Patent attributes
A plumber protector is provided. The plumber protector is for supporting a pre-existing shaft by interconnecting the pre-existing shaft to a supporting surface. The plumber protector may include a collar body having sidewalls, a rear surface and a front surface, wherein the collar body forms a collar cutout adapted to accommodate the pre-existing shaft, and wherein the collar cutout extends to near a geometric center of the collar body. The sidewalls may provide a plurality of radial threaded apertures communicating with the collar cutout. The front surface may provide a plurality of fastener holes, each fastener hole communicating the front surface and the rear surface. The plumber protector may include a cover that sheaths the collar. The cover may include a cover cutout substantially similar to the collar cutout so that when the collar and the cover are operably engaged, the collar cutout and cover cutout define a shaft opening about the pre-existing shaft.
