Patent attributes
The present invention discloses a pressurized gas canister transport apparatus and a method of use. The apparatus includes a frame that is specially configured to carry a plurality of generally cylindrically shaped pressurized gas canisters. The frame features upper and lower panels that are connected to a central panel, the central panel providing structural reinforcement and also separating selected canisters from one another, such as oxygen canisters from canisters containing combustible materials. A clamping arrangement is provided for safely holding the canisters in position. In addition, should the canisters become dislodged from their clamps, an additional safety arrangement is provided in the form of railings that are transversely extending and which span between corner columns of the frame to prevent escape of canisters even if they become dislodged from their clamps.
