Apparatus for controlling a downhole device such as a choke, the apparatus comprising a housing (1), a mandrel (5) connected to the downhole device and moveable within the housing to move the device between different positions, and a detent mechanism to selectively lock the mandrel in one of the positions within the housing. The first and second positions are typically defined by physical stops on the apparatus such as shoulders, or dogs and grooves etc, and are typically placed at set positions that define the different configurations of the device. Thus, the movement of the downhole device is governed by the detent mechanism, rather than by variable factors such as pressure changes .

L'invention concerne un appareil permettant de commander un dispositif de fond de trou tel qu'une duse, l'appareil comprenant une cage, un mandrin relié au dispositif de fond de trou et mobile dans la cage afin de déplacer le dispositif entre différentes positions, ainsi qu'un mécanisme de détente permettant de verrouiller sélectivement le mandrin dans une des positions dans la cage. Les première et seconde positions sont généralement définies par des butées physiques sur l'appareil telles que des épaulements, ou des taquets et des rainures, etc, et sont généralement placées à des positions définies qui définissent les différentes configurations du dispositif. Ainsi, le mouvement du dispositif de fond de trou est gouverné par le mécanisme de détente, plutôt que par des facteurs variables tels que des changements de pression.
