 F16P 1/00 - 
F16P 3/00
Devices protecting or preventing injuries to people
P:20 F16P 1/00

·  Screens or hoods rotating with rotary shafts
 F16P 1/06
·  specially designed for welding
P:10 F16P 3/00
Safety devices acting in conjunction with the control or operation of a machine; Control arrangements requiring the simultaneous use of two or more parts of the body (F16P 5/00 takes precedence)
 F16P 3/02
·  Screens or other safety members moving in synchronism with members which move to and fro
 F16P 3/04
