Abstract
A tubular safety guard made of strong rigid material surrounds a rotating shaft in dispersion equipment to prevent inadvertent contact with the shaft. The guard is perforated substantially throughout its length so that the shaft is visible through the guard and so that the guard does not collect material in applications wherein the guard may be partially immersed such as in liquid mixing operations.
