half to be separated. Another feature is to utilize geometry and structure whereby a leak would occur to indicate the condition of wear within the coupling while the coupling halves remain mechanically coupled. A further feature is to provide connection verification structure to assure that a complete connection of the male and female halves has been made. A still further feature is to provide an anti-rotational sleeve which would selectively prevent and permit relative rotation between the male half and the female half.

Abstract: A coupling assembly is disclosed that includes a first member and a second member having a receiving portion sized to receive the first member. A retaining formation is provided on one of the first and second members. The retaining formation includes a ramp and two or more grooves, wherein each groove is at least partially defined by converging surfaces. A locking member is moveably secured in a cavity in the other of the first and second members. The locking member is condfigured to be moved in a first radial direction by the ramp upon movement of the first member into the second member. The locking member is also biased in a second radial direction opposite the first radial direction into a groove in the retaining formation to become positioned between a converging surface on the retaining formation and the cavity upon further movement of the first member into the receiving portion of the second member, and may be progressively received in additional grooves on the retaining formation if the first member is further inserted into the second member.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for providing an expandable threaded connection between segments of expandable tubulars is disclosed. Threaded connections are machined into pre-expanded ends of tubulars. Once the threaded connections are machined into the pre-expanded ends, two joints of tubulars are connected using the threads, thus creating a pre-expanded threaded connection. After a tubular string is made up and lowered into a wellbore, the entire length of the string is expanded using known methods for expanding tubulars. During the downhole expansion operation, the pre-expanded threaded connections experience minimal expansion. The minimal downhole expansion of the pre-expanded threaded connections allows the threaded connections to maintain their sealing ability and coupling strength.

Abstract: A coupling assembly for connecting two members is provided that includes a first “male” member and a second “female” member. The first member includes a release sleeve moveably mounted thereon having a rigid release portion and a flexible sealing portion. The second member comprises at least one of an integral coupling member integrated into an apparatus, such as a pump, and an independent coupling member. Upon connection of the first and second members, the flexible sealing portion sealingly engages a mating surface on the second member to substantially inhibit the entry of contamination into an area between the first and second members when connected. The present invention provides an improved release sleeve that releases the male member from both an independent female member and an integral female member.

Abstract: A coupling assembly for connecting two members is provided that includes a first nullmalenull member and a second nullfemalenull member. The first member includes a release sleeve moveably mounted thereon having a rigid release portion and a flexible sealing portion. The second member is integrated into an apparatus, such as a pump, and includes a duct therethrough for receiving the first member. Upon connection of the first and second members, the flexible sealing portion sealingly engages a recessed seat portion of the second member to substantially inhibit the ingression of contaminates into the duct when the first and second members are connected. The foregoing coupling assembly is advantageous because it allows the second member to be formed directly into an apparatus. In other embodiments, the coupling assembly provides an improved release sleeve that releases the male member from both a conventional female member and an integral female member.

Abstract: A fitting assembly includes an indicator assembly that provides a visual indication of torque value to verify when the desired operational torque value is achieved. The fitting assembly includes a nut, and a visual indicator assembly positioned on the nut which has a plurality of visual indicators that provide a visual indication of a torque level being applied. A sleeve is attached to the nut and includes a window through which a portion of the visual indicators is visible based on the torque level being applied. A resilient member couples the sleeve to the nut. As the nut is rotated to apply torque to the nut, the resilient member biases the sleeve in a fixed position and the nut rotates relative to the sleeve, whereby the visual indicator assembly rotates relative to the sleeve to alter which portion of the visual indicator assembly is visible through the window to provide a visual indication of when the operational torque level is being applied. The fitting assembly includes a positive locking feature that interacts with a serrated portion of a nipple fluid connection to positively lock a position of the nut to prevent nut loosening.
