Fluid flow actuated tool

A fluid flow actuated tool, comprising:

• a housing comprising a housing interior, said housing interior receiving a flow of fluid;
• a shaft;
• and
• an actuating mechanism comprising a fluid wheel structure, said fluid wheel structure being connected to said shaft, at least a portion of said fluid wheel structure being arranged in said flow of fluid for rotating said fluid wheel structure, wherein said shaft is actuated based on rotation of said fluid wheel structure, said fluid wheel structure comprising at least one fluid engaging structure, said at least one fluid engaging structure comprising a planar fluid engaging surface configured to engage said flow of fluid such that a portion of said flow of fluid is directed in a first direction, said planar fluid engaging surface comprising a planar fluid engaging surface first end and a planar fluid engaging surface second end, said planar fluid engaging surface second end being located adjacent to the fluid wheel structure, said at least one fluid engaging structure comprising a fluid diverting structure for directing said fluid in another direction, said fluid diverting structure comprising a fluid diverting structure planar surface, a first fluid diverting structure portion and a second fluid diverting structure portion, said fluid diverting structure planar surface extending from a position adjacent to the fluid wheel structure to said planar fluid engaging surface second end, said first fluid diverting structure portion and said second fluid diverting structure portion extending along said fluid diverting structure planar surface.

A fluid flow tool actuating device, comprising:

• a fluid wheel structure configured to be connected to a shaft, said fluid wheel structure comprising a plurality of fluid engaging structures, each of said fluid engaging structures comprising a fluid diverting structure and a planar fluid engaging surface configured to engage a flow of fluid to provide a deflected flow of fluid, said planar fluid engaging surface comprising a planar fluid engaging surface first end and a planar fluid engaging surface second end, said planar fluid engaging surface first end being located adjacent to an outer periphery of said fluid wheel structure, wherein said fluid diverting structure comprises a fluid diverting structure planar surface, a first fluid diverting structure portion and a second fluid diverting structure portion, said fluid diverting structure planar surface extending from a position adjacent to said outer periphery of said fluid wheel structure to said planar fluid engaging surface second end, said first fluid diverting structure portion and said second fluid diverting structure portion extending along said fluid diverting structure planar surface, said fluid diverting structure of each of said fluid engaging structures facing in a first circumferential direction of said fluid wheel structure, said fluid engaging surface of each of said fluid engaging structures facing in another circumferential direction of said fluid wheel structure.
