Abstract:
The present invention is directed to a hydraulic connector. In one illustrative embodiment, the hydraulic connector comprises a first end adapted to be coupled to a first component, a plurality of locking segments that, when actuated, are adapted to secure the first component to a second component, and a locking mandrel that, when actuated, is adapted to engage each of the plurality of locking segments at at least three discrete, spaced apart engagement areas.

Abstract:
A junction plate assembly for a subsea structure having a first junction plate with a plurality of control connections contained therein, a second junction plate with a second plurality of control connections contained therein, and a connector extending generally centrally of the first junction plate for engaging a receptacle of the second junction plate. The first junction plate has an umbilical cable connected to the control connections. The connector is a shaft which extends through the first junction plate and has one end extending into the receptacle of the second junction plate. The end of the shaft has an external acme thread in mating engagement with an internal acme thread of the receptacle. A handle is connected to an opposite end of the shaft for rotating the shaft. The control connections may be either hydraulic or electrical connections.

Abstract:
A connection is disclosed which is particularly applicable to subsea wellheads. A female receptacle end is provided on the wellhead which has connections on it to an umbilical or a flowline. The male end has an orientation lug for rough orientation. Once rough orientation is made, the male end is advanced into the female end and the shaft rotated by a remotely operated vehicle (ROV) for alignment of lugs with a detent. Once the lugs advance past the detent, they are rotated so that a segment of the shaft on the male end of the connection can no longer turn. Further rotational movements by the ROV on another portion of the shaft advances a plate which makes up the connection, either for the umbilical or the flowline.

Abstract:
The present invention provides for the connection of a pressure balanced stab and a manifold in which offsetting forces maintained on the stab allow it to remain in an inserted state within the manifold without the use of a significant amount of force to maintain the connection. The offsetting forces are contained within the stab through the use of C-ring seals on the stab, which are activated by a downward force created by an actuator. The compression of the C-rings is delayed until insertion is complete, therefore allowing an installation which does not damage the seals. The O-ring designs, used in prior pressure balanced stabs, are likely to be damaged upon insertion of the stab into the receptacle. The damage to the O-ring seals takes place when the O-ring, partially protruding from the stab, makes contact with the surface of the receptacle in such a manner that causes the O-ring seal to tear or become manipulated in a way that creates an ineffective seal. The preferred embodiment allows for activation of the C-ring seal to take place following insertion of the stab within the receptacle and therefore the C-ring does not encounter interference from the surface of the receptacle until it is activated.
