    Abstract: An apparatus and method for installing casing into a wellbore is provided. The apparatus includes a piston assembly which is engagable with a casing string to be installed into a wellbore. The piston assembly works in conjunction with a previously installed section of casing in the wellbore to create a hydraulic piston system to aid in the installation of the casing string to which the piston assembly is attached into a wellbore.

  • Patent number: 6425268
    Abstract: A body piercing jewelry substitute 10 includes a body 20 having an internal cavity 30. A rim 22 frames the opening 23 to the internal cavity. The rim is positioned on a damp body surface, such as moistened skin or the user's tongue. By creating an area 500 of reduced pressure around the body 20, air is removed from the internal cavity 30, lowering the pressure within the body 20. Where the body piercing jewelry substitute is applied to the tongue, the area of reduced pressure may be created by sucking orally. Where the body piercing jewelry substitute is located on the cheek for example, the reduced pressure may be created by use of a suction cup. When pressure is restored to normal levels around the body, the rim adheres to the damp body surface due to the partial vacuum within the internal cavity. The body piercing jewelry substitute may then moved to a different location by sliding it on the damp body surface.
