Abstract
A safety collar, systems, and methods are provided. The safety collar includes an anchor for securing the safety collar to a pressurized container and a retention slot for retaining and anchoring one or more pressurized components to the anchor. The safety collar anchors the one or more pressurized components to the pressurized container when the one or more pressurized components are decoupled from the pressurized container without first depressurizing the pressurized container.
Claims20
A safety collar comprising:
- an elongated body extending from a first end to a second end;
- a first member extending from the first end, the first member extending perpendicularly to the elongated body;
- a second member extending from the second end, the second member extending perpendicularly to the elongated body;
- a retention slot formed in the first member, the retention slot operable to receive a first portion of a pressurized container;
- and
- a collar clamp formed in the second member, the clamp operable to receive a second portion of the pressurized container,
- wherein the retention slot anchors the first portion to the second portion when the first portion is decoupled from the second portion while pressurized.
A system comprising:
- a pressurized container having a solution reservoir and one or more pressurized components releasably attached to and extending from the solution reservoir;
- and
- a safety collar having a retention slot operable to receive at least a portion of the one or more pressurized components and an anchor operable to be anchored to the solution reservoir,
- wherein the retention slot anchors the one or more pressurized components to the solution reservoir when the pressurized container is decoupled from the solution reservoir while pressurized.
A method of decoupling one or more pressurized components from a solution reservoir of a pressurized container, the method comprising:
- decoupling the one or more pressurized components from the solution reservoir, the solution reservoir being pressurized;
- retaining the one or more pressurized components on the solution reservoir when the one or more pressurized components are decoupled from the solution reservoir by a safety collar, the safety collar having an anchor secured to the solution reservoir and a retention slot retaining the one or more pressurized components;
- and
- removing the safety collar from the pressurized container.
