See full text

A remotely releasable pipe connector is described and comprises a first tubular connector or 'pin connector' having at least one laterally extending locking member, and a slotted second tubular connector or 'box connector' cooperatively disposable over the first tubular connector with the slots thereof removably engaging the first tubulars connector's locking members. One or more shear plates are attachable to the second tubular connector and are positioned to prevent the release of the locking members from the slots in the second tubular connector until the shear plates are subjected to a force greater than or equal to a predetermined force.
