Abstract: A downhole control tool (20) comprises a first sleeve (22) defining a first profile (28), a second sleeve (24) axially and rotatably movable relative to the first sleeve (22) and defining a second profile (30) for selectively engaging the first profile (28), and a third sleeve (26) axially movable relative to the first sleeve (22) and defining a third profile (36) for selectively engaging the second profile (30). The profiles are engaged and disengaged by axial reciprocal movement of the third sleeve (26). The profiles are arranged such that on the second profile (30) engaging the first profile (28) and the second profile (30) engaging the third profile (36), the second sleeve (24) is rotated relative to the first sleeve (22). Thus, the tool (20) provides an arrangement which converts a reciprocal movement into a rotary movement.
