Abstract
The present invention is directed to a ram guard, which is attached to a stabilizer arm having an exposed hydraulic ram, having an outside surface which has a linear length greater than the length of the rod when fully extended. More specifically, the ram guard of the present invention comprising an outside surface attached to a stabilizer arm which has a linear length greater than the length of the piston rod of the ram, an upper surface to cover the exposed piston rod, and an end surface which attaches to the piece of the stabilizer arm to which the piston rod is attached.
Claims2
A guard for an exposed piston rod which is attached to a stabilizer arm of an earth mover ..which comprises.!. said stabilizer arm having end pieces with a flat surface, said guard comprising :
- a plate which is rigidly and non-pivotably attached to said stabilizer arm and ..extending.!. extends along and above the outside surface of said stabilizer arm adjacent to the exposed piston rod, said plate being a flat plate having a linear length generally greater than the length of the exposed piston rod and less than the length of the piston plus the fully exposed piston rod;
- a second plate extending from said first plate which extends over the piston rod to cover the exposed piston rod;
- and
- a third plate attached to said second plate which ..attaches to.!. g extends over the flat surfaces of the end pieces of the stabilizer arm to which the piston rod is attached.
A guard for an exposed piston rod which is attached to a stabilizer arm of an earth mover, said stabilizer arm having end pieces with a flat surface, said guard comprising:
- a first portion which is rigid and non-pivotably attached to said stabilizer arm and extending along and above the outside surface of said stabilizer arm adjacent to the exposed piston rod, said first portion having a linear length generally greater than the length of the exposed piston rod and less than the length of the piston plus the fully exposed piston rod;
- a second portion extending from said first portion which extends over the piston rod to cover the exposed piston rod;
- and
- a third portion attached to said second portion which ..attaches to.!. extends over the flat surfaces of the end pieces of the stabilizer arm to which the piston rod is attached.
