MODULAR DART LAUNCHER WITH STATUS INDICATOR

摘要

A dart launcher launches a dart by placing the dart within a launcher bore formed within a launcher body. The launcher body also defines a central bore coupled inline with a tubing string and in fluid communication with the launcher bore. The launcher bore is formed at an angle to the central bore. A release assembly is coupled to the launcher body and includes a release rod protruding into the launcher bore to selectively release the dart. A visual indicator assembly is coupled to the launcher body downstream from the release assembly and includes a flapper protruding into the launcher bore. The release assembly is actuated by the dart rotating the flapper to rotate an arm from a non-released position to a released position.
