APPARATUS FOR PREVENTING SEPARATION OF A DOWN-HOLE MOTOR FROM A DRILL STRING ABSTRACT An apparatus is disclosed for use in a drill string 10 to prevent separation of a lower tubular member 16 from an upper tubular member 15 by a rotational force applied from a down-hole motor 22. The down-hole motor 22 is rotated by drilling fluid pumped from the surface, through a passage formed within the drill string 10, and into the down-hole motor 22. A valve 36 is positioned in the passage in the drill string 10 and has a first operating position adapted for passing the drilling fluid to the down-hole motor 22, and a second operating position adapted for substantially blocking the drilling fluid from being delivered through the down-hole motor 22. The valve is of a two piece construction, having a first body 44 connected to an upper tubular section 14 and a second body 46 connected to the down-hole motor 22. Thus, longitudinal movement between the upper tubular section 14 and the down-hole motor 22, which is a result of rotation of the lower tubular section 16 by the motor 22, causes corresponding longitudinal movement of the first and second bodies 44, 46 between the first and second operating positions.
