Abstract
A safety device for maintaining a load raised cylinder linkage in selected extended position. A combination cylinder engagement rod and locking sleeve with a piston rod engagement channel that will adjustably secure and extended piston rod from a cylinder assembly in a safe secure locked extended position. The cylinder safety stop of the invention is interposed between the cylinder sleeve and the piston end block by the incrementally adjustable engagement panel's positioning via removably positioned stop adjustment pin. An intermediate incrementally adjustable fitting provides for positioning between multiple aligned stop pin engagement apertures.
Claims6
A hydraulic piston and cylinder safety stop for selectively securing a piston rod in extended position from a cylinder body comprises,
- an elongated apertured channel receivable around the cylinder body of the piston and cylinder and secured to a piston rod end block, said apertured channel having oppositely disposed spaced parallel sidewalls, a plurality of longitudinally spaced and transversely aligned apertures in said sidewalls,
- a locking sleeve secured on the free end of said cylinder body,
- a stop pin selectively secured through said aligned apertured channels in spaced relation to said piston rod end block, and
- an adjustment element on and extending from said locking sleeve for selectively positioning said stop pin engagement position in spaced relation to said locking sleeve.
An elongated safety stop device for use with an extensible hydraulic piston and cylinder having a cylindrical body and a piston rod, said safety stop device comprising,
- an elongated apertured channel movable on said hydraulic cylinder body engageable and secured to a piston rod end block on said piston rod, a sleeve fitting secured on the cylindrical body, a stop pin removably positioned through aligned apertures in said elongated apertured channel for engagement with said sleeve fitting, and
- an adjustment element extending from said sleeve fitting selectively engaged by the stop pin.
