75 in alignment with slot portion 77 when the realignment occurs the end 17 39 of body 30 will reengage the end 35 of the plunger means 45 due to the force of spring 38 as the end 17 39 moves towards the end 35 of the plunger the pin 75 will be moved upwardly in closed end slot portion 77 to reassume the position shown in fig2 of the drawings this will maintain axial alignment of the primary arm of the shifting tool means 60 with the plunger means 45 as continued upward movement of the present invention through the well string is effected as the tool 25 is continued to be moved up in the tubing string the enlargement 64a on the secondary arm 64 engages the tubing at its juncture with the mandrel 11 and this forces the secondary arm 64 to also axially align with the primary arm 62 so that the ball 82 then reengages in detent 86 and is thus locked in axial position for removal from the well bore from the foregoing invention it can be seen that the present arrangement enables the valve handling apparatus forming part of the present invention to remain locked axially so that it can be lowered through the tubing string with a minimum of effort and then positioned adjacent a mandrel 11 as the tool is actuated as described hereinabove it will be locked in alignment with the valve receiving section 22 in the side pocket 15 of the mandrel 11 to enable a valve to be deposited therein by means well known in the art thereafter the present invention is manipulated as described hereinabove so that it relocks in axial alignment to enable it to be withdrawn from the.
