KICKER AND TRANSFER ASSEMBLY FOR A TUBULAR HANDLING SYSTEM

摘要

A tubular handling system (100) has a trough (102) with two exterior channels (108, 112) and an interior channel (110) disposed between the two exterior channels. The two exterior channels and the interior channel are disposed along a longitudinal length of the trough and are configured to support at least one tubular. The tubular handling system (100) also has a set of exterior kickers (104a, 104b) configured to move the tubular from one of the exterior channels (108, 112) to the interior channel (110) and from one of the exterior channels (108, 112) to a position out of the trough. The tubular handling system has an interior kicker (106a, 106b) configured to move the tubular from the interior channel (110) to one of the exterior channels (108, 112).
