Extraction press assembly for use with bored structures

An extraction system for facilitating removal of an object from a bore of a structure, the extraction system comprising:

• an extraction press assembly comprising:
• a coupling mount configured to couple to the structure;
• a base plate axially spaced from the coupling mount, and supporting a press mount;
• a support structure having axial extensions coupling the coupling mount to the base plate;
• and
• a press supported between the coupling mount and the base plate, the press having a press base rotatably coupled to a press mount to pivotally mount the press to the base plate;
• and
• an extraction pole assembly comprising a plurality of extraction poles, wherein the extraction pole assembly is configured to receive an axial force from the press of the extraction press assembly.

A method for removing an object from a bore of a structure, the method comprising:

• inserting an extraction pole assembly into the bore of the structure until the extraction pole assembly contacts the object to be removed from the bore;
• coupling an extraction press assembly to the structure at an opening of the bore;
• moving a press of the extraction press assembly to position a press surface near the extraction pole assembly;
• actuating the press to apply a force to the extraction pole assembly to dislodge the object;
• and
• rotating the press surface away from the bore to provide access to the extraction pole assembly.
