Well Christmas tree guard apparatus

Abstract: An oil or gas well Christmas tree guard apparatus provides an annular guard body which is protectively secured about a bolted flanged connection of the well Christmas tree, the guard so placed forming an envelope about the flanged connection and preventing access by a thief to the bolts and thus discouraging removal of the bolts from the bolted connection. The protective guard body thus prevents removal of the Christmas tree from its location at the well head by theft denying access to the bolted connection which flanges the Christmas tree to the remainder of the well. In the preferred embodiment the guard body provides a pair of annular shroud halves which are hingedly connected allowing them to be pivotally moved from an outer position allowing removal from the flanged connection to an inner closed operative position providing an overall annular guard body which is latched into position about the desired bolted connection. The guard body hinge as well as the latch structure can be protectively covered by a connected shroud or housing about the latch structure, or the hinge respectively.

Guard for compressed air fitting bowl

Abstract: A bowl guard for mounting, containing and protecting a plastic or glass bowl of a compressed air system device. The bowl guard holds, protects and retains an opaque, transparent or translucent bowl such as a bowl which encloses a filter or lubricator device. The bowl guard is secured to a header of the device and locks the bowl in a sealed relationship with the header. The guard may have apertures so that the contents of the bowl may be observed. A drain through the bowl and guard can be provided when appropriate. A locking pin on the bowl guard insures that the entire assembly is held in alignment. When the bowl guard is latched into place and the system is under pressure the guard may not easily be withdrawn.

Fishing rod tip guard

Abstract: A fishing rod tip guard comprising a plastic case with a hinged top into which the tip is placed in an interior slot and the top closed and fastened. The slot prevents the guard from slipping off the tip. There is also room in the guard for the hook or lures that are attached to the line. A modification of the guard makes it useful as a bobber also.

Guarded razor blade

Abstract: GUARDED RAZOR BLADE ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE A razor blade having guard elements deposited in recessed guard seats formed in the cutting edge and flanking surfaces of the blade. The guard elements may be deposited by electrochemical plating and their retention on the blade is enhanced by the reces-sed seats formed in the blade surfaces. The guard seats extend rearwardly from the blade edge a significant distance and may be interconnected by a transversely extending locking guard seat into which guard element material is also deposited. A method for applying the guard elements to the blade comprises applying a photoresist material to the blade edge and adjacent region, fixing a photographic image on the photoresist material in accor-dance with a predetermined guard element pattern, removing a portion of the photoresist material in accordance with the pattern and etching the underlying blade to form the guard seats. There-after the guard elements are deposited in the guard seats as by electroplating and the remaining photoresist material is removed to expose the blade edge and guard elements.

Releasable window guard

Abstract: A window guard assembly has features that allow it to be released from the inside to allow occupants to escape in case of fire. The window guard assembly also has features that prevent the locking mechanism from being actuated by an intruder on the outside of the building. The guard assembly has a guard mounted to a window frame for covering a window. The guard is pivotally mounted, and a locking mechanism selectively prevents the pivoting of the guard. A latch member controls the locking mechanism. An enclosure is formed around the latch member to prevent access from the exterior. The enclosure has an opening that faces the interior. A pair of doors are located at the opening, one with a vertical hinge, and the other with a horizontal hinge. Both of these doors require opening to reach the latch member. When opened, the doors form a barrier in cooperation with the window frame that requires the intruder to attempt to reach around the doors in order to reach the latch member.

Safety device for press

Abstract: The invention is related to a safety device for a press machine or the like. The safety device includes a first guard plate which slidably extends over the machine access area and is powered by an air cylinder having a movable rod connected to a movable arm of the first guard plate. The device also has a second guard plate slidably attached to the first guard plate which has a switch means for deactivating the air cylinder and therefore stopping the forward motion of the first guard plate whenever the second guard plate exhibits movement toward said first guard plate. For example, when a user's hand is in the access area and the second guard plate strikes the hand thereby slidably moving the second guard plate toward the first, the safety device is deactivated and the guard plates move away from the machine access area.

Adjustable guard rail structures

Abstract: An adjustable guard rail assembly is provided for use with a running rail and is made up of a plurality of spaced base plates having one end extending beneath the running rail, brace means fixed to each base plate adjacent the other end, a guard rail supported on said spaced base plates and abutting said braces, fastening means extending through said brace and guard rail and interchangeable spacer means on said fastening means interchangeable from one side of the guard rail to the other whereby the position of said guard rail with respect to the brace may be changed.

Pistol receiver actuating mechanism

Abstract: An improved trigger guard for a pistol having trigger guard actuated means has an upwardly and rearwardly extending, elongated lever member which facilitates manual actuation of the trigger guard for opening the breech and setting the trigger mechanism and safety.

Security door guard

Abstract: The door guard exerts pressure against a door knob and a closed door thereby preventing the door from being opened or the door knob from being rotated. Tremendous pressure can be exerted against a door by the door guard because its upper member and lower member may pivot about each other which permits the placing of the upper end of the top member on the door knob and the lower end of the bottom member on the floor at a point closer to the door than would be possible if the guard had just one member or did not have pivotable members.

Road guard belt

Abstract: A road guard belt comprising a hollow belt-shaped body composed of an inflatable portion molded into one integral belt and a adapted to be inflated into an elongated tubular body by introducing fluid through a throttle hole therein. The hollow belt-shaped body is fitted to a road wall side facing the driveway.

Overhead guard for lift truck

Abstract: An overhead guard in which the rear legs are connected to a lift truck such that when struck from the front side one or both legs pivot rearwardly out of the area of the driver's compartment so that the driver is protected from being pinned against a guard leg. The guards are positively secured in other directions so that they resist forces imposed from either side or from the rear of the guard.

Post for a guard rail

Abstract: A post for a guard rail used on a highway. Said post is made of an aluminum cast alloy, and is formed in an I-shape in a horizontal cross section, having a central web and front and rear flanges, and being wider at its lower portion. A mechanical neutral plane of the post along the widthwise direction thereof is formed in an S-shape, so as to provide sufficient plasticity and supporting ability to absorb an impact load of a vehicle and to protect a driver from injury.
