Abstract: A lockable overshot assembly for use in a wireline spearhead system for lowering and retrieving inner tube assemblies and other tools and equipment from a downhole location includes a pair of lifting dogs pivotally mounted to an overshot head on the lockable overshot assembly and configured for latching a spearhead. A locking arrangement is mounted into the elongated body and engagable within the lifting dogs, such that in a locked state the lifting dogs are in latched position and in an unlocked state, allows the lifting dogs to move to the release position. The locking arrangement is a pin, which can be moved laterally to be between the latching dogs to prevent them moving to the release position.

Abstract: A milling tool has a basic body rotatable about a center axis, and including an outside, which includes a pair of opposite front and back sides, as well as a peripheral envelope surface. The body is equipped with a plurality of replaceable cutting inserts. The basic body includes an inner hollow space having an internal limiting surface, in which there collectively mouth a plurality of bores. The bores also mouth in the outside. Each cutting insert is mounted on an outer end of an ejector, which is rectilinearly movable in the individual bore and has an inner end accessible from the hollow space, and which interacts with a compressible force generator, to pull the same into the bore. By mounting the cutting inserts on ejectors, which simultaneously are accessible from a common hollow space, the cutting inserts can be replaced fast and easily, and possibly also be indexed.

Abstract: A power skiving tool includes a basic body, which is equipped with a plurality of replaceable cutting inserts, by means of which chips can be carved or peeled out of a workpiece with the purpose of forming, for instance, teeth.
