ABSTRACT:
The present invention is a compressed gas cylinder carrier for retaining and transporting a plurality of such cylinders. The carrier includes a cage or framework having a base and top interconnected by a plurality of vertical bars. The base includes slide rails on which is slideably mounted a sled that can move between opposite ends of the carrier within the framework thereof. The sled has a base and a sidewall portion integral there with and extending upward there from. The sled base and sidewall form a cylinder retaining space. One carrier end has a hinged door for providing access to the interior of the carrier. A strap extends around the sled and is engaged through an adjustable buckle secured to the door. The top end of the carrier has a roof structure for forming a forklift receiving cavity. In operation, the present invention is sized to retain a plurality of compressed gas cylinders. The cylinders are placed and held within the interior of the framework wherein one cylinder rides on the sled being retained on the base thereof and the remaining cylinders rest on the slides of the framework base. Access to the frame interior is through the end door. When fully loaded, the sled is positioned at the end of the carrier opposite from the access door. The door can then be secured closed and the strap pulled through the buckle wherein the carrier is urged and held against the other cylinders, thereby pressing such cylinders against the secured access door. In this manner any space between the cylinders is taken up so that they are securely held together within the carrier framework.
