ABSTRACT:
The wiper apparatus of this invention is arranged to be located and to seat on top of the rotary head structures such as a Williams Connector or Shaffer blow-out preventor located on top of the casing. This apparatus wipes the mud from the surface of the pipe and, also, provides a catch basin to trap objects such as wrenches and the like which might fall through the casing were it not for this wiper structure. Additionally, this wiper structure provides for damping the vibration of the drill pipe string and assists the slips on the rotary table or rig derrick floor to grasp the drill pipe string and hold it in position while segments of such drill pipe string are added to or removed from the string.
