ABSTRACT:
An air-cooled-engine screen (1) is sized and shaped to cover airflow entrances (2) to engines of engine-powered equipment and tools such as chain saws (4). Strands of the screen are designedly strong, fine and spaced apart to allow passage of sufficient air between them to cool the engines while preventing passage of fine particles and/or fibers that are gooey, gummy, resinous or sappy wet and would solidify or gum onto cooling fins and nearby engine parts such as spark-plug connections and cooling-air outlets when being used. Cleaning is facilitated by minimizing screen-surface obstruction. Select attachment means (8, 9, 10, 11 12) are provided for original equipment, for after-market add-on and for various long-term or temporary use conditions.
