Abstract: A downhole tool for sealing a well includes a push ring, a first slip ring located adjacent to the push ring, a first wedge located adjacent to the first slip ring and configured to radially push the first slip ring and separate the first slip ring into individual parts, and a sealing element located adjacent to the first wedge and configured to seal the well. An upstream end of the first slip ring and a downstream end of the push ring form a wavy interface when in contact. The wavy interface locks the first slip ring relative to the push ring to prevent a rotation of the first slip ring relative to the push ring.

Abstract: A setting kit for connecting a plug to a setting tool includes a collet connecting part configured to be attached to an internal sleeve of the setting tool; and a collet configured to be attached with a first end to the collet connecting part and with a second end to the plug. The second end automatically connects to the plug by only pushing the second end onto the plug.

Abstract: A quick connect device for connecting a plug to a setting tool includes a collet having a body and plural fingers; a first end of the collet is configured to be attached to a trapping mechanism associated with the setting tool; and a second end of the collet has the plural fingers, which are configured to be attached to the plug. The second end automatically connects to the plug by only pushing the second end onto the plug.

Abstract: A downhole tool for sealing a well includes a push ring; a first slip ring located adjacent to the push ring; a first wedge located adjacent to the first slip ring and configured to push the first slip ring and separate the first slip ring into parts; and a retaining mechanism configured to retain the first slip ring next to one of the push ring or the first wedge. The retaining mechanism is part of either (1) the first slip ring or (2) the one of the push ring or the first wedge, but not both.
