Cherry Attorney-Burton and Parker ABSTRACT: A grappling device, including a generally cylindrical body member, an annular grappling sleeve telescopically received over the body member, and a nut member rotatably secured to the body member threadably receiving the grappling sleeve. The sleeve includes a plurality of resilient grappling fingers extending beyond the body member opposite the nut member. The fingers are tapered inwardly, toward the axis of the sleeve, to resiliently engage the body member.
GRAPPLING DEVICE DESCRIPTION OF THE PRIOR ART The grappling means shown by the prior art generally include a jackscrew member adapted to spread the grappling fingers of the device. Alternately, the grappling fingers are biased inwardly by a threaded sleeve. The jackscrew assembly however requires a number of component parts, and its is an object of the grappling means of this invention to simplify the former type of grappling device by eliminating the jackscrew member, and reduce the number of component parts. Examples of the grappling devices shown by the prior art include the following U.S. Pat. Nos. 2,050,005, 2,380,980, 2,6143 l 8.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION the grappling device of this invention includes a generally cylindrical body member, an annular grappling sleeve member telescopically received over the body member having a grappling end portion, and a threaded member rotatably secured to the body member threadably receiving the grappling sleeve member opposite the grappling end portion. The grappling end portion of the sleeve includes a plurality of resilient grappling fingers extending beyond the body member and tapering toward the axis of the sleeve member to resiliently engage the body member. The threaded member is thus rotatable on the body member to telescopically retract the sleeve member, toward the threaded member, to resiliently bias the grappling fingers radially outwardly.
The body portion of the disclosed embodiment includes a tapered bearing portion resiliently biasing the grappling fingers radially outwardly, and may include an axial opening adapted to receive a shaft or the like.
The grappling fingers in the preferred embodiment are defined by a plurality of slots extending through the grappling end portion of the sleeve. The fingers terminate in radially extending portions adapted to receive an encircling device, such as a sealing ring or the like. In the preferred embodiment of the grappling device of this invention, however, the diameter of the grappling fingers at the radially outwardly extending portions is equal to or less than the diameter of the sleeve portion, to permit receipt of the grappling device in a restricted opening.
In the disclosed embodiment of the invention, the threaded member is an internally threaded nut, and the grappling sleeve member is externally threaded. The nut includes an annular internally threaded sleeve portion, spaced from the body member, which threadably receives the grappling sleeve, and a radially inwardly extending bearing portion rotatably secured to the body portion. The bearing portion abuts a shoulder provided on the body portion to prevent forward axial movement of the threaded nut, and a locking ring or the like may be provided to prevent rearward movement.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWING FIG. 1 is a side cross-sectional view of the grappling device of this invention;
FIG. 2 is a side cross-sectional view of the embodiment shown in FIG. I, with the grappling fingers expanded; and
FIG. 3 is an end view of the grappling device shown in FIGS. 1 and 2.
DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENT the disclosed embodiment of the grappling device includes a generally cylindrical body member 20, an annular grappling sleeve 22 telescopically received over the body member, and a threaded driver member or nut 24. The grappling sleeve has an expandable grappling end portion 26 including a plurality of grappling fingers 28 defined by slots 30 through the end of the grappling portion. The grappling fingers taper inwardly, toward the axis of the annular sleeve 22, to resiliently engage the body portion.
In this embodiment of the grappling device, the work entering end 32 of the body portion is also tapered toward the axis, and is provided with a bearing surface 34 engaging the inner surface of the grappling fingers 28. The distal ends of the fingers are provided with hooks," or radially outwardly extending portions 36 adapted to receive an encircling member, as described hereinbelow.
The threaded member or nut 24 includes a radially inwardly extending bearing portion 38 rotatably secured to the body portion 20, and an annular sleeve portion 40 overlying the body portion in spaced relation thereto. The sleeve portion of the nut is internally threaded at 42 to threadably receive the externally threaded end 44 of the grappling sleeve. The nut in this embodiment is secured against axial movement relative to the body member by an annular shoulder 46 on the body member and a conventional snapring 48, or the like, received in an annular groove 50. Rotation of the nut on the body member thereby threadably extends or retracts the grappling sleeve relative to the body member.
Retraction of the sleeve 22, by rotation of the nut 24, biases the grappling fingers 28 against the bearing surface 34 of the body member, resiliently expanding the fingers radially outwardly. Conversely, extension of the sleeve 20 permits the fingers to return to their normal or unbiased position. FIG. 1 shows the grappling sleeve in the extended position, with the grappling fingers in their normal position, and FIG. 2 shows the grappling sleeve retracted, with the fingers biased radially outwardly.
The operation of the grappling device of this invention will depend upon whether the device is intended to secure a relatively internal or external device. In this embodiment, the grappling sleeve is initially extended, as shown in FIG. 1. The grappling end portion 26 is then received within the work 54, such as an aperture or port having a sealing ring, or the like,
' shown in phantom at 52. The grappling fingers are then expanded radially outwardly, by reverse rotation of the nut 24, to engage the ring as shown in FIG. 2. The ring may then be withdrawn by removing the grappling device from the port.
The body portion 20, in this embodiment of the grappling device, has an axial opening 56 which permits removal of a sealing ring or the like from a shaft. The shaft is received in the aperture 56, and the opening 58 may be tapered to guide the shaft into the opening. It will be understood by those skilled in the art that the components of the grappling device of this invention may be formed from various materials, including various metal alloys and plastics. The grappling sleeve is preferably formed form a resilient fatigue resistant material, including various steel alloys and certain plastics.
