Abstract
This invention relates to a permanent whipstock assembly which uses camming pivot arms to secure the whipstock at the desired location within a cased wellbore. Camming pivot arms are pivotally attached to the downhole end of a whipstock housing and are further attached to a slip pad. Intentionally induced relative movement of the slip pad and the whipstock housing causes the camming pivot arms to pivot in such a manner that slip pad housing 4 and slip pad 5 are forced away from each other and cammed into the cased borehole. The invention relates specifically to a device that is particularly adapted to be lowered through a small diameter and later to be activated and set in a much larger casing or hole diameter.
